Futurama's Lee Lemon Runs the MDP-9 (feat. John McClane)
Forgotten Weapons

6m 48s
It's time for the annual Halloween PCC/shotgun match! By popular demand, I went as Futurama's Lee Lemon this year, with the Angstadt Arms MDP-9 PCC. Since the last time I was shooting it, I've gotten a replacement bolt hold-open to hopefully fix the failures to lock open, and a Wilson Combat "Tactical Trigger Unit" to replace the stock FCG. That new trigger is really good, but unfortunately the replacement hold open actually made things worse - I had several times when the bolt locked open on a loaded magazine, and it still didn't lock open the one time I ran the magazine dry.
Overall, I placed 24th of 68 shooters, and my friend Jordan (running as shoeless John McClane with an H&K SP-5) placed 14th.
