18,000 rounds per second? How long until the barrel melts?

Didn't see it yet, does it have the 30 caliber clips?

Not fair. You changed the thread title from "fps" to "frames per second". Takes all the fun out of it.

Post by: freakazoid on February 22, 2014, 01:02:18 PM: Awesome. One thing I think is cool is the gas coming out of the piston on it's way back. Also how the piston kind of bounced back when it closes.
