Jim I missed the spigot, the ones I remember were dumped straight from the mouth...

Having grown up in dairy country, it looks like the standard 10 gallon cans that farmers brought their milk to the local co-op in...

Good thing I'm not in charge of the drone program! They'd all have a proximity switch that triggers electronic jamming at 200 yards and 10# of enclosed C4 at 25 yards.

No, I didn't even know this type of chamber existed. What would be the purpose? Obviously, the mfg'ing expense would be much higher so I must assume some type of benefit...

Bet the spent brass looks ... interesting!

Not having a military background (and I did - not- stay at a Holiday Inn last night), I'd think shells like these (155 mm?) would be full fused and ready to go...

Yes, it most certainly did. KK is one of my favorite writers/singers, although it seems most incongruous...

I bought a Boyd's stock for my early Plainfield M-1 Carbine, it required some epoxy filling at the nose for the bayo clamp to actually clamp, but it's a really nice piece of wood. Of course, YMMV......

Forty five or so years ago, I worked with a WWII Navy vet that had 5 US ships shot out from under him. :bow: And he was there to tell the stories if I hadn't been so young and ignorant!

Ron, if I ever decide to travel to AU I know who I'll be looking up, you have some awesomely cool toys/hobbies! Reminds me of me a loooong time ago...

Sarco shows 1# boxes of the little 25mm ones listed for $24.95. When I was a little guy, 12 or so, and US involvement in Vietnam was just getting ramped up, our local county fair had an Army (?)...

Wow, flying bananas! Never seen those choppers before, had to look them up: Piasecki H-21 Workhorse / Shawnee.

Seeing this thread makes me want to get back into modeling! I've been thinking about boats, being in SETX between the Gulf of Mexico, the Intercoastal Canal, and several rivers. Something that can be...

Thank God for those who make the rest of us free! :beerchug:

This makes me think, when I was a pup growing up in upstate NY, I would be "coaxed" awake around 5 am to shovel out a 12 x 150 foot...

He looks as out of place as I'd feel in that line up, for sure!

Russ

Brings to mind: "Hold my beer and watch this!" :madsmile:

Re-upped, thanks for all you do Doug!

Ah yes, low-hanging fruit. Much less work to point the finger at millions than it is to single out the few bad apples.

AFAIK, oxalic acid (wood bleach) can only take wood back to it's natural state (before oiling). If that's not light enough, I'd guess you're out of luck. I cannot recall any treatment to "lighten"...

Those cases look like someone used them to "bite down on" while suffering an amputation...

Russ

Wow, that's hitting too close to home. :crying: :crying: :crying:
Prayers for her fam!

Russ

Wonder how it does on solid rock...

Russ

Eye opener! :eek: Man, that's sad! Air shows are not the place for nepotism. :move eek: And the pilots not voicing any concerns is ... disheartening at best.

Russ

I have noooo idea what the film is, maybe cause it looks like him?

Russ

I thought from the beginning, mayhaps a medical issue from the Cobra pilot?
