Dougan: Civvies can fire all that stuff. Scottsdale Gun Club was where I did some. Awesome facility,well over a million dollars set up. And you should see the REAL machine gun shop a few yards away in the shopping strip

One thing that is missing off the list is a .50 calibre rifle (I don't mean black powder - I mean .50 BMG something like a McMillan TAC-50, AW50 or Barrett).
I can tick that one off, as well as all 10 on that list. To the H&K MP5, you can add STEN MkII and Sterling and BREN gun. Also from others lists here I can tick off fragmentation grenades, rocket launchers (3.5 inch, M72 66 mm, and 84 mm Carl Gustav).
The chance to play with exotic weapons - one of the few advantages of spending many decades in uniform!

On my list would be a .700 Nitro Express and/or a 4 Bore rifle, plus of course a minigun with someone else picking up the tab for the ammo.

It is a fairly easy list to arrange but I am very surprised the pump-up shot-gun did not make it on the list. It is one of the largest "smile maker" when taking people shooting.
Being a US list, I would have also expected the like of the Mac10, mini UZI and other Vz 61.
