Well, the lineage of the M4 goes back to the M16, which was designed in 1959. In the mid-1960s, a carbine version whose variants are universally known as the CAR-15 was designed, and that entered production in 1968. When the M16A2 entered service in 1983, a carbine version was soon developed, which became known as the M4. The first prototypes were finalised in 1984, and a limited number entered service in 1986.

With perfect shooting conditions how far will a 308 travel before it begins to drop?
All objects in flight have Gravity forces applied to it. All objects immediately begin to "drop". When a rifle is sighted to hit a bullseye at 100 yards, for example, the bullet's trajectory actually rises up a fraction of an inch and then begins its descent such that the bullet's path of flight crosses the shooter's line of sight exactly at 100 yards.
Believe it or not---if you fire a bullet directly horizontal and at the very same instance you drop one from the same height, they will both hit the ground at the same time. The dropped bullet will accelerate at 32 feet/sec/sec just as the one that is fired. Of course this test will vary slightly due to air resistance on the moving bullet.
I know that didn't answer your question but I'm nost sure what your Question really is. A more accurate question would be: How far can a .308 bullet travel?
It drops as soon as there is no vertical upward force applied. That is, as soon as it leaves the barrel (horizontal shot). I fired some last week and was reaching out to about 1500 yrds with accuracy about 25ft because of subsonic condition.What is the value of a Remington model 12A 22 CAL?
the value of a model 12 is greatly determined by condition and variation, for a general 12A (standard grade).

Excellent (98%) 700-800
Very good (95%) 600-700
? (90%) 500-600
Below it's a shooter from 100-500 depending on overall condition of blue, wood, and rifling
Why is China's military so strong?
1. Because they have beliefs. Chinese around the world or China had been humiliated for centuries and this is why the Chinese communist has a very strong will to protect their ethnicity because they do not want to get bullied anymore.
Once a wise man says, strong-willed will build a powerful world.
2. Yet speaking of military technology, China still 5 years behind USA. They are still lack of engineering fact but soon another 10-20 years, she might brings the Asia to modern world. And this is one of the reason why China military so strong, she does not like to fall behind the technology. They hate to lose.
3. Now China wants to take back what it belongs to her such as south china sea island, one of it will be the hottest news ever now, the Diayu Island/Sengaku. During the civil war of China and world war 2, Japan, Vietnam, India has taken most of the China lands such as the Diayu/Sengaku, some Vietnam islands and some place of India where India stole China's land during Chinese civil war. But China has taken back almost every land stolen by India and this brings shame to the Indian armies. Because Indian armies thought that they were invisible because of their advance weapon but they never thought that China would defeat them so easily. And so India changed their own history written that China humiliated them. This raged China, the citizens said "We never blame you for your greed but yet you turn around the bush and bite us back" and so China build 5000 missiles facing New Delhi.
4. If you observe carefully, almost everything in the media is talking bad about China. This is because USA and India want China to fall and let everyone thinks that China is a dangerous place. They said Chinese go cheap labor, cheat and kill their own child. But why is no one talking about the child labor, child slave in India? Why is no one talking about when USA company in China use cheap material to build toys and poisoned some child? They even blame China but not their own USA company. They spread the media through the whole world. How ridicules is India and USA. And from this China knows that, once war started, these 2 countries might want to sink China. To prevent this happening, China hide their own military technology and shows only half of it.
Bonus.
In 1947, every countries said China will be low standard country forever. And when China rise, every people were jealous on her success. Everyone says China products were useless. But of course, if you want cheap price then you get the cheap quality.
Is not because China is communist so they focus on military. China no longer a communist. They are now democratic but with the tittle of communist. This is what the Chinese says. " Chinese Communism form a new democratic system, a nation with hopes to save the chaos of the world"
What is a 1888 commission rifle worth?
Depends on a few things. What kind of condition is it in? Which version of Gew 88 is it? Is it an unmodified, original German configuration, or is it a turked 88/05 or maybe even the rarer 88/14.
Which arsenal is it from, what's the date & more importantly, is it all matching numbers?
Gew 88 are not particularly valuable & can be bought for $100 to $175 for one in average condition while a mint condition all matching one would fetch around $250 - $275

You want to see if your friend was a navy seal how do you do that?
You have to check out his records and it will have MOS (job) and where he's been. If he doesn't have that, you can look him up through navylocator.com Might just be for ex-military, but you can give it a try, it should give you his job there. Take him down to Mc P's in Coronado, CA and you will find out really quick if he was a seal or not. Careful though, you know what they say about curiousity.
