WT: Florida Rep. Alan Grayson used the aftermath of Sunday’s Islamic terror attack to claim AR-15 semi-automatic rifles can fire 700 rounds per minute.
Security guard Omar Mateen killed 49 people and wounded over 50 others during an attack on a gay nightclub — the worst mass shooting in U.S. history. Mr. Grayson, a Democrat, was asked about the massacre and soon turned his attention to the AR-15 rifle.
“If [Mr. Mateen] was not able to buy a weapon that shoots off 700 rounds in a minute, a lot of those people would still be alive,” the congressman said. MORE
[Have your paper and pencil ready. lol]
They do.
In the movies, and this asshole’s ‘mass of tissue’ that he tries to reason with, but he’s going to get a lip cramp trying to say ‘Pew-pew-pew’ that fast.
It wasn’t even an AR-15, that is one stupid caveman.
His stupidity never takes a break. Perpetual and all encompassing
What’s more disturbing is he cites three or four people as if that’s acceptable. A glock fires the same speed as an AR-15, one pull, one shot.
“Conrad Close, the conservative editor in chief of American Crossroads, then offered $50,000 to the charity of Mr. Grayson’s choice if he accomplish the feat, the Blaze reported Monday.”
Mr Close then demonstrates the math, showing how un-possible it is to accomplish firing 700 rounds per minute through a standard semi-automatic (one trigger pull = one boolit fired) AR15.
Really, a sucker bet, nothing else but. It can never be accomplished. And Mr Grayson will never take him up on it, so Mr Close’s money is safe in the bank.
This story needs to be spread far and wide, especially within Mr Grayson’s district, so he can be mocked and laughed at.
He must be confusing an AR-15 with a mini gun. What a dumbass! Last time I checked the bad guys weren’t using extremely rapid firing Gatling style weapons on us, at least not yet. Tt was a jihadi muzzie who started this you dickhead and not guns or Christians or Jews or the NRA etc.
It was a … have to learn to type slower and check my spelling, sorry.
Facts don’t matter.
Only the narrative matters.
Totalitarianism cannot succeed without disarming the population.
Grayson knows that. As does his sycophantic interviewer.
He lies for the simple reason that the facts are against him.
Same as Clinton.
Same as Sanders.
Same as Washerwoman-Schlutz.
Same as Warren.
Same as Obola.

So what this moron claims is humanly impossible. 11.6 pulls of the trigger every second. Maybe this number is when he’s jacking off to Hillary’s picture.
He is partly correct if you have $15k+ to spend on an auto sear and related licensing.
M16 specs:
12–15 rounds/min sustained
45–60 rounds/min semi-automatic
700–950 rounds/min cyclic
However, I recently shot a friend’s AR with slide-fire and it will dump a 30rd magazine fairly quickly. No sear needed, ATF approved and not very reliable.
And Preezy Boy said Omar Mateen had a “Glock which had a lot of clips in it.”

I wonder if he read that it was NOT the cops that stopped the slaughter, but two CCW customers and an off duty cop that forced the f^&^&ing coward to hide in the bathroom
With a GAT trigger you could probably achieve a rate of 700 rounds per minute, but you would spend more time changing magazines that shooting.
I don’t think A 130 gunship can do 700 rounds per minute.
With that kind of firepower, I could tip over the Island of Guam!
Fucktard Grayson lies every time he opens his mouth. The weapon used by the Filthy Moslem Savage was a Sig Sauer CMX. None of it’s parts are interchangeable with an AR-15.
Man I was knee deep in idiots last night on FB. Liberals don’t want to be bothered with the truth.
I’ll take molten metal for $1000, Alex.
What is a GAT trigger?
Was NOT an AR15

But, at this point, what difference does it make?
Moe, it’s like a crank that activates the trigger when rotated.
FWIW – I’ve never used the GAT but have bump fired. The Slide-Fire appears to shoot faster than the GAT. Sounds pretty much like full auto.
This one might be able to fire at the rate of 700 rpm but for how long? And good luck purchasing one, citizen.

A lot of stuff is difficult to purchase.
That is why there are mills and lathes.
A10 up to 1800 rpm.

They built the plane around this gun.
Newer a130 can do 2000 rpm.

I can easily get 700 rpm out of my 9. Easily. I hold it sideways and just hold the trigger down.
