    M-16 vs M-4 vs What?

    We use the M870 out here. Seems like a good shotgun, don't have any problems putting rounds on target out to 15-25 yards.

    Badger? The most annoying? No way, check out the foxes, or at least the Badgers in soccer outfits. What about potatoes? Or THIS? I don't know what is it or what it means...but it is incredibly annoying... WTF???? Huh? What?? And there's many more... Ugh... Edit: While the...

    Well, despite the fact that there were no references, and no hard evidence besides baseless assertions. Despite the fact that many of the pictures were pretty generic and could have been googled in a matter of moments, despite the fact that none of the names had any sort of credibility at...

    duke: It's been 2 years, but I believe Nf is the Power Turbine speed (Remember that by using "(N)ot (f)orward"). Ng is the gas generator as I recall Nt is Transmission speed Nr is Rotor Speed The real question is: What is FNg? :D Edit: Not sure what a "flex shaft" is though...not a...

    M-16 vs M-4 vs What?

    I agree with Fly Navy. I don't much buy into stopping power. You can shoot someone in the chest with a .22 short and kill them if you hit just right, conversely, you can pepper someone in the chest w/ 7.62 and they might live until they bleed out... It is all about round placement, not...

    M-16 vs M-4 vs What?

    That's what I was implying...at the max effective range it is losing enough velocity to start tumbling. Also what I meant when I said I believe the problem was more prevalent with the A1 because it had a lower groove ratio in the barrel. I don't know the A1, the A2 is 1:7

    M-16 vs M-4 vs What?

    At a far enough distance it begins tumbling...but that is where max effective range starts coming into play. Also, I believe the A1 was more prone to tumbling due to less grooves in the barrel and a lighter round. The lighter round also tumbled on impact and bounced around people's internal...

    Battleships

    I think the reasoning is that Aircraft Carriers sort of took over the "force projection" role. I mean, in the past we would park a Battleship in someone's dock and say "Hey, are you listening to us?" now we can do the same thing with a CAG, and have the added benefit of cool jets to fly...

    The new cammies are good to go. I hated them when they came out, but now, I like them. But I still don't like the boots. I had the real tall Carolina jump boots that shined up perfectly, they were awesome. These new boots are ugly. You look like you are ready to crush some skulls with...

    Nike shox

    Can you run 3 miles in 18 minutes in them? Or at least in less than 24 minutes in them? I believe the instructors may be more concerned with your run time than your run fashion.

    Yeah, it's terrible. Now instead of simply putting fishing line in my creases and sowing down my pockets to get my 4.8's (or my good FITREP), I have to actually do stuff. :D

    Makes the pre-flight safety brief on how to ditch in the event of a water landing seem a lot more important all of a sudden :) Remember having the same feeling the first time I flew over the Colorado. I was kind of gaffing off the safety brief before the flight, but the first time the pilot...

    Question about base pay for PLC grads

    You would be paid as an O-1E, not an O-1 http://www.defenselink.mil/militarypay/pay/bp/paytables/Jan2005_Basic_Pay.html As far as I know, you don't lose any pay due to broken time, so if you were Enlisted for 5 years, and came back again for 2 years, you would be paid as an O-1E w/ 7 years.

    Is it easier for Marines?

    PFT aside, it is also harder to be a Marine Officer simply because of the ratio of enlisted to officer. The Marine Corps has 8.39 enlisted Marines for every one officer. The Army has 5.27, the Air Force 5.6 and the Navy 6.0
