World's largest army, never thought of this.

I've rather enjoyed the debate and am about to light up some sort of tobacco product to further my enjoyment.

I just got home from a night out and im far too fat, full, and tired to mildly engage in this soiree but I thoroughly enjoyed the exchange of opinions in this thread.

It was a good one to be sure. A night spent in debate while sipping and adult beverage and enjoying a good pipe is a pleasant evening indeed. However, it sounds like you had a pretty good evening yourself.

Yea I hadnt seen my mother in about two yrs and I mentioned (jokingly) the weekend before this past one if she could move back to Oklahoma. Fortunately she has the ability to roam where her heart desires so she arrived here on Friday from California for a short visit.

Talk about a surprise with very short notice on her part, she was here in under a week! lol I love that lady...

 

[soonerwings]

That's awesome! Reminds me of something my mom would do!

Too bad many of those hunters are FUDDs and would just as soon you didn't have your evil baby killing AR-15.

And before anyone starts, I've been hunting since I was 9 years old.

I've been hunting since i was 9 too. Started out on squirells

I'd argue against that. The majority of hunters I've known throughout my life were remarkably untrained, or unpracticed, riflemen. They dust off their chosen hunting piece a few weeks before hunting season, fire off a few rounds for zero, take a deer or two, then it goes back in the safe till next fall. They get good with a piece over years of using it...but they are from from true shooters.

I would even go out on a limb to say that this describes the majority of deer hunters.....no stats behind it, just a general impression from knowing and hunting with folks up north, down south, and out here in Oklahoma.

How does that compare to a conscript's proficiency?

The world's largest army... America's hunters!

There were over 600,000 hunters this season in the state of Wisconsin .
That number pales in comparison to the 750,000 who hunted the woods of Pennsylvania and Michigan's 750,000 hunters, all of whom have now returned home.
Toss in a quarter million hunters in West Virginia, and don't forget the 1,169,667 in Texas, so it literally establishes the fact that the hunters of those five states alone would comprise the largest army in the world.

Somewhere, A liberal just got sick when they seen these numbers.

If we are invaded screw the geneva convention bs. I will use ballistic tips, and hollow points. But truthfully I think it will be safest to rat hole all my ammo and guns in a cellar to get away from all the stray bullets. When things get a little quiet come out for either my last stand or to go grab all the invaders weapons. Its a survival thing, nothing about fear.

...that being said all the electronics in those nukes are most likely made in china. Would that be an example of irony.

Uhhh, yeah.... No.

 

[338Shooter]

Yeah, I'd wager nuclear device control electronics are not outsourced to china.
