>duuude gun laws are pointless because everyone with 4k worth of tools and 2 weeks of free-time can build his very own SMG (that has an effective range of 10 yards)ok but where are you going to get the ammo? sure, smuggling 10 rounds across the border is easier than smuggling a weapon but for a proper "protect the rights of the people"-situation you need hundreds if not thousands of rounds per gunseems like it would make more sense to build DIY long range rifles instead of SMGs / Pistols so you can get the most out of each roundyes, you can make your own ammo with blanks and slugs but that stuff can be banned too and then its back to square 1
>>64630041An actual retarded autistic German loser managed to make his own ammo from scratch and go on a shooting spree with it. Retard.Before we had modern brass cartridges paper cartridges were used as well. They still work. So do plastic cartridges, the only problem with them is a likelihood to stick in the action which can be resolved.That's of course ignoring even simpler solutions like black powder with electronic ignition. You could easily make simple cylindrical preloaded steel cartridges like that.
>>64636402or you could detonate a gas mix with a spark and never have to worry about casings, priners, chambering, none of that shit

>>64630148NTA. But that’s not the point. The point is that the right is more interested in guns as neat toys, collecting them as funkopops, larping, etc. While the left is interested in violence. I wonder who Darwin favors.

>>64632202Before 4chan was neutered, it was influential. Check the amount of traffic 4chan gets, and combine it with it's notorious nature (which it no longer is). Mostly everyone here was a gun owning white male with anti-government sentiment. A mixture between deviant degenerates (furries, feet fags, hentai gooners, etc) and ultra conservatives that barely co-existed but had unifying anti-gov sentiment, and cared about the second ammendment above all else. Where the hate term fudd was popularized.All of 4chan was fair game for whatever you wanted to say unless it was an extremely obvious troll thread. And even then, the jannies MIGHT have taken it down. Not always guaranteed. Much more lenient. Now you mention something about the men's with dresses suicide demographic, or mention their pet n-words, even within context (nig or troon shoots up a place), and it's an insta 3 day ban.This all started when they colluded to ban all political discussion, even the politics regarding the preservation of weapon ownernship was effectively banned off a DAMN WEAPONS BOARD FFS. Then came up the military enlistment generals using pics of sheboons trying to appeal to zoomers plus the ukraine and russian shills and this place turned to a shithole that can never be fixed
I see a lot of load out threads, but not many 'worst case best case' onesSay your country had a serious break down of law and order, society hasn't quite collaped yet, things might get better, but in the meantime things are pretty lawless and if you had to defend yourself the police won't be asking any questions afterwards.What's the minimum level of weaponry you'd accept in order to defend yourself, family and property?What's a mid tier, and what's the best possible case? Keeping in with what you could realistically own prior to the current unrest.I'm in the UK so worst case>I have a double barrel shotgun and some bird shot, still more than a lot of people would have>mid tier I have a decent pump/semi auto shotgun with buck shot or slugs, or a .22 semi auto or both>I have a bolt action rifle in a powerful caliber with enough ammo, plus some sort of cap and ball revolver/ semi auto .22 or shotgun. The main thing being I can shoot both at range and close quarters effectively
>>64635939the best case is muh dik + muh bawls
>>64636026Cheap, disposable shoot and scoot mortars on technicals are going to be a big thing, IMO, even if it's just for harassment fire.
>>64636017>>64635939What is going on there?
>>64636061I know, that's why it's the worst case>>64636483I'm asking what is the minimum level of arming that would give you a chance if the worst was to happen, what is reasonable and you either have already or can easily acquire. And what your ideal would be, you might not have it or it would be difficult to get under your countries laws. It's probably harder for Americans since you can just say 'AR and a Glock' to all three.The Bondi beach shooting got me thinking about it, since they were using manual operation firearms and still caused a lot of deaths.
>>64636523Nothing yet, it's just a thought tht came to me after watching in Australia carrying out a mass shooting with bolt action rifles and shotguns.
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?
>>64637096Japanese mechs are only made of explodium if they're not being piloted by a MC. Hell, the Gundam franchise from the outset goes with the exact opposite of what you claim.
>>64637153In most cases the MC just doesn't get hit, he's not particularly more durable than other mechs
Do they count as mechs if they have four legs?
>>64637108it's a retarded fan theory because it doesn't explain why each planet hasn't got like twenty thousand tanks
>>64637263Real world estimates put the number of tanks worldwide at 70,000 regardless of operability. Most of the planets in BT have unified governments and very low populations, which means the politics and economics are against large standing military forces.
This is a literal combat ship.
>>64637152In naval war with China the ships will take either zero hits or multiple hits for which there's nothing to do so those anecdotes don't really offer anything.
>>64637235Stark was just a frigate and survived two direct Exocet hits. If every US warship is tanking multiple AShM while shooting down the majority of incoming missiles, that puts them in a very advantageous position compared to the PLAN's fleet that will instantly sink from a single lucky hit, even if their air defenses are up to the same level as the USN's.
test
>>64632982How the fuck are they struggling to design a fucking frigate?America was literally shitting out world-class warship designs every fucking year in WW2 and into the cold war they designed half a dozen NUCLEAR CRUISERS from scratch.But a frigate breaks their minds? Did they replace all the draftsmen with jeets?
>>64637272>in ww2In WW2 Pennslyvannia alone rivaled Germany in steel manufacturing. Today China dominates global steel production and America is barely in the picture. In WW2 America was close to 50% of world GDP today its ~25%, its 14% if you prefer PPP as a measurement.>China overwhelmingly leads global manufacturing with nearly 28-29% of the world's output, followed by the United States (around 17-18%). Another thing that gets glossed over is that American Industry in WW2 gets a massove boost from investments made in WW1 to scale up even further and the lesson learnt from WW1. That shit isnt happening today America's best bet is its allies, but good luck beating protectionist instincts (looking at you Maine and Wisconsin)

I've got a serious strategy to beat China in WW3. Let's say we're trying to invade Shanghai: we'll humidify the fuck out of Shanghai's atmosphere with milk particles. Chinese people by-and-large are lactose intolerant, so all the Chinese soldiers will be forced to surrender due to shitting their pants or experiencing a tummy ache; meanwhile, the milk in the atmosphere will enhance the combat capabilities of western soldiers. It doesn't violate the Geneva Conventions because milk is technically not a chemical weapon, and it'd be humane too since it doesn't even cause any permanent injuries. We'll haul over all kinds of equipment and boatloads of milk to achieve it, and we could even "poison" Shanghai's water supply with milk, leaving the Chinese with zero ability to fight. There'd probably be mass desertions too since PLA soldiers would just ditch the trenches to get away from the smell of shit.I don't know if chemical weapons are within the scope of /k/, but what do you guys think? Should I try and lobby this idea to a think tank?

FCAS is clearly dead, there will be no shared plane. France is able to develop it's own plane, Germany is not. That leaves the question, does Germany back down? Do they enlist the US/France/UK to build vital components? What other methods can they do to produce a future fighter?
Easy, Rheinmetall and Helsing are nearly ready to reveal the german 6th gen fighter.
>>64630244Damn I'd love to know what you're smoking
>>64630244source ? UCAV is not a fighter
>>64599739I am fully convinced that Dassault is already developing a 6th gen fighter demonstrator on the side. They are trying to sabotage the whole FCAS project. It was three options for them:1. Win majority on FCAS fighter and relegate Airbus DS to a supplier and crush Germany's aero industry2. Scuttle FCAS so France has to stay with them as a sole supplier3. Lose majority on the FCAS fighter and have Airbus DS become a rival in the fighter jet industry.It seems like they will go down route 2 since the French Parliament is basically in their pocket and route 1 was always a gamble.
>>64625640>nuclear deterrent comes firstAnd the FCAS NGF will be their airborne deterrence, yet making an aircraft CATOBAR-compatible will have negative consequence on its kinetic performance. Like it or not, while frogs mostly relies on nuclear ALCM. That's still doesnt mean the jet should be a flying brick. And that comes at the cost of muh "CATOBAR", something that the us can easily shut down on a whim, something frogs repeatedly throwing tantrums after tantrums whenever someone place a new order of f35, while their poojet got pwned by chinks temu.

It would end up the same way the Constellation did.
>>64634836The USN can't into cheap and effective. They can only do expensive and effective. This might sound bad, but most countries are expensive and useless. There are many reasons for the US to be this way but the main one is a project will fail if it doesn't line a Congressman's pocket. Cheap projects will have low payouts. Simple as.

Whats everyones experience with buying guns, ammo, other sporting goods, hunting gear, reloading equipment.How do they compare to Cabelas, BassPro, and Sportsmans Warehouse. And Gander Mountain? I do love their price match, was able to get them to price match with gunmagwarehouse on gen 3 pmags.
>>64636787I never managed their account but was close with the guy who did and saw all their data. They're a MAP store as far as I know. If the price went up, it's almost certainly because HK raised MAP or cracked down on them for violating. Maybe both.
>>64636993This is what I dont get how come both the HK SP-5 and SP-5K are the same price?
>>64637044Because the MSRP is the same. The work I do now involves setting MSRP and MAP for products so if they're like any mfgr I've ever worked for, MAP is dictated as a percentage off MSRP within line. If MSRP is the same, MAP will be the same and thus they'll cost the same in stores. If you're asking why MSRP is the same, there are dozens of factors that play into that, not least of which is just "cause the people who decide feel like it."
>>64635649Generally better shopping experience, selection and pricing than most corporate chain stores. Their used guns aren't priced at crackhead prices either, with some occasional genuinely good deals to be had. On the whole I prefer an LGS, but if I had to buy something at a chain store I'd take Scheels over SW/CAB/BP by miles. I haven't been in a GM yet so no comment on that.
Better customer service though more modern selection as far as guns go. You'll fine treasure more at Cabela's and bass pro, but enjoy a mandatory several hour long wait for them to actually sell you the gun. Scheels is probably the best out of the bunch

It's comfy. Somewhere between old pub in bumfuck nowhere Ireland and WW1 trench. Me and the boys love it.
>>64637180Oh, I thought you meant a BAR
The furry oneWorking in the military industry and losing grip on normie reality, because I have colleagues around me who are similarly tism-affected. And our regular over-the-coffee conversations contain homosexual innuendo, stories from Afghanistan, erotic fantasies about guns and ammunition. It's common to come across a situation where someone is practicing the jet-li maneuver in the office. Or one of our colleagues is trying to guess how many rounds have our Glock 18 through by licking the barrel.
>>64637190A BAR in my bar sure would be nice. But I got a door bell outside made from some smol WW2 howitzer shell. When you pull a string you activate a little hammer with a bearing ball on its tip that smashes against the shell. Actually sounds pretty nice like a purpose-built bell
