Broken on surly bartenders?😉

61° here but we are bracing for the next round of freezing temps.

That's a big can of whoopass!

It's not illegal. If he seems approachable perhaps let him know his slip is showing as a courtesy, otherwise why bother. Let the situation dictate what you think is best. As an aside, If someone comes out of the bathroom with TP stuck to their shoe, or theid fly is unzipped, do you say...

OK now I have a minute. OSI worked a country wide organized corruption case involving all the on base clubs in Thailand in the early 70's. Goods and services and service workers came mostly from local sources. The clubs on all 7 bases were managed by senior NCO's. The Nak Ling Sua, the Thai...

SOme dsy I will tell you about the Thai Club case I worked on when at Korat in 73.

Forgot about the Ceasar. Working town patrol we got to all the night spots. I had a Thai Police friend who worked the bar strips who ride in our jeep with us. What a blast, hard to believe that was 56 years ago.

I worked Town Patrol for a while before they sent me to Heavy Weapons school, probably bumped into you down at the Lido bar or the Paradise Hotel...it was like the wild west back then, dirt streets and all.

I have a SIG P220 10mm that is one accurate beast, but also a heavy beast to carry. Good news is it soaks up recoil. I hear good things about the SA Ronin 1911 but I don't own one in my lineup

We called those vendors Howard Johnson's. Pad Thai is my favorite!

I was assigned to Udorn RTAFB in 1970, home of the 432nd TRW, that did most of the aerial recon in Southeast Asia during the Vietnam war. Air America was also based there. The wing flew RF4C aircraft. I was astounded to learn they were unarmed. It was a mad dash when the RF 4C's landed to...

Ceracote Gen II was developed to lower the IR and heat signature of small arms. I don't know if color matters other than certain colors reducing daylight visibility.

Agreed! He was a gun guy for sure. I did many protection details in OSI in the 70's. Gen LeMay would show up at various functions. We were briefed that he was always armed with his 1911 and that if anything happened he would probably pull it and get in the fight.

When I attended the Springfield 1911 Armorer course they gave me a TRP Operator to work with. Once you get inside that gun and see the quality you can see the value.

Good for you! I love keeping the old workhorse in the game. I mainly shoot an O/U in skeet, but I have shot straights on the skeet field with my 97, when I could remember to rack it on the doubles!

I tried dressing the part when working undercover in the 70's. I gave up gold chains when they started getting tangled up in my chest hair but still have some bellbottoms in the closet

I Confess I have gone soft in my old age. The cold is keeping me in the house. I have not been out to my range to shoot for 2 weeks. I am saving money on ammo, but what am I going to do if accosted by brigands and freebooters as I wander about? How could I overcome the embarrassment of...

This?

Well done, sir! A gunhand I would ride the river with!
