Prince William Looses his Rifle
Prince William got a rolakin off his CO after loosing his L86 Rifle somewhere on the Royal Military Academy campus near Camberley, Surrey.
Prince William reportedly lost his machine gun during firing practice at Sandhurst.
Wills, 24, was given a rollicking by senior officers after misplacing the L86 rifle, according to the Mirror.
The prince had been handed the weapon in a morning briefing and told to head to the firing range.
But he managed to mislay it somewhere on the Royal Military Academy campus near Camberley, Surrey.
It turned out that another cadet had picked up his gun and used it instead.
Wills was so concerned that he spent two hours pedalling around on a friend's bicycle in a desperate bid to find it.
The Mirror's source said: "Fortunately there wasn't any live ammunition in it, but losing your weapon is still one of the worst mistakes you can make."
A Sandhurst spokesman confirmed: "In fact Officer Cadet Wales's weapon was picked up and used by another cadet who handed it back a couple of hours later, so it wasn't really missing at all."
