What could have been done better for these homeowners to defend themselves? Is the fake UPS delivery the go to home invasion method? It seems a bit sketch considering I know the UPS guys that run the route in my area, but I understand that's just anecdotal stuff.>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtHxgxpDqhU
>>64693622>the rat poison shit againNearly any commercially available rat poison takes a long time to kick in in order for the rats not to realize what's killing them and a dog would need to eat a good amount compared to a rat. It's not just 'fido ate a blue cracker and now he's dead'.

First footage of the Sino Q-ship/arsenal ship leaving port for sea trials. Are they really serious with this?
>>64690985is this actual military hardware or just props for one of those chink marijuana infused movies?
>>64693204Come on, these are clearly marked as carrying weapons.
>>64692923Your average American doesn't really give a shit, and certainly doesn't feel personally wounded when the Chinese do anything, because he knows that the chinks cant scratch him militarily no matter what they do. I dont know what the fuck is going on with the mindbroken freaks on this board, its like kabul and covid put them in a permanent fight or flight and so every harmless piece of chink propaganda makes them shit their pants. seriously tedious faggots.
>>64693261>>64693204>trying to revive fucking Q-ships by intentionally trying to hide combatants as cargo ships in 2026Since when is intalling a bunch of radar domes and an obvious CIWS gun "hiding"? It's obviously not some retarded sneak attack ship, but a system to convert container ships into missile pickets. This would be the exact same thing as the US Navy strapping a containerized Aegis and Mk70 PDS onto their unmanned logistic ships. You know, the exact thing they have talked about doing and are actively working on?Anyways, the program is obviously about making use of some of the 240,000 tons of civilian shipping that China has. Those container ships would have no purpose during a shooting war with the US since the war would slam the door on trade. Might as well hang a PLAN flag off of it and use it to disperse VLS cells across more platforms.>inb4 more histrionic moaning about how this is totally different and obviously a warcrime deserving condemnation and punishment against China trying to stop the peaceful re-rise of the American nation.There's always an element of hypocrisy in any international relationship, but the absolute brittleness you lot have about yourselves is just annoying.
>>64693679>he knows that the chinks cant scratch him militarilyWhy would China want to? They don't have to sink the USN. The PLAN just has to be enough of a discouragement to whatever 7th Fleet has long enough to form a ground situation that is too expensive for Washington to change.
Pistol related but last question thread died a while ago. Are all 1911 .45 barrels interchangeable with all other 1911 models? I've got a Kimber and want a threaded barrel for it and I'm wondering if I should just get a Kimber barrel for it.
>>64689146NTA but holy shit that's just about the same thing I wanted to make for my Weaver Qwik-Point lol. Fiber optic only, no tritium or LEDs in it.
>>64691101>actually productive for like 3 days>check board once a day or so>miss anon making a monstrosity out of two 870sWhat the fuck
>>64691649I have the 10/22 one, same buttstock hardware. I think you'd have to knock out the pin holding the hinge and butt on to the tube, pull that, cut the tube, re-attach, drill new pin hole, put pin in, and then move the stud the folding butt clips on thats on the wood part of the stock. That may be a bitch as it's set up like a reinforcing lug like the SKS has where it goes clean through the stock with another screw on the left as well. In fact, push that stud back any further and it's going to intersect with the magwell. Ain't gonna happen. Also the thing has a fucking 12.75" LOP why do you want it shorter? A 10/22 carbine has a 13.5" LOP! Just keep it half folded (stock folded, butt deployed) and keep a hand on the butt while walking if tight spaces is the issue.
Whatever happened to the buy/sell/trade threads? Haven't been around for a bit but I could've sworn they were always here.
>>64692069>>64692050>can be done with 500sI'm half-way there with one 500. But the more I look at the process, the more a DP12 looks cost-effective.>::groan.mp3::Might as well save for DP12 ...
i see no point in bullpup rifles, i mean they go trough all that work, only to provide miniscule results, all because they keep recirculating AR derived slop design. the only guns i have seen as a viable solution is either KRASA or the "grip repeating rifle", and not for its name sake.. only the bolt design. anyhow, this is my take on what a bullpup should be.. it feeds from behind magazine, so you obtain 3 more inches of barrel, mix this with the bullpup setup and suddenly what should be a 10" barrel gun, can become a 20"..
>>64693380cross krasa with desert tech's MDR and bobs ur uncle, everything BUT the feeding mechanism is perfect on that gun, and its only imperfect because of what it's trying to do.
>not putting the silencer before the barrel.crap. you're crap at designing. Read a book, and try harder.
>>64693404can't insult the actual content, gets offended, acts like a woman on her period- >throws personal insults hoping it will stick XDman, i only made the shitty picture as a scribble to go with the notes.. autists take everything to literally, fuck.
>>64693349Forget the krasa, use the mechanism found in the Madsen

Today the Somaliland coast guard showed off its entire coast guard to celebrate Israeli Recognition I'm sharing every boat showed off. Seems to be 1 warship, a few patrol boats and 2 other boats
>>64690283Man it’s going to be retarded once the second Ethiopian-Eritrean war finally pops off
>>64690283Their "problems" were them trying to get a port (which honestly I don't think anyone can really blame them for wanting), and Somalialand was supposed to be that ticket. And its not like Somalia is an actual threat to Ethiopia if they can't even deal with Puntland or Somaliland. The great threat to them from that direction is undoubtedly Al-Shabaab. Anyways, it seems like Somaliland got cold feet on the port deal once they got international pushback after it was announced and I was just wondering if he had any inside info to share on it.>>64692640That's one word for it. Whatever happens, someone really ought to do something about Eritera, as the more I look into it the more I realize how truly fucked it is and no one ever talks about it.
>>64690732Not really, they are the main reason the middle East is so unstable.

>>64693706>Hubbard and crew spent the next 68 hours engaged in combat
>1990s>all sorts of different assault rifles, battle rifles, SMGs, PDWs>2020s>everything is an AR or an AKwhat happened?
>>64686615What happened is that military/police contracts and limited budgets drive the firearms industry. Companies tried to innovate new ideas and came up with great guns, but the potential improvements over the existing designs weren't enough to justify the costs of buying all new equipment and more importantly, training everyone to use it. A great example is the paddle magazine release on handguns. It is objectively superior for everything outside of competitions and there are numerous cases of mags being accidentally dropped during a fight due to a button release. But no cops have actually died from it, so rather than waste millions of dollars on pistols and man hours spent retraining thousands of people to use a paddle, the button persists and the paddle dies.
>>64686615>what happened?9/11 and the GWOT happened. Everybody was trying to cash in on that .gov/.mil gravy train and some actual improvements were made along the way.
>>64686631The AR is my favorite non-american rifle.
>>64686615>what happened?Rhodes Scholar pinkos beat Langley George and facilitated infinity trash imports of Combloc bullshit, just to hurt domestic arms companies/2A ... but really it's the NFA precluding the emergence of John Brownings reincarnating and developing naturally as God and Founders intended.
>>64693793based. We must abolish the NFA so JMB can return and save us all.

Ohioanon, the patches just made their way to Kolorado. Huge thanks man, the White Death Gondola will be going on my range bag.

>>64693494Yes. Quaritch gets briefly captured by sexy fire shaman lady (Varang). She is amazed by guns which she thinks are magic. He teaches her to shoot and she's impressed by him. He escapes. But later when he needs help tracking Jake, he goes to her village to meet her and he offers to give her tribe guns in exchange for her help. She agrees and loves the guns so much she drags him to her tent to fuck and becomes his gf. It's the best sequence of the entire movie.

Speech: http://kcna.kp/en/article/q/5ceed4f1eb2058145a9bbbc60fcf07dd.kcmsftl;rd: Basically they want a nuclear sub fleet and are building a Blue Water navy, new surface ships explicitly referred to as 'Attack Destroyers'1/4: It is large.
>>64692981Imagine throwing a big dunk "You don't know about this topic" onto someone who leads with "I don't know about this topic". Obviously big ships have better seakeeping and so go faster in bad weather, but the efficiency of faster travel in water is way worse no matter how big you are. Cargo ships go slow enough that a USV with frogmen could get next to them - the same is not true of a warship making 35kt.
>>64676421Why would choose Connecticut for this comparison when Groton is one of the main locations where US subs get built.
>>64693398Good point, the DPRK's shipyard capacity is probably a order of magnitude greater than Groton's.
With that size they should go for building a submarine aircraft carrier.
>>64690812>The cause of the Ursa Major's sinking appears to be kinetic. The shipowner told media that there were three explosions and a 20-inch hole in the shell plating, and the captain confirmed that the hole's ragged edges were bent inwards. This is consistent with an explosion on the outside of the hull.Note to self, never invade Ukraine for I will suffer righteous indignity in doing so
I'll start; Mossberg Patriot Everyone shit talked this rifle even though it's perfectly functional, accurate and one of the better looking budget guns
>>64693057You're exaggerating. I never said it isn't viable for carry but it is sub optimal with many better options available. A more modern 9mm is cheaper to shoot, easier to shoot and has better performing ammunition available. If you want to carry a 380, it makes sense to carry something significantly smaller than a Bersa.The Bersa is just a dated design in the same sense that a PPK is. If you like it anyway that's fine, but it isn't a gun I'd recommend to others unless that's what they want.>>64693076>Just get a 1911Suppose I want something like it but more like a Beretta.>Hi-Power Suppose I don't like it.>Decocker negates the function.It's a manual safety that you can sweep down to decock if you want to. Doesn't negate anything, just gives you more options. Older models require you to thumb the hammer down to decock if you want to carry it DA, which is not ideal.>Steel frame.PT92s still have alloy frames, the slides are steel which is good because aluminum alloy Beretta slides like to crack around the slots for the locking lugs.
>>64692814>took my rifle out and shot 10, three shot groups>one of them was below 1 moaSounds like the harmonic stars aligned in the node an you did ur part
>>64693251>because aluminum alloy Beretta slides like to crack around the slots for the locking lugsWtf are you talking about, every pistol in the Beretta 92 family have steel slides or stainless steel for the Inox. The frames are 7075-T6 Aluminum but the slides are all steel or stainless steel.
>>64691490>mossberg patriotShit. Cheap shit. Ruger or savage makes way better bolt guns. I’ve personally seen a mossberg patriot fire upon bolt closure, nobody touching the trigger. You fucked up by not buying the savage or Ruger. Love mossie pump shotguns though.
