After firing a machine gun, some of them will want to buy one.

If they have a Class III license, $20,000 for the automatic, and the money to feed it, as well as the $200 for the tax stamp.

Bumpfire systems now offers a $99 solution, but you still need to feed it.

The place from what I gather is like a cross between Call of Duty and Disneyland. The idea of people enjoying themselves by responsibly using firearms and youngsters learning to use and respect weapons,basically the exercise of the 2nd amendment in general, always gets their panties in a bunch. Guns are bad, guns kill, gun owners are evil. Blah, blah, blah. The usual liberal BS. Its a hoot reading their “more outraged than thou” posts.
I’ll bet this place will be a goldmine for the owners. I smile when I think of liberal heads exploding.

Call of Duty is terrible. I grew up on the old SOCOM games. On a whole other, higher level than Call of Duty could ever hope to be. Unfortunately the developer tried to get that money and ended up ruining the name of the franchise.

Played as Navy SEALs, 4-man fireteam, campaign in a few areas of operation encompassing different fighting trains of thought - urban, jungle, snowy, etc. They brought vehicles in for the 3rd game, and it became an entirely different animal.

I once had some silly kid tell me while I was playing a different game that because he played Call of Duty, that made him better than me. That kind of mentality gives all of us gamers a real bad reputation.

That Range we went to was the best one I have been to. It really has some good dynamics going on :)

Hey bud - anytime you're down this way, just call and we'll unlock the gate for ya. It'll be our pleasure.

I’m not a gamer but I work in retail and the men’s department has a lot of CoD stuff. Hats, tees etc.

I think she was not alone just had more than one round and she offed him cause he was there. my training = only one round until you are truly on your own. and i’m not around. The individual holding the firearm needs to understand the destructiveness of a firearm and how it operates. one round, two, three, etc on their own after initial training. an automatic even more so. and i have never fired a fully auto anything so i only make my comments on reactions i have seen with grown men on the first time firing a semi auto or even revolver. in the wrong hands semi might be bad enough. And i’m not a professional trainer but these were my friends who wanted to shoot my guns and that was my approach based on how i was trained. i wouldn’t give anyone a full auto under those circumstances until i was well out of the parking lot. It’s only fun until someone has an eye out.

If they have a Class III license,

An SOT is not required, in fact. If you live in a free state, just the tax stamp, the $200, and and patience to wait. Well, and fingerprints in triplicate.

Thank You for your Kind words!

When I visited Hawaii and Guam last year with the Air Force that was one of the many things that stuck out to me.

Gun Tourism, then those stories started to pop up.

In Honolulu they have peddlers in the street shoving pamphlets in the visitors faces.

They ignored me because I wasn't Japanese.

And In The Capital in Guam, there is literally one on every block, they gouge the hell out of those tourists but they cannot get enough!

Like the Articles said, sometime they need sit down because they have never even seen a gun before.

There was the case a couple of years ago in Connecticut of a father who took his 12 year old son to firing range that featured Uzis. The instructor must have been piss-poor in setting it up because the kid fired on full auto and it went back on him and he caught a round in the head.
