Yes, I was this stupid once.

Yeah. My stupidity involved sinking a M-113A1 in a pond and deciding it would be cool to see what would happen if we blew off over 3,000 rounds of 7.62mm in a single M-60 burst. (We melted the gun. Seriously. Miracle the thing didn't explode.)

Holy... well, he doesn't exactly brace it on his hip. But still. I fired a 203 from the hip once and had a bruise for a week.

Reminds me of the old picture of the buck sergeant firing a Thompson with the butt braced on his chin!
