I'd agree with 98. Or, for even a little bit more, you could go with something from BDS Tactical. They cost a little more, and they take a lot more time to ship (They're all handmade). But....they're 100% made in the USA. And their $hit is no joke. It's some tough gear. I've got many bags, packs and vests from them. The stitching and workmanship is second to none. Just don't ever be in a hurry when you order from them.

Welcome aboard.

That's fukin hilarious Hemi! That'll teach them show-offs.

Call it what you want. But YOU still brought me a case of it last December. On ice no less.

Just repeating what I was told by the DHS dude. I could have misheard him, and maybe they were pinging radios or something. Hell, this was a couple years ago, and I'm not sure what I did last week.

Yeah......that sounds like something that Rene and I would do.

Nah. Rene knows ALL about me. After the couple days that we had up at Greg's for his graduation. Hell.....I think that we drank almost all of the beer in the springfield Mass area. FUK! Him and I were even illegally parked DURING Greg's graduation ceremony,

Yeah. I heard about these guys about 10 years ago. They were based in Australia with some offices here in the DC area (to try and sell to the US Military). They were bought out ( a hostile take-over) about 2 or so years ago. I know that because I had bought stock in the company.....and eventually lost my ass in it. But they were always working on some pretty cool weapons technology. That's what drew me to them in the first place. An acquaintance of mine that worked with DHS (he was a former Ranger), had also told me of some pretty impressive engagements that had used their technology also. Long story short, A gunship flying overhead of an engagement area, swinging the guns downward while pinging the dogtags (yes, they have a chip in them) of our boys, and only firing on the enemy combatants. But they were making all kinds of VERY, COOL $HIT also. Try and find some stuff on their Redback system. Using pretty cool. "smart"/"stacked" munitions. And all sorts of other stuff too. They were bought out (taken over) by DefendTex.

Are you kiddin? I'm gonna pick you up on the way. The dickhead as the wheelman, and the waterhead riding shotgun again. We'll have a great time my man. We're a hell of a combination brother................or................we'll get arrested on the way out there.

A new assault vest, a gear bag, and some mag pouches from BDS tactical. I love their $hit.

FUKIN A! Caps are goin to the 2nd round.

If that was the case, we'd be drinking brother.

1-1 late in the 3rd. This has been a tough game. Tight. You got the camera on in my place?

AND........we WON! Less than 2 minutes.

FUK! We're about to go into OT with the Caps and the Leafs in game 5. Been a good series between the two so far. Go CAPS!

Nope. Not biting.

Welcome from Maryland.

That's cool. Where did you finally track one down at? Just out of curiosity?

Finally found one huh?

^^^^^^^^ And a simple thing like that.......is why a young man working for an aerospace company waaayyyyyy back when (at this point) in the 50's, was one helluva fukin engineer. His name was Eugene Stoner.

Nah. I saw it. Just knew that I couldn't avoid it. I can live with it. I've had many different names through the years. Not a problem. Hell......I've killed women and children.....killed everything that walks or crawled at one time or another. And I'm here to kill you little Bill. OH WAIT! That was Clint Eastwood, not me......................................................................or am I just getting that old?

Reminds me of a buddy of mine that works for the Smithsonian Air and Space. He restores aircraft, and proudly says (while laughing) that none of his planes will ever fly.

I can't defend the airlines, but you also have to wonder what all happened to lead up to this guy being dragged (literally) off of the bird. I mean, ok, he denied whatever offer that they made to get off. But between then, and the time that he was looking at 3 cops? What happened in that time span. Also, no matter what, when you've got 3 cops telling you to get the hell off the plane, you should already know that you're losing this battle. You might win the war after the fact, through complaints to the airlines and possibly getting legal involved. BUT, at that moment, it's a done deal. That bird isn't taking off with you on it. So there's no reason to throw a fit and force the cops into doing something that we all know that they'd probably rather not be doing. Like I said. You know that there's more to this, then just what's been seen. There always is. Plus, I've already heard a couple things that are pointing to the idea that this guy is half of a whack-job. Like I said, I can't defend the airlines though. They suck. Just like everybody else in this world. But I also don't fly too often. Hell, the last time I was on a plane, I jumped out at around 14,000 feet. And there was nothing wrong with the plane.

That's why he was known as "the diesel". And no Matt, Ron-bot doesn't really work for me. Just not feeling it. Besides, remember I'm a Trek fan. So Ron-Android would be more fitting. Now something in the non-sleeping, non-eating, beer drinking mutant just might be in order for me.
