Not everybody in NOLA got looted... this guy Bob Rue has become something of a celebrity thanks to news coverage of the warning he painted on his carpet store:

I was going to buy an old M1 Gerand rifle, but then I bought an M-4 instead Grin

Texas isn't the only state like that, up here in northern Idaho, almost every household has a weapon of some sorts 8)

Do you have any idea how hard it is to shoot a shoot a stationary target 10 yards away?

Back when I was in boot camp, we trained on the fine arts of handling the M-16. We had several clips to shoot with and only a few silloettes for targeting. We had to quickly:

If weapon is jammed:

Slap the bottom of the mag
Pull charge handle to the rear
Observe if chamber is clear
Release handle
Tap forward assist button
SHOOT!!!!!!

One time, a shell casing ejected from my neighbor's rifle and hit me in the corner of the eye. Let me remind you, recently ejected shell casings are still hot as they leave the chamber. OUCH!!!

About as hard as sitting on the loo and reading a newspaper. Grin

I see the Air Force teaches SPORTS also. Did you guys shoot at pop up targets ranging from 50 yards to 300 yards?

When I was at Camp Lajeaune for annual training, we were going through a convoy live fire course and a shell hit a guy in the neck leaving a burn mark a couple inches long
