    Tac, Glock already offers a damn good mil/LEO discount. See below. You can also get almost all of the Glocks for $399 (fixed sights...up to $460 with night sights) with their mil discount. There is no min number of purcheses to get the discount either. Go to the glock website, click on military, then find a dealer. Enter your zip and click on LE dealer. That will get you the LE dealer nearest you as not all dealers can offer the mil/LEO discount. Or you can order direct from Glock...wait time is ridiculous right now. I found this website on another forum. It has the pricing for Glocks/Sig/S&W. https://www.vancesle.com/category.cfm/le/firearms

    You can verbally kick me in the junk if you've already seen this. SIG mil discount. They also do a "squadron buy" type program. https://www.sigsauer....002-06-2013.pdf

    Hmmm...I could have sworn I saw the phase, "I've got him on the fish finder," in there somewhere!
  4. Didn't they go after USAFA guys when their commitments we cut short? Nothing would surprise me.

    Ok, I have to ask...what the fuck does "rogered up" mean? It's like the term "you tracking?" who the fuck uses this shit?These two terms are way more annoying than any stupid shit I hear on the radio.
  6. Ummm....what? Something about a PAR and a F-14 driver getting mad props.

    Man, you guys are a bunch of ate up mother fuckers! T-6 assignments for all of you! About the only time I get pissed at comm, is if we're in a stack, about to employ, and extraneous comm is hindering our ability to drop. Other than that, you can say whatever the fuck you want.

  9. If that's your argument, then the answer to his question should have been yes. Or you could just be less of an asshole. Edit: I see you edited your post... That sucks. No. Are you saying that no one can get the bonus on any airframe? Or that no one is getting hired at any airline?
  10. I didn't see anything in his post about TR, just if he could get the bonus in the Guard/Reserve. I know quite a few dudes that have rolled right off AD into AGR spots.
  11. What he said. We have several dudes on the bonus, both 2 year (15k) and 4 year (25k). Edit: clarity.
  12. Why wait? I'll put my money on a higher than normal rate of descent upon landing. Boom, safety report done...lets go to the bar. Edit: Even says it in the article, which we know anything put on the Internet has to be true.
  13. True story. Have already had a few friends hired by majors this year.
  14. So let me get this straight...women aren't always telling the truth when they claim they were sexually assaulted? Bitches be crazy!
  15. Why would he? Unless he is SQ/CC douchenozzle...

    So I want to order direct from Glock but their paperwork requires a copy of a military ID. I'm fairly certain that this is NOT one of the exceptions to the rule, that we can't make copies of our ID. Has anyone dealt with this? Just want to make sure before I talk with Glock directly about this. Edit: did a search and this was already discussed. Or my last weekend...

    One of them was just worried about selling to someone who isn't legally allowed to own a gun, I guess. I think it's so they will sleep better at night, to be honest. I don't worry about it because I don't sell my guns...just buy more! And it just got a whole lot of gay up in here! Must talk guns...Considering picking up my first Glock soon. Have never been a fan, but I do like the looks of the compact gen4. Thinking of the 32, have wanted a .357 sig for a while.

    I know many people who have done this. It's just a way to CYA and you charge the buyer the 20 bucks for the transfer.
  19. SocialD replied to VL-16's topic in Squadron Bar
    Depends on your status. There is a breakdown on the Glock site on who is eligible. If you're retired then yes. Not sure about if you got out and are no longer on IRR. You could probably sell it online for what you paid, maybe more. Then go buy on at the mil price, if eligible.

    FFLs are generally easy to find and you should be able to get a transfer for <25-30 bucks. If you check out the link I posted above, you can see the MIL/LEO discounted prices. I'm not sure which Glock you picked up but you can get a Glock 23 Gen 4 (.40 S&W) for $399. Go to Glocks website and in the upper right hang quarter there is a find dealer by zip code container. Once that pops up, click on the LE dealers tap to find a place close to you. Not all Glock dealers can offer the MIL/LEO discount. Find a local FFL here. https://www.gunbroker.com/FFL/DealerNetwork.aspx

    https://www.vancesle.com/category.cfm/CurrentPage/1/le/firearms/brand/ALL I'm sure there are more around but here is a website I stumbled upon, that has a separate website for LEO/MIL prices. Of course, every gun I want has been "temporarily out of stock" for a while. Hopefully the idiots will stop buying up everything known to man soon, so we can get back to collecting/shooting our guns.
  22. Talk about hyperbole! You said, no one cares about this, when clearly they do. I'm not arguing that it's destroying mission effectiveness.
