An inexpensive, semiautomatic, high capacity 9mm assault pistol manufactered by intratec. Its shrouded barrel and large magazine in front of the grip give it its menacing appearance. because of its large ammo capacity, from 30 to 50 rounds depending on the clip, this weapon is favored by thugs, and criminals. It considered far too unreliable, heavy and inacurate for self-defense. Its most notorious use was the role it played in the Columbine High School shootings

May 22 Word of the Day
A moment that is generally agreed to have had a significant influence on pop culture and everyday life. While the term was coined by Rose McGowan in context of the #MeToo movement, and is mostly associated with the K-pop community, the phenomenon is universal and a basic component of how culture works.
Real world events such as social/political movements, the election of a new U.S. President, major catastrophes and disasters, as well as entertainment such as movies, music and TV, can all function as cultural resets. Notable cultural resets in relatively recent memory include:
* The Beatles appearing on the Ed Sullivan show in 1964
* The Watergate scandal of 1974
* The release of Nevermind by Nirvana in 1991
* The September 11, 2001 attacks
* The election and inauguration of Barack Obama in 2009
* The COVID-19 pandemic

"The Nineties politically started with the fall of the Berlin Wall on November 9, 1989 and the Soviet Union dissolving on December 26, 1991, and ended with both the 2000 Presidential election which saw the victory of George W. Bush and the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 which left people so stupefied that it functioned as something of a cultural reset button." - TV Tropes' article on the 1990s

The correct designation for what is sometimes called a Tech-9, Tek-9, etc. It is a semi-auto only 9mm pistol made by IntraTec. It never has been a machine gun, machine pistol, or sub-machine gun. It has never been used by military or police units. It is a favorite of people who don't know jack about firearms.
The TEC-9 is not a machine gun.

The Tec-9 sub machine gun is pretty much the modern day Tommy gun. It's used by hundreds of street gangs and terrorists. Though the full-auto version is extinct, you can by them in some places of America in gun stores in semi-automatic for very cheap (because they are not very accurate or reliable), but they can be converted to shoot full-auto very easily, that’s why they are so popular, and they are also light and compact and pack a high volume of firepower - you can get up to 50 round magazines!
