  1. Yes this sucks about us getting out shoe'd. Cause I for one will miss my black boots, black t-shirt's, and my "moral shirts" that they say we can't wear anymore. Here's a thought and I'm going out on a limb here with all the free time that us flyers have, why don't we all just submit request in to the uniform board about bringing them back? Seems like the shoe's submit some pretty dumb ideas to them anyway. Why not try and get back our heritage or what ever new buzz word is for it these days?
  2. I know in my old class at XL we had 2 guys who had turned 30 while in UPT. They were both prior E's.

    Besides posting the required pic of said fiancee, I would go look at the Ruger 10/22. Great gun and a blast to shoot.

    Thanks. No I didn't get it off their LEO site. They didn't have any on there at all or else I would have. It's still cheaper than buying from the local gun store. It did come with the loaded coupon so I might use it to buy a few more mags from SA, to bad I can't get some XD one's with it though. If not mags from SA then what is a good aftermarket mag?

    I just picked up my Loaded Springfield 1911 this afternoon that I ordered from Budsgunshop.com. Sorry for the crappy pic but I just snapped a quick one with the phone. I will post up a better one once I get it cleaned and taken to the range this weekend.
  6. Have him look at USAA. I know that they don't insure them in the states, but I'm pretty sure that my buddy used them over there for his bike.
  7. XL 11-15 Track Toners - 16 (2 Guard, 2 Reserve) T-38's - 8 (1 Reserve) T-44's - 3 (2 Guard/Reserve) UH-1's - 1
  8. Please Tell me that this happened on the AETC side of the house?
  9. "2" as well. Thanks you have taught us well so that we now know more than we used to. It has been well worth it. Thanks, now only if you could be cloned and sent to all the bases to help out that would be great.

    I love my Comp-Tac MTAC holster. Great Holster and they give a mil discount.
  11. Yes all the aircrew dorms have fridges, as for TV's they all should have some kind of TV. The only ones that didn't have tv's in them were the transient aircrew trailers. But those had fridges.

    I have an MTAC for my XD45. I love it. They may cost a little more than the Crossbreed's but being able to change out the body for a different gun is nice. So you get one holster and then you can buy different bodies for all your guns instead of having to buy separate holsters for all of your guns. Plus Comp-Tac offers a mil discount as well.
  13. Yeah it's called YoYo's. I have seen her there working on Fri nights.
  14. Here is a pic from the KSAT website. Looks like the plane is mostly intact from the looks of the pic. Will be very interesting to hear about this at some point.

    M2 glad that you liked it. Sorry you had some issues with it. All the ones that I have shot had zero issues. But is a blast to shoot through that much ammo and be so cheap. I have thought about getting one of the purpose build AR-15/22's just for that part. Plus It would give me a reason to do some modding on my 10/22 as well.

    M2, I have shot a couple of my buddies GSG-5's and they were a blast. One had the collapsing stock and another was fixed. I think that they said that you could get some air soft hardware that would fit it as well. For that price I would snag it. Especially since you can shoot 22 all day long and have a blast with it.
  17. You guys mentioned that you all had UPT pushes on your OPR's. I never had a push on my OPR for UPT and I got picked up. I just had on my 215 why I would be a good choice and what I bring from my experiences. I don't see why its not a bad thing to have it, but if you do I would say that you better be the top 2 LT or shit hot at your job. But like everybody else has said, be the best in your job and don't piss people off to try to get what you want.
  18. Ok everybody is familiar with the British or Aussie sounding guy over at Bahrain center who works the sector towards Kuwait. Well we were transiting his airspace a couple of days ago and this is what we heard go on. Bahrain center - Indian flight ### (you know really Bad Engrish) Indian flight ### - no reply x4 Bahrain center - Indian flight ### I have been calling you 4 times, if I had wanted to be ignored I would have stayed home today.

    Well this will be interesting how the new "gun" policy plays out. M2 your right about one thing, the people who want to commit the crimes will do it anyway. Just look at VT, Columbine, Ft. Hood, and any other mass shooting in a "Gun Free" zone. All it does is hurt the Law-abiding members who want to carry once they leave base. I was hoping to be able to at least carry to and from the base housing once I move to Laughlin this summer. But the way this looks I doubt that will happen now.

    Yeah that's the North range. Just make sure you go on a weekend first to get your membership. I have been told that Jones county sheriffs will stop by during the week if they hear the guns to check membership. But haven't been during the week. Maybe once I get back I will head out there during the day.

    Since everybody is putting in inputs to good ranges located near bases I will throw out that the Abilene Gun Club has a good deal for military members. $35 for the year for the whole family. Plus if you have family that comes in they get in for free. Has to pistol bays, and numerous back stops for the rifle. Open during the weekend and you get the combo for the gate so you can go during the week if you want. M2, I have had good luck with the 550 count boxes of Federal and Winchester. Some jam but I think its do to the fact that I'm shooting fast.

    On a different gun note. I found out the other day while researching the carry laws for Tn, that if your active military and your not stationed in Tn your carry permit is good till you separate. You don't even need to take the class if you have prof that you have completed at least a 4 hour military gun class. Now only if Tx would do something like this then I wouldn't have to get two permits.
  23. If your looking for some help on the gouge, you can checkout AFdriver.com ,that's where I got the cliffs notes from.

    I carry mine at about the 3:30 to 4 o'clock position, in a Comp-Tac Minotaur. It is very comfortable and if I want to carry a different gun I either just get a different body for it, or just get the same type of gun.
