    Canadian cf-18 crash pictures

    Believe it or not, the ejection seat DOES work at low altitude. The pilot walked away, but is afraid to show his head in the mess! Something to do about jokes at his expense... and failing to return equipment in the same condition in which it was signed out. The way I see it, any landing...

    Gun Truck Guns

    There is a company up in Winnipeg Canada, which is now redoing Sten and Stirling 9mm SMGs. Cost will determine which model you want. They make inert replicas, right up to semi auto SMG (but only with a 10 Rnd Mag... CDN gun laws....) Try this link, but remember, we have goofy gun laws up here...

    Repairing a radiator leak

    Get it good and clean, and very dry. If you are near other seams which could let go, you can use a heat sink (LG chunk of metal with a damp cloth on the other side of it). I always use a propane torch, with a soldering tip. If needed, I can post a picture. The key is to get the heat to the...

    Army CB by Cobra

    Almost any HAM can fix that for you! Just wait for a local one to respond to your request.

    So how do you guys take the top off?

    Undo the bra strap.... oops, sorry wrong thread! Up here, we have a lot of experience with removing caps. canopies, and boats. The hard top should come off with the help of soldier "B" If he is not available, or just unreliable, What we normally do, is rig a sling with a block and tackle, in a...

    PNW-2010-Second Annual Chehalis River Valley MV Convoy/Camp-Out

    I want to thank the lot of you, for posting the pictures, and the video. This run is still on my "Must Do List!" I am only the keeper of the M-135, and I think that she would be really punished by the run down there, but I'm going to try to fire up the bike, and get down there for the next one...

    Wondering about any kind of military wave runner

    I am pretty sure that the CF used them (JTF-2) , when we could sneak it under the budget wire!

    m211 parts

    Try to sell it as a whole unit, before you part it or melt it. A lot of the M211's had trannys from CCKWs dropped in. As for whether or not the dump was original, this is not The Pebble Beach Concours, And "Numbers Matching" really means nothing here. As long as the price is right, maybe someone...

    If the guns are a part of your display, why not? We allow the gun trucks.

    Couple of Fire Dept HMMWV pics

    Can you take a couple of pics of the old girl that was sitting beside the HMMWV? I wouldn't mind seeing a shot of the new truck as well.

    Rules Concerning Posts About Guns

    There are gun sites, and there are truck sites. I use my guns on the range, and upon criminals, stupid enough to make me use them, in my lawful profession. This green truck site is the best one that I have ever been lucky enough to stumble across. There is no way that I will do anything to...

    M54 negotiating the village

    So what is with the siren in the background? What did you do? It is really nice to get the POV from your beast, and also to see your town. Thanks for posting!

    wig wags on a Deuce Fire Truck

    A normal Wig Wag unit has built in diodes. It won't work otherwise, unless it incorporates a real expensive relay. Either way, your wiring harness has to undergo mjaor surgery. Done incorrectly.... keep the extinguisher handy. This may also change your fording capability, depending upon your...

    Did I just say that I would sell my 109?

    Just one question? Are you going to park it on the campanion door, just like your avitar? If so, please let it go to a more loving home! Seriously, I can hardly wait to see the tread of your camper conversion. Good luck, and post soon!
