RIP :salute:

Milsurp's are beautiful. My two favorite guns are my M1 and my Enfield No4mk1. Got my 1911 in the mail yesterday  ;D Here's my M1. '43 Winchester with a 59 date VAR barrel. It looks much better than in the pics, my camera's strange at times.

I'm going to say my Goretex socks. Every time I went to the field in SQ, weather it was target designation, GRITS, the ranges, it rained. Everyone else had wet feet except my buddy and I. Boots dried, didn't have to change socks until the next day it was great. Luckily it didn't rain on our...

The C8 works well for Urban Warfare too, we used them in training this past weekend.

My thoughts too Infanteer  :o

New I think, it's not the same one as the other thread. 10 sec commercial before it plays. After doing some intense FIBUA training (Ex Black Bear) this past weekend, really opens my eyes even more to Iraq...

McG the thing is though is the civies that ask are those type that think our entire Army is over there. Not just a few soldiers here and there, with the Brits or whatever. That's why the question is really annoying. They just assume things like if a guy's in the Army, then he'll be going to...

Personally, I think the "Are you going to Iraq?" question is the worst. That really shows how much people watch the ******* news (pardon my language). I've been asked it many times, not in jest either.

Let's see, where to begin with this one... "Are you going to Iraq?" - serious question, multiple times. I've been called a cadet, and a scout, while in uniform. (some chick with her boyfriend walked by two others and myself and said something along the lines of "What are they, scouts? Look...

Your parents don't know what they're talking about. General concern of parents, along with everything else they get concerned about, just join lol.

Sort of a rant, but that kind of attitude pisses me off. I think that's a total bullshit excuse, the whole lacking equipment and funds. You obviously have no idea what is involved in being a soldier in our army. If you go into it with a mind like that, you will miss everything going on around...

Yea I admit the T.V. was nice during the games, Michael. I don't generally go into the other room where the TV is, but I did the other night to watch the training from the weekend before, and a British SAS thing.

CoD:UO, Half-Life (Day of Defeat, CS, and CS:Source), Tom Clancy's R6: Ravenshield (good game!!), BF1942 (Desert Combat mainly), used to play Vietcong until it stoppe working. I'm super insane about realism in games. I did not like the original CoD, it was an SMG spam fest, like no one used...

He should have used blanks, like all us Reservists do, hit anyone from any range.  ;D

Also along the lines of pronouncing...Liberal or Lieberal. Sorry, I had to throw that in there =P. If it was out of line, then PT for me.

It was our BMQ field ex and we were learning about blanks, safety with them, using the BFA properly, etc. The Sgt. came over to our gaggle formation and asked who wanted to fire blanks. 6-7 hands shot up, I was very reluctant, as we all know any time you're asked to do something fun, it's either...

I threw 2 M67 Grenades on my SQ. The rest of the course did also, and some of the instructors too. They all went off.
