Some will die in hot pursuit
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain

    Well.

    You learn something every day.

    Correct me if I am wrong, but was not the Mauser action that is used in most hunting rifles today designed as a weapon of war?

    This is most dire.

    Today I learned the AR-15 is more powerful than the M-16 AND the M-14!

    Come to find out all these years of lusting after an M-14 were all for nothing, as I've had something more powerful all along, and several times over. :lol:
