Jim:
Finally met someone who does not claim Rambo status! Very impressed.
I picked up a relatively new Jungle Carbine a couple of years ago from a buddy of mine who had a number of them. Really is in almost perfect condition. We had a few of them in the 10th SFG back in the day when Group had a stock of foreign weapons at the unit level to train with. The Jungle Carbine was always a sort of test of manhood sort of thing because it would really abuse a guy if he didn't watch it. Hard rubber butt, light, carbine length. A real blaster. I shoot mine periodically with some surplus South African .303 ball I bought many years ago. Shoots well for about five shots then opens up badly as it heats up. Handy thing but it can beat up a guy if he doesn't watch it.
Good stuff and welcome.
