Back Again!
Been a long time since I'v had time to post anything here. Well for starters I'm in the US Coast Guard now. Gradutated boot camp on 28DEC07 and I am currently serving on WLM-554; USCGC Marcus Hanna. We're a Bouy Tender in South Portland, ME. Pretty good gig going on. Get to go home on a regular basis still and get some time with the family and pull some triggers in the ol' makeshift range I got.
I'v just gotten engaged to my HS sweetheart, Sophie on March 22nd and we are in the proccess of planning the next steps within the year. I'm applying for Gunner's Mate A school the end of the year.
I'v been crusing around in my new 07 Jeep Libery. I'll post pics ASAP.
As far as my usual gun blogging goes I'v converted my Armalite/Bushmaster M4gery to a Gas Piston using the ARES DEFENSE conversion kit. I love the M4gery now. It's much eassier to maintain and just as fun to shoot as ever. In addition, my SKS got a Tapco T-6 stock now, keeping the fixed magazine to comply with CT laws. It's a lot of fun; the fiance' keeps calling it her rifle... :)
Fine by me, I got my AR15 to hold me over! I'm looking at doing some projects in a while. I'm considering getting a Weaver scout mount for the Mosin-Nagant M44 and actually putting an EOTech Holosight on it. Why? Because I can. It's a very different concept but I think it would make for a neat 300 yard powerhouse of a rifle. May even be a sweet little deer rig. I'v also purchased a Lee Enfield No.4 MK. 1 and a Pardner Protector 12 gauge shotgun since my last post.
In the gaming department there are a few zombie games in developement such as Left 4 Dead, Dead Frontier, and Z-Day Online. The group I am in, the Zulu Aid Station Security Team stems from the Zulu Aid Station Network I made for a game earlier. It was a group dedicated to helping fellow players by establishing M*A*S*H* style units within the game. We may bring it back for Z-Day and may be Dead Frontier. I also finally bought Pirates of the Burning Sea; a game I'v been waiting for over 5 years now. Now I get to get underway right from the comfort of my own home (well, barracks when I'm in South Portland...).
All in all I should be posting much more often, keep an eye here for updates!!
Take care all...
