>>64750488They're going to call it something else right?
>>64750669Yes it’s a new model line. Also the 3” options.I bought a Terava Tiny Knife because I am retarded. Need to find a sheath option that isn’t 6 month waitlist from Germany.
>>64750488Haha, that's pretty nifty, actually.
>>64750488is this the 110 slim elite? I thought it was a limited run. A magnacut 110 might be something I need to buy.

>>64751182More than 40 years ago just fucking around with friends tossed a MK3 concussion grenade in a storm drain at 3am from a moving car. A car load of stereotypical doctors and engineers saw us go by and burned out in hot pursuit.Luck was with us and the fireball rolled out of the drain and in through one car window and out the other. Driver malfunctioned beautifully, jerked the wheel hit the median and turned it plumb upside down.
>>64751182you realize no one likes you, right fag? fuckin gay ass piece of shit.
Starting with this piece of shit. Any gun that gets a cracked frame within 20,000 rounds is an irredeemable hunk of absolute dogshit. That isn’t even a high round count for 9mm. Glock runs circles around beretta.
>>64749953Nothing overrated bout a Glawk. "Glock perfection" is a good meme but I think everyone knows there's nothing special to em. They're popular because they check all the boxes for blue-collar sensibilities - cheap, reliable, light, you can get one in any sane size & caliber combination you want, and it'll last long enough to pass on to your grandkids. That fits the bill for 90% of people.
This obnoxious piece of shit.

>>64750773>>64750212The main issue I have with Tasmanian Tiger is that their designs are straight up dogshit. Check out picrel. It's like every bad idea rolled up into one carrier. > Absolutely retarded "air mesh" that absorbs sweat, mud, and dirt, and makes the carrier only good for airsoft in mild climates? Check!> Dual bulky shoulder buckles? Check! I hope you don't like shouldering your weapon, lol! > Floppy, unreinforced, and weak-looking laser-cut MOLLE? Check! > Floppy elastic cummerbund? Check!> 2.2 pounds empty? Check!!> $500?! YEAH!And that's not even their worst carrier. Look up the "Anfibia". A $40 Amazon.com carrier puts it to absolute shame. In fact, I don't think that TT have any good designs. Everything is deeply flawed in some respect. Also, the quality is Airsoft-grade, and they've always been an Airsoft company. That's not even close to the biggest problem with them, though.
>>64751640You can immediately disqualify any company which uses ROC buckles. Literally no gear company is worth a cent of your money if they are too cheap to pay First Spear to use Tubes.
>>64750789Have fun sawing logs with that.
>>64751025Imagine the irony of fighting a pitched battle in a cemetery., where the dead literally determine the winner. Spoopy.
>>64751780Tubes are pretty shit to begin with. I don't understand why they still make them out of low-quality nylon that fractures if it's hit by a rock or a BB pellet. > B-but aluminum would be a secondary fragment hazard, so we have to make them from fragile and low-quality materials!!Still, ROC buckles are worse, and TT's designs are all absolutely terrible, designed by people who literally don't know anything about gear.
I can’t believe it took a 30 minute video to say what we already knew, which is that 10mm Auto is the superior automatic handgun cartridge, and that only after having to water it and then .40 S&W down for the women, manlets, and fags in the FBI did they just settle on 9mm because there was no difference at that point. Amazing.>But muh fire rate!Literally doesn’t matter in a combat scenario, doubly so if your shots don’t actually land. Paul Harrell already established this in his 1986 Miami Dade shootout analysis. Lift weights and carry 10mm, anons.https://youtu.be/ZybcWWu4ddk?si=KptwdszD7hCNFTQE

>and carry 10mmHere is the video that BTFOs OP :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SIB58HYc3F0
>>64743958>water 10mm, .40 and .45 down because you cant handle le recoil>load 9mm hot to the gills with heavy bullets to mimic what the watered down higher calibersExplain, surely the recoil difference is negligible between .40, .45 and 9mm +p/+p+. Then again i will shoot plain jane 9mm and .40 back to back and not notice much of a difference on identical platforms(i imagine properly sprung .40 makes a difference), and im a lanklet
why are 10mm advocates always so emotional
>the FBI didnt just switch to 9mm because its cheaper and let more people(women) qualify! The bullets are just better than .40 or .45!>sure we compared it to watered down .40 and .45 with bad bullet design that we used because it let women and manlets qualify...but but its better it is!Idk why the FBI is the basis for peoples choice in personal defensive weapons when their criteria is letting female detectives not limp wrist jam glawks in the incredibly rare shootouts they have, but be my guest i suppose
10 mili-does what 9 mili-can't
>>64748201But that's not what happened.Hollow point design was garbage, which essentially biased handgun effectiveness towards high mass bullets.When hollow point design improved, 9mm was the major beneficiary because designers could tailor bullets to have good weight retention, 12-16 inches of penetration in gel, barrier blind capabilities, etc. What did .40 and .45 get? Good weight retention, 12-16 inches of penetration in gel, barrier blind capabilities, etc. So larger calibers are designed to the same standard as 9mm, but the added inertia and muzzle energy allows the designers to enhance bullet expansion. Since they get no benefit in penetrating more, they trade it for final bullet frontal area.It's up to you if you want to get that added wound volume at the cost of higher recoil. It's just that statistically you'll shoot better with a 9mm and an instance of a gunshot's effect on target being decided by handgun caliber choice is almost null.And when we get to matters of budgeting 9mm is cheaper for agencies to purchase.>>64748598But they have the funding to do scientifically valid gel tests. It doesn't matter if a local PD gets more kills per year on average than the entire FBI, they have no control over variables.
>>64748203They do? The caveat is they have an approval process for personally owned weapons and some are not allowed. Nothing is stopping them from using .45 or 9mm.>>64749949>statistically you'll shoot better with a 9mm and an instance of a gunshot's effect on target being decided by handgun caliber choice is almost null.this is the real reason why 9mm is favored. In a high stress situation, most pistol rounds will do pistol round amounts of damage so it's better to hit more times due to more manageable recoil for accurate follow up shots and more rounds in the mag for more follow up shots.
>>64750397you don’t need follow-up shots with 10mm
>>64750397the first shot is the most important

>>64747059>Hell, just because Russia would need to get through the Baltic states or PolandSpoken like a non-european shitskin.If we, in western europe, let the poles assume our defense alone and just go full hedonist otherwise, we deserve to go exctinct.You are stronger when you have strong friends but you better be strong yourself so that you may be a better friend to begin with.
>>64747445>the current push for rearmament hinges entirely on RussiaNo it doesn't.It hinges on the fact we've been asleep while our little brother was at the wheel.It was fine back then because said brother might have been immature but he was increadibly skilled, wouldn't fall asleep and could stay focus on the road while having the collective prosperity of us both.Now, not so much.Maybe we'll stay friendly with the USA and next POTUS will be great for EU-USA relationship.But whose to say the americans won't elected another retard in the near future ?So lesson is learned : if we want to keep our agency when our interests are starting to become opposed to those of the USA, we better start working for it.

The dragon is the size of the ones in GOT, use GOT as the point of reference for most everything to be honest. If you want to be a furry abut this you can do a version where the dragon(s) are smart cookies that can talk and junk.
>>64751752there once was a great wizard named Jamsheed The Brown, the master of this spellalas, he has fallen into shadow
>>64733770I put in 1905 as a conservative date, because the existence of dragons date would probably have done much to speed up evolution of any and all technologies related to air war>If dragons could be mass produced and specialized relatively cheaplyI assumed that would have already happenedPercheron dragons as heavy bombers and troop transports, Arabian dragons for aerial combat, tiny Mongol dragons who eat little and fly far for daring SF raids way behind enemy lines
>>64744703a dragon may have, oh, say about a centimeter of alternating nanoscale (natch) layers of chitin and nacre with a very hard tooth enamel like outer layer and that would allow it to laugh at muskets from 100 paces alreadyin such a circumstance development of long rod penetrators would happen much sooner than it has irl
>>64727411depending on how intelligent the dragon we might be living in a world of rival dragon kingdoms, probably way less advanced technologically and certainly no airplanes because that would directly oppose their power and its hard to oppose a government that has 500 years of experience clinging to that power, maybe forces of competition between rival kingdoms still allow for innovation but it would probably stifle it overall.
>>64751725The same thing horses do maybe? Police work, beasts of burden and status animals. It would not be unreasonable to assume that dragons would just like the horse or dog seen 1000's of years of domestication and would come in different size and shapes for different purpose. One particular job dragons could be exceptionally good would be quick search and rescue operations>It could take hours for even the best dog or horse team to reach a mountain top and help some injured person>Instead just send a rider on a dragon and they would be on the scene in minutes and then just fly back with the injured to a local hospital instantly.>If dragons also have a very good sense of smell they would be very quick to find people that are lost in the woods.Militaries and royal familes would keep dragons just for the status and history of it since they probably would have had a very close history with dragons since after all, no military can ignore the power of dragon cavalry and no royal family could claim divine right to rule if they cannot tame and use dragons in the name of god. Navies would also have proto-aircraft carriers in their wooden ship fleets since having a dragon in a sea battle would be decisive.On a side note. Instead of just modern women obsessed with horses, you would also have women obsessed with dragons.>Sometimes you would just "know" what happen behind the scenes....
Over the past century, technological changes have come about which would actually make the Ratte a viable platform.>miniaturization of nuclear reactors>miniaturization of nuclear warheads>lasers for defense against drones and missiles>improvements to computers for fire controlThere is no better time than now to build the Ratte.

>>64748081Realistically speaking so long as you have nuclear weapons or even something more devastating, the eternal argument ends with sword>shield. Consequentially being a fuckoff huge target would simply end poorly for you as missiles, typical artillery, or even nuclear landmines would mean more agile and attritable, not to mention pre-existant forces would remove you from the equation. Unless you address many or all of these factors its not really feasible enough people give the OK to dedicate the necessary engineering expertise to design this and then filter resources away from the front to arm and protect this thing.
I don't understand why Hitler, Dr. Porsche, and others continued to downplay the importance of the ability to recover, repair, and re-equip stranded AFVs. The only trailers I know of in Germany capable of carrying heavy tanks were a few examples used at test sites.
>>64739562Ah shit one of the seven people who played Haze escaped the museum again
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1b52tVlHc84Is that a fucking pistol real sight in the red dot cut out? Is PSA inventing a shotgun that can't be used as a shotgun because it has pistol sights for some reason? the receiver is objectively the worst place to mount a red dot on a shotgun. the best option would be if you could get it low profile on the barrel or as a qd on a side rail like an AK, though the barrel, especially if you can get the bottom of the red dot below the receiver would be great because then you could have a red dot mounted for HD or turkey or if you're in one of the like 3 states that still require slug guns for durr and then you can take off the barrel, the red dot remains zeroed and you can put on a different barrel for birds or clays I really don't understand this psa 570 thing. it looks like they just designed a gun to compete with turkshit and the mav 88 to be a ghetto blaster for blowing up trash on blm land
>>64751174you know remingshit went under right? it's just mossberg or turk/chinese shit or the used market at that price point I don't even think it's actually mossberg at that price point, it's maverick. the cheapest made in America mossbergs on PSA's store are $415 slug guns. the cheapest nonmav, 12 gauge non shockwave smooth bore mossberg on psa's website is $488. Granted I'd probably trust a mav 88 over turkshit
>>64751207I guess I don't see the point of buying this when you can buy the Mav 88 that comes with two different length barrels for $299https://www.sportsmans.com/shooting-gear-gun-supplies/shotguns/mossberg-maverick-88-field-security-combo-12-gauge-3in-blued-pump-shotgun-185in28in/p/1506620
>>64751394yeah I agree. the only advantage is I think the PSA is made in the US whereas the mav is made in mexico. but if you care about it being made in the USA you can just buy a regular mossberg. Mavs are probably fine anyway. most of the budget shit on a mav88 is budget shit mossberg was doing on the 500 until they bought maverick arms, at which point they slightly upgraded the 500
>>64751402didn't know any of that thanks
>>64751394They already said the PSA will be convertible between pump and semi auto. That alone gives it a purpose to exist. And if the semi auto version is less than fucking 1100 dollars, it'll be a pretty good deal.
