Will this catch on? To me it seems ideal for CC. Everyone wants the ballistics of 9x19, as much capacity as possible, and as small a frame as possible. Clearly these three demands conflict with each other. 30 Super Carry satisfies these requirements better than 9x19, .380 ACP or anything else. I could see 30 Super Carry growing in popularity with something like .380 phasing out.
>>58427098>Will this catch on?I don't really know of any round catching on without an agency of some kind adopting it first. I don't know of any and assume none have adopted the .30 Super Carry.This argument excludes rounds based on other cartridges to the point of requiring only a barrel swap.
>>58431773It's designed to work in current 9mm frames. The problem is you can't make an extractor that reaches, you need a new slide for this round. I still think it's a good idea, the current 1.5 stack mags for cc guns like the 43, 48 and p365 would be double stack so your newer, smaller cc gun gets capacity more like a G19.
>>58432536A Glock 48 with a thinner slide and higher capacity sacrificing terminal ballistics would be a very compelling EDC. Which changes nothing in regards to the problem of not having any market share. Once a round meets a certain percentage of market share it's good to go in my opinion but until then it's at risk of evaporating. I have no idea what that percentage is but someone could look at all attempts and probably find the line that separates the rounds that stayed and the rounds that didn't.
>>58432636Adoption percentage/quantity? Could be tough to find accurate statistics.
Congratulations /k/, you are gifted a are magical staff that allows you to summon 4 loyal military related beings that will follow your exact orders and are given all of their guns/gear/ammo that they require. The catch is that they cannot speak a language you understand and are only around for 12 hours then they disappear for 36 hours before you can summon them again. What current (or past) country would you overthrow using them?
>>58422792>>58428727>>58428755Google translate utterly destroys this handicap Even if your phone somehow didn't work, because you don't want glowies potentially finding out something fucky is going on, there are third party and open source translation software you can download and use offline, usually more accurate for well known languagesYou could even choose a phonetically close language to English and type out what you think they're saying and they could nod or something, even saying yes or no because those words would be easy to teach/learnNot to mention if you have a friend who understands the language or if you hired a translator online, or you yourself just spend time to learn some of the language if would be a lesser handicap ALSO, and most fucking obvious, you could literally just have them type into a fucking language translation software themselves, and they could even adjust for any small misunderstanding that may arise from slightly incorrect translation. You talk and hand one your phone, EZ.Should've just made them mute to make it slightly inconvenient to communicate, or just made them speak a non-human language, or made them malfunctioning androids

Now that the dust has settled and we've seen them being used in combat, what system is better?
>>58433002>draw a circle with a 240km radius around the s400. that is the advertised effective range. now draw your 150km recorded max range as a circle centered around the same s400Read this very slowly: 150km is the longest confirmed range of a ukranian aircraft being shot down. Not the longest confirmed range of the missile>b-b-b-ut planes are flying inside 240km all the time!!Source?
>>58433024You understanding of the English language is clearly insufficient to continue this conversation. I said even the simplest of explanations would elude you and I was correct. I will leave you with one final explanation for why I considered the Russian systems to be overrated (again, dumbass, not shit systems, just overrated ones): before this war, it seemed that the presence of Russian SAMs would present a grave tactical dilemma for any Western air force that had to go against it in a hypothetical near-future war. Now, it is plainly evident that all the Russian SAMs in the world would hardly be a speedbump for a well-equipped, well-trained air force.

because even if you're pretty sure the violent crazy retard down the street keeps his rifle in a bucket of water and that it's a rusty inoperable piece of shit you don't go and provoke some violent crazy retard. Because ok maybe his gun is a rusty piece of shit but if it DOES work where does that leave you? With a fucking hole in your skull that's where.
>>58430962Guy's legit, he is one of the fuckers who was on Tiananmen Square live and on the bombing of Belgrade too.
>>58430407It seems to me that the intel community was genuinely caught off guard by Russian incompetence in the war. It's arguable western intelligence (ignoring the Nazi's) have always overestimated Russia's capabilities. I mean western doctrine is expect the worst and be pleasantly surprised so that makes sense. But western intel seemed to be saying that Russia was gonna win in three months. I'm sure they knew about the corruption, but not how completely infested the system was. Which tells me they weren't taking advantage of it. But I bet you the CIA is having an absolute field day with this war. Like this is gonna be looked back upon as a golden age of spycraft by american intel.

In the Zaporizhia directionBetween the heavy artillery losses Ukraine claims to be inflicting on the Russians/alleged shell shortage, are we witnessing the collapse of the legendary Russian artillery advantage in real time?
>>58432050Easily of the past 80 years.
>>58428258>What kind of war is itWell, you had your fun ziggers, now it's time to be on the receiving end and take it all deep in the ass.Or did you think you can just shell other people and not getting shelled in return at some point?
>>58432050Eh russia did it all the time throughout the history. Napoleonic war was a gamble. WW1 was a gample. Japanese war was a gamble. WW2 was a gamble and only the west carried their ass. Afganistan was a gamble. Cuba was a gamble. Chechnya was a gamble. Crimea was a a gamble. There are just some points in history where russians won so much by gamble that they believe their next gamble will bring them even more, that they will get away with it until at some point they don't and lose everything.
>>58428258a view from the Ukrainian gunner
>>58428655>kidnapped thousands of children>>58429196>number of kidnapped kids alone was in the hundreds of thousandsEstimates start around 300,000 and might be close to 500,000. Putin himself was bragging about a quarter million before he was indicted as a war criminal for human trafficking.The last number I saw on total Ukrainian citizens "relocated" to russia was 1.9 million. I'm assuming that includes children.Nobody really knows for certain. Record-keeping hasn't been a vatnik priority, although record-burning/destruction seems widespread. Unless russia capitulates and is occupied by a peacekeeping force, and a forensic investigation is conducted on the entire governmental structure, all we're ever going to have is estimates.But, it's s disgrace when the evening news reports "thousands if Ukrainians have been relocated for their safety" when it's 2 million and they weren't given the option to stay in Ukraine. The operational terms are "kidnapping" and "hostage taking."

Why doesn't anyone make a small action bolt or straight pull rifle in some of the pistol calibers like .32 ACP, 9x19mm, or 5.7x28mm? Yes, I know .22 Hornet exists, but it's relatively long and rimmed, and I like the idea of having a double stack flush fit or low profile magazine that you could get with rimless cartridges, and the low cost and low recoil of these rounds would put it in the same region of plinking fun as a regular .22, just with more punch.
>>58431153>polymer framed DA/SA CC pistol with external safety/decocker in the same size range as an LCPoh, and a version of this double stacked in .25 ACP

>>58417571I found it works for what I need to do. I have two 3x’s, and one 5x on my big bore AR. I’d like to get an ACOG for my M4gery.
I kinda wanna get a TA33 ACOG because it seems to me like the most overall usable ACOG what with big eye relief and forgiving eye box, and I can mount it on a carry handle AR which would look cool.I know the Primary Arms 5x micro prism coming out soon is probably the smarter buy, but I do want at least 1 ACOG in my bin.
