Congrats, I'm on my way to 24 years.


My current interest is in a battle rifle in .308 with carbine sizing. Something with a folding stock and probably a suppressor. Something that would be easily legal in most of the USA.

I've had a little experience with the M-21 system. 10rds and the Redfield scope made it easy to hit targets at 300-900m. I've since heard some of the 'reservations' about the M-21. I understand your problems with it.

Put 3rds through the M-24 system, but without a spotting scope who knows who hit what.

Most of my "long-range" shooting (out to a klick) was with various battle rifles in .308 using open sights. Opposition learned to stay at least that far away. Got quite expert with the M-8/M-40 system but I don't think I can get a permit for that anymore...
