Interesting. I have always heard like 99% of the stuff is scripted. Like they will pull random people from the street and give them an object. So the negotiating isn't really scripted, but the item was never that person's to begin with.

I am confused. His beret fell off...so?

It can be fixed. But it will take time and commitment. Those are the two things we have always lacked. We are impatient and never follow through. We jump ship at the first chance possible to avoid responsibility or finish what we started. Add a shitty ROE that makes it even harder to accomplish much of anything in a short time period and you have a guaranteed lack of success.

Crazy. The one I shot felt like a toy after shooting my 16" mid length AR. I guess it varies a lot. I think his was a 14.5 upper. So it was apples to oranges. But a 5.56 AR has such pitiful recoil it should never be an issue anyway.

Timbonez, if you really want to cut the recoil back consider a piston kit. The piston AR's I have fired recoiled similar to the ones with a 22LR kit. It's ridiculous.

Oh very good point, didn't realize they were on a rejoin. I have no idea wtf he was doing then. Never heard of it happening before. And if so, this would be much more prevalent with all the stud's panic stopping on rejoins. Hell, I can't even count how many times I would go idle/boards on a rejoin...probably every rejoin I did on my first handful of form flights. Multiply that by...all of UPT and if it was an issue with the PT6 then there would be T-6's falling out of the sky at a very rapid rate.

Not if the IP was a former -37 guy. They lost one at Randolf with two very experienced IP's on it for this reason. T-37 flap lever = T-6 throttle cutoff

How is that even legal? So now WG/CC's can make up dress and appearance regs?

No bet. I am willing wager that Charlie Sheen will be the next Keith Richards or Ozzy Osbourne. He is going to live to be like 98 years old and nothing will ever stop him.

Bloody decent of them.

I threw it on there and then forgot to take it off before my TDY enroute. So now I'm stuck at Altus with the wrong stock on it since my M4 stock is in long term storage. But not all is lost since I am saving a little more money and buying a Mk12 Mod 0 upper probably while I am still here. But the handguard would be in FDE not carbon fiber.

Exactly. I've been saying that for years. Anyone know what the procurement rate is going to be? It's going to take a loooooooong time if it is only 15 a year.

Or you can buy a real AR (5.56) and just drop in a .22LR bcg and have two guns in one! https://www.botachtactical.com/cmar22lrcoki.html

Leave and next time they want us back they foot the bill.

Mailman made a delivery: Aimpoint M2 with Larue Mount, FDE rubber cover, and len's covers with integral ARD. Can't wait to throw it on my AR and zero her in.

That sucks to hear. Hope those guys can get picked up with BA or something and take advantage of all the free flight training.

I was trying to figure out what the hell that badge was. Figured it was some weird foreign jump wings and he had them in the wrong spot...but damn...that's even more embarrassing. Someone needs to jack that guy in the nuts repeatedly.

I am honestly not surprised at the stupidity of the USAF. Can you refuse to sign off on an getting issued a weapon? Honestly I'd like to think I would flat out refuse a pistol without ammo. At that point it isn't a weapon, so why would I sign off that I was issued one?

Haha and they forgot to turn on Fergie's mic for about the first 15 seconds including a little bit of her solo. What a shit show. But she does look pretty damn good.

And the Polish...well usually how Germany will invade the Pole's.

Buy 3 B-2's for the cost of modernizing one of those. That price didn't even include a brand new airplane. This was just an upgrade.

The British are way worse. OUCH!
