The images aren't the best. The top one is a Colt with an M4 upper (from Tommy at GPSS). It has an RRA collapsible stock, an EOTech 512 AA, and an ARMS #40 flip up sight. The bottom rifle is a Bushmaster with a Colt upper and the LE entry stock from J&T Distributing.   |

Damn Good looking Rifles 82nd.[beer] The top one is exactly the look I am going after except I am going to put the Tactical Flash Light on it. I think I am going with the Sure Fire with the push button switch on the end cap. Wait a minute! The Colt on the top is that the one you were going to sell me.[}:D] |

Hey 82nd. I was 11b in Aco 3/505 from 88-92. Where you there when the M4's were issued? Do you know what accessories were specifically issued to the 82nd? Did you get a chance to use the LBV's. We were using the old y-harness and belt(LBE). When we jumped we unbuckled the LBE and slid it down our hips to fit(under/behind) the chute harness. What about the belts attached to the LBV's? What was jumping SOP for equipment? Thanks |

I didn't get a chance to play with the new fangled gear. |

Hey Chup, your name sounds very familiar. What company were you with on sand hill? What company were you with in the 507th? Maybe we trained at the same time. I was C co. 4/30th on Sand Hill. And I was in A co. in the 507th. Maybe we went to Ranger school together? I'm not sure. |

I chickened out of RIP and went straight to the 82nd after ABN School. Never went to Ranger School. But I was in Echo 4/30. It was end of Aug. thru Dec.(1988) ABN School was in Jan. I kinda regret not going to RIP sometimes. I got to go to Panama and Desert Storm though. I have much respect for you guys that were in the Rangers Bat's. Hoohah. |

Quoted: How does the arms 40 co exist with the eotech thats the set up I am building right now. DOes the front site post get in the way Oh man, it works perfectly. The front sight post is no hindrance at all. I bought both the GG&G BUIS and the ARMS #40 - I mounted them and decided to keep the ARMS and sell the GG&G. There was nothing wrong with the GG&G, its just that the ARMS seemed to fit my needs more. Personal preference kinda thing. You're going to really like that set up. I feel like a spoiled kid after sinking about 600 rds through her - it was a literal blast. I couldn't be happier. |
No kidding - the very first things I secured were my weapons, ammo, and vehicle. Ended up being the only things I kept - but that's OK. I got the most important things.  |
