That bs is fawking incredible...Enemy soldiers?!? These guys need to lay off the drugs...

Some of the tips are not dangerous...but the ones with shotgun shells and ESPECIALLY the neck wire....it's sad how someone can go so utterly insane and do such a thing....

I could only imagine what I would do if I caught somebody setting up that kind of trap...


Jail the tree huggers.

ya a guy down the road did the neck wire one wit barb wire, my bro found it and just cut it down, thats really stupid, and the conservation ppl around here(tree huggers) own a piece of land now far from here that its just full of quad trails, they put cable up about foot off the ground, and at nite its very hard to see, and this was just b4 winter, which didn't help at all, put after ppl kept cuttin it, and the one guy took all the cable and lil posts a few times,lol, they finally gave up

A few years ago I was riding my Honda Fourtrax 350 through a wooded trail at high speed...at the very last minute I see what looked like a black wire tied from tree to tree at neck height...It was too late to maneuver or stop...I thought...Sheet, I'm dead....

I went straight through it....Ended up being what looked like tape from a VHS that had been tied there (dont ask me why)...The tape just snapped..but it jerked my neck pretty bad and left a bruise...

Don't know if it was a joke or a stupid treehugger...but that's all I've seen of them...

You can join the Army Reserves at 16 to begin training and the such...And regular force is 18 with high school diploma....

They don't just swear us in and give us guns you know...Basic training is hell on earth x2 (Field exercises in the woods, and swamps with no officers, with lighting flares going off in the sky, some trip mines on trees that trip off flares, as in to show you you'd be dead if it was real....WE also had to dig trenches and one person had to stay awake and guard the troop...sleeping on tree stumps...And you are given a map and have to navigate the woods to a specific point...For 5 days...eating rations and drinking water...,no real sleeping, not for the pussies).

Then we learn the C7A1 (Canadian version of M16/M4A1, except it has a mounted scope) inside out...Then we spend a few days at the range practicing burst firing and firing positions... Then we learn to use, deploy and clean the , C6 (heavy machine gun) and C9 (light machinegun)...Also the Carl Gustavand we learn to throw and use live grenades...

After basic is complete...we graduate and get a formal parade thing...then we did the Twin 35mm course...Which is a double-barrel anti-aircraft gun...

I'm qualified to fire, although I never will...

I currently don't have a tasking...so I work at a gas station until they find me a tasking or course [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img].

Next year, my rank will be Bombardier (funny aint it?). I'm a private right now.

Tyre,

I think that gun looks cool, but there is one thing which would scare me about using it the fact they list a 'laser pointer' not a laser sight or scope. I dunno if it's just a difference in language (like in the UK; EVERYTHING that is not a car is a VAN, and that is it, just cars and vans, no trucks or anything - duh!) but around here a laser pointer is just a small laser device made to point at a chalkboard or something, certainly not for using with a gun.
