Since your bringing the biggest gun to the movie, you usually get whatever part you want . It worked that way for me when I had my M2 Browning , but that was full auto and backed up by a squadron of Apache Longbow helicopters loaded with Hellfire missiles. My son has been counting his allowance money in .50 cal rounds. He said the other day; dad I'll pull all the weeds in all three gardens for 5 shots at Bill's. Gunderwood, thanks for bringing it to the shoot and greet and sharing a very expensive and rare gun with the group. it really is a once in a lifetime chance for me and him and I really appreciate it.

No problem.

The BATFE is taking their good old time transferring the suppressor though. It has a brake on it, but the suppressor does reduce the recoil a bit, but mostly it just gets rid of the ridiculous concussion wave. Mostly it keeps everyone around you happy too. Either way I'll bring it. Without the suppressor you need to wear ear plugs and muffs just to make it hearing safe.

All of that is contingent on a good backstop though. Bill didn't think it would be a problem and I don't either. Even API bullets only go about 15" into the earth. If they hit clay, the jackets tend to come off and you have a nice steel penetrator souvenir.

You can be the guy that shoots Bubba when he's trying to shoot at a squirrel ...

What? I got to be the G'vment cracking down on Bubba for not filling out the required 42 forms to get permission to kill a squirrel?

Can't I be one of bubba's militia friends or something?

I can could have ultra right-wing, nut job lines like "2nd isn't for huntin squirrels boy, it for keeping the Gmen honest."
