You movie afficionados may correct me on this, but I believe there is a scene in either Mel Gibson's "Lethal Weapon 3, or 4" where he struggles underwater with the villan and saves his own life by firing a AK-47 type rifle that he scavenges from one of the bad guys that he had killed a few minutes before and had fallen into the water with his rifle...
This movie is available on DVD and I replayed that scene many times in slow motion. It appears to have functioned flawlessly for more than one burst without benefit of special effects (other than the use of blanks...since if he didn't use blanks in that scene, they certainly didn't pay the actor playing the villan enough [img]biggrin.gif[/img] )
Would I try it with any firearm? Only if my life depended on it...and there were no other alternatives. I make it my business to stay out of serious social situations like that if I can avoid it [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
