NoBodyImportant Posted April 11, 2019 Report Share Posted April 11, 2019 (edited) I ask because the are as many Europeans as there are Americans at the machine gun festival. I go every year but this year I’m missing do to a death in the family. It’s were collectors go to buy full auto guns, cannons, flamethrowers, explosives. The always have the ranges set up with caravans, cars, boats and you get to blow them up. $10 a day to get in. Even if you poor like me it’s a good time just to watch. Only rules is it was to be civilian legal to bring. Edited April 11, 2019 by NoBodyImportant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farmboy91 Posted April 11, 2019 Report Share Posted April 11, 2019 Now that looks slightly more interesting than the East anglain game and county fair! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a blast. Cheap to get in the festival but you have to be rich to play. That guy with the mini gun spends about $100,000 on 308 ammo for the weekend. A Cheapo full auto MAC in 9mm runs about $3500and 9mm is 14cent a round at the cheapest. So you can easily shoot 10,000 rounds in a day. The guy with the black power cannon says it cost him $35 a shot. And he shoots concrete balls. That’s not even cast iron. But literally, the make up is 50% Americans, 10% Canadians, 40% Eroupians.

My missus keeps on about a trip to the States, maybe I'll make it around this time next year 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you only going to see one though Big Sandy Machine Shoot is much cooler. They fly r/c planes to shoot at. The US really doesn’t have that much cool stuff to visit unless your into nature. I would much rather take a castle tour. But if you do find your way to the East side of the states hit me up. I don’t have full auto but I have some burst weapons. We will make a day of it.

Scully Posted April 11, 2019 Report Share Posted April 11, 2019 Now that looks like a fabulous day out! Even those photographs would give our Police Inspectors, politicians and most of our population panic attacks. Its a different world!

Now that does sound like fun. To be honest a big piece of going for me is the food. Love watching man v food. As for castles over here I think the places not run by national heritage are much better. There's a few decent ruins to look around in the east of England. Thats a very generous offer, thank you. If you happen to find yourself this side of the pond I've got a Martini action greener you can put a few through 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
