I'm gonna suggest here, that the clue is in the name: Big Sarge. If Sarge thinks that weapon looks useless, I'm inclined to take his word for it.

Also, as someone who knows Sweet Fanny Adams about weaponry, I have to say, I'd be more frightened if someone pulled a blade on me than if they waved that at me.

@ Squirel: laughing my tits off, rfn :P

People who use tough usernames are most likely just average (or less) in real life.

Annnd, I can see that this thread was a mistake.

Umm...actually he's a serving soldier of long experience. But if you haven't been keeping up with dwellars then you weren't to know.

*chuckles* the thread's not a 'mistake'. But y'know...post stuff and people will comment; that's kind of what we do :P

Unless they had, like, a gun.

I think the claw thing has a certain bad-ass style, but IMHO it tries too hard, which makes it a wannabe bad-ass thing. I can't imagine anyone who expects a fight to choose it as a useful weapon over, say a club or regular knife.

Big Sarge · 02-05-2010, 08:13 PM

I'm sorry Datalyss for making an unseemly comment about the claw. I'm sure you will find it quite useful for personal defense from the bullies who take your school lunch money.

You pegged me on the user name. I guess I don't measure up in real life.

Usually weapons purchased at the renaissance faire don't hold up very long either. Well, the ones Jim bought didn't anyway...

ZenGum · 02-05-2010, 08:33 PM

Yeah, but you had some fun games with them before they broke, right?

And just how do you know this? Cuz he told you.

Got any concrete proof?

lumberjim · 02-05-2010, 08:47 PM

there's a bunch of pictures of him in Iraq and a recent one with the Houston Texan Cheerleaders. and this lends some credibility to that whole thing.

Ya know, BUDK isn't necessarily for people looking for useful/practical weapons. It targeted toward collectors of real life and fantasy weapons.

IMO, ya'll should really take a good look at their site B4 making any judgements.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I off to watch CAPRICA. TTYL.

I must play nicely with others....I must play nicely with others....I must play nicely with others....awww, fuck it! Let me see, I demob in Hattiesburg and Gallman is about 2 hours away. If I run a MS DL (driver's license) search for males born 05JAN70 and cross refence the location, I'll get an address. Then I can reference tag receipts for registered vehicles..........

Of course I'm just kidding because if I saw a 40 yoa man with a fantasy skull gauntlet from the famous BDK, I would run screaming to my mommy. Now I need to go take my medicine. I admit I'm not the most stable person when I miss a dose.

monster · 02-05-2010, 09:42 PM

I doubt he has a DL. He's probably on some registry or other, though.
