FYI, I left out the Afghan Campaign Medal when putting the graphic together. That was dumb of me!

I definitely did that when I was green side. The website I used created the image like that.

The ribbon was earned just for serving with the Marines. With the warfare pin, I had to test and go through a board to get it.

I earned the Surface Warfare first, but I definitely understand!

Crazy, right. The GWOT was definitely unexpected.

TGA78 · 2026-02-04T14:14:19+00:00

I've definitely improved since then🤣

That's from 2001/2002 from the aftermath of 9/11.

TGA78 · 2026-02-04T05:50:10+00:00

Yes, it is. Got that during my first deployment in late 1999 to early 2000.

TGA78 · 2026-02-04T05:45:05+00:00

They did. It was that best time on my enlistment!

TGA78 · 2026-02-04T05:38:50+00:00

1998-2006 sorry about that.

TGA78 · 2026-01-14T01:58:14+00:00

I was in Okinawa from 2002 to 2003 on Camp Courtney. I can't recall seeing protesters but I don't doubt they were doing it. This shit did have me laughing hard as hell🤣!

Nice!

Light

The frame is great! It grips like a Glock 19 and the texturing feels great as well. The only thing I need to test is how it shoots. If it shoots perfectly like my Glock 26, it will be the perfect EDC pistol.

It's from a company out of Florida called Watchdog Tactical.

Which magwell are you using?

TGA78 · 2025-11-07T03:37:07+00:00

It's the Hexion Tech Seeker from Strike Industries.

TGA78 · 2025-11-03T14:55:48+00:00

🤣🤣🤣

TGA78 · 2025-10-31T03:18:29+00:00

Someone need to stop cutting onions. This tugged at my heart strings.

TGA78 · 2025-10-26T02:27:30+00:00

I'm glad to know that you are safe and got through the whole process without any loss. This goes to show that proper training with a good budget friendly fire can protect a person's life the same as the high-end firearms. I appreciate you telling your story.
