aka, Ian gets his ass handed to him.
We finally had the chance to run a .308 caliber reproduction FG-42 in a 2-Gun match here, head to head with an M1 Garand. The FG was complete with an original-style 4x optic, and it performed flawlessly. My friend shooting it ended up taking 11th place out of 45, and that's even including his use of a P38 and flap holster for the pistol shooting.
