    McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II - Proof a Brick Can Fly?

    F4 was probably the coolest looking aircraft ever. It looks like it wants to bite you…

    Wow! Glad to hear she is ok.

    Concealed body armor?!:

    If I had to wear it for my job, I would seriously consider getting another job. If you are locked into it for some reason then there are no good alternatives. They are all hot, sweaty and uncomfortable. Good luck with your decisions!

    Concealed body armor?!:

    Any time I’ve needed body armor it has been provided to me by a kindly Uncle. If I thought I really needed it as a civilian I wouldn’t go out to wherever that was…

    Flying the Boeing CH-47 Chinook Helicopter

    Great article on a great airplane. It’s always interesting to read about different airframes.

    Break down of the differences between all the Springfield 1911’s?

    If you have $1500 in the budget I’d look for a used TRP. Not too far from a new one really. Buy once and cry once…you won’t be disappointed in the gun. If you buy a cheap version you are rolling the dice on reliability. Some are fine, some aren’t… If you buy new from Springfield their customer...

    New Springfield Armory Echelon Pistol

    Seems like they took the best of everything and combined them into one gun. The optics interchangeable system is a big winner. On the other hand a plastic gun just doesn’t interest me much.

    Thunderbirds or Blue Angels ?

    Blue Angels by a mile…the thunderbirds show was very tame by comparison. Know in naval aviation as the Thunderchickens. (I could be slightly prejudiced 😜)

    Concealed Carry in a Fanny Pack — Good CCW Idea or Not?

    I used to use one a lot in the 90’s when they were common. Works great when it is really hot outside and you can’t wear jackets or layers of clothing

    A fun day on the water.

    I’ve seen bite dogs in action twice. Not a pretty sight.

    Very interesting series on Netflix now about the 2022 Tour de France. It looked brutal!

    Douglas A-1 Skyraider: Spads and Sandys in Vietnam

    Fantastic aircraft for the mission. In a low threat environment it was the perfect answer for air support because of its loiter time and huge ordnance capability. It took an incredibly brave pilot to fly them in a high threat arena that included 23mm AA. My hat is off to those guys!

    Do you carry a revolver

    Once I was authorized to carry an auto I never touched my revolver again.

    Congratulations. Your planned celebration sounds awfully familiar…

    1911

    Hard to beat a Springfield 1911. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. 1911s aren’t like plastic guns and require parts that fit together well to function correctly. Watch some Larry Vickers YouTubes and see what he says about the 1911. He’s an expert on the subject and not just...

    First Look: Springfield 1911 DS Prodigy 9mm

    I just sent a Springfield back with their return label. As I recall the shipping label was from Springfield and to Springfield, so that qualified as being acceptable to the shippers.

    First Look: Springfield 1911 DS Prodigy 9mm

    After reading about multiple issues like Mgar64’s I decided to bypass all the headaches and got a Staccato. Buy once and cry once I guess.

    new mortgage rules may 1st it will boil your blood

    The market collapsed in 2008 when the concept that everyone should have a house whether they can make the payments or not was first tried. Rep Barney Frank was in charge and testified before Congress just a couple of months before the collapse that everything was just fine…
