Based on a joke from a Demolition Ranch video:

The M-16 was developed during WWI.

Proof: 1911 was developed in 1911. The 1903 was developed in 1903. The AK 47 was developed in 1947. Therefor the M-16 was developed in 1916.

Yes, but they were a brewery.  They only switched over to making toys after prohibition took effect.

The more 'Stuff'...lights, scopes, lasers, night vision, forward grips, etc. you hand on your go-to rifle, the more dangerous it is, and they all enhance your accuracy

The corrolarry is that the more you have on it the less you need to practice/ train, because you automatically shoot better...

Overheard in a gun shop many years ago: "The Glock points just like an extension of your hand.  If you hear a noise in a dark room, all you have to do is shoot toward the noise and whatever it is, you'll hit it.  That's how naturally the Glock points."

(Myth Busters proved it, and I believe them.)

.357 will go right through an engine block.

Police are professional gun user and are mighty fine shots, so good that civilians will never compare.

Glocks are not perfect. Send them all to me, cause they are just awful.

Not disproved, the original M16 furniture was made of Bakelite, which was invented in 1907.

But Eugene Stoner wasn't born until November 1922 so he couldn't have invented it. The M16 was actually invented by Nikola Tesla as a weapon to kill aliens. The government credited Stoner with the invention and had them manufactured by Mattel to cover up the whole conspiracy. Originally it was a pulsed energy weapon that Stoner then converted to a conventional cartridge just in time for the elite special forces to kill nazi mutant zombies during WWII.
I have actually heard all this except for the Tesla and energy weapon part. Some dude that I met once was convinced that the US "ELITE" forces in WW2 had M16s, but it was so secret that they didn't declassify it till the 60s.

They will if you put a teaspoon of axle grease on the first round.  The heat from the first round going off will melt the rest of the grease and the other rounds will function/feed flawlessly.

But higher elevation gives better accuracy due to less air density and less friction.

Guns in the vacuum of space won't shoot because there's no air for the gunpowder to burn.

Bullets fired on Earth fall to the ground because of gravity. Bullets fired in weightlessness will "curve" upward because there is no gravity to pull them down. Eventually they will turn 360 degrees, and hit the shooter.

When someone shoots in weightlessness, the recoil will push him backward as fast as the bullet leaves the barrel. The reason it doesn't do so on earth is that wind resistance pushes on the shooter, keeping him in place. This is true because a U. S. Marine told me so.

Bullets hitting a manned space vehicle will bounce off, because of the pressure inside the spacecraft. Same with the astronaut's pressure suit.

You can't have military people in space because they won't stay still in formation: they'll float around and look silly.

Everyone is of equal intelligence in space. Why? Because the weightlessness will make their blood pool in the middle of their bodies, making them all have equal amounts of blood in their brains. Marines will be just as smart as Ph.Ds.

A police officer only needs to only fire one shot to stop a bad guy....and there is no reason to use a gun in defense of someone pulling a knife on you.  This IS the playbook they are trying to pass for Dallas (TX) PD.
