Israel/iran

This seems to be somewhat new development , headcovering was still madatory last time i was there but that was now 10y ago , it was quite bizzare the action that was happening on the airport as soon as jet started rolling down the tarmac, women folk started undresing . Passenger photo before and after would have been hilarious , massive outfit change


*it seems this is now practice in Tehran and other mayor cities for 2 or so years . and things went beyond scarfes

PVA now offering AR15 barrels!

Large Frame
308 10 twist Rifle Gas, up to 22" long
6.5mm 7.5tw Rifle+2 Gas, up to 24" long
6mm 7tw Rifle+2 Gas, up to 24" long

These will be open for order in a length and caliber option but 1 contour (the contour is really the bastard of making AR barrels). So for large frame stuff you will be able to pick from say 6 GT, Creed, etc or 6.5 Creed, 260, x47, etc.
Looking forward to that 6cm barrel. I've got a large frame upper and lower that needs to be worked on!

Night Vision NVG Focus Covers: Phokus Hoplite vs Matbock Tastier Eclipse

Phokus is nice because you can go from no aperture restriction to restricted with the flip of a cap. The old model had different sized aperture inserts, while the new model had preset sizes that can be dialed into place. Mattock charges an arm and a leg for the Tarsier, and while they’re well made, they annoyed me right off the bat because more often than not my gloved hand struggled to open/close the iris without also rotating focus. A lot of guys buy inexpensive camera irises off of Amazon that work well too.
Thanks for the feedback. This is kinda what I was thinking. I have seen the DIY options but I just wanna buy something that fits.

Israel/iran

not making a big deal about the Saudi citizens involvement in 9/11. you are making a big deal about an simple observation that our "friends" in the ME are not uniformly our friends. any direct Saudi involvement in 9/11 has never really come up. don't deal with my other questions as you will. not necessary. i am aware of the obsessive love for Israel present in a lot of places including congress,MIC,exec branch,CIA and the many Zionist fundamentalist Christians in this country. we'll see where that leads in the next few days or weeks. maybe Iran will be totally devastated,maybe not.
From experience, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, until their usefulness wears off is how they played it in Iraq and Afghanistan. That seems to be a common thing over there.

the cheap way, is a tac nuke
the expensive NON nuclear way, is a telephone length pole, accelerated at high speeds from orbit....... just saying
The other route, is just DECLARE - imminent domain, and take 99% of IRAN for low income housing, and ship most of our prison population over there to help build the houses. Bacon and burgers for the workers.
You're talking about the "Rods from God" plan.

Israel/iran

One of the great ironies of this war is that it's allegedly being waged because a country who doesn't have nuclear weapons and is a member in good standing of the non-proliferation treaty, is being accused by a country that secretly has nukes and isn't part of the non-proliferation treaty of attempting to build nukes (with no evidence to back up that assertion and counter to US intelligence assessments).

Things that make you go 🤔
Good standing:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:. Are you kidding? Iran?

Boeing down in India

Without knowing the exact specifics of the 787, is there someway that a pilot could induce a configuration where it attempted a takeoff with the center tank feeding both engines and there was a subsequent failure of the center tank system? Or do the wings always feed the engines and the center fuel is transferred to the wings.

The 787 fuel system is pretty much the same as the 737. Center pumps are "over ride" pumps and wings are "boost" pumps. The over ride pumps are higher pressure and "over ride" the wing tank boost pumps... You would take off with all 6 pumps on, which is what we do in the 737. IF you had a center tank pump failure the wing tank pumps are already running.

AND if all 6 pumps were off you will still get suction feed from the engine high pressure pump as long as the spar valve(shut off valve is open).

The only way on takeoff you could have a fuel starvation loss of power is if the spar valves were closed... Those are controlled by the fuel cutoff/start levers as well as the fire switches. There is talk of them closing in a loss of A/C power situation... Im digging back into my 737 systems knowledge here from 8 years ago, but I believe they are alternately powered off the standby power bus. So even if you lost main A/C power you still have power to the spar valves via standby DC power. 737 doesnt have a RAT so thats battery power. If the RAT deployed and is producing DC power then the spar valves would have remained open IMO... Again thats how the 737 works, maybe in the 787 something else has control of the fuel shut off valves...

Canadian Ranger rifles in the Arctic need replacements, don’t work in the cold

If they had used a manners or mcmillan they probably wouldn't be having the stock issues.
Dry film moly lube is your friend in climates like that.
I concur with the postulation of changing temps inside/outside.
I think you're right as they would still be waiting on them:LOL:
