    I do this as a demonstration for every new shooter I take to the range.  They remember it.

    i like that idea - keeps folks from putting their hands in harms way 

     

    Yep, I do it as part of my pistol class (the NRA allows us to add to, but not take away, from their approved lesson plans).

    I’m starting to think that’s what they want . Driving all the people who care and want to do a good job out. So they can hire people that will do what they’re told without question. It sure seems chaos and civil unrest is their goal 

    Starting to think?????

    At the rate we're going, it's going to get difficult to get anyone to want to be a cop. Even the politicians treat them like crap. Sucks

     

    Going to?  Have you been paying attention?

  4. For basic training, it depends on the branch of service.  In the Army, addressing a noncommissioned officer (such as a Drill Sergeant) as "sir" is a HUUUUUGE faux pas that will earn you scorn and hours of unscheduled physical fitness training.  In Army boot camp, the correct way to address a Drill Sergeant is, "Yes, Drill Sergeant!" or "No, Drill Sergeant!"  

     

    I know the Marines do the bit you're talking about.  I don't know about the other branches.  I would hazard a guess that the Air Force replies, "Sure, Bob."

    May be an image of blueprint and text that says 'How Does Microstamping Technology Work? It doesn It doesn doesn' doesn 375-76834 It doesn't because you can just use revolver It doesn t firing pin Primer It doesn' work at all because you can file off the tip of the firing pin ////// It doesn work at all because you can replace the firing pin. It doesn' t because you could collect your casings It doesn work at all because you can use stolen firearm'

     

    I beg to differ.  The databases of microstamping technology that have been tested in Canada and the US have contributed greatly to crime fighting.  To date, they have solved a grand total of ZERO crimes!  You don't have to modify anything; the normal wear changes all the factory imprints.

    Slaves in Egypt had income? 

     

    Yes.  They owned and operated their own farms and businesses.  Their slave labor was not full-time, because Pharaoh didn't want to have to feed and support them.

    I don't know if that's a staged picture or a real picture or what.

     

    But I thought the US military had rules against having visible ink. That large tattoo on the back of the Marines wrist??

     

    Tattoo regulations have changed significantly.  Each service is different, but in the army the only things that are prohibited are neck and face tattoos, and anything involving racism, etc.  Sometimes if we do a formation run, it looks like I'm being chased by a motorcycle gang.

  8. Earlier in this thread is a post about how our German Shepherd died; he was a retired Military Working Dog.  That was over a year ago, probably closer to two.  This thread has been up for so long I've quite forgotten about it, although I scroll past it every time I'm on the board.

     

    Anyway, the day after Thanksgiving, we picked up our new girl.
