i wanna turn this cheap PA15 my coworker sold me into a commando style build from black ops 1 like picrel. has anyone here done this before?
>>64672256I thought that was already settled with the TC case, any firearm that can be assembled in both a pistol or rifle configuration can be freely swapped between the two as long as a title 2 firearm is never constructed. Did something happen?
>>64672256bro who the fuck cares? shut the fuck up. even the ATF couldn't give a fuck less unless the weapon was used during the commission of a crime.
>>64672256Legally? Sure.Practically? How the fuck would anyone be able to prove it?
>>64672256I thought the 0 dollar tax thing was only for suppressors, not SBRs. Am I mistaken?
>be me buying a troy rear sight from my lgs>neckbeard behind the counter asks me if im building a black cocks commando clone>tell him no lol just like the sight and its for a block 2 clone
Realistically speaking what are the mechs even contributing to this military force that you couldn't get by just swapping out the APCs for IFVs instead?
>>64675879>it's easier to get a single mech than it is to get a single infantryman>in the era in which Mechwarriors will desperately queue up to pilot a Charger-1A1 or even a FrankenMech because even those absolute piles of garbage beat joining the Dispossesed or, worse, the infantryAbsolutely delusional. Never talk about the lore ever again, retard.
>>64676396Yes, as shown by the hundreds to thousands of infantrymen the actual militaries of the setting are fielding for every Mech they have.Reminder that Davion RCTs are extremely Mech-heavy frontline commands, making up a majority of the largest unified army in existence in the 3020's era. And what does such an RCT field? An average 108-130 Mechs (if they aren't understrength, which most Mech regiments are in the 3020s, unlike tank and infantry regiments), backed up by three times that in tanks and some ~5200+ infantrymen.
>>64677065>as shown by the Great House militaries and militias fielding thousands of infantrymenSo the guys who are rich enough to afford infantry are using them, while the poorfags who can't afford infantry are stuck using mechs instead
>>64677131>rich enoughRetard take. Recruiting infantry is cheap. Personnel expenses for a large infantry force, less so. (IE a Mech lance will cost you less upkeep in peacetime than an infantry company.) And interstellar supply lines for massed infantry use on someone else's turf are really expensive. Hence infantry is used primarily in a defensive role that does not require interstellar supply lines.And in that role, the infantry market is so oversaturated that mercenary infantry makes little sense, because with all the House infantry, militia infantry, paramilitary private security, corporate in-house security forces etc, that are everywhere, merc infantry just can't make a profit outside rare niche uses. Mechs allow your merc company to make money, infantry mostly doesn't. Simple as.
>>64677147Doesn't seem very realistic, mechs don't need infantry coverage so no reason to spend all that on infantry.

My emperor and I thank you Ahab. This is the only gift I got for Christmas and I love it! It makes me want to be a better person. The letter on the back of the paper is so heartwarming! I wish we could do something like this for birthdays and special /k/ days! I hope my target feels the same amount of love and joy I felt when I opened this. From the bottom of my heart I thank you Ahab and everyone who participated. You guys make want to live another year simply to get a chance to do this all over again! Truly the highlight of the year for me

How effective were these things? Obsidian is said to be extremely sharp and multiple edges instead of one straight blade might be extremely painful.
>>64673054That sucks.You'd think the natives would be able to fight off the Spanish. There were millions of the former and only a couple thousand of the latter.
>>64634465Effective for their situation? Absolutely.Effective against European armies? Nope.The only empire in the americas who stood a chance against europeans were the Incans but they were in the middle of a plague, civil war and probably busy fighting against the mapuche.
>>64662294what is this image supposed to convey
Probably very effective. Given their weight, they'd hit harder then say... an axe, would bind enemy weapons.The relative fragility of stone edges probably wasn't that big of an issue, there are a lot of stones on each edge, they had two edges. And I suspect you'd find that this also made it very hard to bind or parry them. You'd have some capacity to saw with them, relevant if you were half handing them or were grounded. The drawback would be the weight, you couldn't use them for fencing. But if your primary weapon was a spear of some kind that wouldn't be so much of an issue. Wooden weapons also don't bend, where metal weapons often can. Look at the Japanese clubs that were used to break other weapons. The matchakulti would simply break most metal swords.If your spear broke, you'd be fighting against a spear with your side sword. Having a side sword that could break your opponents spear was probably quiet important.

Jake Paul posted a photo of himself on his private jet surrounded by money and guns.One of the guns appears to have a silencer. Aren't there very strict rules for transporting those? Aren't you supposed to inform the ATF if you cross state lines with an NFA item?

Gripen pilot, shareholder, and spokesperson says stealth is irrelavent 70's tech on major youtubers podcast
>>64676850>Fox says grapes are shitty, fake and gay
>>64676855>f22its amazing how people think f22 with an mcm from the 70s a cockpit designed in early 80s and implemented in late 10s because LM was in court fighting NOT to upgrade it and having a radar that is basicly a chimera of parts is somehow relevant in the aesa era
>>64676850>we can't develop it so we just say it doesn't matterThose grapes are indeed sour.
Are Gripen Es really more expensive than F-35A? How is that possible?
>>64677144You are now learning economies of scale matter a lot.
PCC thread for my newest fixation. MP5-SD clonePost with me to celebrate, rimfire welcome
>>64676383The trigger is genuinely horrible, and I'm not a trigger snob (love/shoot well with USPs and MP5s) It's also freaky heavy but I think that's the "sporting" barrelThey're in gun shops, go handle one before you buy
>>64676294Never heard of them before. There are other better-regarded companies that do UMP conversions like Black Ops and HDPS. I'd go with them first.>>64676383>Besides the obvious retarded stock and grip, what makes the USC so shit compared to UMPs?USC isn't compatible with UMP mags. If you want to use hi-cap mags, you need to go for 15 round Pro-Mags (the 20 round Pro-Mags are unreliable) or the 20 round Hera mags (reliable but rare and expensive). If you want to use UMP mags in your USC, you need to plastic-weld your USC magwell to be bigger and open-up the magwell slot in the upper to accept them. And if you're willing to do all that, you might as well just swap the USC lower for an UMP lower and do a full UMP conversion anyways.>USCs converted to UMPs, and UMPs built off of S5 receiversUSCs converted to UMPs work great. I've heard mixed things about UMPs built off of American receivers.
>>64676593>Black Ops and HDPSDamn, I know cloning and conversions of anything not an AR gets expensive but I do not have that kind of money. Hopefully Track and Armaments turns out well with their lower prices, I guess I'll let others beta test for me. I'm not exactly in a state to be buying ~$3000 guns right now anyways.
Why is nobody posting guns anymore
>>64670623I had one, just sold it plus my 9mm upper on tacswap. Worked perfectly fine in my AR15 lower with glock mags, even the LRBHO worked. I really liked the mag release placement bevause it was super natural to press either with your thumb while swapping mags or with your trigger finger.
Would you join the military right now if you had nothing going on? I'm at a crossroads as I've been laid off now for 8 months.
>>64676734>letting your military be infested by goycattleNapoleon was able to get into the position he was in largely because he was a military man. If he was another fuckwit revolutionary he would have gotten Robespierre'd like the rest of them.
>>64677013Go get ethnically enriched by a shitskin, you glownigger kike faggot.
>>64672652Yes.At least that's the plan, to sign up for professional service (in the land forces) before spring. I've managed to get myself on somewhat stable footing in life, but that's the only thing going for it.
>>64672652Would have done it. 4 years for college and a security clearance? Totally worth it if I thought of it. I'd be making bank right now if I had security clearance
>>64672652A mere year ago, I would have told you it would have been the worst decision of your life. Now, it would be among the best.
Does anyone have any more photos from when Russians where right outside Kiev?Tyvm
>>64674634remember those long ass 4-5 hours videos on youtube from back 14-15?they are all goneremember also those long ass videos from russians in kiev from 2022?yes you guessed it they are all goneliterally every link i saved has being deleted
>>64677062hahaha we were just pretending
>>64677066i encourage everyone to buy large hard drives and keep an archive of everything you enjoy. don't expect website to keep the content you enjoy forever.
>>64677062any counteroffensives will likely be the same way russia has done their offensives. small attacks to reclaim bits of land here and there to make the Russians send resources to focus on containment, at least I fucking hope
Going for a sniper build on this 308 wlvrn, got my wife to be my cosniper with the range finder, anemometer, and binos. Haven't fired it yet but was wondering if you guys had any advice or anything to add.If not, desert tech general.
>>64673570Id implore you to do some research or watch a YouTube video, they come highly praised. Its made of aluminum and carbon fiber with the bipod built in, you get the whole handguard as an integrated unit. The price reflect a proprietary handguardxbipod with quality materials that folds to take up no additional space when the bipod is folded up. It can even cantilever. Lose the McDonalds/Walmart everything has to be the cheapest mass produced slop mentality. It under 1k anyways its not that much money for what it is. Enjoy a quality design and build.>I'd just get a normal Harris/Atlas bipod.Not directly comparable
>>64673570The selling point is more so the weight then the bipod's ability. For what it offers at the weight and bulk it has its second to none
>>64673570>look like a memeThey’re actually really damn slick. Well made too.

UNKNOWN AIRCRAFT APPROACHING US AIRSPACE
Nothing ever happens
>>64676106In 1965, astronauts Wally Schirra and Tom Stafford played a practical joke on Mission Control during the Gemini 6A mission.Schirra radioed to Earth: "We have an object, probably in polar orbit... Looks like it's going from north to south, probably in a very high inclination... It looks like a command module and eight smaller modules in front. The pilot is wearing a red suit and a long white beard".Schirra and Stafford then played "Jingle Bells" from space using a smuggled harmonica and jingle bells.>>64676108Explain my new pyjamas then
