    Thanks for further clarification.

    (I know in years past that P.C. was allowed - but certainly no home brews)

    There was a near issue with PC ammo in a *nice* *valuable* Thompson sub gun last year or the year before.

    oh I agree, but I think the odds are a lot lower that there will be an issue. A lot more money, time , protocols, and more sophisticated equipment is used in the mass production arena, especially when you're talking ISO certifications.

    Will steel case ammo like Wolf or Tula be ok? Or only new brass?

    Also, I will bring some of my toys.

    I can't speak for everyone but I'm fine with steel in my AC556. It will not run the camo boxes Wolf ammo, though. The black box and Tula seem to run ok as does Silver Bear. Seems like someone had trouble with PMC Bronze as well. It will usually function most of those with my .30 cal can on it though.

    Please specify, so we can add them to the list.

    Not sure yet what all I bring.

    What I can promise for now:
    MP5K (fleming sear) and G19 with Trident 9
    G36K SBR (currently still has the 4'' flashhider pinned on)
    Sig556 SBR

    Steel case ammo is fine in mine except for the G36K. It doesn't always cycle with steel case

    Serbu Super Shorty 12ga.------****I recommend NO steel shot. It won't hurt the gun but steel shot ricochets a LOT!********

    Yes I was sprayed last year with steel shot from one of the AOW's. I would reccomend no steel shot.

    I would also bring 115 and 147 grain 9mm. Some of the guns seemed very finicky on what they liked to run. Some of the 9mm sub guns liked 147 and others the lighter stuff. You want the 147's for the surpressed stuff.

    Also if you have a mag of two it might be good to bring it if That is ok with the event promoters. It can get crazy reloading when you could be shooting. Also any reloading aids. My thumb was sore for a couple of days.

    The 1919 ran great with the german battlepacks 308 stuff I got from bradis. Cheap as you can get it just about.

    You are going to want some 22 subsonic for some of the surpressed stuff. Gentech makes some good stuff. It is good target ammo in a few of my target 22's and I get groups with it like I do with eley and wolf match.

    The grease gun likes ball ammo. The uzi liked the 115's and jammed with the 147's at times.

    Is no one bring the Phhs I loved that little fire hose. I think i had 32 brass in the air as the last bullet hit the target very fast gun.
