Afghan outrage: U.S. troops scrounge for blankets, bullets

Ummmm...... Yeah, I spent a couple of days in the Army, and a few hours in that AOR (and many others) -
Afghan outrage: U.S. troops scrounge for blankets, bullets
BimmerFreak replied to a topic in General Chat
Private calling home: "yeah mom, we dont have bullets, we are under constant attack here at "FOB Boredom" and I had to make a bed out of used toliet paper and old tea bags from the chow hall" Mom: " OMG! My poor baby is being forced to fight Evil Doers with nothing but a spork and bad breath! I have to call every newspaper in the free world and explain how hard it is over there!" Reality check: We have been in direct combat since 16 Sept 2001 (give or take a few days, depending on what units we are talking about) and have been conducting Stab-Ops long enough that kinks in the Log Pack are very rare. Now almost 9 years later, I can tell you that most Privates that deploy to Camp Cupcake (or any other FOB) have plenty of ammo, plenty of blankets, and plenty of time to play Xbox. -

This is correct. They can transfer tax free 1 time to an heir, or you can sell them (the heir or with the help of a SOT) -
STOLEN GUN ALERT: Springfield Champion SS with Bobtail
BimmerFreak replied to BimmerFreak's topic in General Chat
Hero-Gear has over 7500 square feet under roof. While we have a very sophisticated alarm system which includes LOT AND LOTS of cameras all feeding to a DVR, it is impossible to have every single angle and view under surveillance at all times. It is even harder to combat theft when the item stolen is removed from my personal office. -
STOLEN GUN ALERT: Springfield Champion SS with Bobtail
BimmerFreak replied to BimmerFreak's topic in General Chat
The sad thing is, we pretty much KNOW who stole the gun. They had been a trusted friend of the shop for four years, which is how they managed to get into my office unattended and steal the gun. -
STOLEN GUN ALERT The following gun was stolen from Hero-Gear: Springfield Champion 1911 Stainless Steel Bobtail Serial Number: N339591 This gun was stolen out of the owners office, and we suspect it was stolen by someone that knew the Hero-Gear staff very well. This is very disappointing. I am asking all TGO members to be on the lookout for this gun. Its a unique gun, so it should be easy to spot at gunshows, shops, etc. No questions asked if the gun is returned. If the gun is not returned, and we catch the thief, we WILL push for felony charges.

I am getting ready to switch phones, and I was wondering if anyone had experience with the Droid X? Background: I carry two phones: Blackberry Tour- Primary business/email device, phone iPhone 3G- Business device for my other business, media toy What I like: Blackberry- The email support (pop3) is great for my needs iPhone- The apps, media support What i hate: Blackberry- No cool apps or other "fun" features. iPhone- I live in an area without 3G support. I absolutely HATE the data coverage, and I am always in Extended Area mode except for when I travel to a metro area. My Plan: The plan is to utilize the Droid X in place of my Blackberry as a primary phone, email device, and app platform. I also plan to dump the iPhone for a good old fashioned (non-smart) phone with no data support. So the question I have is; After years and years of Blackberry phones, am I going to be happy with this change? Is anyone currently using the Droid X? If so, reviews? Thanks in advance!

No. I was also not wearing my 5 point seat harness. Was I a complete retard? yep! I am literally luck to be alive? yep! Will I ever drive that thing again without my harness on? NOPE!

I have one in stock for sale. We purchased it from Alan himself when he was associated with Yankee Hill. I believe our price for the COMPLETE rifle (its an SBR) is only 1700.00 Either way, feel free to come by and put your hands on it, and decide if you want to go this route. Added: Damn Kurt, I didnt even realize that you were the one posting the question. You have first dibs on this, but its not going to last long once I post it up for sale. -
You sir, are a no-go. You WILL NOT be approved for a FFL if you let the ATF Inspector know during the site interview that this is the reason for your wanting an FFL.

No. Those are specific to my store. The stickers I am thinking about doing are just the circle.

yeah, I need to work on getting a hi-res image of one of our 1911s to put on there. And yes, it WILL be Condition 1
-
I thought it had been legal (and encouraged) in the Navy for years.... (I realize this picture is of Navy SEALs, but its hard to distinguish their pictures from other gay Sailor pictures...)

Thanks for the feedback. A few changes I would make before offering it to other business owners: 1. The size would be ~ 8" in diameter 2. Add a small website (WWW.TNHCP.COM) at the bottom which would be an information portal on how to obtain your TN HCP, useful info regarding the TN HCP, do's and don'ts, carry tips and advice, and other pro carry reference sites. Estimated cost/requested donation would be 5 bucks per sticker. Any money received would go towards supporting TNHCP.COM and the cost of the stickers.

We had this graphics made up for the front door at Hero-Gear. I was thinking about having some made and offering them to business owners that want to make their position clear on HCP. I would ask for a donation of some sort to cover the cost of producing and shipping them, but im not really looking at these being a "profit center" for us. Thoughts?

We have Griffin (actually Hearing Protection LLC) cans in stock. The owners are two bothers, both 11Bs with a couple tours in Iraq. Good guys. (I believe) they are blowing their older design cans out at crackhead prices because they changed the baffle stack design and a few other features. If you want put hands on their products, we have their new QD .22 cans, and examples of both original 5.56 and 7.62 cans

Those are all strong selling points to me as a buyer... (but then, im a 1911 guy )

But the OP is correct; to the average, non "gun enthusiast", looking for a handgun, there is usually zero brand recognition in the CZ name. EVERYONE has heard of Glock in these parts.....CZ? not so much.
