   Full-auto pistols were tried and found to be uncontrollable 100 years   
   ago. They quickly evolved into submachine guns which used the same   
   pistol cartridges but had larger magazines, separate grips for both   
   hands and enough weight to absorb recoil.

   "An attempt to modify existing semi-automatic pistols, specifically   
   the Luger and C96 Mauser failed, as accurate aimed fire in full   
   automatic mode was impossible due to their light weight and high rate   
   of fire of 1,200 rounds per minute."
