Truthpill me on 5.7. Is it good? Is it bad? What's the use case? Are the guns good? Is the ammo good? Is it really more lethal than 9mm? I don't care about the price.
>>64755562everyone shot in the chest once was immediately taken out of the fight.way better than .22 lr
Its fun
>>64755177It was a rental gun a place I worked at. No real issues from what I remember
>>64755034>I don't care about the priceToo bad, with ammo coming down and PS90 FRTs coming up, the 50rnd mag cap is a natural for range toy. For me, the ergos are fine, the factory sight sucks.
>>64755034as an expert, having never owned or fired it, my belief is that it isn't bad but is mostly pointless for civilians due to rof and projectile limitations, and that in 2026 it is viable in the same way that .30 super carry is viable
Why aren't ballistic submarines the backbone of world navies? Why haven't surface ships been relegated to carrier protection and amphibious operations? Why not make SLBMs out of RIM-66s and Standard missiles and Tomahawks and ASROCs? If you want force projection why wouldn't the ambiguity of the presence of submarines be enough to scare your enemies?
>>64756527>Nobody wants to work on themWell, not nobody but it does take a special kind of sailor to be locked in an airtight, sunless, crowded bottle for months at a time.
I assume we're going to see a lot more surface ships with fewer than 150 men in board in the future and perhaps more emphasis on subs and light carriers. This is the age of quantity, big things are rarely worth the price.

>>64757657Noted. Thanks for the advice man. I’m learning a lot and trying to do my research and from what I’ve gathered Airborne and Light Infantry are better than mech, I’ll keep that in mind.
okay guys so im at DLI. i realized you can just plug the lesson text into chatgpt and make super passages that you can listen to and read for guaranteed high scores. it works. not just on me.the problem is... ive told so many people about it. in casual conversation. im going to shut up about it.whats the worst that can happen from this? i know that it's allowed. the problem is:and yes, though its a bad thing to say. im worried it'll detract from my high scores. ive seen people eavesdropping, whom i know were stressed from the course, light up like they discovered fire when i started talking about this method. obviously im not smart because of this, i didnt develop anything, i didnt make chatgpt, i just stumbled upon a way to use it to learn so much better. but i am afraid people will start getting higher scores and it'll detract from me. whats the worst that could happen? even if scoring changes, i'd be long gone by then. a lot of my class knows. shit. i will shut up about it though.anyway long wall of text, whats the worst that could happen? i do know that its allowed
>>64757877dishonorable discharge and 20 years in the leavenworth cum pits
>>64757895should i just claim credit now and make an announcement? teaching people how to do this method. its so crazy effective and eliminates any need for effort. but i dont know. im thinking if its just in the rumor mill, it'll die eventually. plus i've realized a lot of us are anti AI, especially women at DLI? for some reason, they usually have dogma against AI. im thinking it has to do with art and it taking over artistic pursuits. anyway not the point.i dont want it spreading to detract from myself. if its just in the rumor mill, its not a big deal. but if its spreading i might as well go full blast and receive credit by announcing it. i dont know. im willing to take any advice.
>>64757909my advice is shut the fuck up and go to class
Talk about the gen 6 glock.
>gen 6>6>six>VI>still got a dogshit triggerPerfection.
>>64757045We'd quit if they didn't keep making them uglier
Riced out Glocks are now just baseline Glocks.
>>64756988The biggest significant change is the extractor redesign. It's probably fine, but if there is going to be a fiasco with Gen 6 it will almost certainly involve the new extractor. Everything else is a straight step-up from Gen 5. You don't need to replace what you have right now, but when in the market for a new Glock there's no reason to seek anything else out imo. That is unless we start seeing guys with 10,000 rounds on theirs throwing extractor bits everywhere.
>>64756988At first I thought it looked good but then I realized it looks bad**The look of glocks was never the point to me but I guess I kind of liked the utilitarian and brutalist vibes. Now it looks like a derya or any of the hundred other over-milled, over-stippled strikersloppas. Like an imitation of itself

Neat guide
Had Shoigu and Gerasimov been captured as it seems the goal and then Wagner had actually went all the way to Moscow, could they have succeeded in overthrowing Putin? Or was it a lost cause from the beginning?
>>64757927Yeah and his son was sort of postured as his successor very briefly before Wagner was fully dissolved and his family has smartly went silent as far as I know. Probably threatened.
>>64757618>Basically nil chance of that. Putin wasnt going to be waiting around for them, and the Wagner convoy had too few numbers to realistically seize the capital.What if the forces there just sided with them when they showed up? Everywhere else they went, there was no resistance and locals cheered them. They show up in Moscow, everyone breathes a sigh of relief and thinks "thank God we have a way out", Prigozhin declares control over Russia, armed forces recognize him, he immediately declares that Putin was a traitor and a pest and Russia had no desire for Ukraine anyways and immediately signs a peace treaty with Ukraine setting things back to 2014.
>>64757941Their entire political mindset is that the Czar/Stalin/Putin is perfect and hypercompetent but misinformed and lied to, and the Boyars/Generals are evil and corrupt and incompetent. If only the czar knew...
>>64757927AFAIK they don't usually go for the children, e.g. they didn't kill the daughter of Sobchak or daughter of Nemtsov. But they did threaten to kill his kids, which was like the main reason Pringles man cucked out.
Ctrl f and not one mention of surovikin. Come on /k/.>>64757957That was the plan but the security forces got to Surovikin, and no other generals answered the call. Prigo understood he lacked the backing to take Moscow with just his convoy.

>>64757822Not flinching, jerking the trigger. I.E. my trigger pull moves the whole gun around and ruins my aim.

>>64757704>Apparently there is going to be a holosun with a front facing sensor announced at shot show this year.Baste. RMR HDs are the best simply because the auto adjustment actually works, other than that feature, I like Holosuns better.>>64757757>Kydex trigger shieldWhere are good places to get these?
>>64757940Try positioning the pad of your finger further in or out of the trigger guard. With Glocks for example I pull left using my normal finger placement, I have to use the tip to avoid it but only on Glocks
Went to the gunstore to get a Bodyguard 2.0 and almost bought a Ruger RXM instead.I'll be more likely to carry the bodyguard so I bought it still but now I really want an RXM

You're tasked with building a kit to help Iranian resistance against the Ayatollah regime, the kits you build will be airdropped into Iranian territory in large dufflebags and then picked up by chosen operatives. You have $3k per kit to try to arm an light resistance guerrilla fighter, you can only source items from the US civilian market. At minimum you should provide a rifle, a pistol, body armor, essential accessories and ammunition for both, as well as any survival or tactical implement you see necessary.What kind of stuff do you pick?
I don’t airdrop anyone anything. I extract busty Iranian women from Tehran then leave
>>64757950Mossad jeet infiltration operation is not going well I see
>>64757950just drop guns and ammo fuck your kits. drop 5,000 rifles and 100 rounds for each rifle

what's the point in hiring mercs who aren't at all familiar with your language, culture, or geography/climate?

The problem we're learning the hard way in America is even if theyre morally trustworthy and righteous, you can't trust them because they are low IQ...They will fuck up its only a matter of time
>>64757323>behind the triggerYou need your eyes checked and also need to look up the schematics. There is at least a 3rd of the trigger covered behind the sheet metal as well.Not a bullpup but you continue to prove yourself retarded.
>>64757362nope doesnt matter if its 1/3 behind the trigger or 2.9999999/3 behind the trigger. behind the trigger is behind the trigger
>>64757453Good thing then that the bolt is ahead of the trigger when closed making it not a bullpup. Good bye.
>>64757968because you moved the goalposts i win automatically
>>64757974I moved nothing. Your dumbass thinks semiautomatic handguns are bullpups because the magazine is behind the trigger. What a retard lol.
>see grown masc man with one of those not-a-purse things>immediately assume that that is where his piece isIs this a common thought process or am I being paranoid? Is this a valid form for CC?
>>64749540Rookie mistake. He should've had a knife so he could cut the strap and take off. If the mark is strapped ir otherwise resist, the knife will give them something to think twice about.

Writefag here, I’m looking for real “out there” firearms that are advanced looking but not too impractical for my sci-fi setting.

>>64756879>recoil of a .308that's a feature(tm), the burst is so fast that you only feel it after you shot allowing you to have a very precise burst thus you feel all those bullets at once
>>64757459>that's a feature(tm), the burst is so fast that you only feel it after you shot allowing you to have a very precise burst thus you feel all those bullets at onceYou are misrepresenting what I said. I wasn't talking about the 3-round burst that shot at 2,100 fps at all. When the gun fired in semi-auto (ergo, 1 bullet per trigger pull), the gun's recoil pattern was awful. Regardless of the impressive 3-round burst feature they were experimenting with.
>>64757134>fantasy Nigga sci fi westerns (nta btw) are as old as the fucking genre, dating all the way back to the 1860's, and science fantasy uses "supernatural" elements such as "magic", mythology, (particularly gods) and fantastical technology. The term you are looking for is SPACE Western.
