Sorry, my father's a two-tour Nam Marine and he'd pretty much just kick my ass if I made that mistake. So I don't. :P Besides, if you're talking about stupid mistakes and then you make one... -evil grin-

Some of us younger guys, however, don't play with mouse guns.

That's not an AR.

Oh, yeah, also? Direct impingement suuuuucks. Even Stoner regretted that idea later on.

In my platoon, during my time there, we were much more concerned about keeping each other alive than we were over stupid semantics.

Thank your father for his service and Semper Fidelis. I’m glad I didn’t serve with him, kicking your kids ass for something he had not heard since boot camp is not the kind of man I want on my team. No disrespect to him, I don’t think we would get along.

Or as some have called it...A bang...bang...jam rifle.

I’ve never fired one but it is what I’ve read.
