A Preiser problem

I'm probably wrong on the scale. IIRC, the Aurora plane models were

1:48, but their armor models were much smaller. And yes, "figher jet" has bothered me the last few years, just like "WMD" when refer> I agree.

"And yes, "figher jet" has bothered me the last few years, just like "WMD" when refering to chemical and biological agents since neither are. Supppsedly they are mass casualty weapons, or MCW. I tend to disagree."

I've always thought that B-52s carpeting bombing from 30,000 feet is much more likely to create mass causulties.

Or hairspray mannequins - er, uh, local TV "reporters" - calling cartridge cases left at a crime scene "bullet shells".

Or more so, some idiot refers to an antisubmarine warfare aircraft with a side-by-side two seat cockpit and a couple more crew positions as a "fighter jet" - and the idiot who climbed out of it wearing a borrowed flight suit as the "pilot", even though he lost his pilot qualification decades before in shadowy circumstances (hard to pee in a cup at a flight physical when you snorted coke at a party a week before) and at any rate was NEVER, EVER, carrier qualified.

Just wait til he opens his mouth to bite your friend. Hit him in a soft spot. ;-)

Hi David,

Sorry, don't have an answer for you, but someone here probably does:

But, Mike, where are you going to find HO scale yellow "Crime Scene" tape to put around it?

That is what high-res color-inkjet printers are for....

Using a 7.62 wouldn't be much better than the 5.56. While the AK round is 30 caliber, it doesn't have enough "punch". Recommended caliber for bear is 300WinMag.

I still say there's nothing wrong with a Ma Deuce - other than lugging the damn thing around. The noise alone should scare off Smokey.
