I wonder if this code change is a typo somewhere in the system by a low level clerk (3 instead of a 6) or a high level order for some nefarious reason?
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
From what I'm gathering from the posters here is that this will stop stuff from going to GL and what is in GL's hands before the change is safe (for now). Looks like the change happened around the first of the year and GL has sold code 3 stuff since then so I don't think it has affected the current GL inventory.Has anyone had an EUC approved for one of these cat 3 items since Jan1st 2009? I am waiting for a deuce EUC to clear and I am now sweating bullets.
What will happen to these cat 3 vehicles?

I don't know if anyone's brought this up, but has anyone considered that there might have been a credible threat from a group using surplus MVs to gain access to an installation?
That's usually their goal if it's a suicide attack.If you are going to drive onto a military base.....with ill intentions....you will die
I'm not giving away the farm by saying that there are installations that have individual targets of strategic or psychological value. If the FBI or other IC agency happened across information that lead them to believe that surplus MVs were part of a plot, then I could see them running to change the disposition of the vehicles.And as spread out as everything is, I really dont think that you could do too much damage anyway.
Or, it could be just some folks that can't conceive of why we'd want to own 'em. Hey, they're happy in their Lexus SUV and they think we should be too.
....... Lobbyists and lawyers aren't cheap. A well organized fund raising effort and a public relations program would be in order. We can't let any bad PR taint the hobby and therefore the effort......
Who can do this? Who has the personality, intelligence, time, patience, charisma and access to the right people and can use those things to get this done?
Anything the NRA would be interested in hasn't been allowed out of Gov. hands in a long time. While I am a NRA member I don't think they would care about MVs. They've got their hands full with second amendment matters at the present time.Has anything changed with classification of surplus weapons/gear/accessories? Perhaps the NRA would have an interest in the changes?
