    Going after real crime !

    5:34 "I am not enabling homelessness." As pointed out the gov't shouldn't arrest an old lady for giving out food. The idea feeding junkies and bums at a park doesn't affect the public, in a public space, where children and families should be able to enjoy themselves, is in my opinion, wrong...

    Cleaning an M4

    Re: Lesson Learned from a LEO on an M4 For those of you asking about gas ring replacement... Extend the bolt and stand the carrier gently on the bolt face. If there is not enough tension to keep the bolt extended, then replace the rings. It would also be a good idea to put a drop or two of...

    ASTB... Flying for USMC

    Re: ASTB... Flying for USMC Who knew everyone would be so fiesty about my comments? In rereading my post it was in poor form, and unprofessional, to say the least. The underlying point is something I will stick with, which has been beaten to death so I will let that lay as well. As for our...

    ASTB... Flying for USMC

    Re: ASTB... Flying for USMC Perhaps you can point me to this ointment, as it sounds like you use it often, or are a butthurtologist yourself, or have seen it alot while casually perusing the aisles of your favorite Pogue Mart. Despite my obviously abismal communication skills, and horribly...

    ASTB... Flying for USMC

    Re: ASTB... Flying for USMC Don't get the hurt feelings because I am not drinking the aviation cool aid. If I jump on the bandwagon and agree that Marine Aviation is the bestest thing ever can I be in the club? When other than aviators wear safety glasses during night land nav in TBS let me...

    ASTB... Flying for USMC

    Re: ASTB... Flying for USMC Does the Air Force actually guarantee that you fly jets? Have no clue. Wasn't suggesting anything about the process with the AF. Point being if you want to fly consider being an Airman. If you want to lead Marines, which is what Marine Officers do, be an...

    Member Link Up Utah Does the state tax military retirement?

    Re: Utah Does the state tax military retirement? Looks like Utah does tax... the below reference from a quick google search so it's not gospel. If you are coming from KY be prepared for a huge cultural difference in Utah. I moved from TN a while ago, and no longer live in UT. Because of...

    f**king wow

    Re: f**king wow Being in the sun for almost two days, wait, that sounds like work, maybe even a job, and then, you get something in return for it, like a piece of paper, that you can then use to gain shelter. I know I have heard of something like this before....

    ASTB... Flying for USMC

    Re: ASTB... Flying for USMC Photon, Best of luck with the process. Food for thought- Why Marine aviation? I found that while you initially get the pride of becoming an Officer of Marines it diminishes when you start looking at the greener grass of Air Force aviation. Like if you are going to...

    Fieldcraft New Ghillie, please critique it

    Re: New Ghillie, please critique it It's great coloring in that it is a little on the lighter side to avoid looking like a dark spot to an observer when you are prone or higher. Good tips to trim it down and keep it shorter and leaner won't hurt. The ghillie is a base for a tight weave with...
