>All I wanted from this was for you to look at me the same way you look at Garand... even if it was just once, you know, that would've been enough.
>>64656071nta but idk why you're having a meltie. I just want a gf that's fun to hang out with instead of only knowing how to charge their phone, be bisexual, and lie. bitches nowadays think shopping and watching tiktoks count as hobbies
>>64646660Sorry, but Garand (and Mandy) are just better than you
>>64646660why did they make the rifle to look pregnant?
>>64646660Yeah but Melvin was friends with this guy named Eugene Stoner who put his patents to good use so it all worked out in the end.
>>64646660The Johnson was an excellent rifle. You could top up it's built in magazine with singles while it stayed ready-to-fire. Same as 30-40 Krag.But it used Short Recoil action (like a 1911) with 30-06. Pretty bold. problem with that was recoiling barrel meant no bayonet. In terms of recoil with same 30-06 round would be bolt action worst. Then the Johnson, Then the Garand. Then like a Remington 74/ 742/ 7400,Then a BAR. Marines used quite a few of these in War2.

>>64655763Stop it Mike.
>>64657337I suggest you to look up some info about Stalker movie. They filmed the Zone part of the movie in Estonia, in deserted factories and waste cheaps near energy plants. The falling ashes and foamy water you see in the movie isn't props, they're real industrial waste being managed soviet style. Also the director and several people from the crew died from exposure some time after the movie.

I know it's a generic choice, but I've always thought Operation Spring Awakening produced some really good photos.
>>64647437The defense of Wiltz during the Battle of the Bulge. The 28th Infantry Division had control of that sector and garrisonned most of the divisional staff in the town but they were so badly decimated from the Hurtgen Forest that when the Germans attacked the band was sent out to hold the town's defensive perimiter and cover the retreat because there was nobody else available.To the surprise of literally everyone, the band held the line for three days before they were forced to withdraw. Out of 60 men, 3 were killed in action and 35 were wounded or captured.
>>64648442I watched a video about this recently. Apparently they would have been more useful if they stayed in the air shooting people and scaring them away.
>>64647437Who: 131st Separate Motor Rifle Brigade vs Chechen fightersWhere: Grozny, ChechnyaWhen: 31 December 1994A 1000 strong brigade was ordered to go into the city without recon or support. Immediately surrounded, but didn't run back. While the rest of the country celebrated the New Year, 980 soldiers died thanks to the stupidity of their command. There are radio recordings between the commander of the brigade and Chechen commander. Heart-wrenching to listen to it, but I guess it's now superseded by stuff coming out of Ukraine both in terms of horror and scale

>>64647904Nothing against the Ukrainians, but that's more turkeyshoot than last stand.
What do we think about the Sig P211? or you guys are too poor for it?
>>64657032Ironically is what Sig did to save themselves from the P320 fiasco.
>>64656820SiG makes excellent equipment. Adding all that crap to one is try-hard heresy.
>>64656820A glib facsimile.
>>64656820wow, a 2011, so cool…The action feels nice (To my tasteless ass) the compensator works pretty well as far as I know and the decision to use P320 mags was pretty smart. I like the style too, if it weren’t for those massive front serrations it would look like something out of aaron beck’s art. IIRC the hammer and magazine funnel are MIMed and the guide rod bushing is plastic and has a tendency to break. And it doesn’t have a compless variant for the USPSA nerds it’s somewhat marketed towards. All in all I think it’s an ok gun, i’m sure their margins on the thing are way higher then they aught. But sigs gonna sig, why try to get that last 20% out of a product if you can convince some sucker to overpay for a riced up 2011.
>>64656866I'm an ecologist and make $19/hr
How does caliber work?I always thought it was the diameter by length of the "bullet", but now I know that the bullet and cartridge are different things, and that the numbers refer to different things.Please help ty
>>64652642I resent the assertion that I am "random". I AM NOT RANDOM.
>>64653059>bullet diameter x case length.250-3000, checkmate.
>>64652686My fav was always .257 Roberts. Designed back in a day when a guy in his shed could just invent new rounds, because.
>>64654625> Designed back in a day when a guy in his shed could just invent new rounds, becauseYou can still do that. But there are so many different chamberings out there that in all likelihood, you’d be duplicating some already extant cartridge.

I call it .22 loooong rifle
>>64642656Codename Chun Li
>>64653432Not particularly. I would like to do a .510" based on a shortened 458 socom. Basically .50AE with a .473 rim loaded with 50BMG bullets for big subsonics. Either that or 510wsm but I'm too cheap to pay for a magnum bolt.>>64653443>>64653488>>64653498Based thumpmaxxerReaming is a bitch I have some 7.35 carcano brass I formed that won't chamber because the neck is too thick.

>>64653799>.510 based on .458 socom caseIt’s a shame 50 Beowulf uses .500 bullets, otherwise it could have been like a 510 whisper for magnum (3.34”) actions.
>>64646474>gnomed
>>64656817.475 bishop short mag case would be unironically perfect for that…. Rebated rim that fits a .308 bolt face, .584 base diameter and .560 shoulder… 2.9 inch case length but you’d lose some taking the neck off…. Expanded out that would be the perfect starting point for a .510 ar round…. Not sure how obtainable the brass is though…. I’d love to play around with it but I think the company they were buying it from went under… so who knows

That brief intermediate of paper or metal cartridges with an external priming source. My favorite bit of esoteric weaponry.
In 1700, the flintlock musket was the most advanced standard infantry weapon in the world. In 1800 it still was. In 1840 a capping breechloader would be the most advanced infantry weapon. By 1860 metallic cartridge breechloaders were already taking over.
>>64657070Did you read my mind and started a musket thread? I was just going to post something. Basically I’ve started actually reading historical books on the revolutionary war. Now I’m getting interested in muskets. What would be a budget friendly repro from that time period that I could learn with or research?
>>64657091I remember reading somewhere about a group of frontiersmen who went into gold panning. They used the barrels of their old Hawken rifles as pry bars when they bought Sharps rifles.

>>64657310Different industry that dabbled in 07/02 work because said engineer talked me into it. We made magnesium alloy and titanium sidecharging ARs, but only had samples produced. Engineer got back into drugs after his wife left him made some MGs and suppressors off the books to pay off drug debts, he intentionally OD'd and left a confession. My fault for being hands off on the firearms side, but my options were give up my FFL and agree not to pursue a future FFL, or face criminal charges and fight in administrative court to keep my FFL. I'm not an engineer so I couldn't have kept the business going anyway, sold off the equipment, gave the proceeds to the engineer's daughter in a trust and called it a day. Learned the lesson that once a junkie, always a junkie.

>someone FINALLY made an actually improved AR-15 and not just copy and paste bs>it's Chinese and you will never be able to buy it
>>64655713>This is wholly irrelevant outside of competitive shooting.You could say the same thing about the charging handle debate. My only point is that the AR-15 style is easier under stress
>>64654153>FAL is just as bad. You need to bring the gun into your armpit to charge it.No it doesn't. You're retarded.
>>64656660You never know, the person you're replying to is probably a chinese munchkin that would struggle with a european rifle.
