The best description I ever got of furries was that it's astrology for sex. The fursona is their sign. I've found it to be a good rough estimation.

You gotta understand the skill set is highly specialized and is ever-evolving. The issue likely being that many take on their six figure salary and aren't paid for their weekend work but instead work to ensure the security of the employer.

If I'm hired for $120k/yr for a 40hr week, but I'm pulling 46-52hr weeks, I would feel the need to be appropriately compensated for it. If it's going to be considered a work hazard I would expect to receive hazard pay.

This doesn't answer my question, you're deflecting, however it also accepts 10 or 20 round magazines just fine. Personally I would say I like the option, my preference is 20rds, it makes it a little easier when shooting from a resting position.

I don't understand how cosmetics are relevant to its function. Like many other rifles, an AR-15 is usually semi-automatic, is that the issue you have with it?
