    Not at all, sorry to mention Paintball guns yet again, but the Angel is
capable of out firing just about any "small firearm". It can fire upto 15
rounds per sec limited only by the gravity fed ammo. It would be faster if a
spring feed was used, in semi auto it can fire more than 10 rounds per sec.
The gun we are talking about would be capable of firing as quickly if not
quicker.

    I agree Micheal.
