I heard there was alot of heat casualties there cause of the extreme climate change. I was just busting your balls bro. I would have chucked it too. The problem these days is alot of gunners don't get to shoot on bipod anymore. CSM's always preach tripod. Fuckin idoits, it's cause they don't have too carry the shit.RGR Luna wrote:h8train1/75 wrote:No body new I did it. There were so many heat casulties and my AG was having a hard time so I had him get rid of it. An AG having a heat stroke with a tripod, is much worse than having an AG with no heat problems wth no trypod. Climatizing down there was hard on alot of the guys. A big part of my decision was based on the fact that I was damn good with that gun either way. There is nothing in the history books yet, But in some ways, I did shit that was unheard of in that conflict. That's another story.RGR Luna wrote:In Just Cause, Things I threw in the weeds:

Hey Luna you chucked the tripod. I would have smoked the fuck out of my guys for doing that shit. When I was an AG/AB I had too carry that fucker everywere. So in turn they did too.
