Nice to see you free j0e; We heard they had to empty the jails in Tennessee because of the virus.

I'd like to post this unclear image of the Turi Tribe research. The story how they became Shi'i is an amazing one. And because they were Shi'i they blocked the southern border of Kurram Agency to the Taliban and always looked on the British, Americans or Russians as their protectors. Bayazid Ansari was one of the great characters of the frontier. (I've left off 5 pages detailing the Khel's, septs, clans, etx.




Khowst Province Afghanistan - Someone before me had been in Laos during the 2nd Indo-China war days...all the rooms were named after bars in Vientiane.

My first encounter in 1975 in Karachi were with Baluch tribal members and from that grew an interest in the ethnography of the region and carpets, etc. Here is a simplified version of Baluch and their tribal structure I gave to the Marines (The Marines in Helmand Province wanted to blow away certain Baluch leaders - I got the to consider buying them...and their entire group - a better solution). I have a lot more detail on the sub-septs and families but since we're locked down, You all might as well know who these people are...if they are ever to be independent they'll have to dismember 3 countries (Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan) and get over their hatred of each other and their individual pride).







Date is wrong...from brother's post on the Randall knife boards - see "Magic Randall." April 29, 1978...Da'ud Khan was under air-assault in Kabul in his palace at this very moment, the Migs passing over the American embassy with bombs already falling....American School Kids from Karchi on the roof of the embassy with mouths open watching the carnage.

As for the Brahui....I met the King and his brother...Ahmadzai Brahui and have a carpet from their palace in my house now. I modestly think this is the best delineation of Brahui tribes since at least the 1911 Baluchistan census.

I read this entire treatise, because I like to get an idea how different people think, and what motivates them.

I'm thinking that you could generate some real intense interest if you would elaborate on the suggestive statement above. Sex sells. I'll bet Larry could tell us some juicy Arabian Nights stories that might explain his fondness and affinity for mooslims...


Voting for anti-gun Democrats is dumber than giving treats to a dog that shits on a Persian Rug

Maybe it explains Argos obsession.

King was getting beat up and tossed in a muddy ditch in Cuba while Larry was living large in Morocco with a maid. Doesnt seem fair.

And everyone thought Kings hockey threads were bad. (I liked them, King)

This thread is the most off topic, ridiculous thing Ive ever seen on this forum since I first logged onto it in the year 2000. What is it doing on a forum where we are supposed to talk about double shotguns? What does the Cold War and its terminology have to do with double shotguns? What in name of God does Brahui or Baluch have to do with double shotguns???? Nobody cares that they make crude copies of guns. So do the Spanish, Turks, and Philippines.

Argo44, I think you need to branch out and look for some other forums to put this stuff. . It doesnt belong here, its has no business being here.

You sure do have a knack on generating some of the most boring, over contrived threads ever devised on thus board, thats for sure.
