If i join the Coast Guard... 1)Will I be deployed? 2)What types of jobs could i have after I am out? 1 - Coasties can be deployed overseas. There are many water-borne missions that the Navy is simply not qualified to do.

Can anyone in the Army tell me why you get asked about assignment preferences if they're just ignored anyway? Almost all troops (and 100% of new recruits) think asking for a specific post means only that post. They don't realize that PERSCOM runs on the "close enough is good enough" principal. Here's how it works: Let's say you request Fort Sam Houston (San Antonio, TX). PERSCOM will actually look to see if your MOS is open (and in your pay grade) at Fort Sham for the time period you're anticipated...

Answer to:
The US Senate defeated a Republican bid to expand gun ownership rights by letting people carry concealed weapons across state lines. Does pro gun trump state's rights in your mind? See LINK: Nope. State policy is an internal matter. The problem with a national carry law is that it does not establish minimum standards for getting the license. Some states require class time, range time, and qualifying shooting scores. Others require a short class and that the check clears. The current system where states consult each other about what it takes to grant reciprocity works well...

What's the command for advancing with bayonets at the ready? Fix bayonets = attach to rifle. Charge bayonet = at the ready? Advance = Go? Bayonet charges died decades ago. Bayonets are generally used as a defensive measure (e.g. holding a position that is about to be overrun) or in limited offensive maneuvering (e.g. house-to-house fighting where the enemy could literally be on the other side of the doorway). Once the order "Fix Bayonets!" comes down, that's all there is to it.

A guy w alot of guns offered to trade a lee enfield no4 mk2 303 brit in good cond for my inexpensive 17hmr. id like to hunt deer but can't afford a deer rifle. my 17 is fun but a costly plinker. i have a 22 for plinking. what should i do? decisions... Use the #4Mk.II as a deer rifle. The .303 Brit is more than enough for medium game.

Answer to:
What is a lee enfield #4 mk2 worth in good condition? not a parker hale version. Nothing. Nada. Zip. Tell you what...send it to me and I'll dispose of it for you. Actually, a #4Mk.II is worth about $150-$250 in good condition since it was produced in smaller numbers than the Mk.I. If you have one of the rarer Irish Contract #4Mk.II rifles (only 50,000 made. Serial numbers PF309348 to PF359347) it can start at $500 and go up from there.

Is it true that the military won't accept you if you've been on any behavioral medications in the past? (anti-depressants/anything along those lines, even if it was for less than a year when you were a teenager). It really depends on how long ago it was, the reason behind the prescriptions, and how you've been since then. Use of anti-depressants is not a bar to enlistment in and of itself as they have proven to be a useful part of mental health therapy. The best bet here is to ask your recruiter and give him the details. If the use was in the distant past and you have not required their...

Answer to:
Does a magnum cartridge cause larger damage or just have more velocity to go clean through? Magnum rounds have more energy and velocity that standard rounds in the same bullet diameter. Whether they cause more damage or whether it passes through the target body depends on the type of bullet used. A FMJ magnum round could cause less physical trauma than a good hollowpoint loaded in a standard-pressure cartridge. FMJ rounds do not transfer as much of the bullet's energy into...

Answer to:
Ok, we all know muzzle energy is 1/2MV^2 but how much energy is there in the bullet spin? Consider .50BMG 650 grain at 2750 FPS with 1-15 twist. Using KE=.5MV^2, the KE of the bullet is 2268.75 ft-lbs. When the rifling is 1:15, the bullet will make a full rotation for every 15" it moves forward. That makes the the bullet spin 2,200 times per second or 132,000 RPM. Rotational energy is K = 1/2*I*w^2, where I is the moment of inertia and w is the angular velocity. w^2 in this case is (2*3.14*2200)^2=13816^2=190,881,856...

How long does the army keep an assignment on file if your in ait? Unit assignments are generally part of the permanent record, so long as it is a permanent move. TDY or other temporary assignments may be covered by orders and those may not make it into the permanent portion. This illustrates the need for you to keep all copies of orders or other paperwork you get.

Phone sex almost never pays as much as stripping but this is assuming that the girl in question can do both equally well. Stripping pay is based on how many lap dances you can sell during your shift minus the tip-out paid to the club.

You'd likely have to go to AIT to get reclas into a proper MOS.

I have a degree in Criminal Justice, with a concentration law enforcement, and I was thinking of being a MA. Good Idea? You have a BSCJ and are going enlisted in the Navy? You enter as an E-3, FYI. Law enforcement slots in the Navy exist on mostly enlisted levels and coveres the anti-terrorism/force protection portfolio you mentioned. AT/FP is not as exotic as it sounds.

Answer to:
So I have a 1917 Us mess kit, the fork knife and spoon all have minimal if not no corrosion or rust. The knife is a American cutlery co. knife from 1917. They all have a series of numbers and letters, Co. C. 320. 137. what do they mean?And total cost comb I've spotted a R.I.A WW1 mess kit fork and knife in somewhat worse condition for sale for $20, so I'd say your set would be worth about $30-$35 to a WW1 collector. Co. C means Company C, which is the second-smallest unit level in the US Army. 320 may be a reference to the 320th Infantry Regiment, which was part of the 79th Division that was formed with soldiers from Pennsylvania,...

One problem with splitting training like that is that you are very likely to lose your physical conditioning in the time between, making it all the harder on you when you hit Phase 4 in AIT.

Military: if you're a Wing Commander, are you addressed "Wing Commander Jones" or just "Commander Jones"? If you're an Air Marshal, is it "Air Marshal Smith" or "Marshal Smith"?

What regulation, milper message or army doctrine covers reenlistment for soldiers who are over weight but still pass the apft. Being overweight at the time of discharge is usually a RE-3 code, meaning that you need a waiver to re-enlist. If you are still overweight, you will need to drop the pounds to meet scale weigh-in. Tape test is generally not allowed unless your body is visibly non-fat and the tape is needed to prove it (This is a problem some body builders have had. The have a measured weight that busts the...

4 beloved characters on horseback on the edge of the woods (night with sliver of a moon). Pursued by 30 horsemen that are approx 300 yards away. Should they flee deeper into the woods, break for open ground to try and outrun, stop and fight, split up? If the pursuing party has range weapons, hit the woods. The problem here is that you would need to dismount (reduce speed to walking) and pick your way through the underbrush (speed/2) and into the trees as the canopy would block what little moonlight could come in (speed/2 for a total movement of base/4). The pursuers would get there in about 5 rounds (assuming cantering until they see you...

A question about druid spells... do I get to CHOOSE my spells at the start of every day from my available selection or do I have to stick with my current spells?

Do you prefer shooting a .223 round or a 7.62x39? Have you noticed the difference? Depends on the firearm you use. 5.56N through a M-16 felt a lot easier on my shoulder than 7.62x39 does in my SKS. The M-16 has a better recoil management system than most firearms out there, obviously.

Answer to:
My Fiance is in the marines and is currently doing his MOS school as aviation tech, electronics and maintanance. They don't really tell him much so I was wondering if anyone had a rough estimate on how long it will be? If he's at "A" School, the cadre should have a schedule showing the anticipated graduation date. Back when I was going through Army AIT, *everyone* knew their graduation date. I find it very, very hard to believe that he does not already know. Hard to believe to the point of being very suspicious.

Answer to:
I have an unquenchable desire to join the military (SEALs, specifically). I happen to think it is what God put me on this earth to do. The problem is, the last time I mentioned this to my wife, she became hysterical. How to I convince her? You won't convince her. You may get very, very grudging acceptance, but that's about it. Military life is hard on the non-serving spouse and it's especially hard on Navy and Marine spouses due to deployment issues. Army and AF don't usually get sent out for 6 months at a time every 14 months. SEALs are even more stressful for the spouse as you can get punted across the...

Must Navy SEALs use waterproof covers or do they carry firearms capable of operating after long immersion in salt water? Both, actually. Some items, like optics or laser designators, usually require some sort of waterproofing and would be carried cased. These items would be uncased when they reached land. The bulk of what SEALs carry is waterproof, including firearms. A long swim in saltwater will not affect firearms designed for marine environments. Salt water corrosion only hits hard when you take the...

So, who else thinks it's amazing that the SEALs could hit three moving targets, from a moving base, with 100% accuracy, from 79 feet away? I'm thinking about a career change. 79 feet? That's an easy shot for an experienced sniper. A rolling sea makes things a bit difficult, but in this case, steps were taken to reduce the effects of the sea. The lifeboat was under tow at the time (the Navy having offered to move the lifeboat out to calmer waters) and was in the calmer part of the destroyer's wake. This reduced the amount of pitch and roll the...

Your best bet would be to look for a NRA-certified firearms instructor. $40-$50 is about right for the average introduction class. Covers firearm safety, range safety, and basic marksmanship and usually includes use of a pistol/rifle and ammo. A more in-depth class costs around $100 but you get to shoot a broader range of calibers (.22 up to .45).

Can I legally do that? You can try anything you want, the question here is how committed are your parents to keeping you in the house. At 17, you are not an adult in the eyes of the law.

I think the key point here is whether there is a statute of limitatons for damages for this type of situation. On a side note, they should not be suing your boy at this point. He was a minor at the time of the accident and could not be sued for his action as he is not an adult...

A swath of wreckage and maybe even burned grasses, etc is much more visible to aerial searchers than a lone figure trudging in a random direction. Think about it.

Son has scars from cutting and wants to know if he would pass army physical? would they consider it a psychological problem or not since it was several years ago? Cutting is generally a sign of underlying mental issues. If your boy has been treated for his condition, is no longer on any medications, and has a note from the doc attesting to the successful completement of treatment, then it should not be too big an issue. If the recruiter or MEPS thinks it'll be an issue, they can arrange for an independent evaluation.

Each group can hand our their pamphlet's and everyone can get a clear idea of what enlistment really means. Free speech doesn't enter into it. It's a matter of private property rights and the obligations that come with accepting Federal funds.

I want to go to college after high school, but I also want to join the Marine Core. I'm not sure how to do this. I'm thinking that most people do the core first, then college. I'm not really interested in West Point or those schools. What can I do? It's called ROTC. Find a college you like that offers Marine ROTC. You can take the first 2 years of ROTC without obligation to serve. This will let you see how you like the Corps before you sign on the line and swear the oath. If you don't like the Corps, no harm done. If you do, you go contract and proceed onwards and upwards. In either case, you end up with a degree.

If a soldier signs the birth certificate and paternity papers for his son, what can the mother do to ensure her child is supported? is the child automatically counted for in his income or does he have to report the child?

Send one copy to him with a letter asking him to enroll his child in DEERS and send you proof of enrollment. Send a second copy to his commanding officer.

If a soldier signs the birth certificate and paternity papers for his son, what can the mother do to ensure her child is supported? is the child automatically counted for in his income or does he have to report the child? The Army does not look kindly upon soldiers who shirk their child support obligations. If the service member accepted legal obligation for the child, then that child may be considered his dependent and eligible for the full suite of services available to all military dependents. However, this information must be reported to the Army by the service member or by you via his commanding...

If I visited the Holodeck I would want piles of naked women stacked on top of each other, women everwhere. Is that wrong? Scott Adams, the creator of "Dilbert", once wrote that the perfection of a holodeck would spell the end of the human race because men would go in and never come out again. I recall him saying something like when you have a roomfull of Cindy Crawfords waiting to give you a nude oil massage, it's really hard to go back to reality.

I have extenuating circumstances that require me to stay in the area but I also want to enlist. You generally get to write up a wish list of where you want to be assigned. Your best bet would be to go and talk to the CO of the local stations, explain what you want to do and why, and then ask what billets they have open that you could fill.

Answer to:
I have Outstanding student loans in my name that I've taken out for my son's college education. Can I withdraw from my 401k to pay these student loans without penalty? Check the terms of your particular 401(k), but I think that educational expenses are allowed. However, I think that means you can withdraw w/o penalty to pay expenses as they come up, not to pay loans after the fact.

Answer to:
How much can I contribute to my 401K annually? How much when I'm over 50 yrs old? As of 2008, you can put in $15,000 annually. If you are 50+, you can put in an additional $5,000.

Answer to:
AS THE BENEFICIARY OF MY FATHERS 401 K, DO I HAVE TO USE THAT MONEY TO PAY HIS HOSPITAL BILLS? Check with a lawyer to be sure, but I think that you are not obligated to pay the bills he left behind with the 401(k) funds he left you. If his will directed those funds go to you, then they are separate from his estate, which is what the hospital will sue to get their money.

Answer to:

According to the calculators I've seen, you are woefully underfunded. It sounds like you've been putting in enough to get employer matching but that's it.

Answer to:
I have a 401k plan which allows me to have dividends paid out quarterly. I want to use my dividends to pay into another retirement plan or to buy a Roth IRA. Can I do this without having to pay income tax on paid dividends? Check with a tax professional, but I think that 401(k) dividends that are paid out to you and not automatically reinvested in the account is considered taxable income, even if you turn around and plop it into a Roth or other investment.

The trace amount that *might* leach out while in contact with the icing is probably so small as to be inconsequential.

Student loan forgiveness programs are in place if you complete certain programs, like Peace Corps or military service (depends on what enlistment incentives are out when you sign up.).

For plinking, I'd take the Ruger 10/22 or the Marlin Model 60. For general purpose use (medium game hunting, plinking, SHTF defense), I'd recommend the SKS.

In your opinion, what is the best brand and caliber, handgun ammunition for personal protection. The best caliber is the biggest one you can shoot comfortably for a long period of time. If you don't like shooting it, you will not practice enough to be proficient with it. Shot placement is what decides gunfights. A .22LR in the heart beats a .45 hit to the lower leg, for example. For ammuntition, any modern hollowpoint will do. You will have to try several different brands to see...

Answer to:
During training, can you wear contact lenses in the Marines/National Guard/Army/. You weren't allowed to do so when I was last in Basic ('91). There is too much that goes on that can get crub in your eyes to allow contacts to be used. You do NOT want to wear contacts when you go through the gas mask training room. CS gas is bad enough without it settling into the permeable surface of a contact lens.

What would happen if a child loaded a lead pellet (pointed type) in an AirSoft gun & tried to shoot it? Might it dislodge & shoot? My cat was killed by a lead pellet (on our property) at the same time the nearby neighbor kids were playing with an AirSoft. Byron is slightly wrong, as is JRW. Airsoft guns are 6mm and can have muzzle velocities as high as 500 fps, though that top end is usually from the higher-end, more expensive rifles. The typical airsoft gun from Walmart pushes about 350 fps, which is the same as a Red Ryder BB gun. Air rifles come in .177, .20, .22, and .25 calibers and can thump out pellets as fast as 1000 fps for the...

You are a U.S. Army or Marine Sniper, you got Osama Bin Laden in the sights, can you pull the trigger? Only if I was given the order allowing me to shoot on sight. The sniper is a tool of both tactical and strategic combat. There are times when you may have the target in your sights, but the goal of winning the war would be best served by letting the target live until a time when his sudden, messy death would cause maximum disruption to the enemy's war plans.

Can my brother buy a guage shotgun even if he has a felony in texas If he was convicted of a felony in any US state (and even in some foreign countries), Federal law states he cannot possess or purchase any firearm, except for certain relics made before the 1890s and firearms that use black powder as the propellant (muzzle loaders, etc).

I laserbore sighted my ar-15 in at 50yds before firing. when I shot, it went almost 2 feet 2 high at 50yds. I lowered the elevation all the way down and it still didnt help. Still way 2 high. What is the problem? I used to put 4in patterns at 100 easy. Did you change the ammo you've been using? That often accounts for changes in POI. The AR-15 family generally sets battlesight zero at 25 yards. A AR-15 set this way shoots about 1' high at 50 yards, hits at POA at 200 yards, and about 1.5' low at 300 yards. It's possible that you used the laserbore equipment incorrectly, resulting in the situation you describe. ...

Russia is feeling the hit from dropping oil prices and the effects of the global economioc meltdown and really can't afford more than posturing for the near term.

During this hiatus, Marvel Comics stepped in and trademarked the book name "Captain Marvel", which prevents anyone else from publishing a book (comic or otherwise) with that title.

Why do so many people think that the Raven P-25 is a sorry gun? My mother gave me hers about 7 years ago. I still only have the original magazine. Its not my #1 choice for carry, but it has never gave me a problem. Even with "cheap" ammo. There are several reasons: 1 - The .25 ACP is a pretty pathetic round. You get better performance from a hypervelocity .22LR hollowpoint. Some shooters report that even the best .25 is not as reliable in ignition as the most common .22LR. 2 - The Raven is a limited lifespan pistol. This is due to the composition of the metal used in the slide and frame. The metal is a zinc alloy that...

Is the bullet drop on a mosin nagant 91/30 at 1000 yards really 30 feet? If so what would the drop be on a ar-15 carbine at 1000 yards with permium .223 ammo? MN 91/30 dropping 25'-30' at 1000 yards sounds about right from what I can find. The last table I could find on 5.56N ballistics stopped at 800 yards and showed a 33' drop when fired from a M16-A1. Given the performance loss you get with an M4, I'd guess a drop of another 3' or so at 800. In short, when popping targets at long range, don't use a M4.

Federal law allows adults 18 or older to buy rifles and shotguns. You must be 21 or older to buy a handgun. NJ requires you to obtain a Firearm ID card to buy rifles and shotguns. You need a Pistol Permit to buy handguns.

How does the silencer on a gun silence the shot? A silencer has a series of expansion chambers that trap the gases that follow a bullet out of the barrel. Instead of the gas and sound spewing out normally, the chambers hold the gas and sound back until the bullet clears the silencer. Once it clears, the gas spits out at a much slower rate, which is not enough to cause the loud BANG you expect. Truth be told, you can't fully suppress...

You can only get a boresight done without going somewhere to shoot in the scope. To boresight a scope, set up a target at the engagement range to which you want to set the scope. Remove the lower receiver and clamp the upper receiver to a firmly anchored base. I suggest using a plumb line to make sure your upper is true vertical and the scope's crosshairs are also true vertical. ...

I have asked and heard great asnwers on what kinds of pistols people recomend, but I would like to know. What the major differences in range of use, and ease of use when it comes to automatice, and revolvers? Revolvers are the original point-and-click device. The rounds are not subject to the whims of a magazine. Dud rounds (a rarity, but they are out there) are no problem as you just pull the trigger again to rotate the cylinder and present a new round. Safety checks are easier as you just swing out the cylinder to see if it is loaded. Revolvers are more capable of chambering more powerful...

Dunno why your rangemaster won't allow it. The .357Sig was designed to replicate the performance of the .357 Magnum in a more workable semi-auto pistol package. The .357Sig does have a flatter trajectory than other calibers close to it's size,...

If I enter the Air Force as an E-3, how long will it take for me to qualify to move off base?

Answer to:
Do you lose power in a Co2 powered BB or Airsoft pistol if you leave the Co2 Cartridge in the gun? Depends on how long it's left there and the condition of the pistol. One with a good seal should hold pressure for a couple of weeks at least. No seal is perfect, though, and all pressurized systems will lose pressure eventually.

When the mobs came to a section of town held by determined Korean shopkeeprs, they probably outnumbered the businessmen 10+ to 1, yet the Koreans...

I've recently aquired a 1904 luger, .30 cal, all serial numbers match, serial number under #10,000 , fully functional, mint condition with original leather holster (in excellent condition). I wonder how much it's worth? You've got an interesting bit of history. The Luger you have is offically chambered in 7.65 Parabellum (7.65mmx23mm), which is called .30 Luger in the US. The pistol was adopted as the official Swiss Army sidearm in 1900 but did not do well when Luger tried offering it to other militaries. He redesigned the pistol in 1904 to take the 9mm Parabellum cartridge and the rest is history. ...

Once more my question. How long does it need, till a clit gets stiff. In menas the time by beginning of sexual arousal till the fill size and stiffness of the clitoris. Jeez, there is no hard-and-fast rule to use here. Sexual response depends on lot of variables, many of which are not controllable by either the guy or girl. When mentally primed and in great health, a girl can go from zero to sexy in a few minutes. It could take an hour if she's preoccupied with other things in her mind or if she is tired, etc.

Where else (in addition to Earth) might life reside within our solar system? (this is a serious question - please explain your answer) Impossible to answer since one has to assume that if life is possible off of Earth that the organism would have to be able to survive in conditions far outside the narrow envelope humans do. There are countless combinations of environment within the Solar System, so even a limited inventory of possible locations is pretty much out of the question.

Most of what one hears on this topic is anecdotal, stories passed around the gun store. Given the automated process used to make commercial ammo, I'd say that the...

Answer to:
What is the value on a ar-15 used with 90 round drum and 3 30 round clips It depends on the condition of the rifle (NRA Excellent, etc), the manufacturer (Colt, Century Arms, etc), and other factors (flattop, caliber, etc). A new 90-round drum can be had for about $130. 30-round mags can be found for $20+. So, you have almost $200 in magazines alone. The rifle may go for as little as $600. Need more info to be sure.

You are legally obligated to sell the item to the buyer unless you made it clear during the negotiations that there were clauses that could allow a 3rd party (your hubby) to negate the sale.

How come when a girl gains weight her boobs get bigger, but when a guy gains weight his package is the same? Boobs have a layer of fat inside of them, making them a natural place for fat to grow when a woman gains weight. There is very almost no fat in a guy's package, so fat deposits there do not grow the way a man's boobs will grow when he gains weight.

How can someone get pregnant when they had a tubal ligation? Tubal ligation has a published failure rate of about 0.2% to 1.0%. Studies show that lowest failure rate is generally for the first year or so with the failure rate increasing as time goes by due to the chance of the severed fallopian tube re-establishing connection with the uterus in some way. The only 100% effective birth control procedures are removal of the testicles or the uterus.

Is there certain regulations that gives guidlines on how many weekends/after duty hours you can keep a soldier away from his family. Working and training purposes only. Not talking about disciplinary punishment. Nope. As a member of the armed forces, you surrender control of your life. If your commanding officer says you need to stay on post for some duty-related purpose, then you stay. If you want time off, then use your leave time. That's what it's for. If you think there is a problem with your CO and you have an extraordinary need to see family, go see the Chaplain.

The more compressed it is as it leaves, the greater the shot pellet density at a given range (more pellets in a smaller volume of space).

Your best bet would be to search or post a wanted ad on the firearm auction sites, like AuctionArms.com or GunBroker.com and see what comes up.
