Ft. Irwin, eh?
I remember that place from eons ago. My infantry unit came out there from Ft. Bragg for some training where the Irwin guys played OpFor as Soviets. Mojave Desert... man, that place was like waking up inside a Clint Eastwood western. Not a tree to be found, just rocky ground, rocky hills and desert, scorpions, tarantulas and those wild looking jack rabbits. There was a unique beauty to that place, just not a great locale for digging foxholes.
Anyway, back on topic. My provari mini gets the most use followed by an ea mod. I hear you on the boggerbox, I've got one ordered with the dna20 but I bet it would gag and puke (along with me) if I dropped it on the concrete floor at work. That happened with my mini. I laid it atop my jacket on some neck high lockers and then came out of the restroom and snatched my jacket off the top and the mini went flying. It had some serious velocity going and may have even hit the cinderblock wall before it hit the floor. It didn't even break my phiniac tank, just scuffed the delrin endcap, bent the carto 510 connector crooked and broke off the ming tip at the o-ring.
Provari takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin'
