Basenshukai, I've felt your pain about doing more with less. I know I'm off topic but have you tried getting 45's out of war stock. You wouldn't believe the stuff the military keeps in storage. That's how 5th Grp got theirs in 2003-2004 (can't remember). They were found by a motivated company commander. Another option, if you like your pistols crew served, go to your AKO and search jos2009. Download the PDF and go to page A-7.
Yep, I went to the JOS Warehouse and got a bunch of stuff we needed, but was not in the "system". A lot of it was very useful during the deployment. But, I still think we should have these things in our own inventories without having to "out source".
