Thought I'd post this here, rather than in the more general columns, since i've personally had contact w/some of y'all.

I don't usually advertise the fact that I've owned a select fire AR for 25+ years.  Acquired an SP1 carbine that had been "M16'd" back in 1976. and had it turned into an XM177E2 clone.

The problem, of course, has always been to find ranges that I could use it full auto, so I've either left it home during shooting sessions, or just left the switch on semi when I did take it out.

Now, since I have access to the State Patrol range adjacent to the state Crime Lab, I can rock and roll to my hearts content.  Had the thing out last Saturday, and it was great to flip that switch all the way 'round

Another good reason for having moved.

Too cool.  Let me know if you ever need someone to help you carry ammo to the range.

Quoted:
I sold mine a few years back because of no place to shoot it. I miss it bad but the price rise cut me out of replacing it. There is still no place to shoot one around here. Last time I went went my friend that still has his the shooter next to us at the WMA packed up and left then called the law on us cause he new we were doing something against the law. Everything came out fine after they checked the papers but then after the long chat the afternoon was spent.



And that's why I didn't bother to bring mine out most of the time

Actually, limited places to shoot FA stuff keeps me from buying.  I'd rather have a suppressor I can shoot anywhere (including my back yard; don't tell the neighbors though ) than a machine gun that sits in the safe.

It's too bad you can't hassle the ignorant pussy narc for blowing your afternoon.
Time = Money, that prick owes you!

I have a 9mm subgun, hard to find a place to shoot. Full-auto makes sheeple nervous.

006, welcome!  There are a few other members here with FA stuff (unfortunately, not me though).  

We'd love to have you join us for a shoot.  Again, welcome to the board and to the GA section.

Thanks, too bad it can't be fired at Charlie Elliot. I have other stuff though.
