Re: Deer Rifle Capable?
seriously wonder if belts count when deer hunting towards the whole "5 rounds or less in any magazine/tube", i dont think they apply since it doesnt say "belt"

That was actually a play on Tony Stein, who made 8 runs barefoot back to the beach carrying wounded Marines and bringing back more ammo for his modified ANM2 aircraft machine gun- he's credited with single handedly taking out 5-10 machine gun emplacements and killing 20 Japanese.

Re: Deer Rifle Capable?
WVTrainer (member here) and I have a friend who lives in the eastern panhandle of WV who has a 1919 semi-auto that I have spent some time on over the years. I have shot it in both A6 configuration (buttstock, grip, and bipod) and A4 (from a tripod) and I was shocked at how accurate the thing was for what I previously considered an "area" weapon.
While I have never done it, I know that my friend has hunted WV Whitetail deer with it from a fixed position blind using 5-rounds linked (private property). I have seen the pics of the deer he killed with it. As I recall, it was approx. a 150yd shot and it only took one of the 5 rounds. Of course, he joked that 99% of all West Virginian hunt deer with a .30-06 (wink, wink...nudge, nudge)!
Having shot the thing a bunch, as well as mounting and dismounting it from the tripod...I can assure you that there is no way in hell I would haul the @#$%^&* thing around in the woods. Fixed position...ok. Walking hunt/stalk...HELL NO!

You know I started this thread as a joke to just post some pics of a new toy I picked up so My buddies could see it. But after getting this gun I have heard a shit ton of stories like this saying the accuracy on these things are phenominal not firing in full auto. I haven't gotten mine out yet till the tripod and pintle T&E set up shows up but after checking the barrel and rock solid design I dont see why it couldnt shoot well. Deer hunting...well maybe I'm a weirdo but I could see using it mounted to a hard stand. Hell, might have to mount a Countersniper on it now

Re: Deer Rifle Capable?
I have also heard stories of how accurate some MGs can be. Those 1919s are very well built and rock solid. Carlos Hathcock used a scope mounted M2 to make long distance shots in Vietnam. I think the heavy steel construction of these old MGs and their mounts makes for a rock solid system. A very nice gun sir!

Re: Deer Rifle Capable?
Nice!
Jeeezus, don't flame me... I don't know enough about the 1919 to tell from the pic...
Is that a transferable full auto, or one of the semi-auto conversions?

Re: Deer Rifle Capable?
