Ive never served in The USA. Ive served in Internal Troops of Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs, What you guys call spetnaz. My whole family has served, Some with The US Marine corp and some over in the russian armed forces.
Yes it makes sense logistically. And it makes sense. My age by the way is 31.
As Ive seen it, the military of this country is alot more organized. The armed forces In the USA Are less corrupt and not rife with disagreements. Soldiers serving in the armed forces over in russia often brung thier own weapons, usually personalized pistols as back-up weapons.
Warrant and commissioned officers are allowed when it's signed off by someone higher up in their command, usually an O-6 (full bird colonel) or higher. I have a good friend of mine that is a retired Marine Captain that brought his Springfield XD 45 with him in 2004 - 2005, and I've also seen an Army CWO2 here on the FOB that I'm located carrying his personal Glock just last year.

You can't fire M203 rounds in a MK19. The M203 uses low velocity rounds the MK19 uses high velocity rounds. The MK19 grenade is 40mm x 53mm and the 203 is 40mm x 46mm."2 DO NOT try to take a gernade out of the MK19 and fire it in your M203."
I had a Sgt Maj tell me that he used to do that all of the time, but he didnt want to catch me doing it because we where short on MK19 ammo. I stood the two rounds side by side and am pretty sure that if you can get the ring off the 19 round w/o damaging it you still couldnt get it to close in the 203.
