Why are people so against it? Is it because 97% of gun owners cant raise a 10lb rifle up for more than 30 seconds?
>>61514657Everyone is sticking with AR platform because that's what burgers use and everyone wants parts commonality. Burgers use ARs because it just werks and it's been long enough to have all its quirks polished and there's a variant for every purpose
>>61515926>because its a worse AR10It btfos any AR10 the military has ever fielded.>offers nothing compared to the other entries into the programAside from an operating system that isn't retarded and isn't a shitty bullpup no one wants. Also the machinegun packaged with it btfos the other contestants completely non-competitive offerings.
>>61513832>Watched the video>2.5-3 MOA with match ammoHoly shit lmao. Imagine trying to land a hit on a tiny chink 600 yards away with this thing with EPR ammo after the barrel has seen 6000 rounds.
>>61515930>Everyone is sticking with AR platform because that's what burgers use and everyone wants parts commonality.But there is no parts commonality, most of them are not using ARs but HK416s. Nobody is swapping parts between eachother.They want ARs and HK416s because it is a simply superior firearm and a vastly superior manual of arms to all others ever created.
>>61515719go through barrels faster than my dad goes through wives?
>30-06, 308, 280/7x64, 270, .338-06, any of those will do>a fixed power scope with magnification below 10 or a lightweight variable scope >22 inch long and ~.600 thick barrel>CRF bolt>stock doesn't make difference as long as it's done well and not too heavy, be it wood or polymerDo you really NEED anything more for large game and recreational shooting than that?
i got me a 3030 and some 20 year old ammo what are you after???
2011 guntubers: Guy shoots gun wearing t shirt maybe some camo pants, smiles for the camera, tells a corny joke2025 guntubers: Guy (a civilian) shoots gun in full cosplay, tells you if you NEED x to be preparedWhat happened?
>>61512912>We need to be more prepared these days.Yeah for what? What do you do for a living that you think some cunt like you pricking about with small arms is suddenly going to rule the wasteland instead of just getting popped in the back of the skull because you're an annoying fuck
>>61515846to be fair, we don't know if GarandThumb did classified stuff. my current theory is that he did in fact see combat, did classified shit, and has been recruited by spooks as part of their new wave propaganda effort to get more GenZ interested in the military/firearms/etc. which does translate to higher enlistment numbers. it's part of a multi-prong strategy involving guntubers who are "trad" and young zoomer thots like picrel to reel in the coomers
>>61515891anon we virtually know each other via this shitpit after all these years. I don't think either off us are impressed by people claiming secret squirrel status. I've killed a fuck ton of people (which I mainly regret) but he's not teaching long range precision or antique arms because he's selling bullshit to shit gobblers. Muh plate carriers low drag no kevlar muh Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, muh red dot etc. he should fuck off to Ukraine do a few tours get it out of his system and then fuck off and get a real job as an EMT somewhere.
>>61515814He served 12 years during the height of the GWOT. It's statistically impossible to not be deployed without actively looking for ways not to be.
>>61515914sorry but this is actually one of the few threads on /k/ that isn't about Ukraine right now, let's try to keep it that way
Do you like my 1886 in 45-70? it's taken 3 deer so far with hand loads. hoping to get a moose one day
>>61515928
>>61515928put your flag on your truck, chickenshit nigger.
>>61515938i plan to. please stop calling me a welfare queen. aka zogbot US military member
>>61515834Turn in all your guns at a buyback and then drive down to the city and set yourself on fire in front of an embassy, I heard that triggers them big time.
>>61515947do it NOW and post a picture

>>61496724I want to see this burn
>>61510452Well I'm one of the probably few GWOT vets still rattling around but there was a period of my life were people really enjoyed throwing grenades and improvised explosives at me. As was the fashion at the timeSo the short list of fragmentation grenades (individual)>metal shrapnel in left shin>set on fire with molotov- lower legs>rifle round hit gas-port and tube on rifle, fragments into left hand and middle finger>large cut across bottom of chin from shrapnel>splinter next to right eye>splinter in left side of chin>Left arm and rifle set on fire from petrol bomb>top of right ear chunked out by rifle round or grenade (not sure)>3 grenade splinters in my arse, because everyone gets it eventually in the buttThen finally on my last 'milk run' tour in Iraq 2008 some US marines were running escort for my truck as I was transporting EOD team out to unfuck something or other. They got hit, we pushed through to cover and decided that we couldn't let them burn to death so my Sgt and I ran back to pull the three surviving guys out of their hummer. Got blown up by an RPG strike which filled my back and right shoulder full of shrapnel which was my last time in a warzone. Did a year in an alphabet department but didn't like office life, did some engineering jobs, married a nice lady and we decided to go to my farm to raise our kidsFinished a tour in the UK training Ukrainians for 12 months, I would like to have fought there for one last hurrah but my knees are gone to shit and my lower back is pretty ratshit as well. Plus once you have a family your priorities change
what else can you do if your depots run out of soviet rust buckets https://nitter.poast.org/Jonpy99/status/1784519287291384213
Why would someone ever waste a drone on a motorbike?
>>61510746Shin Bet is the ones responsible for intelligence regarding Palestine, not the Mossad. And Netanyahu's little government crisis made it so the government was too busy trying not to collapse to notice what was being planned for them on top of focusing its assets on the West Bank and not Gaza.

>>61515849>no one should be posting white men getting executed by a bunch of islamists no matter who they are.Agree, good thing no white people were hurt in that clip, only russians
>>61515890>gunshots in the backgroundtis perfect
>>61515875you're a retarded nigger. Putin had everything he needed out of Ukraine since 2014-Donbass war made Ukrainian petrochemical reserves basically uninvestable, ensuring Russia remained the primary European energy supplier-Crimea secure and no way for any Ukrainian leader to trump up approval for an attack on it-Insurgency on its territory preventing integration into western defense organizationsThat was almost everything of value for Russia in Ukraine. The human capital was vanishing and is still vanishing anyways. All they needed was Ukraine to not join NATO, not develop its gas reserves, and not contest Russia's control of the black sea. 2013 was a fucking masterstroke. I thought Putin was a genius after it. But 2022 negated all of this. There wasn't even a pressing need to act. Donbass war largely went cold which was fine, as long as there was occasional minor agitation western countries weren't going to put money into Ukrainian energy resources, Ukraine was not going to be let into NATO. Zelensky was elected as a moderate candidate on the Russian question and was likely to lose reelection. There was basically 0 risk of Ukraine going more westward. Now Russia has fucking depopulated the pro-Russia parts of Ukraine and created the banderist terror state of its imagination on its border. I cannot think of a single more fucking retarded action in the history of eastern europe.
>>61515746Sorry, but TZD will continue until morale improves
>>61515931mucho texto TZD>Verification not required.
Is the US Army finally going to become a peer to Russia's now that we're copying their tactics?
>>61515917>Posting a two-year-old articleIt amazes me every time how you subhumans never learn.

>>61507683Very true>>61508345Infantry should also double as police officers. There is no need for us to have 50+ seperate police departments, especially since niggers and illegals are turning major cities into warzones. Did you know that cops have more combat experience than most infantry?
>>61511602>in my countryStay where you are. We don't need anymore parasites in the US. And no, a foreigner should never be an officer in a foreign country's military. You start at the bottom as an E1 grunt.
>>61510863>>61510967The only reason I'd get a degree now would be to be an officer. I'm older though, 24. No degree, just certificates, I work in medical and want the opposite of what I'm doing. With a short service and degree, I'd be 31 or 32. I think that's too old for USMC, but maybe I could commission in the Army after a degree. I'd prefer some sort of combat arms as a career
>>61510976sorry, I clicked the wrong post above you. direct here >>61515910

>>61514473No, I'm just not some fucking nerd who thinks everything boils down to economic equations. MacNamara, you're supposed to be dead.
>>61515088thanks

>>61515818first time here?
>>61479940What’s the best way to acquire a decent AK74 kit without paying out the ass on Jewbroker for one? Should I just part it out and buy the core components (trunnion, bolt, carrier) first? Anyone know where I could acquire them? Kinda want to do an East German AK74 clone, but don’t want to pay the exorbitant prices for a complete kit.
>>61515863nah i just love anastasia shes the hottest if not the second hottest person in the world
>>61515882mhm.
>>61515921mhm.
Does anyone who has served in the military here have interesting stories that come to mind about their time in?
>>61514943No repercussions?I would have been scared as fuck.I got a few>an officer beat up a conscript<he is permanently denied promotion>an officer can run a cooper test over 3km>while wearing a gas mask>an officer wanted to quiet down the mess hall>he shot at the ceiling
>>61514887>>"you two are going to walk from here to the gas station with trash bags and you arent out processing until theyre full"Man he let you off real easy and you still didn't do it lmao
>>61515211As I said, i was a shitbag E4 and getting out anyways, I just didnt care anymore. Also had a cunt of a female sergeant who tried to give me an LOC because my shower had 4 inches of black water in it even though i reported it to CDM every day for 6 weeks. I told her I wasnt going to sign it, I wanted to talk to the ADC and that I was getting out anyways so if she wanted to push the issue to go for it. She got mad as hell and stormed off
>>61515123Nope the next day we all had a good lol over it. The other instructors told him that they put me up to it so i didnt get smoked for it. Had some bad times, had some good times
>>61511901>>61511973tell some more boi
Today we're going on a field trip to see some of the shining examples of our militia's cutting-edge armory. From clueless boomers to ghetto drive-by fodder, it's time to see what the low speed high drag operators are doing.Step 1: Go to Amazon, search some generic shit like "tactical light" or "sniper scope"Step 2: look at the reviews of the cheapest, most mall ninja shit you seeStep 3: go to the picture gallery in the reviewsStep 4: post your findings and search query hereFor example: "tactical lazer"
>>61506747>You don't get it bro>Its a grip AND a bipod!
>>61506767>Springfield pistols>American flag on the receiverBoomer
>>61512294Oh yeah, those CVLife and various noname brand bipods are knockoffs of an old Harris IIRC. Curious where you get to use your bipod innawoods though; I have to use an adjustable tripod as there's nothing to put the bipod on except the rare huge log in the perfect position.>>61512814My Dead Air Mask HD was ~$470. I forget what my other one was, I think that was like $399 since everywhere hides their price when it's out of stock. For hunting or a need to be real quiet I highly recommend the Mask due to lack of first round pop. It's really really good in that category and very quiet too. Chuck some CCI SV in your gun and it's stupid quiet and even runs semi autos.
>>61514192Looks like a Gamo swarm. The text gets cut off but you can see "Gam-". That texture is 100% Gamo too; rough as fuck. Actually a pretty neat air rifle. Probably >>61510129 or more likely the gen 2 like pic related. Can't figure out which it really is though; the hump for the magazine looks weird compared to what I'm seeing online.
>>61512127I only got my dad into guns a couple years ago and I try so hard to explain what's actually good, point him at reliable resources, etc, but you let that man into an LGS unsupervised and he will immediately gravitate to the most cringe boomer shit on earth. and god help him if there's a fellow boomer behind the counter or a cross on the wall somewhere because he'll fall for basically anything they tell him. literally just last month:>hey dadanon, did you end up getting that glock like we were talking about?>well, anonson, I was going to but...>(I die a little inside immediately)>I wound up getting this neat little pistol that's like a glock but better in every way!>(I reach for a bottle of whiskey as my poor dad rattles off the LGS shyster's entire springfield XD sales pitch)
