#bettercallsaul

Started rewatching #bettercallsaul on Netflix while over in Spain. Just got back, tried to continue and Netflix UK has it listed, but no episodes. Just says “remind me when available”. Tried plenty of devices (all same account) but same result.

Anyone else on Netflix uk/Ireland getting the same or able to watch it?

Goddammit, I'm gonna need TV and Hollywood to get fire rates and magazine sizes right.

An Uzi has a 32 round magazine and a fire rate of roughly 600 rounds per minute. In other words, that magazine is empty after 3.2 seconds.

An M4-type carbine has, depending on the specific model, a fire rate roughly between 700 and 1000 rounds per minute, and uses 30-round magazines, usually, sometimes 20. Maybe 40, but anything bigger than that would be recognisable as such on screen (taller or wider). At those rates, a magazine would be empty in two to four seconds.

In Better Call Saul 5x10 "Something Unforgivable", Lalo fires an M4-type rifle with what appears to be a regular 30-round magazine for at least seven seconds. Non-stop. Full-auto.

Even at a firerate of 700 rounds, that comes out to over 80 rounds. They don't make magazines that large outside of drum magazines, I think.

Get it right for fuck's sake.
