Knob Creek Gun Range
Knob Creek Gun Range (also referred to as Knob Creek Range or simply Knob Creek) is an outdoor shooting range located in Bullitt County, Kentucky, United States, near the community of West Point, Kentucky.〔The range is served by the West Point post office, which lies in Hardin County, but the range itself lies in Bullitt County.〕 The range is a former military-munitions test range. As well as being open all year around, the gun range also hosts a biannual gun show in April and October, which is billed as the "World's Largest Machine Gun Shoot and Military Gun Show".〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.machinegunshoot.com/ )〕 The range also hosts a number of shotgun, handgun, rifle and machine gun competitions in April.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.machinegunshoot.com/regforms.htm )〕 The range is a family-owned business, with three generations of the founding Sumner family working there as of April 2013. Both the range and the Sumner family are featured on ''Guntucky'', a reality TV series that debuted on the CMT cable channel on April 21, 2013.
==Machine gun shoot==
Held in April and October, "The World's Largest Machine Gun Shoot and Military Gun Show" is an event that draws machine gun dealers, collectors and enthusiasts from all over the country.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.machinegunshoot.com/shootinfo.htm )〕 The Machine Gun Shoot itself consists of several rounds of firing at a wide variety of appliances, vehicles and pyramids of tires. Participants also have the opportunity to shoot at barrels of fuel with pyrotechnic charges attached, which explode when struck by bullets. The objective for these shooters is to destroy everything down range. The presence of many rare and powerful fully automatic weapons also draws many visitors, with firearms ranging from submachine guns to .50 BMG heavy machine guns and M134 Miniguns.〔
The main event of the Machine Gun Shoot is the "Night shoot" where, after dark, gasoline-filled metal drums and explosives are set up in and around the targets, and tracer ammunition is used.
Although reserving a lane for the machine gun shoot is difficult with a several-years-long waiting list, lane holders usually rent the use of their weapons to spectators for a nominal fee to cover the cost of ammunition and wear and tear on the guns themselves.
