    I also realized how important your marksmanship principals are after the shoot. On Tuesday I couldn't hit jack shyte, and then we went and reviewed the MPs on thursday morning and I did a LOT better that day (well, good enough to pass PWT2&3)

    It's a good weapon, but it sucks after 3k. heh But it sure as hell is fun to have 2 full boxes of blanks and being on your final platoon attack and you're Section Cmdr tells you to expel all ammo. WEEEEEE 400 rounds in about 4 mins.

    Food Serving Sizes??

    In the field, they usually have about 1.5 times as much as they need, so you can usually grab seconds, and normally as much bread/peanut butter and fruit as you want... In the mess, you can go through once but they have a huge assortment. Infact, today at lunch I had: 1 sub 2 hot dogs 2...

    I joined when I was 16. As long as you don't act like an immature little prick then it's all good. Drive the body and give it your all, and you'll do just fine.

    Who makes the C6??

    Yeah, some messed up stuff happens... even in that story I posted a while ago about the mercs in Iraq... the Team Leader took like 4 shots + frag nade shrapnel in the noggin and he fought on. Getting shot i'm sure has many many factors in which you may or not be critically wounded...

    Who makes the C6??

    I may be not be a small arms SME but I can tell you by using simple logic, a person should NOT be able to survive a .50 cal shot. Granted everything has exceptions, and i'm sure this incident was one in a million (same way a kid took a .38 special to his head and lived... albeit with half a...

    Who makes the C6??

    I find that hard to believe. Maybe point blank on their arm or something...

    Who makes the C6??

    Ahum... YEAH. Even if a .50cal misses your head by 1-2 inches it can still be blown apart by the concussive shockwave. And Wesley, you can edit your posts, no need to make 3 in a row.
