Did feel a little strange shooting at American iron, but hey, they were all shot-up already anyway. That M151 I fired on was pretty much intact though, at least it looked like it- think we were firing from about 150 meters out if I remember right. Would have been REALLY cool if they were UAZ's or Skoda's etc! I would have to say that OFP does a good job of recreating the "feel" of the actual weapons though. I can't hit squat with OFP's M203, just like in real life!

This is my first post here, though I've lurked for a long time. Been playing OFP for about two years also... I entered Army Basic Training in December of 1984, and graduated in February 1985- cool timing because of OFP is supposed to be 1985. Fired the M16A1 (loved it), M60, set-up and fired a Claymore, threw grenades, fired the M203 and the LAW. I was great with everything EXCEPT the M203! We only fired a few shells, but I couldn't hit squat with it... Maybe I could have if we used it more... Loved the LAW though, fired it twice- we were shooting up some old Army vehicles that were just junk. I targeted a M151 but missed the first shot because it was snowing heavily and right before I pushed the plunger some snowflakes landed on the pop-up sight. Second shot was different though- aimed at the door handle and fired. I could actually see it hit about two inches from my aimpoint, and then it "blew up" the M151. Good stuff! BTW, it was at Ft. Leonard Wood, Missouri. Also, for my permanent duty station, I spent about 2 1/2 leisurely years at the NTC- Ft. Irwin, A Company, Operation Group.
