Wow, really impressed with the spread you guys laid out. Thanks for taking the time to set that up and truck it all back and forth.

The wall of chronological M-16s starting with the StG.44...

My daughter loved the old-school water cooled ones.

I'm guessing the answer is no, but... if I join and the daughter qualifies (she's 13) could she shoot my 11/9 with a .22 conversion?

The two guys who brought the "wall of M-16's" only brought about 1/3 of their display! And they have a number of them that are still new in the box.

Good turnout for the TCA show today. That was fun!

Yeah it was good turn out all round. Lots of MGs!

Quick video I made. I went a little quick but it still took a little while to get through the whole show.

Nice meeting you all. I wish there were more guys wearing name tags though.

Plus I got to fondle my "soon-to-be-mine" M11/9. Thanks Stephen!

Glad you liked it. Your Daughter must be very smart seeing that all the watercooled but one were mine!

When they are under 18, we really restrict what can be done. We do try and let them do as much as we can safely do. We might rather have her shoot one of the M16s with a 22LR conversions. Gets that muzzle out further... Also we let the little ones shoot guns like my Maxims. We can lock them down so they can only shoot exactly where the gun is aimed. No way to lose control. We do what we can for minors but its kind of dependent on the day and what we have available. I can tell you this. You bring some 7.62x54r to one of the 100 yard shoots and she can shoot my watercooled MG08, the one on the tree. It might be on the sled mount but check with me before the shoot to make sure I am going to bring it.

That was one hell of a spread up there,I will definitely be getting out to watch one of your shoots this year.

Yeah name tags might be a good idea for next year. Yeah he had a good display of Macs!

You know the funny part is thats probably less than 25% of the MGs in the club. The wall of M16s can double in size. A few other members only brought select pieces representing 10% of their collection.

Absolutely fantastic event. Thanks so much for taking the time and sharing your passion. My son loved talking to you all. Even my wife left talking about getting a stamp.

So pissed I had to miss this. My weekend went sideways. Glad it was a good turnout though!

She's getting to be smarter than me. I'll join first and ask questions later!

Really fabulous collection.

I think you overestimate my collection.

Sorry I had to miss it. Glad you and a good turnout and maybe some future stamp collectors.

Had a good time at the show yesterday. A lot of good conversations, it sucks I had to leave early to go to work. I'm eager to go shoot my mac now and possibly get a max10 mk2 for it.
