    It won't affect me, but all my my young LTs who are 18Xers are going to have to figure things out when the mighty Reaper heads off to the boneyard.

    I hadn’t thought about those guys, but man you’re right, I don’t know what those poor bastards are going to do. I’ve heard of some decent jobs in the civ world, but how many? Direct man-in-the-loop RPA ops as we know it (at least in the mil) doesn’t have a long life ahead of it.

    A few years ago just as COVID was kicking off my buddy ordered 100K rounds of .223.  A truck delivered it to his house on two pallets.  I've been waiting for the ATF to pay him a visit ever since.

    That’s epic. How does one find that amount delivered without joining @Biff_T on the dark web?

    source?

    https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/major-columbia-protest-organizers-have-ties-to-left-wing-donors/ar-AA1nuWZW
     

    Here’s a very surface level snapshot. Do some digging/reading and you’ll see this is all funded/organized by similar actors as BLM in 2020. Same big pic goals with a different label.

    First learn who CUAD is and what groups are under its “umbrella,” then learn where those various groups get their funding from.

    or do you mean true "bulk?"

    Reloading…my bulk may not be all assembled at once, but I assure you it’s a sizable bulk. Come at me zombie bros!

    I still haven't found a holster that I thoroughly like.  Currently an alien gear.  Thinking of trying the vnsh.  Any recommendations?

    I have a Crossbreed Supertuck IWB. Carry just behind hip. I can wear this thing for 12 hrs, including siting, driving, etc. and almost forget it’s there. Make sure you have a real gun belt to go with it.

    What to do about these University protests?

    Simple, arrest them all as they are breaking laws. But, that’s not happening because academia at large is comprised of the most retarded, weak, and worthless people our society has to offer.

  7. G48 with a vortex defender is my carry gun. Put a better trigger on it to really up the awesomeness. I’ve also had good luck with Shield Arms S15 mags…31 rds on me at all times, even in shorts and t-shirt.

    It’s not surprising, each of their communities did what anyone would do - expel the garbage to somewhere else ASAP. And smartly they sent them to AU where they can have the least impact. Related note, I’m still undecided who’s the most useless - AU or the ATF.

    Why does an external hammer matter to you?

     

    One more thing to snag on clothing or dig into your body, especially considering many carry with the hammer back. My opinion is simple is better, especially in high stress situations, which is why striker fired is generally better suited for most people. But, all training and personal pref as you said, so totally support people carrying whatever they want - just train and maintain proficiency.

  10. Try to at least hold and dry fire a few types. Buy the one that feels most comfortable/gives you the most control - that’s the one you’ll shoot best. If you get a super compact where your pinkie isn’t even on the grip, it feels like you’re holding a gun made for kid hands, etc…that’s not the best choice for you personally. Can’t really go wrong with Glock, Sig, S&W.

    I don’t…if someone is so dangerous that we can risk them illegally obtaining a firearm then they should remain in prison

    I could get on board with that, if we can go back to the 1800s where it was pretty easy to simply execute violent criminals, whether through official or unofficial means. But we’re not in the 1800s, so if you get out of prison after violently raping a woman (or man if you’re BQZip’s mom), conducting armed robbery/assault, carjacking, etc. then fuck you, you gave up your right when you acted like a total POS who would have simply been put down in days bygone. 
     

    Above answer is directly related to background checks. I only support them to verify you are in fact not a felon.

  12. Until the moment one is convicted of a crime (and therefore legal to own firearms up to that point), an individual should be able to own whatever they want, including homemade firearms. That also means the NFA is a significant violation of the constitution and should be fully repealed. Any additional roadblocks to ownership/use such as firearms/ammo specific taxes, insurance requirements, banning of whatever, etc. are unconstitutional.

    I support restrictions for felons and I’m fine with background checks for purchased firearms (without any arbitrary waiting period), but anything beyond that is unconstitutional and illogical. The anti-gun crowd doesn’t give a fuck about safety or “saving lives,” they care about disarming the public to gain control of the plebes, pure and simple. Your average suburban dipshit who’s anti-gun just doesn’t realize they are simple pawns in said goal, despite whatever hollow, altruistic goals they claim to personally have.

  13. Awards/medals are embarrassing compared to the days of old. Even bronze stars and to some extent, DFCs, are handed out for simple baseline-doing-your-job. Everyone gets a trophy for just breathing and doing average shit. Ridiculous.

    WRT your comment, you know alot of guys who have destroyed 5+ enemy aircraft in aerial combat??  

    I said I know a lot of guys who have shot down 5x UAVs with no offensive capability. Point is, I could shoot down 5 PRC CMs (or UAVs) tomorrow and save the CSG or Taiwan, and while satisfied with my work, not 0.1% of me would think about ace status. And anyone who said I was I’d tell them to get fucked. And that is how 99% of modern day fighter pilots feel about it. I of course have to account for the 1% super douche who thinks they should stand along side the likes of Dick Bong.

    Go kill some J-20s, etc. and you’ve earned it. Again, this line of discussion takes zero away from the massively awesome and well executed actions over the last several months (by the way, US fighters have been shooting shit down in the region for over a year, this occurrence is just notable due to the number).

    Does a tail gun count as an "active capacity"?

    Sure, that is something that can actually kill you.

    USAF shot down 70....repeat 70 drones last night.  How many drone aces in the strike eagle community today?

    Another good example of how a bullshit deployment can turn on a dime. Good work strike bros. And awesome work by all the maintainers getting it done under very hairy circumstances.

    They’re honestly doing a great job limiting their impact to civilians.

    They really aren’t. CDE basically doesn’t exist. Now that said, they absolutely aren’t purposely targeting civs and I find little sympathy for the ton of civs there that actively support Hamas. And I do blame Hamas solely for putting legit mil targets purposely under/around/next to as many civs as possible. Could Israel do better, yes, but are they between a massive rock and a hard place, also yes.

  17. Waiver via secretariat process as to why your family is staying in Denver (and if possible, try to sell it as a benefit to the AF). Probably should end it with something like:

    ”…and if you do not approve this waiver, please know I am of sound mind and do not have any suicidal thoughts, regardless of what my wife tells the police.”

    Well, in this era. They were doing it in the 40s-60s with the communism hunting, right?

    Wait a minute, that’s something a commie would say…he’s a commie witch, burn him!
