(off topic) GOT GUNS?

[Mark W]

Mark, is that a MP-44?

But who is the ugly mug holding that beautiful assault rifle?

;) Tell me how it fires if you get to fire it at all. Always thought that was a really nice one. Is it 7.62?

Yeah that's me, about 30-40 lbs heavy , taken off a little since then.

Yeah it was a delight, my Father and I got to shoot it. One of those once in a lifetime deals, the guy that owns it rarely brings it to the shoots because ammo for a while at least is hard to come by.

I have a video of me shooting it, but it's on a tape and I've been to lazy these last few years to digitize it in some way. If you want to see how it shoots, there's a ton of vids on youtube of people shooting an MP/STG-44.

One thing that I can say about it's select fire feature.... it's a total gimmick. The rate of fire compared to other automatic weapons is pretty damn slow. It serves the purpose of an auto-loading rifle much like the Garand or SVT. But shoots a less powerful round and holds 33 rounds (although I've read the men never loaded more than 28 rounds a mag).

No this one was in real 7.92kurz.
