It does appear there is a good chance that it will snap anon, the question is do you have the boom boom powder
>>61642540Somalia-spec arquebus looks immensely fun and I would easily shoot it until it took my jaw off in a glorious yet expected barrel explosion.If you were involved in it's creation, nothing but respect. If you shot it, fuck you're braver than me.What's the caliber and how do you usually load it?
>>61642540What's the deal with these things? How are they different than other locks?

I am a eurofag who moved to the states almost five years ago.Started collecting firearms maybe two years ago and it is a lot easier than most people outside of the US think it is.Not as lack of hoops to jump through but how you end up seeing it as any other trinket you buy like a dank bike or decent backpack over in yorup.Went to an antique store and bought a shitty shotgun that needed a lot of work for 75 bucks, ordered a lower on PSA cause the price was right and I wanted to built the classic gulf war M4A1 I saw in media.Had I still lived in europe it might have been a fucking gay coat or something stupid.Now I may or may not far exceed the American average and you don't need to know either, stay in your nogun state/country.
>>61648802>you end up seeing it as any other trinket you buy like a dank bike or decent backpack over in yorupYeah, same in leafland. Once you jump through the initial hoop of your gun safety class and background check, there's nothing stopping you from buying whatever you want on a whim after that. It's easy to end up with a big collection when you don't have to license, register and justify every individual weapon with the bobbies. I've got lots of guns, mostly milsurps, that I just decided I wanted then and there when I saw them on the rack at my lgs
>>61643483It happens to so many dogs that it might as well be. It’s the biggest difference between them and wolves.Dogs, at least while raised by humans act gay as fuck.

>>61653257>AktchuallyI get that the model names move around. As far as I'm aware, their military still hasn't formally adopted 5.56 - 7.62x39 is still standard issue.
>>61653283If they still do they need to get their shit together since as of March of this year they have been in NATO for two decades.
>>61653366I think they got away with it for so long since they don't really participate in joint drills. At least not the bottom level grunts.

>>61650733have you considered the fact you were wrong about crimps influencing ignition?
>>61650743Crimping doesn't make a meaningful difference, I can't disprove your anecdotal experience. Not my fault you're shit at reloading, which is tough to do really.

>>61649568That was more like their copy of a BUK missile if I remember correctly.
>>61649553Why not everything all at once. Visual, IR, UV, active radar and passive radar.
Sayyad-2C is a copy of the US Navy standard missile.
is the turtle tank just a more elaborate version of slat armor?
>>61649355Sheet metal and welded wire mesh?Does this really works against drones?What's next? Plaster and glass wool?
>>61649954Works against the light AT drones yes. But against the more serious AT threats it's completely useless. It mostly means you need two good hits to tank out a tank instead of one.
>>61649355Can't believe Russia is taking towns and territory daily with this thing. Lol
>>61649355"Slat armor" isn't real armor but a "fuze and liner disruptor". Not different from torpedo nets, just another form of passive defense.And no, against FPVs isn't better than a oversized cardboard box because the fuze and shaped charge of FPVs still works.
>>61649967>Works against the light AT dronesso the main most common threat
So when are we getting hologram weapon sights? None of that glass stuff, but make it pop up like princess Leia in Star Wars
>>61651878What's the advantage over a 2d HUD, exactly?
>>61651878Do you know what a hologram even is?You bounce light off of a couple prisms and a bifocal lens, such that the 2D image you're projecting appears 3D.The "glass" you're talking about is the bifocal lens. You aren't going to be able to bounce light off air in a predictable fashion.TL;DR did you even finish your high school mathematics?
>>61652169>>61651878Pic unrelated.
>>616521152 more weeks.
>>61651878Never because that's retarded.>>61652169Hologram isn't the right word, but you can absolutely use high energy lasers to produce 3D images in mid-air. This started getting experimented on almost 20 years ago anon, ie:>https://phys.org/news/2006-02-japanese-device-laser-plasma-3d.htmlBut the whole thing about a glowing volumetric thing in mid air is that... everyone can see it. Like, that's the point. Your enemies will see your glowing mid-air box over your gun the same as you, it doesn't project light in one direction not even in Star Wars. So putting aside practical challenges and energy wastage (because you're projecting light all over the place not just to your eye) it's a fundamentally dumb concept and OP is a faggot yet again.
Truth is the bid was rigged from the start.Teledyne FLIR’s "new" Rogue 1 loitering munition has actually been under SOCOM contract for two years as Ground Organic Precision Strike System Echelon 0-Air (0A). GOPSS 0A is sub-divided into three categories including ‘nano-’, ‘micro-’ and ‘mega-’ sized platforms. Weighing approximately 10lbs, Rogue 1 satisfies the micro category; the other systems are undisclosed. There's also an undisclosed GOPSS Echelon 0-Ground (0G) program.

Thoughts on the gun used? What's your opinion on the damage regarding ballistics?
>>61648312>duginThis shows that so much of the alt-right is just a russian communist thirdworldist psyop. America doesent know it but its fighting a 6 front war on communism against a new communist bloc. Dugin also promotes and thinks homosexuality is good.

>>61646384A: >>61647491>Stop being a niggerB: Why would you order any ER other than some of their ridiculous fixed blades?
>>61651372The general opinion seems to be "better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it". The other people in the class are richfags though so that definitely colors their opinions, I'm just wondering if any old titanium diving knife with a line cutter will do, or if this is the wunderwaffe of knives/tools
>>61651372I don't know shit about diving but if accidental 02 hose cutting is really a thing I wouldn't want a knife at all. If I would want a knife I'd want a real one and not that silly trinket.
I know nothing about knives. Wouldn’t a von karman cross section be optimal for the cutting edge? Like to present the least amount of resistance in moving through shit. Basically a VLD bullet ogive?
>>61652101Google suggests that's a shape that minimizes drag? If so then, well, that kind of drag is one factor if you want to quickly cleave through things (ie too fast for it to just fall apart and open up a path on its own). But that's only one factor involved here. To pass through the knife must also split the material it goes through, since we don't give a fuck about how well it cuts through gas and liquid. Second actual friction between the sides of the blade and the cut sides of the target can play a massive role as well, so sometime sit's better to go the "aerospike" route and spend a bit more effort pushing the target medium aside so contact surface is reduced. And for some kinds of cutting drag simply isn't a major factor. Of course cutting performance alone isn't all that matters either, we want the edge geometry to be both strong and easy to maintain as well.With the importance of all of these factors varying depending on what exactly you're doing with your knife, and even personal preferences, no single geometry will ever rule supreme.
>installing a muzzle device on my ar that requires a crush washer and about 75% of a full turn to index>don’t have an upper receiver block, just a vice>thinking I just layer some rags around the receiver or barrel and torque it downHow screwed am I? I don’t necessarily want to spend money on stuff I don’t need.
>>61648503I did it, quarter turns until it indexed correctly. Took the bolt carrier and charging handle out first. Electrical tape on the wrench helped not to mess up the finish. Barrel and handguard are still straight so it looks like my 200lb ass sitting on it didn’t hurt it.
>>61648482Magpul bev block is 40 something bucks and probably cheaper than your muzzle device. Holds the rifle in place by the locking lugs to prevent your index pin from shearing/crumpling up the threaded aluminum area/twisting you upper. It also holds your lower in place. You may not need it but it and a good vise are the difference between working on shit like a crumpled monkey trying to hold onto shit with your elbows and back of the knee or standing/sitting upright like a normal human.
>>61652089Seconding the magpul block. I used towels in a vise until I eventually bent an upper. I won't tell you not to do that because I did it for a while and got away with it and it's probably the best poverty option. But you will eventually break something, you are doing it the wrong way. I think a 3/4 turn on a crush washer shouldn't be a problem though.
You don't need a tool at all.I had never fucked with a muzzle brake before until a friend of mine gave me his upper that needed work.Just doing the back and forth thing allowed it to eventually get further and further until it lined up.No tools, just a wrench and me holding/putting my weight on the rifle.If you plan on doing it every day buy shit for it but I doubt it will be worth it.

>>61645848>>61645854>>61645866This is why giving these gay coconut high cut helmets with integral rails and mounts to anyone is stupid. They don't fucking use them for anything except as a basic ballistic helmet because they don't have comms or thermals or night vision. It's done entirely because its cheaper than a full sized helmet.>>61646661They don't get those issued and its too expensive to buy them.
