Has anyone else tried these? http://www.advantagetactical.com/ I have a set on my G22, and just love them so far, with about 600 rounds down range. I haven't tried them in low light, as my range closes a half hour before sunset, but I imagine they would be pretty decent as far as non-luminous...

Does anyone know what paint is used on our ammo cans is CARC, or just generic OD rattlecan stuff? Looking to modify one, and I want to ensure I am safe about it, and use  compatible paint.

I've been hearing more and more talk of having the MATS TECH return to the PRes SVC BNs over the past 6 months or so. As a civvie welder who's waited over 3 years for trades training as a VEH TECH, this talk has me very interested. Does anyone here have any further info on this? My CoC supports...

Hi all, I came across a .223/ 5.56 round that I need to ID. It's headstamped with an LC, the numerals 07, and a little circle with a cross in it. So, Lake City, made in 07 (?), unsure on the cross, and the nose of the round is painted yellow. I've been told it's a 'detonator' round with a small...

Hi all, Just curious if anyone knows about a backlog at CFSEME for VEH TECHs. We were told at our unit by an ARCC rep last year that we could be looking at a 3 year wait for QL3, or the redesigned DP1 course. From what I remember, it will be a QL3 this year, and then switching to the new...

I'm going to be interviewing soon for a shore position with the Coast Guard, and was wondering if anyone had any first hand experience how it is to be with the CCG, and also in the reserves. I've heard thin rumours that some other branches of the Federal Government can be tough to deal with in...

Is there another Trident Fury style ex near Victoria this weekend? Airshow nearby? I was buzzed this morning by 4 attack aircraft (got outside just to see them leaving my neighborhood, didn't get a good look, maybe Tornados?) that definitely weren't ours. Then a little while later had something...

Anyone else going? I understand there are two serials being run in Edmonton. I know there are a fair number of us coming from Vancouver Island, but not enough to fill all the spots. Where are the rest of you from?

Dropped a steamer in the gene pool a while back, and today I saw the little bugger for the first time. My wife is about ten weeks along, and we got to see a couple of little legs on the blob, and could hear a very steady - albeit fast - heartbeat. First kid for us, and the first kid from my...

What the hell is in the water down there these days? This brings us to 7 officers shot in that state in the last while now. I wish the officers a speedy recovery, and hope they are able to resume their work in the near future. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/34519771/ns/us_news-crime_and_courts/...

Anyone else find it ironic he calls himself a proud Canadian, and yet his profile picture shows him wearing the Stars and Bars?

I just wanted to give a quick shout out to the Canadian Scottish Pipes and Drums, as they did a fantastic job at the Victoria Symphony Splash tonight. Definitely a highlight during the evening. Especially the show they played afterwards at the Irish Times pub. Well done gang! :piper:

Any other forum members going to be involved this time around? I may be putting the cart before the ox here, as I'm still waiting for my official offer, but here's to optimism right? I intend to take the weekend training, as I'm completely engrossed in my day to day job and the training that...
