Any vasoconstrictive drops—naphazoline or xylometazoline—used for a congested runny nose and for nosebleeds.

Ipratropium bromide + fenoterol inhaler for shortness of breath and wheezing; can be used as adjunctive therapy in bronchitis and pneumonia; it dilates the bronchi.

Cough lozenges (labeled “cough tablets”), used for dry cough without sputum.

Nitroglycerin spray (2 sprays) for high blood pressure accompanied by constricting chest pain. Use extremely carefully; many side effects: can sharply lower BP, cause fainting, and severe headache. If unsure, do not use.

Tolperisone tablets for back pain, used with analgesics (ketorolac, ibuprofen, nimesulide, diclofenac, meloxicam, etoricoxib).

Elastic bandage.

Paracetamol‑based cold/flu powders (e.g., paracetamol + phenylephrine + antihistamine). A few packets.

Survivor nigger here, don't know how else to call it, UNICEF, Red cross, combat tour, tourist.

There's a separation between IFAK, which is for infantry who have to shelter in place, so it's got more gauze and tourniquet then usual, it's for people medics can't get to immediately.

Theirs a field kit, which is more like a general medical kit, so has things like eye drops, antibiotics, it's the aggregate kit to prevent someone in the field actually needing to go to a field hospital.

There is a surgical kit, which comes in large, medium, small, but the commonality is that it's for supplying to someone else, not yourself. It wouldn't be strange to be sewing up someone else and use the wounded person's IFAK on yourself because you didn't have one.

If you aren't trained, IFAK, if you're trained but have to self-op, field kit. If you're a group medic, surgery kit.
So if you're IFAK, spray on bandage because it can cover wide area injury, gauze patches, small saline, multi-tool (which normally is in you bags), fine tweezers, betadine, glue on stitches

Medicine is even more personal, I'm not a MD. ask one.

iirc it was a training setup, with the targets a few clicks down that same clearing. this is why american CAS is trained to strike perpendicular to friendlies rather than parallel with them, to avoid misidentifying your troops as the targets.

It really depends. We're kinda behind on squad level drone integration, so if we get involved in a long term war where the enemy has the ability to domestically produce cheap disposable drones to taxi large munitions with minimal risk, we might get into a vietnam tier folly.

If it's just waltzing into a decrepit country like Iraq was in 2003, probably pretty good.

Small planes like that have hardly any load capacity and ramming seems very hard to do. I envision some cameras with computer system to track targets and fly the plane precisely.

When weight is limited and the system expendable, it is better to use rockets rather than gun-type weapons, unless a large number of consecutive shots is required.

>Nigeria basically should have been originally divided into two separate countries: one for the Christian and generally more developed coastal regions, and one for the inland Muslims with more historical ties to the Sahara and surrounding Muslim nations.
Only a matter of time before some retards brought this up.

1/ No real conflict in Nigeria is along northern vs southern lines, so how is this remotely even relevant??

2/ The dominant ethnicity in the south are Yoruba, and 40% of them are Muslim and 50% are Christian. The largest city Lagos is located in Yoruba territory.

3/ The coastal regions are rich globally because of maritime trade and ease of travel, so obviously it's the same in modern Nigeria. However, the coastal south of Nigeria and West Africa was historically more primitive and backward. That's why the majority of them were able to be easily forced into Christianity.

Since the north was actually more capable and politically self-reliant in comparison, the British had to cooperate with its leaders. You can't just create imaginary borders to box the north in.

4/ If Northern Nigeria were landlocked, it's a direct incentive to invade and annex or settle the south. So there would be a much bigger conflict than the various crises that Nigeria is already in. More realistically, the borders would have never been accepted and enforced to begin with.

why do commies generally hold their support hand/offhand closer to the mag well than muh elite operator youtube shooters? are AKs front heavy or is it a lack of training?
13 replies and 3 images omitted. Click here to view.
>>
the gun is heavy, you hold it as close to the center of mass as you can as a default.
Then the further your arm is out, the harder it is to rotate, to swing the barrel at a different target,for that reason it's very common to see guys just grabbing the mag as if it was a fore-grip. It has a positive lock unlike an AR, you shouldn't do it but it's less of an issue. with a VSS pattern you actually can, and many 56 AKs have an extende magwell specifically to that ends.

another issue is that russians cock their rifle with the dominant hand, which goes way back to arctic warfare and use of rifles when wearing mittens. having your left hand full gloved, your right hand half gloved and in your coat.

Try it with your AR, if you have to reach around with your dominant hand to cock it, where do you dinf your non dominant hand? well you're bracing the whole rifle with only one hand and not against your chest, so again, off hand is just gripping that magwell even if your hand slides back over it.

AKs heat up quickly to the point that if you magdump a few mags it's very uncomfortable

rude comment, not called for.
>>64476783
theoretically you shouldn't grip the magazine because the interface between the magazine lips and the gun is actually quiet sensitive, if you push the magazine around the rifle may not feed reliably.

The reason for the handguard possition is 1,2,3,4,5 point supported shooting. hitting what you aim at is very important, so you take as many contact points as you possibly can. So if you can ram the side of the gun up against the corner of a wall, you totally do that, it's like a free tripod. but you can't allow anything to interfere with the action of the rifle, so the contact point is further down the barrel.

imagine you are shooting from a window, you want to ram than bitch onto the window sill for that extra point of contact. but you still need to move the rifle so how far forwards do you want to rest it? too far forwards and you can't rotate, too far back and you can't change magazine. you use the posstion in pic relate because you can still drop the bottom of your hand onto a surface to stabilize yourself.

A 5 point shoot for reference, is shoulder, off hand trigger/grip, forward elbow, foward hand, brace point. It's how you shoot when lying on your back, splayed around something like a palm tree. you're basically in full over with that bitch straight angled at a target. it's a plinking possition
>>
>>64477033
yea the guard is surprisingly thin, despite being wood. but its not often that you magdump someone and in CQB burning your hand isn't even a thought. it's almost a bag habit guys pick up in basic when they're sharing a rifle. GROM, Wagner don't do it, they all hold their guns like a neanderthal would.

Not to make this a /pol/ thread I just want sound advice from fellow /k/ anons, should I buy a third AR?

Youngkins vetoing of assault weapon bans in Virginia is over since its a sure shot that Spanberger is going to win and she has been very vocal about getting a ban passed.

I wanted to wait to get a third one (going the warlord route of getting 5 max to pass out to unarmed buddies in case of mass unrest) but Spanberger is going to throw a wrench in that plan with the high likelihood of Virginia getting cucked like Washington did.

So should I just wait like I wanted and buy out of state when I am ready? Or be a consoomer retard and give PSA $500 now for a spare rifle that will live in a safe and occasionally shot by buddies

The reason I don't is because we don't have dead-hand sorts of systems anymore, the numbers of weapons, nor the clearly delineated sides with serious people on each, many/most of whom at least somewhat were genuinely patriotic and somewhat having a few core shared values/ideals. The fog of war was also a lot thicker, it's hard to overstate how massively more sophisticated sensors and networks are now and how many of them there are. And that trend is only accelerating.
