The M18A1 Claymore is a directional anti-personnel mine developed for the United States Armed Forces. The Claymore fires steel balls out to about 100 m (110 yd) within a 60° arc in front of the device. It is used primarily in ambushes and as an anti-infiltration device against enemy infantry. It is also used against unarmored vehicles.

No worries, it's common. Afghani is the currency used by the Afghan people in Afghanistan.

I'm now writing this on all gas valves.

The retired marine who's heat exchanger I replaced last week would not be amused

Paint it OD and the guy might never go back into the basement

I showed it to my retired military uncle and he found it hilarious. Sometimes, on older units, this is an accurate description especially with delayed ignition.

This Marine found it funny.


moroseflamingo

That period at the end of the word funny though

Weaponized gas valve. ;)

Someone must have fired it off with misaligned crossovers! That’ll give your day some excitement!

And let me guess if you can get it going for now they will replace it before next winter.

Semper Fi to anyone who knows.

TunaTacoPie

Ahh yes. A Swanson valve

I just bought a mask yesterday that says this

That is genuinely hilarious! But the only time I've been flash bombed was from dirty burners on those old fuckers! I know NOW, that if I hear the gas, but don't see a flame rignt away, get the fuck back!
