This reminds me of a story a Marine Major told me about Life in the Corp during the Carter Years. Seem his unit went to the rifle range and were given old old original M-16's. Out of the whole batch only 7 were left functioning come qualification day.

Could have been some of the ones I qualified on in the late 60's. I never had a problem with a jam, but only qualified annually(best I recall). Don't remember anybody else having a problem either, but one doesn't pay that much attention to the rest of the guys when your on the line.
