We've all had the moment where your heart stops and you take a moment to think, " Where the gently caress is my rifle. " Did you leave it in the mock armory in the C-can? Or did you just leave it at the dfac?


I put mine between the lining of the rain guard and my tent. When I awoke it was missing! Boy I'll tell you the corporals who had it were not forgiving. Digging an L shape fighting pit in the woods is some tough work. My battle buddy sure as hell wasn't happy either. Sorry battlebuddy.

Dodd is an American hero, all you do is slander his wife, whom denies everything.

Your command, unit, and friends all now hate you for trying to bring a good man down.

Dodd is British. Someone hasn't been reading the Commandant's list and will not be clearing PFC anytime soon, rah?

Alright fuckstain, grab some 550 cord and make a tiedown for your loving rifle. Well how loving long is arm's length?! That's how long it needs to be.

Cut a loving hole in your shorts and attach it through that. I don't give a gently caress what you're wearing, your weapon's gonna be tied down to you at all times now.

Bottom of the gun pit we just spent all morning filling and returfing.

When we were putting up hesco barrier on he c-o-b our PSG told us, without anything provoking him to say this, to make sure we didnt leave our rifle on top of the hesco when the dump truck came to drop dirt in them.

And it didn't really click at that point but all dumb rules and suggestions get put in because someone probably did it before, right?

We had some Navy Seabees at my FOB. Never really interacted with them, they had their own b-huts and just did their own thing most of the time. They'd go to Bagram from time to time when they needed to unload supplies from cargo planes.

A couple days after a resupply, our TOC got a call from one of the Air Force pilots who flew resupply missions. "Hey, are any of you missing a pistol? My guys found a Beretta on the plane, serial number blah blah blah."

Lo and behold, a Seabee left his pistol on the plane, realized it was missing when he got back to the FOB, and kept quiet because he was convinced it would turn up eventually. Meanwhile he was frantically searching every nook and cranny on the camp. I can only imagine the green (blue?) weenie got him pretty hard for that.



Somebody else left his pistol in the portashitter. This one was found by a Sergeant Major. We got a mass-blast email to everyone on the FOB "If you are missing a pistol, report to SGM xxxx to pick it up." No idea what poor soldier or sailor lost his weapon, but I'm sure they had a fun conversation with the SGM about it.

My M9 in Korea was like a bunch of zeros and something stupidly low like 834.

It was flogged the gently caress out.

Ask me about Proposition 305


Do you like muskets?
My driver in Iraq was some dude fresh out of AIT who caught up with us after we'd been there for a couple months. Can't remember what his name was. Dude was some weird support MOS.

Constantly left his M4 laying around and I really didn't want the inevitable shitshow that would happen if he'd left it somewhere, so I was constantly telling him "keep it within arm's reach. If you're going to go talk to someone someplace else, take it with you." Yeah, it never worked.

So one night he goes to the MWR to make a phone call home and, sure enough, he leaves his M4 leaning against the wall in the little phone booth. Next guy to go in there found themselves a rifle of their own to do with as they pleased. Luckily for my driver, the next guy in was an NCO from our platoon that our platoon sergeant deferred pretty much everything to and was big on keeping discipline an in house matter as much as possible.

Then he went AWOL coming back from his two weeks of leave.

Dude's probably an E6 by now.

It's how her species communicates

Left my rifle on the catwalk in the pits at the Quantico range. We were all lined up to leave and I was oblivious to the fact that I had left that poo poo on the hook. The safari hatted dude yelled out who left their loving rifle and I snuck out of the formation and walked up all Joe Cool and said I was throwing away the last of the trash, picked up my poo poo, and walked away.

I had a raggedly A2 in boot. Never saw an arms room at AIT, another old A2 in Korea, followed by an A2 at Campbell. That didn't last, because they said, "hey we have crew serve weapons these morons can carry around" and I was handed a SAW to carry for my deployment and last year in.

Had a guy in my unit that left his rifle in his room to go shower, only for a rocket to hit the building and him to walk up all oblivious and out of uniform. He had to sneak past EOD and climb in a window to get his SAW out and back to the company building. Then there was one idiot they made carry a SAW without the bolt because he constantly forgot his weapon everywhere and he tried lighting a puddle of zippo fluid on the floor to take a picture of it in some "awesome" pattern he laid out. That formed into a puddle. So he kept spraying out more. That kept puddling.

Thank gently caress the BN CO walked around the corner and caught him mid-act with his shirt tucked into his underwear.

I always shot at least sharpshooter (29-35/40) and mostly expert with the A2. I played with an M4 at a range in Iraq, and while I liked how it felt, I was already too used to the A2. Also played with an auto AK with a stupid jamming 75 round drum, couple random british issue weapons because they had people at our range that day. Probably my favorite day in Iraq.
