What would the king tiger and tiger along with the panzer look like if they were built today?
basically modernize it.
>>30036182
>Modernize it
>Modernize something 70 years behind the times
>Not just building a new tank from the ground up.
What were you expecting? A Tiger with ERA?
>>30036182
what are all the lines on it?
What is the absolute CHEAPEST one could build an AR for?
never owned one, interested in building one.
>>30036120
Also a filthy jew.
About $600 baseline. Just don't be such a poorfag and swallow the pill.
>>30036120
You could probably build a passable one for like 400 if you really cheap it and know what to do.
You could go for a Vulcan Arms one, if you don't care for quality, or safety.
Would there be anything "wrong" with a military using massive amounts of commercial vehicles, ie SUVs in combat?
Obviously things like Seven Tons, VSRs and MRAPs are not replaceable with commercial vehicles, but I don't see any reason why it wouldn't be possible to use something like a Toyota Forerunner as an ambulance or even as a gun truck. Seems like it's working out fine for ISIL.
Isil isnt fighting anyone with armor or legit anti armor capabilities
>>30036043
This sort of thing is dictated entirely by budget. If that's the best you can afford, then you make due. If you can afford better options, then you use better options.
Replacing soldiers is more expensive than replacing vehicle. Lighlty armored vehicles are a thing, but they need armored v-hulls to survive IED's.
Special forces often use commercial derived offroaders though.
Hey /k/ can you put a under fold stock on a tantal and/or AMD 65?
>>30035983
Maybe
>>30035983
don't see why not, just need some careful cutting
>>30035983
You can do anything you want if you don't fuck up
Hunters of /k/, I am looking at moving up from a .223 to a larger bullet. Primarily, this would be for shooting southern whitetail and wild hogs within 300 yards. I have two options moving forward in semi-autos:
1. Any AR-15 wildcat caliber, something like 6.5x39, 6.8 SPC, or .300 BLK
2. Semi-auto in .308
It appears that a good semi-auto in .308 is going to run around $2500, plus another $500-800 for a good mid-powered optic. A new upper in any of the AR-15 wildcats is closer to $1000, at most.
In your experience, does the wider wound channel and velocity...

For what your shooting, no
Try .264 lbc/6.5 grendel if you don't reload
6x6.8 if you do
>>30035816
IMO no.
>>30035816
>moving up from .223
>for durr
>semiauto
.223 is fine for deer. Buy better glass.
You can get an entry level AR-10 for $900.
Is the C7 a good rifle?
>>30035712
>>30035712
>>30035712
No, M16A2 is superior in every possible way.
It's a great rifle.
>>30035712
It's well made
The syrup optic on it is shit. Specifically external adjustments and the mounting system. The glass is nice

My heart breaks reading this. I'm so sorry Canada bros.
>>30035701
Who cares?
It is what it is, those guys fucked up. Shame really they were really elite guys, just a little fucked in the head.

You
With a lighter, most likely
>>30035717
No, I'm just the range officer that had to stomp it out.
It was fired from a 12 guage and it was not Dragon's Breath.
>>30035744
>someone lit the target on fire and managed to get away without you noticing in the time it took paper and cardboard to burn that far
Yup
Is there any place for the battle rifle in modern warfare? As an infantry rifle, and assault rifle is more effective, and a dedicated marksman's rifle and LMG are both more effective at their intended tasks. What role would a battle rifle actually serve?
>>30035564
shooting people
>>30035564
A DMR *is* a battle rifle.
>>30035564
>dat springer scope mount
Its like you dont want to have groupings anon.
Looking for ideas of ammo people would like to see being tested. I have access to just about every caliber, and a rural area than I can shoot objects not allowed on a state range. Also need ideas for interesting items to shoot.
Will upload videos of good ideas.
>>30035550
how about .30 mauser versus watermelons?
>>30035619
We have a few Tokarevs.
We did make a video shooting a watermelon with a 9mm
>>30035619
Looks like you can shoot mauser out of a Tokarev

I Have $400 to spend. What do I buy?
Hardmode: No nuggets or glocks
>>30035351
Will it be your first firearm?
>>30035351
10/22 or some milsurp
>>30035351
do you want a rifle or pistol? what are you using this gun for?
I just realized I'm a walking /k/ sterotype.
>>30035325
So nugunz?
There's a lot worse things you can be in this world.
Where did this idea that anyone in the army or marines is this near autonomous blood thirsty weapon with legs? Do people not think of soldiers as just being normal folk?
Also is it worth buying a Mosin Chambered in 308. from Cabella's or should i just buy local and go for 7.62 rounds
>>30035237
It came from action movies and the fact that many functioning war heroes were nearly autonomous blood thirsty weapons with legs.
>>30035237
That's what many of us aspire to be, anon
I consider them normal people. Just more vulgar, hornier, and with absolute shit financial sense.
Seems like the coolest law enforcement job
They are the only ones in the world that get to use a sword as it should be used.
>>30035205
Fuck off Achmed.
What kinds of swords do they use?
Are they just glorified machetes?
>>30035205
>only ones
What the fuck did you say to me you little bitch?
/k/ i went out and tried several guns for the purpose of concealed carry and liked this m and p shield with grip extension
Is this gun worth a buy for long-term concealed carry use?
>>30034789
You could do worse.
>>30034789
Taurus Pt-111 g2 is cheaper, no less reliable, not significantly harder to conceal, and a double stack.
The Shield is a good gun, but it has rapidly become a meme in the CCW world.
>>30034789
It's definitely a gun that will always useful in all situations.
There are better guns for certain situations, but a 9mm single stack still holds up well in all situations.
