[Long Cut]

Hell, I'm just glad that you, Rokke, and Gunrunner2 showed up to provide some actual knowledge of the topic. There were some here who really had honest questions, and wanted answers and misconceptions corrected.

IMHO, that's one of the values of FR...the experts in most every field that one can call on for answers to questions. That's important to counter the crazies and uninformed mouth-shooters.

A good rifle and a good bullet wins if used by a marksman. Costs $$, cost of doing business. We're not accountants in this business.

Give aviators superior advantage and they'll pay us back by destroying enemy assets and sending them into an irrecoverable flat spin. Splat and Splash.

Air superiority.....Priceless!

(Besides, I felt better knowing that CAP was there to back up our dozen .38s and a couple .45 ACPs.)
