Every year, the Big Sandy Shoot draws in hundreds of shooter from all over the world, for what is known as the largest shoot.
The Big Sandy Shoot is a bi-annual event, held in the western desert of Arizona, where you can shoot your heart out for three straight days. Featuring a 1500 foot firing line, 1200 yard maximum range, over 1000 reactive targets and aerial targets, this is one shooting exhibition you dont want to miss, if youre into this stuff.
Machine-guns, gatling guns, bazookas, and pretty much every other type of weapon ever invented can be found at the Big Sandy Shoot. Shooters have to fork out $230 ($200 if reserved in advance) to participate and spectators just $25. Both have to sign a release waiver stating they enter the shooting range at their own risk.
The average 3.5 million rounds fired at the Big Sandy Shoot certify it as the worlds biggest shooting event. I cant say that impresses me much and regarding the safety, seeing women and kids handling deadly equipment isnt very reassuring.
I would hate to be a prairie dog in that field.
Someone should open a lead mine down there.
Wonder when Janet is going to call this “terrorism” and put this event on the “terror watch list”?
Good Lord, this is like “Burning Man” for pro-gun folks...great pics btw
He'd best not say that in front of my wife.
Yep. Could have done without the editorializing of that last sentence.

Great show, I usually catch it when they do the mini-marathons of 3 or 4 episodes in a row due to working weird hours.
Somebody should send the URL for the Big Sandy shoot to Ahmanutjob. I tried but Ahmanutjob@iran.gov came back with an invalid address... :(
