A german that don't have access to guns and he is soon to be arrested for making lethal even projectile based weapons since laws are getting worse and worse.

I've bounced bbs back into me before by accident, shooting at pigeons in a barn.
I had one shed with great ricochet walls. I'd shoot bbs at a slight angle so they'd bounce back and forth on the walls till they got stopped. I guess that's part of what makes bbs far more dangerous than pellets, they like to bounce instead of crush.

N00b here:
Would pic related be a good optic for my M&P 15 if most of my shooting is between 50 - 100 yards?
Also, is the front sight post going to be a problem blocking the scope?
Thank you for your consideration in this matter.

Or any other recommendations on a sub $400 optic?

Use the fucking irons!!! 50 to a 100 yards fuckall
>>
>>28273869
Just browse the internet for an optic in your price range and do research. Literally everyone I see with a $700 M&P has a $600 eotech or something of the sort while o got a $100 sight from SG that doesn't work. The front sight won't get in the way unless the dot is lower than the sight blade. It should be right on the tip of the sight post.

Why would you have a tank on legs rather than a tank on treads?

Ok so /k/ is the best place to get the most unfiltered and honest opinions on guns and gear, but you have to put up with a sizable amount of shitposting.

Reddit gun subreddits are probably the biggest circeljerks you can find on the web, with most of it shit and the minority being useful info.

Weapons specific forums (FALfiles for instance) are pretty good for specifics if you know precisely what you're after.

Are there any other sources I'm missing?

Also, why do so many anons shit on leddit? The non firearms related subreddits are complete shit, but I know a share amount of you are redditors because I've seen the same exact gun pictures posted here and on r/guns, r/mosinnagant, r/firearms, r/glocks, etc.

So I make one stupid purchase after the sandy vag scare because a friend said "hurry and buy ak" and nobody told me otherwise. I regret it myself all the time as well, but there's no fixing it unless I can jew it onto some idiot if we have another scare.

This thread is for bitching and moaning about anything in the gun industry or community. New guns, failed guns, schools that screw people over, that fat fuck Larry Vickers, just whatever.

What's grinding my gears today?
>Steel Challenge classification is based on Open Division
>If you shoot Limited you're ranked lower because you can't shoot as fast as someone with a race gun, but the limitations of your gear is not factored in
>So just picking up a race gun and spending a weekend practicing with it before a match could bump you up a classification rank

I hate the majority of the firearm community because they're not autistic robots like me and thus succumb to myth perpetuation without ever checking the facts.

>succumb to myth perpetuation without ever checking the facts.
Why the fuck is this so common with gun owners? You could seriously start a thread on /k/ with something like "Obama is going to restrict guns base on your child support payments" and in no time people would be repeating that shit in other threads.
>>
>>28273310
To be fair I'd wager a portion of it is just memeing fuckheads, baiters, etc that want to fuck with people.

But the fuck it spreads and it's trollucrative to use it as bait says something about the community.

Looks like the Chinese now have a Growler based on the Flanker platform.

It even has similiar wingtip jamming-receiver pods like the AN/ALQ-218 on the EA-18G Growler...

The pods, which look like the AN/ALQ-218 TJSR on the Growler...
>>
>>28273262
One can also see the small antennae ontop the pods.

The engines seem to be WS-10s, which would be another evidence that the maturity of chinese engine tech is coming along.
>>
>>28273265
Compared with the standard J-16, the J-16 EW (or "JD-16" according to rumors), has no gun and a different shorter radome for a EW-capable AESA radar. It's actual electronic attack pods have not been revealed, but they are likely AESA based like the New Generation Jammer as well, since China has shown similiar systems on the Y-8 based EW planes already.

The lack of a gun is also a 'feature' of the Growler, btw.

What does /k/ think of tanks with big ass radar boxes?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VH9yXTSMZ8c

Anyone know Russian? What is says about those big ass radar boxes? Also I don't think this tank will survive CQC.

Looks like its copied from that old Japanese tank with the single big box.

From what I understood, they predict where a shell would land.

Pretty much every artillery system has a radar for measuring the gun's muzzle velocity and improving the accuracy of its barrage.

They even fit them on field guns like the L118 and M777 nowadays

Could the British have won (or even survived) WWII with only Russian assistance?

If America had stayed out of the European War and had focused purely on the Pacific War, could the British have held on on their own?

>>28272872
no shit?

They outproduced the germans in every department.
>>
>>28272872
The Germans couldn't win the air war against Britain, they couldn't hope to defeat the Royal Navy, and any invasion across the Channel given the previous two points would have been an absolute slaughter. So no, they were never going to defeat Britain.
>>
>>28272872

They would have survived, but they'd never be able to open the second front the Russians NEEDED.

Only the Americans had the actual manpower and material to do that
