Fred provided us this little gem of knowledge today on how to perform ball and dummy drills with an M1A/M14.
On this rifle, you are unable to put the bolt forward with an empty mag in. By inserting a quarter in the mag, your problem is solved. The bolt will go forward, and you can now pair up with a coach to perform this fun and useful drill! Have one mag with a quarter and the other with a live round.
The same works if you're using .223 mags and inserting a nickel.
