I was thinking the same thing Mister Donut. I'll have to double check and find out if this rifle purchase is a one time thing on my father's part. If I could hold it off and buy one for myself and maybe use his gift as an upgrade later on, I'd be better off. I'll talk it out with him. I'm...

I just made an account over at CGN. I'll try to figure out how the site works tomorrow after work. I'll keep you guys posted if you'd like. I appreciate all the help and suggestions. I'll be doing some homework on all the suggestions. Thanks guys!

Yes, the $1000 offer is still on the table for me. I haven't talked it over much with my father since he said he'd buy me the rifle.

Thanks for the info and tips everyone. I appreciate it. I'll look into things some more but right now my main focus is on getting ready for the infantry.

I've never heard of them before. I'll have to look into that a little bit.

Hello Everyone, I recently made a switch on my application and decided to take the infantry soldier route. It's something that I've always wanted to do and I realize that I'm at the perfect point in my life to take full advantage of this opportunity and truly make a difference. I know there...
