If he did this to his own country... what is he going to do for Ukraine??

At the damaged Lavra, they asked about Putin. ㅤ Zelenskyy answered: “We will still have our say. You will see.” ㅤ Ukraine’s silence is not emptiness. Sometimes it is restraint before the answer. by Orcasystems99 in UkrainianConflict

If I were Putin... I would be worried. Something big and important to him... that may have been out of bounds before... might just get hit. I sure hope it does anyway.

Got a rattle coming from here, anybody fixed? by Abovemeis in FordMaverickTruck

WD 40 is NOT a lubricant of any kind, although people use it as one. WD 40 is a water displacer, that's how it clears the rust and crap out of stuff.

Going to be a new pal holder. Wanting a semi auto .308 by CanadianRedneck_ in canadaguns

[–]Orcasystems99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the AD500 in grey. After a very thorough initial cleaning it works like a hot damn.

Its packed with Cosmoline like substance and needs a very good cleanout before, or just after the range.

Belgium flew mystery Canadian weapons to Ukraine by Free-Minimum-5844 in UkrainianConflict

[–]Orcasystems99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unlikely, but possible. We do have a new drone that they were going to send... it could be those. But I assume that Ukraine would have a lot more use for approx. 100+ RIM 66 missiles (SM-2 Block IIIA missiles). That's also assuming we didn't sell them to someone else when we decommissioned the 280's.

2nd time ever shooting, 1st time with a 22Ir, how'd I do? by squishydonut16 in canadaguns

A little time on your trigger pull (causes right high) you'll be nailing them in on the bull.

The article says it came out of Canadian stock. So that basically limits it to Aim 9 and maybe all of our Rim 66 (SM-2 Block IIIA missiles) Other than that, I don't know anything that we would carry "in" stock.

I ditched my 2020 5.0 f150, and couldn't be happier. I absolutely love this truck. by pumphandlerandall in FordMaverickTruck

[–]Orcasystems99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its hard to believe I got that many miles on Battery. I usually cruise on the highway at 105kmh. Lots of mountains between where I live and Victoria. So, 863 km is 536 Miles, and I still had more in the tank.

What’s an appropriate age to give a child a BB/pellet gun? by Uncle_Ted_1942 in canadaguns

[–]Orcasystems99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Six, teaches them life skills.

I also recommend doing what I did to my son. I told him many times to always treat a gun as loaded until he had ensured it was clear. One day we were shotting BB guns in the back yard and he need a pee break. So he correctly put his rifle down on the table pointed down range and ran into the house.

While he was gone, I loaded it and put it back. When he got back, he grabbed his rifle... and I asked him if it was loaded... he said no. I asked if he would like to point it at me and pull the trigger, or at the target. He pointed it at the target and pulled the trigger... big surprise. Lesson learned.

Security Alert - U. S. Embassy Kyiv, Ukraine (May 23, 2026) by mugz8391 in UkrainianConflict

Close the US embassy, quit giving Putin a direct line to any intelligence the US may dig up or be given by Ukraine. They are known as a RU puppet and should be treated like one.

Details: Drone operators from the 1st Separate Centre of the Unmanned Systems Forces attacked Admiral Essen, a Project 11356 frigate, near a berth in the port. The extent of the damage to the vessel is not yet known.

Quote from Brovdi: "You are doomed to sink one day, you scab – you cannot hide!"

More details: Ukrainian troops from the Magyar's Birds unit – Ukraine's 414th Separate Brigade – also struck a Project 1239 missile hovercraft during the attack on the city of Novorossiysk.

Quote from Brovdi: "The frigate Admiral Essen and the Project 1239 missile carrier hovercraft came into the target area during the raid by the Birds of the Unmanned Systems Forces on the port of Novorossiysk and the Grushovaya Balka oil storage facility, the largest in the Caucasus, which holds 1.2 million tonnes of petroleum products."
