I popped my cherry on an M60 and a Thompson at the machine gun shoot at the Londonderry F&G today! I had never shot one before and the amount of ammo flowing through those barrels was staggering.
The M60 was crazy, it had an Eotech red dot on it and it was devastating. Easy to shoot and totally obliterated anything that little dot was on.
The Thompson was a lot harder to shoot, it rises with each shot so you have to hold it in such a way as to force it down. I don't know how those gangsters back in the 20's hit anything. The flash from the muzzle was awesome, I would love to see that thing fire in the dark.
The fun was over way too fast, lots of brass on the ground and a lot of smiles on everyone's faces.
