    Canada Seeks Lease on Predators/Chinooks

    Operation Anaconda, 2002. "Not A Good Day To Die" is a great read... Very different situation from today, but I bet there are still a few Dishkas HMGs hidden in Taliaban weapon caches...

    Taliban can't be defeated by troops: Layton

    Saw him on Canada AM this morning, babbling on about UN peacekeepers... WTF is he talking about? What peace would they keep? Get in between the Taliban and the ANA? The Taliban and the US?? He is either on butt hash or willfully misrepresenting the situation, hoping that uninformed Canadians...

    Raise your hand if you agree...

    We do, but it must not be up to snuff if the CADPAT jacket (or AF/Navy versions thereof) is required for winter wear... I'm just sayin'  ;)

    Raise your hand if you agree...

    One other thing, if DEU will continue to be the dress of the day for many can we please get a proper overcoat in order to end the CADPAT combat coat/DEU combo... I think that looks far worse than people wearing CADPAT as dress of the day...

    Raise your hand if you agree...

    I would love to see the changes Teddy suggested as well. A functional combat uniform instead of the MC Hammer pants and smock shirt we have now, and a sharp set of DEU in Olive or Khaki with a Sam Browne / stable belt.

    New Rucksack

    I would like to see someone that has used other rucks of similar design (Kifaru EMR, Camelback/MysteryRanch, Arc'teryx, etc) do a review of the new ruck... anyone? Bueller?

    Close Combat Vehicle: Canada to buy another AFV (& keeping LAV III & TLAV)

    IMHO IF Canada purchases a tracked IFV I think it would be a limited buy (probably in numbers equal to the tank purchase) to suppliment the LAV-III and compliment the LEO-2, not to replace the LAV-III entirely.

    "The stuff the army issues is useless" and "no non-issue kit over seas!"

    We did the same on my tour, that's when I decided the issued Boulet boots were junk and bought my own SWAT's.

    Reserve Pension- Merged

    The buyback calculator keeps kicking me off  >:( Same thing for me WRT the top-up contribution (before it was "fixed") a small contribution almost doubled my benefits, hmmm...

    LAV III Mobile Gun System (MGS)

    Been hanging out at Maxwells on Elgin Street again have we?  >:D

    "The stuff the army issues is useless" and "no non-issue kit over seas!"

    On the other hand, how many UCR's are initiated but due to incorrect/incomplete information, procedural confusion or CoC inaction don't make it to the end OPI? Just like many of the CF98's that I've submitted through the years...

    Magpul Masada

    I have been impressed with all the Magpul items I own (rangerplates, 93B stock, PMags) and would love to see this rifle make it to market, since it isn't an AR-15 variant it would be non-restricted in Canada (with a long enough bbl of course), that is IF the state dept would grant an export...

    Navy getting the Sig 225 issued?

    Pistol grip size is related to design as much as calibre though, i.e. single stack mag (1911 or P225) vs double stack (BHP, Glock 17, Sig 226 etc). Perhaps the next-gen issue sidearm will have interchangeable backstraps like the S&W M&P to fit different hand sizes.

    Meindl Boots

    A lot of the european armies use Meindl boots, they're hard to find in north america. All the reviews I have read have been very positive. Try searching Lightfighter.net for some first hand reviews.

    The Great Gun Control Debate

    I can reach my gun safe, open it, and have a firearm loaded and readied in about 5 seconds. Unless my house was being broken into by ninjas I think I'd have a pretty good chance getting it in time ;)

    Infra Red Cadpat Name Tapes?

    I'm sure any enemy using NVGs/TIs will notice the multitude of IFF IR reflective flags, patches and strobes worn by our troops before they notice the small difference between the issued and non-issued CADPAT name tapes  ::)

    Navy getting the Sig 225 issued?

    I have a Utah CCW but they are no longer issuing them to foreigners IIRC. Be advised that you can't bring Chinese made guns into the US. As far as buying Chinese guns? The more gun owners/guns in Canada the better! Damn near everything we buy is made in China anyways. I've got a HP-9 12 ga, ...
