Los Angeles, CA—They make a lot of films here and when that happens they need props. Guns are in most every film and they have to keep a massive supply on hand. Whether they’re making a Cowboy shoot’em up or a war film they need enough guns for the armies of actors and extras. I spent the day with my beautiful friend, Andrea at a prop house and played with so many really nice firearms. From top to bottom: 1. The M-! Garand rifle used by Clint Eastwood in his film Gran Torino 2. Lots of H&K products. You can never have too many MP5 sub-machine guns! 3. 3This Gattlin gun has been in many films including 3:10 to Yuma. 4. A blunderbuss from Pirates of the Caribbean 5. A “Chicago Typewriter” used in Public Enemies. I'd like to thank ISS Props for the sneak peek at their wares: http://issprops.com/

Instead we must boycott the airlines and flood the politicians and bureaucrats with hostility and complaints. Demonstrations need to be held at the government office buildings or homes...

They were killed or wounded by a diabolical group of Marxist revolutionaries led by a young couple, Andreas Baader and Ulrike Meinhof . This group later became the infamous, Rote Armee Fraktion or in English, Red Army Faction. They were responsible for nearly 300 bombings during their existence. I knew some radical kids my age in this country I’m so fond of even today. The kids were wrapped up in the politics of the day but thankfully they were more moved by music, romance, persuing education and their wonderful youth. I never once feared the radical kids because they were indeed my friends. Baader-Meinhof was very active while I was there 1968-1970 . They blew up an ammo dump near my barracks and one young soldier was killed. I would have been required to perform guard duty there but was exempted because of my...
