I see this article as nothing but dishonouring the dead and spitting on his sacafrice and actions.  My old friend died with honour, he died a warriors death.  As far as I am concerned this article is blasphemous to the character and memory of Cpl. Anthony Boneca

Thanks guys. I'll be giving R. Nichols a call.  I'll be sure to post in case I can find them here, (Canada).

I was fortunate enough to personally know 'T-Bone', we both belonged to the same regiment and went through the same BMQ and were section mates.  I'll be remembering his great sense of humour, how out-spoken he was and his sense of esprit de corp.  RIP buddy :cdn:

Well, I'm looking at getting a new pair of boots and have narrowed down the choices.  One choice being the Bates M-6 boot.  However, where I am, no one sells them.  Does anyone know of a Canadian distributor, store or website that sells them?  I would rather stay with a Canadian source for...

Well, thanks for the lingo lesson, pops. ;)  I take it we're using pet names, right?  There's no need to make it personal, I was only kidding.. As for the tantrums...  I'm still throwing them.  :D  

Yet, you're still calling it a silencer.. :P

Is this fact?  How can this conclusion be drawn?  Did this bodyguard say this is what happened to him? Para, I don't mean to be a questioning dick, but can you please provide some answers?

Hollywood also has its share of examples of where an individual incurs an injury and continues on with little ill effect all the while still making one liners.  In reality, that same injury would incapacitate the same individual.  Why aren't we becoming programmed to believe this? 

BUMP Does anyone have a line on or know where to get Hatch gloves for a decent price, specifically the Street Guard series.  I want the ones with the X11 liner but all the sites (Canadian) that I've seen they're all about 80 bucks and with tax and shipping... well I'm sure you get the point. ...

While both the 6.8mm and Mk 262 options are not foreseeable at this time, is a 7.62mm DM rifle anymore realistic?  Even if a DM rifle if put forth, only that shooter's lethality is increased, leaving their teammates still using 5.56mm.  That's to say that the DM is equipped with a 7.62mm weapon...

Gotcha'  ;) There isn't an easy answer, the choices all have advantages and disadvantages over each other.  Perhaps the easiest answer to say is 'shot placement.'  However, this is also the answer which is the most difficult to attain.  It's easy enough to say make an upper torso/head shot, but...

What would you prefer? 6.8mm SPC would only require an upper receiver and magazine switch while using the current lower receivers.  Obviously, a new personal weapon would have to be bought if switching to 7.62mm, but I don't believe that is what you're implying.  What was your idea? Unless a...

Both A plate carrier can be a stand alone system designed to hold just ballistic plates and can be worn on its on or over soft armour, ie Eagle plate carrier, SoTech Callahan.  Or A plate carrier may be incorporated with a soft armour carrier which carriers both, ie RAV, CIRAS. Look in the...

The H&K brand and the USP models are readily available and quite common.  There is a civillian version of the mk.23 which is available, however, I've never seen one.  For the price, you could get a nice, higher end 1911 or wait for the H&K 45 which was recently previewed in the Shotgun News.

If anyone is wanting a Glock 19 or other Glock compact, which are 'verbotten in Kanada' :), Questar International has them with extended barrels of 106mm or longer.  Although the extra $300 bucks may not outweigh the slightly better ergonomics (for some shooters) of the 19 over the 17...

Bump Any new information or updates on this?

All from shooting from a helicopter, into a moving car (of the opposite direction), raining, in the dark, with gail force winds, and with an unsupported, off-hand shot... :o

Like any weapon or fighting skill set, it's a tool.  It's mindset and the willingness to use those skills which matter.  Sadly, most martial arts schools are teaching crap and very little, if any, valid self defence skills for the environment and culture we live in.  Glad you had a good had a...
