I simply cannot believe we are so nuts in this country. Hell on highway 50 in Arizona there is a restaurant called Burgers & Bullets. You can buy a package to have a meal and shoot any weapon you want. They will even fly or drive you from Las Vegas depending on he package you buy.
The have any kind of weapon you want. That include 81MM Mortar that I was trained on. 75MM Howitzer. Someone even owns tank with real gun in the turret.
It makes your heart sink.

Only about thirty machine guns, and 5000 rounds, give or take a few thousand

Also when I was living in Greeley, Colorado I was playing golf one day and hurt this bang and a swish. When I asked what that was someone in my foursome said there was some guy who had a cannon and fired concrete filled beer cans..
