Rifle Scopes Stolen Valor looking for a Tangent Theta

[orkan]

Just had a douche bag call up looking for a Tangent Theta.

He said things like "I compare everything to my leupold mark 4, and it's basically the best scope I've ever seen... better than S&B's even." "I just want to know if its worth the extra few thousand dollars." "I'm looking at a leupold mark 8, and it's just the best scope out there to look through."

Then he started talking about his fake military career.

"I don't really care about the ruggedness of the scope, because I'm not jumping out of helicopters, not using it to defend my life, not anymore." "A buddy of mine had a nightforce that was shot, and it still worked." (I found this particularly amusing since no one on earth hasn't seen the picture of the nightforce with a bullet hole in the tube.)

After enduring 10 minutes or better of his stupidity, at that point I asked "What unit were you with?" He says "I'm sorry, what was that?" I said "What unit were you with?"

*click*

He called from a blocked number, and had a 120lb hipster voice. Sounded like a total pussy. No doubt he's nothing but a sack of shit with a mouth. Just a heads up to my fellow vendors on the hide that this guy may be calling around looking for a military discount. It is for this reason that Primal Rights requires documentation and verification process of all military discounts.

I'm sure that working in a retail market you get to see and talk to all kinds of shit bags... Lol..

 

[TheOE800]

I mean, it's $4.6K? Do you blame him? LOL!

 

[orkan]

Yes, I blame him.

This isn't food, water, or some other required thing we're talking about here. This is a rifle scope.

Claiming to be prior military when you aren't is lower than whale shit.

We disagree like conservatives and Dems but you are without a doubt right on this one.

Hey, my mom needed the phone.

I'll call you back later.

I hung of up because it's a secret unit picked from team 6 and Delta and a can't talk abou it on the phone.
You never did answer if the tangent is as good as the mark 8.



LOL!

 

[ICU22250]

If he told you what unit he was with, he would have to kill you...

 

[pmclaine]

Probably posts regularly in the Bear Pit and fights with other members because he thinks shit on the internet matters.

 

[jfk]

Maybe it was Casey Ryeback, chef extraordinaire.

 

[black5.3]

Why would he jump out of a helicopter??? Lol

 

[ZY100]

Why would he jump out of a helicopter??? Lol

um...because that is the safest thing to do when you are in a fling wing....

 

[CRT2]

Why would he jump out of a helicopter??? Lol

Well, the C47 had birds fly thru the cockpit windows so we jumped (parachuted) from a CH34.

 

[sandwarrior]

Why would he jump out of a helicopter??? Lol

Because that's more fun than jumping out of a C-130 or a C-141... Think of it as your "introductory to HALO"

It was the "defending his life" with a scope that made me laugh. I'm thinking at the point you need to defend your life, you better be damn good on irons.

All in all though, I get sick of these mofo's claiming to be something they ain't. I've heard some truly face palming one's too. The Devil-Dogs, a para-group of "junior" (too young to enlist) Marines. SEAL-Rangers, Marine-Rangers, and, ...hold your breakfast down, Delta-SEALs (a special unit within the SEALS...NOT Army).

 

[diverdon]

So Orkan, for those who can fax you a DD-214 what kind of discount can you offer on a TT?

 

[tomcfc11]

Maybe it was Casey Ryeback, chef extraordinaire.

for the win


this one made me laugh

 

[Deleted member 10043]

Why would he jump out of a helicopter??? Lol

Because it is available.

 

[Deleted member 10043]

There are also a lot of dumbasses that exaggerate their military service.

 

[Jeffd]

Hope he is not right next to me at the range! LOL

 

[Pro517]

Just to be completely clear...I posted a thread looking for a TT in MOA, but it was NOT me in this phone call!! Lol

 

[ICU22250]

I seen your post and it had me thinking... Lol... Sorry man.. Hey, what unit were you with?

 

[JayOpticspecialist]

that isn't right.some lines shouldn't be crossed

 

[CSTactical]

Haha, no it wasn't

Was not smart/fortunate enough to serve in the military. I do, however, have immense respect for those that have or currently do!

 

[CBDR]

I'm sure his fakebook page can validate all his bullshit. Yep still living in moms basement. Should have asked him what his 5th general order was.
Quitters and spitters.

 

[42769vette]

I had a guy call me last year looking for a "military discount" on scopes. He just didn't sound right, and I as what his MOS was. He informed me he was a marine for 15 years, and they never issued him one.

 

[mewillis]

I'm surprised anyone is surprised? It's the easiest scam to pull and ride the wave of deception in the world!! nobody wants to be themselves anymore.

 

[lash]

We get an inordinate number of "ex marine snipers" coming through our long range practices here in swampy nowheresville Florida that have trouble getting their rifle and scope past 575 yards.

I personally could care less what you say that you are or can do. The proof is there in your shooting. If you have trouble making impacts, I'll help you within the ability of you and your equipment.

And as much as true stolen valor irritates me as a man of my word, I have not served and cannot/will not attempt to question anyone regarding their claims. I have no real basis.

 

[chorizo]

As a retired Marine, I hear a lot about "Ex Marine snipers" It would seem that we had Battalions and Battalions of them. Most of them are Ex Recon also...............

I always wonder why they take honorable service, no matter what they did, and degrade it with exaggeration.

Really? The snowflake is a dirtbag! Period!
