>>64729585Okay no bullshit, I lost my Drill schedule and i just checked in. Will i get another copy when i get to AIT or should i call them before i shop
>>64732027don't you have someone at your unit you can call/text? your AIT will have nothing to do with your unit's drill schedule whatsoever and won't be able to provide that info
>>64732045I mean its 9 pm. I'll call tomorrow morning. The NCO was incredibly pissy, so hopefully he doesn't answer

Would ANYONE take me at this point?
>>64731592Not really2020-2024 was very bad so even a small jump is noteworthyNow the economy is setting in and people can't find jobs so yeah a few more people joined, but still not a ton. And since jobs are hard to find this makes retention numbers equally good because who's gonna get out when things are uncertainIf you wanna join it's basically the same as any other time. Wait for the job you want but you may not get it if you can't wait. There are still a lot of incentives they can give especially for army, like guaranteed duty station and/or airborne. >>64730912Normal question, yes. You have UCMJ if shit really gets out of hand
Why is this legal?https://www.youtube.com/shorts/2K_mRNHEvVQ
>>64732141Loophole abuse is a proud American pastime
>>6473229518 USC § 921(a)(16)>The term “antique firearm” means— (A) any firearm (including any firearm with a matchlock, flintlock, percussion cap, or similar type of ignition system) manufactured in or before 1898; or (B) any replica of any firearm described in subparagraph (A) if such replica— (i) is not designed or redesigned for using rimfire or conventional centerfire fixed ammunition, or (ii) uses rimfire or conventional centerfire fixed ammunition which is no longer manufactured in the United States and which is not readily available in the ordinary channels of commercial trade; or (C) any muzzle loading rifle, muzzle loading shotgun, or muzzle loading pistol, which is designed to use black powder, or a black powder substitute, and which cannot use fixed ammunition...Emphasis>or (C) any muzzle loading rifle, muzzle loading shotgun, or muzzle loading pistol, which is designed to use black powder, or a black powder substitute, and which cannot use fixed ammunition...It's not federally a firearm. Traditions is being gay fags.>barrel swapDoesn't matter. In the as-sold configuration it cannot fire fixed ammo. Percussion revolvers can take cartridge conversion cylinders and they are not considered firearms unless they are sold with the conversion cylinder installed. QED
>>64732305Read the last sentence.
>>64732309In the as-sold configuration it cannot use fixed ammunition. It is not legally a firearm. Traditions is just being gay because their lawyers are (somewhat rightfully) paranoid.
>>64732303I'm ashamed the rest of the world doesn't share our enjoyment of following the letter of the law to a t while absolutely abusing the spirit of the law

For that dude asking me about the sharpness of the v14 spartan george edges, they’re sharp as fuck. In fact I sliced the hell out of the meat of my ring finger trying to pull the dagger from the sheath Ouch. Got some of that medical super glue on there. The pads of your fingers bleed a ton.
>>64684294Beautiful knife. I wouldn't have the nerve to carry it for fear of losing it.
>>64699815Thanks for the recommendation again. Im a huge fan of this one and Im already planning a 3 day camping trip to try to test it out. I know the sheath is a bit bulky but I liked the pouch on my BK10 to keep some vaseline soaked cotton balls and a ferro rod so I can start fires easily with just the knife and sheath. Love this bad larry.
>>64727900At that price surely they're magnacut with profiled textured titanium scales and ceramic bearings right?
>>64732200Hell yeah!
>Australia makes a version of multicam which actually matches the green trees in their own country>Canada makes CADPAT which actually matches the green trees in Canada>Estonia matches the green in their countryMeanwhile...>America makes a OCP pattern which is completely unlike the green trees in the US>Bongistan makes MTP which is again, completely unlike the green forests of Europe>USMC makes a "woodland" camo which is majority brown, black, and a dark murky algae green which under sunlight literally looks turquoiseHow fucking hard is it to just take a picture of a forest, us the dye dropper tool on paint and then make your camo pattern the same colour as the fucking trees where your soldiers will be training in 100% of the time?
>>64727470US has a lot of different forestsand a lot of areas with no forestsand we do not fight defensive wars on US soil why should the camo match the one type of forest you are thinking while thinking about the us?
>>64729867looks like a tortoise I would inspect closer then shoot you for not being a tortoise
>>64730090I think being mistaken for a tortoise is pretty effective
>>64730070Because if he can't dress up like the real military soldier dudes and also be perfectly camouflaged while he runs around playing Wolverines in his back yard that's like the worst and stupidest and most unfair thing ever.
>>64728402you're the retarded one you colorblind sperg, it literally blends in
Pistol related but last question thread died a while ago. Are all 1911 .45 barrels interchangeable with all other 1911 models? I've got a Kimber and want a threaded barrel for it and I'm wondering if I should just get a Kimber barrel for it.
>>64727581Why do you care if your gun is zeroed then moron? You think the maximum 9 feet in your matchbox apartment is too vast to land hits?
Why shouldn't I long for a world where open-carry is normalized?
>>64676439By Fallout do you mean the originals or the Toddverse?
>>64729450Because there will always be that one guy who wants to bring his Martini-Henry to work with him, and he'll whack you getting onto the train. Not out of malice, mind you, but it's just too damn long to maneuver easily.
>>64731378I'm pretty sure nothing stopped that guy before.
If your ground troops dont hold the line.How much can your Aircraft actualy affect the war?
>>64731880Probably mid-late Korean War when UN forces were being pushed back by the Chinese.
>>64731891Some German pilots racked up a lot of kills but they didn’t have air superiority after 1943. They didn’t have enough fuel and pilots to keep up and most of what they did have was moved to western front to deal with the bombing campaign
>>64731981airspace was heavily contested by Soviet pilots during that time.
>>64728940Unless your enemy is incompetent logistical strikes can only go so far. They'll slow the enemy advance and make them less combat effective, but you do need a ground force.>>64731880Germany up until like 1943 on the Eastern Front, also probably America and the UN in Korea once the Chinks arrived. However having better ground forces tends to go hand in hand with having better air forces and vice versa, thus examples will be rare. If your enemy has fewer planes odds are they have fewer tanks, if they don't train their tankers well they probably don't train their pilots well, if their air doctrine is shit than their ground doctrine is probably also shit. You rarely see militaries with one branch in particular that is much more or less competent than the others.
>>64731880> When was the last time a force with meaningful air supremacy lost significant ground they didn't almost immediately recover?Germany in 1942 eastern front?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbKiz4efUtQAFAIK the germans still kicked soviet ass in the sky in 1942 but still could not reverse the ground lost. The frontline was so bad that a soviet tank corps managed to do a 200km+ raid deep into german lines to attack a german airfield which sealed 6th army fate in stalingrad.
Of the past 100 years of American wars, what was the most fun? Just a generally good time had by all.
>>64713914The Barbary pirate wars were something out of a coming of age adventure novel. Shit was off the chain
>>64728105that was more than 100 years ago my badBUT banana wars sound just as funmaybe even more bananas
>>64728062The other anon beat me to it. Yeah, the inorganic boogaloo meme wherein everyone who rejects our government destroying our country was directed to attack middle class law enforcement officers and the military, even though they are overwhelmingly opposed to political policy dissenters were also against.
>>64726850They don't want 35 year olds with worn out joints, dumbass
>>64713967Based, that's basically how the Mexican-American war started too
Word on the street is that the US bagged another 2 shadow fleet tankers today. With one of the tankers being captured using these little guys. Have we begun breaching into the Tom Clancy timeline, or have we always been in the timeline without us knowing?Also, a general thread on these little guys and what can be done to improve on their airframes and tactical usage.

>>64729620Nukes, according to a /k/ommando that got dubs in another thread.
>>64729244it's from here but it's from new york from 1986 and possibly if you were a nigger or a wop.
>>64729244shut up when you’re streets behind or I’ll teach your grandmother to suck eggs
what is so hard about shooting these down?it's not no plating and most of the pictures ive ever seen of them they're not loaded with like long range guided missiles and shit, it's just some dickweed on a machinegun in the back.by the time you're in its range it's in your range exept you heard it coming from 8 miles away.

>>64732163I suppose. Come to think of it, the resale value for Dodge is abysmal, that explains some of it too

>>64732222I think I’ll take some lvl 2 or 3a. 2 might be easier to throw a jacket over to hold more fent
>>64732235That sounds pretty good but I heard they've got snipers with .50 cals at the corners of Kensington n' east Venango and then a dude with an M240 on Wishart controlling them million dollar blocks. What's the play?I can give my boi Wilson a call and see if he'll make a .50 cal plate. 8002 on crack.
How hard would it be for a handgonner to hit a man sized target at 60m?
>>64731575If hes just walking thats not bad for your knees. If anything it can be good since its low impact and strengthens everything around the joint.
>>64729552Fuck off karl you demon seamen slurping faggot cuck. No one likes you.
>>64731584I think he jogs, but that's less important than it being kind of impressive to see a fat guy be quick. He's not exactly a super entertaining video personality, but I still like him anyway
>>64731370I think the idea was that you would have blocks of them hanging around a big block of pointy stick guys so if horse niggers tried to charge in they would get poked and if they tried to run in circles shooting pistols they would get shot by bigger guns.
>>64731857I'm pretty sure he's aware there's no love for him on /k/Reddit and Discord are probably the only places willing to take him vaguely seriously anymore.What I'm most curious about, is what his fall will look like. Will he shoot himself? Go on an anti ICE rampage? Enter into a gay tranny marriage with tacticoolGF? Fade into obscurity?All seem equally likely to be completely frank with you famalamadingdong
Let me guess, you think your airforce needs more expensive higher performance aircraft.You could get 5 of these fucks and arm them for the price of an empty KR-67.
Just heard the incoming ARAD warning for the first time. Holy fucking jump scare
>>64730992The Chicane's 30mm is far superior to the Ibis 40mm. Velocity, accuracy, ammo count, not needing to reload, can reliably shoot down aircraft within 1km. Only real benefit of the 40mm GL is that you can arc it over cover and the Ibis like a flying mortar

Why did the Chinese Anti-Stealth JY-27 fail in Venezuela? Was it not supposed to track f22s and f35s?
>>64731799There is no greater honor for a Communist than to die in opposition to global capital, hence why Cuba immediately put out a statement about those killed.
