I am cutting Dave a creek this year, forget that tree stuff.

Think the PKM is up to it?

 

[curraheeguns]

Same scenario.....different cause and location. All because of Gamez235....

[Gamez235]

Don't challenge me, I am not one to lose.

 

[Clay]

hmmmmmm any ammo restrictions on the PKM?

 

[Gamez235]

Yes, it will be belted before the shoot.

 

[Clay]

ah so no need to bring our own? Are you going to sell some? I remember a while back a place that was selling belted ammo for PKMs but I dont know if they have any left.

 

[Gamez235]

We will be selling belted ammo for you guys to shoot up. I will get the details worked out here shortly.

 

[Clay]

i know. sorry for jumping the gun!

Hi pinshooter!

Thanks for the question. It allows me to clarify my previous note so you and others reading this aren't confused.

We will be using full rifle calibers at the pistol range. We'll be firing into the dam as our backstop. With dirt, it doesn't matter that we're only 50' away. (I've even shot a few 50 BMG rounds into it!) Obvioiusly at that close range, we couldn't use steel targets and rifle calibers.

When I mentioned the option of shooting across the pond, it was only if people wanted to experience longer range shooting and with steel. I haven't spoken to the other event organizers so I don't know if there is even time to do this.

Sorry for any confusion this may have caused.

well If I'd looked back at the OP I would have noticed AR15 & AK on the menu! And please excuse my ignorance, but what is a PKM? I can read that It's belted, so I'm guessing it's a full rifle caliber. And I think I've heard that designation before, but can't remember where it comes from.

 

[Cwood]

PKM.....

 

[pinshooter45]

PKM.....

Ahhh yes, now I remember! I think there was a U-tube of some US Marines linking lots of belts together and holding the trigger untill the barrel melted. Really fun way of destroying enemy weapons!

 

[glock212327]

I'm wondering a price for a belt so i can start saving up. Its going to be awesome. Is it a 100rd belt? Thanks Didn't know if anyone remembered from events passed the price.

 

[Gamez235]

Not yet. Most likely they will be 25 and 50rd belts.

 

[VUPDblue]

Not yet. Most likely they will be 25 and 50rd belts.

I want two of each, preferably all linked together

 

[Fenway]

Oh boy!

PKM.....

I'm planning to bring .223, 7.62x39, 45acp, 9mm, and .22 lr. Is there anything I should stay away from brand wise? I have a pretty good stash of ammo but a lot of it is cheap stuff, like wolf and tula.


Also I plan to bring a cooler and drinks. If there is any interest and it is OK'd by the organizers I am willing to bring along my AR-15 with the golf ball launcher attached for giggles. Not exactly in the same realm as a grease gun, but fun nonetheless.
