I did. Turns out I hated getting hit in the head more than I enjoyed hitting others.

Also, I got old.

>fist honed as weapon for tens of thousands of years
You have a 10,000 year-old fist?

>>33742894
You have a thousand year old gun?

>What do you guys do when you're not deployed?
there is a set training schedule. Trips to the field weapons quals, etc
>What's the daily life like when you're back in the homeland and living in base?
Can be pretty chill as Infantry. If you are not in the field all 3 day Federal holidays are 4 day weekends. Around Christmas you go to a half day work schedule if you didn't take leave.
>What's the daily life like when you're deployed?
War is 99% boredom and 1% terror.
>blah blah blah
>Do you guys share dorms or you get one for yourself?
Depends on how old your barracks are. most places I shared a room with one other person, sometimes our room had to share a bathroom with the next room, sometimes not.
>Would you recommend it?
here's what I can tell you, you join the Army for one of two reasons 1) Muh Technical training! or 2) adventure
You want adventure join 11B not 11X, with airborne option at a min.
After you are in, you need to decide, one and done, or career. do you enlistment and gtfo or be a lifer. There is no in between.
I did two tours Iraq 11B, I earned my CIB. It taught me who I am, and gave me a great disdain for people who half step it and don't care about standards.

>join 11b, not 11x
Ask me how I know you weren't in.

I see, the thing is I feel like I wanna do something more for my country ( I am a mexican immigrant after all) and I want to do something that I can be proud of because I know I put my life on the line for it. Thank you though anon, I'll screenshot this and keep it in mind for the rest of my college years. Then I'll make the decision. Owe you one bro.

One last question though, and it's a bit personal. I have my uncle who never liked to talk about his time in Afghanistan and became bitter when he came back and got his DD214. Would I end up as bitter as him? Do infantrymen come back bitter and never change?

Anybody else feel free to put your input, I would love to get as much info as possible.

So you can have a nightstand gun, a truck gun, a carry gun, and a piece for your girlfriend/pet trap.

Fun to shoot, easy to break down and clean, reliable (never had failures except my wife limp wristing) comes with a decent case, 3 mags, not terribly expensive either, why not buy?

Ever notice how they don't do Jack shit for our freedom to own firearms? They may be pro 2nd, but they don't like what we (/k/) want, which is full auto and imports so fuck them.

>>33741840
That's great and all but they have a huge expo coming up in Atlanta and it's practically e3 for guns

So it's a crowded autistic convention with companies that think they represent the majority of enthusiasts but only care about money?

Man, the comparison is already lining up.

ever try getting into a game in PLAYERUNKNOW'S BATTLEGROUNDS or H1Z1? You have to try like several times b4 you get into the vehicle. fucking infuriating

Easier to get in/get out
It won't stop small arms fire anyway (unless you reinforce it, which adds a ton of weight.)

minimal protection, so removing them provides easier entry and exit to the vehicle.
