Hi Marvin,

I agree with you on the M-16; IMHO, the bullet weight was too light for a jungle environment. I did have *spectacular* results, however, with an M-14 that I "acquired" from an atypical source of supply.

I arranged to have the barrel clipped just ahear of the gas cylinder nut and had the stock bobbed just past the pistol grip. Pappa San obligingly braised two 20 round mags together for me and i *engineered* the two mag springs so that I could accomodate 17 rounds.

This baby was my brush gun and was exceptionally effective at getting bad guys out of bamboo. I ALWAYS had noise superiority!

Tom
