HK G36C- Just too much fun

[robertc1024]

There was a kid killed shooting a mini uzi years ago at a mg shoot.
Doctors kid, iirc. Range officers tried to dissuade the kids dad. The gun flipped back and rounds went in his head.
Dad sued.

That whole situation was full of fail. I don't find the videos of letting inexperienced shooters shoot hand cannons funny either. If they don't have a reasonable chance of controlling the weapon, they shouldn't be shooting it.

Uzi owner should've counter sued for loss of use while the cops kept it in evidence

A slower cyclic rate gun & no one would have died.

There was range officer killed in 2017 (IIRC) when a 9 year-old girl fired an Uzi. The gun just climbed up and caught the RO.

It's a shame that most folks (and congress) understanding of firearms & machine guns comes watching Hollyweird movies staring anti gun flecks of shit.

I am not sure... He could grab my balls, if I could shoot a G36C Full Auto....

Remind me not to go shooting FA with you...

I almost spit pizza out of my mouth!

It was 2014.

In case no one has ever seen it, it's on youtube here and elsewhere. We discussed it at the time and I don't think the video needs to be embedded on TGT nor does it need to be re-hashed. The mistakes of the instructor, his death, and the impact on that little girl are, in order, obvious, tragic, and heart-rending.

Original discussion here.

How did we go from an awesome time at the range to tragic accident. I think we can all get behind the responsible use of firearms. ‘Nuff said.
