How do you get this stuff to save on your computer?
I'm feeling foolish here, but I'm having trouble with that first scene. Seems like semi-automatic fire from a rifle, but as the shooter pulls back, the receiver or barrel that you can barely see at 0:17, just before the smoking SAW, seems like the barrel on a broken M-79 (round and that diameter). Maybe I'm being swayed by the yells for "40 millimeter"...I dunno. (It's not a Mk19.) Maybe it's just an M-16 receiver I'm seeing...I dunno. Someone help me with this Monday-morning bleary-eyed view!

Hold down the SHIFT key while clicking the link, and choose SAVE AS.
bttt
dunno if my download got cut off or what, but I didn't get to see the TOW fired at the end...just being aimed
Say 'hello' to my little friend!
Anyone else have any footage of our men kicking ass in Iraq?
The M-79 was withdrawn from service in the late 60's and early 70's and was replaced by the M203 40mm grenade launcher. Semi same round, 2/3 the powder charge on launch, but same warhead. That's what the squad leader is yelling for. Good out to 300 meters, I use to carry one under my M-16 in Korea...8-)
THAT was nasty...I LOVE IT!
thanks soldiers... I will sleep well tonight.
Ok first of all, the men fighting there were of the Army's big red 1,And also the army are the only ones who have the backwards flag on their arms, they were not marines. Second, that gun that you saw with the woden stock was an m14, The man carrying it was probly a special ops guy. The missile launcher was a Javeline http://www.army.mil/fact_files_site/javelin/index.html
The tank was a Bradley with a tow system on it

Yep, that's what I'm talkin' 'bout!
