5 inch Guns
« on: December 26, 2004, 04:43:26 PM »
Dear HTC

A belated Xmas request

I don't like to use the 5 inchers because they just seem too small  (wife agrees),  and the 8 inchers  , well they're  just for braggers and liars.  

Any chance of  making the 5 inchers a little bigger ? say 6 (or 6 1/2 on a good day)

Just tell her the 5inchers have a higher ROF.  She could get the 8 inch variety but the round comes out just as quick and it takes longer to reload.....

It's not the size that counts - it's how you use it. I wouldn't know, but that's what they say.

Speaking of 5" guns.  The best thing about them is when you get into a fight with another guy. After a good fight you end up killing him and he jumps in the 5" and picks you off as you rtbing at 100ft off the water 5k away from the CV

Short and thick will do the trick but long and thin goes further in!
