Thinking about changing my carry ammo to these bad motherfuckers. My current carry ammo in my P938 is Federal HST 124 grain.
>pros
Higher raw kenetic energy by ft lbs
Still has '18 of penetration
Produces 3 seperate wound cavaties at least '8 in diameter, and 8' penetration
Higher chance of hitting a vital organ like the heart, liver, lungs, or spine; even with poor shot placement
>cons
???????
Hmmmm... Looks like the G2 rip concept but it doesnt suck

I don't think you understand how to interpret ballistic test data.
Is there an app that will give measurements for how a sight picture will look based on input like sleeve length and sight radius?
I might

but the heights are different. Don't you want them to be the same. How do I know what thicknesses will give the air gap I want. They'll be apart on the slide so it's not like you can just measure and take the difference flatly?
I don't know about all that math shit, but I do like me some warren tactical sights.

Odd, that picture was actually helpful. Thanks for the post.
This is what I mean, should I just calculate for 2 isosceles triangles to figure it out?
Should I get a S&W M&P 15-22, 10/22, CZ 452, or something else?
>>29142631
>CZ 452
If you can afford this, then yes... That is the obvious choice...
>>29142666
>obvious
Really? I can get the ultra lux for around 420 dollars. The M&P 15-22 is like 360 dollars, the 10/22 model I like is 220 dollars.

The US Navy has sailed a carrier into disputed waters in the South China Sea along with two cruisers and two destroyers.

I just want enough feathers to be ruffled in China for something exciting to happen.
How are those jets supposed to take off?
>>29141500
The jets are stored below deck and brought up as needed so the flight deck isnt packed.
The only reason they are all on deck is for a show of force.
>>29141500
They move the excess ones below deck when they're not dickwaving
Alex just put Nugget Fags and AR-18 fags in their place. It never ends, first Ian and Karl, and now Alex C.? It keeps getting better!

Come on Alex, we know you're having trouble ever since daddy cut you off from funds, but begging for Youtube views on /k/?
My how you've fallen. Not like you were very high to begin with.

Yeah not gonna give that guy a view.

you know why there are Ian memes and no Alex memes, Alex?
because one of them isn't a pathetic cunt.
How do we fix the Marines? I'll start:
>get rid of the fixed wing aviation wing and go back to being the amphibious assault force that they are supposed to be.
Needs more women in combat positions. Feminine intuition ftw.
by electing trump
>How do we fix the Marines? I'll start:
Uh, gonna need to change laws about amphibious assaults then.
Why isn't bullpup considered strictly superior?
I've never actually handled a bullpup rifle, is it awkward to hold due to the hands being close together or something?
A non-bullpup basically adds deadweight/useless length for a butt to place on the shoulder, a bullpup avoids this. Why aren't all new rifles bullpups?
>>29145297
The triggers are pretty mushy on every bullpup
Some people like the traditional rifle design better
Adjustable LOP stocks are not really a thing on bullpups
The extra barrel length is negligible
because bullpups are for faaaaaaaaaaags
unless you're a polesmoking cock gobbler you should not touch a bullpup

I know this whole "every marine a rifleman" and "first to fight" shit is all marketing and memery but why is it that every time an army unit trains alongside a marine unit you see a bunch of fit men in tailored uniforms alongside a bunch of fat fucks in garbage bag uniforms?
Because the majority of non POG Marines joined specifically because they are mentally damaged individuals, who grew up in broken homes, who want to go to war and hurt things. We take our military service very seriously. As it should be in any combat unit.
Many army grunts are legit welfare queens, and they don't even require a high school diploma. Not to say there arent some 1337 11x operators, but ij all honesty, a lot of them are bums.
>>29145281
Just now realized that staff sergeant is boot as fuck.
>every Marine a rifleman
>marketing
Not really. EVERY Marine is legit taught how to utilize a rifle plus gets combat training. Now whether the individual takes their training seriously is up to them.
>first to fight
This refers to how we're first in when it comes to conventional warfare. One of the Marine Corps missions is to act as a shock...

Rangers lead the way.
Despite thier insecure bragging, marines don't do much of anything but shwack civilians and catch bullets.
What do they mean by this?
>>29144578
You'd probably have to read the original Russian manual to understand it. Molot sure did a poor job of translating the manual to English.
>>29144590
They probably just ran it through google translate.
>>29144578
Seems like a russian to english translation that didn't go so good.
guys are any of you in colorado
For the first time in 4chan history, no one is from Colorado.

How prepped are you, /k/, on a scale from 1-10? Do you just own a couple of firearms or are you ready to bug out right now?
>>29144387
0, we live in the most peaceful time of human history.
Ehhh... I'll probably die of dehydration long before my weapons would be of any use. Not to mention I don't have much food on hand. So probably a 2 or something. Depends what your hypothetical disaster is.

>bug out
I'm ready to dig in
What was your favorite part of BCT? Pic related for me. It was great to see all the gung-ho mesomorph brofags on their hands and knees crying with snot streaming out of their noses. Shit wasn't that bad, I could have gone back in for a second round.
The day you shoot the M-2. If you don't have a freedom boner after shooting that, you're in the wrong profession.
Went through The Rock with FDNY. It was our first day on fire side, and we all geared up not knowing what to expect. Instructors put us on air and put us in the burn building, they start a fire.
Tell us if anyone leaves they are done. They brought the temperature to just below flash over levels. Holy fuck that was hot.
Honor Hill gentlemen. Hallowed ground.
Just picked up this little Taurus .38 for my wife to keep around the house. Only $200. What are /k/'s thoughts?
Also home defense weaponry thread
I'd probably just my life to a hipoint over a Taurus. You could have gotten a pump shotgun which would be infinitely better for around the same maybe a little more.
Fail
>>29140735
If you shoot someone with it, I doubt they'll enjoy it.
>>29140749
We have 2 12 gauges in our bedroom. The pistol is just a result of disposable income.

I got some creation mags for my al yesterday and the first one fit perfectly did t even think anything about em. Decided to try and fit them all before I actually took them to a range this weekend.
Well three fit perfectly. One stuck a bit when trying to release and one wouldn't even catch the mag holder at all.
Whip out a file and go to town
First one fits perfectly and now gonna file down the mag catch on the one that wouldn't even latch
After about 30 mins of filing, gonna test it again.
Missed the front mag catch and the whole mag slips when I...
