I have to agree. 4 years and your golden... if you said 10, 12 maybe, I'd say ok, go to the Guard, but 16 years - do the 4 more and collect that retirement.

You really need to do some serious number crunching. What state do you live in? Do you have any disability coming? These things matter. In Texas there are crazy benefits for retirees.

What would happen if you lost your medical and couldn't fly - you'd be missing out on $4K+ a month.

I would REALLY think long and hard about this. As an 06 about to retire (12 months), I just couldn't imagine leaving all that money on the table until I'm 60. Also, if you go into the Guard or the USAR, you will NOT be able to get on any AD orders - you will be prohibited from coming on an order that could bring you into sanctuary. So PLEASE think this over - I think it is a really bad idea for you!
