So The Texas State Rifle Association is sponsoring an "as issued military rifle" shooting contest......So could someone show up with a nice FNM4. :twisted:

Hmmm, so does that mean I can use the M-14 complete with giggle switch that I was issued in the Navy?

I just want to hear the discussion with the range officer :twisted:
A college room mate of mine who was in the National Guard, reported he got chewed out at the range for squeezing off single shots. The Sgt. told him, "that thar weapon was designed to fire three round bursts at a minimum and I don't wanna hear any more single shots!" Now I hear you can get a semi-auto only version of an M-60.

You can get single shot M240s. We had a Navy officer* detailed to my shop at BAF who bought himself one as an 'end of tour' present.

*Dude was a DINK (wife also Navy), Alaska resident Seahawk pilot, so he was raking in the the deployed money. Also, his call sign was Tackleberry.
