text: In reply to message48755: LOL! They actually asked me if I would like to fire it, but I took a pass. Talk about face too close. In my combat course we learned every weapon we could possible encounter on the battlefield. I was always the first in line. One day it was time to fire an anti-tank rifle grenade off the barrel of an M-16. Instructions were to aim and then move your face away before firing. I aim. I move my face. I fire. Only problem I didn't keep my face away long enough, and it blew a tooth out of my mouth. Nothing like learning the hard way. Since it happened on the range, for the rest of my life, if something goes wrong with my new tooth, the army will fix it. They take care of their own!
