I don’t care how well armored your vehicle is... You need to get out of it at some point.

[Noumenon]

I now only practice head shots out to 300M

The Appleseed program trains you to make 'em at 500. Just sayin'... www.appleseedinfo.org

I used to have a serious distaste for conspiracy theory...

It's only a conspiracy if they're doing it in secret.

The "2012" version brings "Orville Crocker" and "Curt Behnke" to mind.

Hand-cranked Gatling guns (modern versions included) are legal, powered ones are very much illegal.
Like pretty much the worst federal offense short of capital crimes illegal.

[ctdonath2]

I’m a very forgiving & understanding sort. I’ll even be apologetic for the 1.2B rounds, elaborating on training logistics etc.

There’s no excusing this thing. If they’re not putting these on the border, either there’s a whole lot more threats & attacks being shushed up, or they’re really planning on moving against “bitter clinger” types.

[tomkat]

Still gotta get out to pee, pick up the donuts, etc . . .

20 tons. Not going to move very fast.

John Henry Eden says (In Englishman's Malcolm McDowell voice): Fearless Enclave Soldiers are fortifying themselves against the Brotherhood of Steel.

May G-d Bless America

G-d Bless The Enclave.

Don’t kid yourself and do not listen to the judas goats that tell you there is nothing to worry about. That the ammunition is for training and it is for this and that. These are the same type of individuals that told the Jews in Germany in the ‘30s they had nothing to fear from Hitler rising to power. That ammunition is intended to be used against people like you and me if I am still alive when they decide to move. I am getting long in the toth and won’t be around much longer. I would prepare myself both mentally and physically for this.

[KC_Lion]

Oh, The Military will be fractured and split on the individual soldiers allegiance.

To their state, families, whatever.

So the Military will be so fractured neither side can really use them.

Which is why we need a Civilian Security Force, just as strong, just as well funded.

Such as this one.

[ßuddaßudd]

and they look like ovens too...

[DTogo]

Vulnerable areas are wheel hubs. A disabled vehicle is then open to fire attack with flammable liquids, or shaped charges attached to critical areas. Hide, jack in the box, pop goes the weasel, di di before air support arrives.

Indeed, the rendered useless Tiger tanks in "Kelly's Heroes" and "Saving Pvt Ryan" come to mind.

Using these against civilian mobs to instill fear is easy. Using these against ex-military civilians, organized and thinking tactically, would be a mistake.

[DuncanWaring]

The story a few weeks ago about the USMC “integrating” with police depts from around the USA...

And, as you'll recall, there was at least one guy who was telling us we should be happy about that turn of events.

[Georgia Girl 2]

I’ll be curious to see if there is any change in the progression of DHS after Mitt is elected. I’m not optimistic.

[OB1kNOb]

I believe the ammo order count is up to 1.4 billion rounds now. They ordered another 200 million rounds last week, I believe. (Not that anyone is keeping count. :-) )

[Charles Martel]

Indeed. And one need not be a trained chemist or uber-villain to make thermite. Just need the right motivation.

[OB1kNOb]

The MaxxPro MRAP is built to withstand ballistic arms fire, mine blasts, IEDs, and other emerging threats. Its V-shaped hull helps deflect blasts out and away from the crew and its armoring can be customized to meet any mission requirement...

Are the tires bulletproof? Just wondering........
