Just got word back from the smith on this, everything looks perfectly good except for the barrel, which is pitted to the point of it most likely being unsafe to fire. It's still a cool buy, especially for the price I paid, but who knows when I'm going to be able to find a barrel for it that doesn't cost more than what I paid for the gun.

Alright, /k/ - you are put in charge of the Belgian navy. This once-formidable fleet has been whittled down to pic related. Its ships-of-the-line are two sub-3,000 ton Dutch frigates built in the 1980's.

Current acquisition plans are two more frigates by 2030, along with 6 new minehunters, though retirements of existing vessels will probably mean no net change in fleet size. The annual naval budget is somewhat under a billion Euros, and includes payroll for about 1,900 sailors and personnel. There is a very small naval aviation component consisting of some NHIndustries NH90 helicopters, along with older Sea Kings and Alouette IIIs.

In addition to guns/CIWS, the frigates are armed with Sea Sparrow anti-air missiles, Harpoon anti-ship missiles, and Mark 46 anti-submarine torpedoes.

Structural advantages: Belgium has a coastline facing the North Sea/Atlantic Ocean along with very large modern shipyards and drydocks capable of handling massive vessels. Antwerp is one of the world's largest ports, and the country's maritime industry is among the world's most advanced.

Disadvantages: Small budget, several decades of limited investment in naval capability, limited personnel, little native warship fabrication capability beyond minesweepers.

Given those constraints, how would you reform the Belgian navy, /k/?

So say I have a gun for home protection I keep in a fingerprint safe beside my nightstand. I have 3 magazines that I keep one full. How often should I swap out the rounds from one mag to the next for optimal spring reliability so the mag springs wear evenly? I've been told that springs shouldn't be left compressed for extended periods. But maybe that's bullshit, I don't know.

Like returning a shot from a shotgun, the most powerful shot, without sacrificing the size of the shotgun, the shot shot more powerful give me the crazy but realistic ideas that have anonsalthough I would like it to be fixed more in the shotgun than in the cartridge something that makes the shot more powerful ... ideas?

So I bought 100 rounds of this stuff linked up from a old guy at a flea market for 35 bucks... Should I pull the bullets and load 7.62 nato or get something to shoot it? Will being loaded in 7.62 nato take the performance way down?

Alight /K/,

why shouldn't I get a 1911 in 10mm?

I already have I 1911 officers in .45. I really love it except have to change out the recoil spring out damn near every time I take her out to go shoot it. I shoot A LOT of rounds when I go shooting.

>The U.S. Army’s rapid reaction force in Europe is under-equipped, undermanned and inadequately organized to confront military aggression from Russia or its high-tech proxies, according to an internal study that some who have read it view as a wake-up call as the Trump administration seeks to deter an emboldened Vladimir Putin.

>The Italy-based 173rd Airborne Brigade lacks “essential capabilities needed to accomplish its mission effectively and with decisive speed,” according to the analysis by the brigade, a copy of which was obtained by POLITICO.

>But the assessment details a series of “capability gaps” the unit has identified during recent training with Ukrainian troops with experience battling Russian-backed separatists, who have used cheap drones and electronic warfare tools to pinpoint targets for artillery barrages and devastated government armored vehicles with state-of-the-art Russian antitank missiles.

>Some of the shortfalls, like the brigade’s lack of air defense and electronic warfare units and over-reliance on satellite communications and GPS navigation systems, are the direct results of the Army's years of fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan, where the enemy has no air power or other high-end equipment and technology.

>“The lessons we learned from our Ukrainian partners were substantial. It was a real eye-opener on the absolute need to look at ourselves critically,” Col. Gregory Anderson, who commissioned the report earlier this year during his stint as the brigade’s commander, told POLITICO after it had obtained a copy of the report. “We felt compelled to write about our experiences and pass on what we saw and learned.”

>The report has so far been distributed only through internal channels to the Army staff and other military headquarters.
