Does conventional military action against insurgent style groups work?
Discuss
When collateral damage isn't an issue, sure. When hands are tied by insane ROE and politicians, not so much. just my opinion but what the fuck do I know.
>>27902650
The US can prevail because we are the US. But it really makes shit more difficult. I should have 2 kills overseas but I only have 1 because of fucking ROE's.
Not if you don't kill all of them, and I do mean all of them. How likely is that? Exactly.
Then again, dumb Muslims aren't the only insurgents anyone has ever seen. Opposing authority isn't necessarily a bad thing.
why dont you own a shield /k/

Hey, remember during the clankening when everyone wanted one of those Berkut riot shields? I still want one though...

Alright does /k/ hunt if so for what with what? Any trophy photos or good stories? I am just relaxing on a slow evening in the bow stand.
ITT we talk about /k/unting
Nobody hunts on here? : (
>>27902876
I hunt in the fact that I kill animals with weapons.
But I am hesitant to consider it "Hunting" because it is really me running around my property with a fuckload of ammo killing everything that has a pulse

Only gun season. So this Saturday.
Sighting in on Wednesday.
Really stupid question.
I have a pistol permit
I would like to buy a used revolver.
Do most gun stores have a "used" section? Do I use something like Gunbroker, and have them ship to my local firearms shop?
How the hell can I determine the quality of a used pistol from an online or in-person sale?
thanks!
>>27902257
My store has a used section and consignment section.
You'll want to check the cylinder timing, bore, crane, and rifling. google the used revolver buyers guide infographic, it will show you how. Good choices are police trade ins, Worn finishes but great condition generally.

most stores have used sections.
Some stores like pawn shops appreciate it when you do a transfer through them and give them the free transfer cash. actual gun stores that mark their weapons up to high hell get annoyed if you try and do a transfer through them instead of buying their over priced merchandise.
just my experience... but i have yet to find a good deal at a gunstore and only do online transfers nowdays. ofcourse, you are not able to put the gun in your hands ect. but this has been my experience
>>27902257
In my experience there it not a dedicated used section
The just group the different types/brands
But you can easily ask to be shown used revolvers

I use the MAB Model D for CC. It's pretty obscure. You've probably never heard of it.

When riding one's authentic antique velocipede around downtown Portland, only a Velo Dog will do.

How many people in Portland actually carry? I work as a Security Officer on the East side by the Airport, and its a scary place in Gresham. I'd like to know how safe I am with you guys walking around.
why were there so many more casualties at Omaha beach then the other beaches? Bad planning, better defenses?
>>27901654
Better defenses.
Americans can't fight unless they have a 70+ year tech advantage.

Pretty sure last one was archived, but I can't find it
But I wanna talk about pic related and I wanna share ideas for a modern, tacticool polymer design based on these and other bullpup rifles
Here's my idea:
This could be a really neat polymer design, just implement the curves of the F2000 with some accents from the AUG, and have versions of both 7.62x39 and 5.45 and boom, easy build, easy import.. I hope..
Just excuse the hand-drawn autism that is poorfag me because it was drawn freehanded..
old one is still up

What makes an AK a bad AK?
>>27901214
Being wielded by a kebab, or having canted sights and improperly heat treated parts.
>>27901214
By being an AK.

If it says I.O. or Century on it.

What is the rage these days, what is the new favorite marketing buzzword?
Platform annoys the hell out of me. Especially when it's used to describe older firearms.
>>27901133
>Lightweight
>modular
>sleek
Nothing wrong with these designs in principle, but they are the new buzzwords as everything is supposed to be ultralight now

What are the pros and cons of SBRs and SMG?
Why would you choose one over the other?
What would be the best SBR for police swat use?
>>27900739
is round count or terminal performance more important?
you could carry an awful lot of 9mm compared to 5.56x45 y'know
but a 5.56x45 SBR is more effective than a 9mm SMG.
>>27900800
9mm and .223 weigh the same though, essentially.
>>27900806
well that sucks then, fuck 9mm
