It’s all in good fun to make these jokes, but I would point out to those finger-pointing toward Americans over the fact we allow self defense, that just as you look down on the notion of an armed citizenry, we look down on how you have seemingly lost your civilization altogether. When Americans...

Back to the issue, one really nice thing about modern FLIR is that you can actually see footsteps after the fact. I dunno if this tiny unit is capable of this, but I’d love to find out. Imagine you’re a cop chasing a thug down a blind alley and could actually see where he ran. That is an Uber...

Well, Massad Ayoob is the guy who used to teach “blind fighting” back in the 80’s. I would not be surprised to learn he dropped that name since “indexing” is more accurate, but that’s what I was referring to. It’s dicey, and in general a last resort, IMHO. The problem I see with thermal is, it...

Yeah, the jab almost killed me. I had an 11” blood clot lodged in my aorta that had to be dissolved over months, and attempts to put my heart back into sinus rhythm have only lasted a day. So my life is utterly changed. My father also got CHF and died from it a few months ago, and my twin had...

<< Do you feel a lesser man without a gun?>> A serious question deserves a serious answer. I do not own any guns. When I lived in Oregon I was a sporting shooter and big game hunter, but about 30 years ago when I returned to NJ, I sold all my guns. The laws here were not conducive to...

You sound angry. All I can tell you is that with a history of an extremely well-armed citizenry—more guns than gun owners—the kinds of shooting you’re suggesting are exceedingly rare. The cases of thugs in nightclubs firing on others are fewer than the knife attacks in the UK, in a country with...

They don’t give you the ability to see a darkened target. A flashlight will, but this exposes your position. Thermal allows you to see the target without necessarily being seen.

I agree people care less about drug dealers killing each other than they would otherwise, but there is a lot of collateral damage. It’s pretty common for the Cripps or the Bloods to drive by the home of a rival gang member and shoot up the neighborhood, and innocents get hit pretty often. In...

There’s no way to answer the question about selling this technology to those without a police record, because firearms laws are almost always state laws. Hence, there are over 38,000 firearms laws in the US. The feds limit fully automatic weapons, suppressors, etc. The vast majority of...

I just watched a guy park three Ursas in an Asgard by parking them sideways. It really wasn’t difficult and he was able to walk between all the vehicles. This makes me interested in keeping a Nursa inside for the bed, and a pair of MTCs with Dominance 2 scatterguns to deploy against bunkers...

I don’t get why everyone is so pissy about Cabbage Patch! It’s not right! Decades long luvs for. . . What?! Oh. Never mind.

James Gunn confirms Ana De Armas will be the next Wonder Woman. I personally much prefer her to Gal Gadot, whom I never had an objection to. I would make this a positive move for Marvel and Disney.

The various Russian Yaks and US made Airacobras were easy targets. The Airacobra was a good tank buster but too sluggish for dogfighting. All the Russian made fighters were underpowered. So yeah, the Eastern Front was a great place for a German ace to rack up kills.

I’m not certain what country you’re thinking of but most shootings here in the US are on the street, are drug related and are one gang killing people in another gang. Almost all shootings are with unregistered pistols, at night, on public streets. It’s mostly drug dealers killing other drug dealers.

Ironheart Star says the showcasing of “DEI is more important than the story itself”, which seems to explain why everyone is complaining about the poor writing. Disney refuses to learn from its mistakes. View: https://youtu.be/w75I-pedlKE?si=L7l26OgSHAWr9m7j

Ironheart is getting trashed by the critics. Repeated complaints about terrible writing, tedious to sit through (6 episodes), passionless story, and mediocre action sequences. No complaints about the acting, but laments the actors were not given anything to work with. So sad. Marvel was doing...

I much prefer the aesthetics of the Asgard to the Connie. I’m curious what will fit. With a crew of 5 on the ground, do you want an Ursa or a Nursa? Can you also fit a Greycat? They’re more agile. Would you want a Nox or two? They’re faster and more stealthy. How much room you have decides in...

This is a serious revolution in shooting and home defense. . .anyone using a pistol or shotgun. The overwhelming majority of combat encounters in the home happen in the dark, so savvy defense gurus practice “blind fighting” where they point their weapon without use of the sights. Many others put...
