The round was never intended to be a pistol round. The rifle was bought by the Army for men whose primary weapon was NOT a rifle. In fact out to about 75 meters it is a reasonably accurate weapon with good stopping power. At that range I'd take it over any standard side arm. Given a choice of the carbine or garand I'd take the garand however. Then again I am a big guy and carrying that beast is easy for me. What does this have to do with RAH? Defense against terrorists trying to hijack GA aircraft, homebuilt or otherwise. :-) Matt Heck, my .380 will do that... Richard |

"Harry K" wrote in message om... osite (RobertR237) wrote in message ... I find it passing strange that I have seen/heard no reports of this incident by any news agency except for the cite. Couldn't possibly be that the media doesn't want to point fingers at other media?? Why do you find that strange? Fox does it indirectly, but it has not really helped their credibility much and it invites retaliation from the other networks. (Of course, it is hysterically funny that a comic strip like "Doonesbury" will criticize Fox as being controlled by the Bush administration. Makes you wonder who controls "Doonesbury.") |

Couldn't possibly be that the media doesn't want to point fingers at other media?? Harry K Not too strange, representatives of all the local media were present and knew what was going on. A couple of the local anchors received national coverage from the event and one went on to become a national anchor. Even when some in the media are caught with their pants down, the other media will effectively ignore or downplay the event. You will never see any media outlet do an exposure on another media outfit. It just isn't done.
