The Gun Counter

Social D rocks the tommyguns and pinstripe suits.

Cool. Nice use of period appropriate pieces, especially the '03 Springfield.

That is bloody awesome

If I could own one full auto, that would be it.

I also love how they actually LOOKED like they knew what they were doing. Did you notice how the G-Man didn't take the Springfield off his shoulder to work the bolt? It's the small details. This is so full of win...

Pretty sure that was an O3A3 Springfield. Did you notice the big aperture sight on the receiver?

It's not period correct for the 1930s.

At 2:50 the guy lets loose a burst and the gun never rises. Mine did times 10. We had two of them in the department before they got sold. I was fortunate enough to fire one on full auto. I think I was at least 45 degrees towards vertical if not more by the time the tenth round touched off. Not a significant amount of recoil but muzzle rise was extremely pronounced, at least for me. HK MP 5 was my standard on SWAT and was much more predictable.

Feds shoulda had Remington Model 8's with the 15rd magazine.

Figured we'd get to this on this forum.

No I didn't, as I don't have an '03 and never really studied it.

However, I think my point stands as that it wasn't an M-1 Carbine or modern bolt action off the rack at Wal-Mart. No Glocks, Rugers. Hi-Points or S&W autoloaders used, etc. I think they did a pretty good job of keeping everything as authentic as possible given they probably had a low budget. Which is why I said "period appropriate" rather than "period correct".

IOW, at least they tried which is more that any average music video (or even major Hollywood production) would do.

Before you get *too* busy fellating them, remember that Social D is just as much a bunch of unthinking reflexive Lefties as, say Green Day.
