There's some wealthy folks firing that 88, cause if your a civilian the atf requires a destructive tax stamp for each round, if i remember correctly each tax stamp for each rd is $1000 verses a tax stamp of $200 say to own a machine gun or a suppressor.
This is in Friendsville, TN near Maryville, where I live. The gentleman who owns this property is a substantial business owner and can certainly afford the ammo. If I understand correctly, he has sold the 88 flak gun and now has an operational Tiger I which is built on a T-55 chassis. I attended their 2023 Veterans Day celebration where a multitude of firearms were available to shoot by the attendees. Many reenactors were on site and were accompanied by their vehicles and equipment displays. My "Fun Meter" was definitely pegged that day. Another similar event is being planned for 2025.

ReplyDeleteThat’s a very expensive box of ammo.
ReplyDeleteNot that I mind, because I like my local driver, but what's w/ all the FedEx trucks in the background?
