uring the rapid felding initiative (RFI), several laser target locators were felded
using non-standard line item numbers (NSLINs), such as Z00692. Some o± these
systems may have been picked up as a substitute ±or the AN/PVS-6 (LIN M74849).
Property book o±fcers should immediately change these NSLINs to the correct
LINs to ensure asset visibility and property accountability. In addition, end item
codes (EICs) have been assigned to all laser range fnders and laser target locators.
These should be added to the property book.
Here are the correct LINs and EICs:
I± you have unserviceable laser range fnders or laser target locators, turn them in
so they can be fxed and returned to the feld. Your property book o±fcer should report
them to National Inventory Control Point (NICP) B14 using an FTE (report o± excess)
and ±ollow the instructions in Chap 7 o± AR 725-50 (Nov 95),
Requisition and Issue of
Supplies and Equipment.
The NICP will provide disposition instructions through an
FTR (reply to report o± excess) with exception data that includes detailed disposition
and shipping instructions. All items
must
be turned in complete.

Dear Editor,
As a member of the COMET team at Joint Base Lewis-McChord
(JBLM), I see numerous M249 machine guns that have not had MWO
9-1005-201-30-6 applied.
The MWO, which added a new rail system and pistol grip, should have
been applied by June, 2010. Armorers need to check all their M249s for
the new flat-top rail system, which makes it easier to mount optics.
The MWO can be found on the ETM site:
https: //www.logsa.army.mil/etms/index.cfm
Your direct support performs the MWO.

Editor’s note:
Thanks for the heads-up, Doug.
Armorers, don’t let your M249s get out of date. If
you have any questions, contact your local TACOM
logistics assistance representative (LAR).
