Me and this guy were holding off an opposing force from a building, the guy who I was with had purchased a rental pass which meant he was given a standard site rental M16. The weapon itself looked like, as you would expect, an M16. But the real discomforting thing about it was the massive gas tank which was connected to it at the bottom behind the pistol grip. (it looked a bit like those large gas bottles on the bottom of a paintball gun.)
This guy needed to do something, I forget what it was, but as he did it, he handed me his rifle.
I was laying down cover with this rental weapon, it was quite nice to begin with, until it ran out of gas.
When this particular rifle runs out of gas, it goes into an uncontrollable state of fire even if your finger is off the trigger. Long story short, I was suddenly operating the equivalent of a fully automatic light machine gun in a single shot only game mode.
After absolutely pelting about 5 people in the corridor I apologised, and with absolutely no idea about what just happened, because I'd never used this type of gas airsoft rifle before, I had no idea what to really do next other than just pick up my regular AEG and carry on playing. It was low-key kind of funny at the time.
I'll probably just be sticking to my AEG for now.
*I refer to the gas canisters as containing "gas", but as I was corrected, it was High Pressure Air. My Mistake.
