>In essence, it’s no longer a technological problem to make laser weapons work. It’s one of integration at the service level.

video or bullshit
>we lasers now
seems legit

>lockheed-pewpew
LOL
What does /k/ think of michaelcthulu?
His build videos are super comfy, I must say.
Also, if he scaled his swords down a tad, would the method with which he builds them make them suitable for combat?
>>29289892
Who's that mega autist that's about 400lbs overweight and has his own created accent? Is he any good outside of being cringey as fuck?
>>29289899
I dont know if you mean michael or someone else?
>>29289892
I watched his videos, and he seems pretty cool. At least hes good at something and not some useless neckbeard cringe lord making weird faggoty noises.
What's the point of having those deadly weapons made for carnage if you're never gonna use them?
You can only fantasize about a huge civil war which will never happen.
So tell me, why dou you spend so much money for the only purpose of dreaming?
>>29289747
Because in America you can follow your dream.
>>29289747
Because we like them.
>>29289754
You have my curiosity.
tell me more about that !
>>29289756
I like them too
I have my SIG 550 that I got from the army and sometimes I just want to use it and remove some niggers.
I putted it on my cave because it's tempting me everyday.
Just got this bullshit in my email:
>I am an 8th grade student at McDougle middle school, Chapel HIll North Carolina, and I am doing a project in my English class on how 8th graders can change the world for the better through social media. I've decided to start a petition to strengthen gun laws in North Carolina because I feel that everyone would be and feel much safer if there were stronger gun laws and fewer guns.
Please join me and sign my petition asking Governor McCrory to protect North Carolina families by strengthening gun laws.
Every day in America 89 people die from gun violence. That adds up to over 32,000 deaths from gunshot wounds every year. These numbers show that too many people are dying for senseless reasons.
>Some people, like the National Rifle Association, say Americans need guns to protect themselves. However, data show that more often than not, guns end up hurting the victim rather than the attacker. Even if you do use your gun in self defense, it is unlikely you will successfully fend off the attacker. Furthermore, when your gun is not being used for self defense, it is still very dangerous. A child or even an adult could misfire it and put an innocent life to waste as a result of a senseless act that could have been prevented if that gun had not been there.
I feel like we should make a counter poll.
>>29289338
Alright let's do it. Any write fags on /k/ or am I going have to do this on my own?
>>29289338
>>Continue
>In my very own community of Chapel Hill, there have been two recent tragic stories of gun violence that brought this issue to my home. On Christmas day, a 1-year-old was shot by stray bullets from a passing car when she was playing in front of her house. Also, last year on March 3, three Muslim UNC students were shot because of a conflict over a parking space. These were senseless deaths with loss of promising lives. We need to do everything we can to stop this from ever happening again.
>Just think about how horrible it would be if someone you loved was killed, just because of some guys having fun with a gun in their car or due to an argument over a parking space! If we had stronger gun laws, and fewer guns, there would be a much lower risk of you or a loved one being killed by a gun for senseless reasons.
>In order to stop the deaths caused by guns we need common sense gun laws such as those advocated by North Carolinians Against Gun Violence:
Have stricter background checks when purchasing guns, particularly at gun shows.
Lower the tolerance level for uncooperative gun buyers.
Require county permits for all handguns.
"Family Knows Best" laws that will allow families to notify police when a family member is experiencing a mental health crisis.
Background checks for every single gun sale.
Bans on ammunition magazines that hold more than ten rounds.
>By signing my petition, together we will have the power to ask the governor of North Carolina, Pat McCrory, to pay attention to the way guns are used in North Carolina and to keep all of our families safe.
Thank y'all for the support!(useful idiots)
We need too work again this shit.
>also Le crying Obama
>>29289355
>if we had stronger gun laws and fewer deaths, there will be less gun deaths
What the fuck is it with with these people and 'gun deaths'? Why are 'gun deaths' more inherently evil than any other kind of murder? Why can't they accept that lowering 'gun deaths' does not lower homicide as a total?
Why has the world been so slow to adopt the Osprey?
It's safety record now matches or exceeds that of helicopters.
It's safe enough that the President has multiple of them assigned for travel.
It is versatile and robust.
And it has served long enough that the multiple models are now being designed.
Why the hesitation?
>>29289201
>Why has the world been so slow to adopt the Osprey?
Expensive and occupies a role most militaries haven't really considered
>It's safety record now matches or exceeds that of helicopters.
It's nowhere near as widely used as them, it's a bad comparison to make
>>29289201
Because without the likes of the US's stupendous economy and subsequently enormous military budget, a V-22 costs somewhere around twice as much as a CH-47, and most nations don't need the range or speed the Osprey offers.
So, gripes about the game itself aside.
How would you rank the Division itself in terms of other military forces? Granted the intended role they seem to fill is very specific and I guess they would have much better knowledge on their location vs. sending in a special unit.
>>29288681
I actually really like the game. It's fun to get on with some friends or even play with randoms.
I don't think you really could rank The Division against actual military forces 2bh though. But the game is fun aside from a few bugs.
>>29288681
>hurr durr old government collapsed and everyone is able to own guns and do shit
>HEY LET'S TRY TO REBUILD THE OLD GOVERNMENT AND BRING BACK TIGHT GUN CONTROL FUCK THOSE EVIL PEOPLE IF THEY DON'T AGREE WITH US THEN THEY ARE THE ENEMIES
fuck that anti-gun, BLM pro, Feminist pro, government shilling politically correct shit game!
At least the last of use show us what the government would ACTUALLY do which is inforce shit and take our fun shit away and shoot us if were not good little slaves then.
Also Ubisoft is shit and is forever shit.
>>29288748
Goddamn this a whole lot of this
Especially the assassin creed with it's TL,DR

My girlfriend's friend wrote this article and I need a really good rebuttle because last I heard Hellfire missiles had a better than 50 percent hit rate.
Also plane porn thread if the article doesn't make you mad like it did me.

>Drones = anything but precise
>>29287889
>PGMs are weapons that allegedly – through laser, GPS or satellite technology – minimise the risk of injury or death to civilians by specifically targeting combatants: “putting warheads on foreheads” as US Air Force officers call it. This may sound compelling in theory, but it is important we realise precision targeting is mythical in practice.
This is a US marine apparently according to the accompanying captioned when I saved it.
Any idea what he is?
>>29287794
A US Marine
That K2/203 combo. Lovely.
The dude on the right has a south Korean flag on his helmet, but is using an AUG. I'm all sorts of confused by this

The K*rds are really being chewed up, The fact that they are fielding female troops means that attrition is taking its toll.

Bump for news
Can the US stop an ICBM? Cursory googling has shown it cannot. Is there something up their sleeves we don't know about?
No. Simply put there isn't even close to enough interceptors for the amount of warheads that could come down on us.
> Is there something up their sleeves we don't know about?
Cyber warfare, espionage, intelligence
>>29287696
>Can the US stop an ICBM?
Yes.
>Is there something up their sleeves we don't know about?
Yes.
>be worried that my single stack is lacking in capacity (lc9s)
>look into carrying a double stack
>was already set on the FNS compact, as I have the fullsize and it's amazing
>ends up being too big to get a comfy pinky wrap under the mag, for my hands at least
>gun counter guy whips out a glock 26
>perfect fit, and interchangeable mags gives me a lot of options as far as capacity is concerned
>blue label program makes it cheaper than other options
>there must be something wrong with this gun though, it appears the safety is missing
>gun guy puffs out his chest and tells me every safety cliche there is
>still not buying it, show him videos and stories of how many people have glocklegged themselves
>he goes away and starts ignoring me
I never thought I'd be in the market for one of these, but I really like the smooth features and size of it as a carry piece. Only I'm not shoving this thing in & out of my waistband and risking blowing my ass cheek off.
Anyone have a safety on their glock? I've seen a few different options, the sliderlock (though that seems unsafe) and the one where a thumb safety is actually dremeled out and installed (I'm worried this will be all loose and ghetto). What's the best option?
>>29287230
>What's the best option?
leaving the gun stock and training yourself not to be retarded
KYS
t Glock owner
You seem like the XD type
>>29287230
Step one get kydex holster
Step two buy glock
Step three don't be a retard
I'm picking a g26 and a g19 up later next week
Why does so many hate the F-35?
All arguments I see are mostly just the same shitty rhetorics or misinformed sensationalistic claims coming from RT or Sprey
>muh lemonturkey slow can't turn climb
>muh 1.5 trillion in development
>muh pricey plane
>muh stealth is useless
>muh BRRRT CAS
>muh F-16 dogfight
I have never seen a single legitimate criticism of this plane.
So why does so many laugh at it and say it will be a failure? All from libtard gibmethats to slavaboos?
>>29286776
The media likes to create outrage where none is needed.
There are also plenty of people who are asshurt over the F-35 like Pierre Sprey that the media will listen to.
While legitimate criticism about the plane's performance is almost nonexistent as it outperforms everything it is replacing in almost every category, some of their complaints about the program itself are valid.
>>29286776
You would understand once you pay taxes.
>>29286878
I pay taxes, and I'm completely okay with the program's progress. Maybe if you read up on prior procurement processes, and understood the scope of the project, as well as what is paid for by tax dollars and what is footed by LM you wouldn't run your mouth so easily.
Tell me /k/, why the fuck do people buy Damascus knives? I understand if you just want a wall hanger, but why the fuck would you buy one for use?
Because they open boxes as well as anything
>>29286438
>I like it.
Literally doesn't even have to go farther than that.
>Damascus
Unless the blade is several hundred years old, it is pattern welded steel that shares no commonality with Damascus steel in any way other than appearance.
What was its purpose?
It existed solely so you could post this thread someday, and prove to the modern world that you indeed are a faggot.
>>29286208
Walking fire for true men with grit and balls of steel.
the war before the one it was mainly deployed in.
