      his reply was based around the fact that according to him the rifle would jam and you'd have a 'stoppage' after putting three magazines through it, he attempted to get all 'superior' over the supposed knowledge he had and wouldn't take anybody else's replies or opinions right up till the point that I told him I used to be a skill at arms trained weapons instructor and I'd actually had live experience of firing the 'rifle' in a sustained fire role, for quite a long period of time..(good old days at the infantry school of training in Brecon).. he shut up rather quickly after that...
