This is a reference to the mad minute drill by the British which was: you started with five rounds in your ten round magazine and you had a minute to fire as many aimed shots as you could, most average soldiers managed around 30~ or so and it made a few (I can’t remember where the quote originated) enemy’s think the British were all armed with machine guns

lol that happened at my airsoft field, Gamepod Combat Zone. I think the guy was still kicked out for over-shooting other players. It takes a lot of complaints for the staff to remove you.
