you seem upset
You know people in the military still get the weekends off right? and hell when you're not in the field you usually do get some free time. You'd be surprised what you can get done in the military if you just don't sit in the barracks all the time drinking and playing video games.
Didn't serve, huh? If he signed up as infantry, he has plenty of time to waste doing w/e in between motorpool mondays and whatever hey-you tasks he can duck. I'll take his gay LARPing videos over torturing cats, like they recently caught Joes doing out at Schofield Barracks.
he's enlisted to become a helo pilot
Street to Seat? Didn't they bump up the ADOS to be 10 years a little while back? And didn't they also change it so that flight school time didn't count as TIG anymore? Flight WO has become a much more shitty deal with the changes over the past two years, imo. Regardless, from what I've heard, there are massive multi-month delays from the backlog for flight school, so Oxide is likely just getting paid to sit around and wait while waiting for his slot.
Like the others said non-deployed mil get weekends and "normal" time off. It's pretty common for non senior Army guys to do 0630-0800 PT at your unit (with a near mandatory requirement of actually being there 5-20 mins prior), 0900 report for beginning of duty day, 1130-1300 lunch, and 1700/1800 dismissal for units not doing anything particularly rushed between field exercises/deployments plus weekends off if you don't have any special extra duty assigned periodically. If you're chair force they don't even have unit PT and they are just 9-5. If you just pack your lunch and eat it in a few minutes you end up with an hour to do some extra shit on slow days, too. People of course always find ways to sham out of work with fake appointments, pretending they're still doing something that they've already finished, and so on. Take a look at GT and Oxide who frequently have people helping them out in their vids all the time. GT for instance will just show up and do multiple videos in a single session over a weekend day and in that Oxide video he basically has people doing the logistics and indexing of info for him for free.
Nailed it.
I'll make sure to ask for your permission next time so we don't have to clutter the high quality nature of this guntuber autism thread with multiple posts of yours on your reaction to the unentertaining discord autism drama.
I'm sure all that tinware will do him a lot of good when he gets IEDd driving home from a long day of stepping. Or catches a round of 30-06 to the gut as he leaves the house in the morning.
Spot on. That's what the people even on the farms who say "lol the government will just drone strike you regardless of your guns". Drone operators have names, addresses, and a route to work.
Any attempt by the US government at mass seizure of arms would end up with big chunks of country looking like South Armagh in the late 80s/early 90s, but turned up to 11. Northern Ireland hadn't had anything like the culture of private firearms ownership the US has, and yet they completely denied the British Army the use of the road network, to the point that they could only resupply outposts by helicopter.
Being a sarcastic unfunny faggot doesn't make you any less of a faggot. Go outside.
I still don't fully understand why they didn't just go with an AR10 in a fancy round but I'm also not an engineer or a procurement officer.
They did. The gun is essentially a piston AR-10 chambered for the fancy new round on a lower with a PDQ lever, an ambi safety, and an ambi mag catch installed. All the magic is in the upper.
Obviously I can't prove anything but my personal theory is that they know trying to adopt an old rifle with a new caliber or a new rifle with an old caliber will lead to problems, they want to procure something made from scratch to make sure nobody's looking over their shoulders and try to turbofuck the project with silly ideas.
