Yup have to agree here. A hollow point can havea 1 inch entry wound and a 8 inch exit wound.... very veyr messy. And yeah we are very nice, it almost hurts sometimes how nice we are. But hey that is the way we are trained to be so that is what plays out..... -------------------------------------------------- Fear is not a confession of weakness, it is an oportunity for courage.

they have the right to be shot by me if they are in my house and pose a threat to me or my family.... and i dont miss.,..... -------------------------------------------------- Fear is not a confession of weakness, it is an oportunity for courage.

yup me and mike igo talked about that before my first jump on saturady, and that is preatty much what i did. I was the last one out on a few loads so on those i rode them all the way in, but other than that i just got out of the way for the more expierenced jumpers.

ok so an over exageriation.... nothing more. No offence just making an example.... -------------------------------------------------- Fear is not a confession of weakness, it is an oportunity for courage.

i got 15 jumps now, and that was on jump 8. I feel preaty comfortable under canopy now, and just had a bad spot on the load... hence being on the far side of the runway and landing in the ditch. but after that i had good rides and landings at least close to the lading area.... i was a little hesitant to ride it all the way there due to the amount of people in the air, so i usually landed a little off the landing area on purpose. Oh well, i had a blast either way!!! Blue Skys -------------------------------------------------- Fear is not a confession of weakness, it is an oportunity for courage.

like said befoer if we signed it we wouldl be the only country to follow the rules of it. And claymores are preaty cool, first time i trained with them i was fastinated.... anyways.....

lol you r not the only one who needs to learn to spell Anyways, yeah i just ran out of space i was shooting for right past it and i though i had it, oh well. It got a good lauch out of it and so did everyone who say me walking back sooking wet and covered in mud!!!! oh well live and learn huh? Blue skys -------------------------------------------------- Fear is not a confession of weakness, it is an oportunity for courage.

favorate moment.... landing in the ditch on my graduation jump first time with no radio...... learned a valuable rule: if it is shinny you dont want to land in it. Oh well Blue Skys -------------------------------------------------- Fear is not a confession of weakness, it is an oportunity for courage.

all i got to say is finishing my aff and learning to pack with all those freaking people was hard, but after that it was awsome!!!!! Had an amazing time!!! -------------------------------------------------- Fear is not a confession of weakness, it is an oportunity for courage.

ok i am going to tread litly since i am a guest on this board. First off the AR15 was origionaly replacment for the m14 back in the 70's. And yeah it shoots a 5.56, or .223 round, but that is a casuatly producing weapon. that is alot of powder behind a small bullet in return the terminal bulistics of that size round of contact is devistating.... in other words the bullet will flip, turn, slide and do all kinds of stuff when it hits a body. AKA round in a tthe heart level and cound exit at the sholder. The Ar15 is very very easy to modify to fullauto. I have seen it done and could easly repeat the process in maybe 15 minutes. The same thing does for a SKS a weapon the is semiauto, but can be easly modified to be fullauto. You can but conversion kits for bothe of these weapons for about 20 dollars at any gun show. Those weapons are fun to shoot, yes, they are easy o operate, yes, but they are not hunting weapons. By the way when the military designes a weapon it is not designed to simply shoot bullets, it is designed to create the largest casuality as possible aka to kill you on contact. Just cause a round is small does not mean it can not be leathal. the reson the 30 cal is not used by the army any more, besides snipers, is cuase it is over kill and hard to control. so basicaly i feel that those weapons are not needed in peoples homes. It is just my opinion. I think it is an educated opinion but it is just mine. you can agree or disagree thats your progiative. Also please dont think that i am trying to be argumentive or anything like that, im just trying to get some facts out that you may not know as of yet. oh one more thing.... those guns i listed earler are not "machine guns" they are assult riffles or submachine guns. A michine gun is something like a m249, saw, or M60. just a pet peave of mine... joys of military weapons training.... Blue Skys -------------------------------------------------- Fear is not a confession of weakness, it is an oportunity for courage.

dont get me wronge i shoot a m16 all the time, but it is a military weapon adn i shoot it with my unit, so i know they are fun, but i think that theey should be controled me strictly thats all. -------------------------------------------------- Fear is not a confession of weakness, it is an oportunity for courage.

i forgot to mention one thing. I am a strong gun suported, however i do feel that some sence of gun control is ok. For example, i do not see why someone needs to have an asault riffle like an AR15, m16, m4, mp5, things like that. THose guns are military guns, and they ment to kill people, not kill dear. So i dont think that those weapons should be allowed to owned by proivate citizens. A .45 is going to stop someon just as affectivly as a 5.56 m4 so go figure.... but like i said before i own gunss, and will always own guns but there needs to be some sence of control. -------------------------------------------------- Fear is not a confession of weakness, it is an oportunity for courage.

hmmm had to read this one.... gun and me are good friends. I am trainned to use them to keep me and my buddys alive. AKA army. So i am 20 year old and i own several guns, only one of which is a hand gun which was a gift from my parents when i got back from my training. Ifi am put in a situation on whick i have to protect my family, or stop an intruder i will do it, and i will not shoot to stop. I will put 2 to center mass and one to the head, thats the way i am trained. In my state, if someone comes into my house or my properity and makes me feel that i am at risk for bodly harm then i have legal right to shoot to kill at that individual. guns are not made to stop people they are made to kill. If someone is comin after me i am not going to pull a 22, i am going to pull a 20 or a 45 and drop him. SOunds rough and yeah i guesse it is, but i will protect my family an my self, bottom line.

Hey guys i just wanted to say that it was great to have yall be part of the Boogie!!!! Thanks for adding to the great time! -------------------------------------------------- Fear is not a confession of weakness, it is an oportunity for courage.

FIRST and formost let me say this... i am giving no advise to anyone look at my profile... i have 10 jumps. Now with that said, when i finished my aff i had several people offer to jump wwith me and all that kind of stuff, but it seemed that i had alot more who just wanted to tell me what to do. Now i am new to this sport, and i dont know everything, but what i do know is this.... unless you area coach, instuctor, or rigger i seriously doubt i will listen to your advise. I want to be safe man, i dont want just anyone to be giving me advise. So in return there were several times i had to stop people politly and tell them that i was going to follow the instructions of my coachs and go from there,. Anyways Blue Skys -------------------------------------------------- Fear is not a confession of weakness, it is an oportunity for courage.

yeah on my last 2 aff jumps we worked on flatening me ou a bit, and trying to hug the ball thpe of thing. It helped a bit, but i still droped like a rock. Anyways Blue SKys -------------------------------------------------- Fear is not a confession of weakness, it is an oportunity for courage.

Ok so i just graduated my AFF today and did 2 extra jumps for the heck of it. Well i soon reolized that i fall so freaking fast that it is rediculas!!!! So here is my question. I am looking to get a jump suit and i know i need to slow down so what shuld i look for and what are yalls expierences with falling to fast. If all that makes any sence please feel free to give me your .02 Blue Skys -------------------------------------------------- Fear is not a confession of weakness, it is an oportunity for courage.

i use a proteck with a big fat radio on the top!!!!! How ever since my last jump with that thing is tomarrow and i plan to get a proteck for myself and slap a custom paint job on it.... i love to paint. Reason... its cheap and work good! Anyways Blue skys -------------------------------------------------- Fear is not a confession of weakness, it is an oportunity for courage.

just my .02 but i use nomex gloves on all my jumps. They are desigend for pilots to fly planes in so i figured they would be ok in the air, and they are. You can get them at any army surpluss store.

hahaha... i had a simular situation with a new guitar.... since i onlly have 12 i decided i had to havea new custom made acoustic costing me about 5 grand...... so what i did was hide it in the clost with a few of my others and then took it on day to play and she was like... wow is that new, then i showed her the dust on the case and she was like... oh never mind, just hadnt seen it. She still to this day has no clue. So Smooth Blue Skys -------------------------------------------------- Fear is not a confession of weakness, it is an oportunity for courage.

i know im just a newbie but why the hell would you want to cut away a perfectly good canopy? Especially since it is the reserve, i amena if somethign gets screwed up on the main after you cut the reserve, your secrewed. Yeah you have a long canopy ride, but hey, i would raher have a long canopy ride, then take the chance of my main not opening properly with no reserve. oh well just my thoughts Blue Skys -------------------------------------------------- Fear is not a confession of weakness, it is an oportunity for courage.
