That's what's known as deployment entertainment.
I got a good laugh.
Thanks Max_Tab

18Bs
OK guys (18B/11B3S & 4S);
I gave you a few hours. We had a funny post about firing a 57mm RCL Rifle and I asked a question about adjusting the back blast/recoil. No replies yet.
Is the back blast/recoil on a 57mm/106mm RCL Rifle(s) set at "The Factory" or can it be adjusted by plates and screws at the Venturie (sp?) Port at the breach block?
Any considerations that need to be taken into acount when bore sighting the 57mm RCL vs the sight picture on the scope when "Bore Sighting".
Hey, I'm just a dumb 12B at heart. The finer points of the weapons MOS are lost on me. I do have a funny story about a 57mm RCL Rilfe I'll tell some day.

I probably have one, in one of the six places I still have stuff stored.
Odds of finding it in a day? Less than zero.
Very organized, Top, I am proud of you.

For some reason a long time ago, I seem to recall a lot more pieces from a 57mm on the poncho in front of me. For something so simple as a a sight, bypod, tube and breach there sure seemed to be a lot of little parts floating around.
Kinda' like that critter that had the 11 cups and cones.

If your Interested QRQ 30, has a thumbnail in the 122 mm rocket discussion of a Ontos. I was T/Oed in it, MOS 0353. It had 6 recoiless rifles. Great little armor vehicle.

Max Tab,
I don't know if it will bother you but your video has been hijacked and posted here:
http://www.big-boys.com/articles/recoilrifle.html
Just though you should know.

Whoever copied it and gave it to big-boys.com without permission needs to step up, admit it, then take your lumps and move out.
So, lets see if the thief has ANY integrity?
Oh BTW, in general its pretty easy to figure out who takes what off of your own server. Maybe that will give you some motivation.

If you are reading this go to the website that stole the video from this website, register, and make them aware (in the comments section) that the video was taken illegally from this copy righted website.

Funny clip, but value added to his compadres who may have had the same idea.
Kinda like the man at the indoor range with the rifle. Gotta find that clip again. Also good stuff.

Posted my comment, the site will let you type in what you want for a comment but reduces your more colorful remarks to elementary school level remarks.
