SIG P220 MAGS, looking for

Does anyone have any that they want to sell? I am also looking for a good aftermarket one that holds 8, I have some pro-mag ones that blow. Anyone have any suggestions? I always like to vet these things before dropping coin.

Re: Para-Ordnance?

I have the Para-Ord SF-45A which is basically a PX1445E with a couple of gee-whiz additions: Tritium night sights, a surefire tac-lite, all match grade components, coyote finish, and my BN Crest, DIV Patch, TF name, and OIF dates. We got it as a package deal. Great price and a great piece of memorab...

Re: Pathfinder

Got a couple of PMs about the study guide for Pathfinder. Give me a minute or two as I am PCSing right now but when I get settled into Bragg remind me and I will get that out. I don't know how big it will be but I'll try to keep it to a medium black and white PDF file. I think Kinko's should be able...

Re: Pathfinder

Finished the field problem late last night. Now its just recovery on THU and graduation on FRI. All in all it was a good school. I knew next to nothing about air assault operations before and now I feel comfortable with a working knowledge of how to plan the technical aspects of them. I would have ...

Re: Introduction - James

4) If you are realllllllly slick, find out what MOS is most needed in the Group of your choice prior to going to Selection. When filling out your wish list, request this MOS in addition to your Group of choice. Note: if you don't wanna be commo, and you are stud enough to know you'll make the cut a...

Re: Introduction - James

If you enter SFAS with a proficiency in a certain language it can influence your group choices. You need to take the DLPT to do that. I don't know what the score is or how an 18x goes about that. I think Robinson gets a bunch of shit wrong in Masters of Chaos. The best book, bar-none, and most curre...

Re: My Workout

I would advise you to check out a local Crossfit gym. Read the principles at http://www.crossfit.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. Don't attempt the complex or olympic lifts without some coaching. Read about the Zone diet or Paleolithic diet. Don't worry about lots of sup...

Re: DCLT vs. Airborne school for an ROTC Cadet

I'd pick: 1) Airborne - face it, if you ain't Airborne, you ain't shit 2) Mountain - Some of the best training I got, a great school, and made Mountain Phase of RS a cakewalk. It may be 'just rucking,' but it's 'just rucking' up huge fucking mountains. It helped me break into a whole new level of P...

Re: DCLT vs. Airborne school for an ROTC Cadet

I wouldn't say you "assume" the role of the PL. I would say you shadow him. You might get to give an OPORDER but you're not going to start an OER support form and sign his hand receipts.

Mind your verbiage as it becomes your intent when talking to subordinates.

Re: DCLT vs. Airborne school for an ROTC Cadet

I never had a cadet when I was a LT nor did I get to do the program. I've seen it around and heard about it. That will give you the most insight into the Army since it actually is FORSCOM and not a TRADOC unit. If you go to CTLT with ABN under your belt at an ABN unit you might get some jumps. If yo...

Re: DCLT vs. Airborne school for an ROTC Cadet

HALO and RANGER aren't going to happen.

I know other CPTs with SCUBA from their ROTC days. 3 or 4 of them actually.

Good luck.

Re: DCLT vs. Airborne school for an ROTC Cadet

For what it is worth: You will get ABN before or after IBOLC. You will not get AASLT or Pathfinder easily. You might use slingloads or do air assaults in theater. I know even less people who have been to mountain warfare school. Don't go anywhere because of a badge. I don't think a cadet has much pl...
