Just Cringe Worthy

Imagine taking a M4 carbine back in time and telling them it was our nation's standard issue military rifle in 2019. Take a round out and showing them what 21st century soldiers are using in war.
Bet they'd have a good laugh.

Right up til when you showed them what full automatic did.

"civilized warfare"

If ever there was an oxymoron contest, there is the winner.

What about buck and ball?
One .68 caliber ball topped with three .32 balls?
That's my preferred musket load.

We’ve all read of extremely high Ammo counts per dead enemy from WW1 thru WW2 thru Korea and Nam, with the numbers escalating after WW2. A direct result of more automatic weapons on the field I suppose.
Does the Army/Marines even teach marksmanship or is it all “spray and pray”.

There are a few Civil War rounds I have, they were excavated in the mid 1890s and sold as souvenirs.
