Friend won't shoot .223.....???

In this case, clearly, what you have to do is shoot your friend with a .510 DTC or a .416. He will then see the error of his ways.

I think you should make one of those funny mono-tone sounding videos where you type the text and then those cartoon characters act it out. You know the ones that keep getting deleted from calguns because they often swear? I can't think of the name, but I'd love to see one created for exactly just this scenario. Maybe if I get a little down time I'll try and make one a little later.

I wondered where that thread went, been looking for that vid.

So if his life is in jeopardy and only .223 ammo is at hand, he'd prefer death?

[Divernhunter]

One word---Retard----Well maybe that is a bit harsh. If he only shoots 5.56 then maybe he will send my any 223 he gets????

[Rob454]

LOL. Your buddy sounds like my buddy. he only used super unleaded cause it gives him more HP. ( he drives a Honda.) Then again if I owned a Honda I would need all the HP I could get.

He also scoffed at steel cased ammo and said his AR had problems with it. It all started when I offered to go half on a case Tula .223.

I told him his extractor needed to be beefed up in regards to his FTE with steel cased ammo. He shrugged it off and said "well I don't shoot .223 ***** civilian stuff anyways"
I ended that convo realizing his attitude about it and changed the subject to "So any good deals at the gun show?"

Try this...it's my first attempt

Thats funny. He has a civilian model AR, buying ammo from a civilian store, (as far as I am aware you can't buy ammo on post) and claims he won't run civilian stuff through his weapon.....He has limited himself severly....only military targets too I pressume...

[ireload]

My question to you L4D:

1. Has he handled and fired a gun before he joined the service?

2. Is he heavy into video games like Spec Ops?

3. Does his parents own guns?

4. What branch of the military is he in?

Yes I'm having a Dr. Phil moment here......

He might grow up some day? might! I have a son-in-law the same way he did three or four tours in Iraq.Marines. and everything is by the # I just ignore him and he get's really pissed. He went straght in to the Police force and is working the worst division in LA and still everythings by #'s so as you could guess he don't visit me much anymore. Thank God!

[Maddog5150]

I have a buddy who's in the service and says he won't shoot .223 and only 5.56 because .223 is ***** civilian stuff.

I really had no response for such (imo) an asinine comment.
Can someone help me understand his sentiment on this?

Tell your friend to stop being a poug and shoot

[ir0nclash86]

I have a friend that's the same as yours. We were talking about handgun ammunition and I mentioned that I don't buy my ammo from gun stores. I told him I just buy them at Walmart. He starts laughing hysterically and calling me a "dumb*ss stupid motherf*cker" for buying POS Walmart ammunition. I told him that Walmart sells the same ammo as Turners but for significantly cheaper. Sh*t goes in one ear and out the other with him though. He thinks the ammo at Walmart is like store brand generic ammo even though I tell him it's Federal, Winchester, etc lol. He refuses to step foot in a Walmart to this day. Lol he's one ignorant SOB

I have a friend ... starts laughing hysterically and calling me a "dumb*ss stupid motherf*cker"

He's a friend?!

[ir0nclash86]

He's a friend?!

Yeah he's an Army buddy I deployed with. We always call eachother foul names so It's no biggy. He's just really hard headed sometimes.
