Well who would have known... not only does Rob have a wealth of knowledge on military vehicles, but he is also a "go to" expert when it comes to relationships. A handy guy to have around.

More of a fisherman actually. You jiggle the bait, but hide the hook and don't set it until they are really onto it.
In this case, Derk had a full size RCMP mannequin in red serge standing in his living room. I warned him it would not be conducive to romantic endeavors, and move it downstairs for a bit. Same thing with the basement. Not unlike silence of the lambs, or the lady with the dragon tattoo...you don't bring them into the lair until they understand you, or you mean to finish them.

Now back to the 4.2 stuff.

I have 3 sight units for the 3" and 4.2 inch. They seem to be pretty much the same units except there is a different scale for elevation on the 4.2. One sight has no markings, the next one was marked 3" but it was Xd out and 4.2 stamped in it's place, and the last one is marked 3" and for a bonus has a few C/l\s on it as well. However, instead of the usual lensatic top, it has had some kind of ring installed. Anyone seen this before?
