Hey Fubar, good to see you still around. Thanks for the replies. I'm needing this information for another military simulation currently in the works, still in the design phase. This information will prove helpful, as all the armor guys I used to know are either no longer serving or still in-country and hard to contact. So from what I'm getting here, the A1 and A2 will hold 2800 rounds at the ready. The A1 will usually hold an additional 10800 rounds in stowage, and the A2 about 8600 in stowage. The 2800 in ready plus 8600 in stowage equals out to the 11400 I already had confirmed. I really appreciate the information, it'll help me get a few things organized before I deploy. Just got the confirmation last night, I'll be sworn in by the end of the month. I look forward to seeing everyone again in SB once I get back home. All that money I make while overseas is going to help build a new PC that is capable of running SB Pro. How's the MP community doing now compared to SB1 a few years ago? Still easy to find plenty of matches set up?

So the M1A1 and M1A2 will have 4000 coax rounds at the ready, with the other 7400 rounds in stowage?

Greetings everyone. I have been away from SB for a while now, looks like my last visit according to my login was May '06. I had a quick question regarding the real M1 Abrams, specifically the loadout and storage of the 7.62mm coaxial ammunition. I am aware that they hold 11,400 rounds in total, but what I'm curious about is how many rounds are actively loaded and ready in the M240C and how many are in stowage. From my previous experience working with the community, this seemed like the perfect place to ask. I have lost my Abrams TM during a move a few years ago, and won't have my new AKO account for a few months. I would greatly appreciate any information available by actual current or previous armor crews who know this data. I'm looking forward to picking up a copy of SB Pro PE, but it will have to wait until I get back home. I'm in the process of reenlisting into the Army, and will be deployed to Iraq in a few months. Sadly, the laptop I plan to bring with me on my deployment will not be capable of running the game so I'll wait until I'm back home again. It's good to see a lot of familiar names are still active on the forums though, shows great promise in future online sessions.
