Brazil will have a national nuclear submarine soon.
With a nuclear submarine, will Brazil be considered a military superpower?
>>29905162
No.
>>29905162
Only the USA is currently a super power, Brazil is not even a global power.
>>29905162
It won't work.
The Brazilians will falter when they find out you can't impeach atoms apart.
Are Hi-points actually any good or are they just a meme?
>>29905102
Their pistols are pretty shit in terms of quality, but have a very low price point and an excellent warranty. If you can get past the fact that they're ugly as sin, there's no reason not to get one if you can't afford anything else.
On the other hand, their carbines are supposed to be pretty good quality and a fine value if you want a rifle that shoots 9mm. Still ugly though.

As a left-handed shooter, I prefer the Taurus curve
>>29905102
That's clearly a problem solving Glock .40
Howdy /k/ Just got home from cabelas doing some gun browsing and I spotted a Mauser 98 for $450. Stock was a little beat up but that's about it. All numbers matching. Is $450 a good deal?
>>29905050
>of the massive number of variants of g98s I found one.
>without knowing anything about it what is it worth?
>>29905050
Op here. the rifle was made in 1939

How did shipboard anti-aircraft weapons move around to track airplanes? Were they motorized? Or just really well lubricated and balanced and man-powered?
I'm thinking about something like pic related. How would you move the thing to take out a 300 mph diving kamikaze plane?
>>29904895
Wait there were black sailors?
>>29904901
i dunno, probably not. it looks like these guys were testing it after installing it or something.
>>29904895
Smaller ones were man-operated, anything above 20mm was usually motorized/hand cranked.
Well. My college grades are shit and my parents may kick me out soon. Are there any a
anons who know how to join the YPG or similar forces in syria? I don't want to live anymore and I want to die for something worth fighting for
>>29904884
do you have military experience? if not, youll probably be relegated to a support role. so ive heard anyway.
alternatively, stop being a drama queen, study harder and find a new place to live.
Soon you'll just fade away...

As we all know Jason Blaha is the worst fraud in the entire fitness industry but now he is trying to break into the weapons industry too. He is a complete fraud who knows nothing about weapons or tactics.
He recently did a video claiming he was hired by president Bill Clinton to kill drug king pins in the 90s in South America. Worse than that he told all veterans to go "Fu*k themselves"
We need everybody to dislike every video he has posted and let him know what we think of this disgusting behaviour

>>29904642
I'd rather not give his video any views then.
Also, not your personal army
>>29904642
Disliking videos is still promotion for them. YouTube literally pays him more when you do it.
Also, not your personal army.

Are there any good bullet proof vests for dogs that dont break the bank?
Mostly for hunting safety and maybe whatever shtf situation you believe in.
>bullet-proof dog
This kills the ATF
>buy doggo kevlar or plates
>make sbr without cuckstamping it
HAHA GET FUCKED FEDS

The BTR-82A; what do you think?

I'd say abrams BTFO once again
Decent armored vehicle.

Thats a very weird looking lada
Other than the cast receiver, no carry handle slot, and the $1000 tag,
What's the downside to the FAL Voyager line from DSA?
Sure I can take this to BRG, but they're too busy.
Cast FAL receivers are not the pot-metal Glocknade that their detractors make them out to be, but they will have a somewhat shorter lifespan. You will probably ruin the rest of the rifle before that happens, though.
>>29904484
This is what I've been hearing as well. For an average shooter, it'll still last you a lifetime.
>>29904451
Just get a ptr or save up $200 more for a mp10

So i might be moving to San Antonio in a couple of months due to my job. Any /k/ommandos live there or have lived there before and can give me some info about the city, surrounding communities, good ranges to go to and ranges to avoid?
>>29904292
I've never shot around here, but I can tell you New Braunfels, Seguin, Schertz, and Greune (noticing a trend? save for seguin...) are all worth taking a few day trips to. (maybe not Seguin if you don't like hispanics)
In terms of the city of San Antonio, if you haven't taken a day to walk around downtown, you should, as its best to learn firsthand what the city has to offer. You've got a few missions scattered around the place, the Alamo in all its glory, a few historic places to visit,...

I think Zed is there. You could hang out with him.
>>29904835
Thank you. Very helpful! I will keep all of this in mind.
>>29904868 Not sure who Zed is.
Has there been a single historical example of an armed populace defeating an occupying force without being supplied/organized/trained/militarily aided by a foreign power?
There are numerous ongoing conflicts that never ended.
The Moro conflict comes to mind. Some of them are funded by isis but some have no affiliation and still fight with knives.

Is the 10/22 a reliable firearm?
Would you consider it as your innawoods rifle?
>>29904128
>reliable
The gun is, yes. But it is only as reliable as the ammo used.
>innawoods
Bear country woods? Ummm, no.
>>29904128
I prefer guns that can kill
>Inb4 anecdotes of people getting shot in vital areas at close range and the bullet going in just deep enough to do damage

I am now mildly curious at what the average number of .22lr shots it would take to stop a bear
You will never be an operator. How will you cope?
>Tiger Woods, an athlete who at one time dominated his sport like few athletes in history, wishes he'd just enlisted in the Navy and become a SEAL. Woods talked openly to friends and confidants about enlisting in the Navy. "It was very, very serious," the friend says. "If he had had a hot two years and broken the record, he would have hung up his clubs and enlisted. No doubt." Once, Carroll had to talk him down via text message, according to someone present for the exchange,...

the guy was a beast. too bad no matter how much he has accomplished, he will never operate.
Tiger and a group of five or six SEALS went to a diner in La Posta. The waitress brought the check and the table went silent, according to two people there that day. Nobody said anything and neither did Tiger, and the other guys sort of looked at one another.
Finally one of the SEALs said, "Separate checks, please."
The waitress walked away.
>"We are all baffled," says one SEAL, a veteran of numerous combat deployments. "We are sitting there with Tiger f---ing Woods, who probably makes more than all of us combined in a day. He's shooting our ammo, taking our time. He's a weird f---ing guy. That's weird s---. Something's wrong with you."
I think that was when he realized, he would never operate.

>"Tiger Woods never got wet and sandy," says former SEAL and current Montana congressman Ryan Zinke, who ran the training facility during the years Tiger came around. The BUD/S instructors didn't like the way Tiger talked about how he'd have been a SEAL if he didn't choose golf. "I just reached out to the guys I know who jumped with him and interacted with him," says a retired SEAL. "Not a single one wants to have any involvement, or have their name mentioned in the press anywhere near his. His interactions with the guys were not always the most stellar, and most were very underwhelmed with him as a man."
