I have a pornographic memory. I remember vivid details of all of it I've ever seen.

I resemble that remark.  ;D

Remember the Playmate of the month for November 1976? I do! I can't remember how to spell her name but her initials are PM. She's so hot she was playmate of the month, the year, the decade, maybe even the millenium.  I'm still in love lust with her.

To Pegleg: M25 is a sniper rifle.

No one to my knowledge has picked up on that. ;D

No prize as of yet, but Merry Christmas ;D ;D

Smart people on this forum. ;)

I figured that out some time ago but can't always remember it. I always remember the M21 and M24 because they were in use when I was in the army. One of my instructors in AIT was a Marine Gunny who showed us the M24 but we didn't get to play with it.

Thanks, like JumboFrank said, sometimes it's a case of 'knowing' but not being able to recall (I chalk it up to too many rounds with the anesthesiologist).  ;)


A little interesting info:

History

Originally developed by the 10th Special Forces Group at Ft. Devens, the M25 was built as a joint services system, meeting the needs of both Army SF and Navy SEAL sniper teams for a semi-automatic sniper rifle built on the same lines as the match grade M14 and M21 semi-automatic rifles. The M25 is not a replacement for existing bolt-action rifles, such as the Army's M24 and the Marine Corps' M40A3, but rather the M25 is intended to serve as a sniper support weapon for the sniper team observer. The M25 will provide the sniper observer with a more effective support weapon than the M16/M203, capable of delivering very accurate fire out to 500 meters. In addition, the M25 will fill a mission specific role as an urban area sniper rifle, where ranges are limited and high rate of fire is the primary concern. Chambered for 7.62mm NATO (.308 Winchester) the M25 is capable of firing any 7.62mm ammunition, though it was designed to fire the same ammunition (M118 and M852 Match and Special Ball ammunition) that the M40A3 and the M24 currently fire.
Description

Physically, the M25 is very similar in appearance to the M14/M21 semi-automatic rifle. The M25 uses National Match grade components, to include barrel, receiver, trigger assembly and spring guide, and a custom built gas cylinder. The barrel is glass bedded to a synthetic McMillan stock and the Advanced Scope Mounting System is manufactured by Brookfield Precision Tool. The M25 has been equipped with a number of scopes, to include the Bausch & Lomb10x Tactical scope, the Leupold Ultra MK4 series (M1 and M3)as well as the Leupold VariX-III LR M3.

I had an M25, Carlos Hathcock M1a, at first it showed great promise, 3" 5 shot groups at 300 yards, and then my scope broke, 8x32 Burris, sent it back and they fixed it and installed a Mildot reticle, but after that, the rifle would not shoot under an inch, and I tried all different types of ammo and reloads, let other good shooters try it and no go, 1 1/2" at 100 yards, finally sent it back, and they rebedded the trigger group, but my faith had been lost, sold it and bought a M40 A3 Marine Corps sniper rifle and it's little sister, same rifle but only weighs 10 lbs, vs 18 for the real deal. I am happy. ;D


A little gun porn.

Thanks for the porn m25op. I like the shooting mat too. Any experience with the Heckler & Koch PSG1? I heard it was VERY accurate for a semi-auto.

Very nice rifles. Did you do the stocks?
A friend just built a Model 700 Remington to US specs to shoot in long range matches over at Ft. Benning.
He found a place that sells surplus (production over-runs) gov't contract 700 barrels. My neighbor is a gunsmith so he installed it for him. Then my friend dura-coated the whole thing flat black. He and another LEO friend of mine (also happens to be the owner of my local range) have a coating business on the side. it turned out well, but I don't have pics yet.

I'm a "Chevy" man by nature, but thought this was a good Ford commercial:
