>>48107325Ya, buy we're getting the surp. If they make as they need it, that means no surp.
Wouldn't it a lot better if instead of the ranger regiment existing. We simply replace every dismount reconnaissance troop within the cavalry squadron of every IBCT with a ranger company? You could also have independent ranger battalions to be used in a similar vain to how independent tank battalions were used in WWII. Wouldn't this be a much more effective use of rangers than just having an independent ranger regiment that spends most of its time either pulling security for real SOF or just doing swat raids on 14 year old Taliban opium dealers?
lol delta does what it takes a 100 rangers with only 5omg its delta force
why would you fight for a country that circumcises infants without anesthesia and doesn't have free healthcare and imports millions of subhumans and destroys white small to middle businesses?
>>48105416>lets let one section of the military get good at combat and let everyone else just stand around doing nothing.
>>48109221>hey even though we’re reducing troop numbers let’s send in the B-Team and divert them from training for the emerging near peer threat so they can get some reps in doing raidsWow, what a dumb idea.

Looking to learn how to use the sword and looking for advice on where to start. Also sword post so post your swords or favorites
>>48096872It should be pointed out that this hideousness is very historically accurate.Beauty and elegance wasn't much of a priority when it came to these things, most of them were intended to be cost-effective, first and foremost. The king of Norway imported over 8000 of these things in 1589 from southern Germany, Switzerland and Austria - enough to arm a good chunk of the country's male population
>>48107286Perhaps by mixing the shittiness of Windlass with the awfulness of Patton swords, you'll get a reality-breaking combination of terribleness that somehow winds up being alright

Just went down the rabbit hole as nugget food is rare and expensive in my country. Seems straight forward, ish. How's the Lee Breech Lock Challenger kit for a beginner?Also, reloading general, I guess.
>>48108951Here take my dubbz, have a good day.
Get the Lee classic turret kit if you can not much more expensive and 10 times the value you just omit the index rod and rotate by hand till you are comfortable
>>48109092Can't get that where I live. Can get the Deluxe Challenger Kit, though, might spring on that instead.
Great kit don't forget you need ref. manuals good set of mics bullet comparators mes yr bullets for the ogive not the tip take the time to fully understand how you are working the brass from start to finish and back to startsmall base dies for gas guns is a mustbe sure to teach someone else as soon as you learn the ropes
also don't work with out a case length / headspace gauge
It's the best striker fired pistol. Simple as.
I like mine

>Vista Outdoors, the parent company of ammunition brands Federal, CCI, Blazer, and Speer (among others), announced during an earnings call last week a yearlong backlog of ammunition orders worth $1 billion.>“We currently have over a year’s worth of orders for ammunition in excess of $1 billion,” CEO Chis Metz said during the Nov. 5 call, calling the backlog “unprecedented.”Dont you see? Its not coming back this timehttps://www.gunsamerica.com/digest/vista-outdoors-announces-1-year-1-billion-ammunition-backlog/
>>48109205>>$1,000,000,000+ in back ordersThat's value of the finished product, not the profit they'd make.>>won't spend $10,000,000 on a new plant to fulfill orders faster >>won't even spend $1,000,000 on tooling to put in a warehouse and convert it into a production plantNumbers from your ass without any idea of how much those investments would help. Also, as other people have been saying repeatedly in this thread, primers are a major bottleneck right now and that's not something you can build new production capacity for easily and cheaply.
>>48107556Especially when we have this same thread every other day and basic concepts are explained. Like holy fuck it’s not hard to figure out.
>>48108155It is a feedback loop. The only way to stop panic buying and return to normal is if people stop panic buying and realize they have plenty. But the best way to protect your own interests in a run on something is to panic buy and buy whatever you can because you don’t know when it’s coming back. It’s a vicious cycle.
>>48109226Probably have to fill military and LEO contracts first. But the amount of money to be made on the civilian market would be too much for any company to pass up
>>48108404>This is the death of the civilian arms market and they're too stupid to see it.No. Demand is not going to be an issue. There are more guns and gun owners than ever. They are becoming more popular. The country is becoming more unstable. Guns will be in high demand for a long time. It may be the death of recreational shooting because of regulation but not because people just don’t want to ever again.
So over the weekend, I bought a 29-3 44 mag for about 750. Everything in shop seemed fine, the action was smooth and lockup good with acceptable cylinder gap. I bought it and came back a week later cuz out of town.I took it and sat down in my car to leave, dry fired once to verify again that it was working and the snap sounded weak. Wtf? I go to pull back the hammer,and that shit is locked up hard. The trigger also locked in place. I took it back to the shop but they said they couldnt look at it till a few days, and this was a 2 hour drive from my place already. Called smith today and they said estimate for repair is 3 months with a 6 month completion est.What would you guys do in this senario? S/w has horrendous customer service, And i feel like theyre gonna fuck it up or im gonna wait a year till I get this shit back. Also not sure if I should sell it at a loss or see it through and hope s/w techs can do their job
>>48109149>t. buttblasted glock owner becoming aware that it stovepipes if you look at it wrong
>>48109208Lol, if you shoot enough you will learn that anything can fail, kid.
>>48109149>Also congrats on being disillusioned on revolver reliability.The 29-3 was produced from 82-88, it could have changed a dozen bubba hands in that time, i wouldn't blame the revolver first thing.
>>48109216SEETHING
>>48109219>a dozen different bubbas filling away at the insides at different times in the guns lifePoor desecrated thing should just be put down at this point

>>48108686>You just keep doubling down on making a fool of yourself with those pictures. Maybe you should do a little basic research on the constraints of gelatin as a bullet testing medium, or just stop posting pictures all together.So you posted a chart regarding wound volume in gel >>48108313 and now you're whining that gel is invalid.This right here already exposes how pathetic you people are.>nor is that in any way relevantIt is relevant - considering that people are throwing accusations of not understanding the subject at each other, and one of them is too fucking retarded not to recognize ball vs jhp tracts in gel.>a 9mm apologist engaging in disingenuous argumentation by dismissing a point for a reason he then admits he knows is incorrect.There's no dismissal, you're just looking for a cop out. I was accused of moving the goalposts. I didn't. You PURPOSEFULLY misunderstood my comment to make it seem I was the one moving the goalposts. If you have to play dumb to score points in an argument, i just makes you look dumb. Come back with an actual point.>This effect applies equally to both rounds, ergo the .45 will still offer an increase in PWC over the 9mm which is proportional to its increased frontal area of the projectile.Prove it. What is the .45 ball effective frontal area?>Prove that a significant increase in hole surface area(ergo in peripheral bleeding and flow rate of maximum possible blood loss) somehow really doesn't matter.Wrong. It's your burden to prove that the difference between effective frontal areas matter. You're pretending that effective frontal area scales linearly with no evidence.
Reminder if you cherish your life you won't use 9mm. Gel isn't a human, and 9mm has never in its history had good real life outcomes. Video related, guy takes five or six rounds of 9mm, and still gets out of his car and turns around. Had he not been sober that cop would be dead. Theres hundreds of accounts of druggie taking dozens of shots before dropping, both in the states, and overseas by soldiers. Fact is 9mm, can't handle bone, can't handle clothing or even cheap chink body armor, can't handle anything but soft tissue, and all around underperforms. If your goal is to wound, then look no farther.
