>>65310726kek
>>65310712Okay but isn't this (getting into muh drones) about addressing peer threats OR greater? Based off all the homebrew stuff and cat and mouse and fiber optic fuckery in Russo-Ukraine, it's a reasonable assumption a similar industry would burst up here the second any boog-adjacent engagement kicked off. It's not just what was available but what holes and gaps were identified and exploited almost immediately before being patched by both homebrew markets and foreign suppliers. I guess what I mean is you might've scoffed at the idea of 1 billion km fiber optic drums for drones before the conflict started but now you might seem them and go "well duh, they're addressing x, y, z EW and jamming layers" and I do not see, even if the current conus lacks that kind of market, how market demands before, during, and after localized conflicts might SPUR that market.Is this something you've mapped out in your strategic deployments of drones? Or are you operating under the impression that you will have time to address these concerns as they appear rather than preemptively? I hate having to type out wug-like posts to try and get you to understand what I mean without being gay about it and I hope you appreciate the effort >>65310726this is arg, bucko.

I had to ping AI because this was something I legit read like a decade ago now but Karl Popper on his philosophy of science aptly puts that "The more specific the prediction, the easier it is to falsify."While I don't think A2 has read much Popper, he is generally too smart to fall into the logical trap of making overly specific predictions, and fishing for them generally doesn't yield responses. >I hate having to type out wug-like postsWe know; you're brown (and have the corresponding disdain for both the elegance of well thought out prose and a niggardly fear of looking like you might have "tried too hard" or "taken things too seriously")>>65310776Aimpoint PRO fr fr fs>>65310778First response best response.

>>65311233You need to stop shitting up threads when I post>Karl Popperundergrad throwback The only substantive contribution from this post was a single line about the anecdotal experience of the 43x. You're not fulfilling your own ratio.>At the heat death of the universe you might argue this ideology or that philosophy, you might have rewritten your ontology a hundred times over under the guise of innumerable faces-and yet I will recognize you. I recognized you among the limbs thrown athwart, bemired in smoke and gas and blood, at the Battle of Navarino. You were Egyptian. I was Greek. You stabbed me and in your irises I saw that memory of us growing up in Tenochtitlan under the shade of Oyamel firs, counting the monarch butterflies resting in migration. We talked about what spirits we would embody as warriors, and our favorite foods. >I wish I could have told you all this at the cafe in Budapest before the tanks started rolling in. I wish I could have told you when we were both mold spores floating in the wind. I wish I could have told you when we were swimming as manta rays following the first female manta teaching us how to hang around light to gather food from the humans. We were chewing crud in the ngorongoro crater when you asked me where this life would take us. I pondered a moment, taking in the expanse atop our perches as kestrels on the world trade center one brisk morning- I couldn't answer. All these lives we've lived together and I haven't the faintest idea.
anyone have thoughts on essential arms j-15? this is preban, just dont know much about them. sucker for the triangle handguards. 600 seemed reasonable
>>65311233>drama for at least 24% of this post>36/148 words if we're being generous>claims to be generally less than 20%I bet if I went over all your drama shit posts this past week you've easily gone well beyond your ratio.

>>65311317Were you going for a collector's item?
>>65311323yes and no, id like to shoot it but often my stuff sits. dont know much about ars desu. just thought it was k00l
>>65311325Eh it's aight, definitely a nice collectors item but considering how easy it is to get that "look" with "better" parts. Have you tried cycling it or looked inside?
Found this piece of shit at a LGS for $400. It was rattlecanned really shitty camo, spent 2 hours detail stripping and cleaning it all off with acetone. Got it because I thought it’d be a good base for a Colt 723 clone since it already had the proper upper and barrel. Threw on some shit I had laying around for now but I think I’m heading in the right direction.
>>65311340Nice grip. What handguard is that? Have you shot it or looked through the barrel with like a barrel scope or just the profile to see the markings?
>>65311340For reference, this is the shit that was on it before. Whole thing was painted like the stock and pg, it was disgusting but other than that it was like new condition, hardly any wear marks internally.
>>65311350Handguards some shit quad rail the gun store had for $20. Plan on getting 6-hole skinny handguards for it but it’s a whole lot better than the stock ones IMO.Just got it earlier today, havent shot it and don’t have a barrel scope. The barrel profile is the exact kind I wanted too.

America is a clenched fist. It is a white-knuckled rein galloping into the fog of war, a coat dusted in soot and sweat. A patriot and traitor all the same, behold an emaciated pale body two fathers removed from the Holland marshes. Here that didn't matter anymore, not more than his will and grit and smile. He heard the call, he heard the shots, and now here he is amongst the rabble.The sweltering Manhattan heat. Climbing the pines for an ambush: allow the mosquitoes to suck up blood not to break your aim. Frizzen scraped, a flash in the pan, then the fire. A lead ball cut through humid air into the heart of another young man. From the same country. Here that didn't matter anymore, not more than his hate and his sneer and his contempt. He heard the call, he heard the shots, and now here he is amongst His Majesty's battalions.Before he was cut from this mortal realm, this loyalist cared nothing for the haughty ideals peddled by drunkards and lawyers. He scoffed, if only they could comprehend, they would question its machinations again. These warships will make them to understand. If they want to debase themselves with savage libertine concepts—BAH! The common man? The disgusting dregs that crowd the mess halls and taverns and brothels of this pitiful, poor crust of the empire?We will crush this rebellion. We will bring them to heel under one million tons of lumber and iron and gunpowder. We will starve them in our prison ships. We will plunder their harbors. We will send the redskins to collect their scalps. We will blacken the sun with cannonfire, we will show them why Britain is the inheritor of Rome! And yet his life and arrogance were cut down like so many trees to feed their burgeoning war machine. America is a clenched fist. America is a trigger finger. America is a reckless charge on horseback, the men beside you crumbling as their horses collapse, exploded cavities and screaming. Men cowering from the frontlines coming closer and closer until—

>>65310721Long Time no see anons, first off, that fucking US Belgium was a piss poor showing. guess FN ARs are better than DD after all.Went and shot with a navy reservist and my older brother on the fourth, both of which didn't have guns. brought out most of my collection including my AR. We started off sheet shooting, which was something Ive never done before and tried it right then and there. It was fun, would do again. then, we moved over to the rifle range and I pulled out the AR. It shined, both of em loved using it and realized that having fun burns through ammo quick. .308 was mentioned and so i brought out the mosin due to current /brg/ rifle waiting on new jigs and it was a hit as well. on the way home we were able to see fireworks starting to pepper the sky. 10/10 would recommendOh and yesterday I did an interview with an infamous local firearm manufacturer. hoping to get the job if for nothing but the machining experience.Anyhow, how was your Independence day anons?

>>65311676>hoping to get the job if for nothing but the machining experience.Excellent. For some reason machinist jobs in the gun industry pay poorly compared to other industries (famously KAC offered me a paltry $17/hr to move for a machinist role). But with money not being the primary driving factor you'll be sure to blossom, and surely the pay isn't that bad and you can leverage that experience in the future. I hope it goes well for you, anon.Glad your holiday weekend was good. Sad about US too, rn my heart is on Norway. Post ur ar and or other guns

Buktek Jaguar Fatty 762 Inconel can at the dealer, waiting on Form 4. Not super stoked with what I'm seeing inside. Pure conjecture but it looks like it was optimized more for backpressure management on full size 30cal cartridges like 7.62x51/308 etc. Aggressive bypass porting both in terms of aperture cross sectional area and port count. Only 4 baffles doesn't bode well either. Fucking annoyed because throughout February and March of this year during the "development" of this can I was absolutely haranguing Jaguar about whether or not this can was going to be biased towards intermediate 30cal like 300blk and 7.62x39 and 30-30 or full size full power 30cal like 7.62x51/308 etc. Can is 13.4oz with end cap, no mount4.9" long overall length with average outer diameter of 2.12" or so. Inconel. I'm confident such a form factor could be designed to suppress quite well for intermediate 30cal. It will suck if this thing blows, was right under $1k as most cans are these days. >>65311281>nice compThanks I took the time to find and get a reduced overall length one that would be flush with the end of the TLR 7 Sub to avoid any wasted length. I need to replace that TLR 7 Sub with a Sub X Enhanced USB for 16340 compatibility. I also need to just like sell the shield S15 mags and maybe the metal HYVE mag release also and just go to all polymer. I would get a 43X MOS over a 19 for sure. >>65311318>not understanding how statistics workTalk about being a nigger. >>65311387That looks atrociously unwieldy.>>65312143>>65312317Shit b8
Not the change from the more traditional ~30deg angled cone blast baffle to the "concave" Z-fold style blast baffle between versions of 5.56 Ti cans. The "concave Z-fold" blast baffle is the newer design, but Rob Orgel reports that the two versions sound indistinguishable on 5.56 SBR gas guns. The 762 Inconel blast baffle has similar geometry and design to the newer version 5.56 Ti blast baffle, the "concave Z-fold" profile. The difference appears to be in bypass port count and size. Unknown as of now how many baffles the 556 Fatty has, but it is ~0.5" shorter or so.
Indecisive.
I am not reading any of that lol lmao

>>65310753The entire ukraine conflict's cycle of measure, counter measure, countercountermeasure, repeat is predicated on the availability of rapidly pivoting external suppliers. There are real time tactic level countermeasures for jamming and then they are addressed at a hardware level later on. Conversely there are different jamming tactics that can be applied in real time. Both of these run their course and eventually inputs are needed.Once again id like to point to cartel drone/counter drone operations. Every video/photo of the hermanos humping RAS47, SCAR17 (iron sights) and a barrett (also irons) through the woods now includes a dude with a "drone gun" which is simply a directional jammer platform that covers commercial off the shelf frequencies. These are decently effective at pushing cartel uas operations to high altitudes which weakens sensors, improves detection behavior and makes drops from them less accurate. But both sides in this fight have ran out of innovation (mexican intellectuals) so the conflict has stalemated with decisive victories when one side fucks up/forgets their equipment. Domestically do I think that people in scale have the organization, logistics and technical aptitude to iterate at a ukranian pace? Not internally. External actor support can for sure influence this but its going to be a lot more difficult with a much larger scale and geographic challenge. One does not simply aliexpress their goods at that point.>>65310776ACOG>>65310726Carry a 19>>65312435>BUDTEKDUDE WEED!>>65312495Cat is cringe and therefor a non option

>>65312645What about The Hobbit?
>>65312551Very good points brought up! I’m always a fan of the cartel conflicts myself. As far as domestically, I think you’re right in that it won’t be as prevalent or all encompassing as Ukraine for the reasons you mentioned, which will give a ton of importance to coastal regions due to the fact that they can get shipped easier there. Due to the west coast facing China, this would mean any faction or force would need some presence on that coast for drone shenanigans. Besides that, cartel conflicts are always super fun and it’s interesting watching them innovate to trench warfare and drone tactics in real time. You’re mostly right but I think it’s worth mentioning that most cartels are undergoing internal conflict atm so “innovation” will be slowed because of that too.Also I need you to design me the perfect anti cartel rifle/carbean based on what you’ve seen. Not only capable of facing off the Fortnite scar (irons), but the weird Mexican terrain where it’s huge valleys and tall peaks, jungles to semi arid within an hour

>>65312703No, IRA stuff is exactly what I was envisioning, but again the coasts, especially west coast, would be the most important factor. You need outside support in the form of arms dealers or clandestine support to come in, otherwise the govt will just smother you.

>>65312728Yeah no doubt about the northern/southern borders, but they won’t be able to do it at the scale that coastal shipping would. I do think any rebellion or faction or Provos like group will need ready access to any ports for them to succeed. This doesn’t have to be hoi4 nonsense, could just mean some sort of small discreet presence in like Portland (either coast). Though the east coast is a lot sketchier due to it being right by the imperial core of the country, it’s why I don’t think Appalachia would ever be a major factor beyond many low level insurgency shit. Anyway an SPR? Maybe like an… M27?

>>65312727In jalisco and michoacan you have a lot of cartel UAS violence and this is where most statistics are gathered. They are using DJI matrice and similar to drop IEDs with HME from ~300-500ft AGL with pretty decent accuracy. Their TTPs are a quite a bit more simple/straightforward than you are used to seeing in ukraine or similar but nonetheless effective against a less disciplined force. Ground forces have started making use of drone detection and jamming tools from china to reduce the effectiveness of the commercial off the shelf drones. There isnt much in the way of FPV yet but its coming, they have helicopter shootdowns in colombia from them. The colombians are also working on fixed wing to strike bases/lopops/etc that would otherwise be protected from point to point weapons.Closer to the US border the role is much closer to ISR. Cartels will put observation teams in high rocky outcroppings along the border to observe rival groups, CBP and ranchers so they can slip guys in easily. CBP has very limited detection and interdiction capability for these drones regardless of where they are hovering. Smuggling drones have been stopped/crashed occasionally but its just so much more efficient for them to drive/carry heavier loads with current battery limits.>>65312751Its going to be very difficult to maintain a functional JIT economy while also increasing border scrutiny in any form. Going to be far more likely to move interior checks. >Anyway an SPR? Maybe like an… M27?Negative. No need for that.>>65312771Larger issue is both of those cans souring the corncob aesthetic with their disgusting shapes.
>>65312809I think there’s a strong need for the IAR that doubles as an excellent SPR…
>>653128151)Mag fed automatic rifles are dumb2)You will btfo the SPR capability by burning out the barrel with IAR fire3)Marines learning freefloat rifles are more accurate (SHOCKING) doth not a SPR maketh.
>>65312809>border updateinteresting, I guess its easier to put some dudes with thermals and extra batteries on a ridgeline for a day or two than run up a drone with equivalent techdo you think there is a conscious decision to not push the limits at the border because the US gov PP will come down on them? or is it more driven by drone tech limits?
>>653128231) no they’re fine just don’t expect it to be an lmg. Imo it just makes it a more effective assault rifle2) true! So what I’d do is use it mostly as an SPR and keep the full auto to when needed as situation dictates 3) quit being a party pooper, it’s GOOD. And I just liked it a lot desu..Anyway as far as the other stuff, again I agree on the border thing which is why imo opinion any coastal region that also shares a border north or south is the best bet for anything. Even with interior checks, that’s two entry points that are damn near impossible to fully lock down.
>>65312830>EasierOh no, dont get me wrong. There will be a drone in the toolkit of the guy on the ridgeline. They use the high terrain to improve signal push over distance.>Do you think there is a decisionIts just a different kind of situation up there. In the south if you start shooting, it continues until it stops. On the border if you start shooting, cbp moves to the border along that area and you cant get your load across. Now obviously this is exploited with the ol >Magdump over here so people can cross over there. But that is often coordinated with drone teams to ensure CBP has repositioned. There is a huge political HMMM each drone engagement as the US doesnt want to get into the habit of shooting down random things over the border. That said, if they can validate the thing is threatening airports along the border or bases they will go kinetic on it pretty quickly. You can google "El paso drone" and read the top 3 headlines to learn a lot more about what a shitshow that is down there.
>>65312840>No they are fineIncorrect. The whole point of a machinegun is to replace riflemen holding a sector/piece of terrain. This in maneuver warfare results in freeing infantry to maneuver. The rate at which the fire can be sustained directly correlated to the rate at which the maneuver can be sustained. This is why everyone is obsessed with talking guns and other tactics.Giving someone 20x 30 round magazines is not the same sustained fire as giving someone a proper machinegun. Its very organic to the rifle squad and basically "Free" in terms of encumbrance but will neverbe a real macheengun. >Keep full auto to when situation dictatesAnd that was what the original mk12 program hadhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EuuPpHiTDoI>BorderThe majority of violence is going to be the result of the tools people have on hand, not the tools that the chinese/russians/iranians send over on boats. There are shrimply unlimited small arms in the USA. The bad people with the very advanced equipment are going to be using it sparingly for showpiece engagements.
>>65312873>It’s very organic to the rifle squad and basically "Free" in terms of encumbrance but will neverbe a real macheengun.That’s what I want it for though. For that specific purpose it’s good and if I need anything more I’d just have to get a machine gun.I just want a retardedly overbuilt, retardedly reliable, accurate weapon system with a medium+ barrel…
>>65312893>That’s what I want it for though.So get a Lima 6, shrike or similar actually lightweight beltfed and achieve superior firepower?
>>65312909I think you’re misunderstanding me, I do not actually want an LMG/belt fed, I want an overbuilt assault rifle that’s capable of more than the average bear
>>65312921I understand that perfectly. It is simply stupid.
>>65312925You have a 416! You know what it is that I desire! Do not call it stupid!

>>65312940>it’s stupid in that role:( what do you recommend then
Wuggy is so annoying its unreal. Anything of any value posted here in the last 3 weeks? I cant be shitted to take new so have an ancient pic. I have been shooting alot more lately which is good. Cans are inbound, maybe i’ll take updated pics then (unlikely). I bought a 10/22 and got an ariska low magnifier mount with a pa magnifier to throw behind the holosun dot. Idk if i should get a silencerco sparrow or have my buddy who’s manufacturing cans for himself legally give it a whirl. I shot with one of his and it actually sounded really good but I’m not sure what kind of life span his shit will have
>>65312948>What do you recommendA deep think about the purpose of small arms>>65313007>Magwell grip off a benchYou are unreal
>>65313007>Idk if i should get a silencerco sparrowDon't. Outdated monocore tech that's literally overpriced at this point. Look at DA Mask, Rugged Oculus, or OCL 22Ti as readily available alternatives.
>>65313015Pics probably 4 years old at this point. I didnt own a bipod at the time and a friend was using my bag. Bench shooting is kinda gay anyways
>>65313007Its a 22lr can, you dont really need to concern yourself with lifespan as much as you need to concern yourself with cleaning. Modern waterbased cleaners remove the alumnium downsides for the most part but ti is nice to have if you want to spend and possibly shoot magnums or 5.7 poorly out of it. I dont think id buy a stainless steel .22 can in current year. >>65313028>OverpricedPossibly true>Monocore obsoleteBad post>Mask, oculus or OCLBad post.>>65313038>Bench shooting is kinda gay anywaysTrue!
>>65313015Cop out answer, wtf A2. Anyway I’m aware of their purpose and everything, I’ve used them in that purpose. But with small units especially you can’t always have everything you want or need, so I think have an assault rifle that can perform above that level is important, or at least worth considering. At the end of the day it’s literally just a 416 with a 16.5” medium-ish barrel, i don’t think it’s that bad. Though maybe the pic is saying something, maybe M16A4 is it
>>65311670>>65311688YOU LIED TO ME>>65312369Shut up bitch
Should I buy a modlite plhv3 head?
>>65313043As much as i like 5.7 i dont see it in my future soon and i wouldnt want to share a rimfire can with a centerfire round. Im negligent when it comes to cleaning my guns but im trying to be better. It would be nice to just be able to toss something in an ultrasonic or dunk in some cleaner juice. Is the sparrow outdated? God forbid i ask this but would the hux .22 can be decent?
>>65313127Idk
>>653131625.7 kinda sucks in rimfire cans anyway, way better in 5.56 cans.>Cleaning22lr cans will lock up if you do not break the moving assemblies free every outing. Like dead serious you need to do it every outing, especially if you have high moisture concerns.You choose to ignore this and your shit will break when you try to muscle it apart.Alumnium is no good in ultrasonic, cerakoted cans also a nogo in ultrasonic most of the time.

>>65312551Okay thanks for the response. I also read through the convo with anons. As always I mostly disagree with some of the conjecture but do appreciate the information and insights, thank you.
>>65313089>You lied to meIt was all part of the plan. One less loose end
>>65312720>tfw you own a "reddit bad guy" can
Went and shot 4 guns and now i gotta clean them. I hate this
>>65312435Oof that sucks, not gonna lie I have been miring the Jaguar cans. I was tempted by the Jaguar 556 fatty but I'm wary of the 2" diameter causing spill from weapon lights. I'm torn between the 5.75" Jaguar 556 Shorty and the Rhodie. But I'm also tempted by the Rhino-S because it's stupid light at 9oz and doesn't spark on 14.5 at all (there's a video floating around proving this)
>>65313288I always take 1 long gun and 1 handgun when going shooting, makes it much easier to clean it.
>>65312703>>65312435>shits on every decent brand>buys a can from a literal who company >it's not even something unique it's just a traditional baffle stack with annular venting like every other literal who company making cans these days copying the velos
>>65313299I usually do that, but I was taking a coworker to shoot so wanted to bring a different things for him to try. He's buying a gun soon so hopefully I won't need to do this next time
>>65313247m38 absolutely could beBut a straight m38 clone has dookie optics, do better and do a longer rail.>#4Logistics of 308 in your inventory. Would kinda suck to be out of 5.56 and forced to do everything with a 16" 308 with a 4-16 optic.You probably could grab a G3 or FAL in the same role but really should be a 17s>>65313252Cheers>>65313295Larger issue, big cans are fucking ugly going from a 1.5" hub to a 2". They are all a grotesque looking step up
>>65313364>Larger issue, big cans are fucking ugly going from a 1.5" hub to a 2". They are all a grotesque looking step upActually true, the fat cat looks awful as well. The Tisha looks okay with a recessed mount that hides the hubcel shit. I hoping that gen 3(4?) print cans fix the sparkler issue. They already fixed back pressure and flash, it seems plausible. The rhino S almost accomplishes this.
>>65311233>>65307880Funny you should mention AK selectors because you seem old enough to remember when "trigger slap" (hammer overtravel) was a common issue that could be exploited in a way that we call "forced reset" today. There was also tethering the trigger to the charging handle with a shoestring that had a ring on the end which the ATF classified as a machinegun at one point but then backpedaled because they knew it wouldn't hold up in court. This ultimately accomplished nothing but prolonging the SCOTUS affirmation that automatic reset and automatic fire are technically distinct.My crude FRT is pretty much just this: https://youtu.be/_4pxAS9mQCY?t=30
>>65313374>I hoping that gen 3(4?) print cans fix the sparkler issueYeah it's called the inconel tisha.
>>65313374>I hoping that gen 3(4?) print cans fix the sparkler issueHey man just wanted to let you know, its the titanium sparkingStop considering ti cansThanks have a great day
PSA is ending AAC branding for ammo, will now be PSA Ammo. Also shifting lineup to be “lower volume, purpose driven”
>>65313403>PSA is ending AACbased>brandingoh…
>>65313385>>65313383I want a 9oz can that doesn't spark. It'll happen. Just let it happen.Just wait till they can 3d print ti and inconel into the same can.
Why don't they just make the interior diameter of titanium cans slightly oversized to prevent sparking.Unless its the blast itself knocking off microchips of Ti
>>65313425CAT is going to start printing cans using a titanium alloy they call REV-9 that supposedly reduces sparking substantially.
>>65313425When making fireworks, you add titanium dust to get beautiful sparks.>>65313430>Unless its the blast itself knocking off microchips of TiBingo. This is compounded by the DMLS process leaving a rough finish for gas to hit. But even straight billet titanium erodes and sparks. Observe pic related, this is the endcap (lowest pressure part) made of titanium after ~20k rounds of 5.56. It be sparking the whole time.
>>65313430>Unless its the blast itself knocking off microchips of Ti...do you honestly believe its the round striking the Ti baffles that causes sparking?
>>65310721Maybe I’ll finish my Pelican projects this weekend after the range.
PTR found a way to make titanium silencers spark lessEvery single night video I've seen of their ti cans is really good
>>65313444The more organized the pelican, the gayer the contents areThat image proves it without fail.
>>65313364>do better and do a longer railYeah the optic was cool at first when I messed with it but it somehow manages to get mogged by the vcog lmao. Leupold just isn’t that great the more I look at their stuff. So yeah better glass for sure, but honestly I don’t really like longer rails than that>logistics of 308 in your inventoryAh okay that makes sense yeah
>>65313444I just don't see the purope of taking the supressor off of my Rifles anymore unless I share it with another firearm or I'm cleaning it.Made a tiny little backpack .300 and I realized I never bother concealing it or actually putting it into a backpack.It just feels really cool having a PCC sized AR that fires intermediate rounds.But I'll never leave it in my truck, or try squeezing it into one of my bags.
>>65313444Descendent is next to worthless in its own pocket underneath another layer of foam. That foam doesn't breath so no air will be circulated towards it. The sling can be stuck under the buttstock and routed underneath the buffer tube and up in the pocket by the rear sight. That opens up two large cavities that could be filled with more magazines pistol mags or spart parts.
>>65313432>CAT is going to start printing cans using a titanium alloy they call REV-9 that supposedly reduces sparking substantiallyGood. Pretty sure their surge bypass tech already reduces sparking since PSI at the blast baffle is reduced.
>>65312435>That looks atrociously unwieldy.It's not. I mean I wouldn't want to be doing door to door house clearing shit with it, but it's shorter than my 300wm hunting rifle.
>>65313504Dawg , every baffle sparks not just the blast baffle. The B&T XH cans would be sans spark if blast baffle was the only contributor.
>>65313517Do the B&T Ti cans spark badly?I know their stuff is reduced back pressure as well, but I'm not sure if it's the same secret sauce as CAT. I haven't seen a cutaway
>>65313530https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7195NflsTGchttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEBJMZgHsw8
>>65313530If you want low spark, I think the B&T would let you down.Stop buying titanium cans.Go buy a rhodie 6k, kac or similar military focused suppressor. Titanium is for bad companies to pretend that their shit is lighter than it should be.
>>65313028>>65313007Tacsol Axiom is really good, and very serviceable. It's a pretty traditional k-baffle stack but that's all you need for a 22. It has a stainless sleeve making it really easy to get the stack out and comes with an end cap wrench.
>>65313288Just don't.
>>65313555I've had that same can for like 10 years. It's fine, maybe even good. I think I'd get a rugged Occulus though.>>65313536>>65313539Oof. Well I choose to remain optimistic that someone will solve the sparkler problem, and they'll make a lot of money. In the meantime, I'm stuck between the inconel rhodie 6 and rhodie 6k for an 11.5. I can't decide.
>>65313571Rhodie 6k is noticeably higher back pressure than the regular rhodie. You are also locked into using really short muzzle devices since it has a short blast chamber. I like the full size more for an SBR.
>>65313261notice any difference in reliability semi auto with the tiny buffer?>>65313378video is gone you goon
>>65313364>>65313043No more elcan on the 17?
>>65313717Robbed it for the 21
>>65313572Could go Rhino X for that nice mid-size. But it's not as aesthetic as the Rhodie, and it has smaller bypass channels = more backpressurePretty sure the Hesy 556UK is the best though. I feel that choosing a suppressor is way harder than choosing a rifle
Hello /arg/! I am a new AR 15 owner, less than 1,000 rounds through my Ruger Harrier w/Magpull furniture.For about 500 rounds I've used a badly-sighted CV Life amazon airsoft whatever red dot.I'm looking to upgrade my optics game finally so I can really get serious about accuracy and not just learning the gun.

>>65313774Because even shitty cans cost like $1k and you aren't getting that money back
>>65313802Yeah. And you can't really sell suppressors. So if you buy a bad can you're stuck with it for life. You can't give it to friends either. You could destroy it and remove it from the NFA. Has anyone ever been that mad though? I've bought some mediocre cans, but never trash.
>>65313815>Yeah. And you can't really sell suppressors. So if you buy a bad can you're stuck with it for life.Meh, now with $0 stamps its much easier. WGWS took about a 50% loss on his can collection sold a couple months ago.

friend gave me a handguard but my povertypony has a front sight post and I'm a poorfagdo I try to replace it with a new gas block or should I just buy another shitbox upper down the line?
>>65313897personally, I'd build a new upper. but that depends on how much you want to use that rail and how little you want to spend.
>>65313902currently it just has one of the clamshell m4 style handguards so I was just wholly replacing itbudget's probably ~$300 now since I have to pay off a house
>>65313924>$300that should be enough to get a cheap barrel and upper receiver. the only question is if you'll ever want your old FSP upper or not. if not, you could spend that $300 on a nice barrel and swap it onto your old receiver. it's up to you really, but if you're going to swap gas block, I'd get a new barrel too.
>>65313897brother, adjustable gas blocks are cheap these days. I've seen them go as low as $25USD for one.
Anyone running a SIG Romeo 7? About to go buy one for my CAR-15. Put it on the carry handle rail but I think it might be too high to get a decent cheek weld and I don’t want a fucking riser.
>>65313954yeah I'd probably sell the old parts since I'd just stick with a 16" anyway and having two of essentially the same things doesn't seem worth it>>65313957it's not the cost, it's that I don't have a ton of experience with gas blocks and you could easily fuck up the barrel
>>65310726Along with a 47 + dot, its literally all you need in regards to handguns. Only retards will disagree.
>>65313897What handguard did he give you?
>>65313450Let’s cool it with the gay projection. >>65313472Right now that one is shared with another rifle, until I get some other calibers taken care of. I used to have a folding stock 870 in a ukelele bag when I lived in an apt. >>65313495Yeah, that was my hunch, but I’ll figure something out as you suggested. My other cases have it on top. Not like anything is stored in their long term but I did have some work Pelicans get submerged in water for a few days. >Picrel not A2 approved
>>65313897>povertypony has a front sight post and I'm a poorfagCut it off then. The original low profile gas blocks were just front sight posts cut down to just above the area the gas tube is pinned in. Easily done with a dremel and cutoff wheels or just a plain jane hacksaw.
>>65313897Magpul makes handguards for your exact situation. Under 40$, front sight compatible
>>65314008NTA but this is an awful idea
>>65313836>Hessy is better. That mounting system is really goodI agree, their flash disruptor is excellent. Probably the lowest flash can on the market besides maybe the RC4I'm not sold on the ratcheting teeth though. Their claim is that the flashhider is also made of inconel, so it won't wear. But if two equal hardness materials rub together, it will wear out imo. There is no reason why they couldn't put the flash disruptor tech into a plan B / hub mount. It seems like a grift.
>>65314030>hurr awfulll idear saar>posts no example as to why
>>65314038The inner ratcheting teeth are springy and rounded unlike the aac one that are sharp and wear outirregular defense tested these mounts for thousands of cycles its unlikely you'll wear one out in your lifetime

>>65312715>IRA stuff is exactlyI wouldn't envision it exactly though... The economic and trade infrastructure realities of the 1960s-1970s in Ireland vs future United States... not to mention the role of technology. This idea that proximity to the coast would somehow meaningfully contribute to increased capacity for just those geographically local to the coast to obtain various contraband or restricted goods is completely outdated and at odds with the economic and enforcement/security realities we have now, and are even more at odds with the trajectory of those things projected into the future. Like I said originally, unless you're looking at a VERY severe breakdown of the rule of law, a la A24 Civil War where interstate commerce more or less ceases entirely (this is what would be necessary to have the degree of transit security to meaningfully impact the distribution of contraband to only the coastal region)... that just isn't going to happen, not first without many years of Troubles 2049 edition (doesn't involve such simple dynamics as coastal access). >the govt will just smother youOh you're thinking some silly gov vs civ dichotomy.

KAC or RIS otherwise. >>65313044>16.5" medium-ish barrel 5.56 in 2026kys>>65313206Totally fair and I actually started mentally preparing a response full of actual performance critiques of those cans but then I had to run to work. I'll respond in a second (character limit)
>>65313206From the top:YHM Fat Cat suffers from being an older design at this point. Traditional baffle geometry and manufacturing processes, and as such it actually unfortunately doesn't perform well compared to modern 3D printed competition in terms of the backpressureXsuppression product. This wasn't the case even just ~18 months ago. It is nice and cheap at what, $650? The CAT KK at 14.5oz and $1100 is rather expensive for its displacement (4.5" long and 1.6" diam) and isn't actually that quiet. It is soundly bested at muzzle by lots of options.The KAC MCQ-2 Isn't terrible at 12.7oz including mount at 4.5" and ~1.6" diameter, but at $1350 it is ridiculously expensive and given that the mount takes up half the can and that even with KAC's recent progress with their at muzzle suppression performance they're still not in the top 5-10 for being quiet... well I wouldn't pay $1350 before taxes for a loud can. The SoiAdditiveWorks Tisha also suffers from being expensive as shit, $1200 or so, and it is pretty heavy at 15oz without a mount. Yes the at muzzle suppression is excellent, but the fact that SAW has had multiple cans from multiple product lines just break, crack, and fail due to MFG defect... not to mention they KNOWINGLY sold blems which then ended up cracking... Like yikes that is not good performance. >>65313287I overall so far have liked Exigent's attitude. Talking shit on OCL is fine by me also. Calling the ATF is fucking gay. >>65313295>that sucksI wouldn't jump to any conclusions. This is a lot of A2 and I trying to intuit the suppression and backpressure performance just from eyeball analysis of the baffle geometry and having seen a few pixels of suppressors in our time. I'll have the can soon enough and will shoot it and be able to report back. The 5.56 Fatty per Rob subjective tests is just a hair louder than the Tisha. That is impressive, especially given that it is $900, and 2-3oz lighter both in Ti and Inconel versions.
>>65314369What’s wrong with 16.5” medium+ barrel.
>>65313964>it's not the cost, it's that I don't have a ton of experience with gas blocks and you could easily fuck up the barrelare you slow? All you have to do is slide it over the barrel and make sure its straight. Then torque the flash device back. Even at that, you can pay a local gunsmith pocket change to professionally install it.
Opinions? I think the magnifier makes it too bulky.
>>65313295>spill from weapon lightsI assume you meant shadow and IME the bigger issue with suppressor shadow is length, not diameter, and that is a bit of a marginal case complaint IMO. Shadow doesn't create a straight up black zone. Any light worth its salt has enough spill that when indoors the shadow'd area is still lit well enough. But the stronger counterargument is that this effect is just small, especially when considered differentially to say a trad 1.5" diam can that has to be 6.5" long to approach the suppression performance. >5.75" Jaguar 556 Shorty and the RhodieI would go the Rhodie 6K over the Rhodie or the Jaguar can. The Rhodie 6K is comparable at muzzle to the full size, at less weight and length by just being higher back pressure. Even then it isn't a high BP can per se, and you should have adjustable gas anyway so the reduced cost, weight, and length are a no brainer IMO. If it weren't for me working on various 300blk, AK, and .308 projects I would have bought a Rhodie 6K or J depending on weight specs on the J. >Titanium anythingFuck that. Post video of it not sparking. I've yet to see a can that had any Ti baffles of ANY type not produce spark. >>65313328>buys a can from a literally who companyHi yes I consistently for years have almost always sacrificed brand recognition or brand based certainty in performance in order to pursue other aspects of interest. >>65313374>Shot 1>Shot 2I lol'd>fat cat looks awfulYes the fat cat is atrocious looking because of the stupid taper they did. Could have used the volume for the blast chamber but nooo we gotta make it look like shit. >fix the sparkler issueThis will not be done until they stop using Titanium. >>65313378>trigger slap is forced resetNo because you could have a slappy fucking trigger and it wouldn't reset off the disconnector. >>65313385Why is FA posting using your trip?
>>65314426forgot image
>>65314387I might get the Tisha and the rhodie 6k just based off my inflated budget alone.>Totally fair and I actually started mentally preparing a response full of actual performance critiques of those cans but then I had to run to work. I'll respond in a second (character limit)If price is no issue it sounds like the Tisha is somehow the best of the bunch in terms of performance, assuming it can actually last? Am I understanding that correctly.I'm proud of you for making progress
>>65314431>>65314426Eh is that the only optic option?
>>65314436Even the inconel Tisha sparks like a motherfucker somehow
>>65314442Zam so realistically my options are rhodie 6k, kac MCQ-PRT, or cat kk.
>>65314438I was thinking running an ACRO on a low pic mount but I was really hoping the Romeo 7 would look decent and threw the g33 on thee because it lined up damn near perfect and I have nothing else to put it on.
>whaddabout the nutgobbler extra>whatdabout buttplug 6>whaddabutt the poors blacklung kJust buy a SF can you clowns. 3 or 4 prong MD.
>>65314445From personal experience, granted with shit tier ammo like xtac, the rhodie 6 was not great for flash so probably just the kac and cat kk. Not that I have any experience with either of those though.

>>65313425There are 9oz cans that don't spark. B&T Print X Mini 556k was like 8.8oz no mount, all Inconel. AAC Ranger 5 Mini was 9.8oz all inconel. Unfortunately neither lasted longer than a year or so on the market and both are discontinued lol. But bottom line is that we absolutely could have an all Inconel ~9oz 5.56 suppressor, if faggots would start putting gas adjustments on platforms and allow for suppressors to be higher back pressure. 9oz is totally reasonable in that case especially if we allow for a longer can (A2 notice this argument). >>65313447Bullshit. Post vid. >>65313472For transport and or clandestine ops. >>65313514>300wm hunting rifleWell this explains why you consider that poleaxe of an AR to not be unwieldy. Build yourself a nice 7.5" 300blk AR using lightweight components and report back your perceptual shift. Check this video out. He takes a 9" 300blk to 655 yards with supers making consistent hits once the wind hold was figured out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TL8L2-Zd0A&t=16s&start=1125>>65313530All Ti will spark. Ti sparking is a result of poor thermal conductivity and poor thermal diffusion, both the result fundamentally of the valence electron configuration of the Ti atoms and the atomic mass. This is fundamental, and it ain't changing until we ain't using Ti. Maybe, MAYBE some kind of fucking thick coating could do it. Maybe. >>65313571I would go 6k and just manage your gas and at muzzle performance expectations. >>65313572>really short muzzle devicesAngle grinders are $14.99 at harbor freight. >>65313774Rhino X will be discontinued soon mark my words. My buddy bought one. They're not bad, but Ridgeback (to their credit, or perhaps not depending on how you look at it) beat their own product promptly with the Rhodie. Yes the Rhodie is heavier, but it is quieter with less BP. >HesyLol I like that. Yeah I actually have been really interested in their Hesion Bow (gay fucking name) mount. Cans seem ok
>>65314480Honestly I'm starting to think flash hiders are just superior if all you care about is flash suppression. Just buy the rhodie, it sounds nice. I don't really like how it looks though.
>>65314369Well I bring up the Irish example in the sense that the only rebellion that could possible work would have to be very decentralized cells independently conducting their activities with the occasional directive from above. Though this would only really work in some remote part of the country that isn’t like very important. This would be a low level guerrilla war to try and break a piece off, anything else simply wouldn’t work, and even this strategy would be a long shot. But again, nothing else would work
>>65314505why are you fags talking about rebellions and shit? do I need to alert the authorities or...?

>>65314534I can tell
>>65314534yer a peein where?
>>65314500Yeah no duh suppressors are compromising (only marginally) on flash suppression most of the time (usually with bad ammo, apples to apples) to get sound suppression and concussion protection and cheating a lil mv and rpm. The only "downsides" are weight (as with any accessory, so that "downside" applies to optics vs irons, WMLs, grips, everything), a slightly more real downside might be where that weight is, but I mean the strela for example is really pushing it anyway, and again maybe not minmaxxing flash suppression but I mean. C'mon. >>65314510It's called theorycrafting and alt-history and it's BASED. Unironically I like talking about the contextual nature of how we envision certain scenarios lending themselves to certain training priorities and build POUs and shit, it provides credibility or context to arguments and helps us understand, learn. It's what I alluded to, albeit poorly, in a post a couple threads ago about all the nuances that training *can't* really expound on without becoming d&d sessions. Arg however, is a ripe area for that, that can synthesize shop talk and world building in a meaningfully productive way. That's the idea I thought , anyway.

Just ordered a MI two piece drop in to replace it once it gets here, not trying to go overboard with the price put into this pos, it’s just for funsies.
>>65314540Also I thought the Romeo 7 was cool, I wanted something resembling a M4 comp on it. It also came with a kill flash that fit in my actual m4 comp which I really liked.

As a noguns, can someone explain why there are AR 'pistols' and how/why they're different from AR 'rifles'
>>65315501ARs with barrels shorter than 16" are considered SBRs (illegal to have unless you do paperwork) so to bypass it, people put braces on them and call them pistols
>>65315501Literally meaningless ATF rules and gay american laws.>SBRS are illegal>but some marine with ptsd made this thing called a brace and asked the ATF if this is considered a handgun>they said yes>Now everyone is making SBRs with braces as a loophole
>>65314505>rebellion>break a piece off>remote part of the country>nothing else would workAgain... I think you're thinking way too narrowly. Not only too specific, but in this case the specific prediction itself I think is quite unlikely. Consider the "glue-like" nature of modern industrial society and its economic consequences. The conflicts of old give us plenty to learn from, but be careful not to paint too broad a stroke. Simple geographic considerations like "coastal access" and "breaking a piece" off... These are as outdated today as line formations and volley fire was in 1776. And no I'm not "le heckin information 5th generational warefare" posting at you either. I'm still talking kinetic physical destruction of various things...but long (years) before it follows obvious geographic lines, it is likely to be dispersed within various populations and geographies, following what might appear as nearly arbitrary separations (think cartel regional control in Mexico). >>65315310>AKs have longer trigger pull than ARsThey do. If the sear engagement is so short/small that the action by itself just unlocks it... well it didn't exist to begin with functionally. Bump-firing does not equal (DNE) forced reset. It never will, because mechanically they are totally different mechanisms. Consider reference frame transformations and symmetries. In bump firing the trigger itself is un-moving (approximately) and it is the entire rest of the action that moves. I could prove mathematically that this isn't an isomorph of the forced reset case where the action moves AND the trigger is forced to reset. Very brown of you to confuse those two things, IMO. Do they look similar? Yes. When analyzed from an even "larger" more global frame of reference (objectivism) we can see that they're unique and distinct. >>65315496>RC4 sucks assI would say that so strongly. They're just not great value. For all we know all the Rhodie 6 will start degrading in ~8k rounds lol.
>>65315655Yes the point being that it would take many years of kinetic conflict for that to occur, I agree. Also with Mexicos cartel territory, they do tend to follow state lines funny enough, as well as general geographic areas
>>65315655>didn't exist to begin with functionallyThe hammer necessarily resets between rounds. Otherwise, the cam would prevent the primer from detonating unless your firing pin, bolt or carrier are not to mil spec>mechanically they are totally different mechanismsMy "disconnector" exploit is simpler than a trigger cam, sure.>Consider reference frame transformations and symmetries.The shoestring example I posted earlier proves your isomorphic theory wrong because the trigger resets under its own spring force.>Very brown of you to confuse those two things, IMOVery brown of you to think "forced reset" is a technical classification of fire control rather than a registered trademark that was chosen to avoid the term "automatic" in the marketing language and lawsuit against the ATF. Do you also call paper tissue "Kleenex"?

>>65315501>>65315503>people put braces on them and call them pistolsare you retarded? Pistols have different laws compared to rifles. Each state in the USA also has specific laws for either.>can someone explain why there are AR 'pistols' and how/why they're different from AR 'rifles'Commie USA laws exist because they dont want an average citizen to own rifles, (especially short and compact ones), so they make laws to make it more difficult to attain them. If you have any rifle that has a barrel of 16" or longer, it is registered as a rifle. Anything shorter than 16" will need special paperwork, that legally specifies it as a "Short Barrel Rifle" or SBR registration. Now, there have been recent legal cases surrounding this and it had been deemed legal to register rifles with barrels shorter than 16" as a "Pistol" with the accompany paperwork. You don't have to register it as an SBR, so long as you follow some ATF requirements. One being, you cannot shoulder the "Pistol" when firing or use "Rifle" type accessories on it like a rifle buttstock or forward vertical grip. So yes, you can register a short-barreled AR15 as a pistol, so long as its stock had been changed to an "arm brace". It is less restrictive in the USA than an SBR registration, so people go this route. See >>65310987
>>65315952Oh i'm sorry is that not a braced pistol in >>65310987

>>65316034>We're pausing production to increase capacity
>>65316034No, sounds like they're either trying to create more demand via artificial scarcity, or converting production lines for actual military versions for military contracts
>>65316043Then again, they did say temporary so hmmm idk
>>65316021No more sp5???????
>>65316039I mean idk how this stuff works dude, maybe they gotta close down the production lines to add to them?? >>65316043Blows my brains out
I love my mr556a4
>>65315717They follow general geography probably only because legacy political divisions (states) follow said geography. Cartel control often follows existing state/political control lines because of the interplay between cartels and corrupt government. It isn't intrinsic. >>65315773>trigger resets under its own spring forceWhat? No the trigger is being reset against the the trigger spring force by way of the action. This is an FRT mechanism. Not a bumpfire situation. Forced reset absolutely is a mechanical/technical descriptor. The reset is forced by the action cycling. It is precisely this definition/description which makes it unique from a bumpfiring gun. >disconnector exploit From what I understand you've made bump firing easier by removing/reducing the amount of disconnector sear engagement... If you've removed so much material that the cycling of the action just completely disengages the disconnector, yes that is essentially a forced reset trigger, distinct from bumpfiring. >>65315800The LR300blk project has been entirely stalled for several months now since I sold all my rifle suppressors. I have a new suppressor waiting on a F4 transfer and I'll get back to testing and development of the subs/super gas switch once that can clears. Overall it is doing decent. I think I've got around 1200rnds on the ARIC system with no breakages or failures that couldn't possibly be attributed to tuning. >>65315807It does not have a traditional AR buffer. It is a "bufferless" type system, LAW Tactical ARIC. >>65316015>Physical geography will always be relevant to any conflict as long humans are the primary combatants. How relevant is up to debate and I haven't read through the conversation so I'll leave it at that without making undo assertionHonestly good post. I agree overall.
>>65316065>Honestly good post. I agree overallReasonable wuggy time. Very nice.>>65316047Should have told anon that I just heard the gunshot go off in his room.
>>65316065Well no you’re kinda wrong there. The interplay with cartels and corrupt govt doesn’t really mean anything in terms of territory because they’re ALL corrupt, they could do that anywhere. Their territories follow geography because they’re require coasts (smuggling, arms, equipment), valleys (moving drugs) and easily defensible and monitored territory to prevent other cartels from attacking them, and allowing them to attack the others. As such you’ll see the typical cartel dominate a particular region with ideal coasts and transport lanes as well as defensible borders, with little enclaves and exclaves in other areas to take more

>>65316075> The interplay with cartels and corrupt govt doesn’t really mean anything in terms of territory because they’re ALL corruptNo it absolutely does have a geographic/territorial effect. Corruption moves and acts through a system. Different localities, municipalities, states etc are independent systems with various degrees of connection. This means that different cartels will have different territories not intrinsically due to geographic features like rivers/roads/mountains but only as a consequence/result of the interaction between cartels and corrupt governments. Correlation does not mean causation. Cartels in general are not waging pitched battles and do not hold certain territories intrinsically due to the geography defining that territory. Their operational areas are often defined by government permission as a result of corruption, and it is by this mechanism that their AOs appear to follow geography that historically would contribute to military advantage or disadvantage. Consider the actual mechanisms at play when a corrupt government entity interacts with a cartel. It isn't blanket. Agreements differ. Entities differ. The cartels themselves differ. Similarly a conflict in the US would not fall on such simple (conceptually) lines such as legacy geography, at least not intrinsically so. Again, we're very far, if ever, going to see something like A24's Civil War.
>>65316159I own a BRN-4 with 16.5” M27 barrel.
>>65316207Cool but that's not what I asked.
>>65316193Not to sound like an ass but you’re pretty far off there. The corruption situation isn’t how you describe, it doesn’t vary municipality to another, but rather varies based on its proximity to the federal govt. for example, does not matter the locality or municipality, they are all corrupt because no one wants to fight or die in a cartel hit. And the. As you move up the chain to state police, they’re still corrupt but you’ll see them actually doing their jobs more often than not. And then up to the national guard (replaced federal police) as they generally do what they’re supposed to but many commanders and higher level officers are compromised and bought off so that’s where it actually resembles what you describe.> Cartels in general are not waging pitched battles and do not hold certain territories intrinsically due to the geography defining that territory.This actually is also incorrect, they are currently have many pitches battles along mostly stagnant frontlines along the southern jalisco border and the entirety of the Northern Territory due to the war between CJNG and their fight against southern warlords as well as their involvement in the Sinaloa civil war. For example, if you look along the Jalisco Michoacán border, there are entire regions where they’re locked in pitched battles against local cartels and warlords, employing trenches, armored vehicles, drones, mortars, and foreign (often Colombian) mercenaries>Similarly a conflict in the US would not fall on such simple (conceptually) lines such as legacy geography, at least not intrinsically so.maybe not intrinsically but I do think with enough time and escalation, it would take more and more of a focus. But that would take many years and it’s very likely any sort of rebellion like that would just get destroyed or lose support
>>65316211Jesus I need to spell check my shit
>>65316015I too check the etymological origins of a term to verify accuracy in nomenclature. Perhaps you noticed I've been typing "disconnector" in quotes this whole time because it's not actually one at all since there is no disconnect between the trigger and (main) sear in an AR-15 which is probably why Eugene Stoner referred to the hook shaped component as an intermediate sear in his patent: https://patents.google.com/patent/US3045555A/en>>65316065Then I guess the fixed position of your index finger relative to the firearm has to be inside the trigger guard in order for you to consider it bump fire which seems arbitrary IMO.The Founders would probably expect us to disregard unconstitutional laws that the Supreme Court persistently refuses or fails to address and treat anyone who tries to enforce it like red coats but Euro cucks or functional retards don't understand any of this.

>>65316290There’s a few reasons, biggest one being it looks bad. It’s one thing for cartels to be conducting trench and drone warfare in the central highlands, it’s another thing for the govt to be one of the factions fighting there. They’d assuredly win but it looks reaaaaally bad, so why not let them kill each other instead of delegitimizing yourself by getting involved. Another reason is the cartels have a lot of money in the right pockets in the federal govt who will look away and let them do their thing. If they send the army, they’ll do it after the fighting has stopped and territory has changed hands. Another one is political pressure. The current Jew president has made it a campaign promise to bring deaths down. I think the stats showing a 20% decrease in homicides is fake considering the escalation of violence in the last year or two, but if the army is sent to deal with cartels less frequently, it can certainly give that impression
>>65316303Ok.

>>65316234That sure is technical looking!
