This can't be right, I emptied 29 rounds in about 20 seconds with a Savage(AR-15 style) rifle a couple of years ago in Vegas, the thing was light as a feather and very easy to shoot. I'm sure someone more use to it could get off far more as it fired as fast as I could pull the trigger. and didn't the Dayton shooter fire over 60 rounds in under 30 seconds?
