I remember working the butts in boot camp. The sonic crack of bullets passing a couple of feet over your head leaves an impression.
TV and movie folks that think that high-powered rifles can be easily silenced with a silencer should spend five minutes in the butts.
One time I worked the butts for a city kid on the firing line that was afraid of the M-14. My arms were getting tired from waving "Maggie's Drawers". Didn't see any snakes, though.
You Marines know what I am talking about.
