Honey Badger's new rifle...

[Private Pickle]

I said I would slap you upside the head. I didn't say anything about your face.


I thought you linguists were supposed to understand words.

Well in real life you wouldn’t slap $#@! because I would beat you within an inch of your life. Regardless of whether it was my face or head. Of course we are just talking hypothetically. This is all in fun and all.

I don’t think you understand what us “linguists” did in the military. We learned multiple languages to further the goals of our Nation. Mind you those other languages have a very different way of communication. Something people who only speak English don’t understand.

You see people who speak different languages do so in a context that often times isn’t purely “American”. It’s our jobs as linguists to cut through the cultural barrier. I learned a lot when I was in places like Bosnia and Croatia.

What I took away from those experiences is that there are a few select weapons I think are important. Outside of those few select weapons everything else is a toy.

Not on your best day... or my worst.

You may want to try to get a handle on English, first.

I am pretty sure I have lived and/or worked in more countries than you have ever visited.

What I have learned from my experiences is that everything from a rock to an ICBM has its place and in skilled hands can be something you don't want to face unless you have to.

Funny stuff.

Whatever you say chief.

I was never a warrant officer. Lieutenant Colonel would be the proper title, private.

Well you’re retired now and I worked for a living so I’ll defer to “chief”.

I started as a private and became an NCO long before I moved on to be an officer.

I’ve never questioned your service nor your dedication to our country.

If you are into nice lines and wood furniture, it definitely is not the gun for you.

Is this why the younger shooters call it the .45 AARP instead of the .45 ACP ???....

I heard that once on a gun forum and spit sweet tea all over my keyboard.

Put me in the group that likes wood and steel....and automatic handguns that are easily recognizable like the Luger, 1911, Walther PPK & P-38, Colt .32 , and the Beretta M1951.

I could not tell one of those blocky, square polymer autos from one another if my life depended on it.

I also LOVE...LOVE...external hammers.

But still, I would enjoy popping some caps with you one day.

If the invitation ever arises, I will bring 200 rounds of 5.7x28 for you as a courtesy.

... arrived yesterday.

I threw an Eothech and a light on it and it is good to go.

I have heard a lot of good about this new weapon of yours.
I await your range report.

[Retirednsmilin308]

FN makes great weapons.

You can say that again...
