  1. So, those of you who added a lower rail to your factory handguard, did you add a polymer or aluminum? Since its a poly hg and I'm a cheap bastard, I'm thinking of running a Magpul poly rail but there's a part of my that thinks poly isn't as 'durable' as the aluminum.

     

    Any experiences or input is appreciated!

    Jesus is a Fake and all his followers Fools.     
    And what kind of religion Eats the body and drinks the blood of it's savior…...
    I'll tell you what religion does that…a SICK one.

     
    Not to get off topic, but I'm a Christian, love God, accepted Jesus as my savior.  I make mistakes, and royally screw up many times.  I'm human.  I take communion.  It's just juice and a cracker, bread, whatever.  Sometimes it's a can of pop and a candy bar.  It was never intended to literally be the blood and flesh of Jesus, nor does it turn into those things in my stomach.  But it represents His death for my sins...because I'm human.  That's my choice though.
    I'm asking and honest question here...  What does eating him have to do with him dying for you?  I've always found this practice very disturbing.  Maybe you can enlighten me.

    I will shoot you a PM Big John explaining it. The concept is simple but the implications are designed to make you think.

    I enjoy thoughtful debates on faith and Christianity...there was a very good one here: http://forum.saiga-12.com/index.php?/topic/92818-new-temple-in-israel/

    Let's move on though and keep this thread on track out of respect for the OP and it's author.

  3. ... Muslim. At least according to Barry. So, because they are extremists and don't follow 'the real laws ' of Islam, he says they aren't Muslim. However, I witnessed those types of individuals that would agree with him are first to point out Christians did 'barbaric, very terrorist-esq things' during the crusades. I sense some bigotry, idiocy and hypocrisy.

     

    Btw I don't believe the crusades were terrible acts of barbarism on innocents, I'm just pointing out those who do are hypocritical in their views if they agree ISIS is not Muslim.

  4. Breaking: Woman Beheaded in London

     

    No word yet as to whether it's a muslim perp or just some crazy.

    Shiieet, I'd like to see some shitbags try to hurt ANY innocent people with a machete while I am around. I know its not a 7.62 but that waste of oxygen would be full of .380. I feel for that poor woman's family. That attack is beyond cowardly. Let's see if this turns out to be another aloha snackbar attack.

  5. the SOF grapevine is a crock of shit.

     

    the first decapitation was a fake.

     

    barry is a fuck stain.

     

    anybody who advanced beyond regular infantry would shut the fuck up and not get their friends killed. rumors send back body bags.

     

    carry on.

    Lemme guess, you have worked at SOCOM or know of individuals working to assemble SOF teams?

     

    No crock of shit here.

     

    It is what it is. Those in Tampa have been asked to build teams by the administration, and well they can't because of a lack of budgeting.

     

    Look this stuff isn't some top secret classified shit, they even write about it in the Early Bird, Army/Navy Times, SOFREP etc. I'm just saying when you read "bolstering special forces" or "a chance to switch MOS and earn your Ranger scrolls!" in any papers/military media, it's because of the administration's push for it. I have no idea of your background or even if you served in any capacity, but that's not exactly earth shattering news that should so hastily be deemed BS. It just may not be known to people who aren't up to date with the current events in the military. I thought I'd share.

  6. Those goat humpers just beheaded another journalist. So through the SOF grapevine I've heard Barry wants to bolster the special warfare communities in all the branches to decapitate the snake while manipulating the Middle East without a real 'presence' there. However there are 2 problems: first is that Barry ol' boy slashed the DoD budget, including spec warfare. Second is, even IF they magically got the funds it takes YEARS to train these modern day Spartans. Barry and his cronies are so far out of touch it's not even funny.

    These are from the 1974/1975 Med Cruise.

     

    I saw the Saratoga up at OCS in Newport, RI. It's a shame they couldn't pull the funds to make it a museum, I think she has already began to be scrapped or will be in the near future booo.gif

     

     

    I last saw her prolly around 1987-ish, while cruising up the Elizabeth river in my john boat here in Norfolk, she was part of the ghost fleet, prolly razor blades now sad.png

     

    Yeah she was a rusted, paint stripped shell of her former self. Anybody want to know why the funds were cut?? I'll give you a hint: sequestration.

     

    Some in office felt social programs were in need of gov't money more than DOD, and the Saratoga restoration was one of the first funds axed. I am just happy I got to see her in person.

     

  8. I have no desire to watch any part of an innocent man get decapitated, fake or not.  It honestly sickens me how desensitized people are to shit like this.  Our children have instant access to this stuff now, God help us all.  smh

     

    Not seeing it, for many, detaches the 'realism' of the event. It does something to you to see it. I have talked to many grunts, real grunts who went to hell and back, and they have ALL agreed that the attitudes of the average Americans can only be influenced by seeing the reality of these terrible situations. There are some, you included, who do not need to see them to get the reality and the gravity of the situations for which they persist. 

     

    But without them, the meaning gets lost.

  9. Ok great. In the mean time looks like I'll pick up one or two of your 8 rounders. The blemished ones, how blemished are they? Like good condition mil surp, with some scratches and dents that just add a little character more than anything, or ones that were seriously blemished that needed the hammer treatment to get them to work?

  10. I have friends in the spec warfare community, and they say the story is true-ish. The mission actually happened, but due to Obama's rules of engagement we let the Iraqis know when and where we are going so when we enter their airspace they aren't 'surprised'. Someone within the Iraqi army gave ISIS the heads up, and when our operators entered the buildings, the hostages including Foley weren't there and had been moved.


    BTW these guys I got the info from are at a position in their military careers that when they say something like that, it's what happened.
