[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Anyone Remember DA Pam 750-30?

Was rummaging through a box last weekend and found it. It's the old comic book style "The M16A1 Rifle: Operation and Preventive Mainteneance" pamplet. It's dated June 28, 1968. This thing is very politically uncorrect. The main character is a cutie in tight slacks. Also has a couple of appearances by "Charlie" speaking in broken english and transposing his Rs and Ls. I don't even remember where I got it.

Yup, I not only remember, I have some for the M-14 and E-2. Gotta remember they were written for us young kids, hence the comic book style, to keep our interest. Should be some neat tips in it. I also have another one printed in Japan in B&W.

Mine is dated 1Jul69. I don't know what exactly was revised, but does your's have a section on the XM-177 "Shorty"? It is strictly un-PC and a great piece of history.

Another great one is DA PAM 23-2, "Hits Count". This is THE definative military manual on how to shoot.

DocZox sent me one a while back, so I have one including the xm177 part.

It is viewable and downloadable at my website

Keep in mind that I scanned it optimized for printing so it's a large file. Adobe Acrobat needed. Also it's on a slow server so it might test your patience a bit.
