    [GUN] 357 or 45?

    Hey, if y'all are talking about old school guns, then I'd have to go with a Colt Peacemaker or an 1873 Winchester repeating rifle.

    Flying aboard backwards...

    YOu can see the camo pattern of their BDU's. Their shoulders and arms are visible. Take a closer look to either side of the aisle.

    Saltier Marines - what's your best advice for a brand new 2ndLt?

    I'm not a Marine, but I will impart a little advice that has always worked for me in new environments and situations. Keep both eyes and ears open, and your mouth shut until you know what's going on.

    [GUN] Remington Model 1853

    Most of the ones I want to inherit are in pretty good shape, provided they need to be stripped down and cleaned. All the others are rusted-out beyond all repair. But thanks, I hadn't thought of taking them to a gunsmith. Is there a national registry of gunsmiths that can help me find one in my area?

    [GUN] 357 or 45?

    Man, there have been a lot of gun threads recently. I'd go with the .45 because they're cool. I now open up the floor to those who have more important things to say.

    [GUN] Remington Model 1853

    Oh, and as mentioned above, I might be coming into the ownership of many of his collection of handguns as much of the rest of my family is uninterested in them. So, does anybody have any experience with the Colt Commander, chambered in .45 ACP? Also, when I was inspecting the "Baby" Browning .25...

    [GUN] Remington Model 1853

    Really, the muzzle was about .75 inches in diameter. Would that be due to corrosion, or would it be made bigger for expansion of the bullet? Oh, and a picture.

    Total Ejections a Pilot can make?

    Sweet lookin' ride. And seeing as how there are ejection stories being told, I feel like sharin' one courtesy of my uncle who flew F-4s in the Air Force and later ANG. In fact he retired the last frontline service Phantom from active duty to the Arizona desert. So, there my uncle was, training...

    Astronaut Possibilities?

    Active duty test pilots assigned as test pilots only. I have always wondered how that worked because I have heard of some test pilots who are with NASA referred to by pay grade and branch of service. Whether or not they were retired while they were NASA test pilots, I can't tell you.

    [GUN] Remington Model 1853

    Anyone on these here boards familiar with Civil War era rifles and weaponry? If so I need your help. I was perusing through my grandfather's old gun collection which includes a Colt Commander .45, a Browning 6mm pistol, a Remington Fieldmaster .22, and a Colt model 1917 revolver; all of which...

    UAVs anybody???

    I'll still take a regular plane thank you very much.

    Astronaut Possibilities?

    What about NASA test pilots? Are they all civilians, or are they liasoned Navy, USMC, and USAF pilots and FO's? How do you apply?

    Reverse Thrust For Push-Back

    Electric motors can generate an immense amount of torque and power! There are very few moving parts and what makes it work is the electro-magnetic force. Here, I'll let WikiPedia explain it to y'all, 'cuz it'll do a better job than I ever could. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_motors

    Total Ejections a Pilot can make?

    I believe they do keep a list and if you eject and survive I believe they even send you a patch that shows you are a member of the Martin-Baker Fan Club. But there is a list of everyone who has ever ejected on a Martin-Baker seat. I wonder if the Russkies do the same thing? I hear they have...

    VMI, The Citadel, or VTCC?

    Thanks for your help Lowflier. What's a schedule like for VTCC? Also, I've heard stories of guys sneaking-out of the barracks at night at places like the Citadel and VMI. Is that common? Just curious.

    VMI, The Citadel, or VTCC?

    While was still back here on the East Coast, I went and visited VMI and Virginia Tech and I got a couple questions? @VMI What are the rooms like? I've seen pictures and I got a quick glimpse of a room and I did not see a single rack, do they fold out or do y'all sleep on the floor? What's a...

    So are the aforementioned patches indicative of what is worn out there in the fleet, or are these special?

    The Monster COD thread (homage to the C-2A Greyhound)

    I wasn't talking about the Tailhook '91 patch, I was talking about the one with the fat lady on it. I was wondering if there are a lot of patches like that out there.

    The Monster COD thread (homage to the C-2A Greyhound)

    That's a great patch. Could you even wear out in the open, what with current views on sexual harassment and all?

    Great new game

    Yeah, ninjas are cool. But I agree, any game is involving Chuck Norris is unfair.

    Cool t-45 Goshawk Videos!

    Does that happen a lot when trapping aboard the boat? In the civilian world I know that if you land too hard or put the aircraft through just a little too much abuse, the ELT will go off. Makes for great Ground Team/UDF stories though.:D

    I just did my interview today. The recruiter thought I was an outstanding candidate and is putting in a glowing recomendation. It went pretty well. Did anyone else take the Strong Interest Survey thingy?

    Civvy Cobras?

    That's a pretty good idea. As well as the OV-10s mentioned above, they also have old S-2 trackers that they use as water/retardant bombers.

    Hey everybody, I just sent in my application for the NROTC Scholarship today. Wish Me Luck! Also, for those of you who applied, how long did it take to hear back from the Navy? What comes next? Oh, and there was something about an interview, is it tough? Thanks, just wondering what to expect.:D

    I bet that would be super scary riding in the backseat while the guy in front landed on the carrier. Almost might be tempted to grab the stick. Must've took some cajones.

    TWO ITEMS .... MMA in Mugu and carrier in Hawaii ???

    A couple questions, 1)What's MMA stand for? and 2) Isn't the P-3 our only land-based anti-sub and anti-shipping aircraft, and wouldn't it be bad if we did away with that capability?
