Our ship has 5 inch cannons too, those things are badass.

The M-14 was the main battle rifle of the military basically between the start of Korea and the start of Vietnam when the M-16 was issued.
And the M-14 acutally does have a fully auto model made straight out of the factory that Navy does use.
