Why doesn't the US make masterpieces like this anymore?

Are you asking why we don't make 11 pound rifles that hold 8 rounds of a cartridge that's good out to ~1km and put only iron sights on them anymore?

I just got done cleaning my brand fucking new Glock 19. After reassembly I decided to load it and try it on for size considering it was going to be my new carry piece. So, while pointing it in a safe direction, I insert a loaded magazine, drop the slide, and...
It fired.
It fired right into my fucking wall.
What kind of fucking garbage gun did you retards convince me to buy?

Did the US ever encounter Tiger tanks in Normandy? The only reports I find are kind of vague about precisely where and when.

All the tigers broke down before reaching Normandy.
>>
>>33679388
Not really. By the time the Tigers came into play the Allies had pushed through Normandy. There might have been stragglers but Tigers on the whole were kept in reserve until too late.
>>
If you mean the battle of Normandy itself, then yes.
>On 22 June 1944 the 316 Kompanie was resesignated as the 1. Kompanie of Panzer-Abteilung(Fkl) 302 and was sent to Reims to refit and rest. In summary for the Panzer-Lehr Division they were in combat at Normandy with only 3 Tiger Is. These were most likely lost in the Normandy campaign. The Tiger IIs were not with the division in the Normandy battles but they remained behind at Chateudun. These 5 Tiger IIs had the following turret numbers 02,10,11,12,13. They were deployed within the city defense aganist the approaching US troops.

Why did the F-20 fail? It seems like it was a great little fighter for the price.
>mach two
>compatible with most nato munitions
>easy to service
>low cost per flight hour
>maneuverable
>f-18 engine making parts easy and cheap to source
Was it just because the market was already saturated? What with all the super poor countries already having bought the F-5 and the countries with money using their shekels on F-16s? It just seems bizarre to me that such a bargain of a fighter never got even a single order.

What were the avionics like?

- The US didn't buy any because F-16
- Allies didn't buy any because the US didn't buy any & made the F-16 available for export
F-20 is a good plane, just released at the wrong time

So how tactically sound of an idea was it to promote the All the Jedi to the rank of General?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but very few of them have any real training for the position beyond use of the force.

I looked into their commissioning programs and it's top lel. I'm an army prior and it did nothing for me but I'm not sure if being prior enlisted counts as anything
But good luck becoming an O if you're huwhite, it's quite frankly almost impossible
Here's a pic from one of their commissioning programs
the only other ways are extremely selective to the point where they make it obvious that they're going to select like 2 white people annually
recruiter I talked to was a nog too, then again, all branches are degenerate and pozzed now

In the Guard now. Love it.

Hey /k/ I need your opinions here. My sister wants to get a handgun for concealed carry to protect herself. She is small 5'1 and under 100lbs. What gun/ holster would you recommend for her? She has fired guns before but doesn't do it often.

>>33676384
some kind of 22lr revolver
maybe ruger lcr22 but it has a 12lb DAO trigger pull difficult to master
or some kind of 22/25 small automatic like beretta
avoid cheap crap
take a gun class at local range ask the female instructor - all the guys will just recommend a too big gun for her
/k/ like Demo Ranch?

I have my AR 15, Beretta 92fs (9mm), a plate carrier, and water containers.
I feel like that's the right set up just to go on a regular patrol with a group of individuals.
How do you find a group to link up with?
I've heard of so many different groups now, 3UP, Arizona Border Recon, Minutemen United, Colorado State Militia, Alabama Border Protectors.
I feel like walking patrol on the border is a very /k/ activity, I'm surprised we haven't organized our own patrols.
What kind of weapons or information can you provide?

Start your own and retain control of it with close friends and family members, unless you like hanging around with ATF agents and neo Nazis.

I thought these groups perform background checks to prevent those people from joining.

Why not use a single standard for both genders, though? isn't that a little sexist?

Because women aren't as physically able as men
