Actually maybe I'm being unfair. We have no idea what the US is capable of and apparently neither do they. They thought this would be a two week special military operation and are busy finding out the same as everyone else.

Unlike Trump, Putin is unironically winning though.

Kostantynovka is half-captured and both Slavyansk and Kramatorsk will fall this year. There may be a spring-summer Kharkov/Sumy operation on the menu also.

For all the hype around swords being expensive, they really weren't. They cost about 1 week of a smith's wage. If you were an unskilled labourer you made half that and a squire half again, but that means even an apprentice could save up for one in a year or less if they really wanted to. If you have 3k in your bank account right now then you have the equivelant enough for an entry level sword

I haven't seen one in a good while. I'm seriously thinking about buying an AUG soon so I'd like some advice.

I know there's both 5.56 and .300 blackout variants to choose from and I'm leaning towards the .300 and just using supersonic ammunition. AUGs are notable for being poor suppressor hosts anyways, right? Plus, prices for supersonic .300 aren't that bad according to AmmoSeek when compared to 75/77gr 5.56 which I already buy. Plus if I ever change my mind about .300 I could just buy a 5.56 barrel.

I mean, the VHS-2/Hellion is a meaningful actually deployed addition to the history of bullpups, so from a collector standpoint doesn't seem like a bad one to have for completion. I wouldn't prioritize it either, it's not rare and not going anywhere so if there are other cooler bullpups you'd be better off keeping firepower for I'd do that first but still you'd probably want one in the end. Collecting is different from whether you think a given gun fits you personally, after all even bad firearms can be interesting from a historical pov.

I don't think the hellion is bad though just more love/hate then a lot of them.
>>
>>65042537
Yeah you bring up a good point about collecting, but I don't own any guns I won't shoot so there is some balance there too I think.

That's fair, not all collectors have that rule but it's a reasonable sanity check if whatever niche you like has a lot.
>Honestly I just need a better sale, like 1.2 or 3 for a 20 inch and I'm sold
Yeah if you're in no rush (and you don't need to be here) that makes a ton of sense, just have to keep an eye on various auctions and estate sales etc. They're common enough something will come up sooner or later. Tech industry guy I respected said something along the lines of "there are fewer bad products then there are bad prices", lots of stuff isn't like, out and out /bad/ per se but if it's overpriced enough vs the value one assesses for it still not a good buy.

I suppose you could argue "we" took an L by continuing to have to subsidise the place.

Point being, the British mandate was to re-assert British control of the situation where it was boiling over into almost a full blown race war because the RUC were in bed with the UVF. The IRA mandate was a united Ireland and prevention of UVF/RUC violence.

Who got their will out of this? well Britain got 30 years of deployment and Northern Ireland still exists with the UVF and IRA going at it on a reduced level.

There is a reason that they say IRA stands for IRanAway. We can discuss their tactics if you would like, though they mostly focused on killing civilians and fleeing at any slight sign of trouble or actual engagement with the British army.
>>
>>65045521
The issue is they /are/ the Irish since every paddy went on to vote for their political wing: which is why I have zero sympathy for Irish civilians or the Republic of Ireland. Had Sinn Fein ended up as some fringe, radical party, then maybe I would feel sympathetic to them - but no - they voted for them in majority.

To keep this relevant to military tactics it is even stranger since the IRA pretty much only terrorized and bombed their own people, even with extreme weapon shipments from Libya (including flamethrowers), which makes the political rise all the more confusing.

It’s delaminating like you said so you know it’s a legit eokek. Assuming it’s not stolen out of an armory If it’s a 2-0 no more 200, 3-0 no more than 300. Eokek will fix the glass out of warranty for about 70-90

Consider the pervasiveness of data collection on firearms enthusiasts through government/corporate surveillance; any purchased component of something that is weaponizable is an automatic leak/red flag to the system.
Your precious hydraulic tubes are all being watched and recorded as to who is buying them.
This begs the question; are you a bad enough dude to forge your own barrels? How about homemade metallurgy and casting? Treatment of existing shapes to make them strong enough to withstand pistol pressure, let alone rifle pressure? If you can't source your own barrels in a way that doesn't arouse suspicion, then attempting avoiding surveillance through manufacturing your own weapons is impossible.
Until this major hurdle is addressed, those championing 3d printing of weapons as a meaningful tool of political resistance are totally unserious and are shilling you gadgets.
Also unaddressed is mass production and raw materials sourcing, enough to arm and supply a squad, let alone a platoon or battalion.
The real force is not merely the gun, but the logistics behind it that deliver and supply more ammunition to enable it to keep shooting.

In a technical sense they have what are called "halfshafts", but that term is kind of interchangeable with "axles" today.
That's kind of a holdover from older engineering (or specific engineering texts), where axles and drive/half shafts were/are different things.

IE when you think about it, calling an FWD axle an axle doesn't really make sense, because it is not bearing the load applied to the wheel at all, it is simply transmitting torque to the wheel hub, which is carrying the load. It's just a colloquialism.
Also, FWD axles/half shafts are generally solid core, not hollow.

>I fucking dare you to run a glock 17 barrel milled to the same spec using home depot materials. Hang yourself.
Not him but saying X doesn't work because it doesn't meet commercial/military specs is beyond retarded.

"Subpar" materials sans Tennefer/FNC/Nitride coating might not last 15k rounds, but they won't straight up explode. As far as "if you can mill it on a bench lathe, it's took weak", yeah that's absolute nonsense.
Stainless barrels get profiled on lathes every single day, and are just fine. Are they as durable as chromed CHF barrels? No. Are they safe? Absolutely.
>>
>>65045459
Yes, I'm aware. I used the term because it's one that I thought someone talking about "FWD driveshafts" outside of the context of engineering insanity like Dymaxion might be familiar with. And yes, I'm aware of the fact that halfshafts are typically solid (or with a very narrow bore if hollow), which is why I suggested it as a more likely candidate than a driveshaft for machining into a gun barrel.

>>65045264
The 20mm bolt was an example you absolute nigger.

You can run 9mm through a lot weaker stuff. And I mean a lot more.

FGC-9s can be mass produced in printer farms easily. You can run a shop in a small garage; 10 printers going at it with one guy supervising and also running 20 buckets with ECM going on. This will produce 20 guns a week.
