REEKON M1 Caliber Measuring Tool for Miter, Chop, and Band Saws, Eliminates Need to Measure & Mark Materials

Product Information

It was recognized [ by whom?] that such an arm might be particularly valuable for paratroopers, as it was more powerful than the carbines and submachine guns currently in use. Preliminary testing revealed it had excessive recoil and muzzle blast, but it was recommended that it be developed further. The Infantry Board directed Col. Rene Studler to proceed with the project. All of these factors are computed into a ballistic solution and updated 30 times per second. The updated solution is displayed in the Gunner's or Tank Commander's field of view in the form of a reticle in both day and Thermal modes. The ballistic computer manipulates the turret and a complex arrangement of mirrors so that all one has to do is keep the reticle on the target and fire to achieve a hit. Proper lead and gun tube elevation are applied to the turret by the computer, greatly simplifying the job of the gunner.

Hand signals enable the gunner inside the tank to train the main gun onto a boresighting target.

Most variants of the Garand, save the sniper variants, never saw active duty. [50] The sniper versions were modified to accept scope mounts, and two versions (the M1C, formerly M1E7, and the M1D, formerly M1E8) were produced, although not in significant quantities during World War II. [58] The only difference between the two versions is the mounting system for the telescopic sight. In June 1944, the M1C was adopted as a standard sniper rifle by the U.S. Army to supplement the venerable M1903A4, but few saw combat; wartime production was 7,971 M1Cs. [59] In January 1978, a program was initiated [30] to develop an enhanced version of the 105mm gun, the M68A1 [31] as a possible alternate weapon for the M1 Abrams. The new XM24/L55 gun barrel was 18 inches (45.72cm) longer in comparison to the XM24/L52 barrel used on the M60 tanks. [32] It has a higher chamber pressure, [26] reinforced breech [a] and a higher muzzle velocity. [33] Cyprus: Round Two". Newsweek. August 23, 1974.
