Thank you for sharing my friend CW5 Jack Cardwell "In America, you can do a lot of things at a firing range — for the right price. Shoot a sten gun, a .50-cal, or an AK-47 — you can even drive a Sherman tank over a car. This is America and if there's anything Americans seem to hate, it's limits on firearms. But while America is not alone in their undying love for battlefield weapons, there are some limits to what you can do without breaking the law. "

There was a range near the Gunpowder River in Maryland where I got the chance to shoot the gun of my dreams, a Holland and Holland .400 Nitro Express. I had to pay $25 for the round that I fired (it's cost in 1962) and I qualified by tipping the scales at the minimum required weight (I think it was 12 stone) The gun's owner loaned me his shooting jacket with the heavily padded shoulder and I had at it. A year at Infantry School beginning in 1966 allowed me to shoot everything else I could have wanted to fire.
