Labor day off the back porch. Nothing like running some belts through the BMG says: "Hello World!"

I wish I could burn some belts off the back porch, my back yard borders a National Park, complete with the major breastworks from the battle of Kennesaw mtn. I've got some plenty of loaded Maxim belts but nowhere to shoot. 7.62 is too expensive to blast anymore, I might have to convert the 1919 back to '06.

No belt fed weapons in my safe, but I do have a class 3 FNC.
