What's up, guys? I'm Kenneth, or just Kenny. I am currently an MCJROTC cadet and planning to develop a career in computer science or engineering (depending on what's available). I joined this website at around June 4, 2009. Well, how am I suppose to start this off? An autobiography about myself? A speech, hmm? Well, I would just start with my early years as an IMFDB user. How about simplifying it in a few key points, hmm?

Me in my MCJROTC (Marine Corps Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps) Utilities uniform.

Gun Pictures

Holding a Savage Model 12 at the firing range. The Savage Model 12 I am using is chambered in .223 Remington, which is a cartridge similar to the 5.56x45 mm NATO rounds.

A Colt Match Target with a Magpul CTR stock. To its right is a .30-60 Springfield Ruger hunting rifle, and two M1 Carbines. Other weapons that my JROTC class also fired are the M1 Carbine, Mk. 12 SPR, Heckler & Koch Model 512 shotgun with a tactical flashlight and spare shell holder, and an M1903A3 Springfield.

Me and several of my JROTC classmates firing .22 Long Rifle guns.

Firing a heavily customized Smith & Wesson MP15-22 (not the same rifle as the 2nd image above, which has a forward assist and is not chambered in .22 Long Rifle) with a Bushnell Holosight, Magpul CTR stock, Knight's Armament R.A.S. rail system, and an unusable tactical flashlight.

The same Smith & Wesson MP15-22 above on the firing mat with its "chamber flag" in place.

The historical and widely known M1 Garand with its "chamber flag" in the chamber.

Firing my M1 Garand. This weapon had moderate recoil and accidentally whacked me in the cheek due to my head being positioned too close to the rear sight.

Firing the M1911A1 at the firing range. The M1911A1 used was a reproduction version by Remington.

The brass of all the cartridges my JROTC classmates fired from left to right: 12 Gauge, .30 Caliber/.30-60 Springfield in an M1 Garand clip, .308 Winchester/ 7.62x51mm NATO, .223 Remington, 7.7x58 Arisaka, .22 Long Rifle, FN 5.7x25mm?, .45 ACP, and some unidentifiable brass.

Screencaping

I usually buy/rent my movies from iTunes (either in HD [occurs more often] or in standard definition) and then use Snipping Tool (automatically comes with Windows 7) to screencap. If I am watching a movie from a DVD or Blu-Ray, I use VLC and select the "Snapshot" button. I then tweak the screenshot with Photoshop or use the video settings in VLC to adjust my screenshots with sharpness or correct it.

Drawings

Here are drawings that I drew(I am good at drawing simple weapons like the M1911A1, but can't draw humans good somehow). I'll try to upload more.

A drawing of a Colt .38 Super converted into a machine pistol with the Muzzle break, Thompson front pistol grip, and extended magazine. Note how I suck at drawing the front grip.

This is an earlier concept of the M1911A1 I originally drew. The top one wasn't perfect with the suppresor and the left one looks more like a Desert Eagle. The right one was my final drawing.

After drawing my pistol, I tested out my drawing into a complete drawing of a bank robbery. You can see the close up of an M1911A1 machine pistol firing. Note the 2 M1921AC Thompson in the background and the 2 extra M1911A1s. I really suck at drawing hands and people.

My drawing of various guns all drawn by me with some mistakes. These guns shown here are also some of my favourite guns. This picture shows an M1928 Thompson, an M1A1 Thompson behind the M1928, an M14 fitted with a sniper scope, a Model 24 Stielhandgranate, an M26 hand grenade, a SIG-Sauer P226, a Glock 17 with steel sides, and an XM177.

My Favourite Guns

Colt M1911A1 Pistol - .45 ACP. "The Grandfather of All Pistols."

FN Five-seveN - 5.7x28mm. Unlike the M1911A1, the Fn-Five-seveN uses the small 5.7x28mm penetrating rounds used by the P90 and has a larger capacity. However, this pistol is controversial for being available for civilian use due to the 5.7x28mm rounds being capable of piercing bulletproof vests.

SIG-Sauer P220R - .45 ACP.

SIG-Sauer P226 - 9x19mm Luger, .357 SIG, .40 S&W. Though both the P220 and the P226 cannot match the reliability and stats of the M1911A1, they are still good pistols.

TDI Vector SMG - .45 ACP. The best, most accurate and deadly weapon for CQB. The TDI Vector uses an advanced recoil system that draws recoil away from the shooter, allowing greater accuracy with the .45 ACP "person stopper" round.

Magpul FMG-9 - 9x19mm. Top in folded box form, bottom in folded out submachine gun form. A transformer-style submachine gun that weighs around one pound and feels like a smaller, more lightweight and accurate version of the Uzi.

KAC PDW, 6x35mm. A good, worthy, accurate, and powerful version of the M4A1 Carbine.

Heckler & Koch MP7A1 with Zeiss Z-Point red dot sight and 40-round magazine - 4.6x30mm. Unlike the P90 below, the MP7 is lighter, can be fired in the "Auto Pistol" configuration, cannot jam due to water, mud, sand, and dirt, more controllable, and features a grip to improve accuracy.

FN P90TR - 5.7x28mm. The FN P90's ambidextrous features, high-capacity magazine, bulletproof vest-piercing capabilities, and size makes it a great all-rounder for CQB, right next to the MP7.

MPS Auto Assault-12 - 12 Gauge. The AA-12 features a magazine (allowing quicker reloading), fearsome shotgun power, and reliability.

Beowolf - .50 Beowolf. The Beowolf cartridge is a round based off the .50 Action Express used by the Desert Eagle. The round is commonly used to stop lightly armored vehicles and improves stopping power at longer ranges.

Sturmgewehr 44 - 7.92x33mm. "The Grandfather of All Assault Rifles."

LWRC SRT - 6.8 Remington SPC. Unlike the M16 series, the LWRC SRT has accuracy, rate of fire, and greater stopping power than the 5.56mm rounds due to the 6.8 Remington SPC rounds the LWRC SRT uses. The 6.8 Remington SPC has greater velocity and impact velocity than a 5.56mm round utilized by various firearms and is effective in damaging someone effectively to knock them out of the fight. A very unique feature is that the LWRC SRT has the ability to still function after being drenched in the water and such similar to the G36, meaning that the user does not have to drain it in order to fire.

Accuracy International AWSM .338 Lapua Magnum. Deicing features, high penetration, accurate, and lightweight.

CheyTac M-200 - .408 CheyTac. Note: I did not choose this because of Modern Warfare 2, but because of its advance design that is superior to that of older bolt-action sniper rifles. The .408 CheyTac combines the stopping power and penetration of the .50 BMG and the weight and accuracy of the .338 Lapua. This makes it extremely accurate, portable, and have longer range capability.

AS50 - .50 BMG. Lighter than a Barret M107, unmatched stopping power, and an unrivaled and useful high rate of fire for a sniper rifle, albeit recoil can be very problematic when squeezing the trigger rapidly due to the .50 BMG round it uses.

DTA Stealth Recon Scout - .338 Lapua Magnum. A very adaptable and light (weighs around 7 to 8 pounds) bullpup sniper rifle that can immediately swap calibers in a minute to fit specific needs. For example, you can switch from a caliber that is intended for personnel (such as the 7.62 mm NATO rounds) to a caliber intended for armored targets and designed to penetrate through different materials (such as the .338 Lapua), which allows it to fill in the role of an anti-material sniper rifle as well as several other roles for specific purposes. This feature does not sacrifice accuracy, range, and rate of fire when you swap calibers.

McMillan TAC-50 .50 BMG. Very accurate due to the bolt-action system (which eventually helped score the second longest recorded kill by a Canadian soldier in Afghanistan), high stopping power and range, and slightly less heavier than the semi-automatic .50 BMG sniper rifles.

FGM-148 Javelin 127mm. Unlike most portable rocket launchers, the Javelin has greater accuracy, portability, and range.

Dillon Aero M134 with flash suppressor - 7.62x51mm. Despite the limited range, the Dillon Aero M134 minigun has unrivaled and intimidating firepower from the 7.62x51mm NATO rounds with great accuracy. The minigun fires at an insane and inconceivable rate of 3000 shots per minute. Unlike the previous GE M134 minigun, the Dillon Aero minigun can fire for prolonged periods, allowing the user to provide effective suppressing fire in the heat of battle.

Browning M2HB on vehicle mount - .50 BMG. The classic Browning M2 that inspired future machine guns.

..and finally, Tony Montanas' almighty 'Little Friend' from the movie Scarface - 5.56mm/39mm
