[QUOTE=Skullivan21;38895079]IMO, he revolutionized warfare by going after production capability and not just manpower, I mean the Civil War in general is a testing bed for things like Trench Warfare. And I think Sherman is like our Rommel, or Patton to be more politically correct, in that he kinda did something not many Generals thought of doing at the time.[/QUOTE]
I'd prefer you compare him to Rommel, not a copycat that beats wounded soldiers and calls them cowards.

The weirdest thing about WW2 to me, is how all the high ranking UK and US commanders were fucking insane.
I am also a Churchill fan...
Well Monty was just a fucking dunkass
[QUOTE=Skullivan21;38895357]I am also a Churchill fan...[/QUOTE]
I'm a fan of Churchill too. Doesn't change the fact that he was fucking insane.
McArthur just wanted his picture in the paper, even if it meant letting his armies die capturing strategically useless islands.
anyways, what online stores are left that have cheap .223 or 7.62x39 left?
[QUOTE=felix the cat;38895362]Well Monty was just a fucking dunkass[/QUOTE]
Yeah. I mean seriously. Why would you do an airborne invasion and rely on groundforces? That doesn't even make sense and was one of the main reasons why it failed.

Insane is good though... right?

Now talk about US. Navy Admirals in WW2 and you're talking of Gods.
Who's fucking idea was it to give Vietnam back to France? It caused both the vietnam wars

Uhm. Insane being good is debatable. I'm glad he got fired, he wanted to fucking invade Russia when they had the mightiest military on the fucking planet, and even the Allied forces couldn't match it.
We were using tanks that could barely beat Panthers, when the USSR had mass produced an MBT before we even had our design for one finished.

All of his ideas weren't good, I'll admit that. But he was a strong leader and he certainly helped keep Britain going even though the Germans were on their front porch.
Churchill was a warmongering lunatic
And he also caused WW2. He pressured Edward to leave the throne.
Wait no my mistake, he didn't do that. He wasnt PM at the time.
okay so I was going to build my own AR-15, but I'm still kinda broke. What parts do I need to buy right now before the ban gets instated and I can't buy them anymore?

You can't already buy them man.
They're fucking sold out everywhere, or for sale at a hugely inflated price.
awww sheet. you're completely right, fuck. Good thing I still have my AK
[QUOTE=EagleEye;38895776]awww sheet. you're completely right, fuck. Good thing I still have my AK[/QUOTE]
I have a converted Saiga in AK format (with a rail system) and my sister has an AR-15. Glad we get to keep these. :smile:
This inflation is ridiculous, weren't [URL="http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/product/MAG-085"]these [/URL]20$ 2 weeks ago?
Doesn't look like aimsurplus is raising their prices yet, then again they're already sold out on like all of their Ar-15 mags.
Holy fuck you guys are sensationalist, way to waste 150 posts with nonsense.
That Feinstein cunt is a blatant moron and just because her website says a bunch of dumb shit doesn't mean it will pass republican dominated congress
I'm going to go count and see how many rounds of 7.62x39 I have left. From what I remember, I needed to get more.
[editline]19th December, 2012[/editline]
Alright, I've still got a couple of hundred rounds. I should probably stock up at some point.

Except we have at least 3 Republicans who would gladly vote for it.
And if Mccain votes for it, others will follow.
Oh god, what are we coming to?
You can call me Kirk. James T. Kirk.
McCain's a fucking retard when it comes to actual politics, so I won't be surprised we get a whole new AWB.
My 9's a solid 10.
I'm still at a 2
I've elevated to a 2.5
[QUOTE=Trunk Monkay;38896030]I'm still at a 2[/QUOTE]

Something or other. :v:
[editline]19th December 2012[/editline]
I guess I'm anywhere from 2-8. It keeps floating around. It goes up when I see something bad, and it goes down when (if) I see something reassuring.
It usually goes down whenever I talk with my dad about it.
The place I used to buy ammo from was called USA ammo, they originally sold around $9 for a box of 50 9mm rounds. They are up to $16 a box.
[editline]19th December 2012[/editline]
And another place was Collins Cartridge Company out in conroe, but they don't have a site anymore.
I am kind of glad none of the stuff I want has gone up yet :v:
I fucking hate to admit it, but I just had a precautionary buy. Ordered four Mec-Gar 18-round 226 mags. I only have the three 15-round mags it came with. I wish I had extra money to buy more, but I just don't due to Christmas. I have plenty of mags for all of my other guns at the moment, but the 226 is fairly new to my collection, so I have held off buying mags for it up until this point.
On top of it all, Midway was the only place I found that had them in stock, and they are limiting purchases to two per order. Had to get my sister to buy two of them.
