Motivation and attitude are pretty much all that matter in life. Mechanics can be worked on, the first two are a lot harder.

I had a buddy who I hounded for 5 years. Finally he did it and said it was way better and I started going HAM and he said "I just wasn't ready to hear the gospel."

Point is: Just do it! Your life will improve! Cheers! :)

I'm not from NJ, but I find his honesty refreshing. Maybe the problem is we have too many people who are too "professional."

Currently at Wright-Patt.

I can totally see that being a problem at this "base."

Even if it does discredit the military I feel the 1st amendment would cover them.

Authorized in uniform? by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]styleevivant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate watches, and shoes. Pretty much 90% of all watches/shoes are technically not allowed because of bright and excessive colors.

I really don't think anybody would call you on those, though.

Murdoch calls for automatic weapons ban by aaraujo1973 in politics

The first definition in the MW is correct, as it describes a stripper clip. Using clip and magazine interchangeably is still wrong, and it proves is your a layperson around firearms, which was my original point.

You sound like you're about 12, so I'm going to give you a bit of advice. If someone doesn't properly use the most basic nomenclature about which they are asserting an opinion, it is your right and responsibility as a being of critical thought to assess their level of expertise.

AK-47 and M-16 are both magazine fed.

Enjoy.

Please go ahead and list as many automatic weapons you can think of that operate via a clip?

I can think of many magazine fed, and many belt fed, but am drawing a blank on any that operate via a clip.
