    Default Machine Gun Shoot anywhere nearby?

    Is the Cheyenne Wells Shoot still going on?
    If not, what is the closest one this year?
    One thing I'd like to try is a suppressed 50BMG rifle.

    Phoenix Weaponry is mentioned in announcement, may be able to contact them for list of firearms(they are probably providing firearms/ammo for the benefit event).

    Watched one of the video's, looked like Phoenix Weaponry had all the MG's at the shoot.
    Nice that they had steel plates to shoot.
    I wonder if MachineGun Tours does any in state events?

    Contact Denver Bullets, they probably know about every mg shoot for 1000 miles.

    And fuck Dragonman.

    Colorado used to have an amazing shoot twice a year. Think it was Rocky Mountain Gun Owners or 50 cal Association. If I remember correctly, it was just north of Denver and we had to stop shooting whenever a vehicle came across the range a few miles away. It moved to Ft Morgan, Hudson, and was even on Congresswoman M Musgraves land for years. It shifted to Cheyenne Wells after that and it was amazing! The local fire department raised funds thru the shoot. Hours of RC aircraft targets, cars loaded with explosives, RVs going boom, etc. The local Air Guard showed up one year and put on a performance that kicked butt. Even nite shoots with 3rd/4th gen optics. Last year was maybe 2018? The people of Cheyenne Wells made me feel like family every time I was out there. I really miss going out there every May!!!

    Casper WY has a great machine gun shoot every June so you just missed it. Every auto, some artillery, and an outstanding mad minute every nite. Look up Central Wyoming Machine Gun. Been going on for over 20 yrs.

    Arizona has Big Sandy twice a year. Next one will be in October. You either fly into Vegas or Phoenix and drive a long ways. Its a big shoot with lots of military items.

    Oklahoma has the biggest shoot in America twice a year. It is called O.F.A.S.T.S. And next one is at the end of September. Drive is around 800 miles so a nice long roadtrip.

    Hope this helps. If you make it to one of these make sure you get great ear protection. 90mm artillery really smacks you in the face.
