    I've been researching a combo that has both a tactical option and a little bit of reach...thinking about this one.
  2. Cool story bro...
  3. Its meant to prevent purple hearts. Pedro's have taken some SERIOUS BDA the past few years as did some other rotor platforms in Iraq. Case in point.
  4. Reports of massive damage and up to 500 people injured from the impact. It doesn't look like they shot or attempted to shoot it down in the video. I bet these people though we launched a missile at them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BO_uo0bPbu4

    Who said anything about being a cop...we were talking about weapons handling?
  6. ClearedHot replied to VL-16's topic in Squadron Bar
    Respectfully disagree. My brother is a cop and head of the SWAT Team at a large North East Department. Before making Lt he served as his department's chief firearms instructor. A few years back when I was visiting during their annual weapons qualification period, his police chief invited me to shoot the qualification course. I qualified very easily, five of the 50 officers there that day did NOT.

    Yes...one of the problems with unrestrained capitalism, they will water down the whiskey to make more profit. I appreciate they've been honest and upfront (they would have been caught anyway), but as a purist I am very disappointed, they have marketed themselves on quality for years, they drew us in as ambassadors to leverage that quality and have the customer spread the word. Now when all of that worked they are going to cash in to make an extra 3% on the bottomline. I guess most companies would so it, I am just disappointed this one did.

    If that Russian Shit was half as good as you think it is they would have won the Cold War. Obviously it takes a more refined intellect to employ an AR, and with that refinement comes victory.

    Mine arrived yesterday as well. VERY happy with the quality.

  19. Document EVERYTHING before you leave is what the old timers have told me. I had not heard about the dust/smoke link, but I have been told Sleep Apnea = automatic 50% disability (M2 didn't you post about that once?). 50% disability is a magic number for several post military considerations including tax free retirement payments, veterans preference for follow-on hiring, and many states have programs for disabled vets such as free or reduced tuition for your kids. One common misconception is the calculation of disability....M2/Huggy/Rainman being the oldest can certainly share their knowledge, but as I understand it if your initial disability rating comes in at 30%, and you subsequently develop another condition worth 20%, the follow on disability rating is not additive, instead it is a function of the remaining value. The VA will review each disabling condition that you claimed was caused by your military service. The highest disability rating will be applied to the most severe disability. The next rating will be assigned for the next less severve disability. This will continue until each disability is rated from zero to 100%. The VA uses a table that determines the maximum rating for all of the disabilities that were rated. The total disability is not additive e.g. If you were rated at 40% for disability #1, 20% for #2, and 10% for number 3, you would not have an overall disability of 70%. The table 1st considers the 40% disability and then the 20% to get a disability rating value. From that value, it considers the 10% which results in your total VA disability rating. Go to www.va.gov and search on "disability rating table"

    No it was actually cheaper than that and now I can't find it. I remember there was a $5.00 surcharge for heavy/bulky items, but I can't find the site. I think it was $169 + shipping.

    I just saw a couple deals on 22LR a few days ago....5250 Rounds lose...will try to find the link on my desktop. I did hear there was a big gunshow in Las Vegas (this weekend or next?), and most of the ammo dealers that had stock were going there...supposedly what they didn't sell will be available soon.
  22. In the traditional sense, yes the ORI is supposed to go away. It will be replaced with a CUI or Combined Unit Inspection that will have large portions accomplished online and internally before a team ever arrives, the team is supposed to be smaller and same work that has been "Self Identified and corrected" to ensure compliance. There will still an evaluation of a Wing's ability to generate combat power and how a wing gets out the door, but the ATSO portion becomes unit specific...makes sense for Korea, not so much for Altus. The genesis of the idea was the realization of just how many man hours we were wasting getting ready for not really in our job jar...then we were sending large numbers of inspectors out who wasted many more man hours inspecting those same innocuous things.
