+1 on the out of spec bolt. Should NOT be able to assemble that way!
I like to imagine that it didn't fit, and the guy just forced it in there that way, and ****ed shit up.
I know that probably isn't the reality, but I've seen a lot of stupid people, and it was the first thing that came to mind.
I hate it when people say that.
Accross every MOS, the 03XX occ field has one of the highest ASVAB averages and the highest T&R task completion of any occ field.
Yeah, there are still idiot 03's, but taking the time to actually train people and teach them how to be self-sufficient goes a long way to preventing these kind of issues.
Heard of this, never seen evidence of it before. Huh, kinda neat....in the "that's f**ked-up!" kinda way.
Definitely a good "teachable moment" item, for a switched-on NCO to do a hip-pocket class on weps inspection.
That the sort of thing that an armorer should be picking up during LTI, PFI, or which XYZ sort of interval/inspection?
