you succeded in that how?

 

 

(if my guess on how you did that is correct, the question is, what cal. now?)

 

We were training with the SWAT team and we was at the range dealing with M-16's and M-9's. We were practicing pivot firing on his part and the only issue was that it was a pretty small range so we were kinda close. (why weren't we staggered I have no clue) Anyhow during the 180 degree pivot we turned and fired and the guy next to me that fired, a brass M-16 casing flew and went right into my collar. I was holding the rifle in one hand (putting it on safe) while desperately trying to remove the hot brass from my neck (trying to move it so it wouldn't burn in one place for so long). Didn't work. I managed to grab it and toss it somewhere but not before I had a searing blister on the left side of my neck.

 

It is healing up quite well though. It didn't hurt when they stuck two needles in it to drain it.

ouch! hot brass sucks, for some reason the shells coming out of my SKS are never hot enough to burn, but ive been hit in the arm by .45 shells before, but never as bad as that, hope it don't scar.

 

(btw, what do you think of the M16 and M9?)

Hot brass is funny. It is SCALDING hot (second degree burn hot) when it first comes out but man does it cool quickly. Really quickly. Those few seconds though did the damage. It probably scarred me (the mark is still there but healing, no more blistering or fear of infection) but no matter, I wasn't born to be cute anyways.

 

I like the M-16. May be somewhat unwieldy but it is a relatively good weapon in my view. I prefer the M-4 though. It is more compact, I can get better shots off with it because I can tuck it in really close, and of course it is smaller. Since I haven't fired any other rifle, I cannot compare it to anything else. Same case with the M-9. And I am quite good with the weapon, I don't have many problems with it, I can easily fix a jam with it, I can fire it relatively accurately and like most pistols, it is two handed. Something I am quite used to.

yeah, hot brass is one of those wonderus little things that inflict massive ammounts of pain and swearing, just to have a buddy pick it up and ask what the big deal was. insult to injury

hm, you're one of the first people to give those guns a good review. i personally think the gas system of the M16 makes it kinda unfavorable, and i prefer a large cal. weapon, if only they still made the H&K G3.

 

and is the M9 that easy to conduct matinence on? i personally hate the 9mm round, i'm a big fan of the .45, but i will end up needing to use the M9 eventually in the military

Exactly. I got clowned hard and sadly that is the one thing I will be most remembered for. Oh well, everyone gotta have some sort of "dirt" on them.

Well simply because I like firing weapons and the M-16/M-4 are the only assault rifles I ever fired. I heard the G36K's are better and the XM-8 was awesome. I think they cancelled it though for whatever reason. One of my favorite weapons to fire though would have to be the old M-60. I was wasting targets left and right with it.

It is the only pistol I ever fired however it is easy to conduct maintenance on. Very simple weapon, easy to take apart, easy to assemble. Most people hate them though and want the .45 back. The main drawback I have heard about the M9 is its stopping power. Not particularly powerful. I heard rumors of reinstating the .45 caliber back into the military. Only time will tell.

I love my Colt .45 ACP.

But I think the .40 cal is pretty damn good too. I believe most law inforcment agengies are going to that.

the XM-8 was shut down for some reason, it was the product of the OICW being too heavy so they broke it up into the XM-8 and XM-25. the XM-8 is actually an H&K gun that we 'revamped' and the G36K is a very trusty H&K gun, but i don't like that it is the same Cal. as the M16, the .223 (5.56MM) just does not do it for me, i prefer the .308 WIN. (7.62x51MM Nato) or the M-60 round. the G3 G33 and other varients by H&K were the all mighty gods of assault rifles. i like the new M-60 E4 that they have, 500 rounds straight on one belt without over heating the berrel.

yes, i'm one of those .45 people, and (thank god) the marines are bringing back the M1911 .45, it's a very nice cyote brown and it looks like it will fix the BS 9MM problem. other service members with socom and in other areas will get a .40 (10MM) version of the M1911. they will be made i beleave by para-ordenence

and the marines MEU never stopped using the .45 lol

yeah the .40 (10mm) is very good, a bit smaller than the .45 (hell it's allmost a .50 CAL.) but retaining knock-down power. ted nugent has killed a watter buffalo with a glock 10mm

Fuck girls who don't think about the consequences.

 

Fuck girls who play adult games without thinking about what they truly doing.

 

Fuck not being able to fix a situation you really have no control over.

 

Fuck it all.
