Good evening.
"I liked the grease gun too,"

When you shoot one with a suppressor, you can hear the bolt close almost as well as you would hear the round exit.

Yep, the bolt was one heavy piece of metal! I was enthralled when I first saw one wondering if a gun made of stamped parts would actually work, but the worked quite well at close range and if you manipulated the trigger correctly you could hit a man at 100 yards with single shots. I never had the pleasure of using a suppressor with it as i was with a tank combat command in Germany most of the time but I was often singled out to demonstrate how to use one in full auto.

Of course they didn't let most of the troops shoot full auto, but I was comfortable with one and carried one for years. Loved the M3 and the 1911.
