>>64703173>would a Galil magazine work in a Galil
>>64703173Apparently the Galil mag has a different angle on the feed lips, so the bullet might hit the chamber roof and push it in. And apparently Yugo .223 mags are good.
>>64703173Cringe. You're buying a poorfag variant of what you actually want so you'll never be satisfied with it. Why do poorfags do this? The gun you want is $6-8.5k. That's your entry point. Nut up or move on from it.

How effective were these things? Obsidian is said to be extremely sharp and multiple edges instead of one straight blade might be extremely painful.
>>64665416we'd have a continent full of sexy indio ladies instead of all these morisco hags.
>>64634465What if you made this weapon with steel instead of obsidian?
>ACKCHYUALLY stone weapons are really goodBullshit contrarian take. People often get dewy eyed over history's losers, and it results in overly romantic and positive assessments of things that have been lost.
>>64658840I don’t even wanna know why whoever took that picture had to be pantsless to do so…
>>64703435Wouldn't really make any sense. This weapon is what it is because of what they had available to them and what they knew how to make, and it's extremely clever, but ONLY within that context.If you had access to the resources, tools, and knowhow, to make steel, then you could just make a conventional sword instead, which is just plain better.>>64703447I'd say that they're good for what they are, it's impressive that they developed a workable sword substitute without any good metal or metalworking. But ultimately, it's just refined caveman technology, and it has too many drawbacks.I'd love to own a good replica just because I think it's an interesting historical weapon, but if I was forced into a sword fight and got to pick my weapon, I would pick some cutlass, saber, or dao of some sort.
What’s the best gun for hunting polar bears?

>>64703743They absolutely do.Just because one specialised unit does not does not mean the rest don't.
>>64701334They should have 100%. The Ruger Gunsite Scout is undoubtedly one of the best bolt guns ever made, and certainly one of the best on the market right now. People brag about Tikkas being 1 MOA rifles, the Ruger is as well but just doesn't flaunt it.

How effective have they been these last few years, are they legitimately on par with the f-35 and f-22?
F35s operated over Iran supressing air defense and striking targetsSu57s won't approach the Ukrainian border and instead lob long range missilesThat should tell you what you need to know
>>64703781(me)Forgot I had a WEBM.
>>64703778The MiG-31 is the most useful plane since it can go really fast. The Su-57 is just a super expensive missile truck. They'd be vastly better off with more Su-30s.
>>64703794>They'd be vastly better off with more Su-30s.Not Su-35's?

My friend is willing to sell me a Gen 5 Glock 19 with a performance trigger job and Aimpoint COA for $1000. I don't know if he's ever actually shot the thing. I don't particularly want it but I see that regular Gen 5 Glock 19 ls are sold out online. Should I buy it? Is it a good deal?
>>64703210Based Yamaha enjoyer. Fuck I want one of them so bad.
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.
Casting your own lead balls, they always have that little nub or a small flat spot from the mold? They aren't perfectly round?
>>64703368Correct, if you cast them there will always be small defect where the sprue was on the mold. It's not like it matters, the ball is going to get deformed from the ramrod anyway. Standard practice is to put the sprue mark straight up when you load, so that the impression from the ramrod will be in the same place.
>>64703029Many of them will come apart. Some are hinged and use a locking mechanism, in others the breech face and striker/hammer components can screw out of the back of the gun, or the barrel screws off the front. In this case it looks like the barrel screws out. I've also seen quite a few open-bolt designs where you simply drop the round in the chamber, run it home with a finger, and then extract with a stick down the barrel - think the Liberator pistol or the GB-22. The really cheap tubular zip guns are usually meant to be disposable anyway
Tell me about swivel bore rifles. I could google it but I like it when you guys tell me things
So I want a handstop but I was wondering is buying these airsoft versions a good alternative compared to the more expensive ones by major firearm companies?plastic is plastic right?
Thoughts about Baofeng radios?
>>64703318>frequency display down to a single HertzMan, those chinese radios are getting precise!
This should be a good exercise. Pic related is the current radio infographic over in /gq/. Review it, radio thread.
>>64703611>Review it, radio thread.Did a fact check on your amp statement and TRUE! Bhut... from the Amazon description for the B-tech V25 (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076H972DH/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il):>Our amplifier is designed to adapt its output power based on the input it receives, optimizing performance across a range of 2W to 6W inputs. At the lower end, an input of 2W is amplified to produce an output of approximately 20W. As the input power increases, so does the output, reaching its peak efficiency with a 6W input, which yields an impressive output of around 40W in the center of the band. On average, users can expect 30W output, providing a substantial boost to transmission power. It's important to note that while the amplifier can accept up to 10W of input power, amplification levels plateau after 6W, ensuring device safety and longevity without further increasing output.>amplification levels plateau after 6W Again, all of which is true. But they say "designed" as though Third Order Intercept (TOI) and compression are intentional rather than inherent. >reaching its peak efficiency with a 6W inputThe UV-9R I bench tested did not meet output power spec for low or high setting. Getting 6W Pout from a 5R would be optimistic, based upon my testing. That said, if your amp is working, you should get an additional 15-20W in TX power. Now, will this be linear across the band? DOUBTFUL! Pout will NOT be linear from Fl to Fh. If anything, they would tune output power to spec at Fc and fuck it! Gain flatness from Hl to Fh would be a dice roll! Does a few dB in fltness matter? Meh. If there is a spec, it matters. You can likely find this cheaper that the Amazon price, but you won't find a better return policy than Amazon's. That's worth a few extra bucks, imo. Do you want more power? Add an amp. But that won't improve your RX sensitivity. Protip, never trust a commie! In this regard, they lie about thier products meeting specs! Suprised?

This is the bare minimum amount of ammo you need. 3 or 4 mag placards are cope.
>>64689929Minimum amount for what? The likelihood a civilian would ever need 7 mags in any capacity is so unlikely, as to be near zero.
>>64689929I've always carried 11.6x on side cummerbund (3x each side)3x at the frontand 2x coupled mag on the rifle
>>64689987>>64689991>nixieworks is retarded because of the massive buttpackThanks for the link, that type of rig should be a three-day setup. You put bedroll, poncho shelter and maybe dry food on your back, either lashed to the rig or in a small supply bag. You run that setup a little different from a three-day backpack, with combat/hunting load and sustainment on the belt.>t. basically have a clone of that made of Eagle milsurp

What modern day tech could be deployed for supporting a large scale amphibious invasion that the allies didn't have back in WW2?
>>64703696>This is the point that makes the least sense to me.Just look at the Alibaba and tech crackdowns from 2020-2023. Colorful and real capitalistic businesses are the direct result of allowing the consumer economy to choose what they want, and in doing so, the CCP loses control of capital and also control of political power.>AlliesPakis have defaulted or deferred their $60B BRI loan iirc. China has exactly 3 allies in the area, 1st is Myanmar which is in the middle of a full blown civil war, second is Laos which is literally communist and has a tiny population, third is Cambodia which has 50% of it's GDP from scam centers and and is getting pounded by Thailand right now. West Asia is also economically irrelevant, Thailand has more GDP than all of them combined. As much as I hate to say it Xi is probably fine for another term's worth so I hope he gives the go ahead for Taiwan and gets the entire PLA detoothed and himself probably politically assassinated, or else he's gonna turn China into a less kino Best Korea.
