Sometimes I pretend to be normal
12 in September. But i keep getting random dizzy spells since the suspected siezure. I'd be a burden to them. Besides if I get put in meds , I'll be forced to notify them and it's an instant med board and most likely medical discharge

MOST cleaning kits. I can't tell you how many I guys that I would go the range with that had just a bag of bits for cleaning and forgot the lube.
Yeah. Sometimes, life tells you to go down a certain path and other times, won't let you go down the path you want. Plus, I'm burnt out. If you count my guard time plus the Civil Air Patrol time, I've been wearing a Military uniform in an official capacity since 1999.

Some guys didn't even know what the patches and hook were for and would just use a bore brush when cleaning and wipe the outside down with lube. 
Yep. I had a guy one time at a range, had a brand new shot gun, a pump Winchester 12 gauge, kept jamming. Dude was getting pissed. Walked up, asked if I could help, out some CLP on her and thing ran flawless from there on. Showed him how to clean and lube it. He was thrilledSome guys didn't even know what the patches and hook were for and would just use a bore brush when cleaning and wipe the outside down with lube.

Wow, I just heard that the company I used to work for just did another round of layoffs. 90% of the remaining staff was cut and they were given nearly nothing for severance. 6 years of service only got a 4 week severance. Up to 3 years service got 2 weeks. No healthcare coverage either. Insurance runs out at the end of the month.
Pricks.
Pricks.
Pretty sure cobra law says otherwise......

I'd save ya Mike... I enjoy handling and playing with them.. At work they had a 12' Burmese python, weighted over 100lbs. She loved guys and I always had the chore of taking her out of her cage..
