Does any hold /k/ related jobs in other countries besides the USA? I been wanting to join the State or Fed policia in Mexico but I have to erase my tats
Erase your tats? That must be some eraser.
Why do you need to get them removed? Arms/face? Offensive tats?

Can't have tats anywhere

>The final design contract, under which both sides were to contribute an initial $6 billion each for prototype development and production, has not been signed between India and Russia so far.
>Under the new offer, India will have to pay $3.7 billion, instead of $6 billion, for the technological know-how and three prototypes of PAK FA fighters. The proposal awaits a decision from Prime Minister Narendra Modi, when he meets Russian President Vladimir Putin for the annual India-Russia summit this week.
>Sources said the Russian offer is driven by Moscow’s cash crunch and lack of firm orders with its defence industry.
>But the Indian Air Force (IAF) remains opposed to the idea. A senior IAF official said, “We are not in favour of the FGFA. The PAK FA fighter is too expensive at even this rate, and we are not sure of its capabilities.”

PakFA is official dead. A third wold nation doesn't even want it, and Russia is now too broke to afford it and has to beg.
>>28291546
Russia can and will develop PakFA on its own. Orders are already coming in 2016.
>>28291546
So what happens if Russia is forced to cancel the PAK FA.
Is Russia's status as a serious aerial threat finished?

Its about the twin seater India wanted/wants.
It has nothing to do with the single seater.
I've spent the past couple days watching videos and voraciously reading abour recycling, casting and reloading ammunition.
I've always been interested in metallurgy of all kinds, but I've never been able to try any kind of DIY stuff due to lack of funds and lack of workspace.
I don't see that changing in the near future but I'm trying to absorb all the information I can on the subject so that if I do get the chance I'll have a base of practical knowledge to start from.
So yeah, reloading/casting/forging/etc thread? Advice, stories, resources for beginners etc all welcome.
Any questions in particular on metallurgy? I'm not too familiar with its effects on making your own boolits, but I have a more technical perspective that maybe I could give some pointers on (as in, it's my job).
dude its only like $200 to get started. start with Lee equipment. cast your own bullets. set primers. measure gun powder. press the bullet in. easy. do your research and go slow.
>>28291624
I literally don't have space to set up a work area, otherwise getting the basic money together for presses, dies, etc and searching around at garages for scrap lead wouldn't be an issue
>>28291519
I'm pretty much at the stage where I don't even know what questions to be asking. I know the basics of casting lead for bullets and I know a decent amount of secondhand knowledge on steel and that's about it
/K/ommandos I have a question I wanted to get some answers to, but here is the basic premise:
I'm from /tg/ planning on running a colonialism-type space game. The players and their crew go to another planet and have the job of getting a solid colony going by the time the next colony ship arrives (a few thousand now, about 10k people a few years after the characters arrive).
So as to why there is a question on carriers- I decided an aircraft carrier was reasonably about the necessary size of a ship that would carry a colonizing force of about a thousand or so, but I'm not sure how much crew you would need. Wikipedia says 5,000+ as the crew for a Nimitz, but I couldn't find the composition of the crew ie., how many of that crew is engineering, pilots, weapons systems operators, sanitation, comms, etc.
Assuming automation I would expect at least half a normal crew operation. Since the crew will operate in shifts to get to the planet along the 20 year journey there (cryosleep), an aircraft carrier-size space ship should be big enough for:
Hydroponics/biolab
Small shuttle hangar
cryopod storage
industrial size 3D printer plus metal shop
Storage for food + water + ammo + weapons
50 ground vehicles including spare parts
5 air vehicles (think small cessnas or crop dusters, nothing larger than a Gripen) plus spare parts
3 satellites (for comms and GPS stuff)
hospital
computer servers
250 TW nuclear fusion reactor
backup 100 TW fusion reactor (think the size of a normal A4W or A1B nuclear reactor)
I guess the question is, what WOULD the crew requirement for something like that look like? What is the normal crew of a carrier?

Honestly, you should plan it more around a cruise ship and less around an aircraft carrier. Aircraft carriers are purpose driven to combat, there's a lot of crew redundancy, and no one's just along for the ride to a new location. Obviously these are going to be more expensive ships to run, not just because they're making no return, but because of all this purpose driven crew, all the equipment that supports them, all the maintenance their doing throughout the ship and on the aircraft, etc.
A carrier of some kind, assuming it doesn't just land and deconstruct, needs to be operable after the bulk of the people it's carrying have left. Again, think cruise ship ratios.

Damn, I was in 6th grade when that shit happened. Nobody really thought he was in the wrong, they just had to go through the motions of a court trial and all.
Hell, in our "current events" part of class we were all saying he was in the right.
>>28290887
I had to look up who that was, the pic of him in the yellow shirt kind of looks like Dahmer.
>when asked if he'd been making court ordered payments he replied that he hadn't paid a dime of the $24 million owed to the victims family

I'm looking to learn more about WW1. I found a rare book on a battalion a family member was in and ordered it. However, do you have any recommendations for books on overall history? Any fun facts?
Just a general WW1 thread
>>28290859
What sorta shit?
The only fun fact i know is that Germany went undefeated in East Africa with gorilla warfare.
>>28290879
Just anything you wanna post. I know or think I know the big things. Very much ignorant of anything else

OK fags I am going into Mordor to buy a truck soon can i bring my M&P 40 with me I have modified it to have a smaller grip like the M&P 40c (10 rnd mag) and bought it back in 2012
>inb4 S&W tries to sue me for modifying their gun
>pic related basically what Ive done to mine
>>28290649
you can bring it but ca doesnt consider other states ccw as valid so if you do want it to be legal it will be empty in a locked container
>>28290693
^^ so pretty much dont bother. If you do need it, you'll die before you unlock it, then the nigger will take your gun along with your money.
Jesus fuck guys, is it really this difficult to watch a few knife fighting videos on youtube and pack a 5"+ blade?
>>28290649
you can keep loaded magazines as long as they arent in the pistol, in the same locked container as the pistol. a car trunk counts as a locked container. so you can throw your handgun with action open and loaded mags next to it in the trunk. but if you have a ccw from another state its not valid in california
make sure to decontaminate your truck when you return home, or you might spread the liberal cancer to other states faster
Well hey fellas I can't quite figure out how to use this sucker in my AR. Can anyone show me how to use it?
Also, post cool mods to your weapons!
>>28290570
>he doesn't have a semi-auto bolt carrier
lol batf
what youve got is broken and worthless scrap metal
the thingy goes around the trigger mo bob. then the other thingy goes in it. they get pressed by the bolt carrier and you go ratatatatatat
So does this cartridge have any place in the armory of today's modern citizen?
The 5.7x28 cartridge is designed to defeat body armor, which more and more criminals have access to
The p90 is effective out to 20p yards, which would cover most threats that I might encounter (highway robbery on country road, school shooting, home defense)
The p90 provides a compact package for tight corners/hallways, and with the appropriate outfit can ve concealed. the five-seven allows for a CCW in a variety of outfits
Thoughts?

This is a shitty thread and you're probably a 17-19 year old kid that just watched a video on youtube that featured either of the two guns chambered in it.
>>28290390
I wish they'd slim down the end of the slide on the 57, remove the rail, and knock the mags down to 15rds and it would make a crazy CC gun.
>>28290390
Plan on getting one.
Anymore ever going to come of this little slut?...I want one real bad. Updates on it or is it vapor
thought it said Kriss Hard at first

I wonder if they're better trained now, look at all that nice US gear they have.

That debris looks like a big hassle. Could a small armored vehicle with a heavy plow clear that or are they stuck with their single regular dozer?
The Iraqi army sucked hard on the invasion because they were all unpaid sunnis.
I hope you already own one, /k/, because if not...

Why would anyone buy a stag arms lower?
>>28289963
Doesn't matter why anyone would. The point is that no one's going to even be able to buy any more.
What happened?
what's so special about their parts over psa?
I don't know, how about you post it in the fucking AR thread dipshit
The big, white "BCM"
Better QA, mostly. Dealing with BCM is also more pleasant then PSA.
