Default RE: ruger 10/22 full auto?

1. it would be a runaway gun (ieyou pull trigger and the gun with cycle and shoot till its empty) that would get annoying and not very practical.

2. Alot of Machine guns have beefed up firing pins, spring,bolts, receivers ect ect so it can handle the high rate of fire, point being a 10/22 would just jam and messed up all the time.
3. Rimmed cartridges aren't conducive to reliability under full auto unless they are belt fed.
4. Something like a 10/22 would probably work better fired from an open bolt and I doubt Volquartsen makes 'open bolt' conversion kits

I do think everyone is being a little hard on the guy, hes 16...he wants to light stuff upI understand where hes comin from, I sure theres people on this board that the thought of a functional full auto 10/22 with a 100rd drum would be entertaining.
If in some parallell universe where all fun things haven't been or are in the process of being taken away by liberal F-tards I'd certainly want a full-auto 10/22.
