And it wasnt established until around the 80's when only officers were aloud to have pistols in the military. Also the Manufacturing of the m16 was cheaper than the thopmson during vietnam due to the parts they were assembled with. And General PArkins said that he prefer a m1 6 round over a 45 caliber round any day due to the amount of vietcong kia they had in the area. And also the thompson was a deadly weapon at close range so that s why the thompson was more feared by americans than vietnam commies beacuse the cong woul pick up tommys and ambush americans from close quarter like in Phu Bai valley or in The battle of Chan La where american gi sustained heavy loses and most of them were due killed by their very own weapons such as the thompson. | |

be careful i saw someone with an M14 GBB with real wood and the wood was really dry and was splintering, he says its like having a tree if you dont wet it every so often it tends to warp out of place and can screw up ur gun. | |

| DEVIN is right, but if you ever fired a real steel .308 (7.62x51 is military, .308 civilian,) i can easily predict that full auto would be impractical lol. my dad's ol' .308 hunting rifle will leave a bruise after 30 shots easy. | |

| yup Panda you're right haha. the way the stock is attached to the reciever (no pistol grip) it makes the recoil very heavy.
but damn the airsoft version is sexy. | |
