that is awesome! you did a great job with that. when i was a kid i got a toy 50 cal on a tripod for christmas. and it was BIG...probably 3/4 scale. you put 4 d cell batteries in it and when you pressed the trigger an orange piece went in and out of the barrel and it made the machinegun sounds. it was my favorite toy. i would sit in my pjs and watch 12 o'clock high shooting 109s and 190s out of the sky with the waist gunners... your boy will fondly remember that gun all his life. buy him a 12 o'clock high dvd now...lol
 
Thanks guys! And I almost didn't start this thread because I didn't think there would be much interest in it. I'm glad I did now!

I post this last picture here because it's Halloween related. Jack was a big hit with the .30 by the way.
That's me dressed as a dummy holding the bowl of candy. I would hold still, and when the kids would make a grab for the candy. I would grab one myself and hold it out to them, or say "One only" or something like that. Lots and lots of screaming. The mothers of the kids screamed even louder. I went through over 300 pieces of candy in about 4 hours tonight.
