/K/ommandos, you sign up as a cargo ship anti piracy guard to deffend captain Phillips from skinny. What is your rifle of choice for this task? Mine would be an dmr ar10 to keep em at range in their skiff and a shit ton of clp to fend off the salty sea air.

Anzio 20mm. Put a hole in their stupid dinghy and watch them sink.
What ever is cheapest and available for sale to Maritime PMCs in the last port I was in. Since I have to toss the gun and probably the ammo too, before enter the next port.
M60.
Anyone who moves is pirates.
Anyone who stands still is a well disciplined pirate.
RPD or RPK, because I'm gonna pitch it overboard before we hit port.
>>29819848
>20mm
Some flavor of .308 and a shit-ton of tracer ammo to let them know they should turn back.
Did someone say cargo ship?
>>29820045
Some real fuckin pirates right here
That is until 1942, kraut
>>29819830
>Barret M50
Just shoot those completely unprotected outboard motors to shit with an average of two rounds per pirate boat.
>>29819830
A WA 2000

Ive never understood this, is there literally nowhere to hide weapons on a freighter?

I'm a Merchant Mariner on a naval auxiliary. We carry the M14, M500, and M9, plus the Mk 79, though we don't qualify on it anymore. Plus we have .50 cal mounts, and carry lotsa small arms ammo for embarked security (when we carry them).
>>29819830
A Barret .50.
I'd just sink their fucking boat.
>>29821254
How does join Merchant Marine, or is that a question for /meg/?
Old Soviet MREs and a slingshot/catapult/modified potato gun; if the cans hit then their down, and if they try to eat them they'll be poisoned.
HOWDY PARD
>>29819848
They're made of wood or are inflatable. They can't sink.
A basic m4 because if I'm ditching it no biggie
>>29821274
Why undersell? Go bigger!
>Grab HE rounds
>Punch holes in the side of the ship
>watch it sink
Any answer besides 155mm howitzer is incorrect
M1A just so I can troll /k/ with
>not so inaccurate now eh
after getting back.
>>29819830
I like to think that being on the boat is problematic.

Greek fire 4daze faggot

realtalk why not a GPMG on a swivel mount on the rail? one on each side of the bridge would be extremely effective against pirates with a trained gunner.
Maximis can't possibly be that expensive

Underrated post
>>29821254
Military sealift command?
>>29821360
Not him, but I got into it through the seafarers international union's apprenticeship program. Google it you can apply online.
>>29821360
>>29823218
Side note, the merchant marine is not military.
>>29823032
alright, now i need to make an autoloading ballista. preferably powere by an LS1
>>29823766
LS1 as in GM LS1?
mfw
>>29823781
as in a big V8, yes
mythbusters made a handcranked ballista-ish machine that "worked". and i mean with a bit of science, some good materials and lot of horsepower, we should be able to get some RoF, no?
>>29821182
One of my friends is a medic who works oil rigs all over the world. Back in the early 2000s, he was sent with his rig on one of those fuckall huge Russian transport ships from a port in Africa to the Persian Gulf. Around the horn of Africa, the pirates started chasing them.

Pick one.
>>29819830
M1919 with a few thousand rounds of .30-06
>>29823093
+1
BYZANTIUM FLAMES! DEUS VULT!
>>29823836
YES. FUCK YES!
hire that crazy slingshot guy on youtube as well as napalm load anon and we're all set!
The obvious choice is a Dushka.
>>29823781
Firebird, Formula.
>>29819830
RPG or MGL and plenty of ammo, if price was no option.
If price matters to me for lots of fighting, a SPEC'd up little M60 or 240B, also lots of ammo.
>have to chuck into the sea
Whatever variant of FAL or G3 I pick up cheapest, while accounting for reliability and acceptable accuracy. Occasionally I'd get a pistol I haven't shot, or in a caliber I haven't shot.
A .22 because cheap as fuck rifle and ammo and the targets don't have tshirts to block the shots
>>29823999
And if they're carrying AKs?
>>29824001
They're ooga booga poor fucks
I can still hit them from better range
easiar than deer
>>29824017
You're actively being suppressed, what do
>>29824036
Move 2 feet
>>29824074
So something like this
https://youtu.be/QMBMdeN9dyg?t=101
>>29824094
yes :^)
perfect
>>29819830
Select fire HK 7.62
They'll be dead before they board the ship
>>29819863
This is probably the most sensible answer right here.
Ar-15
Have a crate of polymer 80% lowers
When pulling into a port toss your current ghost lower into the sea. And pack your components in a crate.
After you leave port dremel out a new lower quick and reassemble your gun quick.
Also for sidearm weaponised flare gun. "The pirate dingy just caught on fire and we were going to help but it was too late"
>>29823897
Do I get the shopping cart with purchase or is that extra?
>>29824182
>weaponised flare gun
Best post yet
>>29824182
>>29824197
Basically the high seas equivalent of
"He a good PMC he dindu nuffin"
>>29819848
Where are those videos of CWIS or chain guns trying to hit small boats approaching on choppy seas?
The whole "I'll just take my trusty [meme gun] and blast them" needs some serious rethinking.
>>29824182
>When pulling into a port toss your current ghost lower into the sea.
Which port? Lowers as the weapon is pretty much a USA thing. Get caught with a barrel or trigger assembly in some countries and its years in their shithole prison system.
>>29819830
Water cannons.
OK. Which one of you assholes accidentally connected the hose to the petrol tank?
>>29821858
>inflatable
>can't sink
>20mm
Something here doesn't add up
Nuclear torpedo launcher to make sure they stay dead.
>>29824351
Yeah good point. Not sure.
>>29819868
get some
>>29823032
bp the water then set it ablaze
>>29824374
>accidentally
this with white phosphor rounds
>>29824508
Weaponized flare gun with white phos would be better because port authoratahh
Pirates won't fucking come out again now
>>29820689
>Ive never understood this
because it doesn't happen. i the last 3 years countries with major ports made it possible to store arms in docked ships(with appropriates documents and shit).
