Operation Dumpfaust is a-go, effective immediately.
Onward to glory.

My estranged uncle recently passed. Apparently he served in the military while in the UK, some time between 1974 and 1988.
I have literally zero info on his military service. I don't even know which branch of whatever country he served in.
Anyways, my mother gave me two of his old uniforms. They look to be British DPM? I was hoping someone could help me indentify the following about the uniform:
>what country
>what branch
>name of camo
>why's the other uniform is the same only darker
All I know is that it appears to have a corporal's insignia on the shoulder of the lighter uniform.
I know it's a long shot, seeing as though a lot of countries appear to have worn this camo pattern, but I have no other options, all tags are either too worn to read or completely missing.
Check out the camo thread, they know everything

And the lighter one.

Just watched this based movie:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1091191/
I fucking don't get it why it got only 7.5 on IMDB. It kept me holding my breath most of the time.
Anyway, I have also read this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Red_Wings
Which says:
>Shah had with him two videographers during the ambush, and As-Sahab Media released a video of the ambush and the items recovered from the SEALs.
How do I find this based video of the Taliban's ambush to the reconnaissance team?
Can somebody help me?
>>30072395
As per OP
>>30072395
nigger 2 seconds of google gives you the video

did you try the Chichal public library?
maybe get it on the Inter-library loan program, that would save going to the Korangal valley at least.
Which vests and other merchandise is better? The ones from MFH or Miltec? I'm more interested to know which have better vests for combat purposes and if they can accept kevlar/ceramic plates for protection.
Also please do restrict to mainland Europe since im poor eurofag.
Bonus question: should i just buy a second hand genuine military vest? I have the option between osprey and the pic related one.
Thanks in advance.
Also i like these designs as well but they are airsoft tear and i don't think the quality is reliable
>>30072388
>should i just buy a second hand genuine military vest?
Yes.
You can find full IBA sets for ~100 bucks, and slap some 100$ surplus Lv4 plates / AR500 plates in it, and have a good time.
What was the best anti tank weapon of WW2? I heard that the Germans lost partly because they had no good anti tank weapons till 1943, and what they did have was bulky things like this. What was the best weapon, and what do we use today, besides missile strikes?
>>30072353
I like how the soviets used german shepards as AT during ww2
I have also heard that the panzerfaust was pretty damn good, but I think that was invented in 43, don't actually know. Landmines are also probably pretty good anti tank weapons
>>30072353
Best performance and greatest strategic impact of the weapons system are two very different things. That being said the Germans deployed some of the best anti tank weapons in both categories. Flak 88s would rip the shit out of armor that got anywhere close to it, however firing from a fixed position with a slow to move gun that has a high profile generally doesn't bode well. A weapon like the panzerfaust by comparison had very limited range and reliability. However you could produce a million of them and could issue them to soldiers with very little training and still use them to very good effect.
You are somewhat right about early war weapons mostly outdated guns ment for outdated tanks. Most countries had this problem though.
>mfw getting to see a flak 88 fire
Do you think it would be feasible to load ammo using a vice instead of a reloading press?
How much pressure needs to be applied?
>>30072066
Please stop making these shit threads.
Kill yourself at once.
Why aren't the mods handling this shit.
Where the fuck are the janitors.
Fuck you op
No, it would not.
>>30072075
Or you could just, yknow, not be a dick.
I'm watching The Pacific and there's an officer refered to as "Gunny"?
What is he?
Why does he scream a lot?
>>30071957
An E7, two ranks higher than a sergeant
He's an NCO, non commissioned officer, referred to as an enlisted man and not a commissioned officer, referred to as officer
He screams because there are a lot of useless idiots in the world and so little time to correct them.
>>30071957
Marines call Gunnery Sergeants Gunnies. All though it's somewhat a term of endearment as well. For instance many people didn't call one of our Gunnery Sergeants Gunny because he was a dick face.
He screams and throws brass at officers because they don't follow his range rules.
im 20yrs old with 3 years left on my obligation to the usaf and i was wondering army ranger or marine combat engineer
>>30071949
Woah with woah...
Army Ranger is specialized Infantry. Combat Engineer is not even regular Infantry.
What is it that appeals to you about it?
>>30071949
Become my gay butt slut instead faggot
Have fun "defending the USA"...bwahahahahah
And by defending I mean taking part in multiple conflicts that the USA starts whilst letting the nations enemies cross across its borders with NO checks or overwatch. But infact releasing them and then paying them.
yeah enjoy the rangers mureeens or the engineersss.
Hey, /k/ommandos.
I've been tinkering on a pseudo-full stealth Jeep Rubicon. So far, it has bulletproof tires, "stealth" kevlar wheels, RF-absorbent paint, EM-proofing, radar/laser jammers, and hidden deployable road spikes.
I live in NC, and am wordering if it'd be legal to put custom-built machine guns (thinking about .30 or .223) behind the headlights. I'd build a mechanism which would shift the headlights out of the way with the push of a button, and the guns would be exposed, and would shoot at the push of a tact switch.
Is there anything illegal about doing this?

>Is there anything illegal about doing this?

yes
unless you have a ton of money to spend on some already registered ones
saged
>>30071937
it is illegal in every state to mount an operational firearm to a vehicle. if you remove the firing pin and disable the weapon in such a way that you can replace the parts after shtf then youre gold.
So I just got my gun license, and I'm looking at a couple of options here. I have these rifles in my price range, from cheapest to the most expensive, most of them being semi converted milsurp:
VZ 58
GALIL SAR/ARM
FN FAL
and a somewhat more expensive option, about 70% more expensive than the Vz and manufactured as semi
STGW 57
Which one of these rifles should I pick and why? What are their pros and cons? Which has the cheapest ammo in the central europe area?
>>30071924
The best question is where are you?
Galil FAL VZ are better for the US.
If you are in Switzerland then 200 bucks a piece galore as well as cheap ammo, but ONLY Switzerland.
Rest of the world I dont know.
Get an L85A2.
>>30071965
Czech Republic is where I am at. So all ammo is expensive for me, it kinda boils down to the rifles. Of course, 7,5 swiss is probably the hardest to come by.
>>30071978
However much I'd like a bullpup, you can't get one here. Pretty sure brits deactivated most of theirs.
Fuck brits.

i have the the second one but the manual looks like 3 minus the pistol grip.
I'm going through the manual and beginning to think Walmart gave me the wrong box with the wrong manual. the inside of the barrel looks different than what im supposed to remove in the picture & im running into trouble with the slide lock. it was the display one and the guy originally came back with the completely wrong box (20 gauge). i just want to know the damn thing works
>>30071886
Nice blog post.
>>30071926
im looking for advice, i just want to use this gun & it seems i have the wring manual
>i want to use this gun
>but wrong manual
Er, what?
People actually fucking read those?
you can probably get a pdf for it on the internet.
>Get conscripted
>get stationed in NLL (northern limit line)
>will probably die from nork patrol boats for midget sub

It's only 2 years Chol Soo. You'll be fine.
