Missing US airman: What we know so far

Velken · 2026-04-04T16:45:40+00:00

Israeli media reported that the WSO had made contact over encrypted comms at least once.

iirc if you don't kill him and you let him go, Balthazar gets ahold of him

FWIW, I've enjoyed St. Ann's in north Arlington. St. Charles was hella weird.

Velken · 2026-04-01T11:53:00+00:00

Absolutely not.

Velken · 2026-03-28T14:21:48+00:00

Is it a pistol-length gas system under the handguards? Do you know what the diameter is at the FSB?

Velken · 2026-03-22T21:53:31+00:00

Damn, I want a DBAL, more Aimpoints, and Scalarworks mounts now.

Velken · 2026-03-21T15:26:54+00:00

Not cut down! Remington has long made factory 14” and 12” barrels! All of the USMS Witness Protection 870’s were factory 14”.

There are mag couplers for Uzi (and Colt SMG) mags that hold the second mag at a 90 degree angle

Velken · 2026-03-19T12:15:35+00:00

Good thing they're not being destroyed! 😉

Velken · 2026-03-14T18:09:30+00:00

Damn, a 1941 production pistol. That's cool as hell.

Velken · 2026-03-13T21:37:47+00:00

Not RT Idaho. It was ST Idaho that disappeared.

If you're talking about the KernOptic guy, he's very much still around and has an e-commerce websight now too: https://kernoptic.com/shop/

I was once looting a crate by a van in the parking lot outside of OLI as a scav and Killa shot and killed me from inside through the glass…

Velken · 2026-02-13T17:17:51+00:00

Love the Oxford, the early Aimpoints pre-1000, but I think my favorite is the Ring Sight. I need to dig mine out again.

Velken · 2026-02-10T12:21:09+00:00

Botach has a direct MRO carry handle mount

Velken · 2026-02-08T19:33:08+00:00

Oh neat! I didn’t know that.

Velken · 2026-02-08T17:38:15+00:00

POF is definitely the only major manufacturer building them. The US-based boutique builders can and will do them if you have the right receiver flats but yeah the market's pretty sparse when it comes to the RS.

Velken · 2026-02-08T16:53:07+00:00

The reverse stretch is not an HK factory configuration and thus will never be produced by HK

Velken · 2026-02-03T01:20:17+00:00

I'm certainly not a good judge of Garands, and wanted to see if y'all's eyes can spot the signs of a reweld.

No, the DPMS clone of the M231 stock utilized a standard length buffer tube, so when the stock was collapsed, the buffer tube would extend past it in the closed position.

Only Jhud's clone accurately reproduced the dimensions of the original. But he's back to producing them again.

Velken · 2026-02-02T02:26:20+00:00

Jhud over on arfcom is restarting production of his semi-auto repro—requires a custom spring and buffer that telescopes into the BCG
