It isn't murdervibes, it is a mix of disliking a lot of people and finding guns fascinating. And no, that isn't the same thing.

Holy Crap the M249(SAW) is famous for that. Fire too many rounds and next thing you know its stuck forward and you risk losing a finger trying to rip the belt off to stop the firing.
Nodaisho:
Really? I never heard any complaints about that. The firing pin issue is usually with older designs (the SKS especially), are you sure the guy in question didn't just keep firing with the same barrel too long, and start cooking them off from the barrel heat?
Aurjay:
you have a good point about firing a SAW at a cyclic rate possibly overheating and cooking the rounds. We never got told the reason this happens. So i looked up runaway M249 and found a PDF on it and it states the main causes for runaway is a worn trigger sear, but can also be a result of a dirty or worn gas system. Either way the whole concept of a runaway weapon always scared the shit outta me so i made sure to only fire at a sustainable rate and to keep my weapon cleaned as if being inspected at all times. BTW our Drill Sgt lil mnemonic device for remembering to fire for only 3-4 seconds was to say the phrase 'killing a family of four" in our head. Yeah fukd up but it stayed with me.

Man, the army is full of shit like that. One of my buddies served in the 101st and he was telling me all the sorts of marching jodies they had during infantry training that seemed specifically designed to encourage a murderous view.
p.s. Machine guns are fun the first time, but the reason I shoot is not to put a lot of rounds downrange, so they kind of got old fast.

While that is true, if the cops have any sense they simply ignore when people tell them what gun it is and just interpret the call as "the person saw a gun and is alarmed." It's like when I worked IT for a while; unless the person is someone I have previously experienced as knowledgeable about computers and/or they tell me in detail what's going on along with their diagnosis, I basically always just ignored their diagnosis and just came away from trouble reports thinking "their computer is not doing what they expect, I should go check what the issue is."
