>bergman bayards with accessory rails and stendos, ideally in a wide spectrum of calibers, potentially including intermediate rifle rounds>had a dream about a "5.56x19mm" pistol that could zip soft armor and only needed a barrel swap to use in my hi power>new production meatballs that can, you guessed it, chamber intermediate rifle cartridges
>>64757523The Rossi LWC, but it's a top-break revolver with a 20" barrel and a blast shield, chambered in 45-70.
Why aren't there more guns that have a secondary barrel for firing a more powerful caliber if the situation changes suddenly? The only example I can think of is the LeMat Revolver. It would throw the caliber wars for a loop and make for a fun range toy.https://www.youtube.com/shorts/c1ySenl_OQo

>>64749304Kek. The Frogs were pushing really hard for our Malaysian Airforce to buy their Rafales but our current administration is leery of taking their kickbacks due to recent scrutiny on other projects. We ended up buying K-poplanes.
>>64749304>Australia's 70 F-35As so stealthy that Indoanon doesn't even realise they're there and make the RAAF the unquestionable dominant regional air power even without US backing
>>64760725For the new MRCA procurement plan, Malaysia may get SU-57 fighter jets from Russia and KF-21 from South Korea or even KAAN from Turkey because they have already offered it to Malaysia. Russia has already offered the SU57 package along with the S400 to Malaysia. The US gives too many conditions and no freedom to repair or upgrade the aircraft made in the United States. Most recently, Malaysia has held discussions with the Russian authorities to obtain the Mig-35 as well as the 5th generation Sukhoi Su-57 aircraft because Russia guarantees technology exchange and aircraft upgrades in the future.Eventhough the US bribing Malaysia not to join BRICS with sale of F-35, it wont be easy for them if the US Congress keep trying to meddle in and trying to approve it only with terms. Although both countries are friends, Malaysia is not that close with US, unlike Singapore , which the US gave much favour too. Also, Putrajaya (Malaysia) did not recognized Israel and dont have any Diplomatic relationship with Tel Aviv. Unlike Singapore which is the strongest supporters of Israel's war against the Palestinian people. So, you can do the math why Malaysian prefer to get 2nd hand F-18 from Kuwait as a temporary "stop-gap measure" only, as a temporary filling in the procurement of fifth or sixth generation fighter jets that will begin in the 14th Malaysia Plan (RM14 & RM15) 2030-2040.
Recently there has been a trend of Shaheds armed with various anti-aircraft missiles, both MANPADS and R-60s. Is there any real merit to this? I can assume that these are presumably supposed to cooperate with the drones we've seen carrying rear-facing cameras, with the missile Shadhed trailing the spotting one, but this seems like a lot of investment to put into a rather dubious shootdown chance.
>>64760916Didn't the ukies down a heli with a USV armed with a AA missile? It's kind of a similar idea, adds some complication to the task of shooting them down.
>>64760968>Didn't the ukies down a heli with a USV armed with a AA missile?not that I know of. I know they used AA missiles from a drone boat in anger, but iirc results were poor and I haven't seen any hits.
>>64760948Did >>64760775 not just say that it hallucinated an air launched Shasneed? Gen AI is for nitwits.
>>64761024if you're literally a retard (like you) then yesif you're capable of actually comprehending what model returns and question it about that then it's a valuable tool
>>64760968>Didn't the ukies down a heli with a USV armed with a AA missile?At least half a dozen of them, yeah. And potentially one or two planes. There was a ton of whining in Telegram channels since some of the shot down pilots weren't recovered because nobody bothered to send a recovery crew in a timely manner.Ruslims had to create special rules where helicopters should approach the USVs from the back as to not get shot down kek.

>>64759214Theres literally nothibg wrong with the M249, you retards either don't load it right which turns it into a bolt action, or you don't fucking clean it which takes 5 minutes and should be done every couple hundred rounds. Especially after popping blanks.The Ares and Lima have nowhere near the same ability to sustain the same volume of fire, let alone a similar lifetime volume of fire. They're civilian "just as good" belt feds.

>>64760814Believe it or not? He's probably looking out for you. But if you want to push it, if meps didn't pick up on it, it's not his place to say. Find another recruiter if you truly want this. You may be beyond the point of being able to mask it though. Drills will notice. Did you say the words "yes I have an autism diagnosis" or any derivative of this? This complicates things greatly if you did.
>>64760814Have you been actually diagnosed by some kind of medical professional? How intensely autistic are you that recruiters are just cold diagnosing you? Be honest.
>>64760675No good answer. Marines do vague contracts that could stick you into a bunch of things. I've been told aviation is surprisingly decent in the marines though. Doubt it's better than say, the 160th though. At least you know what airframe you'll work on in the Army. Do not join the Marines unless it's during a war. Don't do it.
>>64760868>Find another recruiter if you truly want thisI dont think I need another recruiter as I am already enlisted into the DEPHe also isnt standing in my way and he didnt say anything to me directly and he generally seems pretty niceIts just allegedly he said those things to another applicant and the other applicants told me about itI am not upset with him over saying or thinking anything it just makes me self conscious and worried about being "found out" and removed from basicI have not said anything about it to him or anyone and I shrugged it off and laughed and acted like I wasnt bothered when the other applicant told me this>>64760898I was diagnosed when I was in elementary school but my parents fought the school to keep me from being put in therapy and on Ritalin or Adderall or etcI dont really know "how autistic" I am as its hard to judge from my own shoesI can recognize that habits I have and things I like align with people I see online that would be made fun of for being "autistic" or "weird"Comment too long.

Turns out I was wrong. idk where I read that Teddy liked peep sights, I know the one letter is about him buying a .22 with peep sights https://www.theodorerooseveltcenter.org/digital-library/o293878/it must have been for the Smithsonian African tripI'll post the other version of the letter in the next post but, it turns out he always used what are basically express sights with a u notch in the bottom with a ramped front bead. https://www.loc.gov/resource/mss38299.mss38299-363_0001_0271/?sp=106&r=0.447,0.157,0.595,0.233,0in his autobiography he specifically mentions drawing a bead on things, including an injun. he also straight up couldn't shoot for shit. He even admits he was a piss poor long range shot due to his shit eyes. eyes so she he couldn't get peeps to work. Peeps must still be the most accurate because every shooting competition that allows peeps but doesn't allow a scope has everyone using peeps over open sights. I wonder if he would use a red dot today or if his eyes were so shit he's seethe about the starburst
Here's the letter with the drawing along with a video of the rifle that the letter was abouthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSt9GmrVdSE

>>64759866Fuck yamudda
burger Anons, you know how annoying as FUCK it is to ship handguns, due to how you have to drop it off at a UPS distribution center since USPS won't take em because of some weird ancient reg?Well, not anymore!https://www.justice.gov/olc/media/1423701/dl>I hope this isn't viewed as political, I just wanted to share the news.
I’ve got a stupid question.The ban on shipping firearms to your front door is due to guns requiring a background check at an FFL, correct? More specifically the idea that it makes it impossible to determine that the person that’s actually receiving it is not a prohibited person.The CMP can ship long guns to you.Capitol Armory can ship suppressors to you.Manufacture/gunsmiths can ship to you.So logically, shouldn’t you be able to order a gun and have it delivered to you as long as you fill out a digital 4473?
So, looking at it cynically. Is this just a move so the current administration can say they're expanding gun rights without actually doing anything significant?
>>64760941gun laws never make sense, anon. don't try and find logic.e.g. the entire SBR portion of the NFA is nonsense because pistols were supposed to be NFA items, originally. We've been so used to it we fail to see the stupidity sometimes
>>64760947Maybe, probably. It's like the lowest hanging fruit in existence but I'm not going to complain about something good.
>>64760986no, the lowest hanging fruit would be to eliminate the import engraving requirement for surplus.so many boomers would CUM at the idea of having surplus shit without nasty import marks (me too somewhat desu)

You're tasked with building a kit to help Iranian resistance against the Ayatollah regime, the kits you build will be airdropped into Iranian territory in large dufflebags and then picked up by chosen operatives. You have $3k per kit to try to arm an light resistance guerrilla fighter, you can only source items from the US civilian market. At minimum you should provide a rifle, a pistol, body armor, essential accessories and ammunition for both, as well as any survival or tactical implement you see necessary.What kind of stuff do you pick?
