  1.   Take advantage of it, I sure as hell would.  Go from making $50k/year to a few mil is an opportunity few would turn down.
  2.   Greenies are a few steps below a seal.  You never hear about delta for anything, the only incident I can remember they were ever in the public eye was during Somali.  They're about like the Sayeret Matkal and stay in the shadows
  3.    I googled it up to see where the quote came from, it was from Richard Marcinko the first seal team 6 commander.  I'd have to say it seems to be a legit claim.
  4. Already ordered, but it hasn't arrived yet so it counts as a new one: Zenith mp5rs Going to SBR it and put one of the sliding stocks on it first, next will be find a suppressor. Would have loved to actually get one with a fun button on it, but costs are too high to justify that.
  5. I'm 100% certain they are counting in support as well.  Seals have virtually unlimited resources... Hell even the spec ops in the army had what we seen as unlimited resources.  When we were at Ft Stewart, we had to teach them how to operate a tank and we had never seen so much ammo come in for them to use.  As a company of 14 tanks, for one firing table each tank would see about 15 main gun rounds, maybe 4000 7.62 and 200 .50cal  When those guys came in they had a row of trucks sitting on the range carrying main gun rounds (each truck normally carried about 500 hundred rounds) and probably the equivalent of a semi-truck full of small arms ammo.   They shot more that day in our tanks than I shot in an entire 6 years active duty, including a combat deployment.
  6.   lol   you have to add in the support aspects of of the operators as well, and the vehicle mounted weapons used.  A single M134 can run through 6000 rpm, put one of those on each of the boats doing a hot extract, say 10 boats with 9 on them plus crew.  5 minutes of firing would consume 300,000 rounds by themselves.  That's a very, very conservative number for a single type of weapon for a short period on a single training event.  As far as how much they actually fire with personal weapons, that dude that said he shot bin laden said they do shoot thousands of rounds per day training.
  7. Watching a documentary - they said that seal team six shoots more ammunition in a year than the entire marine corps ammunition allowance.  :rock:
  8. YMMV but with God as my witness I wouldn't trust simplisafe to protect an empty shed. People may say the same thing about the company I use now too, or NCA. I would recommend doing some research online and get feedback from people that use alarms that have had actual intrusions or failures, and not rely on feedback from people who have installed one and never faced any threats or failures.

    +1 for gr8smiles, him and his son/crew are great. Glad I switched to them.
  10. Ours is $14.99/month through cell monitoring.   Think that's the same price NCA charges, it does have to be monitored for the homeowners discount of 10%, and that savings pays almost the entire monitoring cost.

      Yeah, one of my old bosses got me to watch it.  Had to stop, go back and watch season one before continuing.  Really cool show.
  12. Screw simplisafe. I may have posted it on here before, but the short version is: We had them in our apartment in brentwood. Bought a house, moved out a month early but left the alarm there to protect from vandals until the lease was up. Went back after a few weeks just to check and our door was unlocked. Maintenance had waltzed in, the door sensor didn't go off and the motion sensor didn't go off. The alarm was still armed. The base station lost connection, when I called dispatch they said it lost contact about a week prior. They never thought to contact us when it lost connection? Even a week into the outage. Biggest POS alarm system ever. You may save a few dollars, but are you willing to risk your safety for it? If so I may still have a few sensors and a base station from them you can have for free cause I wouldn't put that junk on an empty shed. We use ACE alarms now and couldn't be happier. From the time our glass break sensor went off until they called for the code word was less than 30 seconds. (Was false alarm luckily)
  13. depends on what's in writing.
  14. Don't do it, buy a Springfield

    Forgot about blacklist, that is kid safe and a fantastic show. Better call Saul started off slow on season 1, if they don't turn it up in season 2, it won't be around much longer.
  16. Maybe he's hoping for more gifts? :d

    You may like the Leftovers. That show just finished the second season and it started taking on the style that Lost was shot in, going between characters in the same situation, but on different time lines leading to the same point. It's pretty interesting the way they shot it.
  18. Just did some google-fu and the 320 specifically has a disconnect to keep it from firing when out of battery.
  19.   that was definitely Glock's fault.  Need to change your story.
  20. Nope, no one ever makes a mistake like that, it's always the gun's fault.
  21. Have to be honest, they did have some pretty good looking tacos!
  22. Yeah pete, the eastern front is where a huge portion of the prolonged ground war occurred. In America, most of us only pick up on two things during WWII; the nukes and D Day
  23. If they would stop spending the GD gas tax money on projects that didn't have anything to do with highways, there would be ZERO problems.
  24. Btq96r pretty much covered it. Must be something in the air, I just did a 6 hour binge watch of WWII documentaries.
  25. Usually mad world posts from decent sources, if it turns out to be fake then I guess I'll drop them off the lists of places to visit.
