I closed a deal on an American 180 and it looks totally bad-ass, as well as entirely useless.

While reading up on this weapon, I've seen that you're not supposed to do bursts, but rather do mag dumps as it strains some parts. Is that true?

Also do the mags have to be fully-loaded to function properly, or can I shoot it with partially loaded mags?

And finally, though the gun will come with a stash of spare parts, is there some I should stock up on? I plan on shooting this gun a lot, so I'll probably break more than a few things.
