I have to admit, I think the stainless barrel, in this case, detracts from the overall appearance of
the M1A (M14 look alike). But, that may be 'cause I earned my medal with the original M14 back in
'65.

Likewise '67. It was a really good shooting gun. I was hitting man
sized targets out to 300 yards using standard iron sights.

During the qualification, I missed two targets - both at 50 yards. Forgot to aim low. No problem
with the long distance shots. ****ed me off!

It's an easy mistake to make. I recall doing something similar on a
target even closer than 50 yards.
