People who you’d never believe lived to 100.

That was a pretty good movie. Not intended to be an accurate account, it was still pretty good.
When I was a teenager, I knew a guy who was a Belgian paratrooper in the Congo. The natives were murdering Whites but the troops were killing the Communists who were basically the same thing.
I think one of the first groups to use the Uzi. He also liked the little Browning .32 automatic. Also said they used 9mm in their Webley .38s in an emergency. I have no idea if that will actually work.

Mike Hoare lived by the philosophy that you get more out of life by living dangerously Uh huh...

Maybe once, but the gun will be toast as well as your shooting hand and maybe your face as well.

I read Mad Mike Whore... I thought Bloomberg...
Wishful thinking.
Sorry for the real Mad Mike, but I didn’t know (of) him.

I know. Using chalk. What a wussy! Doesn’t he know one can get more out of life (and a boner) by not using all those artificial crutches??
To: Billthedrill
I wonder if he knew Roland or that son of a bitch Van Owen?

One of the inspirations for Fredrick Forsyth’s “Dogs of War” — great novel, as were many others by Forsyth.
