Lord, please give me lolis and .22 rifles I could never afford.Post up all things at the intersection of Weapons and Olympics.(and damn but those italian military dress uniforms slap)
so who's like the babe ruth of this sport right now?
Oh yeah the winter olympics are on. When is the Biathlon?
how much does the cosplay cost?
>>64844066probably on NBC's website... last olympics I was more up on which biathlon girls to stalk. But we're gonna get shrink wrapped clam boys!
Ski Mountaineering (SkiMo)This one’s interesting: the discipline added to the 2026 program (sprint and mixed relay) is rooted in Alpine military mountain training troops had to climb and descend snowy peaks and move quickly on skis in rough, cold terrain.
María Costa Díez (Spain)Anna Gibson (USA)Ana Alonso Rodríguez (Spain)Marianne Fatton (Switzerland)Célia Perillat-Pessey (France)Lorna Bonnel (France)Hot chicks in ski mountaineering to care about.
May as well post up a schedule...https://www.olympics.com/en/milano-cortina-2026/schedule
Best biathlon girls:Dorothea Wierer — ItalyLisa Vittozzi — ItalyElvira Öberg — SwedenHanna Öberg — SwedenJulia Simon — FranceJustine Braisaz-Bouchet — FranceIngrid Landmark Tandrevold — NorwayFranziska Preuß — GermanyVanessa Voigt — GermanyDenise Herrmann-Wick — Germany
Why not a 4 man land nav or something? There is so much the olympics can do that is crossover but also definitely civilian.I've liked the hunting derived sports like clays and shit but something winter would be both traditional and inclusive...Ocean Canoe Whaling?(Snoop represent)
ok ok, bear with me...Alpine.Snowshoe.RESCUE.Haul ass up a hill on snowshoes and pick up a pill shaped 80lb sack and come back down.
CHINESE TAIPEI HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
>>64844101>Elvira Öberg — Sweden>Hanna Öberg — Sweden>same last name and country of originAre they siblings?
What is games security like? They pull off vatican shit and the Italian Independence day parade pretty well.
>>64844173praise jesus YES
>>64844171roger
>>64844171
I am watching but doing an other thinng and found this:https://germanhelmetvault.com/The soundtrack sounds weirdly like Counterstrike. Please say there are mod maps of the olympics. Right now the schizo dancing is peak.
Hey do we get the dogs with the hot cocoa barrels around the neck? Is that italian?
will they sacrifice the blonde girl they keep molesting?
Biathlon used to be badass as hell.
AAAWWWWWWW YISSSS 10TH MOUNTAIN DIVISION AD!!!!
>>64844221I still enjoy it but it's the human element, unfortunately it's not also a national gunsmithing contest. That germany wins eternally.
>>64844221The shooting events in general used to be badass.Or at least not gamer-fied bullshit.When I become King of the Motherfucking World, I’m going to demand they go back to using full power rifles. And also add in more action events. Actually, fuck it, Cowboy Action Shooting will be an Olympic event. Complete with the LARPing rules.
>>64844726CAS honestly... aussies, argentina, us, canada, outback russia, africa, ALL had cowboys.Although something in me wants like some forgotten proper english gentleman rifle sport, with stupid uniforms and rules you need AI to understand.
NBC website has a 44 minute minidoc on biathlon
>>64844203>The soundtrack sounds weirdly like Counterstrike.Haven't listened to that yet but does it include sound samples or something that remind you of CS? Because if so, check out samples of Distorted Reality 2 on YouTube. Before like 2014 or so, CS used that heavily IIRC. ...Then if you have the old (C?)T side intro music in your head, go listen to Spyro 2's Hurricos and have your mind fucking blown. And then look at the composer of that game for another (unrelated) mindfuck.
>>64844884> ALL had cowboys.Yes, but as far as I’m away, only the US and kind of Mexico had a real method around them.Honestly, I just want it because the idea of some Cambodian dude rocking up in chaps and a ten gallon hat calling himself Rawhide John or something stereotypical makes me giggle.You could even extend to concept to other appropriate time periods. One Olympics have a cowboy theme with repeating rifles and revolvers, the next have a pirate theme with flintlocks and blunderbusses, and the one after that being Cold War with FALs and Hi Powers or something. Do something fun with it.
Apparently I spoke too soon about Italy not including music made by Italian artists. Immediately recognized Prisencolinensinainciusol lol. Anyone recognize the electronic song that fades in after or was it made just for this? I'm waiting for some Italian House or EDM or something to pop up but I gotta say my knowledge in much other than German and British music in those genres is minimal.>inb4 we get some Sandy Marton(I'd shit a brick)
>>64844046Everyone uses air rifles now because ballistics are more consistent. This isn't only about safety but also in terms of accessibility for noguns nations.However modern airguns are more powerful than .22lr, so it's not a problem for target shooting. There is nothing much to talk about besides airgun brands.
>>64845194> in terms of accessibility for noguns nations.Irrelevant when a lot of athletes already train in the US anyway. Plus, it’s probably easier to find an accessible shooting range than it is to find a sliding track to train on. Plus, the surfing event being held on the other side of the planet from the host nation last time shows that they can find other places to hold events if they really want to.They can dress it up however they want to, but the real reason why there’s so much decay around Olympic shooting sports is because the Olympics are run by anti-gun Eurofaggots.
>>64845194They use airguns because the IOC is a bunch of corrupt jewish niggers and the last thing they want people to get into their head is that you too can practice with a firearm (and maybe pose a threat to them). If they could use lasers and gear that ratchets into a locking position they would and then retards like you would brag about how Ting Ping Ding Dong (5'2 93 lbs) winning gold at 10m "pistol" means chinks are superior at shooting.>but the countries without gun accessSucks to suck, maybe they should let their citizens have guns.>but the physical variancesYes and? That's always been the point of the olympics. Only the most elite get to compete and win, and being able to see a target through pistol irons at 50m, or adjust windage on the fly, or know how to understand how the ammo you're given is grouping is part of that. It's also about overcoming whatever nature throws at you because like any human endevor we are, if not at the mercy of, at least partially constrained by environmental factors. Nobody doing ski racing demands the course be on an entirely synthetic manmade surface in a climate controlled environment to eliminate all the variables, it's part of the skill set.>but airguns are more powerful than 22s now!And you're a gunless cuck in a gunless cuck country that couldn't get one because of muzzle energy laws.
>>64844906Actually I have been, I got bored with so much shit I decided fuck everything I'm learning synthwave shit. I still have to pick out a real analog synth as I'm MIDI to PC with VSTs right now but fuck me they're intimidating.
>>64845139But fucking Mariah Carey? That was a curveball.
>>64845855Airgun mechanics are more repeatably consistent they have decided that "knowing your loadings" and all that is irrelevant to the skill of the act. It's gay as hell but they can't un-violence sports either.
>>64844184Would. Fortunately, I belive in polygamy.
>>64844067Oos, I checked. Easily the best country uniforms.
>>64845891Yeah WTF that was something, lol. When they went into Prisencolinensinainciusol and then afterwards went into the 80s/90s ski outfit section, I thought "oh here, it's going to somehow work its way towards a very recognizable Gigi D'Agostino song or some other Italian electronic artist" but then it just ended lol. And Prisencolinensinainciusol was a whole 15 seconds, or at least that's what it felt like.
>>64845944God damn that's based, I wish they had religiously required short bows or something. And why no horse archery ffs?
>>64846034ughhhh anon fuck you lol I lust for Molly D'agostino if not 100% her music
>>64844046The Winter Olympics is terribly racist. Barely any POC competing. What gives?
>>64846597They make up for by including countries that are either imaginary, used to evade sanctions, or make people feel better. You think Eritrea, Benin, Bolivia, Colombia, Malaysia, Nigeria, Pakistan, Puerto Rico, San Marino, Singapore, Uruguay, Venezuela, and The Principality of Etu are serious winter olympic countries?
>>64845194> airguns are more powerful than .22lrIrrelevant because they shouldn’t be using .22 either
>>64844173At the opening the guy in the ticket line vaguely waved the beeper rod at me.I know they had carbinari there though>>64845139I don't know much about the music, but they had a dj there the entire time.>>64845944Yeah Mongolia by far had the best unis.From the stands the Americans looked like they were walking around in bathrobes BAKA my head>>64846597Don't discount the fella from benis
>>64844067The corazzieri have a nice uniform.
>>64846597>an entire bit of the opening ceremony was dedicated to racial stereotypeI admit I laughed though.
Who's /k/'s olympian, all time? Any decorated vets go on to win a medal like, ever? Anyone got cool historical stuff?
I want a 1827F but I don't want to spend $5000 ffs
>>64847257>carbinaridressed to the nines every single time.Nice you got to go! Hope it's fun. Did you meet any lolis?
>>64847536>1827Fhttps://www.bertrand-malvaux.com/en/p/37514/fusil-d-infanterie-modele-1777-corrige-an-ix-restauration.html(out of stock)
>>64847384I'm not sure which one gets me harder
The Olympics needs some form of sword fighting that isn't some ridiculous french nancy fairy shit.
>>64847384Any chance this stops a sword, for argument's sake?
>>64847558hey hey heyyyyy fencing is funt. foilist / sabrer
>>64847558Full Metal Jousting was there to show us the light anon, we did not see God's love.
>>64847565FMJ was a trip. Im glad I saw the recomend here a while ago.>ER visits>that Jake redemption arc>punching horses in their face
>>64844046>Lord, please give me lolisBurn in Hell pedo filth
>>64847562It's steel, so I'd assume so.
>>64847591Lolis appear young. 18 y/o figure skater counts.
>>64847576INTHE BALLS
>>64846817>Eritrea, Benin, Bolivia, Colombia, Malaysia, Nigeria, Pakistan, Puerto Rico, San Marino, Singapore, Uruguay, Venezuela, and The Principality of EtuBig on ice.
>>64847562I've held a Corazzieri cuirass before and it was much thicker than I expected. If you were to hit hit ever so slightly diagonally I wouldn't be surprised if it could bounce off a few 9mm hollow points. Historically they have stopped spears from horseback so they are sturdy
>>64849065idk maybe this isn't the tightest thread but I don't want to enjoy my olympics with /pol/ or some shit. Ski events have been fuckin awesome, especially that freestyle downhill with like 3 rails and 3 ramps.FUCK LINDSEY VAUGHN DOWN AGAIN!
>>64847543>Did you meet any lolisFirst of all, cool it with the semitic remarks.Second, if I was out meeting women I wouldn't posting here would I? >>64847562Without even looking the name of those guys up, they just look like a heavy cav unit. The cuirass plate was specifically meant to block weapon attacks while they were charging, even possibly up to muskets depending on century.>>64849065>bounce off a few 9mmDoubt. That ain't tool steel.Yall might be disappointed considering the earlier discourse, but I picked the men's 20k biathlon to watch. I want to see Olympians at the very top of the game, not with the difficulty dialed down.And other stuff as well ofc.
>>64849265>Second, if I was out meeting women I wouldn't posting here would I?Wait, are you asserting that 4chan is a pre-prophylactic?
>>64849265>Without even looking the name of those guys up, they just look like a heavy cav unit.They are basically the personal guard for the President of the Republic.
>>64844137Avalanche survival time trials
>>64849280I'll assert that autism is.And the spear/net board of a Vietnamese fish mongering forum will pull in a crowd with a higher percentage of autism.>>64849295Sure nowadays, are you saying they weren't originally a cuirassier or lancer unit? I wasn't trying to imply they were still charging down routing armies from horseback.It's like the Swiss guard, the swiss landsknecht from the medieval era dressed in a similar fashion.
So how come the olympic 50m rifle sends /k/ into a froth but the biathlon shooting is fine?
>>64849305>cuirassierThey are, the regimento corrazierri, curassiers regiment. Equivalent of the bong household cavalry
>>64844046Obviously we idolize and elevate our athletes as heros and favor the sport of choice. From biathalon to pentathalon, the Olympic athletes are the symbols of dedication, endurance and achievement that we all lack irl and seek to vicariously syphon self-esteem from as our heros. Plus, lolis lamo.
>>64844137Can I get a Saint Bernard with a cask of fine whisky around his neck? Or enter in sipping hot cocoa in the lodge instead?
>>64844046
>>64849346Wife right there.
>>64849310I'm sure they're prestige now but as a unit do they have historical glory? Or just the job for the good old boys?>>64849265No that's a good event, so what is the system like? ticket per race or package.... or just you're in and you can go to anything?
>>64849346NOW THAT IS DISCO
>>64849307It must be the other half of military pedigree carries it.
>>64849265>Doubt. That ain't tool steel.I had FMJ from my 40SW bounce off cheap ass cuirass repros that could be penetrated by my glock knife. I still think they would resist a few rounds unless it was some +p+ full brass penetrator
>>64849408>just the job for the good old boys?He doesn't spend hours polishing his useless armor humming John Cougar Mellonhead's 'Glory Days'...
>>64849418https://palazzo.quirinale.it/corazzieri/caserma_en.html>>64849422I though everyone did that.
>>64849408>do they have historical glory?As a unit they always were the Honor guard for either the Prince or the King, they didn't have an active role in battles (outside of a few instances in WW2. The personal soldiers were often the best from their previous units and were picked from those.Nowadays they are selected from the Carabinieri on a voluntary basis if they meet the requirements and pass the selection.
>>64849431It's completely gay they don't have to duel knife weilding mafioso assassins.I wonder how the guard is for the Serious Families like Gucci and Ferrarri and shit.
>>64849435>mafioso assassinsYou mean our politicians? They wield laws nowadays instead of melting kids in acid.
