Here's my "me and my weapon" picture. This was taken right after we switched from the M-14 to the M-16.

Great picture. I wish I could post one as well. I shot M16 at the range a number of times. I qualified as marksman too many times however, so the USAF doubled the intervals between my range opportunities.
My real weapon was a fuel truck with 5000 gallons of JP4 riding along. I also got to expiriment with liquid oxygen occasionally.

Hated the -16.
Wished there was something slightly more accurate, slightly shorter and easier to use in the brush, and somewhat heavier in the 'punch' department.
(The holy grail of weaponry of course.)
But, had to make due with the 16 and it's somewhat loose fit between upper and lower halves...
