KIWI Gun Trainer

Saturday Morning Drill
CLASSIFIED

I had cuzzin ricky check out this Kiwi (Australia Jr.) sniper training software while he was over there buying mutton.  I told him to negotiate a license for Barn Army use if it was any good, and he did.  The bargain he struck (or rather they stuck him with) depleted funds earmarked to bring the B-52's lady's toilet up to code (we need a sanitary napkin dispenser and gel filled toilet seats.  I can't believe how expensive that dispenser is ).  So, while it will keep us grounded in the short term, our need to shape up shooting skills is critical.  Even though we use the M-1 Garand in lieu of the Steyer rifle, cuzzin ricky said it's of no consequence.  By the way, this post is classified, and not to be linked to.  All Barn Army members are expected to practice over the weekend (even 11 Star Vice General Kim).  Carry on.

I can do much better with a Mosin-Nagant over open sights than with a 5.56mm Aug

Asshole needs to learn the concept of "holding his breath".

crikey, what a heavy breather!

Don't think you'll be breathing heavy after topping a ridge with armor, weapons, and ruck & when bullets are going both ways...:D

Are figure 8 patterns old fashioned?

Thats fun, it doesn't really get the concept of natural point of aim. Kind of Euro-silly what with the scope and all. Marines start at 200 Meters with irons sights. I mean come on. Maybe if the rifle didn't look like a RonCo Pocket Fisherman it would be accurate. Semper!

I hate to break it to you anon, but Casca II is finishing his tour at the School of Infantry at Camp Lejeune, and all Marines qual with optics now. Those of us who learned with iron sites are now officially dinosaurs.

BTW, what bullshit... they count headshots as misses? If you can't put it between his eyes inside of 100 meters, ya got no game.

Good find, Rodge!
Doesn't penalize my lousy trigger pull.

Remington's Top Shot is a better program.

It's a diversion for knuckle dragging wanna-be's, for Christ's Sake.

Many of you have a Way Too Inflated perspective of yourselves.

I wonder how many of you Big Talkers have done the deed for real....???

"Casca" (whatever that means) is obviously living his pathetic life vicariously through "Casca II" ... who will be, no doubt, pulling his service time in the mess area, just like his Ol' Man.

Get a life guys!

Thor, thanks for the supporting fires, but these nasty sorts just wander away on their own. No need to play democrat and amend the record.

Actually, I do live vicariously though him, and many others. He hasn't been so interesting since he married.

Casca

Publius Servilius Casca Longus (aka Casca in Julius Caesar by W Shakespeare) was one of the assassins of Gaius Julius Caesar.
I prefer that to "helmet."

Doug, you erudite devil, I seized upon the nom de guerre during the Clinton years. Read the interactions of Casca with the other players, and tell me if you don't find it apropos... or was it Barry Sadler's immortal mercenary? Alas, his series is culturally lost, and damned expensive in the original paperback versions.

^Ahhh, here 'tis: Casca's lines and cues.
"Speak hands for me!" Yeah, a good one.
