>>64752083I suppose I have forgotton the Lap and Sami caribou herds. The musknox are gone. The Siagas are near extinct. The mouflon are threatened, but also reintroduced or imported as exogenous.
>>64751317are those the ones that they recalled because they blow up and they like glued the barrel in or something when the main "upgrade" from the old discontinued model was that they had quick swap barrels?

Does he deserve his shit reputation for the Battles of the Isonzo? After all what else could he realistically have done? He had a very narrow mountainous front with no room for any sweeping manoeuvres or flanking. And he won most of the battles.

>>64748418To be fair shitting the bed at Caporetto was magnitude bigger than any small victories he had accumulated beforehand.
>>64741338just to give you an idea what mindset he and most of the italian generals had:when the war started northern slovenia was battlefield.Austrians evacuated the slovenes on their side of the frontline, build new town quarters for them in nearby safe locations. The imperial guards even helped em catch chickens and other livestock when evacuating.The italians on the other hand rounded the (non austrian, non german speaking) slovenes up, deported them to concentration camps in Ligiuria where half of them died. these were just farmers who had no clue what was going on.same post war, when the slavic and german soldiers of austria retreated from italy. the italians made em give up their weapons and promised them a safe return. a false promise, they were stripped, beaten, paraded thru towns and a quarter of a million men died in italian concentration camps afterwards.many italians didnt want to die for the imperialistic dreams of some politicians in rome. after the enormous losses, whole units deserted in such numbers that the italian generals used decimation to keep discipline and executed every tenth man.bravo, cadorna (and for repeating a little verdun fuckup at least 10 times).

>try estate sales, bro>you'll find absolute bargainsHorseshit. I spent all morning and everything was grossly overpriced
>>64750432Dang that's the one I actually wanted (in da/sa though) but got this as a cope because it was like 400 at my lgs
>>64751491I have a weird gun in my collection that I sure as shit would never fire again. It's basically a very old Smith j frame in 38special but it is stupid lightweight. It feels like a toy. It literally weighs as much as a 43C. The cylinder is not magnetic and it was made well before scandium and titanium cylinders were a thing. I can only assume that it is a grenade with an aluminum cylinder. I've shot it before and it kicked like a motherfucker with standard pressure low recoil hydrashoks.
>>64751440The LTT NP3 kit can go below 6 pounds for DA. My LTT’d PX4 with a weak hammer spring was 4.5 pounds DA but occasional light strikes I couldn’t tell if it was the ammo or the gun at the time (it was the gun).
There's a 45 star megastar for 400 bones on gunsinternational. It's probably already been bought but thought I'd mention it here.

The sharpest thread on /k/.Underrated Knives Edition
Should I get a mushroom knife or spoon knife? I don't forage mushrooms or carve spoons, but that is only because I don't have a mushroom knife or spoon carving knife. Do I really need these?
>>64751872Ah a new fetish pic! Kys.
>>64751921Have you considered a 3.2?
>>64752048I really don't want to go overboard with excessive consumption. Socrates guides us>moderation in all thingsHe was a great philosopher from history.
>>64751939imo mushroom knives are kinda pointless, they're just a small blade with a little brush. when I go picking mushrooms i take my Spyderco Byrd CaraCara2.they're soft little things, any knife will do. and if you find something like a big Sparassis crispa ("Cauliflower Mushroom", pic related) as I have before, you're gonna need plenty of blade length to even reach under there.a curved spoon carving knife makes sense if you make use of it, it at least offers a function a normal straight blade doesn't have.

>>64749147ive been meaning to get a mauser gewehr and a mosin nagant for a while now, ill probably get em someday though
>>64750182>>64750199>>64750285>>64750374Thanks lads, so around $500-$600 should net me a nice No4 Lee-Enfield then. Are they only numbered on the receiver, bolt, and stock or are there any other parts that they numbered as well?
>>64748853Kino>>64749147My non-unobtanium pick would be a genuine 1897 trench shotgun.
>>64749147Ive said it before but my grail would be an RSC 1917. But i'd settle for a nice Gew98

Did the army corps really help straighten out your life?
>>64751020>armed services>straight Lol. Lmao even.

>>64751088>free penYou did good. I stole one from a bank and went to the pen.
It's really what you make of it. I found a purpose even if it's retarded most of the time. At 26, I was a NEET and really had no path forward. Parents were enablers but also at the same time, grew tired of me sitting around at home. Wouldn't say I was suicidal, but I was definitely a sad person before. I now do something instead of fantasizing of doing something. Recruiters will sell you a bad bill of goods if you're not careful though. Get whatever you want to do in your contract.
>>64752401Also don't go high speed beyond airborne (only if you want it). I know this is a hot take but cancer rates are absurdly high, as are injuries later in life. Once you get out and health issues crop up years down the line, your discharge papers will say nothing of it, and the VA will tell you to get fucked. It's so not worth it. This is a job program unless a war kicks off. Make it easy on yourself. Knowing how to blow shit up with C4 won't do you any good after the fact. Get a good duty station to appreciate nature and shit. TS Clearance and using your tuition assistance to get a degree while in will set you up for easy mode government jobs once out.
Scopes and reddots are for boomers with glaucoma.
>>64746367How is the industry going to sell shit if people are happy with what they have?
>>64745210I grew up shooting with nothing but irons, but red dots are definitely better, not even sure what kind of argument you’re trying to make, you just hold the gun up and put the red dot on the target and it hits the target, it’s really quite amazing, don’t even have to get your eye lined up before taking the shot, not to mention the fact I can passive aim with duals on when using a decent dot like a t2 or exps3 both of which I own (I prefer the t2, set and forget, lighter, more durable, no delamination, better battery life, don’t have to manually turn it on or off)
>>64748488Anyone with a stream light on their rifle doesn’t have money, one of the shittiest cheapest lights you can get, Chinese trash

>>64749036This has to do with the Jeets to buy Miggers 29 instead. Not to mention, India had to face F-16 from 2 fronts, and back then the Indian market just had opened for the US so, they had to keep jeet requests.

How are they still in business? shotgun sales are in the shitter and even if they do sell someone a shotgun, how many shotguns do people buy in their life time?>but they sell .22sare you really going to buy a mossberg .22 over a 10/22?>the patriotare you going to buy a mossberg patriot over a ruger or savage at basically the same price point?>handgunsthey sell handguns? have you ever seen someone with a mossberg handgun?Henry's another one. Are there really that many people buying lever actions and single shot break actions? It's even worse than car companies because guns are cheaper than cars and .22s and hunting guns last basically forever
They make good, reliable stuff. For dirt cheap.Pumps are practically ban-proof.New people get into shooting hobbies all the time, but oldfags won't sell their shit.Ergo, Mossberg's stuff keeps selling.

>>64752378https://www.americanprogress.org/article/gun-industry-america/no American company replaced remingshit in the shotgun market because most gun sales are handguns, ARs and .22s

I was reading about this guy and he had over 350+ kills. Why does this make me jealous?
>>64751103>t. Hartmann
>>64751103>muh slavsHe was talking about soviets not slavs though. Slavs (Poles and Czechs) absolutely raped germans in the battle of Britain for example
>>64752226>You dont see the Enemy go down most of the time, people count Kills that infact likely survivedIt really doesn't matter whether the other guy survived, it's an air-to-air "kill" in the sense that you engaged a hostile aircraft and destroyed it, presumably through superior skill but possibly though better mission planning or superior equipment. It'd be disingenuous to arbitrarily not count an air-to-air kill just because the actual pilot didn't die, since in olden days that was largely down to luck, and in modern times, advanced ejection systems, more robust airframes, and the particular kill method of air-to-air missiles have coalesced to make air combat more survivable than ever for any reasonably up-to-date air force fielding such advancements, which at this point is most since they're all about as old now as airplanes themselves were in the 40s.

Decided to buy an AUG. I want an A3M2. Is it feasible to buy parts one at a time like an AR? Receiver, stock, barrel and whatever else
>>64750344>Wtf is this?Pfeifer Waffen SR2 (that particular one is something an anon owns), a pretty neat precision single shot bullpup. 26" barrel in a 27.8" oal, action in insanely compact. Weighs around 6 lbs for the carbon version and 7.2 for the wood one. Can have it chambered in basically anything.>>the backwards triggerThat's not the trigger that's a cocking piece, a very interesting setup. Trigger is the button, and from what anons and others have said it's very crisp and extremely adjustable, can choose from 11oz (300gr) to 3 lbs 5oz (1500gr). It's really meant as a stalking hunting gun and can carry safely in the chamber thanks to the cocking requirement before firing.Since it's a niche custom euro luxury thing you probably won't be surprised it's pricey but not like, insane either. I think it starts around $3500, so high end but not into boutique ultra rich fag doublegun 5-6 figure levels.
