So my country just signed deal of 50 M1A1SA will be added to an old 222 M1A1SA deal.

But looks like SA = Special Armor
What is this ( Special armor) ?
I tried to look for it but turns out it's a special configuration for Morocco. Is it going to have same armor as American ones?
>>28283760
Abrams are shit, in this image armor looks weak as shit and you can obviously see the welding
>>28283760
Monkey model m1s, not that great honestly. Compared to t-72s though, they suffice.
Armor is pretty bad, as previous poster said.
>>28283760
Probably a different composite armor package, not the same as that used in the M1A1HA and above that the US uses.
>>28283770
Such salt.
I have an opportunity to buy one, guy is asking $450.
Just the gun and two magazines, in excellent condition.
It's chambered in 9mm, with a 16+1 capacity.
Private sale because my state isn't kek'd. No tax.
What do?
>>28283749
Go for it. Had a 941R, loved the shit out of it. The only reason I gave it up was a partial trade on a truck. You won't regret it.
>>28283763
I just wish he had the full kit.
I found a year old post on armslist with a lady selling the .41 kit and accessories minus the gun and 9mm slide, for $150.
That is my dream. Had to choose between my USP and the Jericho back in '99 when I bought my first pistol.
The Jericho with steel frame and polygonal barrel makes me moist.
It's the old version without the accessory rail, safety on the slide.
>>28283783
i still love mine although I wish I had more rounds of .41ae

im pretty sure eating alot of sushi is not really harming your operator carrer
>>28283684
You can't eat sushi weekly on a 12 month training cycle. Be lucky to get a weekend off a month.
>>28283697
still healthy as fuck
Merry X-mas!

You forgot me, I'm apparently a fag and I don't really qualify as anything on the list. Yes I have an AR, but it has no rails and no nonstandard accessories and never will.
>>28283664
Satori-san
My apologies. I guess the 9th category is us named fags.
>>28283638
You forgot us
I have no military experience or with weapons for that matter,
I'm thinking about joining the foreign legion.
Anybody here can actually give me some insight first or second hand on it?
How hard is it?
The physical test for admission is even easier than my country's army, but the contract last 5 years so if it's hell I'm afraid I won't be able to push trough it.
>>28283622
Get used to marching long distances in full gear.
No chance, they take ex military and desperate people from 3rd world shit holes.
The entry exam is 3 weeks long. Doubt your country is tougher
>>28283636
That's every fucking military everywhere.
9x18 thread
need advice, want input from people who own or have shot Polish P64. how do you like them? good carry guns? fit and finish? compared to Feg PA-63 or PM?
also post 9x18 porn
>Yurop
Sell cars that emit a few percent too much Nx.
>Murrica
Keep selling guns that have killed children due to faulty trigger mechanism.
No one would point a loaded gun? Tell the police sniper whose Remington fired through an on going raid.
When was the problem discovered? Don't ask!
When was it first recognized by a court verdict? Seriously, don't.
When was the call back initiated?
So is this the new Glock?
>>28283579
only fudds and retards consider the r700 good
>>28283587
There's almost 8 million of those things out there.

>No one would point a loaded gun? Tell the police sniper whose Remington fired through an on going raid.
probably a cover-up for the cop's fuck up
I've been considering making ghillie suits to sell (fitted to specific environs). Wondering if you think preppers/whoever would be interested?
Pic not related
>>28283574
Idk maybe. But bumping for a potentially good idea
My desire ro know more intensifies.
>>28283574
All you need for a ghillie suit is a set of fatigues, and a bunch of burlap sandbags.
Atleast that all our snipers ever used to make thiers.
Theyd unravel the sandbags and use a heavy guage sewing needle to thread em through the fatigues until theyd turned it into a ghillie suit.
Then they go roll around in the mud/bushes/grass for a few days to naturalize it to the area.
Except in 99 percent of thier missions they never even wore it.
after Iraq was pacified (for the most part) in May 2003, what would have happened if the US invaded Iran?
Deaths would be in the tens of thousands, ISIS would probably be able to contest with western nations.

With or without coalition?
Does your family enjoy funs anons?
My dad and late grandfather. Everyone else is indifferent.
My family is largely pro-gun, but none of us shoot on a regular basis.
My dad does, but rarely does he ever shoot. He still beats me every time with ring sights.
Do they still use mess kits in the military or have they been replaced by MRE self-contained disposable shit?
>>28283391
No they've been replaced with amputated anime girls
Depends on the military.
Plenty of yurokek countries still have WW2 (or earlier) era mess kits in service.
>>28283477
Hahaha fucking C-Rations and shit? That's fucking terrible. I was vegetarian during deployment so my dietary restrictions were bad enough, couldn't image eating even crappier food.
Can someone please identify this shotgun for me? It's the shotgun snake uses in mgs4 lel
>>28283337
Fictional.
its approximately a.
-Remington 870 14" barrel
-Surefire foreend.
-Sage stock (with different pistol grip)
-And a rail that doesn't exist closest would be a side mounted rail but there are better options
>>28283337
PSG1 SNIPER RIFLE

Now I'm not some moron who thinks all weapons should be banned, but there's a limit, you know? The only people who need slide-action pistols and combat assault weaponry are police and mass shooters. So, who else here thinks that citizens should only have revolvers? Over/under shotguns and some low caliber rifles are okay, since they wont kill a person in one shot.
>>28282812
Fuck off Jesse.....If this is not Jesse...Fuck off still.
>>28282812
>slide action pistols
Also that's the fucking ugliest revolver I've ever seen
>>28282812
>Now I'm not some moron
Not so fast...
Is this legal to use against an intruder?
>>28282792
self defense
you grabbed the first thing you could find
you're afraid of roaches
you mistook your intruder with a roach
you played enough fallout to despise roachs
>>28282792
No.
>>28282792
Only if turks.

Are carbon fiber barrels a meme?
yes its a meme and its gaudy
like carbon fiber car parts on most street cars
(if it works and looks good and its real carbon fiber its fine to use on some street cars)
leave carbon fiber to aircraft and race cars
>>28282711
I think it's one of those things where its still in its infancy, give a couple generations and the benefits Might make sense; looks completely aside. Remember reading some articles about it a few years ago as this promising new technology, only time will tell.
>>28282764
>>28282819
But why though?
Carbon Fiber is proven to be more brittle than Aluminum. Nobody serious makes aluminum barrels.
