I have been carrying the G36 lately. Nice big bullet hole!

I am about 99% sure that is the pistol I want to get fot CC.
I assume you are happy with it?

can someone tell me the difference between the glock 36 and the glock 30???
(slimline vs subcompact)

I'm guessing the 36 would be more slim???

well I actually do know the slimline is .14" thinner...
is that the only difference???

the 36 (6 rounds?) is single stack mags the only "slimline" glock has ever made, the 30 (10 rounds?) is doubble-stack same frame size as the 21.

yeah...
I did just read that.

thanks.
I guess it just carries easier?
.14" difference is pretty big on a gun actually.

Pitbull,

Amen, Tom. When I was a KAYdet at Summer Camp at Ft. Bragg, I got stuck humping the M-60 on most patrols because I was a big guy. Even with blanks, the 60 spoke louder than the M16s did. I liked it. I had a chance to get good with it at Ft knox. But THE belt fed MG is the mighty .50 cal. M-2 HB. Now that's a hoss! The little coax we had in the tanks was was nice, too, like a miniature M2. I forget what is was, M240? It would scream out bullets. Unlike you, I did not carry a weapon much in the war, being in the AF. I loaded bombs mostly, and humped a lot of ammo. It's more fun to shoot it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />


Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

Vic - I think the M240 is a "new and improved" version of the M60, though not positive. And you're right - the .50 cal. is a BEAUTY to shoot!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

And you're right again - it's DEFINITELY more fun to shoot the ammo than to "hump" it! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> Of course, the gunner is always one of the first targets in a fire-fight, along with the radio-man and Leader! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

My hats off to you, Marine grunt. Glad my Air Commando unit was able to help out at Khe Sanh. We were the guys flying in the 7.62, 5.56, and 45 acp in the C-123s. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Worst airport I ever saw.

We all fought for the same flag! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> I was not at Khe Sanh, but I certainly salute the folks who were!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> And every resupply ship of ANY kind was always a beautiful and welcome sight. Man, did I love the gunships!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Oh yes, those were Air Commando units, later called Special Ops. In gunships, all the crew does is hump 7.62! The pilot shoots the mini-guns in the old AC-47 "Puff". <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />
