Might be a few dups in these, but who give's a fuck?!?

Guys, this thread needs a boost! Try this link and get to posting some pics from it, it's time this subject pushes the Zimmerman one off the front page! I've even bumped up the number of images that can be posted per post so we can get maximum enjoyment out of this thread! My contribution...

Bwahahahahaha! What a dumbass!

Not bad, but not a lot of options where I am at the moment... 6.5/10

Nice, I've got one as well (probably 95%+) and other than finding four containers of .455 at Cabela's several years ago, I haven't seen any but I haven't really looked either...
-
T-bonez Remind me, is your Webley in .455 or .45? If the former, where do you find ammo for it? Cheers! M2

From Austin. Standard.

Honestly, I can't believe people are actually spending any time arguing about this when the awesome dirndls thread is where the real action is! Maybe that in and of itself says something...

Again, less words, more visual! Even Paris can pull it off (STS)...

I agree that is a more likely scenario..

Doesn't fucking matter, if it is equality they want, then it needs to be across the board...

Even better...video!

I'm not talking money, at least not directly. It makes absolutely no sense to put a gunship squadron at Mildenhall...
-
While it's good, there's many similar great pics! There's nothing sweeter than a hot, chesty German chick in a dirndl!
-
Think about it, the last A-10 squadron in Europe just rolled up their colors; why would Big Blue put a gunship squadron in the UK? That said, dumber things have happened!

What a great idea!

Back to a topic a little more lighter... Yoga vs Alcohol

Nothing has been proven, that is only the claims of one side of the case and not a single one has been substantiated; but you're telling the police are automatically guilty? What ever happened to the judicial system of presumption of innocence? It goes both ways, my friend. Plus, this is a civil suit, not a criminal one; so if this did happen then why wasn't there a criminal investigation into it? The burden of proof in civil court is much lower than in criminal court, and I am suspicious when files are charged in the former and not the latter. If a "crime" has taken place as claimed, then there should be appropriate charges filed; but often people make claims only in attempts of financial gain and not "justice" as claimed. And sorry, but I don't believe "this kind of shit happens way to(o) often" no more than I believe that police officers are just looking for an opportunity to shoot someone as some claim. I know a lot of police officers at numerous levels, and even though a few are jerks I have yet to meet one that seriously had a desire to shoot another human being. It's tantamount to calling those in the military "baby killers"... So instead of reading such bullshit and believing it true, search on one Hood County sheriff's Sgt. Lance McLean, who was buried two days ago after being shot in the head Friday as he answered a disturbance call in a subdivision outside of Granbury that turned out to be a ambush. He was there to prevent his murderer from killing a girl he was accused of sexually assaulting last year, and was killed while intervening . I am sure his wife and two special-needs children would love to hear how corrupt and abusive police officers are...

Tragic, but an understandable and reasonable reaction by the police. First, there was a 911 call of "a drunken man with a gun" by one of the neighbors. Secondly, when police arrived, the individual responded with actions that appeared to be his pointing a weapon at the officers. In response, the officers shot first. Police are trained to respond like that, it's called "action before reaction." He appeared to pose a threat and there is no legal requirement to issue a warning. I understand their grief, but unfortunately the man's death was caused by a series of his own stupid actions and bad luck. Put yourself in the police's position, how would you react?

Add another one destined for the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico... A Savage 64 BTV with a nice BSA 3-9-40 scope with Leupold rings. The bipod didn't come with it, but those are easy to find... Bought it from the same buddy who sold me the stainless Marlin 60 that is resting peacefully with the fishes! Cheers! M2

Well, guess what happened to me this evening... I was buying a Savage 64 BTV target rifle from a buddy of mine, and we agreed to meet at a gas station that's about halfway between where we live and where we've done similar transactions before. He handed me the rifle and I briefly pointed it up at a billboard to check the scope out. Ten minutes later a police car rolled up and the officer got out and asked what was going on. We told him we were conducting a private gun sale, and he said there was a report of someone shooting at the billboard. I explained that I was just checking out the scope and that the rifle was unloaded. I also asked if he wanted to see ID. He replied no, he just had to check out what was really going on, and wished us a good evening and left. No drama, no confrontation, no being belligerent on our part or the officer's. It was a reasonable, respectful encounter that lasted less than 15 seconds. We understood he had to find out what was going on, and there was no reason for us to be hostile as we weren't doing anything wrong, and we were treated respectfully. Were our "rights" being violated by our being asked what was going on? No. Could we have been assholes towards the cop? Sure. Would that have helped resolve matters any? No. Do you think the next individuals with a rifle that the officer encounters will get treated the same way? Probably. Had we been jerks would they? Probably not. Sorry I didn't get video for YouTube, but I would not be surprised that similar occurrences happen 99.69% of the time and never get posted on the Internet. It all boils down to the Golden Rule, treat others like you would like to be treated, and most times that is what will happen. I don't buy into all this police conspiracies that PYB and others claim is a common occurrence. I know not all cops are good at their jobs, but I also know it is a tough profession and in some ways tougher than serving in the military. I am sure PYB will believe all of the above is made up, because people like him don't believe anything except what those voices in their heads are telling them; but I can assure you that it did and I am sure similar encounters occur every day. Unfortunately, it is jackasses like him that cause some cops to be less-than-respectful to others; but I can tell you that the vast majority of police officers I know are honest, hard-working professionals and have my utmost respect. But as the old saying goes, play stupid games, win stupid prizes; which is exactly the kind of games PYB is playing. One day he will win his "stupid" prize, and he'll deserve every inch of it!

I have yet to see ammo on any bases being a deal, you're better off trying online or at gun shows...
