Hope the dust cover was closed. :jester:
Somebody needs to practice rocket drills :laugh:
Good thing he is using PMags :dirol:.
I wasn’t aware that the Taliban have been maneuvering armored vehicles to within 400m of friendly troops, otherwise that’s a bit of a waste of an AT-4
.
I hope the 203 gunner clears the debris from his tube before trying to launch some gold death :fie:.
Ah hell, it’s a good pic of brass and links getting jiggy with a couple M4s I guess :dance3:.
“…now where did I put that M4? Anybody seen my M4?!”
“Back blast area clear!”…Well I guess it is now.
It’s attitudes like yours that had me humping a CLU all over the place with no Javelin…
Kinda looks like there is another rifle at his feet is that a barrel pocking out?

Must have been a technical:no::laugh:
That sucks. Kinda helps to have an arrow for that bow if ya know what I mean.
That would make a really good Aflac commercial.

LOL - that is a great shot. Ya gotta do what ya gotta do to get the job done.
Although when I see that carbine flying through the air, I can just hear one of my former platoon sergeants’ voice in my head:
"Where the bleep is your bleeping weapon, you bleeping idiot!?!
Ah - good times. ![]()
Now that is how you do a dust test:jester:
Next question is that a Devil Dog?

Regarding the antiarmor comment, isn’t the AT-4 used against field fortifications and other strong positions pretty routinely? Not like they have to buy them.

Yeah, me and my stupid appropriate utilization of tax-paid resources. :lol:
Used? Yes.
Effectivelly? Eh. . .
It is better than nothing, but generally better options exist. Without a viable armor threat, there really isn’t any loss in trying it out . . . unless you forgot to sling your M4 :p.
I have an extra poetic MSG instructor that would love the chance to catch someone’s M4 blown across the way. It would be epic.
I think that the Taliban came out with that new Allah armor. It will protect you if god wills it.
Yep sure does most have been very tired last night :lazy2:
If you got it, use it.
Nice pic. ![]()
Even though the weapons in the back blast weren’t secured, and it makes me cry to see them get tossed around like that, this picture gave me a little chubby. . .
I bet that’s a moral buster shot more than anything else. Nothing says “Stay in your cave” like an AT-4.
