I know how /k/ feels but Russians really do make the coolest firearms. Mainly due to corruption and trying to make anything that will stick for ez rubles.
I'm pretty sure a taboo factor is at play in addition to the guns having a unique style
>>64397939>multiple pro ruzzian threads popped up at the same timethat picrel is pretty cool doe, I'm surprised FSB bots don't shill it more
AK's are cool looking, but the platform is outdated as fuck. To get an AK to have modern shit on it makes it weight way more than an equivalent AR.
>>64397965>>multiple pro ruzzian threads popped up at the same timeWhere?
>>64397939They seem cool because they're whacky and different. They also don't work properly because they're whacky and different (in addition to usual reasons for Russian stuff not working properly). Picrel and the entire design family are a great example. Subsonic "sniper rifles" with terrible bullpup triggers, a 2.2kg pistol, a sniper rifle based on an AK action with a 2 inch barrel (before porting)... So much of the dumb shit Russia does with small arms could never happen in a country with common civil firearms ownership.The "cool" factor is novelty. The novelty comes from doing something that is such an inherently shit idea that no one else does it.
>>64398006Hey man they made rifle that instead of shoot 1 bullet it shoot 2 bullets at once. That means more damage.
>>64398035I played Stalker Anomaly a while ago and was thinking how cool the guns were and then I made this thread
>>64398006>a sniper rifle based on an AK actionthis is inaccurate. there is an outward resemblance and similar controls, but they differ mechanically.
>>64398035The ammo one isn't Russia shilling, more of a nostalgic remembrance of CHEAP ammunition. Are you the eurotard soapboxing in that thread? If so, I hope you get a Russian bullet between your eyes
>>64398090No, the internals are very similar as well, and all of the principles of operation are the same. It's only slightlt less similar than a Tabuk but much more similar than a SVD.
>>64398104I'm not going to wade into an argument about it, but Russian shit didn't make ammo expensive, Sandy Hook and the media-fueled perpetually heightened state of public anxiety did. I do think it's a thread made by a shill because framing it in terms if "Where is my Russian ammo?" instead of "Why did ammo prices never recover after Sandy Hook?" seems like an intentional reach.
>>64398104>Are you the eurotard soapboxing in that thread?And no, I'm not. I haven't posted in that thread.
>>64398135apologies, I incorrectly recalled that the VSS used a sort-stroke piston. thanks for the correction
>>64398163>please argue about jews, muslims and middle east skub instead of discussing the ongoing FSB and leftpol raidsIt's all so tiresome.
>>64398156Sandy Hook was definitely a shift. That was when even Mosins tripled in price. But I really don't remember the ammo situation being particularly bad until 2020. Russian ammo post 2020 to 2022 is irrelevant because wolf .223 was still .55 cents per round.I blame 2020 as the finishing move>>64398169Alright, cool
>>64398178No problem king, don't forget to dream of a better world without Russia today.
>>64398180That's not at all what I said or implied; in fact, it isn't even close. If you're actually this retarded and ignorant then it's no wonder your beloved weapons subreddit went to hell.I'm sorry anon. This board left behind its libertarianism for /pol/ nazism, it left its nazism for Russian hate and goreposting, and now it is leaving that for... something else. Not sure what is next at this point.
>>64398182Nah, for example 9mm quadrupled in price overnight from Sandy Hook and never fully recovered. There are other charts out there with other calibers and stuff. Prices had been rising before then (the agitation I was talking about, not clear whether it's externally driven or just emerging from social media adoption) but Sandy Hook was a watershed moment.
>>64398163>only sided with Ukraine because it reminded them of the Gazan underdog/k/ predominately sided with Ukraine because Russian shills have been thumping their chests for decades about stronk Russia is; so when they fell flat on their face everybody pointed and laughed. Once that happened the shills doubled down to save face, which only made people hate them more. It's simple really.
>>64398256When you reach your enemy's capital city and get pushed back to that fifth of the territory while also losing an uncountable amount of troops, it is a humiliating defeat.Let me guess, are you going to say they never lost Kiev?
>>64398256>holding 1/5th of Ukraine after a five years, one million dead and their entire armored stockpile depletedI remember when you niggers said Berlin in two weeks. You can't even protect the cool soviet technology you inherited/stole.
>>64398256I forget that getting pushed back with alternating periods of stalemate actually means victory.
>>64397939I like my KP-9 but it is a shame the design is disposable. Allegedly the Russians would get 20k rounds through them before the receiver was fucked and they’d just replace it with a new one. There’s no spare parts for them in the US anymore, so you’re shit out of luck if something breaks unless K-USA ever comes back.
>>64398219>well if I can't interest you in a distracting skub argument about the middle east, what about a skub argument about political alignmentsIf you aren't what I'm accusing you of, then yoh must be an incredibly annoying person who everyone tries to avoid talking to IRL.
>>64398256>>64398294Ahahaha holy fuck the mask fell off fast here.
>>64398294Stalemates and losing obscene numbers of troops is not victory, your shitty analogy doesn't change that. Russia isn't winning.
>>64398294Oh right, you won't say that Russia was literally inside Kiev. How could I forget that? It goes against your programming.
>>64398294>it's like if China invaded the US!No it's like if America invaded Mexico and failed fucking miserably.
>>64398294I mean, it's literally just a matter of time before the Russian empire collapses in on itself. There was a chance for them to end the war on favorable terms, there was a possibility they could have salvaged their economy and kept the system chugging along, but that time has long since passed.Russia is completely unable to disrupt long range drones from entering their country, the rate at which key infrastructure like oil refineries and weapon factories has accelerated; it is a mathematical certainty that Russia will run out of steam, and that calculation gets more and more unfavorable by the day.
>>64398334>retarded /pol/ nigger can't figure out why he doesn't fit in and immediately outs himself with every post
>>64397939Their guns are neat. Too bad all the shit ones are common and the cool ones are never made beyond a dozen and sent to the 469th Stalin's Rimmers border patrol regiment to rot
>>64398360>I want things to stay the same and never change!>T. 5 year old
>>64398334>Interestingly, you could argue that America did invade Mexico in a wayThe pivot with russian shills is incredible, the whataboutism flows like a river
>>64398334>What mask? I want /k/ to go back to libertarianist boating meme. I personally don't give a fuck about two of the most corrupt and feminist countries on the planet eliminating their excess male population.The mask that lets you pretend to be a human being instead of a mouthpiece for Russian propaganda. Assuming you are what you say, you need to get the fuck out of the pseudo-libertarian Mises Caucus social media bubble, because it was taken over by Russian intelligence quite some time ago. You believe yourself a smart person who listens to other smart people in a media set you've cultivated for yourself, you could never be a critical piece of Russia's oldest intelligence playbook, right? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Useful_idiot)
>>64398294No this would be the equivalent of China invading through Canada and getting stopped at Chicago and claiming every hour that DC is just a week away for two years
>>64398163> People who believe in lethal force to protect their home from invaders sided with the country using lethal force to protect their home from invaders. More news at 11.
>>64398360>I don't want combat footage on /k/!Fag, also why aren't you posting cool russian weapons? Surely slurping off the Duma nets you at least some PNGs
>>64397948Yeah in the 80 and 90s. Now? Doubt.Remember, I fucking had to hide from russian nuclear weapons as a child. That they never came was nice but we still ran from bells and got in a bunker once a year. And I collect russian shit too, so we don't forget.My first day of kindergarten was the first day of MTV I think lol.
>>64398006Their crew served stuff is fine from the DShK to anything which fires the 14.3mm even the PTRD. Their sub-machineguns were also good during WW2 and would be fine with modern manufacturing making mags which would work in any gun. There is also that 4 gauge shotgun which is made from reprocessed anti-material barrels. Russia can make fun and often effective small arms, and even small artillery. The issue is more that the entire structure of their military undermines their natural advantages. If you had good crew served weapons and artillery you should focus on maximizing the logistical support for those weapons and encouraging the active use of them on the battlefield by everyone from local commanders to grunts. But commie shit and then post-commie paranoia meant that was impossible. Insane enthusiastic drunk slavs are exactly the kind of guys you want when it comes to actively engaging the enemy on their on initiative, but their passion is wasted by a system which not only doesn't reward or facilitate their behavior but punishes it. An army of shitty but "good'nuff" weapons supported by a massive effective logistics train looks good on paper but was failed by the command and control structure in practice.
>>64398378It's so interesting to me that while professing how little you care about it, you continue to post every kremlin talking point as if working down a list, like how is cyberbullying real nigga, just walk away
>>64398256Only a fifth? KEK
>>64398378>He thinks supporting Ukraine is the reason why he's brokeSurely, it must be the 10 cents per paycheck going to Ukraine that must be why I'm poor, and not the 6000% pay increase the (((CEO))) of my company has taken over my lifetime!

>>64398294>invade a country right next door with 1/20 the number of active tanks, 1/3 the active personnel, 1/10 your air force, equipped with similar weapons>invade a power across the sea which has 50 modern SSNs vs your 3, with three times the armor you have, ten times your air force, with a population with probably 1 billion civilian firearms and the ability to make dynamite at any momentThese are not equivalent, if the Chinks did as well in some hypothetical invasion of America as Russia has in Ukraine they would be lauded as stupid and over ambitious but competent.
>>64398182Euromaidan. EVERYONE in slav-land started arming up, and the middle east had just finished their shit too so...Another case of "infinite soviet surplus" being not.
>>64398407Something about the baggy camo and Adidas is 10/10 cool
>>64398378>blacks and spics cost the empire 2 trillion annually>jews cost God knows how much>libtards allocate another billion to useless shit>its the Russian war which is sucking the treasury dryC'mon man, if we didn't have these scum we could afford three simultaneous GWOTs and still run a budget surplus. We could fuck with the Ruskies and Chinks so hard. Remember just because you hate Globohomo doesn't mean you can't hate Gulaghomo.
>>64398163>only sided with Ukraine because it reminded them of the Gazan underdogI don't see the entire West arming Ham Ass for free and cheering their small hat enjoying leader on to slaughter the invaders in the media. There *is* an ME entity that fits that basic description though.
>>64398256It's like this post was purposefully crafted to validate everything I said.
>>64398421Yes anon, if we lived in a utopia and everyone followed the rules then gore posting would be not allowedBut then you should probably also cease meta posting like you are doing, global rule 8 is in effect, after all Perhaps we should all act like rule enforcement has always been patchy at best instead?
>>64398421Hey Carol in anon's HR department this guy is a FAGGOT and spamming off topic shit without contributing
>>64398378>What I do fucking care about is my income being parasitically drained to pay for it.>So what's the argument now?Your income isn't parasitically drained for it. Not one cent of it. It's funded by debt, and the debt is paid for by foreign citizens. The debt is repaid by more debt paid for by foreign citizens.The foreign citizens voluntarily pay this extra-territorial tax to the US to act as the world's reserve bank and police/military force. The entire system relies on the US being a trustworthy and powerful party, since that's the key criteria for being either a bank or a police force people want. The US gets to roll in money as a result and enjoy the advantages of controlling the reserve currency, deciding the edge cases for rules enforcement and getting preferential prioritisation for policing.The entire system is literally your wet fucking dream, but you've been conditioned to pretend it's not and hate it.Last fully accounted year (2023) the US took $4.4t in revenue, only 2.2t of that in income tax, but spent 6.1t. For every dollar you contributed, a dollar was contributed by a transnational based in America to enjoy the benefits of the security guarantees described, and another dollar was contributed by voluntary, mostly foreign, taxpayers (bonds).I will not entertain this conversation further. Stop gargling propaganda, swallowing a little, and spitting the rest out back into conversations like this. I already had to wait 10 minutes to post this because of a temp ban from your saar friends reporting me for off topic posting and trolling, in a thread where I'm the only fucking person who has made any actual on topic posts of greater than 0 value, so you can go and absolutely fuck yourself. You're either paid to troll this board with Russian propaganda, or you're so fucking conditioned by it that you reflexively do it without even realising what it is and what you're doing.Pic: Cooler guns than anything from Russia ever.
>>64398384No one is ever talking about any of those in these threads though (except maybe the ks23, but that's not here). Everyone always means terrible meme shit like the Groza, VSS, ASH etc. To the people who post these threads, something like a dooshka is the most boring and lame thing imaginable - it's old and even has some wood on the furniture and it's shaped like a normal gun!
>>64398360I'm still pretty libertarian at my core on social issues, despite this site's drift towards bootlickery over the years, but geopolitics is a separate issue. What's the libertarian argument for Soviet revanchism? I really wanna hear it.Here's my moist nugget and dick grip Makarov, but had for well under $200 back in the day (unfortunately I missed out on the sub $100 era of slavshit). Let's see yours if you've really been here that long.
>>643984214chan's version of "safe for work" was always meant to be taken a bit loosely, and moot said as much back in the day. Someone else might have a screencap of it. Gore was always given some leniency here if it was specifically related to weapons and warfare. It's only after 2022 that I've seen people incessantly bitching about gore here, and only ever when it's Russians. They're as quiet when it's Ukrainians as they were when it was the Tongo Tongo ambush reposted 500 times.
>>64398542I already rejected you trying to change the topic onto an argument about jews or something, and what you posted has nothing to do with what I posted. America's government, and certainly military support to fuck Russia, isn't paid for by "gentile Americans plowing fields", it's mostly paid for basically voluntarily by (foreign) companies and the (foreign) bond market.
>>64398574You gonna post your guns Mr. Oldfag?
>>64397994I want an AK in 5.56because.
>>64398163/K/ has been almost entirely pro Ukraine from the very beginning of this shitshow.
>>64398163Slight correction: A significant amount of pro-Ukraine Americans sided with Ukraine because the US government, mainstream media, and celebrities told them that a bunch of retarded slavs slapfighting halfway around the world was worth their money. A significant amount of pro-Ukrainian Europeans sided with Ukraine because their governments told them that they would be invaded next if they didn't, even though it's been fairly obvious for a couple of years now that Russia can't handle Ukraine, never mind the rest of Europe.Aside from establishing the drone meta, the entire thing has been incredibly tiresome and wasteful. 1/5 stars would not give money to slavs again.>inb4 russian shillFuck Russia and fuck Ukraine. I hope that they both cease to exist, but Russia goes first. I want Ukraine to stick around until they've paid us back every single fucking dollar and euro that we dumped into their corrupt asses, plus interest, and then they can go too.
>>64398035Hahahahahaha the faggot Russian shills brigade reported me for this post pointing out their psyop and I've been getting temp bans and warnings ever since despite being the only on topic poster in the thread.Suck my fucking nuts all of you freedom-hating swine. The coolest gun is the 1911, and it won TWO WORLD WARS, something Russia barely even managed once and even then only because it got carried by Belarusian and Ukrainian talent, and American industry.Captcha: WW2GD
>>64398334>Russia>Feministlolwut, of all the adjectives you could've chosen?Russia passed a law in 2017 which gives a free pass for an annual wife beating and they're one of the most insecure countries on earth when it comes to the desire to be seen as macho and manly. I can not think of a less feminist non-muslim country.
>>64398612>their moneyAmericans don't pay for America being the world police. Quite the opposite, they get paid for it. See >>64398483
>>64398606The only difference is back in 2014 no one really knew wtf was going on, and Russia (donbabwe) definitely had the edge on kino
>>64398647Lmao bullshit. I've been temp banned and warned dozens of times for posting anti-Russian shit, or even just calling out their spin jobs, including this very day in this very threas. The idea that mods enforced a pro-Ukrainian narrative is a load of shit.

>>64397994That's why the motto is nyet, rifle is fine. Never has a fully modern tacticool AK looked good however you're lying through your teeth if you don't find some variation of the classic AK at least a little cool
>>64398647Or maybe it's because /k/ is pro self defence
>>64398604Hmm so there’s an mk47 that’s like an m4 with 7.62 mags, has there been the inverse: something like an ak design that takes stanag mags
>>64397939I dunno why, but the VSK doesn't really tickle my pickle. VSS/AS VAL? Oh yeah. Ash 12.7? You bet. But the VSK? Nothing. Totally flaccid.

>>64398651>Americans don't pay for America being the world policeThen explain that to the IRS next April. See if you can convince them to give me a break, because I'm currently paying out the ass for something and I don't feel like I'm getting a good return on my investment.
>>64398421>But no one would be saying they weren't winning hard or fast enough.China using force of arms to get boots on the ground in the US AT ALL would be a turning point in world history because it would mean that the combined might of the US military - nuclear arsenal included - couldn't stop them storming across the entire Pacific and planting their flag whereas Russia not only dramatically outclasses Ukraine across the board by every metric aside from foreign goodwill and standard of living but forcibly annexed a sizable chunk of it in the last decade and shares a land border that is several thousand miles long.
>>64399135You're paying for Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security mostly. Go complain about it to the boomers on Facebook.
>>64398612A celebrity didn’t do shit neither did the media. Russia invaded and Ukraine is defending itself. Pretty self explanatory why people side with the defender

>>64399348>le both sides
>>64399383No because I can actually see and look at shit besides running off shit from the fucking 1990s. Fucking you’re such cocksucker you can’t even hold a conversation without blaming the media which never brought up to begin with. Also you have got to have the dumbest reasons I’ve ever seen. It’s quite clear you’re a vatnik trying to hide behind muh both sides argument because you still think Poland seethes at Ukraine for something back in 1920. You instantly blame anyone having a different opinion than you as brainwashed by the media and bring up Star Wars for something reason. Post your fucking guns you literal faggot

They benefit (mostly) Americans, unlike Ukraine and Russia. Your analogy is shit. I will not complain about it on Facebook because I don't spend time there. I'll complain about it here, it'll rankle NPC's like you, you'll give me my (you) because you're easily manipulated, and then I'll prod you some more because I enjoy watching you perform as programmed, and when you receive your next illogical program in 2026, I'll make fun of you for that too.>>64399334Were you cheering for Georgia in 2008? No, you weren't. You get a pass for that because you weren't alive back then, but for the NPC's that were capable of rational thought 17 years ago, didn't give a shit about it because they weren't told to, and now give a shit about this? They deserve scorn and ridicule. Also>Pretty self explanatory why people side with the defenderLOL. LMAO even. Not a history buff, are you?
>>64399407nah, he's right, both are basically just white niggers. Though I do have to say that calling Russians "white" is quite a stretch, I think technically Russia is more Asian/Mongol than white since losing eastern Europe.

>>64399383I hate to break it to you but most of us really, REALLY don't care. I hope in a vague way that both Ukraine and Russia throw off their Soviet hangover and get their shit together so life there is worth living, but in the meanwhile I will continue to enjoy Russia's ongoing and abject humiliation simply because the Russians have made themselves incredibly easy to dislike, often intentionally. The fucking phase of the moon probably has more impact on my life than some mobik getting cubed half a world away and as such I can just sit back and bask in the embarrassment of riches provided by Russian incompetence. Sturmladas, 40% of their strategic bombers going up in smoke, the sinking of the Moskva, Prigozhin's thunder run on Moscow, the de facto extinction of the VDV - it's all just so much sweet nectar to my soul after a lifetime of exposure to their smug, obnoxious self-promotion.

>>64399438Sure you did, kid.>>64399439>you vatnikLike pottery.>>64399447Or more likely (from someone that was an adult back then), normies didn't care because nobody told them to. They generally couldn't find it on a map, much like they couldn't find Ukraine on a map. I'm glad that you know what's going on though. You're the smart one, not me.I can't wait to see what you automatons get wound up over next year, but I'm sure that it'll make its way here, as it always does.
>>64403641>like pottery You mad you got called out faggot?
>>64397939If i could grab three guns from the russians i think it would be a 74U, a MP412, and a A-91 but that last one is because A-91 in GFL is crazy hot and it has warped my perception of the gunGod i love this crazy drunk bitch
>Look at that silly Russian bringing a knife to g-aaack It was a Gknife all along

>>64405774Anon, I'm looked at your picture and I happened upon a thought.Where backblast going?
I don't care at all for most Russian guns, but I would commit a lot of crimes for an AN-94
>>64400802>>64407378It's disappointing because the chamber is so far ahead of the magazine. You could fit another 2" of barrel in there if you tried harder.
>>64407378Why are extreme designs like this pioneered, sometimes even beyond the proof of concept stage, and then abandoned immediately and forever? You'd think that with the decades of cumulative improvements in firearms design between then and now someone would eventually come along and reinvigorate the concept. I suppose the obvious answer is, "Because it's a shit idea," but if it works, it can be made reliable, and if it can be made reliable, it could confer a massive advantage. You could build one of these Soviet fever dream bullpups around an intermediate cartridge and you'd have exactly what the US is shopping for rn: long range, flat trajectory, large bullet, compact silhouette
Is the PKM/PKP the only good Russian small arm (when judged against modern peers)? The AK platform in general isn't particularly well suited to modernization and the only thing going for it is how cheaply you can make them. PKM/PKP at least is very light for its weight class, though the shitty barrel change system is a minus. I know it beats itself to death because of how light it is, though I feel like not being able to have a machinegun of theseus isn't *that* big of a negative for anyone except penny pinchers in congress.
>>64407928The PKP is like 50 MOA. It's an emotional support weapon, designed to turn bullets into morale. It can't actually kill anyone outside 100 yards without getting exceptionally lucky.
>>64400196Fuck off and die.t. Czech
>>64400544this piston ammo for shotguns would be awesome, think about it. if you could make it reusable, even if not immiedietly, like you gotta take it home, degas it, reset it up, even if that shit was expensive, you just buy 4-6 of them, load yourself up 100% silent buckshot/birdshot and go hunting without having to worry about your own ears or scaring prey away. it would be perfect for fudds. and imagine having 6-8 of these for home defense. you get to fire a shotgun in enclosed spaces, in your home, kill home invaders dead and not even wake the neighbor. in that situation if you REALLY need to go past 5-6 shots, then fuck it, move to the loud stuff, your fighting 3-4 people anyways and better deaf then dead. the space you get in a shotgun shell should make it waaay easier to make a piston style round
>>64398604Get polish AK - wz. 96 Beryl
Hahhah silly Russians don't I'm safe underwa-AACK!
>>64407407Blow back in your face. It'd be unpleasant.
>>64408320The full size Beryl is kinda uglyMini-Beryls a cute though, want one

>>64400196Shut up Karl
>>64408874>gas maskFor what purpose?
>>64408928Ziggers use grenades with chloropicrin.I think for this purpose.
Dis shit baffles me fr
>>64405631ok maybe I would like a A 91 too
>>64407869Because it's cheaper to keep making what you are already making when what you are making already works well enough. Officers looked at not only this one but several prototype rifles made throughout the 1950s-1990s and said, oh well it is definitely functionally better than an AK, but not ENOUGH better to warrant replacing the inventory. This is exactly what happened to the XM8/G36 as well, so it is not a nation-specific issue. Also the same reason bullpups are doomed. Everyone has already standardized on the AR and AR-compatible parts. In order to actually force militaries to adopt new shit you need to either make a breakthrough in warfare to make the current gun extremely suboptimal or create a gun that is truly groundbreaking in a new way. And even in the latter case you can still fail at that if the new weapon suddenly loses all funding and interest due to collapsing enemies (G11). Shorter barrel lengths and 10% decreases in malfunctions are just not appealing enough to militaries for them to overhaul their tooling and aftermarket parts
>>64400196This summarizes the current state of this board perfectly.
>>64397965lol
>>64397939Wrong. Belgians make the best firearms.
>>64397939>coolPic unrelated?
>>64398719I get ERECT everytime I think about VSK-94, which is often
Check out this unholy abomination found inT&T
>>64409074>Dis shit baffles me frIt's honestly stupid simple. Basically you need something to slide backwards. Most rifles use gas for this. This gun does, cool. It also needs something to slide back again really fast at essentially the same time but gas is already used. Cool. Attach a pulley so the thing sliding back pulls a wire and slides another thing back at essentially the same time.Cool. Problem solved.Russians are really good at designing shit in the most simplistic way possible. What really let's them down imo is their materials tech and manufacturing sector is turd world tier.
>>64397939>Russians really do make the coolest firearmsThey have a few, but not really. Germans and their ilk (Swiss, Nordics, Austrians) have them beat when it comes to ingenuity and actual combat effectiveness for the most part.
>>64397939Anything still based on old soviet shit is pure SOVL.Nu Russia cannot into aesthetics.>So much of the dumb shit Russia does with small arms could never happen in a country with common civil firearms ownershipThat's a bit of an overstatement, the free market produces tons of whacky shit. Granted, companies that overdo it usually go under, but Keltec is still out there.
>>64407378Wouldn't brass be able to fly infront of the barrel?
