Re: Ammo... WHere to buy and what to get

Ranger 3/75 land warrior: Some good online retailers: Aimsurplus.com (good prices on surplus, remanufactured, and wolf/Russian ammo) Wideners.com MidwayUSA.com (very wide selection of ammo, decent prices, and great service) If you're looking for absolute precision (and terminal performance), it's ha...

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 y...

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. Ranger Grumble, Yes, I knew HALO was a total pipe dream. I will make sure to ask around with the Cadre at LDAC if any SCUBA slots are available. What do you think of the CT...

Re: DCLT vs. Airborne school for an ROTC Cadet

Ranger Grumble and Grunt, Thanks for bringing up the risk factor of DCLT - it could not turn out to be beneficial at all. I've been thinking of it in the ideal context, and as you said and I now realize, chances are that won't materialize. To answer your question, I need to best prepare myself to le...

DCLT vs. Airborne school for an ROTC Cadet

Rangers, I'm a contracted MS3 cadet heading to LDAC this summer. I joined ROTC and attended LTC last summer. I want to attend follow on training after LDAC and I'm looking for your advice on which to choose. My main options are: -DCLT: Drill Cadet Leadership Training; following LDAC you attend a 1 w...

Re: FNAR

Ranger Wyld3man,

I'd be really curious to find out what you think of that FNAR after getting it to the range. I've seen quite a few ads for that rifle but haven't heard any unbiased (non-gun rag) end user feedback yet.

Are the mags proprietary?

Re: My "new" AR-15's [lots of pictures/56K warning]

TC204,

I don't use the BDC. I have my own drop table built in MOA and use the reticle based system for hold over (it's my 3 gun rifle, so I'm not putting clicks in on the fly).

I bought the scope used, I need to pick up a 5.56mm knob just so it'll be right.

Re: My "new" AR-15's [lots of pictures/56K warning]

Anyone have any feedback on the Docter(sp?) sights that can be mounted above the ACOG for CQB/close range shooting? BTW, nice looking set-up you got there! Ranger JLTW, Thanks for the compliment on the weapons. I think buddying a Doctor optic to the ACOG is one of the better options for trying to c...

Re: My "new" AR-15's [lots of pictures/56K warning]

I'm curious as to the micro Aimpoint ? I've been so used to the CompM2/M3 that I can't imagine a smaller optic. How do you like and what advantages do you see in it ? Gotta love the LaRue mounts for your hi-power glass !!!! 8) I love the micro. Here's the breakdown on how I feel about it: Pro's: 1....

Re: Replacing the old worn flag………….

Ranger Zonk,

If you're looking for another lower flag to fly, I think this one might, both in its message and its history, might fit the bill:

U.S. Pledges $900 Million in Aid to Gaza

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/29352401/ Secretary of State Clinton (barf) wants to give $900 million to Gaza. I'd say that I hope Congress or the President would shoot this one day, but the way things are going, I'm doubting there is much hope on that front. I mean, fuck, we're financing both sides o...

Like throwing a rabbit to the dogs; found some posers.

Rangers, A thread on a firearms forum that I frequent is outing a few Ranger/Special Forces posers. It's some absolutely jacked up security company (to the point that I question if it's a joke, but evidently it's not) where all the employees are claiming to be Rangers/SF and the like. We have everyt...
