I agree about the scopes on service rifle, I was against it until I thought it out.

Service Rifle is just that, Service Rifle. Our soldiers use scopes so I guess they should be allowed in Service Rifle Matches.

That's why I like the CMP Vintage Rifle games, the are old service rifles, as issued with no modifications.

But things have changed there. When I first started shooting the EIC matches run by the then, DCM, had to be shot with issued ammo, you had to load from the person. And no ground matches. Setting rapid was 50 sec and prone rapid was 60 secs.

We used paddles for scoring in the pits, not the CMP used electronic targets where each shooter has his own TV screen to see his shots.

I like shooting on those, but I do miss the comradeship of the pits.
