Russia is 100yrs ahead of USA in HMG design, and tactics.USA lost in Afghan War due to use of vintage Soviet HMG for sniper and long range harassing fire that ended any "hearts and minds" and Civil Affairs, as well as FUD and PTSD in NATO troops.

>>64748796Yes.
>>64747934Is a megawatt weapon going to be able to stop multiple hypersonic maneuvering reentry vehicles, of which half are just decoys?
>>64752618Probably. Hypersonics are under a lot of aerodynamic stress so just a little heat imbalance can throw the entire thing into a tumble.

What backpacks are you guys using?
>>64754522The only part of it I disagree with nowadays (speaking specifically as a milfag to milfags) is the part about your 1st Line being strictly what's on your belt. Nobody strolls around with nothing but a micro belt load on except cops. What we will walk around in casually in a """"tactical environment"""" is just our armor sans any of our fighting gear. I can't even take a shit without my armor on. They'd make me sleep in it if they could. I'd amend it to be a less specific on what kind of gear it is. 1st Line: The shit you EDC whether you're in a TOC or in a trenchline. What's in your pockets and on your mostly-slick armor vest. 2nd Line: The shit that comes on when boss man says it's time for a raid and to leave everything behind but water and ammo. Your actual combat load to include team and mission gear. Belts (big or small), placards, assault packs, etc. 3rd Line: The shit that lives in the glorified duffel bag you call a rucksack because all it's for is sleep gear and extra clothes. Or an actual duffel bag because let's be real: nobody walks more than a few miles anywhere anymore. Even the 82nd gets handed vehicles the second they show up in a real warzone.
>>64754640A TNF 27l bag. I’ve found 30l is the sweet spot for about 75% of everything. If you need more, scale up accordingly. Finding a proper 30l with a good hipbelt is something though.

What tools for self defense would you recommend for someone in Europe to have when shit goes down. There are black powder revolvers shotguns and rifles, but you can't buy them everywhere in Europe. There are crossbows and bows but what is really their capacity to defend, and of course air rifles, in some countries they are unrestricted in some countries they are cucked and they are a hassle to have around in the case of an emergency. Better yet what should everybody own, not just weapons, in case they want to survive more than 72 hours.

>>64746392start engineering your own weapons
>>64746392Fucking get an actual gun with a license. You're not some kind of lowlife whose preconvictions stop him from that, are you? Make friends with people who have guns too.>>64746405>>64746414Get a sword and maybe a spear. Real, historically accurate replicas, not mallninja bullshit. There are plenty of options for a few hundred eurobucks, and they blow repurposed tools or homemad shit out of the water. Get a shield too, and pepper spray on top. Mind you, the most likely use for this is giving it to a friend who has no gun. While you carry a gun.
>>64754215Buy a lathe, a drill press, and a bunch of quality tooling. If anyone asks sperg out about d.i.y. miniature steam engines. They will never mention it again.
Realistically, what firearm would you need to take down a rampaging Na'vi from the Avatar films? Nine feet of solid muscle and bone (reinforced with natural carbon fibre), extremely fast-moving and agile, fighting on their own turf with very short engagement distances? There's no way 5.56 mm would cut it, would 7.62mm be enough?
>>64754822I think Varang grabbing him is most likely. Na’vi women seem to be super loyal to their husbands.
>>64754667Does that mean if one sits on my face I won't die?
Oh boy another thread of people taling braindead masses slop seriously.It's a movie with a sole purpose of telling a story. Nothing you see, are told, or that happens has any purpose or reality to it.Go watch Das Boot for the 40th time instead of wasting a portion of your life with this pocahontas bullshit.
>>64753352I remember reading reports from Mogadishu of Rangers mag-dumping into a skinny and they were still running around and firing back for a while. Try doing that to a 9ft 600lb Na'vi.
>>64753610Plus the muscles would be very dense like those of a chimpanzee.

Each had at least 100+ killshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_World_War_II_flying_aces#Table
>>64754604
>>64754608
>>64754608>>64754611Even though soviet pilots were shit but that doesn't mean that they didn't have guns firing at something. 300? Even third world cops torturing unarmed people in custody don't have that number
>>64754533They weren't. Germany's pilots weren't better, but when you're outnumbered in the sky there's more opportunities for aces since it's hard to get 5 kills when there's barely any Luftwafffe in the sky to shoot down.
you cant beat the aryan superhuman.

>>64753541The concept is surprisingly old, you have the ITL Mars and the EOLAD too in this category of red dots with lasers built in. Personally I don't see an issue with the concept, no need to zero twice and only one battery to look after sounds lovely. Pair it with a vampire and boom you have a workable NV setup
>>64753541>I'm sure alot of poorfags trying to get into night visionNV is unironically dead.A bunch or redditors losing tens of thousands of dollars larping with second hand/last gen NV only to be immediately nullified by thermal will never not be funny.

I am about to import 80,500 of these indian hesbee 22 short single shot handguns. They are currently in transit being shipped from India.They have sat in storage as they were built in 1959 as gunlaws became more restricted in India. If you were in my shoes, how do I make this business venture successful. I purchased each pistol at 2160 rupees (around 24$) and they cost me ($1500 for import and $5000 in shipping) so i am in for abit under $2mil. Do you think people will actually buy these or should I put my house for sale ASAP?
where would you even store 80,000 guns. in your house?
>>64754718Considering it was only $5000 to ship all 80,000 they can't take up that much space. They're tiny pocket pistols. You could probably fit them all in a storage locker.
>>64754718>>64754771Assuming each box is about 8 cubic inches (.75" by 4" by 3") it's a shade under 4500 cubic feet. A standard ISO container is a bit over 1300 cubic feet. With room for error and pallets, it's around four shipping containers' worth. So not completely unmanageable. Shaving an inch off the box in either dimension, or just packing them into crates, could well cut that down to something like two shipping containers. It's still madness but if you've got property or a large shop then it's not gonna break his back.
>>64743611KEKED AND SAVED
>>64754820>>64754771okay, i guess but its still fucking absurd lmao. theres literally no way this will be profitable unless he figures out how to sell it in massive bulk as is. if you spend 1 minute per gun, thats 55 solid days of work, nonstop to do anything. youd have to sell these in batches of 1000 to make it even worth the time, and even THEN, thats 80 different gun stores that hes going to have to find, convince to buy a 1000 fucking single shot .22 short relics. this will be his problem for literally years, if not the next decade lmao
How would you defeat this?
>>64753427so it overpenetrates a tiny part of an alien ship and the rest of the ship just goes on its merry human-exterminating way?
>endless bitchery about lousy endingokay, so how would YOU have ended it, /k/?
>>64754817At such speeds, matter just violently fucking explodes instead of piercing. So the alien ship will find a huge portion of it vaporizes into gas due to the impact and temperatures involved.

Target shooting generalA thread that dies because anon in it actually shoot.I'm wanting a target rifle for 20 and 50 metre smallbore. I'm thinking that I'll just get a BSA International but what other rifles are an option for around 1k in Australia?
>>64749995>BestFeinwerkbau or Anschutz
For all the "y-you don't even own gunz" posts seen on /k/ this 5-reply topic is an accurate reflection of those big-talking board users making those posts
>>64753235I bought a sportsmans, it's no target rifle, took it to the range to double check that it shoots where you point it.
>>64753235I mean, yeah, though in fairness it might get more traction if it lasts until the weekend, and in summer. At least where I am it gets dark by 5pm and I'm not setup for night precision target shooting right now though that'd be fun. I can't usually get to a range in the middle of the work week.
Shot at my 38mm steel targets, couldn't tell if I hit it except for hitting the holding bar twice out of 25 rounds from about 25 metres.
Imagine the POTUS sent Delta Forces after you.Do you think you would do better than Maduro?
>>64752649International law is worthless if all it does is hamstring the good guys and let illegitimate dictators, revanchist orcs, and stateless ragheads do whatever the fuck they want. Clinton was based for skipping the UN and intervening in Kosovo outright, Dubya was based for playing games with international law the same way al-Qaeda and the Taliban were, Obongo was based for ignoring international law completely to cap bin Laden and plaster with a Hellfire anyone who looked at a drone camera funny, and Trump is based for snatching Maduro in the dead of night.
