Do any American companies make .308 diameter FMJ bullets with an air pocket like pic related?
in theory, all rounds have that "air pocket", they dont fill cases to the brim with powder you know.
>>30259095
No, the bullet. In the tip of the jacket where there is no lead.
Why was there such a substantial difference of treatment of POWs between the Axis and the Western Allies? Obviously the Soviet Union is an exception to the rule, but the point still stands. Japan hadn't signed the Geneva conventions at that time, but Austria and Germany certainly had. It just seems strange that there was such a large disparity between the conditions of each nation; didn't the Germans fear that their own POWs in other countries would be treated poorly if they didn't have reasonable standards in their prisons?
>>30258740
At some point you have to decide if you're going to feed your prisoners or your fighting men.

Back in the 1990s, I had a neighbor who was a POW. He was an infantryman and was captured by German infantry. He said they treated him very well. They gave him lots of food and water - even cigarettes. They were friendly. I suppose it was an infantry thing. They knew what he had been through as they were going through the same shit.
I was impressed by that story. Thankfully, he escaped before being transferred to the rear where the true evil occurred.
>>30258740
POWs in germany wasnt treated to bad, atleast not in the early stages of the war.
This ofcourse excludes poles and others that the germans considered "subhuman".
The Japs however treated everyone like shit.
Help me /k/.
Gun noob here. I want an ar15. Yes because of the shit that went down in orlando. Saw this on armslist. Would you buy it for $1100?
>>30258634
Nope.
Almost everything on arms list is overpriced fud shit anyway.
I recently got the new ruger AR for around $600. It works.
>>30258634
Anybody that advertises something as "NIB never fired" on arms list is lying.
>>30258634
Build your own
I want a .223. I live in Connecticut. I have 1500 American dollars.
What's my best option?
>>30258600
Ar-15
AR-15 build. Buy an 80% lower and your high cap mags out of state.

Fuck man, I'm visiting family in southern Ukraine right now, 30 miles from Russia. It's OK here, but lots of logistics and materiel passing through here (pic related). Fuck those vatniks
Good video but I thought the separatists had a higher KD ratio at the airport?
I miss the Ukraine threads. Heavy shelling and combat goes on as soon as nightfall breaks. Then they pack it all away for the morning to come out and do it the next night.
Hi /k/, I've been looking to buy a decent Karambit. I've noticed a shitload of Chinese sellers on eBay selling truckloads of random karambits, usually modeled after CS GO Vidya. Pakistani sellers also sell Damascus ones, but they don't look like they even have an edge.
Are the cheap Karambits actually worth a try or should I stick to the higher end ones like from Fox or Benchmade?
why
>>30258454
I've got a cold steel one that I tho k I paid 75$ for. It's more for show really I don't use it for anything
>>30258454
I don't think Benchmade makes karambits?
And at 49 years of age, she's old as fuck.
What should she be replaced with? Can something like a frigate do her job?
>>30258445
Zumwalt
>>30258458
She's a thinker not a fighter, she doesn't need big guns like those.

>aimpoint with teh 20 inch build
I always thought those were neato.
Did you carry it in the serivice/ why that combo and not the carry handle, aimpoint mount that pushes it more foward?
How easy is it to shoot 130 different people using an AR-15?
>>30258188
you're not running when firing so it's very hard to get more than just a couple, idiots stay in one spot
its impossible to be absolutely quiet when scared, involuntary movements cause noise everywhere
>>30258188
Well, when you shoot a person with an AR-15 it causes two more to show up to drag them away.
You shoot those two, and two more show up.
It compounds very fast.
>>30258188
This sounds like bait... Hello FBI
Alright, /k/. We get at least one "How can we make Germany win WW 2" thread per week.
Now let's do something different:
how can we make Japan win WW 2.
Here are the conditions:
it's 1939, the US oil embargo is already in effect.Their only condition on lifting it is complete withdrawl from China, which is unacceptable. At this point war is pretty much inevitable. You have two years to prepare.
Here are the conditions that qualify "winning":
destroy the US Pacific Fleet
Hold your conquests by 1945
>>30257737
Get proper intel do the exact same plan but actually get the carriers this time. Raugh at the imperialist dogs. Simple really
>>30257737
assasinate the military leadership and send the hardliners to manchuko 2bh
>>30257737
Goes balls deep on Hawaii and hold it like Okinawa.
Just curious, because some people are claiming that they are old weapons that wouldn't last two days in a real conflict.
Are carriers obsolete? Or are they still relevant?
>>30257557
They would be the main target of the enemy fleet, so what do you think?
>>30257557
As long as planes exist and are relevant, then an aircraft carrier is relevant. Why would it not be? Planes are still the premier means of killing things. They provide standoff and sustained fighting capabilities unmatched by anything.
>>30257557
every fucking day
every single fucking day
Which one?
3rd gen unless you're a leftie

Doesn't really matter, does it.
So /k/ I have 5k to get funs figured now the time before everyone starts panic buying.
I'm want to get the following 308 semi auto
357 hand handgun
45-70 rifle
9mm "pistol" thinking the mpx
AR 15 rifle or akm rifle.
So is this doable with 5k? Also what does recommend is the best quality for the money for each of these.
>>30257289
easily doable.
My suggestion is to upgrade from an MPX to a B&T APC9. Unfortunately most dealers are out of stock.
>>30257313
What's are the benefits of that vs the mpx?
