>You'll need to do better than that
I'm not that anon or arguing his general point for him, but anyone with 20 bucks to burn can get a HAM handset delivered to them in 1-2 business days whether they have a license or not. I don't know where the hell you'd find the numbers for this or if it's even possible to count, but with such a large delta between the effort required to acquire a radio and start broadcasting and the effort required to get a license to legally broadcast it seems incredibly likely to me that most people operating amateur radios are unlicensed.

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 pouch
Not 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 rags
Just 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. Plastic pick
For all the things a long, slim, pointy object is good for when trying to clean tight spaces.

The millitary is for people fit to fight, and it's not your recruiter's job to fix any paperwork issues you have proving your psychological fitness.

>The unanswerable question seems to be "how is anyone supposed to turn their life around?".
What? That happens all the time, with people all over the world. It's certainly not going to be easy for you.

My strongest suggestion is for you to not to pursue a military career path for now. You are not your childhood, and the military is not the only place to remake yourself. You're already ahead in understanding that you should be different in the future from the you in the past.

SOCIAL SERVICES.
STATE DEPATRTMENT OF REHABILITATION or equivalent.

MEDICAID- PSYCHOLOGICAL SERVICES, if needed. Some form of psychological support is definitely warranted, but it's not clear at all what is needed and useful here.

There's no magic here. There's no psychological equivalent of an x ray, or pills that fix everything.

Then maybe he shouldn't tell me he's "working on it", but I'm still in the process of seeing psychs and therapists that I can't really afford just so it looks good, anyway. Of course, I don't think I need it anymore, but obviously I'm not supposed to be the one to judge that for myself. At least I'm not the only one that agrees that I've actually been doing better without medication. I guess I just need more paperwork that essentially says "he's fine he's fine he's fine he's fine he's fine he's fine he's fine he's fine he's fine he's fine, etc.", before the military actually considers that I might be fine.

Why aren't scoped handguns more popular?
11 replies and 2 images omitted. Click here to view.

>>64704485
Handgun for close combat, if you can't hit a shit from 10 - 15 m using iron sights, go to fucking range and train. Also handgun ammo ballistics ain't so good. Need a scoped gun? Get something starting 308. Need reflex sight, put it on CQB 5,56 - 12 gauge gun for 0 - 100 m combat, need middle range, same 5,56 with 4x optics for ~200m. Need to use pistol, like civilian self defence, never put on hollosight on it, this shit will ttangle in clothes, hang on shit, make gun bulky and you don't really need hollosights on that kind of gun period, just fucking train to hit target in 0 - 20 m range. So, scope on handgun is meme, hollosight nice to have GIMMICK. It's usefull but i personally hate it for carry gun.

They are popular within that niche. Requires a handgun like/skill and reason.

Game hunting with pistol is challenging. Most faggots reading this board masturbate to plastic long guns with zero hunting application.

Silhouette gonging is fun, but again, a niche sport.

My mentor carried one of these in a cross-draw during deer season back in the day. It always seemed too much hassle for me. If I'm taking game with pistol, it's iron sights, or nothing. And mostly, I'm using a rifle.

But not gonna lie, pistol gonging is fucking fun!

Eh, the ratio, sure. I just compared sectional energy, which is what actaully matters, and what OR is trying to approximate. The difference is attributed to the .358’s higher pressure.
>>
>>64707614
What is sectional energy if not the ratio between the amount of powder and the cross sectional area of the bullet?
>>
>>64707620
I’m not actually positive. I think you can compress more powder in the same case volume, and it will run at higher pressure. Also, grain size and shape affect pressure, things like that. I won’t pretend to know for sure, but I do know there’s obviously more to total energy than just case volume. If there wasn’t, changing pressure would have no effect on velocity.

Dramatically increase the number of anti-tank weapons available per company (preferably per platoon). That or train them in improvised ways of destroying AT-ATs that don't consist of CIRCLING THE FUCKING THING WITH A CABLE.

Also having a strong bite-force means and animal will just chew through fucking steel bars: because teeth don't break, animals will continuously engage actions which hurt them, and tigers can't be contained indefinitely by chain-link fences. Even rabid bears can be contained by little more than chicken wire. He could have claimed that the raptors where a genetic fuckup which acted the way they did because they were a mutant chimera of shit all suffering from inherent psychosis.

Its interesting how maneaters only pop up in bunga-bunga lands, particularly pajeetistan. Meanwhile in white lands random famers with slings exterminated lions and elephants for eating their sheep and barley respectively. In the book they made the "pet dinos" delusion on the part of the competitor corporation out to be retarded but that would be the most likely outcome. Tiny pony diplodocus and knee-high t-rexes.

The guard and the police had a secret parallel command structure which was activated when Slovenia decided to go independent.
The JNA stockpiles mostly ended up in Serbian hands but Slovenia captured a bunch more anyway.
Slovenia survived because Serbia wasn't very interested in Slovenia, compared to Bosnia and Croatia.
Serbs just go wild for Muslim pussy, it's irresistible to them.
