It would take us a day to walk out of the block, a day to drive to town buy a new rifle or get the old one fixed and a day to walk back in to the block. Field Officers were notoriously touchy about you being off your block too often. I was bad enough that on two occasions I looked through my scope and found they had become goldfish bowls.
