>>64751479two mags is nowhere near enough
Finally picked up my AK from the gunsmith not too long ago. Now I just need my mags to come in.
>>64752953What you got there, sonny?
>>64753119Saiga AKM conversion old man came to the shop and wanted to sell it for 300
>84 years old>still the greatest machine gun ever madeWhat went so right?
>>64752557Why would you out yourself as someone who's never shot a belt-fed in this manner? The MG34/42/45/3 were the best machine guns of their time, but that time has long passed.

All things precision shooting, no experience necessary. Discuss rifles, barrels, action, glass, loads, groups, competitions, and anything else related to the pursuit of tighter groups and longer shots.
>>64752753Levels, plumb bob, tall target test.
>>64751401> left hand twist barrel - it would unscrew from the breech eventually
>>64752753>mount rifle in vise>check level with a bubble level>put on scope>hang a string with a weight on somewhere in front of the rifle so you can see it on the scope>rotate scope until the reticle aligns with the stringOr alternatively just buy a scope leveling bubble kit from Aliexpress for $5
>>64752980couldnt you just also put the bubble level on the elevation turret after the gun is leveled?
>>64753049You could but your assuming the turret is level and square and the retical is level and square to the turret

Neat, thanks for the information on some weird and obscure chinkshit
How would you defeat this?
>>64750872The answer? Use a gun. And if that don't work, use MORE gun.
>>64750872>>64750896This.

>>64752386In the 37 million years though have the Reapers ever encountered a 1911?
>>64752304he still pops up whenever a mass effect thread happens and the answer is yes
How are they still in business? shotgun sales are in the shitter and even if they do sell someone a shotgun, how many shotguns do people buy in their life time?>but they sell .22sare you really going to buy a mossberg .22 over a 10/22?>the patriotare you going to buy a mossberg patriot over a ruger or savage at basically the same price point?>handgunsthey sell handguns? have you ever seen someone with a mossberg handgun?Henry's another one. Are there really that many people buying lever actions and single shot break actions? It's even worse than car companies because guns are cheaper than cars and .22s and hunting guns last basically forever
>>64752406The very same pic you posted shows that more shotguns were manufactured than pistols. Mossberg exports a fuck ton of shotguns to countries that don't allow their citizens to own rifles. Furthermore, we import very few shotguns (picrel from your same link), so if we want a shotgun, it will very likely have come from the US, Canada, Italy, or Turkey.
>>64752974>The very same pic you posted shows that more shotguns were manufactured than pistols.you don't know how to read a graph, lmao. most guns manufactured are handguns. only the tiny sliver of green is for shotgunsand again, shotgun imports are way lower than handguns.
>>64753019>only the tiny sliver of green is for shotgunsCongrats on ousting yourself as a literally drooling 80 IQ retard, the chart specifically shows that at their peak over 10,000,000 shotguns were produced while handgun manufacturing only produced under 5,000,000 in the sane year.
>>64753037>sane yearso you think more revolvers are made than semi auto hand guns and the most popular type of gun is "misc"? holy shit you are retarded.
>>64753073Please tell me what exactly you think these numbers on the side mean, I could use a good laugh.
The T-34 is the best tank of World War II. What about airplanes? According to /k/
>>64739809>>64739882These and DH.98 Mosquito>>64740868anon gets it>>64742280not really (or Ju 52) compared to B-24 Liberator, used in all roles and the most-produced Allied combat aircraft
>>64739356>The only reason it remained in service is because Corsair couldn't design a replacement and end its productionGoodyear was developing the F2G around the same time as the F8F was being developed.
>>64750106From what I've read, Panthers were fairly reliable, the problem was maintenance parts were unavailable.
Tanks are not obsolete they just haven't been updated.Abrams introduced- 45 years agoThe first ironclad to the first dreadnought was about 45 years in comparison.Roughly 45 years between the wright brothers plane and the introduction of combat jet aircraft.>fights in an area of eastern europe over the course of 5 years that was covered sometimes in a day in ww2>tanks are obsolete
>>64751799Isn't the Booker just an IRL version of the Paladin?
>>64752785You are really, really, really overestimating flying IED robustness. Most strikes require 2-3 drones for a kill and due to signal issues youre gonna have like 6 max in an area. You cant beat an enemy like the US that can field way more than a trickle with fpvs.
rise of the reds is shit. shockwave shit.
>>64752837No. How did you get to that comparison anyway? The Paladin is like that 1 Super Abrams CATTB called the Thumper than anything.

What if you made an entire city out of UHPC,How hard would it be to root out the defenders?
>>64751632>i've read about mixing coal ash particles into concrete, and that's supposed to make it stronger at the cost of curing slowerIt's not coal ash, it's "fly ash", glass dust made of spherical 10-50 micron particles, chemically consisting mostly of SiO2 and Al2O3 molecules. A byproduct of coal burning on coal powerplants with exhaust filters.>could you make the giga-nigga concrete mix also cure slower, without making it shitty?I don't know. There are many concrete retarders, I haven't tested any myself.
I just want to tank the concrete artists for their effort postsmay all your pours go smooth and your curing be even
>>64752005:3It's all me, your local UHPC shill.I'll be solo building my /k/ouse for at least 3-4 more years. It's a fully passive solar design meant to last forever.
>>64751986>concrete retardersi know about "retard" being used in a couple fields, but seeing it somewhere completely unfamiliar always makes me giggle like a 13 year old
>>64752021What's the climate? Or more specifically general location (if your willing)?
This is an unnamed rifle developed in China between 1997 and 2009. It was never issued to the military on a large scale.Development BackgroundWhen the QBZ-95 was first issued to the military, it was met with a degree of controversy. Due to issues with the initial production run and concerns from high-level officials regarding the bullpup design, an order was issued to develop a conventional-stock rifle chambered in 5.8x42mm.It was under these circumstances that this firearm was conceived. Its design philosophy was clearly influenced by the (Soviet) Russian AN-94, including the signature feature of a high-rate-of-fire, two-round burst.
An interview with Duo Yingxian in the November issue of Ordnance Knowledge《兵器知识》11月刊对朵英贤的采访Duo Yingxian: Chinese Automatic Weapons Expert, Professor at Beijing Institute of Technology, and Academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering. Born in 1932, Duo graduated in 1956 from the Beijing Institute of Technology, specializing in Automatic Weapons Design. He served as the technical lead for the Chinese Type 67 general-purpose machine gun and the Type 95 (QBZ-95) rifle family. He was elected as an Academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering in 1999. His published works include Chinese Automatic Weapons, Longitudinal Vibration in Engineering, and New Compendium of Automatic Weapons.朵英贤 中国自动武器专家,北京理工大学教授,中国工程院院士。 1932年生,1956年毕业于北京工业学院自动武器设计专业,中国67式两用机枪及95式枪族技术负责人。1999年当选为中国工程院院士。著有《中国自动武器》、《工程中的纵向振动》、《自动武器新编》等书。
'Originally, the 2004 "95-1" project was supposed to focus on improving the Type 95 itself. However, the military’s primary focus wasn't the 95 itself; they wanted to modify it based on the Russian AN-94 (fielded in 1994). Due to major disagreements, the ordnance system selected a different Chief Designer to lead the 95-1. The task force immediately studied the AN-94 proposal, but in 2005, the Russian AN-94 was decommissioned due to severe reliability issues. China subsequently stopped that research and shifted focus to "ammunition unification" (merging two rounds into one). In 2005, the ordnance system issued a directive for the 208 Institute, 255 Factory, 204 Institute, 791 Factory, and 671 Factory to jointly tackle this unification. I had hoped to implement ergonomic improvements to the rifle during the later stages of the 95-1 development, but I didn't expect it to be delayed by the universal round.''本来,95改在2004年以改进95式步枪为主题,但军方的主攻方向不是95式本身,而是想以俄罗斯1994年装备的AN94式步枪为基础来改造95式步枪,因分歧太大,兵器系统另选总师主持95改步枪。课题组启动后立即研究AN94方案,但2005年俄AN94式步枪因可靠性严重不足全部撤装,中国也就停止研究,转而投入两弹合一,2005年兵器系统下文,208所、255厂、204所、791厂、671厂联合攻关两弹合一,我本来指望,在95改进行的后期对枪械进行一次人机功效改进,没想到它因通用弹而延缓。'

IIRC 50 cent was shot nine times but survived because it was pissant caliber like .25 ACP
>all these tiny pocket gunsWhy are you guys buying pants or shorts with tiny faggot pockets? I exclusively pocket carry and usually with a Beretta 80X.>>64742217>no j-framesIt’s like you didn’t even try
>>64752336What pocket are you stuffing your gun in?
>>64752341Probably dresses like this. Or wears cargo shorts and new balances.
>>64752161Fair, I won’t say they don’t. But in that case the smallest NAA still works fine for shooting something in the head at nearly point blank. Or a heritage rough rider is cheaper, better to shoot, and it’s not like you need the concealability in that scenario. If you think they’re neat that’s great. It’s most of the reason I have mine. But “practical reasons” disappear pretty quick outside of the smallest ones. They at least can say they’re the smallest.
>>64746698>Everyone knows it was a wounder 9Maybe you and your "homies" do, Jamal, but not all of us are well versed in hood lore.
If you're the dictator of a shithole how do you prevent the hollowing out/paper tigerization of your military over time? All of these had strong capable militaries until one day they didn't and got their cheeks busted and wig split
>>64753081Rome was also expansionist, which can help to mitigate the issues of loyalist mediocrity that plague dictatorships/empires. Once Rome settled down it became a shit show of near constant revolt
>>64753097Rome was an absolute shit show of constant revolt both Republic and Empire, settled and expansionist
>>64753111explain Macedonian Renaissance
>>64753111To be fair, that was most of history prior to the 20th century.
>>64753120No one cares about gayreeks larp empire, and they backstabbed and civil warred against themselves non stopWhat am I supposed to explain?
WE ARE SO BACK!
da ghosts gonna attack the venezuella and 360 no scope robo-maduro's armies led by rorke and the chinese superman Ximinator
>>64752840Which US citizens are still there? Who didn't bail day after.
Now that's what I call a source.
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.
>>64750888>I just don’t like smugcry moar
>>64750808>So in other words the Venezuelan government is still in chargeyeah. Did you seriously think that the US didn't plan for any local unrest following the arrest of a dictator?
>>64750849lmao I think you're retarded
>>64752164I think you’re rectally ravaged. And a tourist.>>64751893If by unrest you mean a bumbling unpopular president being replaced with a motorcycle gang leader who runs the country by setting up checkpoints and slaughtering his foes and will be buying drones from china for oil.>>64751881Keep up the wall of text about how no oil from Venezuela means Canada is totally doomed.
>>64721934>We have just seen the US carry out Operation Absolute Resolve, a flawless raidPR stunt arranged by Putin for Trump
Imagine the POTUS sent Delta Forces after you.Do you think you would do better than Maduro?
>>64752649>>64752661>>64752762>everyone hates youBut who actually hates us? Besides irrelevant insane third-world shitholes. Anyone who's opinion is worth anything either likes US or doesn't really care. >sinking shipWhat... are you talking about? Even if that was true where would you go lol.
>>64752808Will the SEALs write a book about it?
>>64752762Whore, you brought the government down because you are mafia owned shills that will jump and yell like clowns as long as a washed up literal con man with multiple actual investigations and a life of grift starts screaming about "LE kUrRuPtIoN". And pays and busses half of you there of course.Like actual actual fucking con men, of which recordings exist where they talk about mass buying votes and bootlicking puccian shills, lead and finance your "protests" and you act like you are the saviours of democracy.You are literally J6 wannabe faggots, like that bald psycho cunt with the retarder hat, but without the actual guts of the crazy hoe that got shot.And the best thing ? Your leaders literally did everything they said would happen with this budget 4 years ago. Where were you then ?
