>>64762322>Poland needs at least +100 F-35 or some other gen 5 fightersthis is not how NATO works. Each nation specializes in something it has a comparative advantage in. Estonia does cyber warfare, UK and France do nukes and expeditionary shit, other western european states do air forces. Poland, Turkey and Greece do massive ground forces. If Poland bought 100 F-35s it wouldn't be able to afford 400+ blinged up tanks, attack helicopters and rocket artilleryalso >some other 5th genlol, lmao
Starting with this piece of shit. Any gun that gets a cracked frame within 20,000 rounds is an irredeemable hunk of absolute dogshit. That isn’t even a high round count for 9mm. Glock runs circles around beretta.
>>64756609Chris Bartocci from SmallArmsSolultions has a video on the M9 and or Mr.GunsNGear does talking about this. Just look over the wedge and if you see any chipping or cracking it is time. But as another anon pointed out if you are really concerned get a new one as they are inexensive from Beretta. I would also suggest replacing the recoil spring on any used gun as well. I hope that helps anon.

Post some gun ideas you've had. Bonus for KelTec levels of madness.>modern SA/DA cartridge revolver w/swing-out cylinder but designed on Colt 1860 lines.
DA/SA revolving shotgun with a Nagant-style gas seal system. You don't even need to invent a proprietary shotgun shell because brass shells already exist and they could provide a decent seal once they lock up with the breach. Also, make a SA version that can be fanned since slam fire shotguns are so rare these days.
>>64758398what's the point of cycling by blank but firing via spring?>>64758514you could build that right now, just needs a stamp for the shotgun. i bet it's possible to 3dprint the nozzles for the projectiles and then fire them from regular shells
Black powder double action revolver with a swing out cylinder that can be converted to fire centerfire cartridges with third party conversion cylinders
>>64761984Anon, that specific one is Russian and I'm not going back there. If turks stark making a clone, then maybe. For now I'll stick with the judge. .410, .45 long colt or .45 apc(with a crown).Gyrojet part is a doozie, I wish someone worked on that.
>>64762067you mean......a Remington New Model Army? it's not a swing out cylinder gun for sure, but the cylinder comes out just as fast and Kirst makes conversion cylinders in .45LC. and they aren't firearms by law so you can mail order both the revolver and the conversion kit.

Realistically, what firearm would you need to take down a rampaging Na'vi from the Avatar films? Nine feet of solid muscle and bone (reinforced with natural carbon fibre), extremely fast-moving and agile, fighting on their own turf with very short engagement distances? There's no way 5.56 mm would cut it, would 7.62mm be enough?
>>64761947>The RDA hired Jake because they wanted a return on their investment, not because they want to save the earthTheir motivation is not humanitarian, but humanity still needs it, and it's in short supply, and thus it is valuable.>No it isn't. Selfridge directly says that the ONLY reason they are even there is unobtainium.Yes. That is my point, if you've been keeping up. With how important and rare unobtanium is, why the fuck else would they still be there?>If it's so important for their interstellar travel then how come they managed to get to pandora in the first place?I don't believe it's ever elaborated on, but I'd assume they get there the slow, conventional way the first time around, using up what are presumably now very limited fuel resources - or there were already some small deposits of it that they extracted either in Sol or in other systems. I'd guess there are some other lesser deposits elsewhere on Pandora as well that they've mined since natural resources tend to not just appear in one place exclusively.>You suggested manual mining with pickaxes, which is a labour and manpower intensive process that the RDA cannot afford.They're a multi-billion-dollar megacorp that has all of Terra under their thumb, of course they can afford it. Duh.
>>64761898>He even shouts mask on before he kicks open the door to warn everyone.He also did it earlier while riding in the sealed cockpit of a gunship without warning, much to the annoyance of the pilot (forcing her to use supplemental oxygen).

(+a MHR radar)>could this ammo be used with the AH-64s? Israelis have recently used them as drone hunters.

>>64758886Not when they start using quantum fiber
>>64758875>>64758886They also need a powered unspooler since the fiber will break if it gets tugged, and a transceiver at each end capable of transmitting over many kilometers without a repeater. The transceiver alone costs more than $200-300.
>>64758886Really, exactly how much bigger? how does that effect the price of the drone? I'll give you a hint, they don't need to be much bigger and they're actually cheaper because economy of scale is currently the biggest factor in the diy drone building market as opposed to the pennies in material cost difference. You'd know this if you actually price checked components instead of just flapping your gums>>64762330>Uhhh uhhh I'll just make up some shit Many such cases

>>64760555Yes but that's not necessarily a problem if you have the infrastructure to refine it, problem is that they don't. Also heavy oil, otherwise known as bunker fuel, is a super common fuel source for bulk freighters so it's not like it's completely worthless
Any anons here ever been to ShootSmart? Its pretty much the only range I hear about in DFW, but they seem extremely expensive: Their prices put me off but their also the closest range to my neighborhood so their convenient...Would you say if I shoot at the minimum 2-3 times a month that a membership would be worth it? How much money would I realistically save? If you get their most expensive membership you get to shoot at the lanes for free and get a free FFL, which is tempting but I'm not sure if its worth it bros...their normal prices are as follows>Public Shooting Lane: $17>Private Shooting Lane: $32>FFL: $45And that's not even counting everything else. Like I've seen Holosun Sights easily going for $400+ there. I think that they upcharge everything to get you to buy a membership, which is pretty scummy, but I am tempted I'm ngl.
>>64760026I shot FMJ there though not the 100 yard
just go to texas defensive shooting academy (tdsa) down in ferris. outdoors with bays. its where colion noir goes if you can recognize it. been going for years and its super sweet if you can stomach the drive. i believe it to be worth it, but to each their own. never taken someone who didnt think it was worth it
>>64757503>have range membership>haven't gone in a while at least I paid for a lifetime membership but I really need to go
>>64759937>>64760026>>64760068It was literally because of a law suit in Dallas county. Some dude was shooting carelessly in some woods not far from a gun range, and someone got hurt. They tried to pin it on the gun range, saying that it was a ricochet from a FMJ round. Case got settled, but the insurance company (the same one for all of the gun ranges here) told the ranges no more FMJ.You can literally just put FMJ rounds inside SP boxes. I just go to local shooting spots right outside the metroplex that nobody will bother you in.PS Fuck Dallas
>>64757503All ranges in DFW are aids, rangeusa is unironically the best because while still having gay rules they have a cheap membership that gets you free range time on weekdays. They're also less gay about the rules if you're a member. Go twice a month or more and it pays for itself
If you're the dictator of a shithole how do you prevent the hollowing out/paper tigerization of your military over time? All of these had strong capable militaries until one day they didn't and got their cheeks busted and wig split
>>64750477Ally with western countries and use their gibs to professionalize and improve your military. The alternative is becoming a poor shithole and relying on Chinese and Russian spare parts.
>>64750591USSR didn't have a functioning economy.
>>64750477>If you're the dictator of a shithole how do you prevent the hollowing out/paper tigerization of your military over time?You don't.

There's no real need to rehash why mechs don't work but what is the ideal jungle support vehicle then?
Ground vehicles are losing relevance and are going to keep losing relevance as time goes on and drones become ever more advanced. See >>64755286 - if you come across something in the jungle that infantry can't handle by themselves, then drone swarms or aerial vehicles (themselves also drones) will take over.
>>64754746literally just this >>64755310remove the jungle = remove the problemjungles are dogshit to traverse even for infantry, let alone anything weighing over a ton that can't (relatively) easily snake between treessame reason you don't bring land vehicles to mountains that don't have very sturdy and clear paths going through themif you intend on crossing the jungle by land you gotta remove the jungle (or stop being retarded and go over it)>>64760694here we go again>>64760755until infantry itself becomes obsolete it's going to need ground support no matter how vulnerable>something something flag planted something something not your territory
>>64760277yeah it's a huge lazy downgrade aesthetically, you could tell me right was from ghost recon or the division or whatever near-future game you want and aside from the patches it would 100% look it. it's bad even if you're not comparing it to beck's work
>>64754949>The only feasible option for armored vehicles in such an environment, is something with legs.This would rather raise the question as to whether an armored vehicle is worth it there.'cause let's be fair here : if you have to go there with troops, you are either- an insurgent having to use the jungle as a shield against enemy conventional forces whose firepower, numbers and logistics you cannot hope to match, let alone survive.- said conventional forces and really have to flush out insurgents... which armor ain't really helping you do by much.
>>64761570You forgot scenario 3, which is a conventional military fighting a conventional military, like during >World War I>World War II>First Indochina War>Vietnam War>Sino-Vietnamese War>Cambodian-Vietnamese War>Spanish-American War>Rhodesian Bush War>First and Second Congo Wars>First and Second Sino-Japanese Wars>Chinese Civil WarAnd others
They're considered to be some superweapon that could change the tide of a war. But let's take the current war in Ukraine, if Russia were to deploy tactical nukes against military targets, could It realistically enable a proper breakthrough in any of the fronts?
>>64761317A shame allies didn't convince french commies to do an uprising to just wait until nazis killed them all, much of our current social degeneracy could have been avoided by letting them do the dirty work.
>>64759232Tactical nukes are useless, because MIRVs + decoys are country-ending.
>>64761608The problem is the south koreans also consider the long term. If Kim gets deposed and NK is either unified with SK or left to do it's own thing, what do you do with a backwater nation who's population is like 90% brainwashed, malnourished serfs? It's an enormous fiscal undertaking that would hobble South Korea's economy. Not to mention the refugee crisis that China, Japan and other neighboring countries really don't want to do with.
Considering the SBU operations we've seen recently, if Russia went full scorched earth like that, we would likely see a dirty bomb on moscow or St Pitsburg at the very least as response.

You have a moderately sized military force and you have to deal with several hundred of these things. Here’s what you gotta remember about them:>Nearly immortal, body can be damaged but the only thing that can kill them is fire>sever a limb and it will keep coming after you >burning them isn’t advised because the gasses inside will reanimate any corpses around them, including animals >They do feel pain, from injury and their rotting bodies>eating brains relieves said pain>they’re very smart, able to fake calls for backup and set up ambushes>speed depends on the state of decay, fresher corpses run like a human>nuking them would kill them, but it would spread the trioxin gas further and make a bigger outbreak in the endWell, /k/? You gotta get creative with this one.
>>64761458>That Land Before Time YTP quoteLegitimately the most out of pocket deep cut reference I've ever seen.
>>64760790He wasn't exposed to the chemical.
>>64758075Suicide is one of my favorite characters in any movie.The 180 flip from crust punk to a person who cares deeply about how others think about him and even shows restraint to follow through with truly taboo event, like when Trash tries to seduce him, is amazing.
>>64758464Thats why resident evil and 28 days later struck a chord with me, the zombies are basically mutants that wont last more than a week and cant really feel pain well. So maybe a knife or 9mm fmj wont take one down instantly but a 12ga to the chest probably will
>>64761992Suicide is excellent, truly one of my most favorite movie characters. (Pic related is still a work in progress, but he belongs there).I love how he manages to seamlessly pull off coming across as a ridiculous and pretentious asshole, who you'll laugh at because look at how he dresses and behaves, BUT, at the same time that punk leather outfit is actually pretty cool, and he kinda is a bit badass.Like, he died suddenly and all, but he was first in line rushing to help his friend, he didn't hesitate.Shame that Mark Venturini died pretty young, he had potential left as an actor.
Why wouldn't something like pic related work fine as a "do everything" gun for a person living in the densely forested hills of Appalachia, where the power and ballistic advantage of a rifle simply isn't necessary?>plinking will be good fun with the naturally subsonic .45>definitely suitable for home defense>easy enough to fit in a backpack, or take the can off and carry it on your person>get some .45 Super for killing deer or hogs, or mess around with round ball loadings for taking small game or for pest controlYes, it's true that rifles can be had for dirt cheap these days. And it's also true that there is no real reason to limit yourself to just one gun, especially a handgun. But in an autistic min-max fantasy where you literally can only own one gun and it has to be able to be carried 24/7/365, does a suppressed .45 automatic make sense? The only real downside I see here is that this is not the best option for summertime concealed carry in hot climates.
>>64759781>tiny and pathetically weakThat's every handgun cartridge, though
>>6475978122 hornet is a great revolver round. I personally prefer 22 rem jet though. The 53 is really versatile.>>64760021>could have been killed with a .22 LR or .22 Mag.Absolutely. Now imagine having a gun that could be both in one gun yet with drastically better projectiles. Hence the Five-seveN. Worth pointing out that what wasn't a legal cartridge for that WMA was .357, 9mm, or any of the big bore revolver rounds. Also note he wasn't attacked by bears but if he would have been a 5.7 would've been the only option that wouldn't have resulted in a felony trespassing charge. I guess I can concede that a 9mm/big bore revolver would definitely be more effective at stopping bear attacks in this location since you'll never be able to access the property with one lmao.
