This was by design. -NCS The past few weeks have been intense on this end. Back to back classes packed over capacity, long hours on …
This originally appeared on American Partisan. Both of those VSKAs have been run hard and put up wet, used as training rifles for students in class both in the AK courses and as OPFOR weapons. They're continuing to perform well. -NCS A search for Century Arms online can certainly garner some interesting points. They get …
So there you are…caught at the street protest with your boys and the Commies are a little too close for comfort. Unbeknownst to you, you’re all alone in a high threat environment and out of the blue you find yourself knocked on your ass with a handful of thugs looking to make the next Jackson …
So you’re out there on a patrol, the commo window is open and you need to make a Cyril Report back to your TOC. Your RTO sets up the yagi getting ready to make contact, checking and rechecking the azimuth. He glosses back over the transmit and receive frequencies to make sure everything is set, …
