Never saw a P-51, either. Interesting, you can buy both the P-38 and P-51 from Amazon, but my Google-fu can't find much on the B-52.

Dumba** civilians, the P-51 WAS the B-52. Check here http://www2.iath.virginia.edu/sixties/H ... s_A_C.html to see there WAS such a thing.

Lets go back to the M-14.

If that isn't an option we could make an M-14, put it in a fancy Tacticool stock and call it the M-41. :-P

It's also not long enough to bust open a case of C's. Oops, I'm dating myself here. MRE cases are probably tear open.
Actually they don't.

They use so much glue it's quite hard to open one.

I picked up five P-38s at the last show for $2.00. Opening tin cans with an M-4 just wasn't cost effective.

Last weekend, my brother and I were out shooting guns. He had one of those spinning targets made of steel plates. 3/4" thick.

I must have been tired because when I asked him what calibers these targets could handle, he said "Up to .44 Magnum", I must have heard, "Go ahead and shoot your M1 Garand at it".

So I did. There were three big holes in it. Not 8 because the third bullet made the target go down like an innocent bystander.

My brother didn't get mad. He just shrugged, set the target back up and commenced to perforating the steel plates again.

He was shooting my AR15 (full length 20" barrel). He got five hits, 3 clean through holes and two humorous looking dents that retained some bits of the bullets inside.

So, your M16 poodle shooter, with the right kind of ammo, has a very good chance of hitting said poodle if it is standing on the opposite side of 3/4" 's of steel from you.

And turning a Garand or M14 in a tight hallway is about as easy as opening a bag of MREs without a knife.
