yeah, I now really believe your going to China to watch the F1 race.

nudge-nudge, wink-wink

All of us really do have jobs where we wear ties, hook up with the FBI, shoot full-auto weapons and fly around on business.

I graduated with a girl - chem major who went on to the FBI. She wanted forensics but needed to do 2 years of field work. She was assigned to pour through the Waco site aftermath. A shell exploded and took off half her face. To bad, she was a pretty girl.

Todd,
Funny, that doesn't look like a bass guitar!

Might try putting the fingers on your left hand a bit higher and straighter on the forestock. Helps control the muzzle raising if you are on full auto. Try both ways, it really helped with me. Not so bad with the 3 shot option.

Really like the MP-5, only better one was an old HK-93 I used back in the late 70's. It would really reach out and touch someone...

Very good friend of mine flies the airplane for the Prez of the World Bank. Need to ask him if he has made any trips to Gitmo recently at the behest of Pelican Parts...

so I sent the pic to my ex to show to Calvin. I called home, and he was about ready to get off the phone until she showed him the pic. He grabs the phone and says, "Whoa, that's an MP5!"

I had no idea what it was until they told us at the range.

He's 10. I think he's playing too much Battlefield2. Evidently that is one of the weapons you can choose. He also identified the rifle that is in the new Mark Wahlberg film from the picture on the billboards...

Todd, I really think that as a responsible parent you need to do something about that, he's being exposed to harmful influences.

Mark Wahlberg, I mean.

well, I could sue to have the billboards pulled down. If only I knew an attorney...

Look at it this way, I'm saving the country a lot of money that would have been spent training him down the line.

You wore a tie?

You actually own a tie?

Every man needs a tie. Actually four of them, used to tie the ladies to the bed...

Audio recording session for a game?

Seen and used HK G-3s in the desert and would prefer an M-16, then again a DMR is better than both.

You really don’t need to use an exaggerated forward stance w/MP5 in auto/burst. Only a little with the Thompson series. Try a FAL, G 3 or M-14 and you will have your hands full. Missing on burst/auto with sub guns is more a function of training (lack of due to funds, or?) . Full size battle rifles in auto IMHO are just to make noise.
