[QUOTE="USMC30, post: 370129, member: 23637"] Thanks for the confirmation that I am on the right track. I will let you guy's know how my rifle performs. I had a similar experience when I was at Parris Island with bad weather on qualification day and ended up wearing a sharp shooter badge as well. Thankfully, my resere unit was scheduled to go to the range four months after I was attached. I was able to talk my way into the firing line and get my expert badge. I am thankful for the training I received and have been able to retain most of what I learned. The training at 300 and 500 yd. have been of great value. There is just something about a marine and a M-16 A2 service rifle that cannot be replaced. The modern rifles and optics are impressive but I think I will always be more impressed with a 500 yd shot with iron sights. Most of my buddies from the marines still shoot. We have traded in our old M-16's for AR-15's and have a good time at the range. [/QUOTE]
