http://www.colt.com/law/lecarbine.asp It's got 1:7 twist, and the barrel is 16" long. So, I am guessing that means that I can shoot anything 5.56(or .223) by 45? With grain ranging from 55 to 77? I didn't realize how spoined we were in Batt! Thanks, Stick with the 62 grain, 69 max. Properly lo...

Re: Critique Me

Question: For the APFT, is it absolutely necessary that I touch my chest to the ground? I've been going about an inch or so above it. if you intend on making it through RIP then be used to breaking the plain, your run time doesnt meet the minimum criteria for any male in the military, run everyday,...

I do believe msherlaw is a recycle, I heard him talking about going worldwide. he had a few neg. counceling statements and one of the cadre was going to give him an LOM statement, but he denied being told about it, in which case the cadre told him it was disrespect to an NCO and was recycled

Rangers, week 2 is over, cole range was a good time :shock: I got to visit the pleasent woodline a few times, and visit a nice "vitamin" fortified pond at about 0230 for a nice little workout. It was hard just like I figured it to be but certainly not hard enough to make me quit. our class...

Rangers, I arrived at RIP today, and will most likely be in hold for at least one month as there is a class just starting. Of all the Riggers who have recently come down to RIP, only one has actually made it long enough to even start a class. They have all dropped for various reasons ranging from l...

Ranger Tenn-RGR, They told us we had to do 60% to enter RIP and 70% to graduate. The last RIP class that just graduated today had a lot of guys get recycled because of the final P...
