LSAT tastes like schnozberries

Never spank your crank with LSAT.



 

lol, we sure did in the big army. MK19s got emplaced on TI for overrun defense, as they had very limited effectiveness against afghan compound walls and we got in trouble for using them to clear IEDs out of culverts.

M2 for the road, Mk19 for the house.

He never seemed full of shit.... just "off" a little. Whenever he was down or in a shitty mood, he would ride his four wheeler over to the house and we would drink beer until we ran out. HE was deaf as a fucking post though.

so route clearance was a MK 19 ......

Ha...I discovered that in Somalia (at the 1-way range, not 2-way).  It's like throwing a baseball...you can just look at the target and know the range by eyeball.

At Camp Santiago in P.R., we were shooting across a valley from one mountain range to another...45 second flight time.

A MK19..on a bradley fighting vehicle..????...perhaps he.meant ASV.

When I was a young man back in 1996, I was in MCT (Marine Combat Training for non-infantry Marines). Anyways, we got 7 round belts of the training rounds to shoot. The Marine in front of me got the T&E dialed in so my plan was to go up and let loose all 7 rounds, something we were told not to do. But fuck that, it would be worth it. So 19 year old me happily runs up to to the mk19, just in time for the trainer to look at me give the T&E a spin with the force of a 1000 suns. Needless to say, the gun is no longer dialed in. He wouldnt even let me attempt to dial it in. tells me to shoot one round at a time until I have it back on target. I get it on target with 2 rounds left which I of course fired in FA. Damm what could have been great was destroyed.

One day I will be rich and a class 3 manufacturer just so I can have a mk19.

DoD still hasn't officially decided which of these it is, we call it a grenade launcher sometimes, a machine gun other times.

IIRC, it was procured and fielded in the U.S. as a grenade launcher, but we were reporting to to Wassenaar as a machine gun for years.

it's wide enough to tuck your head behind when taking incoming rounds up in the turret.


also, in some situations you can't get it to elevate up high enough...it's a good weapon to keep people pinned until helicopters or artillery/ mortars arrive

LOL it sure as hell is!

 

my cousin swore by the mk 18 in nam on pbr's.  I told him about the mk 19 and he was very interested.
