M16....wao..I never expect I'll have the chance to touch such dangerous weapon!! but life always surprise us unexpectedly, doesn't it??
Emm....I was not only given the chance to touch it, I was using it to shoot the target too!!haha....don't think too much, I am not terrorist...XD...I was just attending national service and every trainee was given the chance to shoot...haha
What is the feeling of holding the gun? hehe...It was so excited and thrilling!! My hands were trembling when I hold the gun...opss...I was not afraid of shooting, but M16 is actually quite heavy for me, if I am not mistaken, it weights almost 3kg..and we can only use the strength between elbow and wrist to support whole gun....
We shot in an area near the forest which is specially prepared for shooting..there were targets in front of us...I don't really remember how far were them, maybe 10m away....and each of us were given 25 bullets to shoot....the pose of shooting was just like the photo below....and we wore earplug, in order to protect our eardrums from the loud sound produced during shooting...
While we shot, there were soldiers beside us to hold our backs...I think this is probably to stop our bodies from recoiling due to the momentum during firing...to our surprise, the momentum of M16 was not as strong as we had imagined....we just recoiled a bit and our shoulders were unhurt....not even bruised....
Every bullet that passed through the target was assigned with marks....the nearer the bullet to the red dot, the higher the marks we gained....there's a guy who got 97 marks out of 100 marks!!!cheer!!! he's an excellent shooter!! but I don't know how many marks I got, as the applause around was too noisy and I can't hear the announcement....lesson: don't sit to far, or you will be unable to listen the sound ahead....T.T
Overall, I would like to say that shooting was an wonderful experience!!^^
before going for real shoot, we learned the pose of shooting at the camp there..
