Stop plane around

 

All of a sudden you're all plane experts

 

Now you're just winging it

 

By far, my favorite US aircraft from WWII.

 

Very few of those remaining.
I find only one flight worthy listed.
Good guess though

 

Gotta be the P38 for me. But aesthetically the ME-109 is hard to beat for me. Zee Germans had some pretty neat camo patterns they used on their aircraft.

 

Finally had a chance to get my 1917 Enfield I had rebarreled out to the range. Was shooting at 200 yards prone with just a sling for support.


Group circled in red was the last time I adjusted the sights. Does pretty good.

 

Ive always liked the bomber aircraft of WWII, all the stories about the beatings they could take and still make it back to base. When I was a kid I used to build the model airplanes you could buy at the hobby store, had a big case full of those pricy Testors paints for models

B-17 was a beautiful machine

 

This one was lent to China during WW2. Can tell that because they were famous for grinding all the US markings off and adding their own serial number. They counterbored the barrel about 4" below the front sight and what was left of the bore was dang near smooth and only 2 groove. I got it cheap at a pawn shop and had a new barrel put on right away. Shoots great for a fraction of what most 1917's cost.

 

That stupid Wrangler I posted over a month ago, where the guy just got it and came looking at our Jeeps, just came in to order one.

 

wow the moon is so big

 

Noice rotopax and stickies

 

At least it's not angry

 

Probably doesn't even have a "the mountains are calling and I must go" sticker on the back

 

Or the "don't follow me you won't make it" decal

Yeah that guys gonna get a visit from CPS real soon lmao

 

I ordered my new one from the CMP. Its a criterion 4 groove. Had a friend do it that had a lathe and could make a relief cut to help relieve the tension against the receiver.
