>yfw you realize procuring a concealed handgun permit is the government's indirect way of creating a gun owners registry.
This is why I refuse to get one.
>>28284926
I think my brother was saying some shit to this effect last night at dinner. Are you my brother?
>>28284926
>ccw is issued (or not) by a state. not the feds
>states are allowed to have (and some actually do have) registries
Your idea doesn't check out in the world of things that make any sense.
>>28284942
LISTEN HERE BROTHER, YOU AINT MY BROTHER!
JUST FOR SAYING THAT, IM GONNA HAVE GO LAY THE SMACKDOWN ON YA!!!
Hey /k/ I've been lurking but I still don't know shit about guns
would pic related be possible ?
2/10, got me to reply
>>28284888
Build as a tubegun, put plastic revolver cylinder over top and fake hammer, don't put on a stock, and you will have a shitty manchild machine pistol
>>28284888
Civilian here. How hard is it to actually earn the privilege of fighting in special forces ie. SAS JTF2 GROM etc.? Is it sort of if you work or train hard enough you'll make it or is it like professional sports that likely you're just born with it?
Also post some gud pics
Im gonna let you in on some operator advice anon...
Its pretty fucking hard
Cant you google it? There have been countless books and docos done about SAS selection.
it's hard, but not professional Athlete hard. you can train into it. i'd say its 10% Luck, 20% Skill, 15% Concentrated Power of Will, 5% Pleasure, 50% Pain, and 100% Reason to Remember the Name.
A bunch of faggots are going around vandalizing my local community. They don't target anyone in particular, just breaking into cars and smashing property across several adjacent neighborhoods. Last night my neighbor's christmas lights got cut. I'm fucking sick of these degenerates and the police are doing jack shit. I'm going to catch them myself, or at least find out who did it and call the cops.
How should I go about doing this? I'm back home from college till the 15th so I don't have too much time.
I had a few ideas:
>Camera
Spend some money on a security camera and only protect the driveway. Ideal because it can catch them while I'm away, but that's such a small area to cover.
>Thermal Camera and/or Ghillie suit
I take walks at night all the time, but this time I would drop $300 on a suit and thermal camera for my phone and hunt them myself. Problem is if I have to tail them into a neighborhood (I'd stalk them in the farm fields in ghillie) I'd look suspicious as hell. Thermal would allow me to see through the dark, but I'm thinking I don't really need it, as my area is very well lit and I can see extremely far in the dark with all the ambient light.
Now, I also have a list of suspects:
>Old man down the street
He has peculiar habits and a bad temperament, but he's in his late 50s, and it seems like it's just WAY too much effort for him to wander to other neighborhoods several miles away
>Teenage shitheads in another neighborhood
While I was out one night I saw these high school retards drive drunk on an empty road, then pull into their house. I've seen other teenagers driving fancy sports cars (spoiled brats) also go into the same house. Wouldn't surpass me if these pissants vandalized for fun.
>Blacks from outside
My area is almost all white with an asian minority. I've seen blacks maybe twice in the past year in my area. One time these two city youths were randomly wandering my street. The second time was when I was getting my mail, some black [CONT]
[cont] woman came up and asked if I wanted to donate to some poor youths charity. I declined and she hopped into a grimy white van that absolutely did not look suspicious in any regard. I doubt it's them though-- I just never see them around enough.
I'm leaning most towards the teenagers in the other neighborhood. They're the most suspicious. I'm probably going to monitor them for a while, problem is-- once they hope into their cars and drive I have to chase them on foot to not seem suspicious.
Just post outside your house in the bushes or at your window, get some security lights and set up trip wires hooked to a car alarm
>>28284768
>My area is almost all white with an asian minority.
You are probably safe from the blacks because they know they are out of placed and definitely noticed. Half of my neighborhood watch newsletter/blotter is all "suspicious African American seen walking".

>Rail-mobile launcher used in DF-41 ejection test
>U.S. intelligence agencies recently monitored a Chinese test of a new rail car-based long-range missile capable of hitting targets throughout the United States.
>The canister ejection test of a DF-41 missile from a rail-mobile launcher was detected on Dec. 5 in western China, said defense officials familiar with reports of the test.
>However, Chinese rail-based missile development has been carried out in the past at the Wuzhai missile test center, also known as the Taiyuan satellite launch center since 1982, according to declassified CIA documents. The launch site is located in China’s central Shanxi Province.
>The test this month marks a significant milestone for Chinese strategic weapons developers and demonstrates that Beijing is moving ahead with building and deploying the DF-41 on difficult-to-locate rail cars, in addition to previously-known road-mobile launchers, the officials said.
DF-41 ICBM got train-bount!
So, what are the advantages of a train-based ICBM system?
>>28284758
>Previous disclosures from China on the DF-41, including Internet photographs, all showed the heavy missile deployed on a wheeled transporter erector launcher that is moved on roads.
>The DF-41, with a range of more than 7,500 miles, is China’s most potent ICBM and was flight tested a day before the rail car ejection test with two multiple-independently targetable reentry vehicles (MIRVs), officials said.
>Military analysts say the mobile basing of missiles is designed to complicate preemptive attacks on nuclear forces, such as those envisioned under the Pentagon’s Prompt Global Strike program, which will use precision-guided conventional weapons capable of striking targets at any location on earth within minutes of their discovery.
>U.S. intelligence agencies estimate the DF-41 when deployed will carry up to 10 MIRVs—vastly increasing Beijing’s current warhead stockpile, which is based on single-warhead missiles, and currently estimated to include around 300 warheads.
>China is believed to have obtained rail-mobile missile technology from Ukraine, which during the Soviet period built the SS-24 rail-based ICBM, according to a report by Georgetown University’s Asian Arms Control Project.
>China state television in 2006 released the first details of the train basing for missiles in video footage showing missile launch cars, command cars, and other missile system railcars—all disguised as passenger train cars.
>The Georgetown report said the Chinese rail-mobile ICBM system is modeled on the Ukrainian-designed SS-24, and is known as a “land nuclear submarine”—an indication the rail launcher uses an ejection tube to boost the missile from the train car shortly before ignition of its engine.
>China also is developing an extensive rail and tunnel system devoted to the missile train in central China, according to the report.
>>28284758
More difficult to locate, provides an additional vector of attack
Since China is still the underdog, it makes it more likely these will survive a US invasion and be used against us, thereby resulting in the eradication of the Chinese
>>28284758
And yet MAD still doesn't exist between us and them.
The end.
Other than renting a .22 rifle every now and again, I mostly stick to my pistol. Yesterday I got to shoot a Remington 870 and goddamn that thing has some kick. That being said, I hardly had to aim it and it still bullseyed a target at 25 feet. I'd like to try some other ones, but ammo is expensive and after 15 shells I started to bruise a little. Do they make milder shotguns/ less powerful shells?
>>28284726
20 ga.
>>28284726
>Do they make milder shotguns/ less powerful shells?
Yes.
>>28284726
>ammo is expensive
No it's not. Range is ripping you off
So say America IS FORCED to adopt a new bullpup service rifle. What should it be?
>AUG
>F2000
>Tavor
>a new indigenous design?
>>28284690
Tavor. Be the goodest goy
>>28284690
They would make a bullpup AR-15
>>28284690
M60E6 as standard service weapon
/k/ approved? New stormtroopers were great and the X-Wing vs TIE scenes were fucking godlike.
>>28284656
TR-8R was the best stormtrooper.
>>28284656
/k/ is dead. We /v/ and /tv/ now.
Darth Fuccboi should have kept his helmet on. I can't find him intimidating now that I know what he really looks like.
/k/, looking at college and I'm interested in military history.
What sorts of classes and majors should I be looking at to become a military historian? Should I go for a generic history majors at whatever university I can get into or are there any non-military schools that have good military history courses?
You're not getting a job with a liberal arts degree, op. Which is exactly what you're asking about
>>28284454
Don't unless you think you think you'll enjoy being poor in your 40s. Get a useful degree.
>>28284461
You can get a job with almost any degree as long as you know how to sell the advantages it gives you. Masters in history? You're probably amazing at researching and summerizing complex ideas. Lit? Great at abstract thinking and reading between the lines. Women's studies? You're probably really good at screaming at people.
Okay, Women's studies is still a joke, but you get the idea. Its not the degree, its how you use what it taught you. I make ~80k before taxes working for a major bank. I majored in Museum Studies, but I was able to leverage skills that I learned getting that useless liberal arts degree to make myself look attractive.
What does /k/ think/know about Green Berets?
Do you know any?
Stories?
I spoke to my local Army Recruiter and will go see him sometime next week.
Anyone know if the 18x enlistment option still a thing?
Also operator thread. Post pics, talk shit, discuss.
18X is still a thing. I hear the Q-course is brutal if you don't have prior military experience, though.
>>28284355
Thanks for the info. What kind of brutal?
Physical or mental?
I'm honestly most scared of the land navigation rucks to be honest. One of the few things you have to do alone and if you lose any equipment you get recycled. Sounds high stress.
people who shouldn't have guns/gun accidents

Suddenly, A world war breaks out. Some of the opposing nations have figure out how to remotely half life the radioactive material in the warheads turning them into useless missiles.
Keep in mind the forests are on fire because theses useless missiles were fired and ran down regardless and started fires that rage on.
>>28283989
... and?
Sooo, what. The fissle material is inert inside the warhead? Or the after-blast radiation is removed quickly? Because one leads to conventional warfare being a thing again, the other leads to a lot of flattened cities
Did these guys actually kill anyone or did they just do it to scare people off?
>tfw when no based roof /k/oreans in your town
>>28283836
from what i remember reading about it they shot at an awful lot of people at first
>>28283836
There were scores of dead bodies found abandoned in alleys after the riots.
Aside from an unfortunate friendly fire incident, there were no killings directly tied to the Koreans
Many people suspect they were somehow involved.
