I got to shoot a pistol for the first time yesterday...


[:p] First time for my XD anyway, still isn't broken in though, but it was nice to go to the range and put a couple hundred rounds through it, since its 150 miles away..[B)]

    I was going to say, I don't think my .40 rounds went that far, but you never know it is one of those scary black semi auto types...

    Those are SAWs. Technically machine guns, but they're not truly considered to be "crew-served" weapons since they can achieve 100% effectiveness with one soldier.

    Besides, the Marine on the left is standing rear guard while a squad or team runs between him and the building. They're not in the same team or squad.

    all very good points, when i carried one i carried 200rds on the gun 400 on my body and another 200 in assault bag. I dont think id be standing up pulling rear security with saw, but hey i dont know the situation so i cant judge.
