If I was not still going to be in the sandbox during this time frame I'd be on this like a fat kid on a box of Ho-Ho's.

Oh what the hell. I'm in. I can't remember the last 3 day I took. It'll give me a chance to try the 5.45 upper in a higher round count class.

I guess that mad money I had set aside for a new gun will go to a class instead.

Oh, I'm going to have to talk to the spousal unit about this one. I have been looking for a chance to really work out my new hk416.
