ZAP No boost, no bottle, just my foot on the throttle! Lifetime Members 7,935 Member For: 20y 11m Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 07/02/08 09:29 AM Share Posted 07/02/08 09:29 AM The guy who hosts that show is such a muppet. Typical American culture celebrating a michine that kills people more efficiently than the next. No im not a greeny I do own guns and have a licence just don't see stuff like this to be essential in helping eliminate the worlds skyrocketing murder rate....But as guns go that's is pretty cool.It is a show about military weapons, and the guy is an Ex SEAL.I do not mind the show, I watch each episode, and I do not own nor want firearms.

I mean, you're NASA for crying out loud, you put a man on the moon, you're geniuses! You're the guys that're thinking sh*t up! I'm sure you got a team of men sitting around somewhere right now just thinking sh*t up and somebody backing them up!" - Harry Stamper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a firearm license, just nowhere to store nor the money to buy a rifle. That shotgun is insane; While it would be handy for the military (SEAL's, DELTA, SAS etc) to use it will end up on the black market making the world an even unsafer place. Made an absolute mess of that plywood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TURBOXR I miss her... Donating Members 703 Member For: 20y 3m 25d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 07/02/08 09:58 PM Share Posted 07/02/08 09:58 PM If anybody thinks its not a brilliant tool (in the right hands of course) I suggest you read a book called House to House by David Bellavia. The guys a ex US Army SSG and has been nominated for the Medal of Honour for actions in the sh*tfight that was Fallujia in 2004. People think that close combat is a thing of the past and modern warfare is all about pusing buttons. This bloke went into a house to rescue his section who were ambushed while clearing a building by insurgents that had barracaded themselves in the next room with concrete. His men got out, then he went back in, ended up being pinned down in the house alone by four insurgents who were high on PCP. He got drawn into such a close fight that by the end of it he had to ditch his M4 and beat one of the them to death with the kevlar plate out of the front of his body armour. Now that's a situation when this thing would be a force multiplier.I definatly recomend that book. Its an eye opener on events that are still happening today but have somehow become a short sentance on the 23rd page of the newspapers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But according to the writers it was very true. And I believe him.People who get hit with 25mm HE from a Bradley and still fight medics while they are in two peices are definatly on something that isnt natural adenalin.

In a certain ministry, in a certain country that I had the pleasue to visit a year or so ago, you could go in bombed up to the eyeballs with armour and grenades, carry a shotgun and people moved out of your way.Scotty Edited 08/02/08 11:12 AM by Kimberley Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
