in the meantime just to piss him off, i let loose with 20-30 rounders out of my hk-91 or my m-14's and not one problem.
this time after time really pissed him off. he bought usgi ammo, same problems, he reloaded super zoomy mega .223's..............same damn problem. buys cheap azz russian ammo and the problems compounded themselves.
then thinking he would kick the problem in the azz he buys the ultra uber zoomy carbon fiber ar-15 out of lake havasu ,az.............and alas the samo FTE and FTF problems rear their ugly heads again.
finally he took my advice and bought a freeking FN/FAL and has never cleaned it and it just keeps on shooting. amazing huh?
bored next time out shooting? yank a 8x8x16 block and shoot it with a .223 round(usgi) and then shoot it with a .308(usgi) and see what happens.
it will be an EYEOPENER and you will fer sure understand the implications of being a bad guy and squaring off against a .308 from behind a block wall "thinking" you have good cover. emphasis on the "thinking" part.
wants some more proof??? set another cinder block up and nail it with a 30.06 and then nail it with a .300 win mag and see what i mean.
now why since the gulf war has mcmillian firearms and arrington accuracy been burning the midnight oil mfg. M-14's??? they cant build enuff.
because after the experiences of .223 failure to knockdown bad guy EVERY squad now gets a DM(designated marksman) with a freeking M-14.
one shot-one kill, i rest my case.
gi's since vietnam would give their left huevos and right huevos for a M-14 instead of an M-16 for knockdown power.
and when its winter time and bad guys have multiple layers of jackets on, the problem is COMPOUNDED and bad guy doesnt go down with one shot.
samo with the M-9 9mm. why do ya think .45's are making such a comeback??? KNOCKDOWN POWER!
amazing we didnt have this problem in wwII with the m-1 garand 30.06 huh?
but WTF do i know??? i know this if i was drafted and they handed me a freeking m-16, i would either have a M-14 issued to me or i would be sent to leavenworth because this "NOBODY" aint going into battle with a "POODLE SHOOTER!" PERIOD!
my .0000000000002 centavos worth.
for what its worth................think real hard before ya "hide" behind a block wall, "thinking" you have good cover, and take a shot at me with my .308.
"and dem walls came a TUMBLING DOWN!"
