Ever since i was a child I have always loved science as well as Military. I love watching thing Explode, Burn, melt, disintegrate, and implode. I would love to create new and more efficient weaponry. I always believe if you are going to do a job you need to do it right the first time. I dream about creating the Ultimate weapon

If I wanted a job working for a gun company what would be the best method of approach? A degree in engineering? Marketing? Would military experience help? Personal experience would be highly appreciated.

i need help! maybe from a current marine?. . .i want to join the military and im in between choices right now. i really want to join the marines, but the Navy is one of my choices also. Im leaning towards the marines, but there is no way I would join if i couldn’t have a job that requires me to handle firearms, like the Gunners Mate does in the Navy. is there any job that will allow me to work with guns all day in the Marine Corps? (for women)

I work as a gunsmith, and the commute to work is down right awful. The job isn’t paying me too well to commute, so i was wondering what else kind of jobs i can get into if i got gunsmith experience? Will i be able to work for an armory in the military even though i’m not in a branch of any kind? Can i work on firearms from law enforcement, even though i’m not an officer? What kind of jobs can i get into? gunsmith skills also require having knowledge on working with machines such as mills and lathes.

I think the guns are technologically advanced, and in the case of the F2000, greatly superior to the M4′s currently jamming on our troops in their fight for civility in the middle east. The F2000 is a 5.56 chambered weapon, that has a longer barrel than the M4, but is much shorter. It uses M16 magazines, so it would fit right in with current weapons.
Or, thanks to the way the contracts work, is there no way for troops to recquisition their commanders to let them have better guns, even if they paid out of pocket for them? I’d consider my rifle worth investing in.
I have seen group photos of guys in my recruiter’s office that have weapons that i doubt are commonly issued. And it was the recruiter in the photos, not just a generic promotional photo.
I know SF are well known for giving the military beaurocrats the finger, and using whatever guns they feel best get the job done (H&K’s SCAR-L). Are they the only guys that get a choice in guns?
I’ll be doing 89D EOD in the Army, btw.

for a real job, like if someone wanted to know what kind, how old, and how much a gun is worth they would come to me, something like the experts do on pawnstars ,

My eyes haven’t really ever been the best throughout my life time. I’m 16, and my left eye was what they called a "Lazy eye" and now that I’ve gotten older, it’s gotten a lot better. Not perfect, really, but better and sometimes when I’m watching shows or playing games, etc, my left eye would almost come in to focus and I could see part of whatever I’m watching with my left eye. I believe, if I’m right, my left eye is now 20/60 and my right eye is 20/40 or something. I don’t think I’ll ever be out in the battlefield in say Afghanistan or something, I’d like to be.. But I’m sure it’s not that great at all, I just wanna feel like I’ve done something for my country. Now, me with bad eyesight: What kind of, I guess you’d say, career could I have in the military? Maybe a medic or something? But I don’t know anything about that. I don’t know which branch I wanna join, either. I’ve mostly been thinking USMC or the Army. If I had a job in the Army or USMC that doesn’t require shooting, etc, could I still rank up and would I be required to take some kind of physical training (I’m pretty sure everyone would have to do that, I’m just making sure what kind of physical training!) and training in firearms? (e.g. Being able to hold maybe a pistol or something for protection if I were at a base in Afghanistan). Also, what kind of eyesight would you need to join the military, anything specific?

My boyfriend cannot join as due to a record, he cannot carry a firearm nor can he ever even if it is expunged/dismissed/etc. However, he is in great shape, needs direction and wants a job that is similar. Any suggestions? Thank you.

I was thinking maye you would help me choose a job. I want a job with alot of excitement, shooting weapons, and field training. That is pretty much both of the jobs. I would like to be a police officer, but I hear police stations don’t like to hire former MPs because civilian and military law are completely different.

Specifically for a job like a military weapons designer.

I want to join the military as a medic, or something related to being an EMT/Paramedic. I was looking at Army 68W, Navy Corpsman, Coast Guard AST, and Air Force Pararescue. I’ve also wanted to join the Marines for the longest time, even though I wanted a career as a paramedic. The Marines are just such an amazing group of men and women. But they don’t have any medics within their own branch. I would want to be in combat, with a rifle. Not in a hospital, or on a ship. Out of everything I listed, which job would suit me best, in your opinion? Thanks

What college and what to study, how long in college, who could employ me, salary, where can I find info on this job?
thanks. i thought it had more to do with mechanical engineering though.
Posted in military weapons | 2 Comments »
im female so i cant go in as any combat job, instead going for a scientist based job. will i receive any further military training (firing rifles, drills, obstacle courses) as that is of major interest to me and part of wat fuelled my decision to enlist (being able to do that stuff at basic)
when i start specialising, will i ever get a chance to do something like basic again?

i am serving in the united states air force as a security forces member. i am qualified on multiple weapons systems including heavy weapons and the standard issue sidearm. as a federal law enforcement officer, and having a job where i am armed daily, do i need a concealed weapons permit to carry my personal handgun when i am not at work? or will my military issue badge and government id be sufficient?

Think about it. The Iraqi soldiers are only loyal to their Shia/Sunni/Kurdish backgrounds, and not loyal to their country. They never have been loyal to Iraq, itself, throughout Saddam’s brutal regime. They were forced to take sides with their religious backgrounds for protection and whatnot. Take a history lesson and you will understand.
Many join the Iraqi military in order to steal weapons to fight with in their Shia/Sunni/Kurdish ranks. This is why much of our Iraq War funds are unaccounted for. Bush’s plan to create a unifying Iraqi military has all the odds in the world stacked against it.
So, now, I’m sure you can understand why the Bush administration admitted the plan should not succeed if the Maliki government does not do its job.
And frankly, the Maliki government has not given us any reason to keep faith in them.

i sighned up for infantry and i suppose to leave in october but i would like to change to special weapons seargent or military police officer can i change my job since i didnt go to basic training yet i made a 45 on the asvab so i want to explore a few more options or am i already tied down to my contract
Posted in military weapons | 2 Comments »
I’m enlisting soon and looking at my job options. I’m joining the reserves, and my recruiter told me there were no infantry slots available until 2012. I wanted infantry, but I’m fine choosing something else. I know every Marine is a rifleman, and everyone goes through MCT, but I want a job that receives weapons training at their MOS school and is around guns for the most part. Military Police, for example, but my recruiter also told me the MP field is starting to be replaced by civilians. Please help. Thank you!

i’ve been thinking bout joining up with the IDF. I was thinking of a job that would be low risk. yet i still have this feeling i might be good with a gun. infantry seems high risk of death. are snipers any sort of exception?
Posted in military guns | 8 Comments »
how long will it take me to actually get an actual job? i dont rlly want to go to grad school so can i get a job right out of college? maybe something with electric propulsion systems or designing aircraft or just making some things more effiecient
its not like all i want to di is fight just that i want to work with technology and advance technology and the military has alot of it that i can work with and thus create more ect…

Are Navy and Marines only armed while on Base when they’re Military police or can guns be carried on optionally no matter what your job in the military is
wow. how pointless of the military to do this. no wonder fort hood happend.
Posted in military guns | 3 Comments »
i doubt it because first of all i dont see the economy going anywhere in near future and the round is doing its job and doing it rather well so anyone see it being replaced and i know the Army and Marines are looking into new rifles now a days.
Posted in Military Rifles | 3 Comments »
I guess there’s a huge market for killing and death these days. Just give me a gun and tell me who to kill. I’ll do anything for a job. I mean it’s not just a job it’s a career.

Hey every one,
This is my first question on yahoo. I’m 20 years old, and want to be a police officer. Its a long process, and I got really far into it. Things where looking good, and promising, tell I was notified today that I was not going to be considered for the job. I cant reapply for two years now.
On that note, I am really thinking about joining the military. I shoot on a tactical rifle team (with M4′s and such things) and our team also shoots Airsoft for training. I like helping people, and as always the guns and toys. Although I was thinking of the Army, all my team members (who most have been airforce) tell me I don’t want to join the army, and the airfoce is the way to go.
My biggest fear of joining the airfoce is that Ill be stuck some where in the green zone and not get to do anything. No one wants to get shot at, but I do want to see some action.
Every one talks about how much better everything is in the Airfoce. Is the Army really that bad?
Ill also add that I have my GED and my COMP TIA A+ (although I’m not that interested and doing computers in the military) I didn’t have any problems passing the agility tests for the police force, and when maxing out, come very close to the airfoce requirements for max points.
any info and feed back from you all will really help.
Thanks,
