North Korea is looking pretty good here, but their technology is really old. They're flying MIGs and their navy is mostly just landing craft with a couple frigates. Also although they have nukes, they've had major problems with their delivery system. It's likely their ICBM's are relatively nonfunctional.

Whoever invades North Korea, will have to kill everybody. The whole population is utterly brainwashed to believe, that the US is always trying to invade and kill them all, if it weren't for their glorious leader. Every man, woman and child will pick up arms to fight the invading army, because the propaganda just became reality.

Nuking one or two cities is probably more humane, to demonstrate the citizenry that whatever the government told them, it won't be worse than this. Worked for the Japs.

I've been looking for some good innawoods/Outdoorsy kinda games for a while and I need something new to try. Can we get a list going of some approved games? I'll start:
>DayZ (if you can look passed all the bullshit)
>S.T.A.L.K.E.R Trilogy
>Fallout 4 (Modded for muh nugget)
>Ghost Recon: Wildlands
>Skyrim (Even just for that Forest aesthetic)

Thanks, anon. I was going to go visit their branch in Pleasant Hill soon anyway, so this gives me an excuse. Also, how much should an 80% lower cost?

>>33720653
I got 5 80% lowers for like 20 bucks a pop, the jig is about 100 bucks. It helps to have a drill press already. tbfhwy City Arms East isnt as good as the one in Pacifica. But if you are an east bay fag then I wouldnt waste the gas. Couldnt tell you any other shops on that side of the Gay Area. You are looking for AR-15 lowers and not AR-10/AR-.308 right?

Guys, I feel sad sometimes because I'm working lame jobs and want to be in the military instead. I'm going to MEPS in a couple weeks then the next selection board after that is in June. It could be July before I hear if I'm going to OCS. If it doesn't work, I'll just go enlist. If that doesn't work, I'll just sell off all my guns and other shit and go live in the mountains eating fish, small game, bugs, and wild mushrooms for the rest of my life.
Wish me luck, guys.

AK74 complex MBC.jpg

Hi /k/. Here I want to discuss the notable difference that struck me while reading multiple online discussions about usability of full auto fire in assault rifles.

As far as I understand, current western “enlightened” opinion on subject fashions semi-auto fire, shunning full auto as wasteful and calling for controlled shot placement even in CQB situations. Even more so, I read some statements by members of US Military that they were taught to almost never use even limited burst setting on their M16A2, only exceptions being “mad minute” during the ambushes or when under risk of being overrun by banzai charge. Full auto fire is thought of as the job for squad’s Automatic Rifleman. Well, at least it is recognized that suppression is not his only utility – I remember reading descriptions of the MG/Auto Rifle as the “squad’s most casualty producing weapon” as well. Quite an illustration of this mindset is “Black Hawk down” war film, where M16A2 is only seen fired once in burst mode.

Well, I’m Russian, and here’s my cup of tea.

All editions of Soviet Army manuals on AK rifles state right away (Chapter 1 Paragraph 2) that full auto mode is the main/principal/default infantryman’s mode of fire in combat.
Later when discussing particular methods of fire against various targets in combat, only manuals on older AK-47 do mention single shots at all – almost always in conjunction with bursts as acceptable alternative. Since the inception of AKM (I should add – with its slanted muzzle compensator) manuals instruct to only use burst fire to engage typical battlefield targets, dropping the mention of single shots (full auto rock’n’roll being recommended in certain specific situations both for AK-47 and AKM, but that’s not our current subject). And you may (quite logically) rest assured that this fixation on burst fire does not change with the introduction of AK-74 with its low recoil impulse round and complex muzzle device.

AK burst.jpg
1MB, 1660x1370px
Some of you probably know about R&D of burst-fire capabilities of infantry rifles in 20th century’s second half. American ACR program had competitors (AAI ACR, Steyr ACR, HK G11) that used 3-round hyperburst of conventional bullets (though with caseless cartridge) or flechettes with cyclic rate between 1800-2400 rpm to increase first burst hit probability. Same approach (2-round 1800 rpm burst) was used in Russian AN-94 firing conventional round in use in AK-74.

For a given cartridge (obviously more factors were in play when ACR entries competed against M16A2 with their flechette rounds) hyperburst increases hit probability because dispersion of its rounds produces shotgun-like spread. It was acknowledged by US Army that most important detriment to infantryman’s accuracy is his own errors (even more pronounced in life-threatening combat). If his first shot misses because of operator’s error, subsequent rounds of the burst, forming a spread, have non-zero chance to “correct” this error and hit the target.

Though hyperburst guns fell into obscurity as costly failures, long before that the Soviets had established that burst fire increases hit probability per trigger pull for conventional assault rifles as well. It was their design goal from the start when developing 7,62x39 round after 7,62x54 full auto rifles AVS and AVT turned out to be uncontrollable, while full auto PPSh SMG firing powerful 7,62x25 pistol round proved to be quite an asset regarded both by Soviets and Germans and almost replaced infantry rifles in some units during WW2; study of German 7,92x33 Sturmgewehr probably contributed as well. All AK manuals contain reference tables showing average number of rounds expended by experienced shooters to hit different sized targets at different ranges from different firing postures using single shots or 3-round bursts. In most instances burst fire expenditure is less than 3 times that of semi-auto, meaning less trigger pulls per hit for burst fire.

Should we speak of existing hardware, I have already mentioned that in Soviet lineage of AK rifles burst spread size was being gradually optimized by first adding slanted compensator on AKM (only countering muzzle climb and drift) and then switching to low-impulse round and complex muzzle brake-compensator on AK-74 (countering both muzzle climb and drift and recoil). The next step in this direction was meant to be gas-driven counterweight-balanced system (AO-38, AL-7, AEK-971/972/973, AK107/108, A-545/762), offering softer recoil and better controlled dispersion during full auto fire (as opposed to fixed-length hyperbursts of ACR participants and AN-94). It was shelved after USSR defeat in Cold War and saw recent resurgence and partial success during 2013-2014 “Ratnik” program to replace AK-74M, but due to prevalence of conservatives in Russian Army its future looks uncertain for now (recently they have even rolled back most of common-sense ergonomic design changes of the less revolutionary AK-12).

Americans, on the other hand, were probably content with performance of their semi-auto Garand and then forced their 7,62x51 round upon NATO, which plagued their battle rifles with the same full-auto controllability issues already experienced by Soviets with AVS and AVT. They were first to introduce low-impulse small-caliber round with M16 rifle (7,62x39 is not regarded as “low impulse” even though is “intermediate”), and effective full auto/burst fire was initially one of their design goals along with weight saving. Two interesting studies about M16 rifle performance were concluded in 1986. One of them, conducted by Army, had M16A1 rifle fitted with AK-74 muzzle device and evaluated for burst fire performance (pic related).
“A Limited Evaluation of the Burst-Fire Performance of the M16A1 Rifle With AK-74 Muzzle Brake Compensator.”

Another, conducted by Naval Weapons Suppot Center, states that M16A2 “half-birdcage” flash hider/compensator (functionally analogous to AKM slanted compensator) offers performance equivalent or better than M16A1/AK74 hybrid mentioned above.
“Final Report for Joint Services Small Arms Program 6.2: M16A2 Rifle Signature Suppression Project.”

I was unable to find them, but both are referenced in available 1990 Army paper, Ref 8 and 10.
“System Error Budgets, Target Distributions and Hitting Performance Estimates for General-Purpose Rifles and Sniper Rifles of 7.62 x 51 mm and Larger Calibers.”
