I got you: Coming out of a 2-week FTX and before you can go back to the barracks and take a REAL shower you have to service/clean your weapon before handing it in to the Armorer.

No big deal with an M-16A1 or M-9. Took about 20 min.

My assigned weapon was an M-249 SAW.

2-3 hours.......minimum.

:snoop:

249s did suck. Always reccommended a team effort to make it faster. I was the unit armorer as an additional duty. Best duty ever. If someone pissed me off regardless of rank, I kicked your weapon back. I can always find carbon. :ufdup:

Had a 1LT one time be a dikk and turn in a dirty weapon. Told him it wasn't clean enough. He said he was too busy and left. Called the commander and told him the LT left a dirty weapon with me. :troll:

LT was there till I was ready to close the arms room. :lolbron:

Only time it sucked was when our alarm went down and me and my assistant armorers had to spend the weekend in the arms room. The commander and his wife dropped by several times with food and drinks for us. Working directly for the commander had its perks.
