You're actually full of shit.

Ming dynasty also had generational ranking

>Qi Jiguang was born in the town of Luqiao in Shandong province (now in Weishan, Jining) to a family with a long military tradition. His forefather served as a military leader under the Hongwu Emperor and died in battle. When Zhu Yuanzhang became the founding emperor of the Ming dynasty, he bestowed upon the Qi family the hereditary post of commander-in-chief of Dengzhou Garrison, a district of the present day Penglai.

Every single one of your earlier claims about the Qing military was also shot down in flames here.

You have to go all in on mobile warfare. Commit totally to mechanization, nobody ever goes out on foot anywhere, if people leave armor, its only momentary. But this only works if logistics can support it, and to do that, every logistics vehicle has to have a hybrid drive. To make the point, airborne would be turned from light infantry to logistics, they get dropped with forklifts and fuel tanks and support the men on the ground.

The bullpup is the infantryman's rifle. It's compact enough to be practical inside mechanised transports, it is usable in the confines of buildings and trenches, and it maintains enough barrel length to reach out further than any faggy little M4 will manage while still having a physically shorter frame. It just fucking works.

What's everyone's bet on the next big gimmick finish for woman guns?
First it was pink, then there was that big Tiffany blue kick now we've got cow.
There's already floral and leopard print and so on guns being marketed to women right now but those are all third party rather than factory as of current save for maybe some weirdos that prioritize having a shitload of finishes on a small catalog of guns like the late SCCY (RIP, you're being straw purchased in heaven's pawnshops now)
I'm betting on something floral.

I liked the High Republic aesthetic on the blaster.
Not the greebles but the pearl/gold/wood/beskar colour scheme. I think an elegant minimalist design with a simple palette of eye-catching contrasts with a fashion label's imprint could work.

I think you're confused. AR auto sears are not held in place with a friction fit. As >>64692997
explains the pin is held in place by a spring leg in a groove (normal installation) or by the walls of the receiver (no-hole sear holder being discussed). Not that there's anything wrong with friction fit pins when they are perpendicular to recoil. Your gas block is held in place by friction fit pins. Everything in a glock is held in by friction fit pins.
>>
>>64693306
gotcha, yeah I think I was confused, I was thinking how would this piece here >>64692497 fit in the receiver without a hole drilled, and the answer is friction apparently which is neat

>Not that there's anything wrong with friction fit pins when they are perpendicular to recoil. Your gas block is held in place by friction fit pins. Everything in a glock is held in by friction fit pins.
gotcha, fair enough, thanks for the explanation

>>64693385
No it is wedged between the safety and rear of the receiver, it ain't goin anywhere. Some other designs use the rear takedown lug like a boogle.
