What the fuck is wrong with our military and it's fucking stupid uniforms? What was wrong with the USAAF Pinks and Greens?

This is the second time in two years that F.E. Warren has been under investigation: In 2014, missile officers responsible for actually launching those ICBMs were caught cheating on their proficiency tests and also doing a lot of illegal drugs.
Why did it take so long for gun makers to start using double stack magazines? It seems like a pretty simple design. Did somebody patent it in 1890 and then they had to wait for the patent to expire in the 70s?
Lee-enfields had a double stack in 1900. It mostly arises from two things; need and ease of manufacturing. Remember 30rnd magazines for intermediate cartridges didn't become the norm until the 1960s, before then an single stack did just fine because space was not an issue for a lower cap mag.

For the record, he was was quoting what someone had said to him.
>>29302411
Was he? That changes my thoughts on the matter then.
I have a very close friend who lived in west Sacremento ( Its fucking frightening down there.) and he's whiter than fucking white, so hearing this "whites don't know poor" stuff always kills me.
What are /k/'s thoughts on UMP?
Meme trash
Dunno. Personally I think the mp5 is prettier
>>29302279
The CZ EVO3A1 is better and probably cheaper. The only thing the UMP has going for it is the option for .45 ACP chambering and that doesn't really matter to anybody outside of the American market. And the American market prefers AR anyway.
/K/ommandos, convince me that this is not the absolute best SHTF rifle for an American.
Pros:
>Indestructable AK
>Infallible AK
>Ubiquitous AR mags
>Ubiquitous AR ammo
>Square back receiver for easily replaceable furniture
Cons:
>Unnecessarily thick/heavy 1.5mm receiver
>Is an abomination
>Imported by Century?
>>29301834
It's slavshit. Why would an American want one?
>>29301834
It is so unbelievably hideous that I'd actually rather die in a SHTF scenario than use it
>>29301834
If you put a metal side folder and some wood or orange Bakelite on it would look pretty nice.

I don't understand how you have such a low chance of dying/getting hurt as an 11b infantryman. Everyone says that you'll most likely be fine, but how can that be true when your job is to seek out and engage armed terrorists in gunfights? How can a job where you kick down doors and clear buildings be "pretty safe"? Can someone explain this to me?
Hello /k/, I bought an SKS recently and was wondering if you could answer a couple ammo questions.
1. What ammo brands should I avoid? The nearest shop that sells 7.62x39 only had like three brands last I looked; Norinco in grey boxes, PPU, and some other absurdly expensive brand.
2. Is it cheaper to buy ammo in bulk online and eat the high shipping, or to buy it in person, buying a couple boxes as I need them? The aforementioned store sells 20rd boxes for around $12 a box.
Much appreciated!
>>29300787
Buy in bulk online, always steel, from ammoseek.
Cntrl f. "Free"
Find free shipping that equates to near the top round/per cent.
>>29300787
Have you considered reloading?
>>29300807
Generally I end up being too poor to afford the reloading rigs. Plus I don't think I shoot enough to justify it.

Doesn't talk about them cutting orders anywhere in article.
Mainly because they never actually settled on a number in the first place.
Moreover, even their maximum possible buy wasn't for very many units, definately incapable of contributing to a "death spiral".

No wonder, for this price they could buy a Bentley for every resident in China.
What's the chance of getting a waiver for a generally moderate stutter in the Air Force?
You need a waiver for stuttering? And pretty decent you can get a waiver for everything pretty easily. There was this one fatass in my bmt flight who had a stress waiver.
>>29300259
retardation unfortunately is not allow in military. even if your caretaker signed over rights im not sure. but studdering is cause by slow mental development so asvab probably would fail too.
as a handycap person myself i am not aying this to be mean but it needs to be faced
>>29300259
How about you chop that retarded tongue right outta your face. Who needs one when it was given to you defective anyway? Be a man.
Hey /k/
my retarded weed dealer left his gun in my car and im gonna keep it because he has no idea where i live.
the gun is fucked up because it's a .45 single action revolver but he was shooting 44 mag out of it.
there are three 44 mag brass casings stuck inside the revolver that i cant get out and apparently he couldnt either since they're stuck inside.
this is my first gun so im gonna take it to a gunsmith to see if it can be fixed. do you guys think it can be fixed?
It'll probably still function, but don't expect it to win any awards anymore.
Let's get a private gun sale stories thread going.
