Just bought Firefly DVDs tonight. I saw Serenity and saw all the chatter here about the series. never heard of it before. As I spent 2004 in Baghdad I guessed I missed it. Anyway, looking forward to the DVDs, some Jameson, and some quiet time.;)

I spent 2004 in baghdad and will be spending 2006 there as well. I am two weeks out from my flight. Bottom line is this, we like to get everything. The boxes went near the dayroom or common area. I took shampoo, my buddy took soap, so whatever you send we are glad to get. Yeah, there are PXs...

Short Story, The guy who gave me my CHL class had a FFL. he said he would handle transfers or help us order the guy we wanted. Anyway, a few months after the class I found something on line I wanted. Called him and arranged the deal. His first response was why should I do this, I sell...

Bought an old MDL10 for $99 plus shipping. Blueing was gone and I replaced the mainspring. It works like a charm, accurate enough. Not my beside gun, but I would consider myself armed if it was all I had.

Get one. Great pistol. I have a INOX 92FS, a 92G Elite, a 92G Centurion, a 96FS, and a 92G Vertec. I prefer the G model (decock only). Go with houge rubber grips, no finger grooves (okay, coca bola on the INOX a Sunday gun) Get the D springs. Excellent pistols. If you look online...

I own all three. Got to say either one would be an excellent choice. This is not a "should in be a Lorcin or SIG" type issue. :eek: You will be well served by any of them. BUT, I would say the Vertec, but would not feel bad with any one of them.

This story reinforces my philosphy. As I grow older I tend to avoid confrontation if possible. Now do not get me wrong, not a coward, however it seems you never know who you are dealing with. I think is this issue worth my life, becasue it just may get escalated to that point. This is a...

You are not a wuss at all. I used to hunt, I found I enjoyed the feeling of being out in the woods alone. The quiet, nature, and solitude was what I found I liked the best. So I gave up the hunting part. All things die, some things help others die, so be it. If you hunt, fine by me. I...

Okay, where is my cookie. :neener: I called it a safe action many posts ago. :neener: Who cares what it is, it is still a GLOCK. That could be good or bad depending on your opinion.

SIG 229 in 40SW. I have a 226, 225, and 220. Shoot them well. For some reason I can not shoot as well with the 229. I should love it, it is concelable and packs 12 rounds of 40SW, nothing to sneeze at. For some reason it just does not work for me. Oh well, will not sell it though.

lunaslide, Okay, I "missed" that. Like I said, the way it was reported it did not look good for the marines. Clearing them of wrongdoing is fine by me, I am not crying conspiracy. I guess my point was how something was reported is not how the investigation turned out. Big surprise.

Okay, no charges to be filled. Good with me, I did not see the investigation. But if I remember this correctly, these marines were follow on forces. The guy they shot was treated for wounds by other marines and left in the mosque to be captured by other marines. That was what was reported...

I am not a glockaphile, but I believe whatever the Glock does is called the "Glock Safe Action" by the company and experts. :D

Exactly which army regulation "prohibits weapons in govt vehicles and offices"? Does this army regulation only cover privately owned weapons? I have had many weapons in vehicles and offices. Maybe it is not an army regulation but a policey from recruiting command? Personal weapons are...

Interesting thread, I do think some are right on. It is not strength, training, or killer instinct. It is not carrying 200lb buddies around or rucking up a hill. It is the social issue. Females in units (no matter how Hoah they are) distract men. Period. Not all men but enough men. In...
