Back in the early days, when VM-68's were new. I picked up a F-1 illistrator. I ported the valve, opened up the bolt face, and a very light trigger job. I had a rather decent rate of fire. I had to explain what a "cyclic" rate was, and it stuck. Then I went a bought a full auto 9mm and it was set in stone- I was Cyclic.
I remember when the first semi-auto's came out and I was just lusting on them during lunch break. Things progressed pretty fast at that point, and before long I was running a mag, playing the local teams, and the field "airsmith" (if you can remember when that term was "hip"). Been out for a long time, and had to dig the old mag out. It was the only gun I never got rid of. Seriously thinking of pneumag conversion, just waiting on some extra time and money not dictated for the family.
