Turned 50 today, and a buddy of mine treated me to 10 rounds from his Lahti 20mm. I've fired a Solothurn through my job, but this was my first trigger time on a Lahti, and oh yeah! It's an anti tank rifle, so I think it qualifies here. :-)

I have changed my personal exploring ethics code. From now on it will be: "Take only aimed shots, leave only hobo corpses." Copper scrappers, meth heads and homeless beware. The Jonsered cometh among you, bringing fear and dread.

In answer to a PM, yes we were firing single shot without the mag. Got in the way of the scope.

I've only done that once and it was plenty enough lol. Then again I was prone on a bipod. I'm going to stick to smaller caliber NFA toys I think. My shoulder was sore for the rest of the day.
How did it shoot on the tripod? Happy birthday btw

Shot well. No real difference in recoil of 12ga 3" magnum loads. Tripod really soaks it up.
