My brother and I started out in 2000 --first order was for a few SUVs and putting some weapons in them for the royals in the Middle East....started this is Sept 2001 and what a boat load of alpaca crap we went thru with the licensing and export cotnrols. US State Dept----wth is this ....you guys are putting 50 cals into SUVs, shipping them to Saudi and your freight forwarder over there is Mohammad Atta..?
During the trials, had a wonderful opportunity to meet every FBI and ATF agent in the Western PA --funny what a bunch of rat tat tats will do to neighbors who love the peace and quiet of their farms.
That started us off, then we got into HMMWV accessories and now are major OEM suppliers of transparent armor and LED and IR lighting solutions to the military.
A few pics of our earlier vehicles and HMMWV and a nice 106lb yahooooooooo
The best part of the business is getting emails from the troops or visits and they show us pictures of the hits their vehicle took and how our equipment helped them..too good for sure.
Great pictures and very cool supporting our troops! Always wanted the pocket version of a mobile 50cal.. Maybe your company and Volvo can do a joint venture? :lol::lol:

I was the CFO of a leveraged buyout group, One of the businesses we owned was a salt operation. The picture below

Is this the mine in Canada? Heres a picture of a mine I'll be going into on Monday to field survey some Articulated Trucks. A lovely place to work. 1600 feet below ground and wet all the time mining lead.

I can't tell from the picture where the mine is. There are several large mines in Canada, ours was in Goderich. (Sifto Salt) The ceilings look too low in the picture you sent to be Goderich. The other large mine in Canada is operated by Morton Salt. (Windsor Salt) from Windsor Ontario. Are you sure you are going to a salt mine. Salt mines are not wet. There is no moisture in them, that is the reason records are store in them, because nothing can live with out moisture. A leak in a salt mine will disolve the salt and casue the mine to collapse.
