I wonder if they're talking about the actual fielding timeframe. I don't know if that's normal but I recall that it took quite awhile for the M16 to get down to everyone. Maybe it would've been less if the priority hadn't been VN opns. Then again, when I was at Ord for BCT we had M14's but if you were headed across post to 11B school you got the new fangled plastic rifle. Is this one of those things that unpromotable Majors figure out in the puzzle palace?
