It is fine. Shoots like a dream. Long slide really tames 10mm and gives a very nice sighting plane. I found iron sights to be faster than an ACOG (Trijicon RMR) and much more natural to me as I...

That would be, me, Pete :D

Hi to all. Been catching up and at 33% strength it is tough getting back on track. Making progress but it is the proverbial 2 steps forward one step back.

I would say that is a fair description of what many (if not most) NGOs would have the greater audience accept. My expereince and perhaps M-A's suggest that the reality is all too often quite...

I applaud the fact that you even brought that point to light in front such an obviously pure-of-heart audience. Goma in my day was perhaps one of the most startling example of that...

Your best post ever, Wilf

Not a good soldier in the mold of the day? Nope and Lawrence said that himself.

Phil,

Amen. I love Dave Kilcullen's 28 articles as a framework and have used it extensively on here after a couple of council members bounced their thoughts against it. I taught a class to a...

Sam,

I personally consider the entire construct of assymetric (mispelling is deliberate :D) an artificial creation in that it says a clever enemy fights your weaknesses not your strengths. Only...

Steve, I agree with you for sure in this one. Dave was working the issue of strategic compression and I believe that concept trully applies in its most relevant form when discussing COIN. The fact...

Sam, from a class I gave last Friday

What you are describing is essentially tribal in that it lays out the extra-legal/non-governmental-- legitimate in the eyes of the locals --use of force. I use legitimate because that is...

Such a far cry from the "bring it on" in 2004. Agree, Steve. But you are proving your own post as below:

I am flattered guys. I have to say that 6 years ago I finally got what I have never had in my life--a permanent home in a place I like (yes, I like Louisiana) and working with people I respect and...

Don Vought as a civilian sat on my editorial board for LP 14. COL Denny Frasche was CSI Director and he recruited guys to look at UW. LTC Jack Hixson was Research Committee Chief and he let...
