Think we'll ever get full body armor?
>>64718719Looks like an Ali Express airsoft helmet
>>64717812>will the state ever value pleb life that highlyNo.
>>64748881They would if the armor can be made cheaply. Gambesons weren't the best protection but they covered most of the body. A padded coif and simple skull cap would protect the head and tough boots would protect the lower legs. Even the lowest footman was given this much simply because it was cheaper to armor him than replace him.
>>64746676yeah that's what I'm saying. The japs didn't adapt check-aimed firearms because it was good or conducive to their tactics, they just didn't develop at all for almost 200 years from when they were first introduced by westerners.
>>64726110>Still falling for the 'Syria used chemical weapons' meme in the big 2026The US claimed to bomb ISIS in the region and yet they only got more and more powerful, getting equipment out of their ass seemingly, in reality getting airdropped weapons and equipment by the CIA. Then when Russia started bombing ISIS the news threw a shitfit for weeks, and only then did ISIS holdings in Syria start reducing in territory. The CIA continued arming "moderate rebels" in an effort to displace Assad because Assad didn't have a high opinion of Israel, despite not really taking many actions against them. A modernized country on Israel's border, or so close to them, was a threat, and so they were taken out. Not because of 'muh chemical weapons'. If you're winning a civil war, and you have the backing of Russia's airforce, and you have your own air force, why the fuck would you start putting nerve gas or improvised explosives into barrels and dropping them out of airplanes like donkey kong. It's logistically, tactically, strategically, politically, retarded. The White Helmet organization has been caught several times staging fake attacks and filming 'aid operations' in response to them, which is what the media used when showing clips of supposed chemical weapons use, and this was before deepfake even existed, a good 3-5 years before.tl;dr dont be a fag

I just got a high paying job and in celebration I'm going to update my arsenal. Pls give input on my choices for these roles and let me know if there's something better:>Ruger SFAR as main DMR rifle, open to other short receiver .308 ARs or a .308 bullpup>M&P9 or 10mm Witness as handgun, I do live in grizzly country and this will be my primary HD/clearing gun>Kel Tec RDB as building clearing/HD rifle>KSG as HD shotgun>Mossberg Aftershock as drone gun to be worn on a scabbard, can also double as bear gun with slugs>300WM rifle as sniper (undecided but either a cheapo Savage bolty or go all in and get a Desert Tech SRS for $6k)Already have my carry guns set and most of the common rifles for range funs but want specific ones that best fill those roles. What are your go-to's?
>>64750963>>Ruger SFAR as main DMR rifle, open to other short receiver .308 ARs or a .308 bullpupI went with an LMT MWS for my DMR gun. I love it. Consistently 0.5-1 MOA with 6.5 CM. Don't use the caliber swap feature much but I've got a .308 barrel I can slap on if I ever need to. >>Kel Tec RDB as building clearing/HD rifleAUG
>>64751248Hmm, the reason I don't have an SFAR already is it doesn't have too great of accuracy from what I hear. Definitely a concern. The LMT doesn't have a short receiver but that seems to only affect how far you can scrunch down the collapsible stock, and weight of course. But not like I could use the stock fully collapsed comfortably.AUG is a second choice but the RDB is like an updated version of it it seems. Good trigger and gives you the option of comfy lefty shooting.
>>64750963That is a beautiful rifle. A true testament to the ingenuity of the White Man. Show me something comparable from Africa. KEK
>>64750963.357 or .44 mag is WAY better that 10mm. And take that to the fucking bank.

jpc 2 status in 2017+9?
>>64751211People like it, you could probably find one used too. Other options exist that are newer like lv120 or arc 3, if you want something really light similar to jpc you could check out esstac daedon. I ended up choosing defense mechanisms mepc, I have to wait another month before they finish it but they have a huge choice of camo and cummerbund, structured, laminate, elastic, hybrid, Velcro tubes roc etc. I chose the most expensive cummerbund tubes hybrid structural 5" plan to run side plates. It was $370 using a coupon code after adding plate bags so I'd recommend it on price, features, camo, quality etc. Most these brands want you to pay premium and nickel and dime you on everything, I also don't need a zip on back panel that I can't get into. Decide what you want and see who makes the closest to that without paying for shit you don't that you have to pay more to get what you actually wanted
Protech 2230s came in. Was going to use them to replace the ones in my PC, but decided to consoooom and buy another one since I got a good deal on it.

One of my favorite moments was messing up taking down a shock drone, getting a double-feed and having to run away over a balcony, jump and clear the double feed mid air and shoot one of the windows on the other building to break through. R1 is dirt cheap and has mods like 870s and Kar98, R2 has better graphics and more enemy variety.

>>64748142I'd say the general population would not associate these bags with guns or you being armed desu. Unless it is too "tactical" looking.Those of us who carry or spend time around guns and know these purses - we know there is probably 50/50 chance there is either a gun or drugs... Or both.IMO just get a small bag like that but ideally less tactical looking if you dont want to stand out too much. As I said, the general population does not seem to care or know based on my experience.

The ziggers have come up with another brilliant plan to counter drones, walking tents! Guessing mostly for night ops to reduce thermal signature?

There is a rescue boat waiting for you on the coast. Between you and the boat is every carnivorous dinosaur from Jurassic Park films. You have one gun and all the ammo you can carry for that gun. What gun would you use?
>>64708376>Large carnivores were distributed uniformly across the globe? Is this true? I don’t know why, but I always had the impression that India and especially subsaharan Africa got really unlucky with their local megafauna, and those further north got lucky with much more favorable conditions vis a vis being eaten. Though I guess it could just be that Europeans hunted the carnivores to extinction.Carnivorous megafauna in the northern Eurasia and North America died out because the entire ecosystem collapsed with the end of the Ice Age while the climate in Africa and India is more or less similar as it was in the Pleistocene. Europe and America had massive carnivorous hyenas, lions, saber toothed cats, dire wolves, cave bears, lions and leopards and for the most part their entire ecosystem depended on mammoths generating mammoth steppe by preventing forests from growing. When humans/climate change killed off the mammoths the environment changed completely, the other herbivores that evolved to live in steppe environments died out and all the hyperspecialized predatory megafauna that ate them lost out to more generalist carnivores like modern wolves, bears and mustelids. It's also easier to find food in the winter time in tropical climates so they were less reliant on hunting megafauna to survive year round which is why you still have elephants, rhinos and huge ungulates etc in Africa or India but they were hunted to extinction in Eurasia and America

You'll be running the fuck out mostly and you also need lots of ammo with stopping powerSecondary should be a shotgun, you don't need a pistol instead bring as many knives and pointy things you can stab a dinosaur withEven a tomahawk/all steel axe would be useful
What tools for self defense would you recommend for someone in Europe to have when shit goes down. There are black powder revolvers shotguns and rifles, but you can't buy them everywhere in Europe. There are crossbows and bows but what is really their capacity to defend, and of course air rifles, in some countries they are unrestricted in some countries they are cucked and they are a hassle to have around in the case of an emergency. Better yet what should everybody own, not just weapons, in case they want to survive more than 72 hours.

>>64746392Go to your local drug/whore den three times. Buy some pussy or coke the first two, say nothing about anything else. Establish a presence and a willingness to "get dirty" (do business with him). This is to establish legitimacy, show him you're not a cop. The third time, ask the nice Albanian man to show you his finest wares. He'll only briefly think about stabbing you and likely show you a shitty combloc pistol. Go ahead and take whatever you can get. If for some reason this is a regular business of his and he shows you more, I recommend grabbing whatever your nation's police/military uses. Grab some hollowpoints if you can.
What’s your favorite gun? Mine is my Nighthawk Custom Predator in 10mm.
When i got laid off from my cushy tech job they gave me a big fuckin blanket of a severance package, cashed out all my vacation hours, gave a lump sum of estimated medical benefits charges, all that stuff.I used that to keep stable for about a year and find another job, get a new apartment, and buy some things i needed to buy.My absolute last 700 dollars from that pile of cash was used on this cool lil guy.The best part is that i've been looking for a beretta compact forever but didn't like that only Landberg Tactickstein has them in their most basic configuration. By swapping the slide and barrel it removes most of the LTT branding except for the serial number starting with LTT.
