HTRN, I would tell you that you are an evil fucker, but you probably get that a lot ~ Netpackrat
Describing what HTRN does as "antics" is like describing the wreck of the Titanic as "a minor boating incident" ~ First Shirt

Re: WHY DO I NEED A RIFLE?
You could easily substitute "Belt-fed" for "Rifle" in the above essay and it would read pretty much the same.
A belt-fed is a labor saving device. Three or four men and a belt-fed GPMG equal the firepower of 30 or 40 men with rifles -- Same bullet, same range, same firepower (and same ammo consumption).
Q: Why do you need a belt fed?
A: "Need" has got nothing to do with it!
