Over the last couple years, my Boy Scout Troop has found itself doing a lot of flag ceremonies. Most recently we were at the Blue Star Memorial Highway dedication in Avon. Some of the older Scouts have asked me to help them form a drill team so that they can take things to the next level.
I'm really proud of them for wanting to do it, but having been on a college drill team I know they have no clue what they're getting into!
To do it right, we'll need some rifles. We will probably get some of the wooden replica ones for practice and for places (like schools) that wouldn't allow even non-functioning firearms. I was wondering, though, if anyone had thoughts about where to find some 03's or M1's that would be suitable for drill team. If we could find someone willing to donate that would be wonderful but if not we would be looking for as inexpensive a solution as possible.
Thanks in advance,
Doug
