@Price25: It's part of the job. If a person's uncomfortable with the idea of fighting and killing other humans, the Marine Corps is an organization they want to be a part of. Every facet of Marine Corps doctrine and policy exists for the express purpose of enabling the infantry rifle squads to locate, close with, and destroy the enemy by fire and maneuver.

@Doolally66: Out of the weapons I've used in MOUT (M249, M249 Para, M16A4, Mossberg 500, M1014, M9, M9A1) I honestly preferred the M1014. I've never had a problem with first-shot incapacitation/lethality while using a shotgun. Outdoors in urban terrain, I'd have to say either the M16A4 or M249 Para.
