Whats an auther?

 

[ndicki]

A female autist, you should know that. Like Dustin Hoffman (a well known authim), but a girl.

 

[Matt308]

Well done.

Depends on the mission - one hump I had 100lbs of gear, M-16 with 3 or 4 30 round mags, plus the A bag of a 240... I had never been so happy to be ordered to dig a fighting hole in my life...

Is that all? My belt set used to weigh in at some 30lbs, never mind all the other sh*t in my bergen! The only blessing was that we NEVER, EVER had helmets or body armour...

And while I was in training, we used to have to carry our Officers on our backs while they beat us on with riding crops and umbrellas...

 

[ndicki]

Which may explain why my knees and lower back are totally knackered.

 

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

I normally only had to carry my M-60D and my cans of ammo belts about 100m to the aircraft....

 

[Matt308]

I once lived in a shoe box in the middle of the road.

 

[ndicki]

Aye, an' us Dad'ld thrash us t' sleep wi' 'is belt, an' all.

An' tha tells that t' young people these days, an' they'll not believe thee.

I retract my earlier statement (Thompson SMG) and I'll shall instead carry a Steyr AUG A3 with grenade launcher attachment into battle with me

I never liked the M-16 w/ the M203... throws off the whole balance of the weapon...

 

[Desert Fox]

That may be so...but think of the firepower!

 

[Screaming Eagle]

My choice would be:

Pistol : Smith Wesson No. 29 (44 Magnum)

Rifle: M16 with all the goodies

 

[Soundbreaker Welch?]

If you only had one weapon...

I would just bring the most wonderful, the most marvelous poisinous gas. It would kill everybody!

 

[Le Stuka]

Either a bazooka or an MG42 or an M1897 trench shotgun:

 

[Matt308]

Okay if we are going here.

M-14 and Glock 22 in .40. But I do like this new FN...

 

[MacArther]

Why can't they keep their guns 5.7, instead of switching to the lower 5.56?

 

[P38 Pilot]

Wait, just thought of another weapon. What about the G-36? That would be a nice automatic rifle to use in a combat zone.
