    HMMWV Boarding Ladder Options?

    Well . . . there you go - done and done! You might want to check to make sure that doesn't clash with the "official" colors of the wedding (but I think it will be OK).

    HMMWV Boarding Ladder Options?

    Camo nets are "floral decorations", right?

    Check out what cleaned up, polished FMTV Aluminum Wheels look like!

    CARC-B-GONE New and improved Now with scrubbing bubbles That is just a guess. I don't know, if that is what was really used. :lol:

    Gun Truck with a what in the back?

    Of course, it has a license plate. Not sure if it is a Historical Vehicle plate though. The question is - does it have insurance and where did they get it? Come on! You know I am just playing, right? rofl

    Code Enforcement Threat

    When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail - which is NOT a good way to repair watches.

    Code Enforcement Threat

    Knowing weapons and how to use them is a powerful skill when that part doesn't work. :wink:

    Some Days I Love My Job

    You should have seen National Guard Armories prior to 9-11, if you want to talk about "tight" government facilities - and - yes, the vault was full of weapons!

    Some Days I Love My Job

    Good observation - better not let them see the camera. Get one of those really cool "spy briefcase thingies". That should help. I think you can find them on Ebay. :-D

    Beware GL auctions with mandated riggers

    If the "load" is this - it is really stupid! https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?172459-Lockers-in-Hutchinson-KS

    Military Radio - Computer Interface

    I don't think I understand a tenth of what you are talking about, but - this sounds like it has some very cool possible applications for creating "radio chatter" during a static display? I have a program on my computer that converts typed text to Morse code. I am just trying to figure out...

    Beware GL auctions with mandated riggers

    Yep. Sounds like "somebody" knows "somebody" (or "somebody" is related to "somebody").

    New Wisconsin show/rally Aug 12th, Central Wisconsin Military Show

    I will use them and some rope to make a "fence" for my gun collection (44 guns plus 137 "High Explosive" items, as of now) display at next year's BA-DA BA-DA BING BANG Rally. The gun collection will take eight tables, but of course I will be busy most of the day doing other things besides...

    New Wisconsin show/rally Aug 12th, Central Wisconsin Military Show

    Some great write ups about the show. Now - as promised - my turn (from the "buying public's" point of view). Mrs. GUNNUT in Iowa and I drove about 9 hours from home to attend the show. We had been to Iola a couple of times before and knew this would be "different", but we took a chance. Mrs...

    Invited to the museum?

    Take photos before you loan it to them. They will be very helpful to document condition. Consider insurance. Yes, I read your comment about the insurance. Is that (has to be stored at your residence) negotiable with your company? Does their insurance cover your stuff? Think "renter's...

    BA-DA BA-DA BING BANG RALLY - Atlantic, IA

    The cannon barrel is solid "1045" steel. It was lined with solid rust on Saturday (and that was before I shot it). It took three ignition cartridges before it would dry out enough to fire. Of course, I had already loaded it just prior to firing so it was imperative that I got it to shoot -...
