[swordtart]

If you haven't emplaced your tripod weapon before you expect to need it, you are an idiot who deserves to be outcompeted in the gene pool by the persons who PLAN their ambush.

If you you want to fire from the hip, save your dependents some of their inheritance by buying a AR instead. Then you can stumble into combat with your pants half down and still have a chance of dying semi-honourably.
