When I was in ,a long time ago it feels like, STA platoon was using the Remington heavy barrel M40 and we had the m16a1 then the m16a2. Times have changed.

“the service asked for nearly $4.3 million”

The USAF smokes through that every hour of the day with the F-35 and other screwed up programs.

This is why such programs need curtailed, it robs the other departments of needed weapon systems and supplies.

Mk 13:7 (abbreviation for book of the Bible, “Mark”, chapter, & verse)
But when you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be troubled; for such things must happen, but the end is not yet.

I had a buddy who used an M40 to drop an NVA colonel at 1,400 yards, while the colonel was at an outdoor blackboard, giving a lecture to three rows of troops.

Talk about psychological warfare!
