By the way Digger you going to post some pic or are too chicken( i.e ugly) to do it ?

Nice pics Egorka.

[Flammpanzer]

okay, you wanted ugly faces, you`ll get `em.

the right one is, you`ll might guessed it already, in a certain kind of "mood". or shortly: with some more beer intus.... the pic is some 8 years old.

the left one and the middle one are from my service in the bundeswehr from 1994 to 1996.

[Panzerknacker]

Thanks you my incendiary friend.

The mitte picture is the one of a happy man, with so many H & K guns and even a MG 3 :D

By the way is that a UZI in the left?

[Flammpanzer]

yep, correct. it is a uzi (here w/o mag) which the bundeswehr used and still uses, but it is replaced by the MPi-7 from H&K. the uzi is much overrated due to movies, it is quite a cheap piece of unprecise, unsafe crap.

the second from left is a 40mm granatpistole "Grapi". then comes the old warhorse G-3 (7,62mm) shown w/o magazine, which is also replaced by the modern H&K G-36 (now in 5,56mm) and two MG-3s - one is the "Turm-MG/T-MG" from the fully tracked APC "Marder" 1A3, so it looks a bit "naked" - no buttstock etc. the MG on the right has a special device on it`s muzzle to shoot blank cartridges during exercises. to shoot the MG-3 was great, real fun! I liked it much more than the G-3.

I've seen what's under a real Scot's kilt. The only shock is how little there is to be shocked by.

Now, the photo in the link has a history which I won't go into, but mods please note I am NOT posting it and the link comes with this warning, to avoid offending delicate souls.

Good come back Panzer nackers.

You are absolutely right, of course, I do fear that you will find out that I am not handsome, and it'll be a huge revelation to myself if I discover that I am not. I wil be crushed. I'll become terribly disillusioned on account of all of the women, and the odd unfortunate chap, that have been worshiping me, my world will be destroyed. I'll have nothing left in life to have faith in. :(

And it will be your fault!!! :twisted:

However, looking at your pic - no contest!

[Panzerknacker]

Hehehe. Aniway is not a beauty contest, is just to give a face to the men ( and women) behind the keyboards, and get to know each other.By the way RS, no matter how old the pic, a face is a face after all.

Up to the time I first saw a bloke in a kilt, I thought only women wore skirts (apart from the Christian and Marist brothers who attempted to educate me, but they wore full length black dresses, not gay - by which I mean brightly coloured - tartans), so naturally I assumed he was a sheila.

I took the sporran as advertising fertile lushness beneath. It was irresistible. And they say advertising doesn't work!

Imagine my surprise when I found out what was really under there.

Imagine wee Jock's surprise.

Imagine how long I spent in hospital. :D

Hello Gracie, nice to meet you. That is a Utilikilt, The workman model made of canvas.I have a proper Kilt as well, I will post some pics with that one. The Games are always fun to see, we have them in June, and Sept. the June games are a 1 day event, with the sept. being 3 days. I agree about a Fla summer day.

[Gracie]

We got my husband measured for a kilt, but have yet to have it made, he shipped out before I had a chance. I might do that as his big gift for Christmas, LOl which of course iwe never celebrate in December because the military hates family holidays. LOL. It's okay though, I get several extra months to prepare.

Is yours a family specific or just a general tartan? We were offered the choice of Generic because I guess his family tartan isn't real common but we are gonna opt for it anyway.

My proper kilt is not of my Clans,it was just what I could get at the time.A custom tailored Kilt can take 3 months or so to finish, and I didnt have the time. The Two clans in my family are McQueen, and Rose, the Rose is still made commonly, but McQueen is a specialty tartan that would cost extra per yard to produce.When you do order, ask for at least a 14 oz. fabric, as anything lighter will not feel right, nor will the set be of proper size. Mine is in 16 oz. and it drapes and swings just right.

The man we spoke to (Angus Harvey) was at the Bristol Ren faire and apparently that is all he does for a living for like the past 20 years. :) He advised us as well to not go with the very light fabric either. The kilts he showed us were gorgeous and extremely well made so I felt safe in ordering from him. He came highly recommended.

I think you'll do well with Mr. Harvey.Clan Rose, and Clan Kerr are not uncommon even these days, i know a few Kerr folks, all good people, the Roses i've met though have all a taste for the Crathur. (but then dont all good Scots?)

[Gracie]

He had said he could get the Kerr but I guess it wasn't his common stock? I don't know, never asked about the Rose. I actually have Campbell on my father's side but, I think everyone has Campbell, lol.

I find the whole thing about other nationalities and their affection for their pasts and Kilts fascinating.

I remember as a wee lad running about the Glens [actually, running about the streets but it spoils the romanticism] being made to wear a bloody Kilt on every stupid social occassion and wedding. Nowadays youd have to hold a gun to my head to get me into one and I dont even want to own one.

I even cringe when I encounter a Piper in the street as I dont like Pipers except when there are loads of them. I suppose it comes from living here instead of the nostalgia bit. Mind you I dont own a Stetson either and Im sure all you Yanks do!

No, most of us dont go in for stetson type headwear, thats mostly in the Southwest.the very idea of Yank, and stetson is mutually exclusive to most southerners.Uphere in da wooly north hey, we's always wear a toque,or a hat made outta some kinda animal der hey.

[Gracie]

I find the whole thing about other nationalities and their affection for their pasts and Kilts fascinating.

I remember as a wee lad running about the Glens [actually, running about the streets but it spoils the romanticism] being made to wear a bloody Kilt on every stupid social occassion and wedding. Nowadays youd have to hold a gun to my head to get me into one and I dont even want to own one.

I even cringe when I encounter a Piper in the street as I dont like Pipers except when there are loads of them. I suppose it comes from living here instead of the nostalgia bit. Mind you I dont own a Stetson either and Im sure all you Yanks do!

I just have always liked the history of the UK very much, even before I started my genealogy and found out that we had any English or Scottish people in our family tree. I don't think my husband really intends to wear the kilt to the grocery store, lol but he would like it for Highland games and ren faires. :) Neither one of us own a cowboy hat, cowboy boots or a country music CD! LOL ... but then again I wouldn't assume all Scots own a kilt. lol.

actually within the US itself, the term Yankee is the total opposite of the southern cowboy/redneck.

[Gracie]

Yeah, well, don't we all feel that when trying not to vomit from the romanticism applied to the lives we actually live by people who aren't here?

I don't know about romanticism. I try to be exposed to other cultures as much as I can via whatever means I have at my disposal. My husband has extensively traveled the world via the Navy, and I don't know I assume your lives are "normal" and how they are dipicted as of today and not everyone sitting around in victorian dresses and kilts brandishing swords and roaming the fields. I mean, each place on Earth is different from the next, so what normal is varies but, I would say we do not have a romantic view of other places, history is history and not present.

However I can't speak for the majority of Americans who you are probably correct in assume still think it's like Braveheart over there in the streets because they saw it in a movie. lol.

They do have their uses, but Scotland probably isn't an appropriate place for them. Normandy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Millin) or Vågsøy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Churchill) are probably more appropriate, depending on exactly how friendly the locals are!

Yes I know, I wasnt being festy, I just find it interesting. I spent over a month in Arizona in 2007 and was mildly surprised when using a PC in the Hotel for the Internet and one patron asked if we had internet in Scotland! 'I'm sure we can manage to comprehend the Internet, we invented the feking steam engine and telephone for Feks sake, was the reply I wish I'd said'.

Mind you, if I had a pound for every American that liked my 'IRISH' accent I'd be a rich man. I usually reply to that one with something like, 'Oh you Canuks can be so funny'.

Perceptions eh!!!!

However, all joking aside, I have always had the warmest of welcomes and the best of treatment in the USA.

We had a Scottish boy in our 5th grade class in Houston, Texas (1970 - 71). I think he was the class favorite - we all loved his accent. :)

Speaking on the subject of "Yank" headgear, I would say that the stetson is not exactly the most common nation wide. If I had to pick one type of hat that is commonly worn in almost any region of the United States, it would probably be some form of baseball cap.

I remember at our high school in Texas (mid - late 1970's), most kids taking "Ag" courses and FFA members wore "railroad engineer" or ball caps with their FFA denim jackets .

The only time I can remember seeing the stetson in really large numbers was at the annual Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.

Here in Florida, your average "cracker" or "good ol' boy" will probably be wearing a ball cap.

And television (Baird). Macadamised roads (MacAdam). Waterproof raincoats (no idea who, but given they're called mackintoshes I'd hazard a guess a MacIntosh was involved); Anaesthetics (Simpson). Antisepsis (Lister). Pneumatic tyres (Dunlop). Kelvin Scale (Kelvin). Refrigerators (Harrison).

And just to annoy the Yanks ;), a Scot was the namesake of the Buick car and precursor of GM http://www.classiccar.com/articles/david_buick.asp and, horror of horrors, a Scot (John Paul Jones) founded the United States Navy and, worse, was subsequently an admiral in the Imperial Russian Navy.

Along with Scotland supplying ship's engineers and civil engineers to enable the expansion and functioning of the British Empire.

FE.

Crank her up to an indicated 85 - 90 mph (probably true 70+ if you were lucky and suicidal) but only on the crown of a deserted road and no cross wind. Indicated 60 was a handful off the crown.

Nothing wrong with the HD, apart from the pelvis splitting fenders which disappeared on the HR. From memory, the HD was the first Holden to have air con. Something that neither Holden nor Ford have yet perfected in the intervening 40 or so years compared with Japanese cars made around 1985.

The local shopping centre has fallen on hard times because of three super shopping centres close by. The shop behind my left shoulder has been under renovation off and on for ten years, not helped by the local vandals.

However overall it's a good place to live, no where near like some of the outer suburbs, but soon we're on the move to a better locale.

[32Bravo]

Ajusted when needed any good shooter can hit a target withought sights I have and will again its called "point and shoot"

Up to what range?

[Rising Sun*]

Up to what range?

And at what targets?

I have sufficient, and consistently disappointing, experience to say that at about 25 yds you're doing very, very well to point and shoot (i.e. snap shooting from the hip) a killing shot at a running rabbit with a .410 / 20 / 12 gauge shotgun. Although you can scare a lot of them almost to death.

I can also attest that point and shoot with a 7.62 SLR at about the same range is vastly less impressive with small animals, but rather more impressive with larger animals but still a long way short of inevitably fatal, although it improves dramatically with an M60, where the absence of pointing is made up for by the volume of shooting.

[Cpt_Prahl]

I'll put it this way My Grandfathers buddy hit a german forward observer 2 times in the head form 800 yards with Iron sights I used to shoot at cans at 175 + yards and leave the sight alone so much of shooting is knowing your weapon and ammo if you have shot as many and as much as I have in 36 years of life you can hit a deer running at 500 yards 99% of good shots use the guess where factor IE if you know your weapon how the round is effected by wind and range you usually hit your target with the first shot Me I used to shoot allmost every other day at home with anything rangeing from k-98s to hk 91's to M-15 to colt 1911's to ppks to you name it I laugh so many people want to know but how many of you have ever fired a weapon yet alone field stipped it I can do it in my sleep.

So what targets usually the steel card faces we had in the back yard and we could shoot at them from ten feet to 500 yards more if I wanted to piss of the neibors, all with Iron sights for me I never miss and I use my judgement to ajust my fire who has time to ajust a sight in combat anyway?

Here is the link for the article on Lt John Shelby make note I have the German's Binoculars in my possetion.

[Cpt_Prahl]

also called looking where you bullet hits nice with semi auto and full auto weapons. If your only looking down the sight with one eye closed how much you going to see? I use bolth eyes and I use the weapon as an extention of my body I can place 10 inch groups with a handgun at 15 yards withoput aiming and can put groups in 3 or 4 inch circles if I do. I have friends who shoot for the olympic team we trade secrets. its mostly just instinct to tell you the truth you either have it or you dont.

[Cpt_Prahl]

I agree, but I was shooting from the age of 7 and the first thing I shot was a 1916 Webly pistol with Dad's help of course n belive it or not I hit the target with my very first shot people have challenged me many many times to see if I was full of it and they were proven wrong I havent shot for years and just this winter was challeneged hit a can in the dark from 15 yards with the first shot with a co2 pellet gun pistol. and you know how un accurate they are a 9mm is crap to me, I prefer 45 cal 1911 hand gun,a clean weapon will be more accurate that a dirty one also wear and time on weapons is alwase a factor to but if you shoot allot like I have growing up you learn how all the different weapons are and amunitions too, I used to like to plink with various rifels at 125 yards and up just for fun dad said he would hate to be on the reciving end of any weapon I was handeling my farthest shooting was in the 500 yard range and the grouping gets large at that range when it is windy or if you have bad ammo.. also depends on the rifel and the rifeling me I love semi autos lots of lead in the air fast. Try a black powder long gun at 175 yards you practially pointing the thing a good foot above what you are shooting at to hit.

My fav weapons the ruger mini 14 and the Garand to this day, I still hate the M-16 varients that damn recoil spring making a racket right by your head. I prefer single shots semi auto not full auto, full auto is to waste ammo and scare the enemy more than place accurate directed single shot fire, but being quick in tough situations is important and having lots of practice at shooting (responding) fast while having the weapon at your sholder, and not have to squint and look through your sight helps your survivability, I have practiced this allot, mostly just for fun.
I'd rather have wood n steel any day than plastic n metal.
There has been many a time where I look down the left side of the weapon and aim not using the sight but watching where the bullet hits and correct from there, just cause a weapon has sights doesnt mean it has been sighted in I also ajust my weapons to me and not to the weapon. and again its mostly instinct and knowing your weapon either you are in controll of it or you might as well just throw the damn thing at the object and hope you hit it LOL

[Cpt_Prahl]

LOL! I'll post the pics of it when I dig through the mess I have here at home.

[Cpt_Prahl]

it just take practice and knowing your weapon and in Vermont n NH there are some big open places with very little brush or trees I was just making an example BTW eyesight is also a factor some of us can see deer very clearly at that range and if your using 308 or 306 home loads with a accurate shooter you should be able to hit anything within reason with iron sights (is John Shelby cab do it so can I) I dont like scopes all they do is get in the way hunting and then again where is the challenge? and if its windy no way forget it not possible at 500 yards, zero wind chances are good to dead on but never 100% and if you dont know how to sight a scope or ajust it what is the point anyway? If I was in the service now I would request sniper school and preferably us a Barret semi auto 50 cal with the latest optics, you can shoot an object from over a mile away n rember a lighter bullet will travel faster farther than a heavy one..... my average shots were at prolly 350 yards and less cos it's not often you have nice wide open spaces in the North east but then agin our biggest field was 750 yards from the back door open space, unlike where I live now in Sweden its open and flat here for sometimes 2 miles or more the MOOSE ARE HUGE!The DEER ARE small (mule deer here =/) but then again I havent hunted since 2004 here.

All I can say is Practice practice practice and its also knowing when you have a chance at making the shot or not an I have missed pleanty of times because an animal has changed direction at the last min....but then again I have hit too aim for the upper chest neck and a little towards the sholder depending on the range and position of the animal you should hit em in the breast cavity its pretty fatal n if you use soft tip rounds should stop em dead in their tracks. plus a deer only runs if it is spooked deer runiing at 500 yards is like aiming 3 yards ahaead when you squeez the trigger looks like 2 to 3 inches to the human eye at that range as I said its mostly guess work and knowing your weapon I suggest you get a batch of 500 rounds of the ammo you use to hunt and go to the range and practice like hell I used to shoot 500 rounds of 7.62/39 in an sitiing when I was a teen n that was with a AKS or Ak 47 with a 35 round mag fun as hell n good practice cos they are a 375 yard or less round they dropp like rocks after that range. I dunno I guess I am a redneck and I have been spoiled by a father who was a gun smith I grew up loading ammo building weapons and having fun in the woods plus I love weapons and shooting them practice makes perfect make note there were winter growing up that if we didnt kill something we didnt eat so you have to factor in that too.
Hunger makes for a pretty good motivator and growing up in the woods helps, I never hunt for sport I hunt for food.

[32Bravo]

make note one of my Favorite rifels to shoot was a MK III lee enfield from 1916 one of the most accurate moose deer guns I ever shot.

Absoutely fascinating. And since the age of seven years, was it not?

My only memory of the age of seven - which was only a few years ago - was my first Holy Communion. It stays with me because Father Cassidy said that from then on, I would become a sinner - terrifying.

I did have the odd catapult and pea-shooter, but after my first combat experience with a pea-shooter, I decided it was too dangerous. You see, I shot a pea up the nose of John Clancey. he wasn't able to extract it for hours. He screamed and screamed in pain, quite terrifying to listen to, it was. Eventually, though, he managed to have it removed. then I was the one screaming in pain when he took retribution.

Now I shoot a longbow. I can shoot it instinctively, as you describe, up to about thirtyish yards, and then I have to become more deliberate with my aiming. About one hundred yards is my maximum. I would need a more powerful bow to shoot farther, and I haven't developed the body strength, as yet, for it.

Still, I'm interested in those secrets you and your chums exchange. Are they about combat and killing people? You must have killed lots of people, sir, being such a good shot, and all?

[Cpt_Prahl]

I find the ability to use a bow a lot more impressive than shooting that takes more skill in my opinion, and for the most part I target shoot for practice, shooting people in combat isnt something one talks about in general, it's a thing one would rather forget, than reminiss about.

No secret really just understanding gereral physics a small light bullet will have more diflection than say a small heavy one its bacsic physics, watching your environment is key paying attention to which way the wind is moving and how strong the wind is, how fast a target is moving etc.. and most importantly knowing your weapon, having practiced with it for months on end and shooting lots of the same batches of ammo make for perfect shots.

I have had ammo dud out on me it's not fun, Thats all it take to become a causuality in war, hence clean your weapon know it like you know your hand treat it with great respect its a dangerous thing in the right persons hands, and even more dangerous in the hands of somone who doesnt know what they are doing.

Anyone with enough practice can shoot a target and have good groupings at 500 yards snipers shoot at 1000+ yards and over on a daily basis its what they are expected to do. I am at the moment trying to start a small company building custom M-1 Garands from new and servicable parts they made sniper versions of the Garand and some even saw combat in WW II. Me for long range presion shooting still think a well built springfield 1903 with home loads is the best rifel ever built but then again I a partial to them had one in the family since I was born n my father has owned several thousand rifels and shotguns and pistols in his and my lifetime currently he collects Finnish winter war rifels and Russian Moisen Nagant PE sniper rifels not to mention Swedish Johansen rifels and yes I have been shooting since the age of 7 and recived my first rifel a savage 22 semi auto at the age of 9 and built a 12 gauge shotgun from parts at age 11, so I suppose I would be a rare breed it all seems so normal to me but then again I grew up in the country there wasnt much else to do exept go hunting porcupines and rodents with 22s and shotguns mostly to keep the dogs from gettiing quilled we used to give the porqupines to a local abnaqui indian woman who made jewlry out of the quils and ate the meat. deer are plentiful in VT hell we never had to go far or shoot far they used to walk right into the back yard most kills were taken at under 100 yards but we have had some nice long range kills to back in the day and again I say I never hunted for sport mostly for food excluding the rodents that could cause damage to the dogs or fields.

Killing people is not something to relish it's just the sad fact of war people have to die better them than me.
Also rember most shooting combat takes place in under 375 yards hunting less long range hunting can only be done in remote areas because of the chances of people being hurt or killed so make note anytime I have been out hunting and taking a long shot is because the circomestances permitted it and nothing else now if I had only been smart enough to take a camera with me back then =/ but then again it's not often I have talked about this stuff only with Dad and a few other gun nut's

I'm currently in the process of getting parts to build a nice new garand from parts it'll be a non natioanl match shooter built for me for fun and to see if I can hit the 1000 yard mark with a scope on a custombuilt Garand using stock parts mius a stainless steel reciver and preformance 308 barrel. ;)
