Sarge, my dang knees hurt... Ain't gonna crawl around on the ground for fun...
Heck, I'll shoot with you for money tho (grin)... I've even got a Garand that ain't bad - but I'd rather shoot a Panda or a Grizzly, both of which are in Six stocks with Jewell triggers...
BTW, got "expert" in grenade, but only "marksman" in rifle in basic training... Why? My group's firing point for the big test was severely overgrown, and everyone in my group flunked. Couldn't see the dang pop up targets. Finally, we bitched enough, and the DI actually looked at the numbers, and looked at us, and figured "hey, some of these guys were doing pretty darn well in practice," and jumped down in the hole himself, and told the range master to set him up. He flunked. So we got the reward of spending a coupla hours with swingblades making sure we could see stuff... couldn't just move us to a different point. Gotta love the Army... And since we didn't qualify on the first round, they just gave us the "marksman" pins... Sigh...
