range day
So with 10 years experience with the Army and I've never fired the M-2 (Ma-Duece) or the 240B (replaced the M-60, which I have fired) until today that is.
It's a foggy morning, been waiting for it to lift and clear. Should be going up soon. Maybe I can get a pic or two. BTW- hope I haven't missed much, saw the chiefs loss sunday, boo! Hope all are finding sucess in life, love work and all you do. Out for now Posted via Mobile Device |

I got to fire a mounted 50 cal once. It's amazing what a round that size will do to a seagull.

Up at 415, chow at 5, busses moved to the range at 615, got here at 7, I've done nothing since but smoke a couple cigs, and smell the gun powder in the breeze. Hurry up and wait! LOL.....

Blasting the .50 off of the turret of an M1 has a look, sound and smell you will never forget. I would hate to be on the receiving end of that bitch. The 240 is rock solid too... damn fine piece of weaponry. Enjoy your day blowing shit up!

The M-2 and 240 are cool, but my favorite is the Mk-19. I had a convoy team in Iraq, six humvees with two M-2's, three 60's (yes really, our armory belonged to a reserve battalion), and a Mk-19 on my truck.
