    M114 SWAT vehicle gets WGTi mods

    I know that many on these SWAT teams are either former military, or trained by former military. So since either option falls into the same category of "silly"(according to you)...Based on this, my question is who are these trained proffessionals supposed to be then? Maybe those black T-shirt...

I must say that I was impressed with the match Home Depot made. Although the pictures look vastly different, where we stopped painting was only...
