    I love the irony of sending a couple of goat f–kers to meet Allah via a hot topless Jewish chick.
    And DAMN glad Sam lost her T-shirt somewhere…hopefully Zed hid it well.

        I could be totally wrong here and please correct me if I am.

        I’ve read that pig fat is one of the ingredients in gunpowder. If so that means that there will be residue on any bullet that’s been fired. It also means that if you breathe in any gunsmoke you’ll be breathing in pig fat residue.

        I’d love to see the expression on a Jihadists face when they learn this. It’s means their dead friends are in Hell and they will be going to hell for firing a gun. Not only from breathing in the smoke but the residue that gets on their hands too,

        Like I say I could be wrong and my feelings will not be hurt if corrected.

        The Great Indian Mutiny began when new rifles were issued that had a cartridge that had to be torn open, with the soldier’s teeth, to load the gun. Muslims believed that it was greased with pig fat and Hindus believed that it was greased with beef fat.

        If only we could convince the Muslims that some koranic verse could be interpreted to mean that handling a nuclear device will result in the Sinner’s manhood turning colors and falling off and the brain becoming attuned to hear Jewish songs and see gay colors.

        LotM;

        The interesting part is that the paper cartridges were never lubricated with either hog fat or beef fat, as nether one was readily available in Britain at the time. They were lubricated with sheep tallow, which was more stable in extremes of temperature (i.e., didn’t melt in the summertime in India), as well as being cheap in Britain due to sheep being the island’s major type of livestock.

        Mutton, of course, was OK for Hindus and Muslims both.

        The moral is of course that those who seek power by evil means can be very clever liars.

        Saltpetre was one of the main ingredients of traditional gunpowder; one of the best sources of saltpetre was pig dung (not pig fat).

        CB, modern “smokeless powder” propellant is typically some proprietary twist on nitrocellulose (aka “gun cotton”) or nitrocellulose and nitroglycerine. No animal involved.

        I have 200 rounds of 7.62X51 FMJBT that I have wiped the exposed part of the projectile with lard for that very purpose. Have to be careful not to foul the barrell. I also have 100 rds of 165 gr jacketed hollow point .40 cal with a small amount of lard in the cup, sealed with wax. I figure that’s going to spread lard (rendered pig fat) all through their chest cavity. Reckon that’ll put paid to their dreams of virgins.

      It’s a little hard to tell; not much to go on. But it, firstly, looks a little small to be a .50 caliber. It also has a flat device on the end; too small to be a suppressor, more likely an angular muzzle break. Additionally, there appears to be a small box magazine beneath the gun. Furthermore, there’s an angular flare before you see the barrel extending out of the housing.

      We also know the “tastes” of the main characters and their affection for the “latest and greatest” items like the observation drone and the “dogs”.

      Finally, 1260 yards is something of a stretch for most of the common “full size” rifle calibers.

      I’m going to say Barret MRAD in .338 Lapua: http://emptormaven.com/img/MRADfrontquarter.jpg

        Hometown boy…just down the road a piece from my birthplace in Columbia TN.

        But if you prefer your Volunteer State gun engineering a little more um, basic; there’s the FMJ double barrel pistol from Ducktown TN. Pretty much a couple small lengths of pipe welded together with a hammer and a handle stuck on, chambered for 410/45. That Barrett is a beast but I’d still lay down with it before grabbing a handful of FMJ.

      With that muzzle break though, her no-profile Ear Protection with built-in communication system may be as expensive as the gun…

      Otherwise she’ll be saying “WHAT…??” a lot.

      • June 21, 2016 at 9:37 am

        Well it’s muzzle “brake” of course, and trigger “break”, but with the former “controlling” a .50 (or .338L) and the latter controlled by Naomi, something downrange is sure to also break.

        Myself, it took me a while to realize there was more than one kind of guns in those pics. Buncha geeks. But I love it.

    Rem 700 in 308 or .338 Lapua or .50 Barret. At over 1 click it’s got to be the big bores. Personally I’d use the Lapua. Over 1.5 clicks it’s the Barret all the way.

    Of course, with this crowd the wildly popular first assumption (including me) is that Naomi is defending the property, and nation, from invaders of [REDACTED] faith/hostile-ideology or of [REDACTED] itinerant-nationality and is “squee”-ing in delight at the prospect.

    But consider the source… With Chris’s sense of humor, the targets could be Feral Hog on the ranch, for use in the DDQ, and we are directly hearing the “squee” of the closer target; punched center-mass. (On the other hand, I’ve only heard directly from one source, but I’m told Feral Hog tastes terrible…)

    I’m so hoping it’s the former case though…
