    The Military and range time

    I am in a stryker brigade(in iraq right now) and when in garrison we did 2-3 ranges a month. Most were very good CQB training with some very well trained retired SF guys. I am not a combat MOS. The CAV and Infantry guys in my brigade were at the ranges daily. They did a lot of the battle...

    Special treatment for military and police?

    What you may not read or hear about with the military cases are the punishment given by the millitary. Not only do we get in trouble with the civilian courts, but we will also get in trouble with the uniform code of military justice. That means on top of whatever the civilian judge gives us...

    What Are Your State's Shooting Qualifications?

    I personally don't want a national permit or shooting requirements. That is the quickest way for the anti's to make it impossible to get a permit. They can place such difficult standards that no one can pass. Also, should they make us pass qualification tests to be able to vote, or to have...

    Does the US Army teach basic gun safety?

    I am in the same Brigade as these two soldiers, and we are still deployed to Iraq. From what I know of this, if the SFC had lived he would have been in more trouble than the CPL. From what I have heard this was some stupid game that the SFC played with his soldiers. The CPL just didn't...

    Not sure how to deal with a neighborhood situation. Advice appreciated.

    Just wondering why so many of you are only telling him to watch these delinquints. The more laws that we just ignore, and allow people to break, the more they will break them. We all need to turn people in for breaking the law. Sign sworn statements, get witnesses and take them to task. If...
