(3,547 posts)31. speed of firing?
speed of firing is the same in basically all semi autos- they will fire as quick as you can pull the trigger
Any gun can be lethal- especially in the circumstances that most mass shootings occur (closed in area with few egresses). You can do considerable damage in a closed in space with "grandpas shotgun".
