Went to the Machine Gun Range Today

[Lunchbox]

This is what 9000 pieces of brass and 9000 links look like buried under a M240B mounted on a tripod like below. The pile is around 8 to 9 inches high. I have some movies to just don't know of a site to host them on.

I shot an M-60 in basic and I loved it. Would really like to do that again. I bet you had a blast.

Man I'd love to do that. I've seen stuff  like that advertised in Vegas, looks like a blast!!

Would probably be neat to put a Ford or Chevy at the other end.

That is what was going on, I thought it was thundering in the north side of town.

   Looks like that would have been fun.  Do you have a pic of the target?

Im guessing there isnt much left to take a picture of   

There's gotta be 10 bucks worth of brass there!

I have shot at ranges that have old tanks, they are not as much fun as the range I was at with pop up targets you see in the picture. This range had pop up targets simular to the ones in the picture. They start at 300 m and go out to 800 or a 1000 m.

Stateside we have to pick up all brass and seperate the links out of it and turn it back in. When we were in Iraq, we went to a range that was about 10 miles off base. We started shooting and within a half hour, Iraqis showed up and sat on a hill behind us. Once we get done shooting and started driving off they ran down the hill with bags and picked the range clean.

P.S. The fires are from tracers

Looks like that was fun.  I've only shot an AR-15 and an Uzi.  Though the AR-15 looks very cool, I preferred the Uzi more because regardless of the amounts of bullets I shot, the thing never got nearly as hot as the AR did.

You must have had a good time while making that pile!
Photobucket is both free and easy to use.

I bet that pile of ammo wasn't cheap.

BTW, I don't see any damage to the targets or white flags waving

Not sure the price the goverment pays but the cheapest 7.62.51 round you can by civilian side is $.23 which that pile would cost $1840  However you know the goverment isn't that good of a bargin shopper.
