>>64393147>>64393494Grenade launcher on the BM59 is banned by state law, unless you know of a featureless one out there somewhere. Was personally looking at SVT-40s and G43s but that's more /msg/ than /brg/.
Anyone have any tips for moving into long range shooting? I really underestimated the drop off 7.62 had at 400 yards and beyond. I know its more of a /prg/ question but I figured I'd ask here
>>64393713This might be crazy, but what if you got a beater M1 and sent it to shuffs? Have it converted to take M14 mags and shorten it
On the topic of wood furniture, I'd like to replace mine. However I have a M1 not a M1A. Does anyone know if SAGE still makes the garand stocks? I found a website that claims to be SAGE but uh those prices can't be right and wants you to send payment through fucking venmo. Last i checked US tactical the only ones who seem to have the stocks for sale at all only have the M14/A stocks.
>>64394755860 isn't actually that far off from what they price the stocks off from US tactical but yeah that's totally a scam site don't give them shit
How does /k/ feel about this?

>>64394700>What the fuck corporations own guns?Any of them that sell them, retard-kun, all the way from the biggest big boxes to one guy in his living room hocking shit on Gunbroker as a side hustle. Those guns at your FLGS or Cabelas or Scheels or whatever aren't owned by the boomer behind the counter or by the manager of the store or by the CEO of the corporation - they're owned by the LLC.

>Sikorsky has unveiled a new, fully uncrewed version of the Black Hawk helicopter with a completely transformed front end that swaps out the cockpit for clamshell doors. Depending on how it is configured, what has been dubbed the U-Hawk can move thousands of pounds of outsized cargo internally and slung underneath, deploy uncrewed ground vehicles, and fire dozens of “launched effects” like surveillance and reconnaissance drones and loitering munitions.https://www.twz.com/air/uh-60-black-hawk-cargo-drone-with-clamshell-nose-breaks-coverhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zj7tjvTPwWI
>>64392781NTA but earlier this year I saw Boeing trying to mooch some free game dev student labor to build a system for stuff like this, most likely in Unity or UE. The odds that it isn't something half baked in a commercial engine or game are absolutely zero.
>>64391958>33 tons of cargo 100km in 16 hoursIs it just me or does that not sound like a lot?
>>64391847lewd robot-chan.....
>>64392514I'm going to guess that the cockpit and avionics and all the armor to protect the pilot is heavy as fuck
>>64392122It’s not perfect yet but Waymo is pretty great. Genuinely a better driver than the majority of my Uber drivers. This isn’t airplanes or helicopters yet but there is finally being tangible progress made for a product that carries humans. I could see the military having access to a “better than many pilots” level of autonomy within 10 years. Especially after OpenAI and friends realize that AGI isn’t happening any time soon and there’s data centers full of video cards everywhere and investors saying they’ll need to turn a profit and to focus on something tangible.

Any consensus on the Springfield 1911s? I shot a Springfield Operator a few months ago and loved it, was thinking about getting one of the more classic models.
>>64394845>Any consensus on the Springfield 1911s?Their quality and QC isn't much better than Tisas for 2x the price, but what you pay for is features Tisas lacks and a warranty service that if you do send the gun back you will get it back in a much better state than when you bought it new since they will have gunsmiths polish it up for you. Up to you if the extra $400 sounds with it for that, if not Tisas uses all forged parts unlike Springfield's MIM and you can get most models for under $400
>>64394839>I hate how much I enjoy the look of those grips on a JXP-10It's genuinely fucked how good they feel in the hand. Thing Meister does a great job and I wish they made grips for guns folks actually care about instead of making shockingly good quality meme grips for hi points. My stock JXP10 grips had a gap between them and the frame and it would pinch the webbing of my thumb every shot, so while I was sort of forced into getting them I'm very glad I did.
The crowbar is the best weapon that exists, allow me to explain why.- Not classed as a controlled weapon legally- Is classed as a dangerous article only- Is legal to take anywhere (with a reasonable excuse)- Can be used to thrust or swing - One hard hit is enough to knock a grown man unconscious - Can easily pry open car doors, house doors- Can easily smash walls, glass and boxes/furniture- Can be used to fix things that go wrong with vehicles- Is longer than a standard knife - Longer than standard hammer- Is only beaten by a sword, or an axePost your crowbars.If you don’t own a crowbar you lose.

>could have have been the next M16 in terms of great leap forward or firearm tech>all we had to do was refine it and work out the kinks just like we did with the M16>choose M14 2: Fudd Boogaloo insteadWhat causes this mindset?The Greatest Generation saw the potential of new firearm tech and admitted the M14 was a mistake but Boomers are just completely mentally calcified and refuse to move on.
>>64394569We were. Post-9/11 any questions regarding the legitimacy of the Chechen wars were put to rest as we had suddenly become victims of Muslim extremism too, and as a result of that perceived solidarity, the most we did for the Georgians was a strongly worded letter to Putin and a Conex of Bushmasters that all got captured. It was only really with Crimea and euromaiden in ~2014 that things fell apart and Russia faced any kind of repercussion. Similarly with the chinks, 9/11 made bush immediately leave Taiwan out in the cold and this persisted through the Obama years; handling both the Taiwan and Tibet issues with kid gloves so as to not cause friction with our new pal; and it was only really with Trump that everybody suddenly remembered they're our main strategic adversary.

I'm a noob trying to build a dedicated SBR to eat subsonic 300 with my surpressor. I want to just buy a complete upper but I'm struggling to find what brands are good. I'm looking for:>7 inches>Adjustable gas block>1:5 twistI've found a few random brand but idk if they are any good. What do y'all run? My budget is max 1500 if I had to, but I'd prefer around 1k.

>>64387615All those specs are why I went with the Sugar Weasel upper. Although I would prefer the rifle speed gas block.
>>64389158No gun is whisper quiet, anon. Even if the gun is far enough away where you can't hear the shot, the bullet (at subsonic speed) flying past you close by is louder than a whisper. Modify your expectations. That having been said...>still loud enough to require earproThis surprises me, anon. I admittedly have no experience with the 46m, but I have an OG 46. When I'm shooting 300 BLK subs, I remove my ear pro and so does everyone around me, with people new to suppressors expressing surprise that it works that well. 8" AR SBR, Keymo mount in case it matters or you care. It's a bit louder in a small basement but not painfully so, and I don't bother with ear pro there either if it's just a few shots. I'm not questioning your experience, but as I said, I'm surprised by it. The sound part, anyway. You should have known that it had pistol ballistics going in, and the accuracy thing is unrelated and something that you should address separately.>inb4 you're fucking deafI get an annual hearing test from my employer. My hearing is fine, and has been fine since 1999. I've lost a bit of my high frequency but less than I should have, given my age.>>64389264120-130 within reason isn't going to hurt you. Each shot is a momentary exposure, not continuous. Loud music from headphones (or God forbid, at a concert) is way worse. Given the inconsistencies in how SPL's are measured, my own personal policy is that if the sound is not uncomfortably loud, I don't bother with ear pro. (Unless I'm hammering nails into wood, which is uncomfortably loud, but I'm told that it's not harmful to my hearing.) According to the clinic my hearing is fine, so I'm probably not screwing up too much.I suspect that in some circumstances (and maybe not this one), the famed "tone" plays a role. I hate that fucking term but it's the best one that we've got, so I'm using it. Some cans just sound better than others, even when they measure the same. Maybe it's all bullshit.

This new American light machine gun is cool
Switchblade 400 is here. It slashes weight to 39 pounds, keeps the Javelin warhead, range, gimbaled optic and loiter time.Sub 40 pounds is Javelin replacement territory and they're selling it for the US army's LASSO contract. The 60lb S600 was fine for a vehicle but simply not viable for a normal infantry platoon on foot.
>>64393708Switchblade 300 is an incredible capability. It's by far the best way of defeating enemy mortar and MG team's without calling for inorganic fire support. Like an ultralight mortar that's also a recon drone.>>64394240>>64394265Switchblade 300 Block 20 has an EFP multipurpose warhead and other upgrades, likely implementing lessons learned in Ukraine. They also announced an upgraded Switchblade 600 with the SB400 release.
>>64394353A recent Ukrainian source claimed that for an expenditure of approximately 36 million dollars worth of Switchblades they've destroyed Russian equipment equal to an estimated 2.7 billion
>>64394353>Blah blah blah more thirdie copeIn poker terms a $100k platform that has a 90% chance of destroying a target is +EV to that of a $6000 platform that has a 80% chance.

A Turkish fighter jet successfully conducted a test launch of the domestically produced SOM-J cruise missile, hitting a naval target over 300 kilometers away. Majority of missile flight happens at very low-altitude, sea-skimming level.

They are the exact same people, and "Saka" is accurate to what they all called themselves. The "scythian" word doesn't need to exist. It's about as bad as "Xerxes"(Shahershah)

How could a non-American military launch Tomahawks? Purely hypothetically speaking, of course.
>>64393796>direct fire modeUnfathomably based
>>64393678>But he won't, because he's kompromatI imagine USA/EU has much greater kompromat on him than Russia does at this point. It explains why he has slowly come around
>>64392850Why would that matter? They wouldn't be anywhere near the front lines.
>>64393838The implication is that what goes around comes aroundRussians are hardly unaware of the American role in terrorist attacks in Russia
