I got one as well if that is the M1... I can't see photos at work.

It'll come in handy for the coming revolution...;)

Oh, ammo is not so easy to find, you can get match grade pretty easy, but the cheaper stuff for target practice is more difficult to find.

haha - definitely not - i asked the range shop if they'd hang a plaque in my honor

they didnt know what i was talking about

couldnt believe how packed the range was today - LOTS of AR shooters out there

and that M1 "PING"?....yeah thats a really distinctive noise - really cool

As opposed to that massive kaboom of the 30-06 round? And it's more of a "ping" sound. ;)
