Keith, believe me, I have thousands of ideas, (yours was not one of them, but a great one), but I'm not looking to break the bank. I have seen some rubber rifles (we use them for MCMAP), but they are not cheap. I've never used a 1911 in the Corps, not old enough. We've only used 9 mil's.
I need to get a block for my NCO sword, I'm trying to decide if I should get one where the sword and scabard cross, or get one that is straight across.
This is what I want to do for a POW MIA table... this is the one we had at my SNCOA mess night...

what did they have on the dog tags?
i know the Army wives gun guy, LMK if you want me to check on plastic guns.
i know he has rubber (?) 50 cals, but he paid $700 each for them off ebay,
i never thought plastic guns would be so $$$
I wish I was as fine, as those who work the pipeline!

Hey Mark,
Don't know how i missed this thread, That is very cool. I love the POW MIA table. Back in Denver, they set one up at the Elk's lodge. I didn't really understand it at the time, but my grandmother explained things in very certain terms to me.
It is a very humbling experience to watch a vet stand at attention, solute, bow their head and pray for those who have fallen. Sitting quietly in the corner as a young boy and watching was probably one of the most life changing experiences I have had.
Something to be very proud of sir. Thank You for sharing.
