      can you do me a favor

      There's a service called military one source, I'm not certain they will be able help a vietnam vet or if it's just vets of these most recent conflicts, but they are a good resource for referral to services and counselling. There is no shame in seeking help! America has lost too many good men in...

      Off to see the Army recruiter today...

      Tell him to learn a trade in the service! Then even if he hates that trade he can use the gi Bill to learn another after he is out. Nobody worth working for needs a machinegunner or the like. And yes, the 31 in my username denotes 0331, infantry machinegunner in the usmc, so I know that of...

      Man claims to have been adrift for 16 months

      As far as drinking the turtle blood, when i was at the mountain warfare school for the usmc, the instructors said blood is treated like a solid by our stomachs because of all the proteins and other cells and things in it, as well as curdling/coagulation that stomach acids might cause. So i don't...

      road trip/moving day distractions?

      Thanks for the responses, all! Unfortunately the auto hauler we are pulling will not follow well at the speeds we were hoping to travel, thus increasing our travel time by about ten to fifteen percent. Its going to be a long haul full of disgusted looks today, i think, and probably no time for...

Our route takes us northeast through birmingham, AL then north on 65 til 465. Attractions dont have to be gun related, but he and i are both 2a...

      Potting soil as a "sand barrel" for handguns?

      Its all about the density of the pack. I think the usmc taught me that 3 sandbags of packed dirt were required to do the same job as one bag of sand, because the sand particles fit together tighter. I distinctly remember an instructor firing rounds into ammo cans full of dirt, water, and sand. I...

      Deer Hunting Shotgun Recommendations

      I enjoy my h&r ultra slug hunter, but it is a dedicated slug gun. I find it plenty accurate for my needs, and it wasnt ridiculously expensive. If i recall correctly it was about $280.

      Fork Violence. It's the new fad.

      When i went to boot camp in san diego some dummy in my platoon drew blood from his cheek with a fork on our 2nd day because he was eating too fast. The remainder of our three months there we were never allowed forks again. Ever try to eat an overcooked porkchop with a spoon in a hurry? And dont...

      stun guns for sale!

      I'm looking to see what the consensus is on the pointless crackling of those stun gun/taser things that some of the vendors like to set off. does that noise make anyone else jumpy? i absolutely hate that sound, especially when its not announced. what say you, ingo? annoying or not?
