they call it a bull pup because it kicks like a bull!
I scored a TA-11 today for 400 bucks at a gunshow today. I was going to use that money to buy a PA prism. Life is good.
>>64746173I don't get it. If anything they tend to kick less due to tending to be somewhat heavier then a standard pattern, though with the weight closer to the user's center of gravity they don't necessarily feel much worse.
>>64746923Why are bullpups usually heavier anyway? Is it because they make the receiver/area around the face a bit thicker? I remember when I owned my RFB thinking the top cover was very thick.
>>64704630Yeah
How hard would it be for a handgonner to hit a man sized target at 60m?
>>64731447>and that dynamic shooting skill is being enthusiastically given to the worst people in the country.Those people hardly own guns, and definitely don't train or buy ammo. My extremely liberal gun bought his first gun when Trump got re-elected because he literally thinks Trump is going to round up democrats and kill them, and hasn't even taken his Springfield 1911 out of the box since he bought it a year ago. You should not be worried about these people.
>>64729552Not hard. I practice at 50m, and can hit a 9 inch target 8/10 times. .65 ball with a linen patch, with about 70~ish grains of ff black powder.
>>64729552>ITT: trannies and ziggers
>>64743971they were shooting undersized round balls back then and not flush-fit diameter (often rifled) slugs. They did this to compensate for the barrel of the piece becoming progressively tighter due to black powder fouling. if you load your smoothbore flintlock with patched round balls (not a well documented historical practice in smoothbores) and have good sights (instead of just a front bead) you can get comparable accuracy in a flintlock smoothie.
>>64747055iow if you didn’t wad it up with something like paper or tow your musket ball back then was perfectly capable of rolling right out the muzzle if you turned the gun pointing down. Because the ball was undersized. Because loading fast (esp repeat shots) and being accurate enough was more important than squeezing out every last drop of accuracy

I bought a Quest just to play Ace XR, and it's still the only game I've ever played on it. Totally worthwhile investment.Interesting side effect: I'm actually okay at point shooting now, a la Han Solo. Turns out if you have enough "ammo" you can get pretty decent at it. I still would never shoot from the hip 'IRL' (which God willing will never happen), but it's a fun party trick at the range.
>>64746666>I can smell you from here, Rus!
>release refresh model of proven reliable firearm, now with optics cut>add a grip cutout for no reason, so new mags don't work in old gen>change the front geometry FOR NO REASON, so old holsters don't work>make it unreliableColt has raped CZ so hard that it will leave the US within 10 years
>>64747014PFT he thinks that it's colts fault when cz has been doing that it's whole history. People like cz gun, cz discontinues it and replaces it with bullshit nobody wants.
>>64747014I was surprised that they even did a P07 Gen 2, but you can tell it's a half-assed attempt from the forward slide serrations. They're a completely different angle and style than the rear serrations, so you know the company put almost zero effort into the gun.

>>64743625I don't think you know what "sensationalist" means, but you sound like you've got an axe to grind already.It's not the first time something like this is reported.https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-41047721
https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/us-used-sonic-weapon-venezuelan-200357082.html?guccounter=1Its real.
Just sounds like they're exaggerating the effects of an LRAD. Would these be used in a raid like that?
on one hand, probably a dumb idea against near-peer, and even worse with MANPADS, but on the other what is the replacement?
>>64742705Out of a bit over 700 made, there are only ~250 airworthy examples. No more are being made, and what are left are being supported via cannibalization programs or very expensive retrofitting and rebuilding. We need a replacement, that is currently being manufactured. Not an airframe that at best is pushing 40+ years of hard use.It had a damn good run, but the Hog needs to retire.
>>64742705The biggest issue with them is the airspace they can be used in can also be used by turboprops at a tiny fraction of the cost.The Super Tucano is the perfect replacement and can be brough for about the same price as replacing the worn out wings on the A-10s.

how do you defend yourself from homemade flame throwers and other rudimentary incendiaries?
>>64746479Can you point to where the fuck I said that, you mental nigger?
>>64746454It’s because most people don’t know what the fuck they are doing.
>>64746479And acutally you bring up a good point. What is the constant with euro/developed middle eastern countries and gay little scooters. The cops def have this covered scooting after the man spraying strange fluids at them. "I'm gonna get you! Brrrrrrrrr nee nee!"
>>64746508That's true, they're all in a pack mentality and like coyotes or wolves they're all waiting for one to take action so they can all follow. That's probably more a constant everywhere, nigs definitely fight like this. Individual moments in past wars were like that too.

what's the point in hiring mercs who aren't at all familiar with your language, culture, or geography/climate?
>>64745607meat>>64737979
>>64745607funny how the current pop culture image of the mercenary is that of a seasoned veteran who's more competent than regular conscripted militia, when most of the times it was the exact opposite. mercs were hired simply because the lord didn't have to pay for their food, training or equipment, they were a ragtag bunch of misfits but ready to go. and best of all, their officers were not part of the cadre of scheming backstabbing nobles looking for any opportunity to usurp him, so having a general not close to court affairs was useful. the con was that you obviously had no control on it besides the pay.
>>64745627Not one of them looks drunk. So what do you think?
It's like hiring any good help - it is hard and you learn to settle. Sometimes that best you can get is quite bad.
>>64745607Why not? You just give them a rifle and point in enemy's general direction>they capture something congrats great success>they die nobody cares
Considering now tankers have become a valid target for boarding and maybe sinking.Do you have under war laws to mark it if you put missiles on it or can you just hide it until the enemy is in range if they try something?
>>64746878Yes I get you.But you're asking a non-question. You don't understand where the question stems so you ask a question which doesn't make sense considering the starting point. To make you understand this better I'm going to present a question which would present the absurdity of your question:>Would I get diabetes from eating McDonalds if i ate it too much?It starts with the fallacy which answers the very question you're asking. Okay. I'm going to make it really simple: WW3 soon in theaters. Probably 2030 or so.

>>64746745If the weapons were openly displayed, sure, it's legal. It does however have serious ramifications regarding docking and transit rights. Turkey for instance would be able to take the stance that armed merchant vessels cannot transit the Bosporous and if one tried to force passage could sink it without ramifications. It would also cause any insurer to charge exorbitant rates (if one could be found), assuming any of these vessels are even carrying insurance. People have been openly arming merchantmen since the dawn of seafaring. It's doing it secretly that's considered illegal under Maritime law because that's shit that pirates do.

>>64740733I was referring to the awful gear in Alien: Earth. Aliens at least did a good job obscuring what the origin of the USCM gear was. The helmets in the movie were actually based on Vietnam-era M1 steel pots.
>>64744046Bullshit no one alive has seen alien earth.
>>64744046The tactical gear in that show felt odd for a reason. It's meant to look like future gear from the perspective of the past, which is why Weyland Commandos are dressed in black instead of multicam. It's meant to be an impression of 'futuristic' police like forces in an age of 'futuristic CRT monitors'. Much like how the USCM has awkward, clunky, (and frankly ugly) sci fi soldier gear with random shoulder pads and "in the pipe, five by five" lingo
