He's talking about a saw. I know a lot about it what do you need to know? I'm more curious as to why you wanna know about it. The only application for it is Military and since you dont appear to be military since you dont know about it at all what's the purpose?

WHAT DO YOU WANT TO KNOW ABOUT MY S.A.W. , THERE YOU!!!

honestly though, asking someone to PM you instead of talking about it openly isn't really smart this day and age.

Civilians can own them, however they generally need special permits to do it legally.

i dont think there is any info on a 249 that a civy dosnt need to know. basicly all info on it can be looked up by anyone.

what ya need to know abotu firing and loading.... i think it would be better to ask someone in your unit abotu this. have the weapon ther and they can show you and you can practice. that would be alot better than having someone tell you on the net.

it seems kinda funny that your an e4 in security forces and you dont know how to use this???

what branch are you in?
