According to the New York Times, the use of P-8 Poseidons with internally carried weapons against Venezuelan fishermen/drug smugglers .... constitutes perfidy.This would create a legal problem in the South China Sea, should the USN, RAAF and other P-8 users attack Chinese container ships with legitimately concealed anti-ship missiles, it would be an illegal act

We have just seen the US carry out Operation Absolute Resolve, a flawless raid in Venezuela but there's so much more than what meets the eye.The fact that the Nightstalkers could just infil and exfil on gunships guns blazing is insane in the era of gay drones and MANPADS. They didn't even have to worry about the overall IADS. IR dazzlers or just shooting back was very effective against any fuckers that tried to get a shot off. More than half of the air assets in theater being SIGINT and EW just shows the importance of spectral dominance in addition to SEAD and as SEAD itself. It's obvious Growlers used their brand spanking new mid-band Growler pods to jam fire control radars, F-35s used their Barracuda suites, but what the EC-130H's were doing could be anyone's guess. But the power went out and that says something.

Anyone here actually use D-Lead products, or any leadremovers in general?I am currently looking at wipes, hand soap, body wash & shampoo, laundry detergent, and a lot more but theres too many to name...How many should I buy, and should I just buy all of them to be safe?I shoot a fair amount and I’m going to be shooting way more this year than I ever have, and I'm starting to wonder how paranoid I should be about lead exposure...Because I’ve heard horror stories about young dudes who shot their whole lives, never wore gloves, never washed right, ate at the range, reloaded bare-handed and endedup with fcknCANCER or straight up DEAD a few decades later from lead poisoning.>Is this a legit concern, or am I turning into a schizo?>What precautions actually matter (ventilation, washing hands, changing clothes), and what’s overkill?>I also have Pets, and I don't want them getting sick either.
>or am I turning into a schizo?Yes.General cleanliness and don't worry.
>>64754357>and don't worryThis Anon has lead brain. He is mostly happy but gets angry easily.
yes.Hygenall is best (ISML is better than EDTA, they have the patent made in conjunction with the CDC), D-lead is also good...I wear gloves when shooting, take a shower with EDTA shampoo afterwards, and wash my clothes in lead-removing EDTA detergent. I also refuse to shoot indoors and refuse to shoot unplated lead ammo. Every day I use ISML hand soap, and at the range I use ISML wipes and ISML hand soap after shooting.your health is important!lead like, literally directly reduces your IQ. It's awful stuff.
>>64754353D lead wipes are good if you can't wash your hands right after shooting but otherwise soap and water is fine.This is very exposure dependent. If you just shoot outdoors now and then it's really just about wiping stuff down and washing your skin and clothes. God forbid you work at an indoor range or shoot at one regularly though.

The best part of Mass Effect's universe was envisaging all the rape taking place in it. all other details are there to flesh out an expansive well-developed universe for an especially immersive porno in which these rapes can be set.It was a mistake to move the setting to Andromeda.

>>64752974>He doesn't know how to read a graphThis is called a compound line graph, anon. You can recognise it by the shaded area between each line. It's different from a regular line graph. There's no overlap. So for example, in 1993(?) on the graph in question, when the total amount of firearms manufactured was about 5,000,000, pistols and revolvers together made up about half of that (2,500,000), while shotguns and rifles were each about a quarter (1,250,000). With this, consider how skinny the green line is for shotguns compared to the rest of the graph in recent years.
>>64753974>They cheapened the 870 design until their most loyal fans abandoned themYeah. You're left out a few facts while you were masturbating, sport. Wingmaster and Police Mag models weren't changed at all. They cheapened up the Express entry grade crap and a few other garbage grade models. Secondly, despite your furious masturbation, 870 and Mossberg 590s have been reported by both Guns & Ammo and Gun Broker to have essentially the same sales numbers for the past 5 years straight, with the Bergs holding a SLIGHT edge in the pump market. Secondly, the supposed "issue" with the 700 you fallaciously brought up was ten thousand percent bullshit. The claims brought on that weapon for that supposed "defect" dated back to 1948 manufactured rifles and ALL models with the Walker trigger design. I've had a 700BDL since 1983 and that claim is fucking laughable.Asshole anti-gun law firms kept thought they had a winner with a bullshit "cover-up" about the original trigger mech engineer's thoughts on the final design and kept lobbing lawsuit grenades at the company until they finally found a jury stupid enough to hate firearms. After that pissant lawsuit payout, Remington's lawyers forced the company to make a show out of "doing something" in order to avoid any future class-actions.Their centerfire auto pistols have always been garbage. The new ownership had absolutely nothing to do with that.I own several Remingtons, in addition to the bolt gun I mentioned above. Including a 3.5in 870 super mag loaded with slugs and buckshot leaning behind my bedroom door right now, and I have had ZERO malfunctions out of any of them in 40 years.Comment too long.

>>64752355>good, reliableMossberg shotgun is the only gun I ever had break. The internal parts are made of cheap metal and bend out of spec. Everything has to be in particular spec for it to function, the 500 is like clockwork inside. Not a reliable gun at all. It has an oddly surprising number of moving parts that all need to be aligned perfectly to function, and the metal bars bending from normal racking fucks the action up and shit starts to grind or it doesn't function. Cheap piece of shit, i don't buy their products anymore.

>>64753241Which is fulfilled by other Chinese companies nicely. Infiray's thermal reflex sights seem to be doing well there.IMO, Holosun is basically just reddit fodder and while they make nice stuff they have no business being this much of a go-to.
The best optic on the market for PDWs. No worries about the lasers’ height over your thumb since it’s being mounted just behind the muzzle. It can be improved/better optimized for PDWs if they incorporated a white light into it, so you don’t have to stick a giant flashlight on the side of the gun.Edit: was gonna delete my post once I realized this thread is not about the AEMS with the integrated lasers, but I’m gonna post it anyways. Picrel is the new AEMS I’m referencing.
>>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.

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?
>>64754363Having a teenager sound like a total grandma was weird as fuck. She didn't even TRY sounding younger.I'd still bang both of them, though.
>>64752947>very short engagement distances? There's no way 5.56 mm would cut itWhy would it not cut it? Na'vi skin and muscle has to be so dense and strong that 556 wouldn't reach the organs and nervous system to injure/kill them and if that is the case then even 7.62 would struggle. IIRC in the first movie the humans used alot of guns that used some future 6.2x35mm rounds>>64753952>nuke the planet from orbit to get the unobtainiumThey dont need to do that to genocide them. They just need to fly high enough that no ikraan can reach them and just reenact the firebombing of japan or operation rolling thunder.The difference in technology is so different that there is nothing that can stop the RDA from genociding all the hostile na'vi tribes. The RDA should have in the second movie with ease 1000's attack helicopters. Send 10 helis per village to ballistically bombard them video relatedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Squ12m1Ewr4and you would with 1000 helis bomb 100 different villages at the same time.There is nothing that can stop the RDA from doing genocide the old school way. We are talking about stone age tech resisting space age tech. The na'vi resistance and their human allies did nothing for 14 years to prepare so the whole situation is hopeless.
>>64753336>>64753352Regardless of their physical capabilities, gunshot wounds are mostly outside the scope of Stone Age medical treatment. Any Na'vi you see take a bullet and shrug off the wound is more than likely a Na'vi that is going to die a couple days later.
>>64753537>>64753610It's kinda forgotten but Pandora only has 80% of Earth's gravity. Pound for pound humans should be noticeably stronger than Na'vi until muscle atrophy kicks in.

>>64753604or perhaps the dominance of humans lead to extinction of cave lions and the other megafauna. who knows
>>64753700>the dominance of humans lead to extinction of cave lionsSorry, I implied this and was not clear.>>64753267>would hunt Megaloceros>While most abundant in Eurasia,fossil evidence confirms its presence in North America, though it was a distinct species within the same giant deer lineage, not a direct ancestor of modern North American elk.In NA, also. Plus we had Megathierium, the giant ground sloth. And Priodontes maximus, the largest living armadillo. About like a 6 foot round ball, with bones that have revealed clear human predation in Central America. Surelu a .308 would have been good enough for all these, perhaps excepting the cave bear (short faced brown bear) and the cave lion. .338winmag for those guys, if not .378 Weatherby.
