I don't really care so much about the "What I actually suggested" part so much as the "Someone actually really liked one of my ideas and called me out on a great idea" part.
Well, yours makes an excellent Arch-Conservative Amendment if you ask me.  "Proposed Amendment <whatever>: All citizens shall be inducted into the militia at age 14 and thereafter be required to keep and bear arms."  Don't get too greedy at C+ Gun Control...

I really like this -- would you have any objection to my adding it to the mainline game?
But this isn't the topic here, so Im really sorry about rambling on about this.
Oh HELL No, Jboy2000000.  I first had this idea on Alpheus' thread, here's a link: Alpheus' M249 accuracy thread.  As I hijack threads, so shall my threads be hijacked--and your comment isn't really off-topic IMO.  You take that back and go on Liberally Hijacking threads.
You'd make a perfect Tumblr user love.

I went ahead just committed a change to SVN that integrated your Department Store upgrade, with a few modifications -- the AS12 is replaced by the Desert Eagle, and a few names are slightly changed.

I think I misattributed it to Kay12 in the commit log, due to the fact that I was also looking at Kay12's bugs & minor issues thread, and "Kay12" is really similar to "KA101". Oops. I don't think that's an editable thing.
Wait, does that mean a new version is underway? I haven't really been on the forums that much, and Im actually rather in the dark about the updating and upgrades to the game.

Eh, maybe. I've done some bugfixing and minor stuff, but I'm not feeling particularly inspired about any big features that would noticeably change the game.

I hate to advertise myself, but I did just make a thread with 9 big ideas in it, if you haven't already seen it that is.

What kind of "sport" is it where you use fully automatic rifles?

Target shooting. At a range. With a lot of targets.
Or conserva-hunting. Maybe Target-Conservativeing?

Hunting of a MOST liberal scale. Human hunting that is.

You could always add in a new "Hunting Rifle" weapon. I did something like that a while back, and added some new more Liberal ammo for it because the whole rifle/assault ammo is way too Conservative.

And now Obama is working on that law with "10-round magazine max" and other stuff I can't remember...

You could always add in an Obama mask if you want to fight the Conservatives and their 30 round magazines in style...

Both Barack and Obama are in the random-name tables.

As for hunting & the use of an M249 for so doing--I'm kinda closer to the L side of things here, personally.  Saw an AR15 at a local sporting-goods dealer a while back and couldn't for the life of me figure out why someone would need that sort of firepower to hunt.  Though I don't hunt, I suggest that if I need 30 rounds to kill a deer, that means that I'm probably more a hazard to any other hunters in the area than I am to the deer, and I don't belong in the woods.

AR15's don't have the power to humanely take deer. You have to remember that when an AR15 is used for hunting, it's used for smaller game, for which rifles similar to AR15's are appropriate, which would include game like Wild boar. And wild boar is extremely dangerous to hunt, since they have long tusks and are very aggressive.

As for M249's and the like, HERE is the sporting purpose the ULTRACONSERVATIVE AUTOMATONS have in mind.

I digress.

Is there a reason why all this isn't available at the Pawn Shop? Gun stores usually tend to specialize in the big goodies such as machineguns.

the reason why the pawn shop does not stock m259 is to give you a reason to raid the army base.

Agree, plus that's about the LAST thing *I* want to see from this kind of game - author spending valuable development time on useless graphics.

Check the OP. The mod being discussed gives the department store M249's.
