Title: This is madness!
Post by: TheSoulhunter on Mon, 07 April 2014, 05:51:22
Tried to buy a belt from ebay...

[attachimg=1]

"This item is regulated by Part 121 of the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR).
By bidding on or purchasing this item, you confirm that you're buying this item for your own use,
that you're a U.S. citizen or permanent resident of the U.S., and that you won't export this item outside of the U.S.."


Yes, it's a military style molle belt, but it's  still JUST A ****ING BELT! >_<

Can't have people from countries with trade sanctions wearing the same belt.

Imagine the embarrassment if you both turned up to the same war wearing the same belt!

Is that ammo straps around the sides?

And a hollow pouch around the inside for incindiary material?

like how? if by 'here' you mean Virginia, I imagine it's a place crawling with CIA, Military Contractors aka mercenaries and hit men, Spy training schools, gun advocates and military nuts. My imagination has also added images of the local walmart selling more ammo than butter, and area ebay sellers grumbling about how the wicked Mayor Bloomberg has been bad for honest, good old American mom and pop gun-selling businesses.   :p
