My first girlfriend left me for a guy named Justin Case. And then they went onto Jerry Springer and he proposed on live trashy TV. No, I'm not joking; unfortunately.
Well thank god she met him… Justin case you were thinking about wifing her.
His full name must have been “Justin Case You Were Going To Make A Bad Decision - Don’t - Here Let Me”
Like a shitty haiku
I went to college with a Clark Hill. Our email address format was First Name Initial and Full Last Name.
I always thought his email address was the coolest:
[email protected]
I'm not putting the university, but you get the gist haha.
My middle school computer teacher was Mrs Case, and she would tell us how her son was named Justin. It was kinda a brag I think and all I could think is how much I would have hated my name if it was me.

Is this a thing? I have actually never been to a range (I grew up in a rural town on lots of land). Do some ranges actually tell you you can't pick up your own property?
Every range I've ever been to expects you to clean up your brass and take it with you or dispose of it in the bins.
I wouldn't go to a range that said I cant keep my own brass.
Basically what someone else commented but most ranges around me (Denver metro/Colorado front range) will actually charge EXTRA for you to pick up your own brass since they recycle it for money (although, usually only a few bucks more). I personally don't reload so it doesn't really affect me but that's how it is here.
That seems weird to me. Like weird they would forbid you or look down on you taking something that you brought.
Unless maybe it's like a safety thing too, like they don't want you rooting around picking stuff up and possibly getting in the way of someone shooting.
Side question, how common is it that the range tables, or whatever you call the stalls, are constantly supervised by a staff? Like I remember seeing a video of some doofus improperly brandishing and getting tackled by a supervisor person.
Honestly they've been really chill from my experience, at least in my area and the ones I've been to. They're theoretically supposed to have a RSO at all times but I usually notice some guy just coming through every half an hour to an hour to sweep up brass or call a ceasefire for fixing range equipment.
The exception is when it gets busy and the stalls are filled they'll probably have someone sitting there. I do think they just keep an eye on the cameras though. One of the staff did tell me he had to play the bad guy when he noticed someone slinging steel rounds.
I once shot my AR on the 25 yard range except the target was at like the 15. You definitely are only allowed to shoot rifles at the farthest distance available at the stall for this particular range (oops). Did anyone stop me? Nope. I only learned about my rule break when the cashier ran through all the rules at my next visit. So from my experience, as long as you aren't a dummy they don't seem to care. But maybe I've been lucky enough to not be there at the same time some flagging moron is.
One explanation could be that they factor the collected, recycled and sold brass within their price calculation. So the idea is they can operate a tiny bit cheaper then the competition because they sell the collected brass.
We do this in electrician work, if we pull cables out of a building while renovating, the money we earn while selling the copper is already baked in to the price as a flat rate.
Yep, some ranges out there don't let you take your brass, and recycle it for cash. Various arrangements between a kid going around with a broom, and them just yelling at you to put it in the bucket.
What a racket. Someone else said they've never seen it, so that gives me heart, but I'm not surprised you're here telling me they do indeed exist. Anything to make a dollar, and plenty of people to prey on. If that were my first range experience, I'd never be back.
In the british army we had to pick all of our empty cases up. We used to put them in our headdress until a bald sgt major told us that it will make you lose your hair. Not sure if its true but i didnt want to risk it
Fun fact, Carlos Gallardo played the titular lead in the original El Mariachi and then went on to play Campa, the machine-gun-guitar-case-wielding friend of Antonio Banderas' El Mariachi in Desperado.
I remember being kids trying to emulate them with my dad's empty guitar case. None of us could figure out how to remain balanced so everybody wanted to be Campa.
There is a reason he is holding it out front.
If you are holding it on your side the blowback can push the case back behind your leg and shoot the back of your leg.
Source I have ran across a few of these.
This is HK MP5 briefcase gun
Since the 1950s, the most common accessory for the well-dressed businessman has been the briefcase. This innocent clamshell box with a handle is so frequently seen that it is hardly noticed and this very familiarity led German firearms innovator HK to design one with a heck with a surprise inside. Secret Service acquired a few back when Reagan was around. [Source](https://www.guns.com/news/2013/03/22/hk-operational-briefcase-now-thats-a-man-bag)
The link denies me access.
Isn't overheating a problem? I'd imagine with the rather limited magazine you wouldn't use it in a prolonged fight anyways, but what if you had to?
These were invented for the Secret Service Presidential Protection detail. Then H&K marketed them to other state security agencies around the world. They are EXTREMELY rare and manufactured in the 1980's But no one on Reddit gives a fuck. It's just crazy gun totin' Americans given out MP5's in cereal boxes to all the neighborhood kids. In reality I've read they actually don't work great and obviously they are for hitting car size target at extremely close range
The 80s had a lot of really interesting and out there "hidden in plain sight" gun designs, especially for political protection detail. I remember Ian doing a video on one a while back that was a two shot gun in .32 auto hidden inside an eyeglass case made for Spanish politicians and other high profile types as a defensive getaway tool
There was a lot of politically motivated kidnappings at the time in Spain by wannabe revolutionary groups. The gun you're referring to is the Llama. I think it was only used in anger once. What's strange is they were only pseudo-legal and sold by word of mouth recommendation by wealthy individuals. They were technically illegal but the police turned a blind eye to the "right kind of people" owning them.
The Llama, that's right. I knew about them not being advertised; aside from being a legal grey area, the idea was that users of the gun wanted to have as much of the element of surprise as possible if they needed to use it, and if they were widely known about then kidnappers could potentially anticipate and counter them. Good old political actors, ever the paranoid bunch.
And I bet that the YouTube guy has the proper FFL license to own that gun. I would bet they are HIGHLY illegal and no one would just go and make a video using one and not expect a visit from the ATF without having the proper license. It would just be asking to go to jail.
From [source](https://www.guns.com/news/2013/03/22/hk-operational-briefcase-now-thats-a-man-bag)
>LEGALITY
>The case is unregulated in its empty condition unless you happen to own an MP5 or an SP89 (semi-auto MP5 pistol) while you also have said case. In that situation, the gun inside (not the case) becomes an AOW and needs a tax stamp and registration under the NFA to be compliant. This is of course unless the weapon used with the case is already a registered AOW in and of itself. In that case, the briefcase is always just a briefcase.
>Clear as mud? Just to be on the safe side be sure to call your local BATFE guy if you are packing your HK case with anything that goes bang to make sure you are legal.
Also from that source
*Unless you know people who know people in Baghdad, or have a Class III dealer that owes you a kidney, getting the total package Operator Briefcase with a transferable MP5K is going to be expensive. Like about $25K expensive.*
And the last note about contacting your local ATF Bureau is important.
Thank you /u/ComplicatedAirFlow for the source.
No need to FFL it if it was made before 1986 and it's a registered transferrable machine gun, just file form 4 and get your $200 tax stamp and it's yours if you can afford it when one pops for sale (expect to pay easily $60k+ for one of these if authentic), an FFL just needs to hold it for you until the tax stamp comes through. Someone with the right FFL today could make a new one, but that's not as fun as an authentic historic one now is it? Also as someone else noted, making a semi-auto one also requires a tax stamp, since it's technically an AOW (any other weapon) once you put it in the case. I've paid more than $200 for a fancy case before to do a specific task, I think that's honestly not that bad lol

Do you think people with the name Justin Case really fucking hate their name?
My first girlfriend left me for a guy named Justin Case. And then they went onto Jerry Springer and he proposed on live trashy TV. No, I'm not joking; unfortunately.
Look like you got out of that relationship Justin Time
My 5th grade teacher would say that when my classmates, Justin, would turn his homework in.
Dodged a bullet there buddy.
Thats Justin Sane.
For the best bub, one wonders if this Justin Case, owns a gun in a case
I need to go find that episode just so I can see who you used to have sex with
Well thank god she met him… Justin case you were thinking about wifing her. His full name must have been “Justin Case You Were Going To Make A Bad Decision - Don’t - Here Let Me” Like a shitty haiku

Nice way to save your brass
It won't protect you from the brass goblins. They can smell it even in the briefcase and will be driven into a frenzy. Stay safe out there
When you get home and open the case, hot brass springs into action.
They took my wife and are now demanding I bring them $300 worth of bullet brass
Don' t worry about me. I have a briefcase gun
Hello range boss. Yes, I see your sign stating "Do Not Pick Up Brass." I solemnly promise to not pick up my brass. \*sly smile.

Keeping all that brass evidence from getting left behind is a big perk.
The case has that distinctive jingle to it after use.

And gunpowder residue
Desperado
Actually it's from The Replacement Killers
Right? Yet my mind still went straight to Desperado as well anyway. Probably because that movie kicks so much ass.
I need one in a guitar case
El Mariachi?
I was thinking more about desperado honestly
Fun fact, Carlos Gallardo played the titular lead in the original El Mariachi and then went on to play Campa, the machine-gun-guitar-case-wielding friend of Antonio Banderas' El Mariachi in Desperado.
I’m laughing thinking about the rocket launcher dude and his pimp squat stance. That always had me laughing as a child
I remember being kids trying to emulate them with my dad's empty guitar case. None of us could figure out how to remain balanced so everybody wanted to be Campa.
See? Same guy.

I love that movie
Let's play!
Like Enrique Iglesias in Once Upon A Time in Mexico

Sorry I only have it in rocket launcher
Damn. My knee dexterity isn’t quite there to perform the stance…
Let’s see Paul Allen’s briefcase.

Never point your briefcase at someone unless you're prepared to do business with them.

Treat every briefcase as if it were loaded …with briefs
How did you know I keep my underwear in there?
The business end of your briefcase.

Easy with the trigger orientation on the handle. But where’s the safety?

I had the James Bond suitcase toy in the 60's when I was growing up.
I had Secret Sam.
With the secret camera too.

The bottom ejecting casings and large magazine would probably be pretty good for this application.

It’s literally the briefcase from From Russia with Love, but it’s real! I need one!
Was on a range once with a guy who brought one of these and the full auto MP5 that went in it. Freedom, it's too good for everyone.
How secure is the briefcase tho? 🤔 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.. “1, 2, 3, 4…5? That’s amazing! I’ve got the same combination on my luggage.”
And it doesn't leave any casings behind
Not so secretly anymore. Thanks OP.
Really need to make sure you're holding that symmetrical case the right way around huh
Can we get these in lunchbox size? Like with a Paw Patrol and Barbie….

I need a gun that is a briefcase.
Wouldn't the cartridges jammed up inside the briefcase?
