I've cut the base down so it fits between the work bench and the reloading bench. So much steadier than putting it on the bench. I'm getting much better measurements. Pictures tomorrow.
My group 437MAW was tasked with "recovering" lost things. You know, diplomats in the middle of riots or when countries collapsed. We had a few Marines that went along with us. Wonderful garden spots. Northern Philippines. Okinawa during their riots. Spain, when Nixon visited France and I don't know where in the South America (Google hadn't been invented). I may have gone to Africa, but my memory is very hazy at times. Technically I was just Fire (as in ready, aim fire) Control Specialist. Somehow I seemed to go to a lot of spots that didn't particularly like us. GREAT TIMES.
