23. Never use terms the Brady's coin...
...such as "spray firing." Its either semi-auto or full auto. No in betweens exist. What the Brady's ALWAYS try to do is use an ambiguous, inflammatory term; such terms include "pocket-rocket", "cop-killer bullets" and yes, "spray-firing".

Cop-killer bullets: Mind you not a SINGLE officer has ever been killed by a armor-piercing bullet fired from a pistol; these bullets are known as KTW's. Which are steel-core bullets with a Teflon coating. The Teflon is used to protect the barrel, not make it deadlier. What about rifles you ask? Just about EVERY rifle bullet cuts through street vests like butter.

Guess what, I can "spray-fire" a hunting rifle. I can "spray-fire" a hunting shotgun thats 60 years old. But using such a term promotes great headlines for anti-rights newspapers.

In addition, I just tried to hold a my Steyr AUG at the hip, and the pistol grip makes it VERY uncomfortable. Forcing me to raise the rifle to my shoulder.
