The State of Florida vs George Zimmerman: The Trial

An AK is less accurate than an M-14,
with no telescopic sights involved. Thay were not built to be
sniper 's guns. M-14s can be superbly accurate.

M-16 has the recoil u 'd expect from a Mattel toy
that u give a very young child for Christmas.
( Remember: an M-16 is a .22 caliber rifle. )

Everyone might have been better off just not trying to do burst-fire in a common field rifle. If they'd been satisfied with semi-auto-only, they could have stuck with the .308 NATO.

Yes. The .308 NATO is much better than the AK round.
The Soviets greatly reduced the velocity of their AK rounds in a bid to tame full-auto recoil.

Though I still think they made the .308 NATO a bit too strong.

Yes to me burst or auto fire is a waste but I would have a man or two in a squad with an updated BAR in case you find you need to put a lot of very heavy fire down range or reach out to someone at a greater range then 300 yards for that matter.

The 03 bolt action Springfield was used by the US as a sniper rifle
until around 1964, about the time when the US was replacing the M-14
with the M-16 as the standard infantry weapon.

BTW in the movie 'Saving Private Ryan' one of the squad was seen
carrying a Springfield which would have historically accurate.

Rap

An M-14 is a tricked out .30-06 M-1 Garand.
A lot of guys were happy with the easier recoil.

THEY were indiscriminate in who they targeted but left all their victims feeling scared and vulnerable.

Andrew Wooff and Richard Vincent broke into homes across Southampton in the dead of night while families, couples and in one case an elderly great-grandmother lay sleeping.

The creeper-style burglaries left their victims traumatised, fearful and even afraid to sleep in their own beds months after the break-ins were committed.

Not only did he not care, but Wooff was even happy to pose Rambo-style with weapons he stole during one break-in – revelling in the notoriety of his crimes.

My local paper printed this picture on the front page today, it puts me in mind of Romeo's pictures.

It says a lot about the sort of people
who post these types of photographs.

We all posed with revolvers, pistols,
and submachineguns. It was a lot of fun.

Thank God for public-spirited citizens like George Zimmerman in Neighbourhood Watches
and Citizens Patrols who put themselves in harms way to protect us from mobs such as this..

There's the difference, you were on a day out with friends, and did not hide your faces.
Your intention wasn't to menace.

I think its the sign of the devil; the two fingers represent his horns.
