In case youre not familiar with the size of the bullet that things fires:
The bullet on the left is a .223 caliber round - similar to what is used in weapons like the civilian version of the M16, the AR-15.
The bullet in the middle is a .30-06. A standard hunting round (for big game - deer, elk) and the caliber of bullet used in M1, an American rifle often credited with winning WWII.
The .50 caliber bullet on the right was designed to shoot down aircraft and pierce armor. These can be bought on the internet by the way.

Just ring your local gun shop Gareth, I'm sure they'll know.
How do you find the AA? I've had a few and settled on a TX200HC, not as quiet as the pre charged but its and awesome tool, bit heavy though. I had a gunpower stealth for a while, that was silly
you could increase the power to well over 50ft/lbs with a 1mm allen key on the valve, rediculous.

They do night events at knob creek with tracer rounds shooting at drums of diesel armed with a bit of TNT for added affect. Also they get model aircraft and fly them over the gun range, you then get some yank with a ships anti aircraft gun blowing shite out of it. What a past time 
They can either supply you with a gun from their arsenal... which is probably bigger than what the americans had during vietnam or just simply pop down with you willy's jeep with your .50 attached to the roof.
I have heard of another place which I think is somewhere like vietnam where you pay $50 and they give you access to a rocket launcher. They then take you into a field and you can blow up a cow!!! Mental

Thank god for being in the army all i can say!!
Being paid to b on the ranges and firing everything from 9mm Pistols, .556mm NATO rounds .762 GPMG's, 94mm Anti Tank Rockets..........its all good fun!
Do the odd bit of clay pigeon shooting when im home (range not too far from me in the back of a farmers field, he practises there daily.)
ADAM-BLACK RS: that is a different version of the gun stavros's pic is about. Same caliber as the aircraft weapon but built slightly different for electronic's to auto target and fire when they are programmed to.
think ill settle for using my weapon of choice that im issued with:

I fired a AK47, 12 gauge pump action shotgun, and a colt 45. The AK had more kick back that the 12 gauge !!!
We went there for my cousins 13 birthday, he got 30 rounds FREE on this....
I'll get some pics and vids up.

correct 89XR2!
the british army are going to be getting rid of the LSW's they use in favour of this weapon, and it has partially been used to take over from the 7.62mm GPMG's which are being serviced out slowly as well.
These things are a bitch to fire with the noise but its all good fun.
Gas parts are a cunt to clean tho
