Are fat people more bullet proof?
more penetration needed to reach vitals
they'll probably bleed the same if not more
>>29468095
Yes.
Instead of wearing kevlar we should be eating burgers and fries, I guess
Have you gotten your milsurp yet?
meme'd my package right the fuck up
what could it be??
Manly shorts for manly men, austrian pants + shirt, and some badges, thats right!
I have only owned a Ruger (pos) 9mm before and decided to go with this Beretta. Is it /k/ approved?
>>29467698
They're nice guns. Only downside is those shit stock grips, they feel terrible in your hands. change them out and it is 10/10
>>29467698
I'm not a fan of DA/SA or slide mounted safeties or aluminum frames or those fat grips, but Beretta makes a quality product.
>>29467704
Thanks, good to know. I like how the grip feels. It's nice and heavy and seems to be built really well.
Instead of semi-auto ones?
If you miss the shot, you are fucked aren't you.
While with a semi-auto you can give fast consecutive shots.

>While with a semi-auto you can give fast consecutive shots.
And that's not an important requirement for a sniper. The military is naturally conservative when it comes to procurement. If there is no clear advantage to getting something different, they usually don't bother. Now, SOCOM does make extensive use of semi-auto sniper rifles like the SR-25.
>>29467691
Can we put the answer to this in the sticky so there's not a damn thread about it every day.
>>29467691
semi auto are designated marksman rifles
bolt action are still used because less moving parts = more accuracy
Realistically speaking, could a lone guy win over multiple people (from 3 to 5) in a firefight?
considering he has better training and guns
does better training and guns give you better chances to win when you're outnumbered, or are you dead anyway?
>>29467521
Yes

1 vs 3-5 guys in an open field
1 is probably going to lose
3-5 guys enjoying a drink, and 1 gets the drop on them
I think 1 has a very good chance
3-5guys actively searching for 1 in a dark mazelike environment
I'm not sure
Overall OP I think it's more about the circumstances and environment that determine the victor
Anyone know much about the S&W Model 59? My dad has one and its pretty fuckin' fantastic. Wondering if there's much aftermarket or any improvements that can be made. If I can talk him into it, I'll probably end up buying it from him.
Also, fuck off Nick.
Best improvement you can make is buy a 1911.

What nationality? My guess is French.
>>29467373
I looked at the French MILES helmet sensors the have two vertical black dots. So I don't think French. Looks like he is wearing wet weather gear over a uniform with MILES sensors over that.
>>29467373
No idea reverse search says its french too but i'm not sure

How good are Chinese planes really? Have they ever been used in combat? How can a country without even a domestic automotive industry let alone aeronautics industry make fighter jets?
>>29467241
Every single thing you just asked and said is incredibly stupid.
>>29467241
their kinda shit, but they will do the job vs countries like north korea, russia or india.
>>29467241
They can't make engines. That's their biggest handicap by far.

People who keep posting these tiny pics will be the first against the wall.
Every time I see games recommended on /k/ it's always PC titles like STALKER and ARMA saturating the lists.
Call me old, call me poor, call me a backwoods hick.
I've never owned a computer that could reliably play games more advanced than emulated SNES titles.
I've never had any luck installing or playing a computer game from a disc.
I don't have an internet connection in my own home.
Even if I could get it to work I'm sure I could never get used to using keyboard and mouse touch pad controls.
tl;dr what are the best /k/ approved...

What console? As far as realistic they aren't too on point but the weapons are nice and the gameplay is fun so I always recommend farcry 3 and 4, additionally the scenery for both is gorgeous

A quick question /k/ on the military tactics of the Napoleonic era.
Was there any specific tactical advantage to that time periods love of huge lines of men standing in front of each other in plain sight and firing? Was it just the gentleman pathos that seemed to dominate the era, as I could never wrap my head around the reason for such tactics. Smaller units using cover, actually going to ground while firing to minimize their silhouette would seem to have been a more advantageous approach. I am really weak when it comes to knowledge of that time period, so I figured...

The uniforms were bright colors because the smoke of all that black powder tended to make things hard to see, and added to the confusion that already exists in battle conditions.
Being able to maintain control and communications during a battle was well worth it.
>>29466137
Big line o guys is because of weapons available, and gun formations developing out of pike formations
>>29466137
and how would you manage such an army without modern radios?
