Exactly what I'd figured.
Because he does not know any better.
Makes me miss the good ole days when I was a rockets and missiles engineer. I used to carry samples of double-base rocket motor propellant around the country (airline flights) in my briefcase; I was responsible for certifying and monitoring the propellant production from a number of facilities and simply carrying all the samples back to my ballistic test lab was the most expedient way to keep things moving smartly along. For those that are not familiar with rocket propellant formulations, the old double-base stuff was very similar in composition to C4. 
And he thinks it's an AR-15
pffft. That missile can only take out one tank. An AR-15 can take out 30 tanks without reloading.

Scary, military grade.
You could beat someone with it, drop it on your toe, or prop open a fire door with it.
"Aries" is still hangin' in there.... We had hoped to get her flying again someday but the money has never been there.

You're wrong so many times anymore that I now actually feel sorry for you and your degree of ignorance that only YOU are too blind to see...

I happen to know of a few TOW & Javelin tubes/ Cases that a young Marine 0352 may or may not have dropped off. #empty aluminum tubes are scaryMakes me miss the good ole days when I was a rockets and missiles engineer.

Well, it is painted Olive Green.
I was also the EOD liason engineer for the stuff I was CFE.....responsible for keeping the guys at Stump Neck up to date on any changes or new stuff they'd need to deal with at some point. "Fun stuff" was everywhere...LOL.
I had a classmate at Norwich (the military college in Vermont) who was a Trust Fund Baby.
His hobby was spending the millions on collecting military vehicles. His biggest piece was a King Tiger.
Thought of Bernie when I saw the Vermont plate.
When he turned 21, got the proper Federal licenses to restore all to proper working order.
Vermont does not prohibit citizens from have working, modern artillery, or at least did not 45 years ago..
It looks like the Ghost Busters hearse had a baby with the Animal House deathmobile.
