yes, that minigun was firing at a slower rate, but I didn't get to fire it this time; I was behind my M60E4 as a door gunner firing tracers at the cars laden with Tannerite and fuel
that pumper truck was weighted down with H2O and did indeed get stuck in the soft sandy soil and had to get pulled out with a backhoe |

I really don't know what happened to all the brass and M13 links we fired from the ground have you seen my past trip reports from Dillon Aero? now talk about some brass and links there (but they try to collect and reuse a good majority of it) |

Awesome...
Somewhat unrelated, but a guy I used to work with had a brother in law who was an Apache pilot. He said whenever they had to land at a commercial airport one of the guys in his unit would put a "For Sale" sign in the window of his helo when he left it parked. |

we just finished filming Part 2, and Kristin Adams from G4TV came to film a behind-the-scenes expose, set to air tomorrow:
G4 to feature G Fuel’s explosive video game contest on hit TV show ‘X-Play’ Wednesday, November 21 ‘X-play’ takes viewers behind the scenes as host Kristin Adams and three contest winners get the opportunity to Live the Game™ -firing live ammo, flying in a helicopter and receiving training from U.S. Special Forces. spoiler alert: Kristin fam-fired various M4s and handguns and an AI .50 caliber rifle, used my M60E4 firing tracers to blow up Tannerite & fuel mix, got rides in the UH-1, and engaged steel targets with an M4 from Vertex's hovering Robinson R22... |
