If the bullseye was a couple feet off the ground, you could probably stand six feet in front of it and the bullet would pass over your head on its way to the bullseye. Not unless you're only about 3ft tall.. The bullets do come in at about a 30* angle when the distance gets really long, but at a 10...

Anyone know?

Alrighty, then!

Thanks for the welcome, folks.

I'd attach a photo, but I imagine that everyone here knows what a 94AE looks like.

I just picked up a `90s vintage 94AE at a really good price. I couldn't figure out how to top off the magazine, so with a bit of googling, I came here. What I didn't know about was the camming function of the loading gate. (Heck, I'd never shot a `94 until yesterday.) I was able to rub my finger alo...
