>>64731374>but the point is that carriers are obsolete for anything except bombing brown people>doesn't know that carriers haven't been considered the primary strike package in a fleet v fleet action since the 70s>doesn't know what anti-sub patrols or sonobuoys are>doesn't know the way to deny enemy anti-sub patrols or even basic recon is to shoot down their air assets with your qualitatively and quantitatively superior air assets because you have a bigger carrier with larger aircraft, more sustainment, and high sortie ratesYeah I'm sure Chinkland wants carriers only for face and they have zero utility in modern naval warfare.

>>64730756>Most guns used by Mexican narcos are American because they take 0 effort to obtainThis is a relatively recent phenomenon because they now mill their own AR receivers and bring over lower parts kits and finished uppers.Before that the majority of weapons in Mexico could not be traced back to the US. It was the handguns that were like 90% American-sourced because pistols are more regulated worldwide and easier to smuggle.Ammo was pretty much all bought in the US.
>>64728091Why would a change in government result in them flogging off their military weapons? You'll see surplus when they decide to start replacing shit.
>>64732117You are correct, the only way we will see That are if they start standardizing on nato equipment, or joining nato. Still wishful thinking though, as a lifting an arms restrictions and they can start exporting aks. Yes it’s highly unlikely but still would be interesting if it did go through

>>64723868I got a Ljungman with a cracked and shellac'd stock (twin receiver tang cracks) and I am strongly considering replacing the stock with a walnut one. There's that 1 guy who took a Hakim and fit an M14e2 stock to it with a cheesegrater handguard and outside of the pistol grip, I lowkey wanna do the same to my Ljungman. Maybe a bakelite type grip, a diopter or a scout mount, and a bipod so I can use MG25 mags and turn it into a weird DMR sorta thing.

>>64728459Never said one was better than the other. You're just incorrect when you implied it was a cheap POS rifle, when in reality, it was more expensive to manufacture compared to the AK. It was only so cheap here because of the decades of military surplus being dumped into the US market

How did forces with artillery that had lower range try to cope with Said lack of range back in the days?
>>64730602>Another system that was attempted was to have your assigned machinegunners fire perpendicularly to the cannon barrel, but slightly angled. If several machineguns were arranged in this manner then thr bullets would hit the artillery round mid flight at regular intervals and thus add their momentum to its velocity.Damn for real? You just made that up huh?
>>64732068>they advanced too fast and got killed by their own guns.Grim. Did that happen alot?
>>64732088So long as their officers knew the fire plan and didn't walk themselves into a divisional mass the casualties they sustained hugging the curtain were generally deemed preferable to lagging behind and missing that golden moment when they could take forward trench line with effectively zero resistance.
>>64732113Damn. So they knew some of their men would get blown the fuck up by their own shells but deemed it as an acceptable loss for what they could gain?
>>64732159Yep. The joys of command.
Does anyone know why like 3/4ths of 1866 winchester rifles sold were carbines where as 2/3rds of winchester 1873 rifles sold were rifles and 1/3rd were carbines? they were sold concurrently for a while, the 1866 was sold from 1866-1899 and the 1873 was old from 1873 until like the 1920s. my best guess is that since the 1866 was cheaper and used cheaper materials it filtered out to the west/poorer people more and they actually carried the damn thing so they preferred carbines whereas the 1873 had a much better marketing campaign>the rifle that won the westeven though the west was largely settled by then with only like 1 major injun victory at bighorn after 1873 and a lot of the notable outlaws/gun fighters dead before 1880.So because the 1873 had a much better marketing campaign and was more expensive it was sold more to guys back east who had money who wanted nice fancy rifles and weren't necessarily using them for work or to subsistence hunt like the pioneers were.apparently the 1892s were also 2/3rds rifles to carbines, which I was not expecting because modern hunting lever guns are almost always carbines and you started to see more hunting oriented design choices like button mags after 1900 before the bolt action surplus market displaced the lever guns
>>64722591for what purpose?
>>64726271Alright, I think I’ll go with the 20 inch then>>64726909Cowboy larping
>>64726271what is with velocities dipping down at 17"also why would you even have a 17" barrel
>>64718640>why like 3/4ths of 1866 winchester rifles sold were carbines where as 2/3rds of winchester 1873 rifles sold were rifles and 1/3rd were carbines?It's like, a math thing. It's "advanced fractional computing", very high level. I'm not sure how they did it without computers?
>>64731907the 1866, 1873 and 1892 are all basically the same gun. all they did with the 1866 was make the receiver out of iron and later steel and change the cartridge from .44 rimfire to .44 center fire and that's the 1873 and the 1892, despite being a different action, is a replacement for the 1873 being in the same .44-40, .38-40 and .32-20 cartridges so it's weird that the preference flipped from carbine to rifle
Why wouldn't something like pic related work fine as a "do everything" gun for a person living in the densely forested hills of Appalachia, where the power and ballistic advantage of a rifle simply isn't necessary?>plinking will be good fun with the naturally subsonic .45>definitely suitable for home defense>easy enough to fit in a backpack, or take the can off and carry it on your person>get some .45 Super for killing deer or hogs, or mess around with round ball loadings for taking small game or for pest controlYes, it's true that rifles can be had for dirt cheap these days. And it's also true that there is no real reason to limit yourself to just one gun, especially a handgun. But in an autistic min-max fantasy where you literally can only own one gun and it has to be able to be carried 24/7/365, does a suppressed .45 automatic make sense? The only real downside I see here is that this is not the best option for summertime concealed carry in hot climates.
Good post Op. I personally believe (cost being a factor) .45 acp is the superior suppressed caliber for long guns and handguns.
>>64731902Maybe in a PCC.
>>64731902Why do you need a suppressor? Isn't the scout rifle concept effectively to give the user the ultimate hunting rifle? Something light, accurate, and easy to point with a generous FOV? Where does a suppressor fit into that? Frankly I'd say something like a red or blackhawk with a scope would better conform to Cooper's concept in a handgun but justify your 45 purchase however you see fit
>>64732131You don't "need" it but a suppressor is simply the number one best thing you can do to increase shootability and enjoyment of a gun. Having the option for hunting without hearing protection, or not concussing yourself into unconsciousness during an indoor shoot are huge benefits.
>PDWWhose retarded idea was this? Why not just give everyone M4's?And if that's not small enough, cut the barrel down to 10''
>>64731782>It would only hold like 25 rounds in 10mm though, it's about twice as wide.5.7mm cases are 7.95mm at their widest, 10mm are 10.8mm. so capacity with drop by around 20% or 40 rounds.
>>6473184710mm Auto was first developed in 1983, before the P90. sure the exotic stuff came later but it already had potential at the time.
>>64731904Unless you make the mag taller too, you can't pack them as densely so there'll be additional losses besides the diameter.
>>64731904Neat. Too bad FN is the slowest factory at producing anything and FN USA is not even really affiliated with them other than being an importer and authorized to make cheap plastic handguns with their logo on it.
>>64731802Give me musk money and I'll bring to market one using the kriss recoil system.
>Soldiers and officers familiar with the tank’s operation report that the VT-4 has suffered from frequent malfunctions during both training and operational deployments. These complaints focus on failures observed under sustained use rather than isolated incidents, with crews describing problems that directly affected operational readiness.Of course, we cannot forget the two tanks that blew up. Not because they shot 200 rounds, it was far less and that number was made up by chinks to try and do damage control.https://defence-blog.com/thai-soldiers-criticize-chinese-made-vt-4-tank/Any alternative highly credible sources reporting this?

So European NATO members are expected to deploy strike capabilities comparable to those of Iran by early 2030s
>>64728763This is cope, even ret. NATO generals criticized the "free reign" approach among NATO members citing it a massive liability concern and completely useless for any coordinated missions, going as far as giving credit due to USSR and Warszaw Pact constituents for embracing full top-down standardization facilitating cold war era high saturation logistics. This is just cucked eurocope on steroids and there's absolutely no benefit to this. Also your lack of vocabulary confirms you're a massive faggot, you could've just said "cross-pollination, duh...".This is why Eurofaggots will never be able to mobilize productively.
