Why do modern soldiers get PTSDs from killing sandcoons using drones from 40303 miles away safe and with air conditioning when soldiers 2000 years ago rejoicide at the chance of slaughtering the local populance with impunity?
>>64666284They did. All the time. There's plenty of historical accounts going back as far as you want about people having nightmares, becoming alcoholics, developing violent mood swings, and other clear symptoms of combat related PTSD. You just didn't hear about them because you're not dealing with serious works and are just reading/watching pulp content that deals with flashy stories. >>64666540>that dumbfuck "quote"Heraclitus never said anything remotely close to that. It's based on an 1980s, off-broadway play. Dave Grossman, the retard selling "warrior police" and "sheepdog" horseshit to cops, picked it up and slapped Heraclitus's name on it because nobody would give a fuck about some quote from a New York play. Like the rest of Grossman's bullshit, the idea behind the mangled "quote" has no basis in reality and SLA Marshall was an idiot.People have been more than willing to fight and fight hard since time immemorial.

War was fucking easy back then. Months of marching with your buds, maybe a couple of days of actual combat over a fighting season. Pretty easy on the nervous system compared to modern warfare.
>>646664761. Is my brother in law. Did 20 years in the Navy on boomers, has 100% disability rating for PTSD because "the knowledge that my boats nuclear arsenal could end the world caused me continuous mental anguish"
>>64666284>>64666344There is documentation about "war is... le bad" going back almost as far as there is writing, and the only reason it isn't as old as writing itself is because the first Babylonian texts can be put in one of three categories->20 bushels of grain, 14 lamb shanks, 30 jars of wine, 20 dried fish>If a Ghost is haunting a house, the priest must do [extremely precise ritual], but not if the ghost is also doing X, Y, or Z, in which case [3 other complex rituals], also don't forget to just slap a "immunity to all" spell on the house while you're at it>I AM KING KINGGREAT THE GREAT KING, I AM MIGHTY AND IMMORTAL AND ALL MY FOES HAVE BEEN CRUSHED I WILL RULE FOREVERand all of those texts are written by extremely educated members of the religious order, even the early kingly texts would have been written by scribes.I don't feel like looking up what the actual first documented "war is le bad" text is from, but the oldest that comes to mind that I already know of is by greekfag Aeschylus with his tragedy "The Persians" in 472 BCE.

I wish there was more footage of the 1911 frt
Looks like there are more alternatives to allow FRTs for B&T platformEast Valley Tactical apparently has an option now, but it requires a rarebreed which is not included in the priceIt's really expensivehttps://youtu.be/bhgRbWwk-sAhttps://www.eastvalleytactical.com/product/apc9-frt-conversion-service-does-not-include-frt-trigger
>>64667128adding more information hereThe alternative to this is the lowers that asdesigns are making, but this would be a complete lower change and you would need a super safety or an ARCI feel to me personally I would like the service by east valley because it uses the same lower and the safety is 45 degreeWith asdesigns, you should be able to have more trigger options though

>>64667305did i fuck up i hear in general the king cobra target in 357 is a good gun but like anything else i see some complaints on the internet
>>64666618Idk I think the M77 is better. A control round feed Mauser action rifle with iron sights for $1,300 is based as fuck
I have been considering my first revolver and I think I might like to carry it. .38/.357 seems like a pretty good entry point and I have been looking at ballistics tests between the two. I'm noticing that .357 typically has better expansion in defensive loads but generally lower penetration while also having significantly more recoil and muzzle blast. It really seems like maybe a .38 Special or .38 Special +p load is really the way to go, despite >muh chronograph line go upCan anyone red pill me on .357 from a 2-3" revolver?

>>64664940Then the expensive warships sailing out to intercept cheap cargo drones are putting themselves in intense danger. If ground launched missiles are really so invincible that no warship can go within 500 miles of a coast, China will not be able to enact a blockade. If anti ship missiles are not so all powerful, then the US can also use their ships.

Why are Ruskies so fucking gay? They don't even have some excuse for being gay, like when all those sandniggers raped Frenchmen who were campaigning under Napoleon. Were these mudslimes from central asia or actual Russians? Either way gay as fuck.

>>64660590>Doesn't mean you can't be a shooter, but it's annoying, and typically a lot of these competitions allow you to use an eyepatch for your dominant eye to ease your handicap. If you're not cross-eye-dominant, then an eyepatch isn't going to do anything for you, it's just for evening out the overall odds somewhat.most people are partially dominant in one eye. not completely. it's not like handedness where people use their right hand for everything, a lot of people have weak eye dominance. I know I have weak eye dominance and I can only shoot both eyes open if the sight is illuminated like a red dot, fiber optic, brightly painted front sight or bead that's catching the light. I can't shoot both eyes open with national match sights> unless you're out hunting with Dick Cheney.that's not a dick cheney thing that's because retards don't wear orange unless mandated so there are a ton of shootings due to buck fever during any hunting season where orange isn't worn. my state mandates orange hats and vests during squirrel season because people kept getting shot in the head

Point blank doesn't mean close range, point black means at a range where you don't need to adjust your sights to hit your target. 350 meters are considered point blank for 20 inch ARs because if you have a 300 meter zero you don't need to adjust your sights to hit a man sized target out to that distance

>>64667271That's a nonsensical reaction to my post, I'm only commenting on my observations. I've made no judgements, only commented on frequency.People who profess hatred of the US generally seem to assume russia will win.
so let me get this straight: it has the profile of a ww1 tank, is slow as an interwar tank, has the armor of a ww2 tank, has the gun of a modern tank BUT with worse range, penetration, and precision, doesn't have CMs, doesn't have ERA, doesn't have an autoloader, doesn't have GPS, doesn't have telemeters or aiming softwares of any kind, it barely has an electric motor to turn the turret, it barely has a radio, and you're telling me THIS is a futuristic design?
>>64666595Careful anon the noguns fags are here to tell us how lasguns are like m2 machine guns again.
>>64665273It actually does have good armor on the front, being able to bounce battle cannon shots at ranges of eight hundred metres.Its just its side armor is poor and its rear armor depending on the model is barely there or non-existent and allows someone with an actual WWI-era anti-tank rifle to disable the engine.And obviously, the front armor doesn't extend to the completely exposed tracks.
>>64665273Leman Russ is an extreme version of the T-55 Obr. 2025 or X1A Stuart phenomenon where an obsolete, but mechanically simple design is crammed full of as much contemporary technology as possible in an effort to keep it competitive. The Custodes' hovertank is the actual futuristic tank, while the lemon is something that can be cranked out of a freshly-industralized world.
>>64665300Could they ? YesCould they do it at a galactic scale ? Difficult, given that it takes anywhere from a few weeks to a few decades to cross a given stretch of space, that interstellar communication is patchy at best and that the mecanicum is kind of anal about changing designs.Could they do it at a galactic scale and then retain the know-how for thousands of years at that scale ? They probably tried a few thousand times and since they are still using the Leman Russ today, you can guess the answer.There are better models. Purely local, produced in small amounts and dependant on local industrial standards and bureaucratic laxism. But the export model ? You better hope it is respecting the imperium-wide specs or it will be rejected by the clerks of the munitorum and that's going on the "tithe penalty" section.
