Just met a fine young Marine Sgt at my FFL about ten minutes ago......8 year vet, Iraq vet, buying a Sig for his own personal sidearm while at home....can't carry anything but his M9 or 1911 variant while in country....and an MP4...
Going to enter the Officers Canditate program and all he said was, "I want to finish school as fast as I can so I can get back to MY GUYS".......Since I shook his hand and thanked him for his service, thanked his lovely wife for her sacrifice as well, I guess that makes me an extremist....and DAMN PROUD OF IT.....
Semper Fi, young man!
