Try simlulating the experiance; have some one randomly jump out and shoot you. try dodging bullets at less than 3 feet when you have no idea they are even coming at you. If you can you have brown eyes, cause your full of BS. Oh and thanks MercTech for the rifle names. And yes AR is a Amrulite product.

SimplyMichael -> RE: US finally Upgrades (10/31/2007 9:50:49 AM)
Then stick to what you know, you have extensive experience with a very narrow range of weapons all of which, due to your training, you have great faith in. Every soldier in every army is taught to have great faith in whatever POS they are handed. However, that narrow range of experience coupled with that almost religious faith in one design undermines greatly any credibility you have regarding providing expert commentary on other weapons.

joanus -> RE: US finally Upgrades (10/31/2007 9:53:22 AM)
saying I put my faith in the XM series your wrong. I perfur the AK over any other rifle. Also I have a wide range of weapon experiance. I can also tell what military outfit a soilder is with by his equipment.

You are confusing the modern "Armalite" company which has no connection other than paper to the original and who doesn't own the rights to the AR15 name.

I dont think your average Civilian can Wulf.

So what's someone with your superior troop identification skills doing in Kentucky playing Jr. Bounty Hunter, aside from collecting scrap metal in the torso, that is? Perhaps a change of 'career' is in order. ~stef

The submariners waltzing throughout the USS Nimitz are probably gonna pshaw that for the most part. Ron

Give me a good old M14 and 500 yards...10 out of 10 in a 3 inch group with peep sights... try that with an AK or M16

SimplyMichael.....You got it brother. Carried my "obsolete" FAL everywhere as a contractor and because I am standing here typing this is testimony to that beloved piece. Matilda my beloved.....I miss you.

quote: ORIGINAL: EPGAH Also, why don't Americans--soldiers AND police--confiscate and use enemy firearms and ammo? Other than the reliability bonus, the sound would be the same as enemy troops, so the enemies couldn't home in on the "different" noise of American weapons...and the possibility of making it LOOK like enemies shot each other, since the dropped shell-casings would presumably be AK-style...Sow confusion among enemies, save money! It makes for logistics/supportability hell, that's why. If you're overrunning scads of enemy every day and stealing their ammo, fine and dandy. Otherwise you've got to provide for them oddballs. And then there's the prospect of being gunned down due to mistaken identity (your fellows hearing an "enemy" gun firing.) thornhappy

Popcorn, anyone?

TPE4life -> RE: US finally Upgrades (10/31/2007 4:36:43 PM)
popcorn?..........oh yes please, and some licorice if you happen to have some, aw darn here comes the tear jerker part of the movie.....

thornhappy -> RE: US finally Upgrades (10/31/2007 4:49:40 PM)
Damn. I missed the tearjerker part! How about some sour gummi bears? Or dried habaneros, for folks who want some spice in their life? That'll bring tears to the eyes of the folks who missed the tearjerker part... thornhappy
