>They descend on towns and villages, plundering crops and rampaging through homes. They occasionally attack humans. But perhaps most dangerous of all, the marauders carry with them highly radioactive material.
>Hundreds of toxic wild boars have been roaming across northern Japan, where the meltdown of the Fukushima nuclear plant six years ago forced thousands of residents to desert their homes, pets and livestock.
>Local authorities in towns across Fukushima have hired teams of hunters to cull the boars. It is unclear whether those efforts will pay off, or whether they’re enough to persuade former residents to return home.
>Authorities in the town of Tomioka say they’ve killed 800 so far, but officials there say that’s not enough, according to Japanese media. The latest statistics show that in the three years since 2011, the number of boars killed in hunts has grown to 13,000 from 3,000.
It bothers me that I will never be inna Japanese Zone hunting down radioactive feral boars in order to reclaim lost towns.

Best Single Action Double Action for CCW and first handgun
in 9mm
I always thought I was gonna buy a Glock when I turn 21 But I've recently looked into the advantages of Double Action Single Actions and they seem better, both safer and faster
not to mention glock stock triggers are heavy
Recommendations?

>Recommendations?
Try out a Beretta PX4 Compact. I've been carrying one for about a month and it's really good in terms of a Glock 19 sized DA/SA gun ontop of shooting like a fullsize pistol. There's also the CZ P07 which I think is another good option if you want something slightly bigger with a full length rail.
If you want, I can give you some of my initial thoughts on the PX4 Compact. The specific model I have is the Compact Carry that has some enhancements over a stock Compact gun.

Within China there are growing calls for the mainland to retake Taiwan by force.
http://www.cnbc.com/2016/12/15/chinese-media-outlet-calls-for-use-of-force-over-taiwan.html
Now keep in mind, if Taiwan comes out and declares independence, the USA has said they would not help them in a Chinese invasion. However, if China decides to invade without Taiwan declaring independence, USA said they would help.
I would imagine Taiwan would never actually declare independence due to the fact that China will indeed invade and they would have no USA support. So let's talk about the far more plausible scenario: China invades Taiwan and USA is dragged into the fight.
How would this go down? Taiwan has decent defensive capabilities, however it's military equipment is very outdated.
My thoughts: China would already be dealing with a worldwide backlash for any offensive military actions taken against Taiwan, so I believe their artillery barrages would be focused on military areas, and they would do everything they can not to destroy Taipei. It also goes up against USA, which not only is bad for it's economy, but it could be perhaps very embarrassing nationally if USA does stop their invasion.
Additionally, invading an island is difficult logistically. The invasion force would have a supply line very susceptible to USA and Taiwanese aircraft, submarines, etc. This would be particularly troublesome if the war is dragged out. Therefor, I believe China would try to end the war are quickly as possible. However, such a mass buildup of troops and equipment suddenly would raise many alarms, and probably tip-off USA and Taiwan to the impending invasion.
Ultimately such an invasion I believe would be a huge mistake for China, and very costly for it.

I've actually thought about this scenario quite a bit the past few days. I believe China could do it, if they had the Chinese public on their side and at least 3 years to prepare. I picture a large overwhelming Chinese force, backed by rocket attacks from the main land, overrunning the island's defenses. Casualties would be in the tens of thousands, but they could do it. I think the best way to go is to get large numbers of troops and supplies on the island asap, before the US Navy blocks everything. Meanwhile, North Korea bombards Seoul and sends a massive invasion force to flood the DMZ and take South Korean towns, dividing US and NATO resources. Iran launches missiles ,supplied by Russia, to take out Saudi and Kuwaiti oil wells and capture Dubai with a massive air and amphibious assault. They take over Kuait and deploy a missile defense shield, provided again by Russia, to block oil exports from Iraq. Than sleeper cells in the United States destroy oil refineries and oil wells in the US and Canada. Than massive Russian armor and infantry divisions invade deep into Ukraine and cut of Natural gas to Western Europe. Venezuela put an oil embargo on the United States and Russian and Chinese troops are deployed to defend them from US occupation as well as provide supplies to the citizens. Eurofags freeze and Americunts have to learn to take bikes to work. Normies wouldn't see it coming.

>>33276053
So basically you think a large force that is cut off from it's supply line?
China would need to be able to keep USA away from it's supply lines in order to effectively invade and hold Taiwan.

Would nukes be on the table?
can someone explain to me why people hate the M14/M1A so much?
>its heavy
more like you're weak. git gud
>its expensive
you have to a turbo poorfag for .308 to be too pricey for you, and it shoots a lot better out of the box than your mall ninja AR-15 that all tolled cost pretty much the same
>s-short service life
because it sucked full auto, which isn't really relevant to you and your "whoa there $1600 is too expensive for me" bullshit.

They are genuinely boring and uninteresting like every other auto loading rifle.
>>
>>33274266
The recievers apparently have problems with stretching (event on Civillian ones) and bedding problems mean you have to settle for meh accuracy or it's got to be a bench rifle (I like taking mine innawoods.)
The Garand had a longer reciever and thus more time to slow down, as well as having a heavier BCG (the piston being part of the weight of the carrier and bolt and stuff)
They shoulda gone with a long stroke piston design like the Garand and it MIGHT have had fewer problems.
The cartridge length seems to be the biggest to me though.

>>33274266
PTR does it better for cheaper.
ARs can do it better for cheaper.
They're unreliable as fuck and the only thing he really having going for them is looks. And at that price when you're buying for looks you might as well get a Rock-ola.

In my State (Wi), it is illegal for anyone under the age of 21 to buy a handgun.
But, if the seller were to put a barrel on it that was long enough to put the gun over the legal minimum length for a long gun (manufacture a rifle), then sell it to me (legal), could I then register it as an SBR and put the stock barrel back on without being arrested for shenanigans?

The grip safety if broken will completely lock the gun up and replacing the sights on them is a collossal pain in the ass from how stuck on they are yet they have a tendency to sheer off unexpectedly.
I've put about 1,000 rounds through my dad's fullsize 9mm XD with no stoppages or any sort of malfunction but I won't be quick to start carrying one. They're not as proven or even duty grade like a Glock, M&P or Sig.

So one day you happen to find an injured animal, and to your surprise it begins to talk. It thanks you for rescuing it, and says it will offer you a firearms-related wish, any wish, and it will grant it. What do you wish for?

That's what you get when you don't really train for shit. Plus they seem to not really use the sights, instead shot from the hip.
