My all-time favorite full-auto "fun gun" is the Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR).

Problem was, when I was younger, I was a "light-weight"...tall and thin.

That BAR would scoot me backwards along the ground in prone full auto fire!

I had to crook my right knee and gouge a hole in the ground with my heel to "anchor" me while I fired.

With AP rounds that BAR would just eat a hole through masonry.

What is your LAW on owning machine guns ...I thought you were not allowed to have them, only with a special permit?

Deadly,

Our Federal law regulates their TRANSFER, not possession.

US$200 transfer tax every time it changes ownership, along with background checks, fingerprints and related bureaucratic paperwork.

Rev,

It is GREAT fun!

But, yeah, to do that you'll prolly have to leave Massachusetts (the cradle of America's 2nd Amendment).

The last time I fired a machine gun was back in '72 in the AF. If you scored 90+ out of 100 qualifying with an M-16 you got to hang around and fire the "extra" weapons, like a .50 cal, a BAR, a Thomson .45, etc. That was a lot more fun than the qualifying. It's amazing how the adrenalin gets flowing.

I love the smell of cordite in the morning;...smells like...victory!
