A Minor Threat 0 Posted April 18, 2002 You may think YOU know a lot for your age... You should meet my friend Matt Kathmann... He seems to know EVERYTHING about the military like the back of his hand, he's only a freshman in highschool and he could build an M21 with nothing but some PVC pipe and a few paper-clips! He's a true tactical master-mind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
