Misc Firearms Crew XLIV: Buying more guns . . . and we'd run on 2nd & goal

[RThoe]

Strong 4" stock on the far right. Have always been a fan of keeping stocks as short as possible.

When will it be my turn for an ELCAN SpecterDR...

Those are the "new" Army 240Limas. The stock is adjustable.

This is so true. I wanted to get 11b, airborne, and Ranger when I first signed up and eventually wanted to go SF. Now, I'm probably one of the few people that are more than willing to admit that I probably wouldn't have made it through the SF training...hell maybe not even selection. After talking to a few guys through my work who did make it, or who tried and didn't make it, or who got their Ranger tab, it's absolutely no joke. So my guess is that if I had gotten the chance at it all, I would have suffered the same injury I did, only sooner...probably airborne school first real jump and be laying broke in a field. Lol.

But if someone is interested in it, I say give it a shot. I would have at least tried at the time. If it doesn't work out you still will be 11b and get lots of free range time and experience that you wouldn't, you'd get a ton of VA benefits (plus whatever state benefits apply in your state), education, veterans preference for jobs....

One of my best friends in my platoon joined as 18X (minimum six year enlistment) and basic fuked him enough that he completely dropped his 18X contract. This happens to a lot of guys, both with 18X and Option 40. Which says a lot because basic/11X OSUT is nothing compared to SFAS or RASP.

I rushed the color fill and more came off than I wanted. I'll redo it in a few days. I may just do the crayon method.

LOL, what could go wrong?

Damn, what happened to him?

My teacher lady friend is bringing me crayons this morning so I can do that with the honey badger.

[RThoe]

I meant basic was just so hard on him that he had no will to continue through SFAS. No one knows what it will be like going into basic/RASP/SFAS and sometimes you bite off more than you can chew. That was the case for him and the majority of guys who sign on for these SOF contracts.

[taf1968]

Wow . . . what a phenomenal day. Just took the doge for a nice walk. Nearly clear skies, already in the 70's. Bunch of running around to do in a little while.

Mind=blown at people signing up for SOF and quitting because of basic.

Yeah most people definitely think they're capable of more than they really are. I went to high school with a guy that I'm pretty sure went on to do SEAL chit or something on that level though. Kid was going places, not positive but I think him and his brother both ended up at West Point.

[OliverClozov]

Lmao at dude asking $1500 for this on FB without sights/optic. BCM 14.5 w/ 12" C4 rail and PWS comp. Spikes lower.

Highly overrated things:
1.Spikes
2.Matching Billet sets
3.Short Barrels
4.Kimber

that dude spent 400 on a spikes milspec lower, and in turn is trying to justify his asking price because of that.

[OliverClozov]

Yup

I built a top notch gaming pc for $1000. There is no way you should be spending $2000 on a desktop.

Got some of them getting delivered today for the 9C. Waiting for them so I can install the DCAEK at the same time.

[GingerBrah84]

IIRC when I got mine, with that exact same upper, a spikes complete lower, a B5 SOPMOD stock, DD sights, MS2 sling and BCM grip, it came out to about $1,200 brand new. Is he charging the extra $300 for the paint job?? Or is that a premium he's charging because it's a "custom build"

I have no idea. I think the guy is just a potato that thinks he's gonna make a quick buck on a fudd. He's been reposting it for the last 2-3 months at the same price. People keep telling him he's asking way too much and he gets super pissed lol.

[jarryd2018]

I shouldn't find my neighbors ****ty kids in my back yard with the gate locked. Don't they know I'm a gun collector with a drinking problem?
