Thanks Vince!

Don't mess with a man who's got a Browning Automatic Rifle and who knows how to use it.

The BAR was a weapon that, aside from the weight, I never heard anything bad about from the men who used them, but there was one Marine veteran who told me...

"You know, it was heavy as hell, but what a genius John Browning was when he designed it!  As soon as the 'stuff' hit the fan it got light as a feather!  Wonder how he managed that?" 

It's good that Mr. Curry lived to see himself immortalized as a action figure.  I wonder what he thought about it?
