[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 2013535, member: 5412"] I probably wasn't too clear in my original post, but I agree with your insite to a point. The great pics of all the weapons over history, have never stopped a determined force. In Vietnam we faced Viet Cong with Mosins, Bow and arrows, simple IED's, AK's, and other primative weapons, most of the time we beat their ass, but sometimes they beat us with simple weapons that were the greatest. Booby traps, IED's, bungee pits, sharpened bamboo laced with human excrement to cause infection, and the list goes on. In Iraq, the greatest amount of casualities came from IED's, planted by insurgents. Yeah, once they planted them, we could find and kill them with our technology, but we had dead people. They had no techology. Keep in mind that a lot of these "feel good" video's of the kill shots in the sand box are reproductions of video games. They sound real but they are not. [/QUOTE]
