Do marines/army(jnb4 REE DER DIFRENT BRUH) ever babysit drunk as shit soldiers? Because I've got a fucker snoring the fuck out of my floor and he puked all over an uber.
I'm also drunk but apparently a lot less drunk and he's not dead because he has a towel under his neck and is snoring like a motherfucker.
>tfw i apparently passed out for an hour at his place, told him to call an uber, he ordered a round of 9%abv beers, then 5 attempted uber rides later he's asleep on my fucking floor. Florida btw, rum and camo solve all this monday.
>>29265702
if he has any friends yes, they will. the problem is that it depends on if his friends know he's there or if the person who picks up the phone at the base wants to be a bro or an asshole. what people in his unit don't want is punishment so if they know this guy would get them smoked because he got drunk as fuck they'll try to sober him up and keep the whole thing quiet
>mfw I'm nursing a drunk vet who drank so much alcohol he started hallucinating and speaking word salad
>all I can do is watch star trek while he mumbles about killing haji in his sleep
>>29265702
Are Uber any good?
sounds a littel fishy to me
Is there any reason to buy snap caps for anything that's not a pistol when you can just pull the firing pin out of the bolt?
>inb4 live ammo always dangerous no matter what
At gunshows or private sellers some people dont like you dry firing their guns so thats a way to dry fire without potentially damaging the gun(if its rimfire)
>firing pin hitting snap cap is safe.
>firing pin hitting nothing will break it.
people who think this are retarded.
>>29265051
I don't understand the question. What does something being a pistol or not have to do with whether or not snap caps are useful? You can pull the firing pin out of some handguns, and can't pull it out of some rifle and still have it function.

Does it cut the bullets into smaller bullets so you can shoot like 5 people every time you shoot it?
thoughts on tannerite?
it makes boom bredddy good
>>29264321
I was at an out door range when some fucks put a bunch of it in a small cabinet and ended up launching a nice sized chunk of wood straight through the back windshield of someone's keep in the parking lot. Narrowly missed the owners head. It's pretty cool shit when morons arn't using it.

What is /k's opinion on the medieval trident?
Was it pratical?
Efective?
What countered it?
What did it counter?
>>29264171
>Medieval
>>29264171
Trident was a Roman Era gladiator weapon
It looks intimidating but is less effective than your average spear, aside from spearing fish that is
>>29264171
I supposed they used those medieval tridents on their medieval chariots when fighting the medieval Hyksos.

Bought a 8mm mauser today. While waiting in line for the lane to clear the chuckle fud behind me asked what i was getting.
>Oh the 8mm Mauser right there
>"What cha want a nazi gun fee?"
>Uwot.jpg
>Oh just target shooting, maybe hunting if i ever get the mind fer it
>"8mm Mauser for a DEER?! You'll blow it away and only have antlers left!"
>Mfw
Ya'll got any new stuff? Also pic related, .22hmr acts like a 40mm apparently

Kek, sorry, here
>>29264169
that underwear is disgusting
the fuckers actually did it, theyre closing Chabot gun range
inb4 cry more and move away from san francisco, theres loads of people here who want to keep it open
The biggest turnout EVER to a public comment parks meeting, over 80% in support of keeping the place open, and the whole parks board votes unanimously to close it
The petition was 8000 signatures for keeping open, and the competing anti-petition got 300, and from their comments a lot of them were confused old fudds that signed the wrong one
Theres going to be a whole generation of kids raised here that have no place to go shoot. I'm sick of this fucking plan to end an entire way of life--this range has been here since the 1960s. A whole generation with no way to begin to question the anti-gun sentiment so common around here
At least California is doing its part to save me from lead exposure and cancer. No literally, thats the board's rationale
Goddamn /k/ how do I stop feeling so tread upon
Pic unrelated, its the model of Tikka T3 I will be using to remove oink this year once the 10 day, please reconsider your murderous ways wait period is over
Didn't that corrupt crime ridden shitty also close its only gun store down?
>>29264069
Living in Washington the gun laws here are exactly spectacular, but I feel so lucky when I see people post about the shit they have to deal with in Commiefornia.
>>29264112
Yeah.
Given the resent wars in Afghanistan and Iraq I am curious about what changes veterans would make on the tactical level to improve the fighting capability of the infantryman. I also have some ideas and I wanted some critique.
>Give all dismounted squads operating in rough terrain one BigDog quadruped robot. (we should have done this back in 2005).
>Have a strictly enforced policy that prevents any soldier from carrying a combat load over 50lb. It is a joke to think infantrymen can maneuver when carrying 120lb each.
>ditch the metric ton of SIGINT & ELINT with a single quadcopter for each squad.
>design a bullet for the 5.56 & 7.62 cartridge that can penetrate level 4 armor at minimum 200m (In this age anyone can buy armor).
>if this is not possible develop a new intermediate NATO cartridge that can.
>seriously start to invest in the XM25, all indicators show that it has great potential.
>I've heard we still have issues with comm reliability, there is no excuse for this in the 21st century.
Last (not really tactical but still important)
>Have unconventional warfare be the primary focus of all except for one light infantry division. Justification being that in conventional conflict light infantry only has the advantage over mech in air assault and mountain warfare.
Also I'm wondering whether paratroopers are still viable in today's age.
>>29264006
They'll just keep doing what they're doing. Pin them down and then call for arty and/or CAS.
>>29264006
>I hate money and love getting raped by congressional committees, special interest groups, and porkbarreling senators, the post. Seriously, nigger? I swear to god, if you knew how much fucking wrangling even one of those asinine requests would take, you would shit yourself. Oh, and here's a scary thought; what if, instead of rolling up onto a Congolese robotics appreciations board with your half-baked opinions, (culled from the same board) you asked the troopers what they needed to operate in their environs and provided that on a divisional, situational, budget-based basis? Holy Jesus.
All hail the Departmento Munitorum.

who's done mods to their guns?
to what gun and what mods?
any triggers or furniture you'd recommend?
>>29263910
You should have specified no AR-15's because thats all this thread will be
>>29263962
>implying the thread wasn't DOA
>>29263910
i modded my daily carry gun to have a 1 1/2 lbs trigger pull, extended magazine, and punisher backplate.
Are Zenitco Parts worth the price?

To me, it takes away from what an ak is supposed to be. I am a poorfag, and I bought a saiga back when they were $350 and converted it. Even cheap aks these days are probably not worth the money. I love my saiga, but if I had the cash I would get something better.
Hello /k/omrades,
Over the past few months I've felt like my interest in buying new guns/shooting has gone down a lot. I've start doing other things and it hasn't been a priority. I guess it's a little depressing because I used to be so into it. I used to want all the last news, any little bit of knowledge I could find. Now, I haven't shot any guns for almost 2 months. I still love them and respect them, but I hope I can find more interest in them. Have any of you felt like this?
Side note:
/k/ is still by far my favorite board and the one I consider home.
I post on /o/ more now, but every single fucking thread is an absolute tard fight.
>>29263257
Yes
I simply haven't found the time to renew my range membership, and it's pretty hard to justify because range dues are fairly expensive ($150) Hell, it's been so long I forget how much my range charges.
I haven't shot in over a year. Feels bad man
>>29263257
Literally the only reason I buy the guns I do is because one day I won't be able to buy the ones I want.
If there were no constant threat of bans, constantly spewed misinformation, and so on...I'd have like one pistol to carry and I don't know maybe the 10/22.
I feel like this right now, too. Even though I'm getting far more money at my current job than my last one, I'm less interested in guns than before.
I used to love guns of all sorts and sizes, but now I'm pretty much exclusively into milsurp and 1911s and want to own guns more for their history than anything.
/k/ is always my go-to "bored" site though. Every other board is so child-like. Some of the best internet-related memories I had were of night /k/, shooting the shit over nothing in particular, not even gun-related, just down to earth storytelling and jokes.
This is the third installment of the tweaker roommate chronicles. I posted a few threads earlier about my suicidal roommate that was trying to kill himself with my guns. Well this is how it ended (I hope it's fucking over at least)
>dead tired last night, worked until 6am and only got an hour of sleep before because the fire truck woke me up (he tried to kill himself on our driveway)
>apparently the cops were banging on our door looking for him, I'm the only one home and I'm basically dead
>they somehow got in without breaking the door down (do cops pick locks?)
>wake up to unrecognized dudes screaming ANYBODY HOME?! ANONTOWN PD!!!
>I freak out and yell GET THE FUCK OUT I HAVE A GUN!!! because I don't believe they're the cops
>OMG HE SAID GUN, OUT OUT OUT!!!
>look out my window, see 3 cops running and hiding behind their cop cars, apparently they are indeed cops
>fuck what have I done! call 911 and tell them I was just startled
>SIR AT THIS TIMR YOU NEED TO COME OUT WITH YOUR HANDS UP, DO NOT MAKE ANY SUDDEN MOVEMENTS
>I'm fucking shaking, slowly walk downstairs literally about to cry on the phone with the dispatcher
>by the time I get down there there's like 8 police cars
Cont.
Things that didn't happen. Go make a tumblr if you want to blog about your stupid fantasies. Link to news story or kill yourself.

Eat shit, this has been an interesting series of minor events
Its no clankening but its still good
Is it ethical/humane to hunt with FMJ?
As long as you follow up with throwing your rifle at it bayonet first I don't see the problem.
Probably not that humane or ethical. Not like most people really care about that, though.
Are you capable of putting a bullet through the heart of whatever you are shooting at the distance you're shooting? Are you always shooting against a perfect backstop? Then by all means, do so.
But both of those things aren't guaranteed, so don't do it.
Is it possible for a single well trained, well informed assassin to disable a battleship?
Perhaps swimming up close with scuba gear, boarding up the side, and then killing one of the crew members for his uniform?
Then proceeding to sneak into the engine room to do some sabotage, permanently crippling the ship and disabling it. Or maybe taking out the ship's electrical system. Or blowing the weapons cache. Or poisoning the food so the crew members all die. Or taking out the navigational and communications system so the ship is directionless.
Then with a job well done, slipping back into the water before the crew knows what hit them.
What are the single points of failure on a large warship? Or an aircraft carrier? How much damage could a well-informed, well-trained saboteur actually do?
If you were planning such an operation, what would your strategy be?
>>29262870
If he got really lucky then I guess it's maybe possible, otherwise no.
I would use an anti ship missile. Don't even have to get out of my bath robe and slippers to push the button either.
>>29262870
Go home ISIS, you know you don't even know how to swim
what is the best gun for under $300??
What do you want it to do?
>>29262846
shoot bullets reliably.
>>29262857
So a better question would have been: "What is the most reliable gun for under $300?"
