    The war camel story reminds me of another interesting fact. It was the Turks that first used sheep intestines as condoms. It was the Europeans that perfected the practice by removing the intestines from the sheep first.

    I think it's the Hi-Point of the desert

    I think mine is a 2006 or 7. It works great. But they did change the sizes. from Jumping Jack. We changed the width in 2009 and the length in 2016.

    what makes me think it is Ottoman is the rear peep sight and the double front post sights. And they used matchlocks for a couple hundred years, from what I gather. the pictures do not show the sights very well. I will take more pictures tonight

    Why did Constantinople get the works? That's nobody's business but the Turks...

    I have an older one and they did change the deck rails. The one I have has straight rails and they changed them to have flared out rails to take longer/wider ATV?UTVs. Not sure what year they changed them though.

    What is the difference between the Pro-Pak® and Standard Adventure Meal™ Pouches? We’ve reformulated and repackaged our 2020 Pro-Pak® line to align with military specifications for Meals Cold Weather (MCW). Our new Pro-Paks contain one serving, have higher protein, and focused calories than our Standard Adventure Meal™ Pouches. These Pro-Paks can be identified by a red Pro-Pak® badge on the front of the pouch and have the same 30-year shelf life from date of manufacture as Adventure Meal™ pouches, with the exception of ice cream products. Previous to this, the difference between our Pro-Paks and Standard Adventure Meal™ Pouches were that Pro-Paks generally held slightly less food, but this varied from recipe to recipe. These older Pro-Paks® were also vacuum packed to prevent expansion at high altitude and to be as compact as possible. Our previous vacuum sealed Pro-Paks also had a 30-year shelf life from date of manufacture.

    I have had both the single serving and the double. I always find a way to eat the double though the single serving would have been plenty. The only difference is the amount of food in the bag and the vacuum packaging.

    I get it. They changed the packaging but didn't change the description/marketing info. If you plan your trip based off of a certain amount of weight/space/quantity of food per package and they ship you something different, I get being disappointed. Eating 2 servings out of one bag would make for an awkward dinner with your hunting buddy.

    That is correct. Cool pistol, great mechanical design, worthless cartridge. I think it was a 45cal slug traveling at 450fps.

    Just found my ammo collection in my desk at work. With the ammo craze I figured someone would need these and I could pay off my house. In this collection I have 25-06, .30 carbine, 41mag, .357, .38spl, .556 and 22lr. and some once fired 300blk brass. Make an offer, only serious offers rejected!!!

    not sure on the heat sealing but I believe the blackout cases might be heat seeking.

    Ammo collection for sale

    years ago a customer brought in a small bag of "bullets" that she found at her dad's place. I think I added the 556 and the 22lr from a range bag I emptied.

    Ammo collection for sale

    from what I see offered I believe .556 and 9mm are probably going to be obsolete soon.
