I bought the book in 1974, it is now becoming a collectors item. It is really a good reference. Most libraries can dig one up through the interchange program, if you ask.
I have the utmost respect for the USMC, but they really are not the only folks who can use a rifle. BTW, these are all iron sight targets, no 12X optics back then.

I'll have to look for that one.

And you're right about the USMC, but do me a favor and smile when you say it please. I thought I could shoot when I joined the Corps but my Instructor showed me how to score hits at 600 meters using the iron sights on an M-16.

Once I got my MOS, the schooling really started and it wasn't all about shooting.

Thanks for the tip on the book. I'll see if I can dig it up.
