A buddy who's a STA Plt. Sgt. with a 1stMARDIV unit tells me they do have some A3 chasis rifles now. Though, not to the shegrin of the shooters. Complain the stock is just too bulky/heavy in comparrison to the older A1 platform. Just some intel I thought I'd pass on.

TS:
Agreed with your "intestinal fortitude" comment. Hmmm...seems you have the lingo down. Closet jarhead? Just joking. Definitley conduct some serious wpns. maint. in a Marine line Co.
I don't see a grunt from the blue diamond (or any grunt for that matter) even giving a reporter the time of day. Line Co. Marines have a general distain for the media, and public opinion of their ops is the last thing on their radar. Not to mention the higher-ups will typically issue "gag orders" to their guys.

I concur, story seems a farse!
