thank you for the insight , i did not realize that chaos was going on , as it turned out we did get them back safe - just took longer than any of us would have liked - should have retaliated back then
The main reason we got them back was that we elected a President that HAD the stones to get it done, and they knew enough, (back then anyway), not to try us.

and that would have made me fonder of him , but then i would expect that equipment for a mission like that , as it was the one that carter sent got fouled out as i recall in a dusyt storm or some such - unless that was a smoke screen press release to take politicat and press pressure off , i also recall carter as not being a most favored pres but then that might have only been in my circle of friends and acquaintances ,
in my eyes jimmy carter redeemed himself to a degree after his presidency with his philanthropic efforts , they were admirable
The major problem with that rescue mission was that it was the first big mission since Delta Force was created, and nobody wanted to be left out, and nobody could agree which Service would run the mission. Since too many cooks spoil the broth, the whole mission went to crap. And Carter was a lousy President. Period.

that was kind of him , wonder what promped the inspection ?
I think that somebody may have mentioned something about weapons in the barracks, but nobody ever said so.
But nobody expected what they found.
At the Battalion Formation next day, the Colonel did say that he was proud of our spirit, but we didn't need to go that far. He said that if we DID go, HE would make sure we had all the weapons we needed.

That's because there is no reasoning with fanatical Islamic terrorists....period.
18 minutes ago, watab kid said:i bellieve that as well , have for decades - at least since carter hostage situation ,
I was a Young Marine during that time. When the whole hostage crisis took place, my unit was the Air Alert Force that should have been sent in to deal with it, if Carter had the stones to do so.
We were prepared. We were SO prepared that when the Battalion Commander held a Barracks Inspection, approximately 1/3 of us had personal weapons IN OUR WALL LOCKERS ready to go. Under normal circumstances, having personal weapons in the barracks could send a man to the Brig. I guess the Colonel decided that having a third of the Battalion in the Brig wouldn't look good, so nobody was charged, just told to get the weapons out of the barracks.

That's the Darkstar from "Top Gun Maverick". Is there a real one? maybe. they've been talking about it for decades.
Remember the "Doughnuts on a Rope" pictures? They were calling it Aurora then.

The only problem with that is that it affects the 90 million people there that are for the most part innocent and UNARMED too!

Very tiny amount. And yes, krypton is a gas. Raytheon uses it as a coolant in missile sensors. it's REALLY expensive! The cylinders I used to deliver weighed about 600 pounds, were at 6000 PSI, and cost $7500! My bosses were REALLY glad to get an order towards the end of the month.

Now that I'm retired, I wouldn't mind being called for Jury Duty.

Not trying to be a jackass, but from everything I've heard, FROM Catholics, most Catholic "rules" can be gotten around with a big enough donation.

When my friend Tex and I were out eating, and the waitress would com and ask "Is everything okay?" we'd point at each other and simultaneously answer, "No, he's sitting there." When she asked, "Is there anything else I can do?", we'd point at each other and simultaneously reply, "Could you have that removed?"

I've posted this before, (just back on July 9th), but since we're sharing, I once got off of a Murder trial. It was so high profile that they had all prospective Jurors fill out a 3 or 4 page questionnaire before they ever started actual interviews. One of the questions was about hobbies or groups you were associated with. I answered that I was a member of the NRA, GOA, the Single Action Shooting Society, and a faithful listener of Rush Limbaugh. Never heard back from them.

For what it's worth (which ain't much!) a few nights ago I plopped exhausted into my recliner and turned on the tube (which ain't a tube no more, incidentally). Anyway, when I flipped the channed to Prime, there was the 2025 Superman movie. Having enjoyed Superman since 1955, I naturally tuned in.
The new "Supergirl" movie is even worse. Hollywierd keeps trying to make movies for their mythical "modern" audience, and then wondering why nobody goes to see the movie. They keep wanting to put their "spin" on the story, while not understanding the the Source Material is what people that like it want to see.
So far they've killed Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Marvel, Willow, and now D.C. Probably more that I can't come up with right now.

A word new to me: Bulverism
"Bulverism is a logical fallacy where you assume your opponent’s argument is false, and instead of refuting it, you explain why they believe it based on their motives, identity, or psychological state.
I'm going to get in trouble for THIS!:
Bulverism, see "Democrat".

https://www.ebay.com/str/barsonyholsters Well, here is a link to their ebay page. You can try the "Contact Seller" button and ask questions. I've never dealt with them, so I have no idea what you'll find.
I've looked at their page before, and to ME they look like many other cheap holster makers that make more or less a generic holster that "fits" multiple guns of similar build. Good Luck.

That last season of the show they were basically just phoning it in. WB told them to shut it down to make room for the new DC movie series. Which is a BIG flop.
If that scene hadn't just been a plot hole to reveal Superman's identity, he probably could have turned aside just enough to have the bullet miss him while at the same time deflecting it with his hand enough to not hit the waitress behind him.

I know that this isn't what you want to hear, but they sell on ebay.

Any injury sends the injured into Shock. To combat Shock, you keep the person warm. The injury itself might be best treated by cold on only that specific area.

I think more about sending a loud message to Russia and China about how vulnerable they are.
"The "rightful place" for 90% of their people should be the same."
Smart money says that 90% of their people want the mohammedean warlords and their thugs gone and be able to return to the prosperity of pre-revolution Iran, but without the brutality of the Shaw.
======================
One side effect, which actually may be the main goal, of all of President Trump's foreign advebturism is what a lot of people revile him for. "The whole world hates us! Look at how they are coming together against us!:
EXACTLY! Since the start of the "Pax Americana" after WWII our allies in Europe have leaned heavily on the United States for their military needs. They spent relatively little on it, which allowed them to develop all of their much-praised, government (taxpayer) provided social programs and security nets. Remember last year when several NATO countries were complaining that if they met their NATO obligations they would be forced to raise taxes and/or cut programs? After 80 years sucking at the American teat, they are resisting being weaned onto solid food.
Last week, I think it was, SecState Rubio mentioned closing bases in Europe and bringing 100,000 people home, "If Europe won't let us use them for this, way keep them open?" Something like that. Which I'm sure was met with howls of "You ca8do that! Local economies depend on those bases!" Like in Puerto Rico, when their government banned the US Navy from using a gunnery range. We closed the base because it's only real purpose was a base for our ships who were getting in gunnery practice on that range.
Long range plans within plans within plans. And, unlike professional politicians who can't resist bragging about the details, and showing their cards before the last round is dealt, he keeps his close to his vest. Sure, he makes bombastic statements, and seems full of bluster and BS, but most of those statements, if closely examined, yield almost no information of any value, and often seem to be calculated to confuse and misdirect people.
"Smart money says that 90% of their people want the mohammedan warlords and their thugs gone and be able to return to the prosperity of pre-revolution Iran, but without the brutality of the Shaw."
I'd like to think that you're right. But most of the Muslim world, no matter where they are, (Mandami), looks at the U.S. as "The Great Satan". Even if the Iranian people ARE freed from the Mullas, what makes us think that they will be a friend to us? One of the primary tenets of Islam is to kill the Infidels, which we are.
"Like in Puerto Rico, when their government banned the US Navy from using a gunnery range. We closed the base because it's only real purpose was a base for our ships who were getting in gunnery practice on that range."
The Philippine government did the same thing back in the late '80s. Then they got all butt hurt when we left and took literally everything except the buildings with us.

TAURUS DEPUTY WITH WOLFF SPRING KIT
in SASS Wire Saloon
Posted
How's that Deputy shoot? Taurus first entry to the SAA market, the Gaucho, wasn't very good. All the reviews on YouTube I've seen for the Deputy were positive, but I don't remember anybody here commenting on one.
