[quote name="RED333" post="1065226" timestamp="1384741002"] Paint what ya got, meat tenderizer and go to work. Small link chain is next, them drag on some gravel and your are done.[/quote] Im really considering throwing it in the bed of the truck with some gravel and hauling ass down some of these logging roads. I wish I had pics of some of the ones I saw while I was in the Marines, some of the ones the MARSOC guys had were painted. I like the used look, but never thought about faking it until I started working with a shop and meet out theres a whole segment of people who want stuff to look "tacticool" or operator just for the heck of it. I always thought of it as being battle scars that were earned. But if it makes for a good disply piece, so be it. Thanks for l the help so far guys Tapatalk ate my spelling.

I'm trying to find pictures of camouflaged guns that have seen lots of use and abuse for a project. Stuff that shows the wear through and scratches. Ive done some google searching, but figured some of you guys might already have some pics or a link to a thread on this or another forum. Thanjs guys Tapatalk ate my spelling.

Nice handgun ain't it. Did you see it at the last knoxville gunshow? If so you must have looked me right in the mouth. All their prices include tax and tbi, so the price on the sticker is otd. And they normally have a little room on some of their guns. Tapatalk ate my spelling.

I have some Marine friends in different cities, namely oceanside, who have started doing stuff trying to tempt this. Walking down an ally "alone" with a group of poor inner city youths coming the other way, being in the wrong stores with the types of teenagers who play these games. The difference is, they have 4 or 5 more Marines around the corner, and have every intention of kicking the #### out of some dumbasses. Not saying I condone it, and their command will be pissed when they find out. But Id love to see it when it happens. Tapatalk ate my spelling.

Never used a work sharp. I use a 1 x 30 belt grinder from harbor freight on all my customs after forging them, as well as sharpening all my pocket knives and fixed blades on it. Buy a few belts in different grits from 120 to 800, add a leather strop belt with stropping compound. You can make a butter knife shave in 10 minutes. Tapatalk ate my spelling.

Gifts arent extorted in my family. We buy if we can afford it, and if we can't oh well. Theres nothing that says we have to buy anything. We started sending list to each other so that people actually got stuff they needed or wanted. Pretty sure we are one of the most self sufficent families on this board, so its definitely not about relying on someone else lol. Tapatalk ate my spelling.

Wow, she is a complete dumbass. Of course, what do you expect. I haven't been in a McDonald's in years. The food sucks, the people working there are usually rude and ignorant, and they tend to be nasty. If I was him I would have just left, and gave the office a call. Its not a big deal to most vets. I don't expect or feel like I deserve any free shit for doing what I felt I needed to do. But I would definitely call the office to let them know they had an idiot on their hands. Its not a restaurant problem, its an employee problem. Lumping all Mcd's together because of her is just as bad as lumping all gun owners together because of one person.

I use an ILBE pack for the survival classes I'm pulling instructor duty on, and as my get home bag. I can throw my AR, chest rig, and clothes in one of my spare contractor bags, tie them to my ILBE and float across using that method. Works great to keep everything dry, and by stripping, you have dry clothes for the whole hike. If your not doing this, you need to look into it. Basically just stick an open contractor bag in your get home bag, then pack everything inside it. Tie off tightly, and instant floatation device.

I actually carry a setup like this in the truck. I have a get home bag, a 1911, and an AR with a 7 mag combat load. An AR is modular, light and easy to learn on. Mine is 5.56 and is currently and m4 style setup. Moving fast and light is gonna be favorable, and ammo is much lighter than .308, plus the gun is light and fast. Tapatalk ate my spelling.

They better hope that when I get hit, I go down and stay down. Otherwise somebody is gonna have a really, really bad day. And all I can say is good luck. Ive been punched in the head and face more than I care to think about, and so far Ive never actually been knocked out. Maybe they will try me and it'll be the same pricks who broke in my truck a few weeks back. My sledge hammer could use a workout Tapatalk ate my spelling.

It has to be a failed attempt at a stainless model. We have a GI in the display case at the shop, and John our gunsmith owns and shoots one. Seems on par with the RIA pistols Ive handled, and just a notch or two below my Springfield GI. Not bad little pistols at all, especially for $350 bucks. Havent seen a stainless yet, and will keep this review in mind when we make our next order. Tapatalk ate my spelling.

A Veterans day message from me, and a request from Veterans.

I dont have any pictures of my Grandfather, but he was in the calvary in WW1. I dont know what unit, and the only picture we have is him on his calvary horse candy. We also have his old US calvary holster. I was a Marine for 5 years. CH-46 engine mechanic then crosstrained into aircrew on 46's. Had a great time, 3 MEUs, 2 years in Japan and countless other countries. Tapatalk ate my spelling. -
Happy 238th Birthday Marines!!!! Semper Fi and may our brotherhood have many more to come. "The Marines I have seen around the world have the cleanest bodies, the filthiest minds, the highest morale, and the lowest morals of any group of animals I have ever seen. Thank God for the United States Marine Corps!" Â Eleanor Roosevelt, First Lady of the United States, 1945 Tapatalk ate my spelling.
