On Wed, 5 Feb 2020 08:06:55 -0800 (PST), Tim - show quoted text - All of the 30-06 we had on the ship was AP, in M1 clips. (dated 1945) My dad said that was all they issued toward the end of the war because it would punch through almost anything. That was pretty handy in street fighting. If several guys unloaded on someone behind a brick wall, they would poke a hole in it and a 30-06 could punch through lightly armored vehicles. —— It’s amazing what AP 30 ought can do to 3/8 cold steel plate compared to standard FMJ |

Never fired any of these. Hopefully will get the chance. I don't expect it will be with any of the Maryland Shooters though, eh Krause? -- Freedom Isn't Free! |
