The Buck is basically unarmed, except for the grenade, I think I would have given him an M79, and a vest with a variety of 40 mike-mike grenades, if the wolf needs a scope then the enemy is too far to throw a grenade but the Thumper could be better, besides, every deer should have a Thumper as a friend.

Buck Luck! I have to share this! I have an order for an early M16 from an Army Vet that served in the 60s, I've been accumulating parts including rare parts hard to get. My shipment came in today and I'm used to getting lower and lower quality parts kits, they are rare,expensive, and now they're shipping kits that were deemed too worn or damaged, well, the Colt 20 round mags came in, the three prong flash hider, and the parts kit, I was checking the individual parts and discovered the stock was exactly what I needed! The old style, without the trap door for the cleaning kit, and the early style sling loop as well.
When the M16 first came out it was supposed to be self cleaning (right!) and they soon realized that jungle conditions simply caused the gun to malfunction, later models included a cleaning kit that was stored behind a trap door in the stock. I now have everything I need for the build and will meet with him to discuss color, whether or not his had a sling and bayonet, and how he taped the two 20 round mags together. He's as excited as I am, because he said it will be therapeutic for him to go back in time and hold, and shoot it again.

I can make any platform, any accessory, convert to semi-auto, and find rare military supplies and parts.

How far with your book are you?

I only have two chapters of 12 done, found some old Livejournal stuff and more notes.
