Sounds like complete bullshit to me- certainly modern self loading weapons require an adapter at the muzzle to ensure the weapons fire properly with blank ammo. And even a private could tell instantly whether the belt or clip (yes, for a garand, we say clip) he was handling contains live or blank rounds.

I call bullshit.

I called BS at #20 and explained in #38. Good job.

Also having experience with BFAs and having fired lots of blank and live ammunition, I agree. You'd have to be a complete imbecile not to know the difference.

You don't need a Bachelor of Science degree to call this bravo sierra. Isn't the Guardian a hardcore leftwing rag?

All you said plus the sunken LSTs. Agreed, BS.
