As posted by someone else: [quote]It isn't false, it doesn't hit primers, true, but it activates linkages. Have you seen the hammer on destiny guns have a firing pin and actually hit a primer? Well, jackass, have you? Nope. Because the game doesn't give you that much detail. Again, linkages, just like the rhino[/quote] Even if that weren't true, it's not beyond the bounds of scientific possibilty that, in the distant future, they won't have bottom chamber firing guns that don't have a false hammer. Also, sci-fi fantasy, otherwise know as science fantasy, has been a genre in its own right for decades. You need to learn to google this shit before talking out of your arse. You strike me as the sort of person who can't admit when they're wrong, and no doubt will resort to arguing semnatics or further pedantry (seeing as how that's all the OP really was), so I'm going to leave it at this.
