Some of those guys are crappier shots than some of the players you find in flak panzies and Osties.  I bet if they had an LTAR in that one AA gun, those RC planes would have been down on the first pass.

Not true.  The planes wouldn't even get to take off because the LTARs would've de-acked the field and vulched it into submission with their Panzies and flaks

Holy crap. Not the cheapest hobby, but definitely the most fun. :rock

These guys in Texas? What's the laws on throwing all those rounds in the air (besides having to be in the middle of nowhere)?

I wonder what a foreigner would think of this.  :noid

As long as the bullets are not endangering anything downrange there are no laws.

As a foreigner, I can say that I agree with that.

If it's inside a restricted area outside the range of the bullets being hurled around..... have at it.

Anyone stop and think about all the money that was shot up making that?

The minigun alone is well over a five hundred dollars a minute. .50 a round at 1000 rpm which is very conservative on both sides. If you cranked it to 3,000 rpm your looking at way over a grand per minute. Never mind the fact that the gun is worth nearly a million dollars. My friend had a chance to buy the one from the movie Predator. He said at 250,000 he wasnt sure it was worth it. Every year he said it had went up 50 to 100 grand, this was about 8 years ago now.

Reminds me of making a low dogfight pass through Tank Town when the #s are high.
