Another of Imi's followers here. I love Krav Maga. I have never been in such good shape, felt so healthy, or so energetic my whole life.

I think I may get this.

PS3 PSN is EMS_WARLORD. Playing a lot of MW2 right now.

We use regular strykers, and powered strykers. I love them. Prefer a regular one, don't like the extra weight of the powered one. So much better than the fernos in chicago winters.

I always wonder the same thing. I asked at work, never got a straight answer. Talk to IMMC would be your best bet. I've been too lazy to do that as well. ^_^:blush:
