Knots - learn the Bowline. Non-slip knot in any direction. Perfect for an anchor knot. So many uses, it's not even funny. Prusik knot. Sliding knot, but when tension is on it, it doesn't go anywhere. Perfect for tensioning a section, and if it gets loose, slide it to re-tension. Locks in place due to tension. Overhand knot. Many uses, and you already know this one. Half-Hitch knot (and Double Half-Hitch). Good anchor knot for short duration. Can loosen over time. Round Turn - nothing more than an extra wrap of cord around the tying base. Round Turn with a Half-Hitch is a good security knot, temporarily. Clove Hitch - used in the Old West to tie the horses to a post. Quick knot to tie, medium security, non-slip most of the time. Know those, and you can damn near tie anything up, anytime, in any manner or fashion you so choose. <thumbsup>

Just make sure you wear the brown bag, brother. I'm just sayin'... <lmao>

What exactly was it that he does? Is he Damage Industries? A company rep for them? Or is Damage International Industries something else, a different company? <dontknow>

No, Regular Army isn't issued M4A1s. Regular Army is issued, however, the M4 Carbine.

I'll point it out to you, in a simple manner. Blanket statement by the idiot that wrote the article - Colt was 3-rd burst. FN makes them full auto. I even quoted it. i think it's funny, you telling me what the Army issued. When I was issued the M4A1, in 1995. Based on this statement from you, Fark, I'm not sure YOU know the difference between the two:

The Hello Kitty is DEFINITELY a classy touch, brother... <lmao>

I have a bunch of them, and there are still copies floating around the www - they can still be pulled down. Just search for a specific tech note (by number), and you'll find it. If you can't, I'll search for it and find it somewhere out there. <thumbsup> Most of those tech notes were written by, and are the intellectual property of, Pat Raley, the former Primary Armorer for them... Miss ya, Pat. You should check in once in awhile, brother. :happydrunks:

BWAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA!!! <lmao> Click the link to that reference, on the jamming. Click the word "jamming" - it's a link to an ARF thread from 2010... <laughs> http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_5_49/99382_Why_do_Colt_1911_jam_so_much_for_me_.html "there is a long record of complaints about the Colt gun jamming. " That dumbass author even had his own reference, that he quote, on the differences in the platform. He just didn't even research his own references before writing the article... http://kitup.military.com/2013/02/army-awards-m4m4a1-contract-fn.html

That's GOTTA be the dude in the suit, that was trying to get the construction crew's attention when they were bashing in the alley... <lmao>

I'm thinkin' M72A2. Had a situation when i lived in WA State. Jake was 4 or 5, playing in the back yard. I heard a loud and thunderous roar, a bunch of timber cracking, shook the hell out of the house. Ran out back to yell at Jake, for whatever the hell it was he was doing... He's terrified, and running towards me. And there's a dumptruck sitting in my yard. Rolled off the road, down a small hill, and right in my yard, because the idiot motherfuckin' operator didn't set the parking brake when he jumped out. The dumptruck operator was running down the hill, running for the truck, and I told him to get the fuk off my property He refused, and was trying to start the truck. I quickly retrieved Mr Mossberg, and once again reiterated that he was going to get the fuk off my property, right fucking now, and not touch that dumptruck in any way, shape or form. Never once did I point it at him, but I wanted to buttstroke that as$hole right across the forehead. I called the police, informed them of what they did and what I did, and those a$sholes called their supervisor. Believe it or not, the construction supervisor got there before the police did, and he made the mistake of walking straight on my property and telling me he was moving that truck. He was escorted off my property by Mr Mossberg, also. Without his fucking dumptruck. He tried to tell me I couldn't stop him from taking it. He very quickly understood that he was trespassing on private property, as was his dumptruck. The police arrived and quickly calmed me down. And relieved me of my shotgun. The cop made the mistake of asking me what I would have done if the dumptruck had hit my son, and i answered him honestly. He didn't like my answer. That contruction crew ended up paying me a $hitload of money for a huge pine tree, oak tree and apple tree that their truck destroyed. They had to landscape the hell ouf the hill, to get those deepass dumptruck tracks out if it. I still wanted to kick that dumptruck operators a$s, just because of his negligence.

no you haven't...

MORE THAN 4 YEARS OLD. That takes the fucking cake, right there.

That article is full of bull$hit. This is the first stupid statement I read. The M4 is has the exact same functionality as the M16A2. Safe/Semi/3-Rd Burst. The M4A1 is Safe/Semi/Full Auto. The writer of that article is too fucking stupid to even research that much. What a joke of a "newspiece." M4 went to Regular Army, M4A1 went to SOF Forces, upon weapon introduction. There was talk awhile ago about giving Regular Army some of the SOF upgrades on the weapon platform, primarily the heavy barrel.

We could break a fucking anvil in a sandpit.

Post a pic of the buffer you're using...

He's using 5.56 $hit on a .308 AR...

Don't MAKE me pull out the pics you sent me and Greg, circa 2011...

Sooooo... are you saying you're a Back Biter, now?...

Nope, that was at the Sierra Vista range, when you bastards tried to steal the Kimber Ultra RCP II... :thefinger:

I like that E-Tool on there - if you can't get 'em with the tomahawk, you can sure get 'em with the E-Tool!!! <thumbsup> :banana:

Awesome quote from that last article... <lmao>

Welcome aboard - several guys from West Texas area here, or close. Good to have you. <thumbsup>

Really? They're making that one in plastic now, too? You're talking hammer and trigger and sear, right? The trigger group housing has been plastic for years, but the other pieces were metal, before. I haven't bought one since 2011, also...

PLENTY of space, brother!!! :hethan: Plenty of room, and you wouldn't even have to be on the couch. You'll have your own bedroom - no worries. Pack up and put it in gear... <thumbsup>

I'm not talking about civilian use.
