Mix of everything, M1s, an M14 and a 1903A3 down there...
Enjoyed the lack of subtlety!
Gee
I wonder which one is the ugly:cool:
Are we talking about Bill & Hillary ! :rofl:
Am I correct in assuming these are demilled, non-functional rifles made to look very pretty? Even still a bayonet on a 9 pound stick can still issue a lot of hurt.
Any significance to the weapon each particular branch is holding as in 03 vs M1 vs M14?
I'm thinking these are honor guard rifles, like drill team rifles. Those are unserviceable and missing parts.Quote:

Something every American needs to witness.
And...he'd never stretch the truth... You can SEE the tomb sentries' rifles aren't loaded. No mags. Anyway, the ones in the first pic are honor guard, right? I did tons of that and never had ammo.Quote:
