Why not try different ammo before you try a different gun?

It might not be. My job or part of it requires me to have a smg. But I do not have to provide anything.

Switch ammo. Americans like flying ash-trays (as one instructor called hollow point bullets) but the trouble with them is that not all guns like them as a steady diet.

We use 165 grain gold dots in our UMP 40's. No problems as far as I can tell. We run the same in our issue glocks.

This guy isn't even as funny as the original gecko, 4 one line posts. C'mon man you have gotta try a little harder than that.

Ripping off other people's 8-year-old jokes isn't funny.

I know Gecko45. I worked with Gecko45. You, sir, are no Gecko45.
