EDIT: Except for the lights on the last two M14's... CQB with a 12lb rifle? I think not. LOL

Yeah... Not quite sure what you're on about here...

Why do you put a light on the end of a rifle? To illuminate a target up close.

Fighting in close quarters is called "Close Quarters Battle" aka "CQB".

Those rifles are long and heavy, not at all suited to CQB.

That was my point...

Maybe in the process of moving from one position to another a 240 gunner went through a building... but no element whose LT has his head on straight would send their gunner into a building to clear rooms. No freakin way.

I was looking at some other 1911's, What are your views on Kimber? Any bad/good experiences?

No personal experience but there is a lot of Kimber info here...

Thanks again couch!

Never owned a Kimber but my good friend has had a few that I've fired. They are great pistols, well built with great finishes. You definitely pay for it though, but it's not unreasonable for the quality of pistol you get.

If you are what you're implying you are, then you are more man than I and I admit defeat in this.

check out what i just got from my grandfather for a cleaning and lube job. It was my great grand fathers in world war one. He had it on his side down in mexico leading men in the chase of poncho villa and also on his side through a stent in england and a short one across europe. Once home he had to buy his weapon from the military for $15. After WW1 my grandfather had it on his side throughout WW2 in many places including panama and guam. In 1949, after my grandfather got back and graduated college my great grandfathers neighbor, who was a shooting coach for some award winning army shooting team offered my great grand father an opportunity to send the gun back to colt, who his shooting team was endorsed by, to be "remanufactured". From what i take the gun was re-blued after a re-finish. It is all of the original parts and original grips. Only thing that looks suspect is the main spring housing, it doesn't have the loop. Anyway, check it out. It is a Colt m1911 from 1913.

They are great but its only a year warranty and they become broken suddenly on the 365th day.
