Wish I still had my “grease gun.” Crummy sights, slow rate of fire, but fun as all get go to shoot...

Went I good to Ft Riley out of basic. We transitioned (the good kind) out of M60s for M-1. I think the M-88 crewmen still grease guns. We had side arms and one M 16 on the M-1. The grease guns looked so cheap. But fired ok.

My grease gun came with an M-48 strapped to it-—right on the back wall of the turret. I can see being sentimental about one.
