I forwarded this to my son and hi...Jeff,<BR/><BR/>Impressive. I forwarded this to my son and his brother-in-law, Paul. Paul, who is currently stationed with the Army in Germany, responded with the following conversation he had with his infant daughter:<BR/><BR/>Initially I was pretty impressed, so like a good parent I previewed it prior to showing it to my daughter. I found no flaws.<BR/> <BR/>Maddie was initially impressed but had the following comments.<BR/> <BR/>Negatives<BR/>-Did not conduct an initial functions check or check to make sure the weapon was clear<BR/>-Failed to do a PROPER functions check at the end of her reassembly<BR/>-Failed to make sure the gas rings were properly aligned<BR/> <BR/>Positives<BR/>-Good muzzle awareness throughout her sequence<BR/>-Broke the weapon down to include disaasembly of the extractor(normally not done)<BR/>-Good use of the "wrist flick" to ensure the bolt carrier assembly was both properly assembled as well as postioned to engage the extracting handle<BR/> <BR/>Had a good discussion with Maddie on her last "negative" I am not convinced you need to check for gas ring alignment, Maddie out that since the AR-15/M-16/M-4 series rifles use a gas impingement system rather than a short stroke op rod that the gas ring alignment is the most important part of the assembly.<BR/> <BR/>At that point she wanted a formula bottle so we curtailed the discussion.<BR/> <BR/>PaulAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12550428003895769841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-558461285642691762.post-51239244651483591232008-10-28T18:17:00.000-05:002008-10-28T18:17:00.000-05:00that was awesome! she was so excited that she did ...that was awesome! she was so excited that she did it!Becky Meyershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15095465798485641208noreply@blogger.com
