Oh, by far the most common responses are "Cool!".

I think people with Title 2 toys should consider being ambassadors to the rest of the pro-gun community. If for no other reason than to keep up our defense to the gun-grabbers.

My first Title 2 (NFA) gun was a NIB Vector Uzi. I had shot one that belonged to a friend many times. But I felt like a kid at Christmas when I got the phone call from the dealer. Muhahahaha!! I grabbed a case of ammo and all the mags and accessories I'd collected during the six month transfer process. After picking it up, I headed off to the favorite canyon spot just north of the PRB.

I was unpacking and loading mags when another car came by. They set up for some hand thrown clays and were already shooting when I let go with the first burst. They just stopped cold and stared in disbelief. It was funny.

Anyhow we struck up a conversation. One guy was ex-mil the other two, a father and teenage son, were from the UK on vacation. The American had rented a room with them when he was stationed overseas and they stopped by on the way to the Grand Canyon to visit and do some shooting.

I'm sure you know how screwed up things are in the UK. His 17 year old kid had never shot a gun before. The dad was an avid clays shooter and a member of a club. He talked at length about the errosion in gun rights during his lifetime. He showed me the government card he needed just to own a gun. They couldn't take their shotguns home (there were exceptions for owners of large country estates but most had to leave them locked up at the club). Thanks to Tony Blair's Labour Party, its illegal to privately own any type of handgun. Most rifles are banned too. The taxes on ammo were so high that a box of 12ga skeet shotshells would run him about $35 US.

I let them all do mag dumps for the next hour on the Uzi. Especially the kid. He was ecstatic. New friendships were made and that kid will have a story to tell when he gets home. I don't think I shot more than half of what went downrange that afternoon, but it will always be one of my favorite shooting experiences.

Here's a pic of my daughter shooting the Vector with brass in the air (the ear muffs were necessary, others were shooting behind the camera):


And another of my mom (in her late 60's) shooting the same gun with the wood stock and a .22 kit. The suppressor is a Gemtech Raptor.
