Big Red is spending his detention productively.

Did he get a timeout?

Did he get a timeout?

About a month ago he got a 6 month timeout.

No one that saw it has offered any details, as it should be. No one that saw it has even indicated they did see it. Maybe it wasn’t public. No one knows, except his last post is fascinatingly cryptic. Like he knew.

Anyway, this has to be the slowest traveling news around here ever, which is interesting in and of itself. But I’m easily entertained, I suppose.

He told KiA that Coasties are better than Air Force.

I always found the Demo Ranch guy irritating. I guess I'm too old to appreciate the humor.

I find it childish and somewhat boring anymore.

I did from the first time I ever saw him.

He used to do ballistic tests and test things vs different metals etc I don't mind that.

Definitely immature but it is family friendly… he is a family gun car guy… my kids really like him and Kentucky ballistics

 

[ancjr]

I can watch selections from Kentucky Ballistics... IV8888 is about as goofy as I can take on a consistent basis.

Well ….. kentucky is MUCH more immature lol but if goofy makes my kid watch gun stuff with me ? I’m good with that. Met both of them and they both seem like stand up guys.

No doubt. I'm not calling their value into question at all. Just saying it ain't my flavor.

Truth hurts?

 

[flatlander]

So who is the local guy that spent massive $$ at Michiana for the non functioning rounds but very cool pistols?

 

[Cameramonkey]

Truth hurts?

If he sees that, he's gonna ban you too!

I think we're done here.

We have a simple rule, if you have never served in the military you may not poke fun at any service. We can poke fun with each other but no one else. It’s a very special family.

Sorry hard to keep up around here sometimes lol

$200 a pop kinda dimmed my enthusiasm for it.

it was still sorta pricey when new, but it was a fraction its current price.

The way it works, is all the rocket nozzles are canted so that spin is induced from the nozzles.
The issue is, there was a run of ammo back in the day where someone messed up on the nozzles.
I imagine with modern techniques it could be made more reliable.. if it wasn't already a flawed concept.

SOG actually tested the things in Vietnam. The humidity played hell with the rockets, and the lack of any point blank lethality was a no go.

I am not joking, if you put your finger in the muzzle, you might get burnt... but it would just sit there and push against your finger.

Very cool and imaginative concept. Too bad there isn't enough interest for aftermarket manufacture of the rounds though. If they were available, it would be a fun range toy to have.
