Don Cook, a Marine veteran whoās been maintaining M107s for more than two decades, told National Geographic in 2011 that he one day received a call to Barrettās workshop from a harried young Marine. During maintenance of the unitās M107, the Marine had bent the ears of the rifleās lower receiver; the next day, after engaging the enemy, they discovered the rifle wouldnāt fire consistently.
Despite the unitās lack of tools (and time), Cook knew exactly what to do. The armorer instructed the Marines to use the bottom of the carrier to bend the ears back down. Within 45 seconds, the weapon was firing properly. āThank you very much,ā Cook says they told him, then he heard a dial tone. They had a firefight to get back to.
āItās probably one of the biggest highlights of my life, to be able to help a Marine unit during a firefight,ā Cook told National Geographic.
