Anyone else notice the poor condition of the Iraqi personal equipment? It’s a good thing that
they use AK’s. Most weapons would not function with that level of care. And in that gritty
environment, one would have to wonder at the level of functionality they retain. Also, their
storage activities are awful. I wonder how many duds they have with their RPG’s and mortars.
A dud in a mortar is a real ***** when it hangs in the tube, and I would think that a hang fire with an RPG could be an issue too. That thing lights off while you are removing it from the tube, and I bet you don’t count to ten with your fingers any more.
