how often was the .50cal jeep used in WW2?
every rifle company had a jeep with .50cal on it in the weapons squad, but its officially meant for light AA duty

did they just drive the jeep to the frontline and keep the gun pointed at the sky or did they keep it in reserve and then drive it to the front when they got reports of enemy planes?

It's a tough choice for me, because while I'm somehow not a carpenter, my father, brother, uncle, cousins, and grandfather are literally all actual carpenters by trade. I spent years as a kid doing wood work so I'm actually competent, but just went another way professionally.
If I don't put down wood it feels like I'm going to catch endless shit for it from five different grown-ass adult men every time I have family over until I'm fucking dead.
They already give me grief on the reg for buying a prefab staircase kit for my second floor instead of spooling my own bannister posts up on pop's lathe, I can only imagine the horror they'll note about being forced to walk on ceramic.
>>
>>64475428
If they've done any flooring in the last 20 years then they'll know all the hardwood available outside of insanely overpriced highend stuff is a pine core with an oak veneer, which is even worse than doing tile. If pop wants to grab some 5/4 oak boards and mill them down for you (which would still be spendy, running $5 a board foot for the cheapest at my local sawmill) then do wood, otherwise modern wood flooring options are garbage.
>>
>>64474770
>spend money on meme uppers instead.
Absolutely valid life choice.
As for the floors, what >>64474937 said. I've put in so many modern "wood" floors, and they ain't shit. It feels criminal that some of them are even being sold. Corkwood would hold up better. A solid tile cover with a light grey/tan grout (white grout has to be cleaned constantly) will last for decades. I helped put the tiles in at my folks' place back in '06 and it still looks brand new.

I think this is why we're starting to see a resurgence in retro AR15s. Everyone was desperate to replicate some tier negative 2 VANTA black ops high speed oper8tor and now that everyone has a short barrel AR with LPVO, silencer, PEQ 15 and light hooked up to pressure pads and decked out in gucci gear furniture people are bored with it. The trend will pass eventually and some years from now people will look back with embarrassment that they were getting geared up like soldiers despite the fact that they would fail the PT test horribly.

It's not like the man on the street actually knows more now though. They just insist on the most sanitized, predictable, safe imagery for everything. They want the soldier guys to say whisky tango and use an AR-15 because that doesn't set off alarm bells in their head, not because they actually know anything about this.

Also the bullshit was frequently more fun. Every B movie is boring as hell now, with the exact same BMX gear costumes. This fucking sucks.

This was one of the things that lead to the weird gun behavior on Walking Dead. They had children on the set around guns, even USING guns. The rules on the set plus the insurance costs would have been crazy if the guns were real, or even modified blanks-only ones, so they were often just replicas and the gunfire was CGI. Thatd be all AMC needed, for Enid to get shot during a take, like Brandon Lee or something.

I'd give every defender an AK and set up a few light mortar teams to cover the likely avenues of attack. Without knowing the negro armaments nor their plan it's tough to say much more.

a.k.a. euro central.
This is a thread meant for discussion of draconian gun control practices seen all over the world and overcoming them.

No one /pol/ cares about guns and discussing technicalities with them proved rather funny, they claim you can EASILY make industrial grade brass forming machinery and make ammo casings.

Now, on topic: the question of regulating self-loading and repeating arms comes down to the ammo.
It is evidently true that it is impossible to restrict primitive single shot weapons and primitive repeating arms (primitive repeating arms being cap and ball revolvers and revolving rifles, absolutely possible to do since it's viable to make caps at home from thin metal)
But it is more than enough to ban the ammo casings to restrict the availability of self-loading weapons, because you need conventional ammo.
We are assuming a worst case scenario where the state actually does their job, the black market is nonexistent and filled with feds. Basically, it's impossible for the average man to get a hold of ammo casings.

I myself am Russian and have a ton of spent ammo casings sitting on my table right now. I have also successfully reloaded spent primers and reprimed those casings proving that it is viable, if a bit time consuming to make near factory grade ammo at home. I'm a bit afraid to link the exact compounds, but I believe people here already know them, I for example used the WW1 (the corrosive one), it worked well.
But what if I was in Brazil? In brazil, ammo casings are regulated, blank guns (easily converted to fire live ammo) and blank ammo is banned too, and while it's true the crime is high and you can get a gun via black market, let's assume the state works. Actually, Japan is a great example: ammo casings are regulated, hence the assassin used an electrically primed double barrel pistol.
CONT.

>More importantly, why use brass? Why not cardboard tubes?
Brass is just easier. Copper washed or lacquered steel has also been used. Cardboard would be more difficult to eject. It may not act as a complete seal between the chamber and the bolt. Not insurmountable problems, but you'll be the one figuring them out.
Paper was used to make black powder "cartridges". But you didn't just chuck it in a chamber and fire, there were time consuming steps involved. If you have a revolver design and don't mind replacing the entire cylinder as a reload, cardboard can be ejected later when you have more time. Depends on what you're willing to put up with.
>>
>>64361675
>repeating arms comes down to the ammo.
There's been demonstrated prototypes of electrically ignited ammunition with 3d printed casings. A paper cartridge is an alternative, as is using a revolver cylinder system. Lots of reliability work remains, but it does work as more than the muzzleloader Shinzo Abe blaster.

Honorable mention to handheld lasers being more than powerful enough to cause instant permanent blindness and second degree burns.
