TheCongo: But she is still single and never been married.
So, this is the best time for her to do things that she won't be able to do once she ties the knot.
Let's her enjoy life NOW.
I would encourage her to keep on chatting with the new dude. Who knows if he is the ONE.
if you do not lead a responsible life as a single adult you would not be responsible as a married adult either.

yeboyes: Do you think they will ever legalize it in Nigeria? I wish they would because our people need to learn self defense so they can take on all these yeye armed robbers and kidnappers.If they legalize i will open a shooting range sharp ,sharp in Nigeria.Just imagine how much money you will make from such a business grin . before you know guns will become fashion accessories and guy like wizkid will be posing with their rifles on their twitter page.You know our people now! wink

I did a bit of research and i see that the Ak 12 is actually a brand new weapon and only a few privileged people have actually had the honor of test firing it.The Russian army will take delivery of it this year
Yes its in its final stage of testing with the Russian armed forces. It has already been issued to some of their special troops like spetznas

The tavor you linked to is a civilian variant, the military version comes standard with scopes and is a fully automatic select fire rifle while the civilian variant is strictly semi automatic. It would be a welcome idea to be able to buy and carry weapons in nigeria other than shotguns but i must say that the priviledge will be abused by people in political office as a means to fund and maintain small armies

yeboyes: Check out the Russian president testing the Ak 12. I won't lie ,i have no experience with the AK 12.I will check with the guys at my local shooting range to see if anyone has one.It does look like a very sweet weapon.

If not for the cartridge i won't realize it is an AK.They change a lot of this like th stock ,the wood barrel cover e.t.c.It looks mean!

Dont mind me i am gun crazy grin
Gun crazy u say, I'm gun nuts and can't wait for it to be legalized in Nigeria. People at your gun range may also not have much experience with it. Its not a very common weapon. It was mainly designed after the shotgun version of the AK which is the Saiga 12

I believe scopes should be made a standard in all branches of the armed forces

yeboyes: Oh yes i remember that,i hope they use it now because i want our personnel to have the upper hand and kick these Boko mofos to the ground.By the way i was on Beeagles blog now and he showed a picture of our Airforce personnel sporting the Tavor rifle.This is another bad ass rifle grin

Do you agree though that gun scopes should be made available for personnel weapons especially the aks? I mean don't you think that will help with accuracy?

Let me share the picture of a brand new AK with scope:
Yeah the air force quick response group (QRG) and also Navy Special Boat Service (SBS) and the SSS weild tavors. I can't go a day without visiting beegeagles blog. I'm there like 10 or more times a day

yeboyes: No worries brother.My critism of the Nigerian Army is not because i hate our army but because i love our army.I don't want our personnel dying while some fat general is drinking larger beer in the comfort of his home.Our boys and girls must be given the best hardware so that they chances of not getting killed is higher.These soldiers put the lives on the line for all of us so they must be treated like our brothers and sisters not some disposable thing.

I am of the Opinion that the Nigerian Military personnel should form a union to ask for better wages and better weapons.I love that Ak you displayed ,especially because it has a lot of useful accessories. Are these being used by the Nigerian army yet?
No they're not in service yet within the armed forces but knowing how good we are at getting AK variants I wouldn't be surprised if I see this before the end of this year.

yeboyes: To the best of my knowledge we do not have Apaches and a single helicopter can not sort out Boko haram. Like some pointed out earlier , intelligence is important.We need to have someone feeding us information about the plans of boko before we strike.These guys are going in blindly with limited intelligence. I forsee a blood bath on both sides if adequate care is not taken.

If i were in the shoes of the Military intelligence officer at this late state i will just employ the use of small spy drone.There are some spy drone which are small but have a long range and are very quiet.The spy drone can perform forward Reconnaissance tasks by flying over volatile areas,recording video and taking pictures.This spy drones cost anything from $150 to $2 million each and are used by many Militaries today.

Let me show you a video of what a spy drone can do:

To the best of my knowledge, the Nigerian air force developed a bunch of drones sometimes last year. They are called amebo drones and from the name its safe to say that they are reconnaissance drones. And I heard awhile ago that they have already been deployed to those restive areas

seunny4lif: Na true ooh
@yeboyes I'm sorry if my earlier comment came of as an insult to you. I didn't intend it to once again I'm sorry. But back to the topic; I believe the military should stick to a weapon that is known to the soldiers but a more modern version of it. With that said I give you the AK 12

PoliticsRe: 2,000 Soldiers, Jets Deployed To Borno by firetrap(m): 1:37pm On May 15, 2013
yeboyes: [b]$13,000 for what? Who will buy it? The average cost of FN Scars are between $2000 to $4000 depending if it is light or heavy version as well as if accessories are included. Now that price is the price i can buy it as a civilian at the local gun store.If the Nigerian Military wants to order the full auto version ,they will sell it to them cheaper as they are buying in bulk.The most important accessories that most of the troops should have is the red dot sight.The milion our politicians steal is enough to arm the boys who go and risk their lives for us.

I am aware that Ak-47 comes in different variants but the accuracy at long range and recoil problems remain similar amongst all the variants.I own an Ak-47 amongst other weapons and i love it but i know it's limitation.The recoil affects accuracy especially in a situation where you have to use supressive fire or even if you are trying to get out of a jam.It also has a forward grip accessory which helps to stabilize the barrel for precision shooting and further reduce recoil.

The FN Scar has lighter recoil and with a longer barrel is deadly accurate meaning you use less bullets to hit your target dead center. I also like the weight distribution of the FN scar .I take my rifles to the range on the weekends and i compare both and to be honest the FN Scar is just Sweet to use.I tell you if you give our boys FN scar they will dump AK-47 in a Jiffy.

The usual excuse people make for the Ak-47 is that it never jams but in a combat situation ,soldier are more concerned about hitting their target than their weapons jamming.Even if your rifle jams ,you will switch to your pistol.The FN Scar rarely jams and only does so after it has fired quite a lot of rounds.

Let me share some videos of the FN Scar with you:

FN Scar L (Light)or FN Scar 16 (Light) .The both fire the 5.56 Nato Rounds

when we talk about intelligence agencies in Nigeria the only thing that comes to peoples mind is SSS. we have other security agencies like: D.M.I ( directorate of military intelligence), N.I.A ( National intelligence tangency), DSS ( Department of State Services also known as SSS), D.I.A (Defence Intelligence Agency), F.I.I.B (Federal Investigation and Intelligence Bureau)

yeboyes: [b]Your information is flawed ,i am of the misunderstanding that Nigeria has over 98,000 active troops.Secondly it is not the number of troops you have that really matters but the fire power you have.A small island country with just 10 F-22 Raptors will defeat Nigeria in less than a day.That is the bitter truth.We don't have the fire power at the moment to fight serious wars.

Our Army tanks are old ,Our navy ships are ancient ,our fighter jets are flying coffins ,what more can i say.Nigeria is regarded as being more powerful than Algeria who is to our our North but as a man who is involved in the world of military arms ,i know for a bonafide fact that Algeria will give Nigeria a tough time in a head to head war.

Not only does algeria have over mordern 1000s tanks but they also have 4th generation fight jets like the Su 27 and su 35 fulcrum.Their Navy has over 12 destroyer vessels that are faster and more deadlier than Nigeria's ancient NSS flag ship.They also have over 260 attack helicopters and their soldier are trained in jijustu.To make matters worse they also have submarine which could come into our waters and shell our cities with missiles.[/b]

yesman or whatever you call yourself, I believe that your a matured adult with pubic hairs. please stop comparing the Nigerian military structure with that of other nations. our so called ancient navy flagship which was hitherto listed as inoperable and grounded on Wikipedia showed up during the centenary celebration in Brazil and won an award even in the presence of aircraft carriers. Battles are won not by the amount of equipment a nation has but by how they are used

collins011: Heavy military hardware including firefighter jets deployed. Please i want to ask, when will nigerian army will stop using this 19th century gun. this was the same type of gun Adolph Hitler used during the world war. Honestly i doubt the level of sophistication those military hardware equipment can handle, ofcourse who said there is no outdated firefighter jet. Pls tell the government to face out those guns pls
the Nigerian army has modern heavy weapons that were purchased in the last 10 years so please do not say what you do not know. these comments are the effects of watching to many movies and international news station like CNN and BBC who make it their agenda to always show Nigeria in has light at the behest of their pay masters. Nigeria is a very secretive nation when it comes to her military acquisition. just you wait and see the pictures of the type of equipment that would be deployed into those theatres of conflict then you'll know if they're modern or not

if our military is as advanced as the US army then our political, social and economic climate would be like the US as well. these things work proportionally. we are a developing country - anyone expecting our soldiers to be as advanced as the ones in developed countries must be high on amphetamines!

https://www.pointblankarmor.com/Military/_images/_mainImages/otv_bg.jpg

The above cost less than a thousand dollars per soldier.

I will also arm all our combatant soldiers with the latest and most accurate assault rifles like FN Scar Lite and heavy loaded with extra. This is my favorite rifle as it is has tons of accessories and is extremely accurate especially with a longer barrel.With this riffle you won't waste bullets.One bullet one kill.It is favored by a lot of modern militaries as it is very affordable, accurate and durable.

who told you such rifles are affordable and cheap. one of such cost close to 13k dollars for the standard version without any other accessories. please don't be quick to trash the weapons we use. the US still issues its soldiers with m16s and m14s and not every AK you see is an Ak 47. we have different variants of the AK in our inventory

Uchpappi: what i don't understand is why he left all the politicians in those states to occupy their seats knowing fully well that some of them work with these terrorists. if the politicians still control the resources of those states then what he has simply done is renaming what has already been in place.In my opinion he should have removed all the politicians and maybe leave only the governor as a figure head
if a military administrator had been put in charge, come 2015 there would not be elections in those states cos the governors would not have served out their terms of office. so it was a wise move to leave the governors in office with little or no powers at all and grant the military sweeping powers
