    There's another one off of US 93 near Wikieup, AZ, on 22, 23, 24 March for those west. They have events in March and October. That's where I took the pic for the avatar. It's a nicely restored WW2 M18 Hellcat that shows up from time to time. They were lighting off the 75 mm main that day. Muzzle blast was impressive. Night time shoot is the best, tracers, pyrotechnics and R/C airplane "drones" with lightsticks attached as targets. Mini-guns also show up sometimes. They're quite the show with tracers at night.

    Surprised they're willing to expend that much ammo. Way things are going it just may be needed.

    Hey @melbo, don't forget to pack you SECURE Phones... and remind @ghrit to bring his..... You share one of yours with Seacowboys, and he can lend one of his to RH, and yo'all will be communicating....

    The guys that actually have line space are typically multi-millionaires who buy their ammo by weight rather than price....

    Good idea. I was wondering how we'd all hook up. I'll be camping and figure that the camp area is a good place to meet.

    but I won't have a truck this time :(

    Usually more ordinance shows at the October shoot. I'm skipping this one. But may check out the October one.

    A couple of years ago I burned through $100 worth of ammo in less than 60 seconds with a rented 1919A4. That's the last time I did that.

    They have Maw Deuces you can rent too, for $4 a round. They also have an M-16, full AK, a PPSH, a Thompson and a couple others for considerable less.

    I wasn't aware it was restricted, and was curious who all would be able to go. :(
