>here you go, son, its that rifle you always wanted!
>>65363558yeah and you're fat and any normal to chad dude would simply run up to you and beat your fat ass. quit reading and talking about guns online and get your shit together, fat boy
>>65363558They literally sell standard semi G36s to Europoors (HK243) that are nearly 100% full-featured.Blame US import laws that are specifically designed to make it as hard as possible to import any non-sporting (i.e. uncucked) rifle.
>>65363438What's that even mean? British children have already been raped over and over by Pakis, seemingly in the good graces of the British government, but their laws on rimfire guns still haven't changed in decades.Are you just spewing a bunch of retarded buzzwords to try to be funny?
>>65361169Stereotypes are 99% true in all cases. Exceptions are universal but they prove the rule. Japanese are weak nerd perverts , for example.
>>65363754Guns are legal in bongland for millionaires (landowners) and farmers, with the caveat that the 'definitely trustworthy guys with guns' police inspect your house once a year to ensure you're still definitely trustworthy subject with gun
It's supposed to be a semtex device for an undercar bomb, described as sophisticated, but it looks unbelievably crude and is that a match fuse? One of the strange things is that is suppose to be semtex dating from the late 80s early 90s but semtex has a shelf life, is it in fact something else home made? No polititics please (it's a hard left kremlin nutter trying to larp as the PIRA) just want the thoughs of people who known their stuff on explosives on the object itself.What mind of fuse/detonator?Is the fuse detonnator home made or commercial?Is it old semtex or something home made or something else?Surely that is far more semtex than is necessary to blow up a car?
>>65363643>it's a hard left kremlin nutter trying to larp as the PIRAThis could also explain what you are seeing as inconsistencies, they just didn't know what they are doing. As to semtex having a shelf life, it doesn't just evaporate after a certain length of time. The device hasn't exploded, we don't know how "ripe" it is.
>>65363706Wait so they literally just put gunpowder in a mold and then pressed it with a hydraulic press? I don’t know why but I always assumed there was some kind of detonation risk at high psi even if peak pressure was achieved slowly.
>>65363643I was trying to make a chocolate chunk holiday bread you motherfucker and you've turned it into a terrorist plot! Just look at him manhandling me bread!
>>65363879Nope. Shock has to be high velocity, thermal blah, stuff, potato.Find a book for the math.
Is plastique the same thing?
>Yup thats me youre probably wondering how i ended up in this situation
>>65363788This is why war fascinates me so much. War turns up all human experiences to 11. Every joy is felt by the countries as a whole, every sorrow is lamented deeply and solemnly. In conflicts where the good vs bad dichotomy is as clear as in this one, it's even more pronounced in the defending country, and wider world. The whole of society says as a whole "not going to fucking happen" and decides to do whatever they can to support the war effort, even in the smallest of ways. Making molotovs with petrol and styrofoam, knitting camo webs with friends and family, making the fucking country into a cottage industry for FPVs. And they're all happy to do it, because it needs to be fucking done. Here in Finland, people have been making all sorts of little things to support the Ukrainians. Some made metal wood stoves that could be used indoors in apartments for heat and cooking, venting smoke out the window. Small shit is constantly being sent up and more collected, since the beginning of the war, the large supermarket (it's the KKK one kek) near me has a plexiglass box where you can drop pretty much anything you want which you can buy from the store. It's never empty, and usually has stuff like first aid kits, sleeping bags, mats etc and it's been there FOR YEARS. In a very real way, war really reveals what kind of a society you have. Ukrainians have faults, but by fucking god, I am impressed by their resolve, fortitude, spirit, the real yearning in society to move beyond their past and into a brighter future, to better their society for the good of the Nation, and they'll go into the streets to make sure that everyone knows where they stand. I don't think I'll need to go into length about what kind of "people" the ziggers are here.In wine, there is truth about a person. In war, there is truth about the nation. I suppose it makes sense, given this comparison, that it would have similar effects to alcohol, but on a national scale.
>>65363298What the absolute fuck is happening in that video
>>65363873Just zigger things. Probably cube meat that refused to march to their deaths in the FPV killing fields.
>>65363788>Don't join if you cant take a jokeWas sort of my personal motto in the military, its not so much that things can and often will be absurdly hilarious, but there's a dark facet to it as well that fate is very, very fickle and you can be a heartbeat away from the universe's ironic sense of humour when it comes to the punchline. By all means laugh, don't laugh too hard because sometimes you're the butt of the joke next time when they're handing out the lulz!
>>65362324>Weren't some Chechens involved in ownership of Wildberries?No but Kadyrov tried to get involved to help out a buddy who was divorcing the woman who owned most of it.She had Dagestani protection though and it was a kind of corrupt proxy war of literal corporate raiding.

>>65363474When I was going through aligning them what I gleamed is there's like a 70% chance they're on so tight you have to punch them out. 30% chance you luck out and they're moveable with a sight pusher. Just luck of the draw what tolerances S&W factory gives you.I used a nice sight pusher and I cranked the shit out of it and the whole slide was starting to twist in an alarming way (no i wasn't catching the slide with the pusher just the base of the sights) so I just called it and stuck it in a vise with masking take on it. I used a 3/32 steel punch I'm pretty sure with a normal estwing claw hammer. I think the recommended method is brass punches and a nylon/brass gunsmithing hammer to be more gentle. You can also put pb blaster or wd40 around the sights for a couple hours to potentially loosen things up.
>>65363477>My buddy carried a 3913 as an off duty back in the day. I feel there were some magazine hacks.What do you mean magazine hacks? Also based. I should shoot it more often. It’s a comfortable gun to cc. I just never really got comfortable with it shooting I guess.
I see PSA has the Arex Delta on clearance. Thinking about purchasing one. Thoughts?
>>65363684I've heard good things, only personal expirence was finger fucking one at kygunco in like 2023 though. I remember liking the pistol then but can't remember any specifics. I like my arex zero
>>65363684Damn good deal, but personally I’d go for something a bit more widely supported in terms of aftermarket and parts availability. The CZ P-10 can periodically be had for not too much more than that, and it’s pretty much the peak of current strikerslop right out of the box.
Putin has ordered Pantsir towers to protect the Wildberries from Cresty bum-touching.How much AD is even left between HARMs, missile self hatred, idiot positioning, and rust/no gas?116 s1 at least pre war in category 1 as probably the oldest, but there is less info than on tank destruction.When will the pants truly hit the floor in the great egg insertion?Are they building Potemkin AD Towers?
>Pantsir Tower
>>65363717You're not making any sense. Maybe go to a forum that uses your native language and post about /pol/shit there.
>>65363717Pretty gud, I heard they shot down a stealth airplane recently. Boy, the Americans must be embarrassed about that one, eh?
>>65363717He gave that order so that if they keep losing Wildberries warehouses people will blame the boyars that didn't follow his orders.
>>65363717>Putin has ordered Pantsir towers to protect the Wildberries>Hear any slight buzzing >Fire away >Hit ozon warehouse >Oh no, what a coincidence
The Philippines is eyeing over 500 infantry fighting vehicles for its ground forces. Which IFV do you recommend?
>>65363503>most likely they'd get modernized M113 larping as an IFVYeah, unless an unexpected option appears, like the French or the Italians offering used vehicles at bargain prices.But under the current circumstances, they're probably more likely to send such vehicles to Ukraine, rather than offer them on the open market.
>>65363366OP is a faggot, worst case, he's a jeet>imginary russian IFV instead of BMP3>ZBD-97 which is stolen BMP3 larp and effectively just as shit, just not battle proven>(((AJAX)))>place swedish CV90 but not KTO Rosomak or that straight up upgrade called Borsuk>No Namer>no honorary mention of M113
>>65363389Thought the whole point of IFV is to turn infantry into cripples
>>65363503>>65363528are the turks looking to sell some AIFVs?the flips don't have much of a military budget so aren't going to be rolling gucci shit. the M113-based IFV is not a bad option here.
>>65363366An IFV is a transport, CV-90 and Ajax are not IFVs.
Just finished it after over a decade of just kind of acknowledging that it's "in my backlog" and putting off a playthrough>Used to think this game was about Navy SEALs for some reason.>"Oh sweet, game's about CAG Operators for a change.">They act like SEALs the entire time.No wonder the events of The Line played out the way it did.Anyway, what would have been the correct course of action for Walker and his team, given the circumstances and what they knew at any given time, in order to complete their original mission parameters and go home? Keep in mind, their job is to figure out what's going on and report back, and the CIA's actions have made the entirety of the Damned 33rd distrustful of any Americans sent to help, so they WILL shoot on sight no matter what actions or behavior you change, on account of not just their mental state, but also their orders, so "just ask them what happened" wouldn't have worked, and by the time Americans were shooting at them, it was too late to just pull out, and at that time, they still didn't have anything of worth to report back other than the 33rd is hostile, without any comms necessary to do so or any easy way out of the city. By the time it was clear just how much shit was fucked, they were kind of committed to do *something*. The game beats you over the head with the meta "none of this would have happened if you had just stopped playing" but what would the correct course of action been for Walker?Also, /k/ vidya thread.
>>65362158>>65362183Would've been cool if it was about shooting zombies or something, instead it's got some dumb story nobody cares about involving shooting gay little robots. Wasted opportunity.
>>65362488>but the big narrative shift setpiece has to be railroaded because there was no alternative branching plot lineYes, it kinda does. That's just how stories work. The game lets you choose how walker responds to events, generally with the options of bad and worse, but none of them change it into an entirely different story. The whole thing it's going for is the increasing amount of unhinged violence as part of that metacommentary you're saying doesn't count and either that scene or something similar to it kicks off walker's wild ride or the plot just doesn't happen. You would either need to write a whole other campaign where it just becomes the basic good guys save the day military shooter that the story was written to mock or find some far less compelling reason to contrive everything back on track. but actually no seriously >without player choice it becomes a linear storyline and it loses the metacommentary about the genrehow does a linear storyline not work as a satire of a genre of linear storylines? You had to explode the white blobs to get to the next level in call of duty 4 as well, but since this game does the same fucking thing and goes "yeah isn't that stuff kinda a bit fucked if you think about it?" with a wink to the player it's suddenly not making a commentary on it? I don't mind it if people don't like a story I like but it's really boring when people just keep finding different ways of saying the story shouldn't have happened if you think about it logically.
>>65360214theres the hunt showdown, if you want to cowboy max
>>65356106Again, point out where in the post I explicitly said that "There is no suggestion anywhere to stop playing or condemnation for not doing so."You continue to misconstrue my point about both games using the same narrative tool while admonishing only one of them for it.
>>65362760>zombiesIt would have been absolute crap, the drones are an excellent choice and they fit extremely well within the theme. The tapes are just a mcguffin to keep one going, they do the job. Receiver 2 expands on it fairly well too, but again it's just set dressing. Besides, Receiver is as gun porn as a game can get: if you absolutely need a human shape as a target it's clear you're interested more in the killing and less in the guns themselves. To each his own I guess, but there's plenty of games where you can shoot at people, while Receiver is basically unique.

At a time when even newly built battleships and aircraft carriers were becoming white elephants following the end of the war, perhaps even renowned, battle-hardened vessels were viewed as nothing more than candidates for the scrapyard.The United States, too, was unable to preserve Enterprise.
>>65363404I live in an actual first world country. You know, the kind that actually has battleships preserved? That kind of First World. The real First World. Not the fake kind of 'first world' that talks a lot of hot shit about taking 300 years to build a naval tradition right before scrapping both the navy and the tradition at the breakers, aka your curry-flavored 'first world'.>>65363505We're (almost) the last country in the world with preserved battleships and WW2 carriers, and we definitely have the most preserved battleships, because our closest competitor only has one pre-dreadnought preserved. Hell, we're the last country in the world with a proper dreadnought still afloat. The brits could have preserved one of the KGVs or something like that. Hell, even the Nips still have the Mikasa. The fact that the brits haven't managed to save a single one of their WW2 capital ships is insane. No carriers, no battleships, not even a heavy cruiser for fuck's sake. They've got, what, Belfast? And that's it. The only waves Britannia rules today are the migrant waves, and even then they can't really rule those.
>>65361243Warspite absolutely fucked.
This ship is a tier 6 ships in wows, it has an accurate 2ndary 152 mm battery so you can take the 2ndary battery extended range and improved accuracy skills for your commander. Dont take 2nd battery upgrade, use main gun accuracy upgrade because the guns are pretty good for its tier.IMHO Repulse or Renown is better for ranked if you are able to use dynamic gun sight for long range shots as they have battlecruiser dispersion. They are not as durable as Warspite though.
If JUST the museum ships and mothball fleet were activated by magic, and the actual navy disappeared, the US would STILL fucking mog the world.
This doesn't get talked about but there are box styles old and new, the various stuff you'd get in a 1979 Remington 700 box versus a 20012 Rustington 770 B(ent barrel).Just all things related, that come with a gun itself. (Nuggets used to come with belt pouches and oil bottles goddamnit)

discuss.
>>65363511I think the Chinook concept does it better, with an A-10 you have an aircraft that can quickly get to where it needs to be, and have guided rockets that can take Geran 2 and Geran 5s with ease. Out of an A-10 the range might be about 8-11km which is a heck of a lot better than the ground range which is only about 5km. At that range you have about 30 seconds to track and engage one of them. In the air you have about 60 and if the A-10 could track/engage multiple it would be a capable aircraft for drone popping.
>>65363562I would think having a bunch of aircraft with radars that can land, launch, and loiter just about anywhere they want would be immensely helpful in detecting and beating down widespread drone attacks at a moment's notice. I'm not saying the A-10 can't do the job just fine, but I am saying that it's time to let the old bird retire and get something more fit to the task of modern low-threat COIN/drone swatting.
>>65363588I don't think they can. Do you have a source for the "megawatts of power" they can output? Peak power on those case is well less than a megawatt.
>>65363595>which restricts you to super expensive precision ammunition only vs a few dumb 30mm HE shells, that has to be factored in IMOIf you were put inside a bomb casing you would be a dumb bomb.
>>6536337027% more expensive to operate with 33% greater payload is more efficient though.
This is my current inventoryI’m bored and wanna go gun shopping tomorrowWhat should I get?
>>65363499I’m a Naval Officer You’re not gonna talk to me like that buddy
>>65363501i apologize thank you for your service
>>65363423If you want goofy but fun novelty, then either a Shockwave shotgun with a brace, or if you want to spend the money on it, some kind of 9mm carbine (braced) with an FRT.I say that because those are fun, while you seem to already be covered by a rifle and pistol.Otherwise, perhaps a .22LR pistol of some sort, those can be quite fun, and are very cheap to shoot.
>>65363423Nice so far, my first two funz were a pistol and my AR. I suggest getting a .22LR plinker, whether that’s a 10/22, TX-22, Wrangler, or whatever is for you to budget
>>65363423For the price of a nice rifle you COULD buy a cannon.
>Shoigu, his arms wide.
>>65359976>pick one thing (the Simpsons or some shit)NTA but I actually did this with someone with The Simpsons once to make the point about how it kind of works for at least communicating conversational topics.I think the main problem we have is that at least as shown in the show, you kind of have a bootstrap paradox. You need the language to be able to communicate the stories first. You might not need language to say, understand that an image is showing a triumphant hero raising his arms but you need words to tell someone else the name of the hero, what a victory is, what arms are and what raising them is.I think a more plausible take would be a case where you can communicate basic imperatives or concepts with original sentences, but expression of more complex ideas requires these narrative references, kind of like how some languages use compound words. Like you could say 'that thing stopped' but to describe 'victory' or 'enemy' or 'dead' you'd need to reference the story of the triumphant hero.
>>65360586Yikes, can you be any more intolerant of someone's mental illness? This is a serious issue, bigot.
>>65360264>It's actually not that difficult to pick up on the Tamarian language by the time the episode endsIt's not that hard to understand the gist, no, but we see on screen they're able to communicate specific ship functions to each other.Considering this very episode features one of the Enterprise's several magical psychics this should not come as a huge surprise though.
