M1A Question

Stripper clips

If you don't see any ".308" stripper clips you can also use 8mm Mauser ones. These should be plentiful and cheap because of all the dirt-cheap 8mm ammo out there right now.

The .308, .30-06 and 8mm all fit in the same strippers. I think the SKS strippers might work, too. Not sure about that though.

"What in heck are they shootin at?" These guys & gals on "the Love Boat" are probably shooting at a floating target for "fam fire" with the weapons (familiarization firing) in case they are responsible to guard against rubber boats full 'o bombs.

Karsten - they probably are wearing hearing "pro" - probably the "yellow foamies." Military generally doesn't hand out earmuffs when shooting to qualify (different for the shooting teams).

Semper fi,
Bruegger out.
