    GAU-17 (Dillon Minigun)

    Jorg You are absolutely right, and it was not my intention to try to "slam" you. You are working from the data you have, and I am too. Different data, right? Thank you for researching and coming to the conclusion you did. My respect for you is several notches higher. Warm regards to you...

    GAU-17 (Dillon Minigun)

    I've contacted OPNAV N85 in the Pentagon and spoke to a Marine Gunny GSGT White and a Major Gambol. Your request is now known. Now, it all begins and ends with the requirement boys, but that doesn't really mean crap. It has to translate to the Acquisition side. My conversations will...

    GAU-17 (Dillon Minigun)

    I'm sharing my emperical, hands-on experience and knowledge. I am not interested in how Dillon rates their miniguns. I'm telling you what I know. A subscription to Jane's is expensive, but before you contradict me, I suggest you do the requisite background research. One can toggle between...

    John Galt is the character in question in Rand's book, as well as a senior member of this board. Since Galt was taken, I chose the spelling Gault, as I knew all of you would get it anyway. Coincidently, I also majored in Physics and Philosophy as an undergrad.

    Decline in violent crime rate

    That's one of the why my wife and I want to have as many baby's as we can. We want to raise them right. They all get guns at thirteen.

    Wal-mart did it to me again

    Still true in other sectors. I recently had to carry a very expensive E&O Bond (Errors and Ommissions) on my work in case what I represented was not true.

    Is it legal to own a SAM or MANPADS (surface to air missiles) in the United States?

    Yes. I was once the desk in the Pentagon that reviewed whether certain technology could be released to foriegn national governments. Oddly, many of those requests were from US civilians. It makes a certain kind of odd sense to have the same guy in on the whole picture. Exactly. Remember...

    Giuliani to Face the N.R.A.

    Translation: The different situation is now, I'm running for President. Translation: And keeping them out of the hands of law abiding citizens. Translation: Let's violate the constitution. Oh, and nationalize healthcare and an identification system. I apologize for slightly...

    Sheriff proud of civilian using shotgun for HD

    That made me laugh out loud. I called my wife in so that I could read it to her.

    GAU-17 (Dillon Minigun)

    6000 rounds per minute. Every 12th round is a phosphorous tracer, so try to fit in your mind another 11 rounds between each red tracer. We had two of them, one on each side of our helo as a "side suppression weapon" to be used to keep the bad guys' heads down during CSAR. Clearly the boys...

    Anyone Considered These for CCW?

    I laughed when I saw that you pay more the higher you want your "rank" to be.

    You are the prof; an adult college student is printing. What do you do?

    One one hand I'm pro gun. On the other hand I could potentially lose my employment by breaking a law. I say the venue to change existing laws is not in the field. I agree with and have already made the point that teachers should be allowed to carry. That does not mean I'm carrying during...

    Maryland Shoot - Oct 28, 2007

    Sounds like a good time. I used to live (and my Ex still does, blarg) in Waldorf. Very reasonable cost quotes. I'd go if I still lived in that world.

    Is banning handguns a "reasonable regulation"?

    Well written and well thought out, Desertdog. However, are you expecting anything different from gun opponents? They have an agenda that does not include logic or statistics. Your argument is grounded in logic and statistics. The opposing argument is grounded in emotion. No surprises all...
