Continuing on from >>93796 (which will probably disappear in not that long time, maybe some website archives /vip/, I don't really know, and I don't really care). Starting out, this gnarly art depicting the violent arcade beat-em-up Splatterhouse, because I think it's cool as fuck still.
So Ukraine received some interesting surplus armaments from Poland a few weeks back, the RPG-76 'Komar' (Mosquito)An obscure rocket launcher, Poland being the only user, and unlike most other weapons of its kind. Rather than working as a recoilless rifle and venting blast out back through a venturi, the rocket instead has jets jutting out the sides in four positions and pointing backwards at an angle, starting at a relatively low pressure and then building up as it travels (so as reduce initial blasting).To use it, you unfold its stock, shoulder it, one hand around the front of the stock, another on the rear of the body of the launcher. Then you take aim use the electric trigger which is unveiled when the stock is unfolded, there's a not insignificant blast to your sides, but as long as nobody is standing right next to you (and you grip it properly), you're good.Not venting out back is what allows it to have something like a stock as you'd see on a subgun, meaning you can fold this rocket launcher up and have a very short and convenient package easy to store and carry. As it is a single use launcher made out of aluminum, it can be made thin and light as it only has to safely sustain one firing, so it's 4lbs while still loaded.Poland had actually retired these launchers from front-line use in the early 2000s as the light warhead wasn't able to defeat modern tanks, but as they sent units to Iraq and Afghanistan, these things were brought out again, and it was realized that there's quite a lot of other things to blow up on the battlefield which aren't big bad tanks, such as lighter armored vehicles or fortifications (and the lack of direct backblast made it friendly to fire out of windows and out of vehicles, as long as you clear the 'muzzle' end).This thing looks awkward and like not much to the world at first glance, but learning about it, I came away very impressed. It's remarkably compact for its class.
So I'm finally 'That 30 Year Old Doomer' now. Yay, I guess.
Angsting about age aside, let's talk about guns.This is the Norinco MAK-90 (semi-auto sporter variant of the Type-56, the Chinese copy of the AK), but this is a different one. Most of the MAK-90 line was made with a stamped sheet steel receiver of varying configurations, mainly differing in the rear of the receiver, featuring either a straight rear trunnion like normal Russian AKs, the slanted one like most Chinese AKs and older Russian AKs, and an outright diagonal one, like on the Norinco Hunter. If you want to put a proper stock and pistol grip onto a MAK-90, the kind of receiver it has makes all the difference.A small number of early MAK-90s were however made in Factory 386, the Norinco concern facility where the PolyTech Legend line was produced. The PolyTech Legend line was intended as a deluxe product, with Kalashnikov rifles in various configurations and calibers being made to a high standard with lots of effort put into fit and finish. They made PolyTech Legend rifles as both stamped and milled receiver rifles, and these early MAK-90s ended up being milled ones.These early 386 MAK-90s weren't made to that exact same standard as the Poly-Tech Legend line, but they're definitely a good cut above normal MAK-90s, and notable for having good triggers and a bolt that feels pretty smooth as you manipulate it back and forth. They don't fetch as much as the nicer rifles, but people who know what they are will be willing to pay more for them than a normal Norinco AK.If one wanted to have an oldschool milled 7.62mm AK of nice quality, but not so nice that you would be afraid to shoot it, these specific rifles would be great for that, and it's not that hard to find a proper pistolgrip and stock, as well as the suitable slant-cut muzzlebrake.
Actually, scratch the slant-cut muzzlebrake, that's an AKM feature, not an AK feature.Anyway, here's such an early MAK-90 converted into proper military configuration, appropriate stock and grip, as well as the folding spike bayonet. Very stylish and old fashioned.
Here's a PolyTech Legend rifle itself. Aside from still using the same cheap yellow wood as in normal Norinco brand production (stained darker for some models), these rifles are very finely put together examples of the Kalashnikov. The trigger breaks like an icicle and the bolt feels like it's running on oiled glass.This one is a rare "double-folder" variant. Going after PLA configurations, a Type-56 with a fixed stock would have the typical Chinese folding spike bayonet, while one with an underfolding stock would instead have a separate knife bayonet.A "double-folder" such as this was never a standard issued weapon in the PLA, and very few commercial rifles were made this wayThis one is in excellent condition (perhaps even unfired). You can really see that this rifle is made to a much finer standard than the early milled MAK-90, which falls inbetween the PolyTech and the regular Norinco sporters.
Tomorrow Larry the fiber optic guy is coming to hook me up to gigabit fiber internet. Any ideas for using all of that bandwidth? I was planning on running an i2p router, a bunch of torrents over my vpn, and reselling internet to pay the bill, but I doubt that will use all of it. Any other fun things to do with a shitload of bandwidth?
>reselling internetHow? Can you explain how I identify and throttle devices connected to a router that I own to give them a slice of my gigabit connection and do I need to make them sign a legally binding waver that they are liable for illegal browsing using my gigabit network or do I have to monitor that shit and report deviants to the police?Like I'm 5 please, I'm ikle and sickly.
is it really bannable to reply to someone else who was being off topic, when that person didn't even get banned

Modern-day groups who have the same principles as the Pharisee are the bane of our existence, am I right? Pitting religions, cultures and political groups against one another in an attempt to hold onto the sanctity of their surroundings.>PhariseeNOUN a member of an ancient Jewish sect, distinguished by strict observance of the traditional and written law, and commonly held to have pretensions to superior sanctity.Has anyone had any experiences with people or groups who follow the same principles as the Pharisee?- Before Jesus died most people in Jerusalem were either Jew, Gentile or Pharisee.- Are Pharisee pitting Jews, Christians and Muslims against one another?- What text or laws are clearly created to maintain the 'sanctity' of the Pharisee lifestyle?
>>114883Elaborate.
>>114886Polposters hate fags and blacks as a matter of ideologyBlacks hate fags and polpostersFags hate blacks for murdering them and hate polposters as a matter of ideology All of this conflict is promoted by the feds
>>114901So all 3 groups believe in some kind of sanctity?>fedsI'm pretty sure they too have people who could be classed as having Pharisee like tendencies.
Is /vip/ a Pharisee club?>I don't like ads and feel the need to support things that I enjoy for entertainment and knowledge.Why are you part of the /vip/ Pharisee club? You're clearly not contributing to threads on /vip/...
oof.
Statistically speaking, how 'unique' is that original idea of yours?How will you react when psychopaths copy it for profit and control?
