Yep, used to mountain bike in the back country of Govt Canyon until the joints could no longer take the punishment. The sad thing is Geronimo Air Park is not too far away if he had a mechanical issue... An update...they still aren't identiying the pilot but most likely it was the owner...

Update. Of course, we all know how these "witnesses" are... Pilot was local.

Breaking news not far from here... https://www.thundermustang.com (Not the plane that crashed) From Wikipedia...

Worse than making a salad in the shower!

The Grand Budapest Hotel. Worth it. Funniest shit I've seen in a long time...

For some reason this is how I picture Foglenut's speech going over...

Real gun porn...

How could you pass up on such an opportunity?!? Plus, you gotta go if only to let all the rest of us know how it goes. Video tape it if you can, I honestly think it will be a treasure trove of combat coolness!

This is about as good as you're going to find in Kaiserslautern... https://www.rowdyingermany.com/2011/06/ktown-beer-garden.html Get the Bischoff, it's made in Winnweiler not far from Sembach. And don't be discouraged if there's no hot chicks in Dirndls... Prost! M2

Strike Eagles from Lakenheath near the wreckage...

Why did that remind me of this?

Fuck yeah! On another happy note, this is my 17-yr-old son constantly hitting a basketball-sized gong at 500 yards last Saturday using a bud's (who is spotting him) .223 bolt action Savage.

My latest acquisition, a Ruger American Rimfire in .22LR... Bought barely used with four 10/22 mags, scope, bipod and case. Can't wait to shoot it. Heard great things about these rifles! Cheers! M2

For one, it's the wrong caliber for an AK! Headspace is the distance from the bolt face to the chamber face (end of the barrel). When the weapon is fired, the pressure forces the barrel out and up against the barrel pin. If the barrel is not forced up against the pin, when it's fired, the headspace will change and cause a very bad situation. Midway (and many other places) sell "go/no go" gauges to make sure the headspace is good. Yeah, the look the same to me as well; but If the action closes with the first gage inserted, then the firearm is within acceptable minimum headspace dimensions. If the action closes with the second gage inserted, then the firearm may not be within acceptable maximum headspace dimensions and should be examined further by a knowledgeable gunsmith. Most builders use both to make sure it's good-to-go!

Yep. Can view but no log into here at work. That would be a workaround except some of us can't bring a cell phone into the office either!

Life After the Americans

No worries, Linda, this special tribute deserves a thread of its own! I embedded the video into your post for you, hope all is well and maybe one of these days we'll get a chance to have that long-overdue beer or two! Cheers! M2

Damn, I want one!
