Do you know the difference between a machine gun and a submachine gun? A submachine gun is essentially an automatic pistol with a stock.
I'm not sure that I used the term 'machine gun', I might have, but if I did, it was just shorthand for 'automatic weapon.' Do I really have to say, that I did not mean mount a .50 cal HMG in the terminal?

Except with the exception of very few pistols (say the Glock 17), automatic pistols, are really only semi-autos. What you said was quite silly. So you are cool with MP5s, but not assault rifles?
That said, if I had to choose what they would be armed with at the airport, I would say M-16s with subsonic ammo. Even if there were just a few in a locker somewhere. I believe that my post about this has been deleted by FDs great forum fubar.

That's good. I'm glad. You can forward your claim on to Police Headquarters, Surry Hills, Sydney, and I am sure they will re-write their intelligence briefs accordingly.
