    WTF Gene I'm like the only gun nut on here other than Zoom and maybe Pheebs. Your hint aint narrownig down Sheeit! I can name of 23 gns that had a limited edition run in the "mid eighties" 12 of them having stock Rosewood combat grips. This could take a while dude ROFL!!!!
    U can add me to that list too Jet but I'm out on this one. I totally agree though that it doesn't narrow it down much.

    Smith and Wesson
    629-1 Lew Horton Edition
    .44 mag
    4" bbl"
    Stainless
    Thats my guess. Only thing is kind of heavy to be toting around in a brief case and handlign well...most 44 29's and 629's ive held and shot have been outstanding guns but as far as handling , well, they're kinda clunkers.

    Oh Jeezus. STFU Squirrel! I Love 44 mag. I have a 629 6" and a 29 from the late eighties. Both are awesome wheel guns! I've taken wild boar with the latter and keep the former on my hip when in bear/mountain lion country when hunting or camping. When i think good handling...M&P 40, Sig P226, Most S&W J Frames, Browning Hi-Power and my USPSA Gun, a Les Baer 1911. You know if we get too into this we may have to start a new thread. :)

    It's a battery of 16" guns going off. As much bombing as i've been doing lately i thought it was appropriate

    OK. Gun #2
    Smith and Wesson
    44 Special
    Blue
    Model 24 Lew Horton Edition
    Making that particular gun a 3" barrel all of those guns coming with combat grips
    Small enough to tote in a brief case. Powerful enough to tune up even the worst attitudes.

    Sorry for the late Question...Here we go!
    I came in the Navy in 1997. My first assignement was to a ship that was already deployed to the Persian Gulf. What ship was it? How old was I and what was my rank?

    KICK-ASS BONUS STICK(youll do a backflip when you see it)!! I flew onto my first ship onboard an aircraft. What aircraft was it?(Hint: An aircraft can be a Helicopter or an Airplane)

    Have fun!!

    Hint: The ship is currently decommissioned

    these questions are getting more and more complicated. me and my limited memory can't handle it. they say we can only remember 2 seconds worth...

    Really that hint narrows it down quite a bit. Wish i could say more.... next hint will damn near give it away.

    rdnstnrdnstn Posts: 993 ✭✭
    Come on guys. I was able to narrow it down to 1 of 2 carriers on the first page that I looked at. It's not really that hard.
  • Options
    Jetmech_63Jetmech_63 Posts: 3,451 ✭✭✭
    If this doesnt give it away..you guys suck! hint # 2:
    When my first ship decomissioned, we cross decked to another ship in Pearl Harbor and rode that ship back to Yokosuka Japan...my first ships homeport. I addition, i did not come in the Navy as a Third Class, but made Third Class in 98. No more hints LOL!!! Good luck on the bonus, Hell i'll narrow that one down too...it was a helicopter...that narrows the bonus down to 2! :).
