Finback is so... ungainly looking.

This is true. They also know you didn't live there prior to the ban.

Interesting way to do it.

x = 2nd Lts y = 1st Lts z = Capts x + y = 30 x + z = 45 y + z = 35 Solve. It's a simple algebraic substitution problem, with just 3 variables as opposed to 2.

Lots of fakes out there. Personally, I'm all for the public embarassment of them.

It was the mother of all tank battles... just not the way he predicted :)

Me too.

How was he carrier qual'd?

From someone who over-studies at times.... go drink and have fun. The pain will begin shortly.

There is NO, I repeat NO provisions for anyone to bring high-capacity magazines into the state. You MUST have owned them before the ban came into effect. You can NOT transfer them or sell them to another person, they must remain yours, be destroyed, or sold out of state. CA gun laws suck. MA...

"Eagle, Crapshoot 11, Picture" "Eagle, Picture, Group Anchor 111, 24, Track North, BOGEY, Spades" "DAMN IT!" Of course, all my experience is in the canned RAG training... did DCA in the sim though, defending the ship.... crazy :)

VID. Good times. Talk about being defensive.

Hahaha

That was McDonalds, not KFC.

The Coast Guard gave us a presentation on their Guardian jets during Primary once... set to loud, heavy music.... real moto right? Except it was video of the jet flying straight and level the entire time. *yawn*

OPSEC warning.

Haha, good man. That being said, sometimes people's hands don't mesh up with the P226... big grip. My hands fit the P226 just fine, but I think the P229/P228 is one of the most perfect grips EVER made.

mikelack: We can use what we please. Just have to buy it. Key to a good kneeboard in a single-pilot tactical cockpit, at least in my experience, is simplicity. 15 pouches and 300 pages of stuff doesn't generally help. It's always funny watching guys start T-45s... they have the ENTIRE...

I like this man's thinking.

It is still trained to. Yes. I'm not going to say more because I'm not sure where the OPSEC line is and well, I always have a hard time remember what I learn is classified or not.

YES! Good man, can't go wrong with SIG. I have a P226 9mm. Still my favorite pistol. Go to www.sigforum.com

You just made me think of Weekend at Bernie's 2.

Was Matt Stone saying it was wrong to show it to him?

A long and proven fact before the Navy put a label on it.

Well that's good to know. I never understood how they can have "practical" in the title with people shooting those race-guns. Hardly practical. Picture shooting inside the "house" is neat.

Why not IDPA? Who wants to compete against a bunch of race guns... that's not realistic. Cool as sh!t to watch though. Cool pics, looks fun, I've always wanted to try.

Ahh, yes a 1911 chambered in .38 Super. The .38 Super is a neat cartridge, used extensively in competition. Many European countries like it too because in many Euro countries, you can not own a firearm chambered in a military cartridge.

Lost me here

The .45ACP falls into the "heavy and slow" bullet category. 9mm tends to be "light and fast". It's all relative. .40 tends to be "sorta heavy and sorta fast". Real simple... there are generall two camps... those that like light and fast and those that like heavy and slow. There are pros and...

Still my favorite Christmas movie ;) Good discussion. I like gun talk :)

No, you seem knowledgeable, I'm just trying to dispel the bad gouge on 9mm. Nothing debateable that I've read. I steer clear of reading anything that is more "emotional"... i.e. maybe the writer has an axe to grind on one ammo vs another. Any mentioned of .45 "knocking a man down" and I'm...

Going into an unfamiliar airport is a challenge (not saying the pilots were unfamiliar)... going into a smaller airport with less facilities, less lighting, less aides, etc, makes it a little tougher. Sh!t happens. People make mistakes. There was an airliner that crashed into the Everglades...

Of real world shootings, not jello tests, not scientific ballistic data, actual people being shot and sometimes killed, quality 9mm, .40, and .45 JHPs performed nearly identically. We're talking 96-98% one-shot-stops fired into the chest. Now, of course you can't go off of one-stop-shots in real...

Mmm, incorrect. First of all, 115gr is widely regarded as too light for 9mm. The 127gr +P+ load or the 147gr P load are excellent performers. They are ON PAR with a 230gr JHP. Believe it. 9mm, .40, .45... it doesn't matter. In a QUALITY JHP, they perform nearly identically. Now, bring a rifle...

Great topic of discussion for AW.

Some are designed that way too. 9mm FMJ is designed for penetration. Over-penetration of a human body is normal for that bullet (and others). Just food for thought :)

I remember watching a show about F-117 development. They had two teams working on it concurrently in two hangars, next to each other. They worked in such shifts that they didn't know the other team existed or that there were two F-117s being developed. Pretty wild.

Try the SIG P229/P228 series if you're looking for something mid-size (P226 being a full-size duty pistol... ala same size Beretta 92FS). Also, the Glock 23 is a mid-size version of the Glock 22. What model S&W was it?

You mean Quantico?

I have a Glock 23, it's a fine piece.

Great choice, glad you like it :) It's a great handgun, I love just looking at mine :) Can't go wrong with a SIG in semi-auto ;) I will strongly recommend AGAINST the FN Five Seven if you want it for anything other than novelty. There is no practical application of the Five Seven for...

Lobbing missiles at range is not the same as closing for a gun kill.

Not every region of the country has as up to date imagery. Some will be more up to date than others.

The entire South is a meth haven.

Why not? It'd be like the Brett Youth ;)

In general, with Pensacola you can tell by looking at the houses in the neighborhood. It's a general rule of thumb, doesn't always work. Don't live "downtown". As for specifics, it's been a while since I've been there, so I'll let others chime in. Last I checked, the biggest crime is the drug trade.

Well, Key West det is delayed. DAMN IT!

Great movie. Was on last night.

"Darkstar, Judy Judy", freakin hilarious :)

Because snakes on an airplane is a genius concept, that's why.
