Compare this defensible position to that here 12-262 Garand Picture of the day I'd choose this one if given the choice between the two.

No contest...the tank helps too!

Is that a 1903A4 w/Unertl (?) that the guy on the ground looking at the tank has in his hand? Enlarge the photo and let us know what you think.

Looks like it. Great big long one with about a 40 mm objective lens??

[Tom in N.J.]

No, that's a M1903A1 with an Unertl, the one and only '03A4 with interchangeable scopes was in "Saving Private Ryan".... a movie day dream...

It always made me crack up. Plus, do you adjust those unertl's on the objective like he did? I was thinking not. I thought they were fixed power. But I've never handled one.

No but it was good for the movie...

Hehehhehehe. I just got it on netflix so I can watch it for the umpteenth time.
