My great grandfather was a decorated officer in the US Airforce during the Korean War. My great uncle has a display case with his medals, and his service rifle, which is a select fire M2 Carbine. I haven't inspected it closely, so idk if it's functional or demilitarized. If it is functional idk if it registered or transferable.

Has anyone heard of a scenario like this before? I can't find any examples online of an officer being given an M2 when they retired. I'm also certain that it is an M2, not an M1 Carbine.

My great uncle plans to give me his guns, including that one at some point in the near future. Obviously I hope it's transferable, but I think that could only be the case if it was registered when he retired. I doubt that he submitted any paperwork for it later in his life, and I know that my great uncle never did.

Any thoughts or advice?

It COULD be a semi-auto built on an M2 Carbine marked receiver, as M1 and M2 Carbines have identical receivers, the full-auto and fire selector just attaching in there. The only true way to tell would be to test it or to take it apart and see.
The annoying part here is that the ATF tends to regard a receiver marked with M2 as just being a machinegun, whether or not it actually has the full fun parts installed or not, but they are also not consistent in this either, they have allowed M2 marked receivers as semi-autos, and they have allowed overstamps, but only sometimes.

I would seriously look high and low to try to find any tax stamp and paperwork for the thing if it's an actual M2 Carbine, it's possible that it is registered. Potentially, the full-auto conversion parts themselves are what's registered as the machinegun.

If it's not, well, I don't like to suggest people break serious laws, but I also don't like seeing historical weapons and heirlooms be senselessly destroyed, so my gut instinct would be to take it apart and store the parts hidden somewhere, packed in some good preservative grease, for in case laws ever change or there's another amnesty.
You WOULD be taking a very serious legal risk by doing something like that, so I can't exactly recommend it, but I would fully emotionally understand that approach.

Plan C would be to torch cut the receiver and then have the gun rebuilt on another one, but it hurts to even say that.

Still reeling from the sheer retardation of the Battleship proposal, plus that it'll be replacing the DDG(X) project.

But the FF(X) looks good. It won't have VLS in it's first flight, but it'll have an established supply chain and available logistics for repair and maintenance. As long as they don't try to make more capable than it needs to be, i think it'll be a good boat.

Here is how tanks can win.

The chain doesn't need to be very thick, just strong enough to support a very high RPM, and also collision against drones.

Even if the chain breaks, the spool can just release more chain.

There should be some dynamic counter weight to keep things balanced.

They have been trying to improve their long range AA missile for about 15 years, i have confidence that they will make it work if only through pure persistence. The software aspect is something they should be somewhat competent at, any delays would be due to them insisting it be proprietary and weird.

He's leading, they want dynamic shots of him and his entourage doing something. If they chose the moment he points at where they are walking to next everyone is in motion. It reinforces the fact that he is rushing around doing On the Spot Guidance, it's a major component of their nation mythos. He's inspecting something on a daily basis, sometimes multiple locations.

It isn't entirely propaganda. It is a small nation so he really does eventually inspect everything. If nothing else it ensures he is acquainted with the basic processes behind how everything works, of any world leader Kim probably knows his nations capacities the best simply because he's looked at them all.

Imagine if if the US president was watching 4-5 hours of 'How It's Made' with only US companies featured on a daily basis, that's how i imagine the effect would be.

Not OP but I just recommend finding the cheapest model you can and starting from there. A receiver, bolt, and trigger group will cost you what a regular 1103 would last I checked, even just take-offs (usually from builders who toss the OEM parts). Also what the FUCK did Ruger do to their catalog? There's only the 1103 left for the carbine tab.

You’ve been able to detect people in real time for ages with minimal hardware. The requirements for a hunter-killer fully autonomous drone are totally different.
>>64686428
Even with something like a raspberry pi 5 or nvidia jetson Nano it flickers. A person gets a branch in front of a third of their body it’s not going to recognize it as a person. If you put it 150 meters up into the air and have it look down at a position it’s not going to pick out a person in the clutter. It’s not AI like ChatGPT, it’s not going to ”remember” that a person is behind a tree or car. It’s not able to deduce things. I’ve seen drones with image recognition like 1.5 years ago. If it was as simple as that ”hurr durr just have it fly towards the area then towards what it spots” that’d be done. It might work in an open desert but that’s not what we’re talking about.
>>64686646
Yes, because it works. Things like AI image recognition allow you to do it a lot cheaper and more accessible. If you know how a plane is going to look parked at an airfield you can train the model on it, have the drone fly towards that area using INS and terrain recognition for the path it’s trained on then hit whatever planes it sees parked there. Or for things like power-stations.
That’s an actually realistic fully autonomous mission impervious to EW. You don’t just slap a raspberry pi on a drone, train it on ”people” then you’ve got a fucking T-1000 with rotors.

This is the same sort of stuff I talked about, no shit there are actual uses for machine vision but being able to detect whether what it’s directly pointed at is a tank or not is not the same as being able to autonomously go attack a trench system.

This is a long one, sorry. If you're referring to the Militechs, they're around half the cost of 3810s and put on a decent-ish show (Buffman results table pic related) but they aren't as stout as the heavier, cheaper Alumina RF2. That one puts on a much better show against M855A1 (~20 hits stopped), which is ass backwards so I'm assuming the SiC they're using isn't very good. Comes with the territory. Plus, they've got a cheat ring and also come with the caveat of being uncertified Chinese plates from a company which could have gotten certified but did not for false reasons. Reason stated is that Chinese companies cannot be certified by the NIJ. That is false as seen with Longfri. You need to have an office in the US where the NIJ can go to collect samples for unannounced follow up "FIT" tests. The likely real reason is that Militech does not want any assets subject to US jurisdiction, which is alarming for an armor company. Test reports on Militech's site show BFD against 7.62x51mm M80 starting at 41mm shot #1, 41.6mm shot #2, N/A on shots #3-6 (so really you have to assume over 44mm, which is a fail), and most importantly no drop test. Overall not great but passable for cheapo armor. I think people are conflating Militech's plates with each other so some caution needs to be exercised with their lineup. Lastly, keep in mind Buffman is a Militech affiliate and it has to be assumed the plates they sent him were handpicked since they were going on video. Yours aren't.

In this case I'd suck up the extra weight / cost and go with LTC 19513s or Hesco 3411s if you need A1 protection. It's about a pound more, with the Hesco being heavier, but those two plates are edge-to-edge. The Hesco is NIJ certified and dead nuts. The LTC stops M855A1 very easily but shot spacing is wide per the Apex / Hoplite 3-shot test.

As a clarifying follow-on to this post, the "US office" requirement is only for Chinese companies. There are Euro-based armor companies with no US presence that are NIJ-certified.
There is no legitimate reason why Militech, after being in business for more than ten years, has zero NIJ certs. Guys like Adept have the same problem. They've had plenty of time and it is moronic to cut themselves out of BVP grant eligibility. NIJ certification is not that expensive relative to the benefits.
I gotta make Militech an infographic.
