He even had a prototype bazooka.
That's just a few of the machine guns, I didn't even get to the pistols
Ooooh
Man I'm in heaven here
Crazy how many firearms this guy had. He was some hot shot expert on firearms, it's wild he donated everything.
We could use an #armory channel. New investigative report shows Sig Sauer KNEW their guns were not drop-safe and kept selling them anyway.
"When gun manufacturer Sig Sauer was about to land a massive deal in 2016 to supply the US Army with a new pistol, the military made a disturbing discovery during testing. If dropped at a certain angle, the gun would go off by itself. The company won the deal last year anyway, then fixed the guns before shipping them.
The Army’s apparent endorsement helped make a nearly identical Sig Sauer pistol, the P320, a popular choice for police departments and the general public. But for several months, **the company sold its commercial version of the gun without the fix it had made for the military**, a CNN investigation has found."

That would be against the rules
@ThisIsChris What's your call on @RevStench 's post? No weapons allowed, but I wonder if we shouldn't make an exception here because he's working on an historic state arsenal. I defer to you.
@Deleted User @RevStench thanks for calling me into this. Rule 8 is stated:
>8 - Weapons
No discussion of weaponry of any kind is permitted on the server. Discussion of historical artifacts, in a historical context, where those artifacts happen to be weapons, is permitted as long as this is not used as a proxy for discussion of how those weapons may be put to actual use.
I wouldn't make exceptions to the rule but based on what you pointed out I do not see @RevStench 's collection as an exception but rather entirely within the rule since it is a discussion where the weapons are historical artifacts and clearly labeled as so.
My only suggestion is that the collection go into the new <#454627229654056963> channel under the Academics section. It didn't exist before since I was considering history suitable for the humanities channel but it probably deserves its own spot.
Cool, thanks, I just wanted to make sure that fell within the rules.
@RevStench Thanks, I appreciate your conscientiousness!
@RevStench Wow,that's 1 heck of a collection!😍
@celticflame yeah it's a crazy collection. I looked up the guy George M Chinn, interesting life that guy lived.
Also good luck on your little business, how's the uploading going?😃
@RevStenchthanks,i bet it was. Well uploading still has a while to go,have been busy with other stuff,so need to get back to
it soon,lol. But thanks!
@RevStench that's all packed pretty tight and takes awhile to upload and describe each one... so ya,gonna take a bit longer,lol😂
Lol yep!
@RevStench I didn’t realize the collection was a Chinns. Colonel chinn probably had a hand in designing a lot of those weapons.
He designed the Mk 19 grenade launcher. Which I didn't get a picture of haha.
He had an interesting life.
Brick layers should always have jeans and knee pads
I’ve done some brick laying, not a fan
80 degrees basically is what they are crying about? The Brits need to harden up.
Oh they're Brits. Makes sense now. I'm surprised that they don't have to wear hijabs to please their new masters.
I'm sure a headscarf is more comfortable than a hard hat anyway.
What the fuck kinda construction job has a dress code? I get shoe and hard hat requirements, but no shorts is just dumb. Also agree that they need knee pads on.
I'm not allowed to wear shorts @micbwilli
Maybe I just never did that kinda work with a reputable place.
I work on huge commercial projects
I have to wear pants and steel toes as well as high visibility shirts. Some sites also require hard hats. In my opinion I never work in shorts don’t believe shorts make a huge difference temperature wise.
I think it depends on where you are. I wear shorts all summer. I'd heat stroke walking into work if I didn't. Alabama Summers are like a damp oven.
Nah mang, Central Florida here. Mandatory pants, mandatory hardhat, mandatory steel toes. I usually wear long sleeve shirts when I work outside
I am in ky today was 95 and 90% humidity.
And that is the norm for this time of year.
Yeah hot. But jeans all year long. I wear these Lee Khaki jean like pants on really hot days. They breath, but I don't have a uniform, but jeans and pocket T's. But it comes down to safety, my boots have a metal plate in the sole, I don't want a 100 year old nail, well any nail to go in my leg or foot, or get cut by something on the leg.
I think @John O - probably has it the worst, daily rain turns FL into a sauna. And those Brits in that article are crying over 80°. 😁
