Yes, as stated above it belongs to my brother...you can see my gun at this website... www.cx4storm.com (I have the 9mm version). But to repeat bejean, it is a .308 caliber AR-10. The weapon looks very different now and I will update it with antoher pic soon. My brother has added a collapsible stock, since Bush did away with the gun ban, a rail system and attached a sling and a bipod to it. It looks like one heck of a bad weapon now. For more specs go to www.armalite.com I am more of a musician, my brother is the weapons afficianado. :lol:

I am quite familiar with small arms myself. I grew up in a gun store and have been to Glock Armorers school. Also own several firearms including a couple of Glocks, a Colt AR-15 Law Enforcement carbine (during the ban TYVM) and several other cool items.

Well, how about a pic of yourself with the guns then mate! That is what I started the thread for, so we could get to see each other.

92F? Mine was made in Italy. It's all in the placement, and the type of metal that comes out the the little hole at the business end. PS, I use it only for Feral Cats. I hate cats. Here we go with the off-topic firearms stuff again. 8)

Alright, will upload my pictures once the woman come back from her holiday with my camera.

A little about me? Well, i am 29 this year and as said i had served in the Singapore Army and we are primarily a conscription force. Most of our equipment are mostly from USA and training doctrine is modelled after the USA, British and Israel. My vocation in the army was Guards NCO and my old unit 1st Battalion Singapore Guards. We are an air cavalry battalion sized formation using Super Pumas, Chinooks and Hueys. Now i operate a small wholesale business with my woman (she's Dutch)

Had discovered MRE during a exchange program with the US Marines, 1st package was beef hash. Singapore has its own MRE too but it is generally bland and shite. :cry:

I like MRE that has pasta entries and am of the opinion that pasta is the best operational food in the field that is until one day technology can give us real and medium rare beef steaks in the foil.
:wink:

I noticed high powered assault rifles and machine guns are banned in the states? Btw is there anyway you guys can get a personal piece over there.

Have you heard of the Utimax 100? Its a great 5.56mm light machine gun with 100rds drum mag. :twisted: Fucking loved it during army days.

Is this the gun you're talking about?

As for what's banned in the states, full-auto machine guns are banned unless you have a special Class III firearms license. But most other types of semi-auto assault rifles are allowed (depending on each individual state's laws).

Here's more information than you probably want on the topic:

I don't like to see people say "banned". Full-auto firearms are not "banned". They are perfectly legal to own in most states (but not all) in the United States WITH the proper licensing from the federal government. Where I live, it isn't that hard to get your paperwork signed off to own a suppresor or full auto firearm.

Good point, Twobravo. I should have used the word "restricted" instead of banned.
