Are there anythings particular to the M1a i should check when inspecting the rifle? They told me it's "as new, only shot a few times".. But any way i could inspect that short of magnafluxing the barrel and receiver for cracks (not a practical option anyway)

I'll try and borrow a borescope from a friend

Well you got me on the permit

but the meter, is part of the metric system, whereas you boys still use the slightly modified system of measurement installed by your colonial overlords

The rest of the world uses a system based on logic, easily scaled up or down in 10th's or 100th's instead of requiring fractions...
I think only Burma, Liberia still use what you use

Yeah, but I can hit a man sized target consistently at 500 yards with an M-16 with open iron sights..would that be like a bazillion meters?

Well, i'm glad there's plenty of meters of Atlantic in between us, and i'm safe from yer iron consistency sight

I think we can do alright here

This is 200 yards with a M4. Mike ]
