"Anyone who has tried to find bandoleers to put their 7.62 NATO 5-round stripper clips in will confess that they are hard to find and getting scarcer plus are expensive and getting dearer by the day. These thin little pieces of stitched cloth have six pockets, holding two stripper clips each, or 60 rounds per bandoleer. They are a little bit of nothing and used to be ten cents a piece in most surplus stores. (When they weren't given away as just-this-side-of-trash.) Oh, for the good old days."
"While one may find M1 Garand bandoleers which will also work, they too are expensive. (The only ones I saw at the Indy 1500 show were $3.00 each without cardboards.)" ... |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
