Why do "futurists" get military technology advancements wrong every single time?
>>30502378
same reason ALL scifi & future predictions fail:
Unpredicted appearances of brand new "element X", that the people at the time could not have even imagined existing.
In our time's case, the IT technology, wireless technology, and the networks related to both started evolving and spreading so rapidly, that for the past 30 years, anything made a decade earlier is almost always obsolete.
It's one of the reasons why the so-called "retro futures" are so fascinating and once again feel fresh in fiction, as they might just as well be alternative universes or timelines to us.
Early 1900s people thought the future was all about personal flying gadgets and super complicated machines that'd do things like barber visits or teaching kids as simple as sowing crops with steam-engine devices. 1950s predicted everything to be about "NUCLEAR POWERRR", and 60s-70s was "space EVERYTHING!".

Makes you wonder how horribly wrong we'll have got things when we look back about twenty years down the line.
>>30502378
None of that is bad for 2030, though. All the elements exist; they're just used differently because futurists don't consider ergonomics or talk to the actual end-users.

AA are the best but most expensive
CProduct are epoxied instead of welded and can fall apart but ez fix if you have a welder.
PCV are really thick poly and can get stuck in some magwells.
Have yet to try IMI.
How would you try to rationize gun ownership of the civilian population; to another country?
>>30499788
Freedom matters more than security. People who disagree are whiny babies.
Also, no one is responsible for your own safety but you.
>>30499788
You know it's funny how it's a-okay to show a white guy missing teeth and having inbred ears but if you showed a black guy in a political cartoon with a big gold grill and a nappy head of hair the nig nogs would throw a fit.
Also I don't need to rationalize shit, faggot.
>>30499788
Collection, hunting, hobbies (Including competitive sports) and self defense. Really, that's all there is, m8. Japan should just reduce their restrictions since they're fucking over the country folk and the people interested in sports shooting. Why do you think the JDSF is full of gun otakus?

For fuck's sake, if this board is going to be full of generals then you may as well do it right and make a neutral OP.

Just for you, Mr. Faggot.
What's the Kekiest thing to have happened in the history of war?
I think the Palestinians win the prize for this one. They built two car bombs but they detonated early, killing only the drivers, because they forgot to set the timers on the bombs for daylight savings time. They won a Darwin Award for it.

Whats the most expensive accessory on your rifle?
>>30482823
SCAR owners really will do anything to get rid of the boot. I don't blame them, for the price it should look pretty and come with a cup holder.
>>30482823
>Whats the most expensive accessory on your rifle?
Take your pick.

pretty beast dude, good work. I've got some models coming next week and I can't wait : ). I haven't made any models since I was 12 or 13.
I've been wanting to move out of CA my whole life but ever since this recent infringment of our freedoms by Jerry Brown I think I am actually serious. What is a good place to move to that is relatively close to CA and has good gun laws like permit-less carry. I would be looking for work as an Electrician so it would have to by a big city with lots of work, preferably an expanding city. I always voted against these horrible laws but now it seems to have made no difference and I have officially given up all hope for CA.

Move to a swing state and for fucks sake NEVER VOTE FOR DEMOCRATS AGAIN so the disease stops spreading.

Hate to be that guy but a tavor with some upgrades
Are you averse to bullpups?
>>30518518
AR-18
The only reason it failed commercially was because there was a conspiracy by Colt and the Military to make sure it failed.
Who else has theirs?
>>30517416
I didn't even know those were out. How much was it?
>>30517416
What gun is that?
Other side
Was planning to obtain new toy recently, everyone bugging the fuck out after Orlando caused Atlantic to stop sales for a bit though, which meant Christmas was delayed.
Sales reopened but toy was more expensive, figured they'd just give it to me for original price since it was their stop-sale that kept me from getting it anyway. Was still going to buy it regardless, just being a Jew like always.
Got back this response though (pic related).
Is this fucking real life? I mean, I get it. They are busy and shit, but there is an expected level of professionalism, right? Or am I just being an unreasonable cunt? Anyone else have weird experiences like this?
>>30516554
Sounds patently true. STFU and quitcherbitchin.
>>30516554
>Or am I just being an unreasonable cunt

op is a fag
the cs rep could have articulated a response in a more professional manner, but yes, you should just move on.
