I like to check Armslist/Gunbroker on the hope I will find a short barrel for my M37 (I don't dare cut it, and I don't really want to give Ithaca $300 for one).
I saw this today. I would like to think it is a joke. I don't think it is.

I have literally never heard of people doing this.
do u think this guy will shoot himself?
>>29484408
he's a three gun competitor.
I'd give it a pretty low chance.
>>29484408
You think he's for real, don't you?
>>29484424
the guy who blew his leg off with an explosive filled lawn mower was a three gun competitor too
Where can I go to learn about military history and weapons technology past present and future?
Since the "History" channel isn't even trying anymore.
I miss being able to turn on the History Channel and Weapons At War would be on.
I also miss Discovery Wings.
History channel documentaries were all propoganda shill anyway
>>29484296
>History Channel
More like the Holocaust Channel, it's all they ever showed besides MASH and shitty movies.

how important is food distribution in the modern battlefield? Couldn't we just have our soldiers source their food locally or scavenge it off the corpses of the enemy?
>>29484141
Why not just have them eat the dead? Food supply is taken care of and so is corpse disposal.
>>29484141
>scavenge it off the corpses of the enemy
Have you ever actually been outside?
>>29484141
No
Foraging or other means of supplying off the local economy is stupid. It is a good way of getting all your soldiers sick or starving because you there is nothing to eat in the war zone.
Soviets tried supply locally in Afghanistan. It went horribly.

She's not ugly per se, and a girl who loves freedom is quite beautiful in the inside.
Bows are weapons right? Bow general I guess.
Anyway while I'm waiting on getting my fun licence all sorted in 'straya, I'm thinking about getting a bow to just pass the time. Anything good to get with a 200 dollar budget? I just want to fling sticks with points at a fast speed :^)
>>29484035
In Australia, you're looking at a little more than that for a bow and arrows as well. It'll be like absolute minimum $200 for the bow (i.e. an entry level wooden recurve), $20-30 for a shooting glove or potentially less for a tab and maybe $100 for half a dozen decent carbon arrows with feathers. Will probably turn out to be around $350 or a little more all up.
>>29484035
bows are for pussy ass bitch niggas lol what the fuck are you gonna do with a bow anyway? fucking faggot, bows don't even have stopping power

Which one would win?
>5 000 Renault FT's or
>1 M1 Abrams
Infinite ammo and fuel, battlefield is several square km's
Wouldn't even need the 120mm. Just use the shell racks for extra .50 barrels.
The best offense for the renault would literally be to somehow surround and then try to crush the abrams through weight.

Any advice on simple G19 additions?
I'd like to un-fuck the trigger and get some better-than-stock sights.
Maybe even a light if I can find the funds later on.
trijicon sights
metal rod+new recoil spring
Nyet, trigger is fine
In the mean time I'll post my lazy attempts at photography.
>>29483892
Trijicon was my first thought, so I'll look around at prices.
I've seen someone take out the rear sight, is the front just as easy?
Also, why a new spring?
We all have heard about polymer framed guns. They've been shown to be reliable over the years. The question I have, is if it would be possible to make a decent frame out of resin infused wood. The resin makes the wood quite a bit more resilient, and wood is much more aesthetically pleasing than polymer. So /k/ is it realistic to make a wood framed gun, assuming you used something like resin infused ironwood? How long would it hold up?
This would obviously cost more than an equivalent polymer frame, I am not asking about using it for a production line, more of as a highly customized (and expensive) option.
Fear of splinters intenseifly
>>29483836
Ironwood's (the desert and black from the USA) are immensely tough timbers, so you wouldn't have to use a resin to reinforce them.
Problem comes down to working them- they'll turn on a lathe really well, but they beat the shit out of your cutting edges. 2nd problem is that the ironwoods are insanely heavy timbers... which isn't a great thing when you're lugging a gun around for any length of time.
Resin infusing timbers, mostly you do that to tool and knife handles with materials...

I picked up this M1A and I'm trying to figure out if all of these parts are original (minus the stock)
I thought a socom ii 16 is supposed to have a rail and synthetic stock, the guy I got this from claims to have purchased it like this. Anybody know what kind of stock this is?
>>29483831
>I picked up this M1A
you mean you bought a chopsaw'd M14 rcvr.....
fuck outta heahhhhh with your .01/10 trolling.
I've shot lots of guns through the years, but never full auto until today; shit was legit.
It was a WWII STEN, btw.
That's nice OP, what did you do afterwards?
>>29483810
How was it?
I always figured id say, "oh! You nasty bitch!".
Did you say anything?
>>29483810
This is the future.
Depending on how it communicates.
If its any flavor of long distance, its jammable. If its direct line-of-sight microwave, or laser, its got a range of 10 miles with a communication mast.
So, your guys are now 10 miles away from the front lines.
>>29483745
Can you bounce microwave signals off the atmosphere with directional antennas?
>>29483790
Yes, but you then require a very large antenna to capture and filter the signals.
A good way to imagine microwave-based telecommunication is with spray paint (see inverse-square law for greater detail). When the paint comes out of the can, it is moving fairly quickly, and is rather densely packed. But as it moves farther from it's point of origin, it begins to have interference, like;

How does a gas mask contaminate ones house?
>>29483464
Asbestos.

Some old ones used asbestos and other not so good components for filtration.
