Greetings
My first was an M16A1 while in the Pickle Suit. Next was the M3 Grease Gun as I was in Armor. Varias caliber 50 Brownings and the sad excuse for a caliber .50 machinegun, the M85. Also on the M60A1 was a caliber .30 M73 coaxial mounted weapon which was about as reliable as the M3 Grease Gun. Then there was an MP5, a Thompson and a British Sten third variation.

Worked at a class three dealer. Shot a bounch including a GE mini gun. My adding reversal dinner was at a gun club and we brought an MP5 with us. Everyone in the wedding party got to shoot it. Watching some of the girlfriends and wives that didn't like guns giggle after shooting it was priceless.
 
Yes,

I have shot the:

M1 THOMPSON--a really heavy blast from the past--easy to shoot

M249--easy to shoot
M4 Carbine--the one I shot, jammed
AK47----This is truely the worlds greatest submachine gun because using Chinese or Russian ammo, you can barely hit anything outside of 150, maybe 200 yards.

H&K MP5--love it
WALTHER MPK--like it
UZI--prefer MP5
M-10 INGRAM--fun if you have the supressor attached, no so good without it
STEN GUN--it worked, but I think that is rattled more than a YUGO
AR15 9m.m.--it was actually a semi-auto carbine, but started doubling
STERLING--Nice, but I prefer the MP5

Yes, I was an M-60 machinegunner in The 1st Inf Div in Vietnam in 1966-1967, and a door gunner in a helicopter gunship, 120th Assault Helicopter Company Razorbacks, 1967-1968.
 
AK74
Saiga 12
UZI with supressor
AK47 with slide fire stock.....lol :D
 
Micro Uzi w/shoulder stock
Steyr AUG with 9mm conversion

The Micro Uzi was interesting, never shot anything that short with a stock before. REALLY high rate of fire, though. Not that I'm complaining!

The AUG was cool, for the two stage trigger. Pull a little for one shot, pull harder for automatic fire. Handier than flipping a selector.

Overall, I could see some advantages, especially at close range. But I couldn't afford to feed anything bigger than a 9mm subgun anyway!
 
Yup

M249
Ak 47
MP5 SD

Las Vegas Gun Store on vacation they have tons of stuff to choose from.
 
MG3, G3, M-60, Mag 58, 249, Mat 49, M-16A1, Uzi, MP5 SD-K, AUG, Ma Duce, Thompson M1, Lancaster, BAR, Sten, Bren, MP 38-40, Walther MPK, Carl Gustav, Soumi, M2 Carbine,FAL, M14, AK47, RPD. Evidence of a mispent youth and having the right friends In the German Army, border patrol, Police. Most were fired during my time in Europe as a MP. Favorites were Ma Duce and the Bren gun. Least favorite was a toss up between the M14 and the FAL I found both hard to handle efficiently. The MP5 SD was the best of the sub guns followed closely suprisingly by the Lancaster. Hated the MAT49 French designers seem to forget ergonomics and go for gimics like a folding mag well.
