What is /k/ favorite type of glock?
>>64695447Stagger stack subcompacts are massively overrated. They don't actually conceal better because thickness isn't the limiting factor to that, grip height is. They are more comfortable to carry though. They're also significantly worse to shoot than similar height double stack guns particularly for those with larger hands. I honestly think they're a mistake, I've gone back to double stack for all of my belt gun needs, if I'm going to bother with more than a pocket gun then I want it to shoot well.
>>64696936This is pretty much my thinking these days. If I can't lug around at least a G19 I'm just going straight for the P32.
>>64696961At least you admit their is no point to the G26
>>64697021There might be a point if I carried appendix or ankle. The G19 in question is grip chopped.

Saudi Arabia released footage captured using Chinese CH-5 drones of UAE loading MRAPs and other tactical vehicles onto ferry ships destined for Yemen:https://x.com/i/status/2005824068096786491
I know Saudis have quite a lot of toys relatively speaking in terms of their regional power - what does UAE have rockin? Need a QRD stat
all that energy could have been used for TKD
can arabs not undermine each other when their interests overlap for five minutes?
>>64696622You see it’s entirely because of the admittedly arbitrary borders set up by white people. If it wasn’t for those damned straight lines there would be palm trees and belly dancers everywhere and they would all coexist in harmony.

>>64696648This one could realistically stop some fragmentation, especially if it was repeated on the inside like a spall liner.

>>64696640Don’t k1 bricks specifically need to be mounted on a surface strong enough to take the blast? As opposed to the later variants which have a blast plate included with the mounting

The MOD of Taiwan released a chart detailing each threat from PLA's long range strikes and how to deal with them. How accurate and effective is this chart? Could Ukraine take one notes that could help them against Russian Strikes?

>>64694660Why didn’t they buy M-346? What about the med alliance?
>>64696043>A Simple CalculationROI
>>64696043>M-346Probably because it's the main NATO advanced trainer in service and the wait time to receive the first jet is too long.
>>64696043Sweetener for Turkey buying EurofightersHurrjet is also on the cards for Britain's Hawk replacement because of the Eurofighter deal. But M346 would allow a common airframe with other GCAP nations Italy and Japan

Are niggas still posting in the thread about this Kremlin-tier vaporware?
>>64697039>We can't build anything bigger than a patrol boat anymoreThat's a great way to never end up with anything bigger than a patrol boat.
>>64696826>By putting the VLS on the edge of the ship and armoring the shipboard and cell-adjacent sides, You basically treat them as blow-out panels.Why isn't this considered superfluous in the face of ship leveling AShM? >Also saves a ton of prime real estate for machinery and computers.Surely there's some kind of drawback of other factor which makes this not such a straight forward improvement in warship design.>The US military has also put a ton of work into insensitive explosives and made a lot of significant progress on fielding them.If you don't have to worry about catastrophic munitions' detonations or fires than is it really necessary to place the VLS external to any armor? Because that just makes the cells more vulnerable to damage from even anti-tank scale warheads, Not that it would sink the ship but very cost-effectively defang it.
>>64697089Stop the cap. Even if a finished design for this monstrosity exists, there's no way anyone's bumping a Ford or America hull for a super-Zumwalt. If the plan is to upgrade naval yards it would be better spent increasing the number of destroyers or subs we produce.

>>64694033What vest is that?
>>64693544You tuck the main flap behind the mags, and still have the thin strap for retention. Ive only ever seen it on Bulle pouches, and Im doubtful that a current year ranger would be using a bong airsoft brand that hasn't existed in over a decade, so presumably somebody domestic makes a version.
>>64696701a2 makes many bad choices. his taste in plates is assballs.

>>64693517does the LSAPI even exist yet? the basic VTP plates are still only half issued, and grey market sales are not too common. I would also contest 28595s being "midrange">>64694698thought the 275's were just the LEO rebrand for the gen 3 spear plate?

>>64696913Do you need a 1000D Cordura bag that weighs 10lbs empty or is what you have good enough?Their quality is great. Just a matter of whether the features are optimal for you.

Varusteleka has gone in such a shit direction over the past few years. When's the last time they even had a fresh surplus haul?

Schützenpanzer HS.30. It's actually crap but I love how compact it is.
Also anything with a recoilless rifle attached gets a few added cool-points.

>>64696796no shit? Did you post this in a previous thread or something?
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.
Anyone have decent recommendations for good, bulk, range .308 ammo? Using AmmoSeek of course but trying to gauge how bad the cheapest options really are on there.Fiocchi seems like the best of the worst, but curious to get hands-on opinions of it
Why can I get uppers shipped directly to my door but I have to get lowers through an FFL?
>>64696238Lowers are the part that is legally categorized as the "gun"
>>64696247The fun part is that legally neither the upper, nor the lower is a firearm. There was a case about this some time back that the atf dropped because they didn't want to risk a bad decision.

>>64697063It's been done a million times. Really makes sense that Cameron has been cooking this turd since the late 60s, what doesn't make sense is why people don't immediately recognise it for what it is. I can only assume people are getting nostalgic for the old hamfisted incitements to self-destruction.

Yes yes the Cold War ended and we are shelving the entire SOSUS system and idk we’ll let universities rent it out to study whales or something. We CERTAINLY haven’t moved on to some other subsurface global monitoring tech!>what do we think the USN has in place these days to vector attack subs in for some easy kills?
>>64696597Probably one of those satellite systems that are able to track submarine wakes using radar.
>>64696597your assumption is krillect, there is literally no use for old SOSUS technology anymore, there's no use case except to shrimply shut it all off.
>>64696836The WHAT
>>64696922Lidar and radar are now sensitive enough to detect the wake from whales and submarines.We also have enough computing power to link the various neutrino detectors and spot live reactors.
