That’s an 80’s porn star ‘stashe.

LOL! So when you weren't serving our nation over seas, you were fixing the cable boxes and cleaning pools for lots of young women?

Well, back to gun related stuff.
I dug out a French poky thing. And yes, I have a rifle to fit it. I got it at a pawn shop after talking them down to $40. To bad it didn’t have a sheath.

 

[Sistema1927]

Be careful that you don't poke out an eye with the French poky thing.

You found Rosalie!

It’s like the creepy Reba version of Col Sanders, only not on Reba. I bet you were proud of that starling on your face.

At least he won’t shoot his eye out with it,
Oh sorry wrong movie

Almost everyday. I still don’t like working on vehicles due to the smell.
This was taken on the third day. You can see my M16A2 in front of me.

This was taken two hours after the ceasefire was called. You can see the barrel of my M16A2 on my right, but can’t see the Iraqi made AK that I was holding in my left hand.

All I can see is that out of regulation mustache. Semper Fi. LOL. I grew one quite similar in Korea, the Company Commander let it go till we were due to head back to Okinawa.

Here’s something that most of y’all haven’t seen. German k98 chamber cleaning tool.


Only two of them are marked, but all are made of Beech.


To use, you just put a patch in the slot and put in the chamber and turn.

Sarco still has them buried on their website, albeit without the valuable waffenamt markings. It actually works pretty well with most bolt actions around .30 caliber as a chamber cleaner. It is a gentle way of using JB bore bright to polish a chamber.

A.J. Parker sold identical ones here at one time.

Here is a Short belt of 7.62x51 NATO training ammo for the M60. They are Lake City 66.


They are filled with sand.


They have primer pockets but no flash holes.

 

[Sistema1927]

I carried an M60 in Korea. Don't ever remember seeing that practice ammo. Maybe it was a Marine Corps thing. I spent 4 hours behind that gun with live ammo in the tray at MOP Level IV in 1983. A Chinese fighter pilot had defected, and there was enough confusion the whole country went on alert. They even opened up the AA on him between Inchon and Seoul. I poured the piss out of that MOP suit and threw it away.

 

[ontarget]

I have a belt of M60 blanks. Can't remember exactly how I procured them but they make a good conversation piece.

 

[RedlegRick]

As a former M60 gunner, just those words makes me shudder. Hated cleaning after firing those things and for some unfathomable reason they wanted us making even more noise than we did.

Hey, if you can grow it and rock it, I'm all for it. Me, I try and grow a 'stashe and it looks like someone hit a caterpillar with a frying pan.
