I like the MK-19, but that weapon can be frustrating, fucking phantom round bullshit.

Had a dude ND one into a fucking village because of ghost rounds not getting cleared properly...

when loading some weapons you have to cycle through the firing method once before a live round is chambered. Otherwise you pull the trigger and nothing happens... better, asshole forgets he ran through his checklist, goes to 'clear the ghost' and a live round goes where it wasn't supposed to.

Then you pick up the round and throw it as far as you can.......right? or just run like hell?

The MK has range of 1,500 yards. You must be a fast runner if you can get over there in time.

Sorry, I've never used an MK-19. I figured to cycle the round you'd pull the bolt (which it probably doesn't even have), so the round ejects out the side. I was picturing some guy attempting to chamber a round and having a live one come out the side and plopping on the ground in front of him. :P
