A carbine is not a full auto...

A carbine is a rifle, any rifle, with a shortened barrel from its original design. Usually a carbine is a reference to a "Pistol Caliber Carbine" which is a carbine which shoots pistol ammo.

Carbines may be lever-action (not fully or semi auto), semi or full auto.. But generally a carbine refers to non-full-auto

A submachine is a fully-automatic carbine, thus why carbine is usually reserved for non-full auto.

All that said you will almost **never** find civilians or police (even swat or the high-end cops) ever using a full auto gun. They wont even have burst fire. They usually use PCC or a full blown rifle.

They use AR-15 alot but remember an AR-15 is **not** an automatic weapon, it is a semi-automatic weapon.

@olives wait... cops in the USA dont even carry sub machine guns (fully-automatic guns of any kind actually)... I am quite surprised to hear in the UK they carry these casually. My guess is they are using the term wrong and they mean a carbine.

As a person who considers most people Nazi's, myself excluded, I agree with this.

The Sun today in hydrogen alpha. Processed in natural and inverted chromosphere luminance.

Another release down... I think I've reached a good stopping point for now.. I think I fixed every bug and implemented all the core features I could want to be useful.

There are tons of things I'd still like to add but I will give it a chance for others to adopt it a bit first before I start adding too many crazy features...

@hans Did you mean this as a reply to something else? Im a bit confused by the lack of context.

@bonifartius

Im all for children leaning on their parents for growth. But in the end just saying, its the child who has to live with the consequences, not the adult.

I had a very loving and well meaning parent, and she caused a LOT of harm trying to control everything, all with good intentions.

Part of the reason is i refused to accept any authority over myself. I knew I was capable and would decide what was right regardless of how much i might have had to fight my mother. This included simply leaving the home as early as 10 years old. Though when i was younger I could only legally stay away for so long.
