>>65034545Why is it always the niggers with the most retarded opinions without a hint of nuance that bring up the whole nuance thing?
>>65035169NTA but (You) are literally a moron.
>>65035169And here's our first midwit experiencing cognitive dissonance because he never considered that a single issue may have more than two positions associated with it. He's only aware of those two because he receives his opinions from news and social media, which typically only provide two - the "correct" one, and the "wrong" one. Had he actually thought things through for himself, he may have realized that there might be more to it than that. But he didn't, because thought is difficult and simply choosing and agreeing is far simpler. He's not alone in this.Let's see if we get a few more.>t. is that anon

Anyone here part of the 94 series? I've got a few questions.
Is now a bad time to enlist in the 82 airborne?
>>65034585I'm pretty sure it is, though
>>65035742Is this really needed?
Whats the most stupid thing you know someone has done whit a weapon?(dont mind the photo, I dont have anything else)
>>65035559>Range owners insist on breathalysing usThose Eastern Euro gun ranges actually bother with that?Also being a bong I had just assumed they were all heinous tourist traps and probably had safety/instruction to match. I've been wanting to go do the same thing, plinking .22 all the time gets boring. But I don't want to go to some range where you pay £50 for 20 shots and 15 minutes range time.
>>65035065fag
Wife and I went to the range with another couple after talking guns a few times.This couple would lay hot guns on the bench and swap around between them. A few shots out of one pistol, lay it down, swap to another one.When I asked about this they joked that occasionally one of them would put a round into the grass a few feet in front of the bench when picking one up, but it wasn't a big deal.We have not gone to the range with them again.

Would P90s and MP5s really melt through armor like it does in my kinos?
>>65031391>>65031386Like with most sci-fi TV shows Jaffa armor performance depends entirely on the script. You can have it create virtual juggetnauts in one episode and then be virtually useless for the rest of the season.
>>65035250I don't recall the Jaffa ever being shown as 'virtual juggernauts', they're just disposable mooks designed for SG1 to plow their way through (or occasionally capture them when the plot demands it). Which, IIRC, is pretty much what the GOOLD designed them to be - neat little toy soldiers mostly meant to look impressive as they stood watch around a palace, or to die 'gloriously' in the almost choreographed battles the GOOLD fought with each other, and occasionally they'd get to brutalise some bronze age peasants who'd gotten out of line and needed to be reminded of their place at the bottom of the shitheap. It was honestly kind of funny watching Teal'c and Bra'tac talking about Jaffa honour, warrior spirit, and martial pride - considering that their entire species was just meant to be either decorative features or jobbers for their gods.

If it were legal for kids of any age to own and carry deadly weapons, what sort of weapons would be popular?
>>65030396We'd get a lot of pistols that are just videya plastic shells for classic pistols.In 22lr.

>>65031304Came here to post this
The DPRK has a far stronger projected and real naval strength (10+ decades) in the Pacific than Russia. The DPRK's Eastern fleet could beat Russias Pacific Fleet HQ simply by having their ship crews walk there.So how does this work? The DPRK become the defacto primary nuclear detterant for Russia in the Pacific? The Norks ships are more or less atomic missile platforms, is Russia outsourcing it's Pacific fleet to Pyongyang?
>>65034566No. The starvation-riddled shitshow is not doing anything, except starving even moore soon, when the fertilizer runs out.Russia will hand over control of Siberia to China in all but name, and the Norks willl be alllowed to die quietly for a while before being reabsorbed into China.
>>65034566did you change your tripcode you nigger
>>65034566>Is the DPRK becoming Russia's proxy in the Pacific?Seems to me more like Russia is becoming the DPRK's proxy in eurasia.
>>65035199I don't think so, did i mistype it? Let me post and compare.
>>65035491>>65035199I did in fact mystype it, i am sorry for any confusion.Also please don't use the word 'nigger' to talk to me, while i am very white a few of my family members are colored and i am offened by tne term used against me as all of the colored members of my family are upstanding citizewn.
>iranian backed militia uses fpv drone to take out blackhawk at victoria base in baghdadi fucking hate drones
>>65033937>what's the point of having bases if you evacuate them when a war actually breaks out lmaoFor some decades, US "wars" have generally been performing air strikes on goat herders.Getting into a fight with people who can throw ballistic missiles back could get a fella hurt, they don't generally do it.Yes, USA can certainly win any fight it gets into but they're pretty risk averse and the military strength is intended to win the fight without firing a shot. Having someone call their bluff wasn't part of the plan.The fact that it wasn't a bluff and Iran is certainly going to lose is cold comfort, US is still going to get at least a little bloodied from the missile spam before it's all gone.

>>65010731other way around, they could have won 1 out 10 in France the way they did and got high on their own farts and believed they could do that to the Soviets because no one else outside of France had a land army hence how they ran over the danes and yugoslavs and the soviets struggled against the finns
>>65033081We are bombing brownoids 24/7 without a break, plus their critical infrastructure currently dangles on a needle. Is holding turd worlderd on gunpoint not enough? Eventually mudslimes won't be able to sustain the pressure and they'll hand Israel the keys to controlling every strait in the middle east, which means unrivaled American hegemony for the next 100 years. We can finally build an ethnostate with the profits we'll be making: Complete control over oil markets would destroy china and Russia and their plans of Western genocide, so a couple of dead volunteers from our side is pretty much worth the payoff by obliterating their side's. Think about that.
>>65035348
We're undeniably in the age of the drone, modern militaries have very little cost effective counters to small mass produced drones, but that wont last, better detection and interception technology like interceptor drones, lazars, specialized ammunition, better EW are being developed and slowly rolled out, the Ukraine war will be viewed like how we view world war one, a strange inflection point of bad and outdated strategy meeting new more powerful weapons. the drone will eventually be just another tool in the arsenal instead of a wonder weapon,
>>65034686Kek.
>>65034079My brown friend, have you actually thought about the realities of operation of those systems?
>>65034926this, lets take the german gepard flak guns, they have a range of about 5 km, lets be generous and take that a single system protects a bubble of 10 km around itself, which would be literally the best case scenario, now lets see how many of them we'll need to protect kyiv - oops, we need at least 17 of them based on range, 17 systems for just one city, in reality you'd need more, taking into account service, natural gaps, range being not so optimal in the real world and so on, i.e. in reality we'd be probably looking at 25-30 at leastand then you start to remember that all of the systems need crews, (trained) people who'd work in shifts, people whom need to sleep somewhere, whom need to be fed, who need to be transported, and systems need fuel, ammo and other such thingsand this is with a pretty good proven system, which actually workstry to scale that for all bases, targets, factories and other such things and you'll rapidly realize how fucked things are even when dealing with basic bitch attack dronesthis is also for people who kek "why won't russians protect their factories with aaa teams" - lmao, you have no idea how insanely hard it is to organize this even if you have the systems themselves, let alone if you try to give them some shitty soviet zu guns
>>65035381>, they have a range of about 5 km2 km range against Shaheed. 3 km range spending 100 AHEAD rds ($100000) per intercept
>>65035394>100 AHEAD rds ($100000) per interceptEhm, ACKshually this is fake, I've personally seen those systems shoot down drones, it takes an order of magnitude less rounds to shoot down a drone. Often it's something like 7-15 rounds, sometimes 20-25. Rarely more.

>>65033148>>65028691This is that team you're talking about
Any experience with an FPC? I was considering the 10mm, but it has regular 15 round mags and no extended ones, and the 10mm m&p pistol i heard sucks and cant get w threaded barrel where the 9mm and .40 are both good so those fpcs would be "better" on paper with a companion gun
>>65032761>FPCFucking Pavement Chimpanzee?
>Read about how technicals are used in all modern wars because of how easy they are to make>Zero technicals in images of the Ukraine and Iran Wars???
>>65032114I wonder if there's a way to calculate how many people get killed/injured by the random bits of ordnance fucked into the air by celebrating Arabs
>>65028000Well, somewhat but not entirely. A lot of it is also for guerrilla warfare, take Libya for an example. They used technicals not due to stupidity, but because they had no heavy military equipment until much later in the revolution against Qaddafi.They are an exceptional way to provide fire support for infantry if you have no actual heavy military vehicles.
>>65028000Fortifications were the reason why 2010s technicals became so fucking wild. Before in prior decades, where thirdie fighting was mainly between militias outmaneuvering each other, it was enough to strap a 50cal or a recoilless rifle to your pickup truck. But in the Arab Spring wars of 2011-16, fighting over strongpoints in cities led to ever more heavier weapons mounted on whatever fuckin moves. AA guns became the new minimum for hiluxes, while dumptrucks, tractors, flatbeds, and bigrigs got dragooned as rocket launchers and SPGs.
>NFA general threadITT talk about suppressors, launchers, SBRs, etc.Just got an MCX and shot it with my Surefire RC2. It was a miserable experience.Anyone have any experience with the Huxwrx Flow 556k? Is it really as loud as people say? Does it hold up with full-auto/FRT fire?Also for those with launchers, what rounds would you recommend printing for affordable 40mm?
>>65031412Nta but also needs to move to a new building within like 40 days still with no new building in sight. So that's fun.
>>65034693There's 3d printable suppressor files online now so I don't think sharing prints would be an issue since it's protected by the 1st amendment. (I'm not a lawyer, this is not legal advice)
Do you know where you can find prints?
>>65035420Some UPS stores can do digital prints and you can get the file emailed to you.

I’ve looked at this closely, and one of the clearest, most tangible objectives of any ground move would be the small islands Iran took by force from Gulf states in the 1970s, especially Siri and Abu Musa.They’re strategic, symbolic, and relatively low risk. The U.S. could realistically help return them to the UAE if Iran refuses to cooperate, instantly creating real leverage in negotiations.Unlike places like Kharg or Qeshm, these islands sit far enough from the Iranian mainland to be harder targets for drones and short range missiles. That makes them much easier to hold and defend, rather than turning into constant strike zones.Let me know if you think I’m wrong here.Personally, I don’t see much value in targeting Kharg. If the goal is to disrupt Iran’s oil exports, the U.S. could achieve that at sea just out of the strait by intercepting shipments, without committing troops to a fixed, exposed position. Seizing the island would deliver similar disruption but at a much higher cost, with limited upside in terms of actual oil gained and a significant risk of infrastructure being destroyed.On top of that, Kharg sits well within range of even basic unguided rockets and the newest optic fiber drone systems, making it a constant liability to defend. By contrast, the smaller islands are far, already have airstrips and could support defensive systems, including short range interceptors useful to protect Dubai. Overall being far more manageable positions.
