If a nametape and rank epaulet compromise your camouflage, you're doing it wrong.  Exactly.  End of story.  I personally have trouble distinguishing ranks at times, even when standing talking to someone.  Depending on the condition of the epaulet and the particular pattern on it, MCpl and Sgt...

This is making the rounds on Facebook.  I don't know the validity of it: And his Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/sean.goode.73

Fair enough, however I'm inclined to think the money spent on the CTS ruck project as a whole could have easily covered the cost of an off the shelf Arc'teryx buy.

What gen of the XCR is it?  Does it have the skeleton style buttstock?  If so, an upgrade to an AR style butt (with an adapter kit) is a popular upgrade for the XCR.  What type of mags does he have?  PMAGS or Tapcos seem to run well and 10 rnd LARS are good to have around.  Sling?  Get him a...

Buy a SR22? ;D Seriously though, I beleive most problems are due to crap mags.  try a diffrent mag. I cheaped out and bought the tactical mossy too and regret it everytime I pick it up.  Airsoft guns at Canadian Tire feel better built.  On the other hand, the Promag chassis kits I've felt feel...

For those interested in the KRISS, I'd consider a less expensive, non-res, pistol calibre carbine, such as the JR carbine which has ARish ergos: OR For those wanting the perfect gun to throw under the seat of the truck:

There is a type of 25rnd 10-22 mag (that is .22LR) that is prohibited simply because it was once advertised as fitting in a type of .22 pistol.  .22LR long guns have no magazine capacity limits but because this magazine was advertised for also fitting a pistol it is verboten... and the mag does...

I already see one major fault..... With no external headlight pods, there's nowhere to rest the 25 barrel once removed from the extension.

Anyone have pictures other than the one released here: Just curious to see it....

Yeah, you can make out some details of some COPs and what not, but places like Sper and MSG are completely obscured.  Looks like they used old pre-war imagery as you can see no defensive infrastructure or anything.  I would have to imagine, somebody had a say in that.

You mean to say unseating an insurgency is not quick, clean business?  Who could have ever forsaw this?

Yep.  I constantly have to remind soldiers just how lucky they are to be making $50K+ to work out and shoot guns, many with barely a high school education.  The sense of entitlement makes me sick. On the other hand, yep, many, many people having trouble being interested now that the prospect of...

I should've adde there was a certain degree of jest with the comment. Not a dishonour but some see it as just well, lame, I guess?

The medal was sent to my new unit.  It followed me here.  The use of the term "blading" was meant to infer they did me a disservice by nominating me and that I wasn't able to escape being awarded it by being posted. Hence why i said that there are a fair number of people who regard this medal...

I had the news broken to me that my "(former) unit bladed me" and a QJDM had showed up in the mail with my name on it.  Take it or leave it, but that is pretty much how the medal is perceived by many members. When word got around of  the new nominations a lot of people said "PLEASE, don't let...

I hardly think those two qualify as the "new low" by any stretch of the imagination.  They both have been very active in the Ottawa community for years and I think are deserving.  Should everyone with any sort of political or media ties of any sort reject the medal, which in most cases is in...

Seems the CF came across another 5000 QDJMs and are looking for nominations (again).

Thankfully TF 1-10 avoided that by going to Fort Irwin.  Although it was for 2 months..... It might have been costly but I'm happy to have missed ever going to Wainwright at this point in my career.

Funny, I've noticed no real appreciable difference, in both breathability and sizing, and I've been wearing the "new" style for over a year now. I have a handful of the tan eyelets as my tans started losing them (stopped at one, on one boot, quit wearing them after that).  You could always...
