Nice work.

I see you don't have to tell people to smile when there are machineguns involved ;)

Looks like you guys had fun.

You're right about that. The smiles just happen. It's like magic.

Thanks. #2 is my personal favorite also.

Those are great. I love number 1. It's good to see a father and son having so much fun.

What is that on the end of the muzzle in 3, 4 and 5?

Well the boys dad was there, but he's not in the picture. That is the guy that owns the MP5-SD. The boys Dad is in pic #8.

The thing on the end of the muzzle is jokingly called a "loudner" or "obnoxiousinator". It's really a "muzzle brake" that is supposed to reduce recoil, it does that, but it makes that thing LOUD LOUD LOUD!!!! That thing will loosen fillings if you're not careful.

Thanks. I was shooting in AV mode and adjusting the f stop on the fly. ISO was up and down due to the overcast, sunny, snowing weather. The shutter speeds varied greatly from shot to shot. I have better luck catching the fireballs with a slower shutter speed, but they look better when I catch them at higher speeds. I just don't catch as many that way.

Good to see family involvement! I love the action in #2, and the boy appears to be dwarfed by the muzzle flash in #5. Awesome stuff! I just picked up a new toy last night, hope to shoot one toy with the other this weekend :D

Great shots !! Machine guns are definite smile generators. I used some in vegas... I smiled until I had to pay up. :)
these pics really get the aura of full auto fire across
