1. Bullet in flight. I think this is a MAC of some kind.

2. If you look close, you can see the bullet streak. The rifle is a Britsh Sterling converted to .45 ACP.

3. M-14 7.62 automatic rifle with suppressor.

I think that's my favorite pic from the day.

It was a devastating MG. I can't even imagine trying to charge up a beach with a bunch of these things hammering away in my direction.

It's a fantastic place to park if you want to convert your car into a cheese grater.
