Short bursts only but it seems pretty fucking amazing. These can probably be used to annoy the fuck out of fixed positions at night, since they can fire into trenches from that angle

This reminds me of the suicide drone that killed the zigger on the dirt bike. Sure it got him but Russian lives aren't worth anything about the dirt bike was probably like, $2000 or something? Vs the cost of a suicide drone. Just gunning idiots down and returning to base is many scenarios is more useful than kamikaze attacks on things that are worth less than the drone itself

ah yes the muh nukes cope
China has enough nukes to damage, but not destroy, the united states; it could perhaps destroy any random smaller NATO or US allied nation, but it's options are fundamentally limited to
>nuke various western capitals (short term damage long term very little damage)
>nuke the US (significant damage to the US, but not crippling)
the US on the other hand, and its' allies, have enough nuclear weapons to turn china into glass from the pacific coast to the ghobi desert. Unironically we could win a nuclear war with china, if it came to that.
>>
>>61660633
The key thing to understand is that given china only has a couple hundred warheads, they only have enough for either
>a limited counterforce strike (e.g. some bases, a couple carrier groups, some centers of government)
>a limited countervalue strike (major cities and production centers)
>a mix of both which substantially damages, but leaves mostly intact, both civilian/industrial capacity and military capacity
It is fundamentally limited in that it does not have enough warheads to totally cripple the west as a whole - unlike russia which arguably does, assuming their missiles aren't total bullshit like I sometimes suspect

The US and its' allies on the other hand have the capacity to glass ALL of china, counterforce and countervalue, although countervalue won't be necessary when they start eating each other from the starvation. You cannot win a nuclear war, but against china we absolutely can - this is proven by the fact china is actively seeking to build up more nukes, surely if china already has the means to obliterate the west then they don't need to risk the geopolitical stigma that comes with nuclear buildup don't you think?

I would finally add that regardless of the scenario china chooses - limited countervalue, limited counterforce, or a mixture - all you would be doing is guaranteeing that the VAST majority of the population which would survive would be more than eager to support any and all efforts to neutralise china. You vastly underestimate the anti-chinese sentiment bubbling under the surface of american and western society.

>this only works because neither side has an air force by any modern measure
By that standard nobody does.
Outside of a Day 1 Desert Storm air raid there's no fucking chance a western country that's not the US can fight a Russia analogue by shitting all over artillery with aircraft.
Oh, you're coming for my artillery? Fuck you, SAMbush. I told my crews not to be retards and that was enough to evade your dollar store SEAD. They only turned on the radar at the last minute, now you're gonna have to explain to concerned parents why their sons are getting the mobik correction procedure by Chechens.
Oh you cleared my artillery tubes? Feel free to start breaching my minefields, they're so vulnerable... Fuck you, shoot and scoot with rocket artillery. Your engineering units are tucking tail and running away and your aircraft weren't able to respond.
And if the two sides have a modern airforce by said "modern measure"? BVR will make the use of aircraft against artillery impossible. The only way air power would win is by nailing the first day. Destroying the defenses before they disperse, targeting long range early warning and bombing the enemy aircraft while they're on the ground so you'll never have to fight them in the air.

Can we talk about gun minimalism? I'm relatively new to firearm ownership, have a pretty generous hobby budget and I'm trying to not go overboard with frivolous purchases as I have in other hobbies in the past - I don't want to end up with a bunch of shit to resell. What in your eyes constitutes gun minimalism and quality over quantity?

You shouldn't be chasing for spec values but they do exist and if you wanted to know what "better spec" values are there's a way to know which unit is desirable over another.
Most retailers won't post this info as they build NVDs to order, first come first serve, and depending on their grading scale of high, mid, low tier it may differ from retailers. If a retailer offer a “ready to ship” fully built units they will list the spec values. Hand select is an option from retailers that will try to match to your spec requirements.

Why did so many people start falling for this “citizen soldier” bullshit? Advertisements now routinely feature models dressed up as soldiers/SWAT officers to market a handgun to private buyers, and it appears to be working. A great example is when STI rebranded themselves as Staccato. A company that made high end 1911s for competition decided to paint them black and sell them as duty pistols, and they’ve never been more popular. Other manufacturers have jumped on the bandwagon and now competition gun features like flared mag wells, tuned SA triggers, gas pedals, and compensators are being pushed as things that you need for a self defense gun.

Some of the worst examples are from Sig, but Walther is catching up, and I wonder when things got this way. Did it come from people who grew up on video games, people who panic bought their first gun and never got past the panic, or what?

In it, she implies that even though the Russians would be totally aware that the Norks launched a nuke and blew up Washington, they still refused to take a call from the US to inform them the missiles launched for a counterstrike are not aimed at Russia, because it wasn't the President calling and just an underling.
