Snarker Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 I know, picky picky, but it jarred me out of my euphoria and made me think I was back on the Russian steppes. Americans are awfully schizophrenic about the use of the metric system, but in WWII a .50 cal is a .50 cal is a .50 cal. Was this in CMBO also?

Siege Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 Damned metric standardization. I wish they would list a 2pdr as a 2pdr, .50 as a .50, and 3" as a 3". Switching everything to metric is nice and all, but looses some of the charm of picking different nationalities. -Hans 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
