LOL @ Doug, fortunately the local USPSA match has free 9mm and 5.56 for active military, that should help to keep the costs down. I guess that the equivalent of free crack, just bring your own (very expensive) pipes. :D

Scores came out today, 35th of 40. Woohoo, I'm not the worst! I might have moved up a few slots if not for a procedural penalty and a moronic error on my part (started a stage with a half loaded mag). Ahh the good times. Gonna shoot my first IPSC match this Saturday. Best part, free ammo. Hard...

I shot my first ever IDPA match yesterday and I discovered 3 things. 1. Competitive shooting is ridiculously fun. I'm hooked. 2. I'm a horrible shot. It was a humbling experience to watch guys (and a few gals) old enough to have voted for JFK beating the crap out me, a snot nosed 31 year...

Great suggestions, Heinlein's work is magnificent.

I was perusing Jeff Coopers commentaries, and being impressed as usual by the mans vast stores of knowledge, I was driven to start a list of books that every man should read and have in his library. As I started to ponder the matter I was reminded of Voltaire when he said "A multitude of books...

You're on your own on that one I'm afraid :D

EDIT ZOOKRIDER - Could you go to the Flickr site and translate all of the pages (according to their numbers.... ) ? Perhaps this weekend, I'm at work at the moment.

"Force projection is sending many to south america as they have been doing. Plus turning all the cargo transports into troop transports. All they have to do is get the stuff that is in south america together and roll into the great plains after they nuke a few cities here. Ignoring China...

RTFM, a few points for your consideration: 1. China has no interest in competing with the US on any battlefield other than the market place. China is a rapidly growing economic power house with nothing to gain by getting into a military pissing match with us and everything to lose. China is...

As a college grad you can enlist in the Army under one of two options: OCS enlistment option - It is in your contract that you will go to OCS immedietly after Basic Training. Student Loan Reimbursment Option - You are enlisted as an E-4 and the Army pays back your student loans. Hope...

My universal answer to all questions regarding why I carry or am carrying a gun: "Because it suits me to do so." I owe no explanation to anybody and will only give one if I believe the person to be truly interested in engaging me in an intelligent dialogue. In other words, rarely.

Rather then censor my posts I simply don't post at all if I know my opinion will not be well received.

For the majority of those PMC security gigs non prior military/leo need not apply. You won't even be considered.

The reality is that the cops are held to a different standard than you or I. If confronted with a dangerous situation I have the choice to avoid it, a cop does not, they are bound to respond. That being said, I believe that justifiable force is justifiable regardless of who exercised it. All of...

My buddy has a Moss 500 with 4 chokes and a slug barrel that he is offering me for $200. I haven't seen it nor shot it, but assuming it's in decent shape, is this a good deal?

I'm trying to find this cat, I heard he lives in my town and will teach Texas CCL classes for military members for a good price, but I don't know how to reach him. I know he is a member here, and I know that he was deployed to the sandbox but should be back soon if not already. If anybody knows...
