The kind of weaponry we have in mind isn't stuff to learn on, but I'm sure if the Do actually came to fruition I could teach you on the smaller stuff.

I'm 50-50 on this. If it were part of a Ted Nugent-esque package where you eat what you kill, I'd do it. It would certainly be the ultimate in freshness. But I wouldn't just for the sheer fun of blowing away a living thing. (Maybe that last part is poorly worded....)

I knew guys who were contractors for the companies that manufactured the shoulder-fired missiles that the Army and Marines use. Their favorite way to function check the lot of missile kits that got shipped to the desert was to take out a camel.

My wish list of the big hardware is easy: MP5, Uzi, AK, M60, M249.
