  3. When I was there in '04 a few of us would participate in the "Operation Pencil Box" where we went to villages and gave school supplies and sports equipment to kids. I really respected the fact that my Seniors understood that most of the population didn't give a dang if Hussien, US Soldiers or any other people were there, they just wanted to survive till the next day. It was a great opportunity to talk with village elders and general population. It's funny that I couldn't recall where any of the combatants that received my teams lead or we captured were Iraqi - the SIR reports almost always showed they were from another country. He'll many times we raided housing due to intelligence from the locals, they knew who wasn't from the area. Bought many a watermelons from farmers who for generations toiled the same earth for rich landowners, these guys kids will be doing what their father and grandfather did on that land. I've seen and cleaned up civilian vehicles ran over by tanks and thought - my brothers needed help, tank took the shortest route - I'm sorry this happened, wish it didn't but sadly brothers in uniform comes first. Not bragging, but I was the only CC that had an M249 as a primary and have used up more drums than I can remember. It breaks my heart that I have several battle buddies who choose to be on the streets, couldn't cope with all that happened. But to this day, those of us that are able to stay the path, those that have taken to the streets and those that have lost the will and took what arguably could be considered the weak mans route would not wish harm on the civilians in Iraq.

  13. What do you think those U.S. numbers would have been if we had a full scale amphibious invasion of the Japanese main land? My dad had fought with the 101st all through France, Belgium and Germany, he had done and seen enough but you know they would have sent combat hardened troops from Europe to the Pacific for an invasion. He did re-enlist in 46 and went to Japan as a part of the occupation army of Japan. That's where he met my mom, the daughter of an army captain in the signal corps. I might even owe my existence to the atomic bomb. Thank you atomic bomb. :)

Magnuson-Moss Act says that for the dealer to deny a warranty claim, they have to prove that your modifications were the direct cause of failure. They can't blame your lift for your power window regulator going bad, etc.

  18. From the Lebanon PD facebook page: Thank you everyone for your positive responses to our Safe Exchange Zone. We really think it will provide a safe environment for commerce. So, in addition to the Lebanon Police Department site, we are providing a secondary site at our Public Safety/Emergency Services Unit location, 1017 Sparta Pike. Gun exchanges WILL BE ALLOWED at this location. The reason gun exchanges are not allowed at the police department is due to our City Court process and general public access to the department. We want to safeguard citizens and civilian personnel at that location. However, our ESU location, while also safe and under 24 hour surveillance, does not have public access or court proceedings. The picture below shows the area designated for the Safe Exchange Zone, and signs will be posted in the very near future. We hope this will satisfy all the needs of those wishing to participate. Again, thank you for your support. https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=1215499075140421&id=134190043271335&substory_index=0 Location 1017 Sparta Pike, Lebanon, TN 37087 https://goo.gl/maps/cUJGMRXSuFD2

  22. Worth noting that 71 years ago today (March 4, 1945), William H. “Bill” Genaust, a Sergeant in the USMC and a war photographer who is most famous for capturing the Flag Raising on Iwo Jima on color film with his 16 millimeter camera, was killed when he entered a darkened cave and was shot to death. He had volunteered to use his camera light so that he could light the way for other marines entering the cave when he was killed. The cave mouth was covered over by bulldozing equipment, and his body was never recovered.

  24. Classic has the only remaining primary market M39's left, as they purchased the rest of the rifles that John Burns imported directly from Finland in the late 90's.  As for the "brand", get what you want, the VKT's are rarer than the SAKOs but a lot of people favor the SAKO rifles as that's a recognizable stamping from the later rifles they made for the civilian market, VKT was the Finnish state arsenal and never produced later rifles for civilian sales.  An unscrubbed Eagle is pretty much luck of the draw, a lot of the M39's are scrubbed but some managed to miss that particular modification. The hang tag is of interest to collectors, but it's not something that is highly valued.  From what I've seen of the M39's that Classic has left in stock, you are more likely to get a post-war refurbed rifle ( a "pretty" one) by choosing the SAKO option, a lot of the VKT's seem to be in wartime condition with the requisite "character marks" normally associated with those guns.  Those are the ones I normally look for, I like the "been there and done that" look myself ...

  31. I'm glad you are getting one of the M39s to start with. They are high quality guns and the ones that Classic Firearms has are priced fairly. The SKS's are nice guns, though I would get the M39 if in your shoes. I would recommend a Sako over the VKT. I have both a VKT and a Sako and the Sako is much nicer. Classic Firearms made some big mistakes when they had their first shipment of the M39s and a lot of folks getting a Sako and a lot of folks didn't get what was described. One of our TGO folks paid for a Sako hand select the the stock was cracked. To their credit, Classic admitted their mistake and made changes to improve. In my opinion, the hang tag is over rated at $25. It would appeal to collectors. You can google 'M39 hang tag', and click on the images tab to see what they look like. My recommendation would be to get a Sako and pay the $20 for hand select. If you have money left over, you may look at the un issued SKS over the M48 if you can afford it and if you like semi automatic rifles. The M48s are nice, no doubt, though you'll already have a vintage military bolt action and the SKS rifles are a lot of fun. I'm a WW2 history enthusiast. The M48 definitely has more historical significance than the SKS. Having said that, a lot of NVA and Viet Cong used the SKS in the Vietnam War. Pic below.

  40. 30x30?  No grass.  Make a flowerbed.  Plant low maintenance, shade tolerant perennials such as hosta, ferns, bleeding heart, coleus, spirea, astilbe,  etc.  They'll fill in and choke out the weeds in a few years.  Mulch it in the spring before everything comes out and it's pretty with essentially zero maintenance all summer.

  41. And as a follow up: http://www.khou.com/story/news/crime/2016/03/02/cameras-capture-crooks-breaking-into-gun-store/81229984/ HARRIS COUNTY, Texas – Houston police and ATF agents arrested multiple people and recovered several firearms stolen from Carter's Country Guns & Ammo. New surveillance video was released Wednesday afternoon showing a gang of ten men busting into a gun store in southwest Houston. The men, who are still on the run, smashed open cases with a hammer and ransacked the place, filling bags with guns and ammo. The whole thing only took a little more than 2 minutes. The surveillance videos begin just after 4:30 a.m. Tuesday. Ten suspects, using hoodies masks and gloves to conceal their identities, break the front doors of Carter’s Country gun store on Wilcrest near Southwest Freeway. Less than 30 seconds later one of them uses a pickup with chains to pull the security bars right off, and the others rush in. KHOU HPD: Guns stolen in smash and grab at Carter's Country Video shows the suspects smashing the glass cases with hammers and jumping over the counter, grabbing long rifles by the armful and throwing handguns and ammo into bags. Just over a minute after running into the store, they run out and are gone. Police say the suspects switched vehicles about a block away and sped off in a Chevy SUV. The ATF, who is investigating the case alongside Houston police, told KHOU on Tuesday that smash and grabs like this one are on the rise around Houston. Thieves often sell the guns to other criminal groups for a profit, and they’re often used in other, more violent crimes.

  45. A J-Frame Smith either OWB or pocket carry. I have had several of my fellow HCP holders explain to me that I stand no chance against the ISIS battle group that inevitably assaults my neighborhood Walmart. Whereas, they with their neato double column semi-autos will be able to save the day by taking out the entire ISIS organization with two extra magazines of 9MM. This is based on their combat experience at some neat school at some pistol range. I spent a total of 60 months in combat in VietNam (4 Tours) with the USMC so I am in no position to question their superior logic. I only need 5 shots to shoot the dumb SOB that goes looking for me and finds my hiding place.
