I get the joke, and it's kind of funny , but the French army, until World War II, was considered the greatest land army in the world for a couple hundred years prior. France got destroyed in WWI, almost all the fighting was just inside their country. They weren't ready for WW II and wouldn't be for another 10 years probably, but they didn't have the time and got surprised but a very good German plan of attack. Blitzkrieg was dominant early in the war.
It’s fun aiming at a small spot from hundreds of yards away. Kind of like golf
. . . but for me the rifle shot is so, so much easier than the golf shot.
Yeah it just doesn't do it for me. I got bored in 15 minutes.
I like that Yellow Man.
Who are you taking about?
uh Bert before you get your depends up in a twist, I know gun owners like this. it's why I asked.
Do you still use your flintlock musket from the Revolutionary War? Winking. . . but for me the rifle shot is so, so much easier than the golf shot.
I just watched The Patriot recently haha, this post made me laugh.
It’s a good one. Super dramatic but it’s works with that era of film. Gladiator too. Love both of those movies.
Gladiator is one of my favorite movies. So is Troy. So is Braveheart.
LaughingOh, I like it... I own it. It’s just terrible
“Prepare to execute prisoners!”
I have always loved shooting starting with a single shot 22 rifle mom gave me when I was 14. I still love shooting, however, nowadays it is more for practice then fun. Something about knowing I have the skill to put a small bullet into a small target at distance. I do not hunt these days either, but still own guns for hunting IF the need ever arises. The rest of my guns are for self protection, the world has gone crazy the last 50 years. I am too old to fight off anyone now, but still good enough to blow someones head off if need be. Sadly, if you need to call 911, by the time a cop gets there, whatever was going to happen has happened already, I perfer my story being the only one told.
I will keep it simple:
For 40 years I have been trying to talk my cousin out of Benjamin Higginbotham's flintlock rifle used in the revolution. I would love to have it. Plus they are worth a lot of money.
It’s a great movie. Stop being a British sympathizer.The Patriot?!
OK, so here’s the thing… Not only am I a harsh movie critic, I’m a guy with a Brown Bess hanging on my wall. Do you really want me to go off about it’s portrayal of Cornwallis and Tarleton?
Historical issues aside, it was just an insanely ridiculous cheesy movie. Like, so over the top and stupid. That little girl not talking, him taking out an entire British column, the bad guys being so completely evil... and that annoying ****ing guy who was his best friend, with that laugh? I was straight up glad when he killed himself. Again, I own it, and I’ve probably watched it 100 times... and that movie was terrible
Btw, one vs one, Kong totally takes Godzilla. Just FYI.
Lol this is probably the dumbest post I’ve read in quite some time. No wonder you steer clear of the political thread. Big yikes.
