They can't afford tiger stripe camo like you, OP.

Let's look past the cringe-tier mallninja marketing. Their torture tests are sort of cool, but watching a fat man (or the one-eye man, or the tryhard in pic related) slice up pork bodies get old.

Are Cold Steel knives actually any good?

I EDC a Benchmade Mini-Griptilian and I'm pretty happy with it. I'm considering getting a larger knife to EDC with, as well as possibly a survival knife. (County law prohibits carrying folding knives with longer than 3" blades; something like an Espada XL would be nice when I wasn't in the county, which is pretty frequent for me.)

all matching 1928 Izzy ex dragoon. Not that rare in and of itself, but I like the serial

I'm in the market for a .22 pistol. Cause I guess everyone needs a .22 and I dont have one yet. I also need a pistol that my younger sister could learn to shoot on.
I was considering the Ruger SR22 because it functions like a typical pistol, which will translate to using a defensive pistol when she's old enough for it. After fondling one at the lgs, I'm a bit concerned with its functionality. I guess all .22s seem cheaply made to me though.
Also considering the S&W MP22
Not really interested in ruger Mk III, 22/45, buckmarks, or S&W model 22a or anything of that kind because the design doesn't correlate to non .22 pistols very well.

TL:DR - Best .22 for training a young new shooter

CZ-75 is top tier. The new PPQ-5 looks bad as hell.

>ITT: Militaries that punch above their weight class

On paper, I don't see how Germany could have possibly done as well as they did in WWI and WWII.

>Had to fight the world's greatest navy
>Had to fight the world's greatest (at the time) land army
>Had to fight the world's largest army
>Had to fight the world's greatest financier and arms manufacturer

Twice they took on the other 4 great powers, and twice they almost won or at least forced them into ceding to Germany's demands. Their enemies had vast colonies and populations to draw people and resources from, and Germany still slapped them around before they were ground down to defeat.

>done as well as they did.
Well, they lost. Russia was busy rotting from the inside and the Western Front was the biggest collective loss of life from warfare at that time. The Royal Navy blockaded Germany into starvation and everyone started running out of manpower to throw into the shredder, especially France.
>>
>>28929073
The fact that Germany wasn't steamrolled by the other great powers is a testament to their leadership, especially during the first world war.

Why did this aircraft have so much trouble up until Desert Storm and then suddenly become our most effective aircraft of the war?
58 posts and 13 images submitted.

Jews.

Weaponry caught up with the delivery platform.

Doctrine up until just before then was high speed ingress at low altitude for accurate hits with unguided bombs.

As Paveway laser guided bombs came into wider use, the F-111 became the best option to put them on. Strategic bombers were still for carpet bombing, with long range cruise missiles just coming into service. The newest F-16s were just getting LANTIRN pods at the time, and didn't have a high enough payload compared to the F-111.

The F-111 was able to carry a large number of guided bombs, and actually had crews that had trained with them. It had the payload, range, speed, and survivability for deep strike missions.

Out of curiosity, what was the "trouble"? I know the planned carrier variant failed, but was there something else?

M855a1 is a pretty serious improvement. Also it wouldnt fragment soon enough which made it a hole puncher in Mogadishu.

A hollow point actually does more damage, the concept here is similar if you don't want to risk over penetration.

It's legit OP.

Multiple wound channels DO increase the likelihood of hitting a vital or major artery.

Why did the US military (or any other, for that matter) adopt a repeating air rifle like the Girandoni? It seems like it was superior to the single-shot muzzle-loaders of the day.

Too expensive.
>>
>>28926167
Expensive and fragile for general issue. Also couldn't be used to mount a bayonet, can't be used as a club. Also, when the air tanks are empty they require hundreds of pumps to get them to full pressure.

The Austrians issued a few to skirmishers and marksmen, light infantry, the SOF of their day, but not to regular line infantry.

Expensive, didn't take abuse particularly well, if the thing breaks you're not fixing it in the field easily

It was a 75 yard range, but I'll see what I can do to expand that distance as best as I can. We also started running out of fun things to shoot, so I'll be sure next time to have more clay pidgeons, reactive targets and some steel. I'd like to hang a gong behind the 75 yard bench.
