Post wheelgats. Just bought this 3rd change hand ejector dated to roughly 1912
>>64671481>>64671353i am loving 100 gr high desert wadcutters and JHPs in .32 hr magthe recoil is extremely soft. half the recoil of standard pressure 38 with more or less .38+p ballistics/effect. federal 85g jhps get like 20" of penetration too. deeper penetration but slightly less cavitation in gel than 38+p but there wasnt much in the first place so it's all shot placement. you get 6 rounds and while QC is hit or miss with SW now that's the industry standard and the 632UC has great grips.for a 16oz gun, half the recoil of .38 with 38+p tier performance is great. if you get an SP101 which i might you can use buffalo bore's hot .32 mag loads which are .30 super carry tier. might need to send this off a gunsmith for an action job but it works fine just meh jeet quality control compared to old SW but that's every company now for the most part. highly recommend the cartridge though.for what extra power 38 gives you over .32 its only a little and frankly not worth the recoil, hand pain and loss of an extra bullet when you get faster and more accurate follow up shots and still in the 38+p category of overall effectiveness with the right loads
>>64694172only real downside is the ammo is expensive but you can train with 32 long from sellier and bellot since they hit about point of aim tooi enjoy the grips and actual iron sights and the ability to put this in a coat pocket and do anything with it. holster or no holster. very easy to be armed in those moments you'd normally leave your gun at home and you're not underarmed by any means either and your hand isn't going to get raped like with a .38+p in an airweight
>>64694164I have one of the new 3" barrel ones with the half lug, its OK but has sticky extraction on standard pressure factory .327s. I really should send it into Ruger and see if they'll polish the chambers under warranty.
>>64695386how smooth is it overall? modern sw is gritty as fuckit works but there's issuesi don't plan to touch .327, 32hr is perfect
Anyone have experience with the Chiappa Rhino? I am toying with the idea of getting one for the lulz, and maybe to carry if I end up liking/trusting it enough.

>>64695046sometimes during attacks, he had mozart played over the radio.one of his officer said in an interview he did this because he wanted his men to keep some humanity during battle. this created grotesque szenes in the carnage of the armored desert war sometimes.once their column drove thru an ambushed british column with bodies dismembered from artillery fire covering the floor and hanging out of vehicles. This while Papageno from Mozarts Magical Flute sings how he catched alle the girls.
>>64695046He punched above his weight in North Africa. But ultimately that front ended up an expensive mistake for Germany. Those men were sorely needed in Ostfront and could have tipped the balance in Germany's favor. Rommel's own grueling and enduring ways would have been good fit there.

I am very curious to know what /k/ would use in the zombiepocalypse. What would actually be best? I always thought that the writers for the show had a lot of missed opportunities for /k/ino guns, gear, armor and weapon concepts both from history and modern times they could have applied to the show. A lot of stuff just felt like it was missing. Every time there was an actually big faction it seemed like they didn't equip their grunts with the most effective choices. Keep in mind, it would still have to be things that you can continue to use well into the future. There is no military supply chain in the zombie apocalypse unless you are with an utterly gigantic group of survivors.
>>64694209Ammo is neither instantly accessible to everyone nor located in the same place. You will run out of ammo.
>>64694989>slow moving targets that you can get within 50 meters without having to worry about supressing and can carefully and selectively shoot in the head>no capacity to chase allowing you to just leave if you need more ammoYeah, no, you're just making shit up because you're retarded and wrong.
>>64693730the best large unit tactic I can think of is pike and shotMass produce whatever the best firearm you can is (presumably some sort of musket) and a fuckload of pikes, then drill all your troops as hard as you possibly can and you should be more or less unbreakable in the fieldThe zombies will not break a disciplined pike wall and can be freely shot to pieces by the musketeersYou can even still manuevre the formations after contact is made with a horde, since pressing with the pikes will push through even the thickest mass of bodies in time, assuming everyone holds their nerve and doesn't break formationIf they dont, then replacement infantry are cheap and easy to train because of the relative simplicity of their weapons and tactics
>>64695057If you were able to fully arm and armor a group of soldiers with 13th/14th century knight armor you wouldn't need to do any of that, because your basic soldier is effectively immune to any damage any zombie could cause. As long as they aren't completely surrounded and torn apart one limb at a time by a horde, someone in full plate, chain and gambeson can do whatever strategy they want in dispatching the zombies since they will never get bit or hurt pretty much ever. Now, when it comes to other factions of survivors- I think that's when the medieval armor strategy begins to have trouble. Since other factions are probably saving their modern guns and ammo for war, if someone does have a gun it will punch straight through your armor as long as its stronger than a .22 short, bird shot, .22lr, and other assorted cartridges that are also teeny like that. In the show, as time went on, less and less people had access to firearms- even for the purpose of warfare. Smaller groups would routinely completely run out of ammo and would have to rely on more primitive weapons for survival and war. A good example is the reapers in Season 11. They had a very small number of guns and would rely primarily on melee weapons and throwing weapons. When they first ambush Maggie's group, if someone in that fight was wearing a full suit of armor- they would have been effectively unkillable- outside of the small chance that someone could grapple them and stab them in the neck by lifting their helmet up and slipping a knife in. However, a good fighter wouldn't let that happen in the first place and would press the advantage that the armor provides them.
>>64694989Talk about yourself faggot I have enough ammo to double tap everybody in 5 sqmi and I live in a urban/sub-urban area. There are 3 active duty bases within reasonable travel distance, a reserve depot, and a national guard depot. There are also at least 10 gun stores off the top of my head within a days walk. Not having ammo and not knowing where to get more sounds like a distinctly you problem.

Boring topic but I'm finally happy with what I've cobbled together from different components I've acquired over the years. Covers 5.56, 7.62, and 40mm bores. I'm a milfag who works for a living so no 9mm handgun for me. Does double duty for both my personal rifle and my issued weapons. >1. Repurposed Otis 5.56/9mm Defender cleaning kit pouchNot the only thing that'll work, but I like that it clamshells open. Got it as a gift. I pulled most of the extra shit out of it because having pull through cables and bore snakes in addition to a full on sectional cleaning rod is just redundant. Use one or the other. >2. Two ragsJust a cut up t shirt. One for wiping shit off with, one for laying small parts on. PSA: You can, in fact, wash these every once in a while. >3. Otis stiff bristle brush Have gone back and forth on carrying a brass one too but I've either never needed it or the shit was baked on so hard (M240 gas plug) I had to use a scraper. >4.

>>64688166Any tips on keeping this kind of thing and spare parts organized?

Was the Yugoslav military the 4th strongest military in the 80s-90s before it fell apart?
>>64695752Yugoslaia fell apart when it did because Slovenia was assertive. Serbs wanted a 'one man-one vote' policy while Slovenia wanted increased decentralization and more power to the republics.Slovenia walked out of the 14th, and last, congress of the the league of communists of Yugoslavia followed by Croatia>"We cannot accept a Yugoslav party without the Slovenes". >When Milošević asked what it would take to recommence the meeting, the Croatian delegation remarked, "the Slovene delegation".Shit went downhill from there.
>>64695878You're right, I had confused it with raki (which is flavored).
>>64695943It was too late by then. If they were assertive during 60s and 70s before nationalist elements gained prominence they could have steered the economy to be more eficient and productive, lessening the impact of 70s crisis and in turn stimming nationalist movements. But then again it isnt fair to put the burden of entire what if scenario on them.>shit went downhill from thereShit went downhill when Tito changed constitution in 70s giving more power to individual republics before cultural/national unification was complete. It just created more divisions between constituent nations. Milosevic, Izetbegovic and Tudjiman are direct result of that
>>64696224>It was too late by then. If they were assertive during 60s and 70s before nationalist elements gained prominence they could have steered the economy to be more eficient and productiveThey did, Edvard Kardelj was largely behind the worker self management and economic system. >before cultural/national unificationSomething that would never have happened.>Shit went downhill when Tito changed constitution in 70s Edvard Kardelj was also behind the 1974 constitution. Likewise Slovenia and Croatia were pressing for further economic reforms.>It just created more divisions between constituent nations. Milosevic, Izetbegovic and Tudjiman are direct result of thatThis come across as contradictory then. How would a more centralized government enable smaller republics to better influence the central government?

I have a carbine and a 20 inch hbar. Like I understand having more than one AR. I understand having multiple carry guns for different weather, having a collection of curio and relics (even if they don't fit the ATFs definition of C&R like if an action for a new gun is cool or modern millsurp or whatever), I understand having multiple hunting rifles or shotguns for different game or having multiple target rifles or clay shotguns for different sports shooting. I don't understand having 15 copies of what is basically the same fucking AR.

My great grandfather was a decorated officer in the US Airforce during the Korean War. My great uncle has a display case with his medals, and his service rifle, which is a select fire M2 Carbine. I haven't inspected it closely, so idk if it's functional or demilitarized. If it is functional idk if it registered or transferable.Has anyone heard of a scenario like this before? I can't find any examples online of an officer being given an M2 when they retired. I'm also certain that it is an M2, not an M1 Carbine.My great uncle plans to give me his guns, including that one at some point in the near future. Obviously I hope it's transferable, but I think that could only be the case if it was registered when he retired. I doubt that he submitted any paperwork for it later in his life, and I know that my great uncle never did.Any thoughts or advice?

Why don't modern rifles have a cleaning rod along the barrel anymore with a cleaning kit in the stock/grip?Seems like a pretty inelegant solution to give the soldier these separate maintenance packages when it all could be mounted on the gun, easily and quickly accessed when needed, and never misplaced/lost.

Not much of a statement besides that the flight time was a little under three hours, they mentioned it 'flew along the flight orbit set in the sky above the West Sea of Korea' which typically means they did something fancy like draw a pair of figure eights or something like that to show off.The statement was very short and there were only two images, usually this means that the next day there will be another announcement with significantly more detail when they know it didn't go wrong.The long flight time is why the launch images are at early dawn but the impacts are in daylight.1/2

The brits did It with during WW2 to fight off German subs and Luftwaffe raiding their merchant ships, called CAM (Catapult Assisted Merchantmen, ship) and MAC (Merchant Aircraft Carriers): https://youtu.be/i6BqpInpZ2wSo nowadays with Steam and Electromagnetic catapults and CAA/UCAVs wouldn't that be much easier?
>>64695479yeah that's what escort carriers are in WW2. they took regular civilian ships and converted them into aircraft carriers. they were slower and smaller than proper carriers but they let a ship carry, launch and tend to planes. unfortunately most jets require a much longer runway to take off and land than prop aircraft unless you got for a VTOL like a Harrier or F-35B which can do that from anywhere and there's even one time where a Harrier made an emergency landing on a random cargo ship
>>64695479You can but it is more like privateer activity to bully other merchant shit.
