    winch cable experts?

    That's a pretty significant event in terms of Army accidents. I'm tied in to the Army safety network fairly well but I haven't heard of this one. Where and when did it occur? Class A accidents are tracked very well, if this actually did happen I can get more details. I would find it hard to...

    winch cable experts?

    By all means please get started. A lot of us have read about synthetic winch rope and think we might understand the pros and cons, but if you have some actual testing experience that surely trumps the anecdotal comments I usually run across. There is some info on the site about synthetic, but...

    As valuable as HMMWVs are why would he just let one sit and rot?

    Snafu, good one.

    Why did the wheel and drum separate from the vehicle? Mechanical failure, PM failure, etc? Is this something that routinely happens to M715/725s?

    Railroad Forum

    In a case like this I'll just defer to to the Bradley forum. How many Bradley owners here? If we can have a niche forum like that, why not trains? What big kid doesn't like trains! :D

    GA MVPA Fall Rally: September 28-29, 2012

    I was thinking about going, but I'm not sure if the wife has plan for us that weekend. Is there a reason not to go to this one or perhaps not to support the GA MVPA? Not questioning your decisions, just wondering if there is a back story or some politics at play. I'm new to the MVPA and GA...

    unknown M35a2c bed brackets.

    To add to what Recovry said about the bow holding brackets in the first pic, the things hanging on the rods are for canvas straps that once held the bows in place. The canvas straps often rot off.

    Inexpensive gun prop-M4

    An art deco M4? An M4 is about 50 years too late to be art deco. Art deco is a 1920's and 30's style characterized by precise and boldly delineated geometric shapes and strong colors. Good job with some low cost pieces to add to your display. I'm sure you're tracking already, but even with...

    Not over in Wisconsin, group plans constitutional amendment on road funding

    Terrible. I personally dislike Priuses (Prii?) and Volts or more specifically the self righteous owners, but really what's not to like about using less fuel as long as you dont get penalized for it. Aren't there some figures out there that show driving an older vehicle after it reaches a...

    ***Fraud Warning***

    I don't buy or sell overseas via ebay anymore. There are just too many scams and too little protection for overseas deals. Some of these radio deals out of Cyprus and Israel are pretty tempting, but I'm far too wary. I've been scammed before as well. Legit looking buyer pays for something via...

    925 or 813?

    I've heard my M813 w/w is looking for a new home as well. Manual or auto... personal preference. I've never owned a M925, but elsewhere here I've seen the auto trans is expensive to repair. But then again I've never repaired a manual trans either...:lol:

    navy/military boat section?

    Of course it's not a democracy, but at least members can express their opinions. Where it goes from there.... well, take it or leave it, we did what we could.
