Wait a minute, except for the rifle range, wouldn't you be using blanks in training?

You've got live fire in training to prepare you for battle. I too have seen stocks with just a few pocks and one that was completely covered front to back. Setting the cartridges was supposed to be done...maybe Bob Seijas can tell us, I think he was issued an M1 at the start of his service...
