    USAF firearms training
    I was buying my first Airsoft piece at Airsoft Atlanta when I noticed a young man behind me wearing BDUs. Upon closer inspection I noticed he had all the right stuff for an Air Force two striper. I asked him if he was really in the Air Force and he was.

    I told him that when I was in the AF circa 1972-76, we had one day of weapons training with the M16. I shot 90 rounds. He confirmed that nothing has changed in 40 years, that was the same training he got last year.
    Interesting huh?

    Talking to a few guys who have done air force officers training and my cadre (not sure about enlisted)that weapons training doesn't is not a big part compared to other branches.
