>>42616142Something about not trusting the yellow man and how he does not like the yellow man. Most of it was incoherent because he was constantly shitfaced. The cops would always show up because he played music all night with the volume cranked up to the max.Cops could never talk to him either because all he'd talk about was Tiananmen Square.One time he got jumped and got the shit beat out of him because no one could sleep.Of course I never tried to stop him from making noise. I let him do whatever the fuck he wanted.

An Illinois man who had a shotgun booby-trap that killed a neighbor last year was convicted on Thursday of murder and another charge, according to media reports.A Union County jury found William Wasmund, 48, guilty of first-degree murder and aggravated battery in the death of Jeff SpicerProsecutors said Wasmund rigged the shotgun to a rope connected to the door of a shed on his property so the weapon would fire when the door was opened. The discharge killed Spicer as he tried to enter the shed, authorities said. A man who lived nearby found Spicer's body on Wasmund's property on Sept. 16, 2018,Wasmund's defense attorneys said their client had complained of thefts on his property and suggested Spicer was there to steal. Lawyer Thomas Mansfield argued Spicer caused his own death by ignoring "no trespassing" and "do not enter" signs and breaking the lock on the shed door, he said.Special Prosecutor Matt Goetten said it didn't matter why Wasmund set the gun to fire, only that he did so -- something that ultimately cost Spicer his life.https://www.foxnews.com/us/illinois-man-convicted-in-booby-trap-gun-killing
>>42609376I never entered any non-abandoned structures as a child.
>>42615716This logic is perfectly correct. Unassailable.
That's the first time I've heard of one of those killing someone other than the idiot who rigged it up.
>>42607011>literally broke the fucking lock to get in to someone else's property to steali think booby trapping is fucking retarded and wrong, but in this case, he should not have been charged
>>42615458>In todays society criminals have more rights to your property, body, and life than you do.No they don't.

Threadly reminder that meat stops bullets better than bone. Eat your veggies, drink your milk, and hit the gym.
>>42610812Idk why all the hate are you a dick of a namefag or something? Pic is oddly satisfying, evenly displayed and my add can appreciate all the little bells and whistles you've tossed in. Is the stealth recoil spring worth buying?
>>42616191>I think he’s a nigger.
>>42611505And we just went past the poorfag threshold.
What are some games you guys approve of. Right now I play Tarkov and Arms but I'm looking to expand
>>42616177>Games are supposed to be fun, and Tarkov simply is not because there is good way to just fuck around or even practice.I half agree. Tarkov is an all or nothing game. You either absolutely love it or you absolutely hate it. Its kinda the Norm Macdonald of FPS.
>>42606833FarCry 5 was good. The forced captured/bunker story missions were kind of shitty, but the world was big and beautiful. I don’t know if it’s really /k/ beyond having guns to shoot.
>>42616177who cares about losing gear when a single 1x1 item can net you 100k?
>>42616210this. Interchange basement run with your scavs and its a consistent 150-300K per run. Once you figure out how to make consistent money the game is infinity easier. Also, get over the gear-fear. If you always run the best shit you can your chances of winning increase exponentially. I see people complaining about being dabbed on by a thicc boi and its like "well, you decided to go in with trash armor and trash ammo... what do you expect?"
Gentlemen,I need advice on deciding my next purchase.Im debating between a bolt/semi 308 and a bolt/semi 300.Either Savage Axis 308 or M305(Canuck here) or Remington 770 300 WM or Browning Bar 300.Ive watched ballistic test after test,hunting video after video,Ive also taken down deer with 308 and SKS.Is it worth going up to 300?Is it that much better than 308?Im looking for any opinion from availability to reliability to why would I wonder beyond the 308.Thanks in advance.
>>42614827A good cat is a dead cat
>>42615811Oh shit are we still doing the edgy animal abuse posting? Wow that brings me back.
OP here308 va 30-06 vs 300 vs African DG rifles vs 270 so far?Would it be wise of me to get a Savage 110/Axis with a medium grade bushnell/vortex in 30-06 and carry a backup shotgun with 3" magnum slugs (ive got mossberg 500 and 930)?One of my paranoias is to be in the bush and run into a clusterfuck like a brown bear or wolves or some other shit and not have enough firepower to at least take some of them with me.30-06 has more powder and seems to be almost as abundant as 308,hits a bit harder too.What loads are good for moose?
>>42613256you remind me of boomers who hunt whitetail deer <100 yards with a .270
Never take advice from anyone who thinks you cant take a moose with a 308. People used to use the old 6.5 military rounds all the time with great success. Those are slower, lighter, and smaller diameter.

>>42616140I can't find the press release anywhere which really makes me think this is complete bullshit. Electric motors have heaps of advantages for military applications but the energy density of batteries is just too shit.
>>42616182>Electric motors have heaps of advantages for military applicationsThis. The South Africans are toying with a hybrid power-pack for their Recon vehicles - the idea being you power over long distances with your usual gas engine and then when its time to do spooky shit you switch over to your near silent electrical engine. Unironically, hybrid engines have a huge role to play in terms of military applications where noise signatures are a consideration.
>>42616182There's multiple reports that he made the remarks in a speech at the DSEI in London, but I haven't found an actual release or transcript.
Gone are the days when men tabbed 30 miles over the Falklands with 58 Pattern stuff and then attacked at the other end.
>>42616196Sounds like how early submarines worked, using deisel engines for the long stretch and switching to batteries for the actual engagements.

throw out ideas even if they're shit or not developed, if a whole bunch of other people also want it there's a good chance it'll get made

Aim point PRO
>>42615498>just visual clutterImagine being such a smooth brain you use a red dot with one eye open.
Optics Planet has similar reviews as amazon users, pic related.The biggest complaints are:2011 design, old technology is oldBlue tintPoor field of view compared to newer technologies.Weird battery is hard to find.Not ruggedized.To me, the one area that stands out is 2011 technology, it doesn’t mean it was a bad, but there might be something better.
Eotech>Aimpoint
>>42616141Daynoods, you cheaped out on your truck and bought chink shit. Don't go preaching quality while a Toyota key sits in your pocket.
>>42613276You do realize that PRO isn’t shorthand for professional right? It’s an acronym that stands for Patrol Rifle Optic retard.
The time it takes to load an 8-round stripper clip into an M1 Garand is far faster than trying to jostle and rock in the magazine of modern rifles, to the point where stripper clips are arguably more combat-effective than magazines. Reload time is everything, and anything over the standard 20 rd magazine on a rifle is unwieldy for little benefit other than suppressive fire. If I were to field infantry units at a low budget, semi-automatic stripper clip loaded rifles would honestly be a better pick
>>42615814Jesus where do you even buy such low quality bait.
>>42615836Imagine believing this. Imagine just trying to maneuver without a base of fire. Imagine calling people out for poor training while suggesting stripper clip fed rifles. Imagine never owning a gun
I have and shoot my Garand as a historical artifact. My HBAR is more accurate and easier to reload.The Garand is obsolete for a lot of good reasons.
>>42615836No. You’re wrong. Suppressive fire is current western military doctrine. It keeps the enemy from moving so ordnance from fast air or artillery or rotor wing can destroy the enemy. It’s a monetarily very expensive way to fight but the payoff is it’s extremely low risk.
I feel like something like the ruger 10/44 is inherently the best feed/load system for combat.
>https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/461419-graham-us-should-consider-strike-on-iranian-oil-refineries-after-attack-onIf the Americans and Saudis decide to try and cripple Iran's oil producing industries would the Iranians be able to fend off the attack?
>>42615948and to further back anons point Russia, China India, Europe, etc all these places are interconnected to each other so they have deal whatever geopolitical shit flinging is happening while the US can sit back and laugh at everyone like a post WW2 kind of thing. The example is here. Everything going on between Yemen and Saudi Arabia has almost no effect on the US but could deeply effect other major counties that rely on Saudi oil.
>>42612786Are you saying we couldnt track a warship off our coast? Shadowing foreign boats is common in all oceans. Thats like saying if a Russian bomber in the 70s used a stand off nuclear cruise missile 100 miles of the cali coast we couldnt possibly prove it was the USSR
>>42612957Shadowing a boat =/= attack. China follows us all the time in SE Asia without incident. Iran has made boat trips to US waters before and was shadowed. Its very standard procedure and has been done for decades. That way, if a boat DOES do something, you can immediately respond.
>>42615259In Operation Preying Mantis we btfo a hefty chunk of Iran's surface fleet and they just took it. Any attempt on the Straight will similarly end poorly for Iran. We have no need to invade, just rough them up to the point they agree to stop whatever it is that pisses us off. Then its back to normal. China may even go for some back room deal to keep Iran's regime around in exchange for not intervening on the ground, and thats if they truly feel the oil is threatened.
>>42612767The problem with deterrence is that Iraq, Libya and Syria have shown that attacking America carries the same consequences as not attacking America.
Why doesn't the military issue cheap suppressors to troops as standard issue?
>>42608300So, what model is it? Or did you build it?
>>42598171>An acog is like $1000Yeah, for you
>>42615559It's a black aces tactical PS30. They also make .223 ones and .30 Cal ones for AKs.
>>42608194Actually hearing loss is immediate. It is a result of physical damage.
>>42598181>>42599151They could be but they won't be. The trial program(2017) that >>42598264 mentioned found that equipping a battalion of 800 men would cost about 700,000. They're suppressing everything except probably sidearms, even the m2s. I dunno how many small arms a battalion has, but even if its 1200 for those 800 men, they're paying 600$ per suppressor. Even if they need 2 suppressors per man its 450 per unit.
