A mommunists worst nightmare? Get out the fainting couch. LOL! WOW! Now that's a mighty nice collection of Class III items. I'm thinkin' this guy must have some deep pockets to put this collection together.

I’ve always thought that the Browning M1919 is what a machine gun should look like.

Ah, there is nothing like a rattle gun and the smell of burned cordite in the air! And better yet, gentlemen prefer to shoot them with suppressors (incorrectly described as silencers).

However, it isn’t the price of the machine gun that breaks you, it’s the spare parts, magazines, links, special tools, and ammo — particularly the ammo. Rule of thumb for: 1) magazine fed — buy ammo by the case; 2) belt fed — buy ammo by the pallet. More modern belt fed guns have quick change barrels — invest in several. The only other thing is to find a range that accepts full auto guns.

I knew a dealer who had just bought an M2 and offered to take some of us (his regular customers) out to the range to break it in. After setting the headspace and cleaning the Cosmo out of the parts, we cranked through a belt or two. It was a riot, and the thing shot incredibly accurately.

However, some of the fun evaporated when he told us that we had just gone through almost $1,000 worth of .50-cal. Roughly a buck a round (he bought bulk military once-fired).

Nice toy, but expensive to feed. I can't imagine the cost of parts and/or repairs.

“He had his friend go fetch them.”

Terrible idea to do and to write - not permitted for Title II.

Great collection however.

I’m surprised there’s no mini in that collection. There’s one for sale on subguns for the mere pittance of $325,000: http://www.subguns.com/classifieds/index.cgi?db=nfafirearms&website=&language=&session_key=&search_and_display_db_button=on&results_format=long&db_id=26809&query=retrieval

I think there’s only 5 of them in existence in private hands.
