>>64684831Yep. Drones and thermals used to cost literal tens to hundreds of thousands dorrars. Now they cost pittance and with vastly improved capabilities. I call all the drone deniers here as "Horse Cavalry Majors" for their obstinance.
>>64683848Multicam tropic is clearly the best here, closely followed by a-tacs ix
>>64684747Yes, since many drones in UA still have no thermal imaging and low resolution (or effective resolution due to transmission issues) cameras to keep costs down.

I planned out my life in high school so i could effectively retire in my mid 30s and do whatever i felt like for the rest of my life.>you don't have to insert random insults towards Russia to make me take you seriously. That isn't a act, as a civilization Russia is a mad dog and their abuse of the environment is a legitimate long term threat to the existence of humanity. Their pollution of the Eurasian landmass will be killing people for a length of time that exceeds the current span of human history, they must be stopped. As part of that the PRC cannot be allowed to take over that land, they will undoubtedly do the same but on a much larger scale do to their much greater population and level of resource exploitation. >I suspect that there is some interesting research to be done on the effects on work preferences between monarchical and democratic societies, vis a vis time off vs overtime pay. Although I suspect it's probably already implied by existing research into time preference.The book you are looking for is At Day's Close: Night in Times Past by Roger Ekirch.The DPRK would very much have the sleep and time division of a monarchy, i suspect any study would find that Monarchies and command economies that use quota systems have much in common in that regard. Immediately post war they would have had resembled pre electricity societies due to the level of destruction, given that artificial lighting has only become universally available relatively recently that influence will still be wide spread.>>64686707Comment too long.

I need a safe for muh gunz. It needs to be able to be wall stabilized or not a tipping hazard. Needs to be able to fix six rifles, and around a dozen pistols. Other room for bullshit like mags and ammo, and bullion would be ideal. It doesn't need to be high end, it's quite literally only being purchased so small children cannot access it with ease. I am not worried about burglars.

>>64686189They're my sister's in law, and they are both not fine with me watching my nephews at my house because GUNZ R BAD and fine. They're terrified of something insane happening, I get it. It's hysterical, but I can eat the money if it makes them chill.
>>64686171You would think so, but you'd also be surprised. There was an Asian techie in California who invested like ~200k in NODs, plates and various gucchi tier non compliant guns only to stuff all of them under his bed while renting a bedroom that didn't even have a lock so his crazy ass dysfunctional landlords could waltz in anytime.Sure enough they had a domestic, cops got called and found everything this guy had during a safety sweep even though he wasn't involved in the situation. The crazy meth smoking property owners kept being crazy mutually abusive shit stains with no consequences but their tenant got to be nogunz4lyf because he didn't spring for at least a $200 stack-on cabinet.Or, you know, maybe an apartment of his own where he wasn't sharing a roof and beholden to violent drug addicts. Crazy thing is that I knew a guy who was living exactly like that for like 5 years with his deranged schitzo cat lady landlord threatening to call the cops on him every other day until he wised the fuck up. He seriously could have bought a condominium, inflated California real estate prices and all with the money he spent on guns that were at risk of getting confiscated any second. Based but not smart.
>>64685849A sheet metal gun cabinet is the cheapest option and don't bother putting ammo and other shit in it, get a sturdy shelf and use ammo cans.
>>64685849Whatever safe you get… buy a wifi connected door sensor and put it inside the safe… then load the app on your phone. I did that on mine and mines in my garage. I’m the only one who should be opening my safe, so if that alarm goes off I’m calling the cops then opening the garage door remotely.. more realistically, if one of my kids gets bored enough to play “guess the password” I’ll know if they get it right. Change the battery every year preemptively… Cheap security for what it is.
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.
can you get this sig gun nowadays in this configuration? Are they still imported?
>>64686206Yes. They are imported from Switzerland as "handguns" in order to sidestep 922r, you have to buy the stocks separately. They are also fuckspensive.https://atlanticfirearms.com/sig-pe90-p-5-56-pistolhttps://atlanticfirearms.com/sig-pe90-p-pistol
>>64686217Oh nigga you can buy a car for $7k are swiss okay.Btw does anyone know the difference between those two?
>>64686230I don't know if it's entirely up to the Swiss, I suspect that the importer is only getting a small amount of these pistols and trying to make a huge profit on each one to make it worthwhile. Taking the stocks off and claiming they are pistols is also a bit of a stretch. That's after somebody in Switzerland would have had to rebuild them on new semi auto only receivers as well since I think the original ones would have been full auto with a blocked selector which wouldn't be legal to import.
Is a Burris full field 2.5-10 x42 illuminated scope a decently reasonable choice for a heavy recoiling rifle (above 30-40 ft-lbs) that isn’t expecting to be making shots out past about 350 yards?Working on a heavy wildcat, if it works out gonna make a second for my brother in Ohio. He’s nuts enough to deer hunt with it…. I don’t hunt though and don’t have a ton of rifle experience. For 200$ ish with their warranty it seems like it shouldn’t be half bad…. Since it’s going on a .50 caliber round the no questions warranty seems particularly good as far as features go. If this isn’t a good choice what would you recommend with the restrictions that it’s under 350$ max with tax, doesn’t have to worry about shooting farther than 400 yards… has to deal with stupid recoil, and has to be new/current production because I want to get 2 identical scopes and set them up on identical rifles, so what I test on mine is as close to valid as I can get it for his… so that rules out a good deal on a used scope unfortunately…https://www.burrisoptics.com/riflescopes/fullfield-25-10x42mmIf not familiar, deer hunting in Ohio is straight wall round only. He had a 500 mag encore he got a deer with that he had to sell due to tough times. This would fit somewhere between 500 mag and 500 bushwacker. So better range than a shotgun, and with enough energy transfer at range that anything outside of a zoo that you can shoot in Ohio is gonna drop.

>>64673763why she crawling
>>64673763>depict a girl with degenerative disease, crawling across her land, as a metaphor for struggle>also give her absolutely juiciest hip to waist ratio and use lighting to highlight and focus viewers eyes on her thick ass in your otherwise dim and drab paintingwhat did Andrew Wyeth mean by that
>The woman in the painting is Anna Christina Olson (May 3, 1893 – January 27, 1968). Anna had a degenerative muscular disorder, possibly polio or Charcot-Marie-Tooth disorder, which left her unable to walk.[1] She was firmly against using a wheelchair, so she would crawl everywhere. Wyeth was inspired to create the painting when he saw her crawling across a field while he was watching from a window in the house. He had a summer home in the area, and was on friendly terms with Olson, using her younger brother and her as the subjects of paintings from 1940 to 1968. Olson was the inspiration and subject of the painting, but she was not the primary model; Wyeth's wife Betsy posed as the torso of the painting. Olson was 55 at the time Wyeth created the work.I could've fix her bros...>>64683780The person who actually served as the model was reportedly Wyeth's wife. So he was really just painting dat ass he was PLAPping every night

The general for discussing homemade and amateur firearmsLast thread: >>/64549287/I often see homemade firearms being constructed very crudely out of things like pipes, sheet metal, dremeled slabs of mystery meat steel, and all other sorts of things, but why is it that I don't often see homemade guns made by people who know what they're doing?A significant amount of homemade firearms I see are done as a hobby, and making a firearm takes someone who knows how to work with metal, but you dont often see them actually milling guns with a machine, pic rel.Or maybe those types of guns tend to be so well made that they arent usually distinguished as homemade?
>>64680192It's meh
>>64674792There are about 3,000 of them in just one neighborhood. Do you really want to risk being thrown into a Japanese prison for people you'll probably never see again? After the murder of the former prime minister, anyone caught with a homemade firearm will be treated very badly by the police, and Japan is famous for its high rate of successful arrests.
>>64676062A revolver is much more complex and intensive to make than a semi auto
>>64683366I'm kind of bored of .22s, but I'd still like to make one if you've got the files>>64683471Even before that assassination they'd arrest people at the drop of a hat for firearms. I think they arrested this guy for a coilgun he made before they passed a law against it, no ex post facto protection in Japan.
I'm a gun control advocate and had a nightmare about a ruger 5 round magazine which could strip rounds from a bandolier for faster reloading. The issue was that someone might be able to just pull the bandolier through it while it was firing. And the more I though about this, the worse it got. The rifle action didn't drive the mag spring or bandolier, it was an unmodified rifle. The bandolier was just a bandolier, totally nondescript.The magazine only held 5 rounds. It's spring limited it to feeding 5 rounds. There was no indication on the packaging that the bandolier could be fed through it while it was still on the rifle. And then I thought, surely when assembled some combination would become a felony.But the mag on the rifle still only held 5 round and its spring prevented it feeding more than 5 without being reloaded. The bandolier in the mag, it was debatable whether the full capacity of the belt was *in* the mag, but it seemed that the spring on the mag prevented any more that 5 rounds being fed without it being externally reloaded, and pulling the bandolier continuously would just jam it on 5 rounds leaving it unable to feed even a single round. Fully assembled, surely it was a machine gun, or a belt fed machine gun, or a high capacity mag. Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

>>64686136I noticed Gilliam amended the specs on the Level IV + M995 9969 again. It is now 5.8lb and 1" for the drop protected version, $329 a plate, or 5.6lb and 0.8" for the no drop version - also $329. They are working on a 5.3lb version that will be more expensive. No idea if that's drop protected or not. Since that's within B4C IV weight I'd say no. If yes, then as a shield it'd be under 30lb.
I have decided that I would like to buy a chest rig. My budget is around $30 but I'm torn between two different choices.1. I have spare nylon strap from an old backpack so I was thinking about getting a USGI bandolier and turning it into a chest rig and keep the rest of my supplies in my backback.2. Getting this Temu chest rig with 6 pockets so I can keep things like a water bottle, rifle cleaning kit, medical kit, radio etc. within reach.
>>64686429You can get a FLC with a few pouches thrown in for $30 on ebay. It will be more durable than some temu junkpiece or some DIY janky rig. The durability and adjustability are both excellent for such a low price. The MOLLE future proofs it a little so you can buy more pouches as you go.>But a FLC is a vest and I want a chest rigYeah well you also only have $30 to spend.
>>64686429a TAPS should be within your budget, and you may find a second hand blackhawk rig on ebay (which is what your temu rig is copying) for something in that realm as well. Plus theres always chicoms, but theyre a little too basic IMO. If you'd asked 5 years ago then there were still cheapass p83 and dpm chest rigs floating around, but theyre both gone to the moon since then.

Is this enough for deterrence, or just rookie numbers for 800km border?https://www.taipeitimes.com/News/world/archives/2025/12/19/2003849170
>>64683593AP mines can be triggered by rabbits. Moose, bear, buffalo can trigger AT mines.>>64683662You put layers of them. As in several lines deep, so the depth of the minefield is for example 20 meters all along the border. With that you get about 4 AT mines (5m clearance between them.) Then sprinkle in AP mines and you get 10 mines/meter.

Was the Yugoslav military the 4th strongest military in the 80s-90s before it fell apart?
Stop equating Yugoslavia pre 92 with the bombing of Serbia in 99.
>>64686790serbs jerking off to yugoslavia is like russians jerking off to sovok, they'll commit self immolation if they are refused this ritual cope about their failed states
>>64686791Serbs see themselves as 'victims' of Yugoslavia, that was the whole spiel of Milosevic and the reason for sperging out.
>>64686795so do the russians, it doesn't mean anything except showcase their inherent jewish victim complex against their continued attempts to bring their imperial shithole back
>>64686805The entire equivalence between Yugoslavia and the USSR is false. Serbs were not the Russians of Yugoslavia. They comprised 1/3 of the population unlike in the USSR where the Russians were a majority.Russians don't see themsleves as the victims of the USSR-they see themselves as the victims of its dissolution losing their rightful empire hence the chimpout. The Serbs didn't fight ot keep Yugoslavia together, they paid lip service to it, they fought to keep territories with significant Serb populations a part of Serbia. Its why the JNA gave up after 10 days in Slovenia and Macedonia was able to seceed without any conflict at all while the war in Croatia and Bosnia dragged on for years.
Fucking things been in the fleet for nigh 500 years, and kept getting obliterated by Vanduul ships at Vega, and the Javelin destroyers weren't much better. I guess the chin mounted railgun and hanger are nice, but what does that really get you when Vanduul Maulers can shred them to pieces in an instant. Not to mention the hanger only carries 2 fighters.I guess it does fine as a patrol frigate, but I really don't get why the Navy hasn't replaced this decrepit geezer of a ship in the main battle fleets.

Maybe this time they'll get it right.

Why was the Longbow in use for literally 300 years when it simply could not penetrate armor? I have watched several experiments with modern reproductions and never once has it achieved penetration of plate armor. In this latest one they can't even pen at point-blank range a late medieval brigandine and cheap Sallet helmet which was worn by poorfag troops. Rich nobles wore high-end bespoke plate made from tempered steel with every surface calculated to deflect blows and it would have zero chance against that. The amount of training that went into using the bow doesn't seem worth the results.https://youtu.be/SFFgcTzCvMo
