How does this happen, picrel?
>>64692677Dehydration and high blood pressure are the most common reasons
>>64692856Fuck, thanks for reminding me I have 3 of these in the freezer.
>>64692677Actually it's pretty common, 1 out of 3 artillery pieces will suffer it at one point in their life, same with ERA pattern baldness. It's a shame we as a society don't invest more into research to prevent such issues

>>64692677Aren't these just an inflatables?
Was the Yugoslav military the 4th strongest military in the 80s-90s before it fell apart?
>>64693047This shit is so good.

Do the upper echelon military dudes continue to train with firearms throughout their careers, or would they be completely useless in a fight?
>>64692940I mean if I were that high in the command structure I'd be getting my fix on the 120s and 155s, by that point even 240Bs wouldn't be enough for me. I may even have to transfer to the navy just to chase that dragon even harder and shoot the 16"s again
>>64691169in a real military, there are sergeants to do what Lt. Colonels do in the Russian military.
How important does one need to be in order to carry whatever sidearm they want? Can a general carry a SAA like Patton in current year?
>>64691794Yes. He's also probably Hubbard's son, his birthday would fit the timeframe of Hubbard and Parson's Babalon Working.
Can't this guy summon demons to fight for him anyway?
Why were the huge Qing Dynasty armies so ineffective in the Opium Wars? They have to be the most one-sided wars in history.
Thank you /k/ for your particular blend of historical/military autism. I enjoyed this thread.

>>64693523You'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.https://desuarchive.org/k/thread/64666880/#q64675999

Hello /k/ board, have you seen my grandson?
In this thread you can only post the absolute KINO guns, I'll start with the one in Leon the Professional

>>64694063Ironically I've never played that, but just realized my mistake. I conflate mg42 and mg3 nomenclature frequently, meaculpa

Discuss cheap solutions to the drone problem.Not welcome:>dronefags>laser fags>missile fags>unknown technology fags
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.

What's the best cap and ball revolver? Are they suitable for home defence?
>>64691929There are conversation cylinders for some cap and ball revolvers that allow you to use 45 long colt as well.

Those of you who denigrate the bullpup... go to hell
>>64694183Israel’s GDP is $550 billion. That 5 million sure is vital I bet
>>64693920The 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.
>>64694115I guess they just insisted on 1000% reliability in the desert and forgot about the rest

This thing, if only because the rockets can be fired by being leaning against a rock and lit with a match. Also technically man portable.
>>64685733Just copy the french military. They are the gold standard in cost effectiveness. >MUHHHH THEIR EQUIPMENT IS TOO EXPENSIVE If you produce shit in your own country, buying said shit is basically just handing money to yourself, think about it.
EDC? i think so
>>64674253I think husbands and fathers see this kind of gun and say(my wife/daughter) would love this women really don't care as much as people think
>>64673769What'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.
Fellas, I love cow girls (kemomimi), cow girls (furry), cowgirls (yeehaw), and girls in cow print bikinis, and every combination therein. I very much wish to touch the cow. I need to get my wife a cow print bikini. Sadly, she only had b cups :,(
>>64694075Just get her pregnant a lot and her tits will get bigger
>>64693637>What's everyone's bet on the next big gimmick finish for woman guns?You play Jedi Survivor?I liked the High Republic aesthetic on the blaster.Not the greebles but the pearl/gold/wood/beskar colour scheme.

>>64693149I think you're confused. AR auto sears are not held in place with a friction fit. As >>64692997explains 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.
>>64693306gotcha, 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
>>64693385No 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.
Niche as fuck but they still make these on custom order. Someone needs to make an FRT for it
>>64693910that would be neato
>>64692598Also set the AI to aggressive because in the normal setting sometimes the Western allies, if they are winning, don't bother to invade Normandy / Italy and just let the Soviets take all of Europe uncontested and it's really lame when that happens. Aggressive setting prevents this.

Israel is paying for those planes right?: https://www.reuters.com/business/aerospace-defense/pentagon-announces-86-billion-boeing-contract-f-15-jets-israel-2025-12-29/

>>64694137>Israel is paying for those planes right?It's something of a joint America-Israel payment plan. You pay for the planes and they pay for your politicians.
>>64694137>Go on Reddit because of course those "high IQ" definitely-not-Indian Redditors will surely have something to say about this>Every top comment in every sub reads like this: "Well you see goyim, Israel uses this free money to buy American planes, so we are ackshually doing YOU a favor by taking your free money and free weapons">Not a single comment asks if this supposedly benefits America, why don't we give free weapons and money to our real alliesThe internet is over.
