Dins is spot on dude.

.50 cal is tremed small caliber by the army beacuse it's shot through a gun as oppossed to a mortar, tank or cannon.
Google only works when you have some semblance of knowing what your talking about

You know that.


I know that.

Anyone who has ever shot a rifle in their life knows that.


But the Googlewarrior honsetly thinks he's "gotten over" here. Not that anyone needed any reminders of the level of dumbfuckery this tool is working with.

He's KC Paul, but probably fatter. You can tell when Dio C&Ped something and posted it as his own(but SHHHHH!!!!! he thinks he's fooling people here) -- if words like "too," "difference," and "their" are spelled correctly... Dio didn't write it.

Worse C&Per than Paul ever thought of being.


It's one thing if you do a little research on a topic you're familiar with, maybe to verify numbers/statistics/spelling of tech-terms.... but when you have no freaking clue what you're talking about, like Dio in this instance(actually with Dio, it's every instance), websearches don't make you look smart -- they make you look like a douche... again.


Hey! Did you know the biggest rifle they make is 'small caliber'?"



Fucking clown.

Nope. Showering with other men has never been my dealio.

But my sibling who spent 6 years in the Army, and every other person I know who was in the Army(several) all call it a "weapon," universally. Or even a "rifle." Never a "gun."

This is my weapon, this is my gun -- one is for shooting, one is for fun.

Unless it's a howitzer or a mortar.

A gun has a lower trajectory than a howitzer, which has a lower trajectory than a mortar.

According to my sources...

I hate to break it to you, but "mortars, tanks and cannons" are also guns. Actually a tank is an armored vehicle that mounts several guns. But, yes, small is entirely relative.
Must you bicker everything?
