Title: You might be a backyard commando if:???
Post by: Jim Kennedy-ar154me on June 07, 2021, 10:23:15 AM: I have always heard different sayings for defining this such as:

You might be a backyard commando if:

You have a tattoo of Tom Clancy.

When going to the range you are required to notify the police in 4 counties:

The ammo inside your house is worth more than your house.

Your loadout vest weighs more than 100 pounds.

OK... What more can we add.

You have a shed full of dremels.
You have a pinup of a HK.
