A dream becomes reality
« on: November 27, 2009, 02:22:47 PM »
Was at the range today fooling with some handis and few mausers. Went about my business, then a person sits at the table next to me. He uncases five sub and machine guns. As he does this, I eyeball the Browning Automatic Rifle. I have always thought this piece has the highest cool factor of any automatic weopon. We talk a bit during the dead time,and go about our business. He shoots everything except the BAR. I tell him I'm not leaving til I see it shot. At this point, he hands me two twenty round mags, and says go for it. Well you did not have to twist my arm. What a sound,what an experience. The BAR has a sound that is undescribable. Now I have one on my Christmas wish list. Fat chance ;D

have you all ever handled a mark 19?  it's like an m-2 but it's a 40mm grenade launcher instead of a .50bmg.
