.9 Millimeter? Was this a BB gun?
Great job proofreading and I wonder if it wouldn't have been easier to have had them in his boat instead of his truck.
Hmmm.
A .9 mm would be a needle gun maybe, since even a full millimeter isn't very big. And maybe that's why it wasn't loaded: you just can't find .9 mm ammo these days. The gun was probably made for gnomes, and is a collector piece.
But to their credit, they did say magazines instead of clips, so maybe they are capable of learning; they're just really slow. But that just makes them special.
