Did you happen to mean "SV" is projected IPT date? The education and training course announcements page (url in the RIP) shows "S-V8I-PT" as the course ID for the IPT courses. "P-V4A-B" is the ETCA course ID for UPT. If anyone has SV8IPT/PV4AB VH (IPT/UPT at Vance) shoot me a dm, would love to make a Teams chat

State residents are already visiting the gun counter, as data from Virginia's adjusted NICS background checks in Feb. 2026 were 65,501 compared to 42,193 for Feb. 2025 – a jump of 55 percent.

VA politics is driven by the DC metro folks, which is really an extension of Maryland politics. It didn't go blue, it was just having an affair with a Republican.

This is what happens when stupid and/or completely uninformed people make up a majority of voters. Elections have consequences, as they say. And in many cases, it’s really the consequence of rational people being too damn lazy to go vote.

Good time to be a gun store owner in Virginia

Virginia goes back blue and full retard. Senate Bill 749 passed yesterday... SB 749, as passed, criminalizes the import, sale, manufacture, purchase, and transfer of so-called “assault firearms” and bans magazines capable of holding more than 15 rounds. The bill outlines an "assault firearm" as a semi-auto centerfire rifle that can accept a detachable magazine and has either a folding or collapsible stock, thumbhole or pistol grip, grenade launcher, or threaded barrel. Likewise, any semi-auto centerfire pistol with a detachable magazine and a second pistol grip, a shroud over the barrel, or a threaded barrel, would be outlawed. The measure also goes after semi-auto shotguns with a folding, thumbhole, or pistol grip stock, or if it accepts a detachable magazine. Guns and mags already owned by Virginians before July 1, 2026, would be grandfathered in, at least until future legislation is passed.

NRA-ILANRA-ILA | By George! Washington, D.C.’s Magazine Ban Inva...Even as its formerly more liberty-loving neighbor, Virginia, goes down the tyrannical path of unconstitutional bans on firearms and magazines, residents of the nation’s capital last week gained a measOf course, the anti-gunners in DC are crapping themselves pushing hard for a stay on the precedence and an en-banc review. If this stands it could give a circuit split (however this works in DC) and then on to SCOTUS which is absolutely the last thing any libs want to see. BREAKING NEWS! DC DECLARES EMERGENCY OVER HUGE FEDERAL COURT DECISION!

I just got the email for a 30 Jun IPT date out of Del Rio that was for Prescott. AFPC guy told me that the location changes all the time though due to AETC doing load management/balancing so to take that with a grain of salt. Sounds like its going to be a cluster until were in the student flights getting ready to go

So I’m currently driving to Columbus to drop off two of my vehicles about a week ahead of my PCS. But the information that I can pass along is that once your dates get loaded anybody in your CSS shop should be able to look at your MILPDS records and see what training you’re loaded for additionally, if you don’t know what base you got you can do the EFMP hack on VMPF essentially what you do is you start a new application and you go all the way to the end make sure you don’t hit submit and you will see your projected assignment and then once you see that just go ahead and remove your EFMP application. Lastly, from what my experience was, you’re gonna get an email from the transition flight at whatever base you’re going to to let you know that you’ve been scheduled for IPT and it will have the location on it. I know there are locations in Orlando Pensacola Atlanta, Denton, Texas, and San Marcos Texas. I don’t know if they’re still using the ones out in Arizona. Sorry for any typos I’m currently driving and using Siri

So if your class starts with "SV" that is your projected UPT date and the letters on the back end (for example: "LJ") are the first two letters of the base PAS Code which in this case would be Laughlin. Vance would be "VH" and Columbus "CO". Your IPT class will only have the main UPT base attached. Based on some folks in IPT currently, the two locations for Laughlin are Denton, TX and San Marcos, TX. Only way to find that out is when you are in processing/know someone there who can tell you what location is slotted for that date. This is where folks earlier in the thread mentioned taking "strategic" leave prior to IPT if you want a specific location that your primary UPT base sends folks to.
