Very good. You are correct with the calibre.

Of course I am, I actually own several examples of the platform, well also actually training with their select fire cousins.......

Can you quote what SPORTS stands foir? Com' on, you pretend to be an expert, it should just roll off your tongue.

Slaps, pulls, observes, releases, taps, squeezes...........

Pretty close. The last S is either shoot or safety, depending on if you're just on patrol in "bad boy" country or in a full on fight. Otherwise well done.

No, the last "S" is to squeeze the trigger........if you were going to safe the gun, you'd perform remedial action.

So, do you know now, which letter applies to the forward assist? Clearly if you knew what you were talking about, namely clearing a A-15/M-16/M-4 platform in battlefield conditions, applying immediate action, you'd understand the importance of the forward assist.

Well at XE the S is for just what I said. On patrol you want to be loaded but you don't want to accidently shoot your buddy ahead of you.

More BS.......Immediate action and the use of the forward assist is only applied when in contact with an enemy and the stoppage is life or death....if you were concerned with safety, performing remedial action is the safer taught method to all involved, well ensuring your rifle is in proper working order.

If you ever get the chance to go the Moyock let me know, I have a bunch of unused meal tickets you can have. Make sure you take a soft sleeping bag though.

Right.........

One observes the ejection of a live round/spent cartridge, ensuring the chamber is clear of blockage.

Close. One observes a live round has correctly arrived in the chamber. Keep in mind this is an excersize you do before you shoot so there would not yet be a spent round stuck somewhere yet.

No......SPORTS is designed to address a weapons malfunction........The first "S" is to ensure the follower is working correctly, with "P" bringing a new round to battery.....

Nope. SPORTS is designed to address if you would perhaps pick up a weapon you weren't sure of and how to make it functional. The first "S" is to make sure the clip is firmly in place. You are correct on the "P" After that the "O" ensures the round has arrived in the chamber correctly.

No......SPORTS is for a malfunction with an M-16 family of rifle...........

When you first pick up any firearm, you PROVE it safe.....

The "O" in SPORTS is observing a live round/spent casing leaving the chamber after you've Pulled ("P") the charging handle back.......The "O" in PROVE is to observe the chamber is clear.

Well they have a different version of it at Moyock. As I pointed out before, there version of it you do before you fire. And the last "S" you choose depending on how soon you may think you might fire.

You're full of it.......Outside of a weapons malfunction, nobody would apply the forward assist unnecessarily to a M-16/AR-15/M4 rifle…….. :rolleyes:

You're waaaaay out of your depth on this subject mater, and your continued line of BS doesn't fool anyone that has actually operated a M-16/AR-15/M4 rifle....

Now, care to explain why sight alignment & picture would play a factor in the police shooting of Brown?

SPORTS is waht you do to safe a weapon. If you don't know that then I'm wasting my time here. But as I say if you ever get the chance to go get some real training I'll fwd those unused meal tickets from XE. Food's great. So's the training. They fire a million rounds a month they continue to brag about while you're there.

No it's not.........FM 3.22.9 of the US Army field manual, and has been applied by all users of the M-16 family since the incorporation of the forward assist after the initial failures in the field during Vietnam……….

I have forgotten more on the subject of firearms then you will ever gleam by reading the posts of others on your video game forums!!!!

How does Blackwater apply SPORTS to their SOCOM M-14s, AK-47s, Wilson Combat 870s, Mossberg 590A1s and M-9/92Fs ?????? :lol:

Well the they must have changed it since I was there, although I doubt tha,t so go play your video games. But like I say if you ever get to the real world, take a good sleeping bag. Those beds at tehBlackbear Inn are hard.

SPORTS has been in continued usage for the M-16 family since the 1960s!!!!!

And no, I don't play video games, fore (outside of the AK) I own (Multiple) variants of the actual guns that you claimed (very poorly) to have used during your bogus claimed period of employment at Blackwater!!!!

Now please, explain how sight alignment and picture would have been applied by officer Wilson during the shooting of Michael Brown……..be it Brown advancing or retreating to/from Wilson….
