I can’t believe it took a 30 minute video to say what we already knew, which is that 10mm Auto is the superior automatic handgun cartridge, and that only after having to water it and then .40 S&W down for the women, manlets, and fags in the FBI did they just settle on 9mm because there was no difference at that point. Amazing.>But muh fire rate!Literally doesn’t matter in a combat scenario, doubly so if your shots don’t actually land. Paul Harrell already established this in his 1986 Miami Dade shootout analysis. Lift weights and carry 10mm, anons.https://youtu.be/ZybcWWu4ddk?si=KptwdszD7hCNFTQE

>>64745717>My argument is that you're overstating the difference in performanceThe fact is that I’m not. I’ve killed deer within average body weight for human beings with both 9mm and 10mm handguns using JHP projectiles within comparable ranges, with comparable barrel lengths, lung shots for both. When cutting open and examining the tissue, there is a marked difference in the tissue disruption from 10mm. More tissue disruption is always going to be more lethal. That is an immutable fact. That lol9mm is “good enough” because we have limp-wrists who can’t handle 10mm does not invalidate that 10mm is more lethal. More lethality = guaranteed elimination of threat with shots on target.>This would have you spending more time at the bench than rangeLearn how to set dies and what a progressive reloader is.>That would be very impressive if you had a kill count to show for it. Grave fillers use 9x19, simple as.Only because that is statistically the most likely cartridge to have been used given its commonality. This same logic also applies to people believing 9mm is “perfectly adequate” for bear defense because they don’t understand statistical analysis and sample size.>No, I'm the American that posted the image you have for the OPYou need to understand the facts I’m giving you then and gain more education and experience before you post another one.>10mm doesn't compensate for poor marksmanship so it's irrelevant for the purposes of demonstrationPoor marksmanship makes all calibers useless. Good marksmanship + 9mm will still be less effective than good marksmanship + 10mm. I never once acted like you didn’t need good marksmanship. The fact of the matter is, if you cannot be fast, accurate, and repeatable with 10mm Auto, you should not be in law enforcement.Everything I’ve laid out in this response has already been said multiple times beforehand. We’re going in circles at this point because you’re either illiterate or refuse to be wrong.
>>64745799The rubber has to meet the road and you're telling me I have to invest for a new gun and reloading equipment before it actually does. I'm just sceptical of the 10mm endorsement from the man who doesn't have an optic nor WML on his EDC + durr gun, no offense
>>64746010Perfectly understandable, anon. And I respect that. If you wanna get really mad, I have to confess that my 10mm’s aren’t even my daily carries, lmao. It’s a USP .45 loaded with either HST +P or Supers. Thanks for the good time.

Why was Austria Hungry so bad at war during WWI? They were a diverse, multiethnic country and since diversity is strength shouldn't they have been able to rape and gape the bongs, frogs and commies? Did they have inferior firearms or artillery or something?
>>64739977>They were a countryAnd this is where you're effectively wrong already. Austria-Hungary was effectively two countries that happened to have the same head of state.
People shit on AH a lot. But I think they deserve *some* credits for being able to hold out as much they have on 3 simultaneous fronts with the dysfunctioning multilingual army(ies - since Hungarian Honved was separate) they had. Everyone was busy justifying their own governments post war, so nobody was there to neturally assess the empire. Nationalist sentiment was a meme. I mean it was a problem, but mostly for the rich and educated people. The poor didn't care. And Princip got bullied to death in prison for the assassination, it's funny.
>>64744538The fun thing, the Italians never kinda sorta really won against the AH. The best they did was to contain their offensive (that was already running on fumes, because the fucking Hapsburg military was starving) and when the Royal&Imperial Army started collapsing because everyone went home the Italians desperately tried to get some kind of victory to prove they did something of value and weren't simply clobbered like seals for the entirey of the conflict (Vittorio Veneto).If you stop for a moment, the survival of AH was nothing short of amazing, they had terrible industry, had to work with half of their country being Hungarians and nonetheless they managed to kinda sorta drag on with a war against the serbs, the russians and a knife in the back from the italians.Amazing they endured as much as they did.
>>64746101The main force at Karfreit were the Germans.
>>64746160Yes, and Rommel was surrounded by cheering Italian troops happy that the war was over and they were free from Savoy slavery."Caporetto was all the Germans" has always been a bit of propaganda to justify the collapse. Not unfounded, but often exaggerated.

>>64744486That looks collectible as fuck.>>64744578>$1,570 a plate in 2013. Adjusted for inflation, that's $4,370 a setAnd here I thought our inflation was bad...
>>64745064Definitely collectible as a high end Ceradyne. As for others, the MH3 CQBs would be over $5k a set. 96034s about $4,892 a set (and that's what Delta paid for them in a bulk ~<160 plate order, not civ price because those were never sold to civs). Ceradyne's best plates got really expensive back in the day. They were one of the few ceramic plate manufacturers that made their own strike faces from scratch, not like Hesco / Highcom / LTC / RMA, who just get their ceramics from Bitossi or Coors or St. Gobain. This meant Ceradynes had a performance edge because they could dope and add additives to their ceramics freely. Now that they're defunct, some of their stuff like boron-enriched boron carbide is essentially lost technology.
>>64744639Glad to help, those are some nice plates. Make sure to run IIIA soft armor behind them. Also maybe foam pads, but in front of the plates to make up for lost drop protection. I would double down on having them x-rayed. I'm sure there's a lab nearby.>>64745062>12.7x55 and 9x39I remember there was an STS-120UPU, a 1,219gr tungsten penetrator which tried to replace 12.7x55 VPS, at some point. There was also an ammo collectors' website that said Russians with OSV-96s and other 12.7x108 guns were reloading both 1,179 grain VPS and UPU into 12.7x108 as a supersonic, extremely armor-blind penetrator. They would be absolutely brutal vs ceramics if pushed to the 700m/s range. Similar to the 12.7x108 loads from Winchester-Olin sent to the Mujahadeen to punch through Hinds.>BR5+If it's true the new Granits are only doped Alumina, maybe ZTA, then get the mfg in contact with Shandong Yasai in China immediately, upgrade to TiB2-SiC. You'd save pounds.>.50 cal BABTThat's the one area where, per the L. Cannon paper, behind armor blunt trauma can be extremely serious. .50 cal plates need to be massively built up. Part of the reason why they aren't a regular thing is that they need to be about 1.5" thick or more, which won't fit in many normal PCs.>BR6Yep, it's like VPAM. Thing is though, both Atlas and I think FORT advertised BR6 plates at one point. The Atlas was a piece of shit, not sure about the FORT, and I'm not talking ACP-G or ACP-M.

Why the fuck does my 1911 keep pushing the rounds further back into the brass when I drop the slide? For reference I have a RIA 1911>inb4 get a better gun
>>64744328This >>64744362 + remove plastic speed buffer if you've added it, timing being fucky variable and dubious benefit.
one thing about 1911s is some have the feed ramp built into the barrel and others are built in the frame. I think one over the other allows reliable hollow point cycling but ball ammo usually fixes feed problems. "git bettur ghun" is solid advice because damn it theres ALOT of weird 1911s out there and most cannot handle hot ammo either to get around their hollow point deficiency. maybe try those bullets that encompass an almost round nose look with a little plastic, ballistic tip while still being a hollow point? picrel is video my smith 4566 cycling empty, weightless .45 brass reliably, by hand of course. good luck, fren
>>64744328 I'm notorious for buying the cheapest everything until it's fucking dead or does something cool. Did RIA make or sell a 9m/38 Super barrel that would drop in your gun? 50 years ago I bought spare barrel for Colt .38 Super and machined the back of the barrel out to .45 case diameter. 30-06 cases cut off behind the shoulder then necked down to 9mm.I had to buy a little piece of tool steel and make an extractor with a little longer claw because the '06 rim smaller diameter. What was cool about it was THE GUN WOULD FEED AND EJECT A MAG OF EMPTY CASES because of the shoulder on the case.Also the brass was a LOT thicker just ahead of the rim and IF you needed or wanted to "throat" the barrel for even better feeding the case wasn't going to blow out. I had gotten a 6' barrel but had no chrono back then. It would do it's impression of a .357 Mag spitting outany shape bullet you wanted. Hey just a thought - too much work but THAT would fix it :D
Because you are using retarded meme bullets invented as a copium for people too stupid to appreciate the inherent advantage of the big bore 45 and who are too gullible to believe that overpenetration is actually a thing.

Suicide vests and their general ineffectiveness. Is there a way to revitalize them or has drones changed the game? The typical tactic of taking a Down's Syndrome from a local home or some street rat and slapping a vest on them seems much less effective than zipping a quadcopter to the top of a soldier's head.And also a cool shower thought: A drone with latching capabilities, that can forcibly latch/screw onto a man's back (wounding him and making him call out to his comrades). Comrades approach to help, and boom. The drone has become a new form of suicide vest and you don't even have to use your own populace.
>>64742566yeah drones can't get through doors, draw everyone's attention at a checkpoint, and the kind of shitty quadcopters you're imagining can't carry nearly as much payload as a person.

>>64742566Is that blast shield going to save him when he cuts the wrong wire?
>>64744638Was this suicide vest safe?
>>64744638No. In the Middle East at least, suicide bombers tend towards being less religious and more nationalistic than average, and have more brothers than normal. The cost benefit analysis makes sense. We just don't understand it because our couches are too comfy.

Post your most interesting, cool or weird uniforms and kits. Pic related isBengal troops uniforms during colonial period.
>>64745171From left to right: Karabiner, Grenadier, Infantryman, Musketeer, Jäger, Artilleryman and finally Engineer. I speculate that the difference between the Musketeer and the Infantryman is about the date when the regiment in question was raised. In the Kingdom of Prussia all infantry regiments which were raised before 1740 were called Musketeers. Those regiments which were raised after 1740 were called Fusiliers. Perhaps it is something similar here.
>>64745162The warrior caste was an actual warrior caste back then, but they were a literal caste. Meaning they took all the same luxuries over the lesser castes that the Brits did over everyone. The issue here is that this led to those same guys hating the Anglos and being the point men on a lot of the rebellions because the Brits treated them as one homogenous group below them, when they didn't do that internally and consequently took tremendous offense to being treated that way. Frankly, the British retardation and arrogance caused them to lose India, and the other colonies. Think about an Empire that controlled half of the world but somehow couldn't make it solvent purely because they refused to understand you can't make a duck into a canary, and that no matter how many lines you draw on a map the people in those boxes will forever hate you for having done that. What they viewed as organization (peace) just caused more violence. Sure, you can't expect to be egalitarian and talk your way into perfect harmony, but they genuinely wanted no part in diplomacy due to their chauvinism. The "We have the Maxim Gun" motto is precisely what I mean. You can't pretend you're good at anything when your default position is just killing all the locals and being surprised they hate you, and then getting mad that they refuse to work with you because you killed them all.
>>64742346Weird American uniform
>>64745150A fairly fictional take on them, since that sort of Balkan clothing style with poofy pants or knives tucked into one's belt never reached that far north.Like the dudes here (historical, but 1600s), imagery of Janosik (folklore, but the dude dies in early 1700s), etc.The person who drew it would have had to encounter these people in a south European theatre, equipped with local stuff. Or been familiar with the local equipment and applied it back onto other parts of the Austrian Empire
>>64737614>Bengal troopsIronically they stopped recruiting Bengalis because they kept doing mutinies to overthrow the British. So the British banned them from joining and only recruited modern day Pakis and Western Indians who were happy to serve

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.
>>64739285As I've heard about it Track IR just let you turn your head around.To replace the mouse pointer, you need something that can follow your eyes finely, I've not heard of it doing that, but I may be mistaken.>>64739302Not the one you should ask that.I play M+KB by default so anytime I need to select target or change filter on the map I can do it quickly.>>64739344If the HOTAS has something as quick and precise as the mouse, I guess. But I've not heard of one.Plus, at some point aircraft flight computer pilot better than you can so the real problem is to transmit your intent quickly.
>>64744128It's pretty but given the weak targets you'd probably destroy more using rockets.
>>64744208You just use it poorly, it's ridiculously cost-efficient.I've soloed an entire island of anti-air with it before the new anti-air system.As the other anon said: - only one laser vehicle can shoot fast enough to intercept all the shells of one tarantula- you can shoot targets 16km away from behind a hill, keeping you safe from anti-air defense.The only impractical aspect is linked to the interface that don't make it easy to switch to the next selected target. If you could you'd one-shot each target.If the game is fair, ground artillery gun will eventually shoot indirect guided-flak-shells at anything detected by someone's radar.
>>64745690Reality is also fast-paced, most of the training is to have pilots be able to mechanically go through dozens of step in no time.Even without getting into drones, missiles swarms already require means to quickly distribute anti-air missiles between as many targets as possible without wasting missiles.Locking and lobbing bombs at ground targets without entering interdicted airspace before is also very tight.The only reason reality is not as fast as NO yet is because it's hard to get an interface as good as KBM inside a moving airplane.Joysticks in fighters don't even move (much) anymore, they mostly detect pressures, and to fly at extremely low altitude the flight-computers override some pilot action to do the flyby the pilot wish he could do.Helmet-displays have now moving toward letting the pilot select targets with their eyes.In short, don't blame mouse control scheme when reality seek to reach that kind of efficiency.
>>64745999>The only impractical aspect is linked to the interface that don't make it easy to switch to the next selected target.Huh? You target everything and deselect a target every time you fire
