They do look sharp
Have you noticed that troops with the long rifles look sharper marching and doing the manual of arms then troops with the Mattel M-16.

RE: They do look sharp
Yes, they do, and having done the US manual of arms with the M1, the M14 and the M16, your comment about the Mattel M16 is right on the money.
BUT, mightn't they look smarter with those SMLE's you Diggers surplussed awhile back? Bob Potter

Re: RE: They do look sharp
Back in 63 I did the manual of arms and marched with M1 and BAR the felt like real weapons. In our reserve unit you got the BAR if the sarget did like you.
