To: Who is John Galt?

Thanks for the update - I have been out of the Army for a while and forgot that they switched to a heavier barrel on the M-16 since I carried one.

BTW, my personal favorite weapon is a 12 ga. Remington 870 with a composite stock and foregrip and an extended magazine tube. I may not get a lot of range, but 00 buck works very well for up close and personal ;-)

As a previous post noted, many US troops love a good, reliable, pump-action 12 gauge. I (for one) wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of any popular brand of 00 buck - and I think any of the Kaiser's troops who might still be alive might back me up on that...
