The individual launcher is pretty neat. At 45 pounds/missile that is borderline man portable.

These swords (generously speaking) do seem to be a result of western fiction and art more than any real sword. Depending on how far back the lineage goes the original prototype may perhaps even be a European messer or falchion, more or less twisted by the artist because those strange foreign folks gotta use strange foreign swords, right? Either way, whatever it may have started as is probably of minor importance, instead you start getting artists copying each other, and with that the Chinese telefax kicks off, rapidly distorting whatever it once may have been into, well, that.

>Where did these swords come from?
from orientalists watching too much aladdin

>>34960070
I could see it in limited use as an executioner's sword, but not as a common weapon.

There are a finite number of the type of guns he's interested in and thus a finite number of videos he wants to make. Or he died from a ruptured anus after a weekend with his dragon dildo. Those are the only two possibilities.

Does this guy even own rifles?

>>34960049
he probably owns a Mateba Grifone

Colt mag AR9s are sexy. Mine has had a few feed issues, so I wouldn't trust it with my life, but it's fun to shoot.

Are the Germans going to have Swastikas or Black female transgender infantry this time?

t-34 hands down

Long time ago when i bought zero hour, i loved the game ofcourse, but i played it on the hardest mode.
Wanted gold medals and everything, got used to the previous game, and it was hard as hell for me.
First challenge i played, it went somehow, barely making it but i managed. And then fucking Tao the nuke comes.
For some unknown reason, he scared the shit out of me, mostly by the game itself, since the nuke is the best superweapon in the game, the nuke cannons are insane when fielded properly and i was new with the game.
He mopped the floor with them, id didnt even get a chance to stop the game and restart, a fucking nuke wrecks half of my base, the migs wreck the other half, the squad i sent gets avoided and i have an army attacking me.
Frustrated me a lot and scared me somewhat.
I dont like Tao

there is no winning if we do not destroy the enemy before they get nuclear weapons into our country.

It's not. It's just easier and less expensive to make than high velocity guns.

Because if you want a higher velocity gun in the same caliber it's going to be three times the size

HEAT needs to be fairly slow to be effective, or at least early HEAT shells did

PUBG. It's not all that /k/, but it is fun.

>>34959319
Pre-64 model 70 in 30-06. Weaver K series scope.

>>34959319
Old Remingtons and Winchesters are good.
Although the best deal on Bolt guns would have to be Savage. Either the Axis line for ultimate poorfag or get a model 10 or 11.

As for caliber .308, .30-06, .270, 6.5 will all suffice.

Optics. Just find a decent mid tier 3-9x or similar. Stay away from anything less than $300. Dont bother with anything over $1k.

A Tikka T3 will do you just fine.

Remington is shit. Im serious, aviod post Fergus acquisition Remington like the fucking plague.
A ruger precision rifle, and any savage or howa offerings are also superb options.

As far as glass get an SWFA super sniper. (I know, it's the most cringe worthy product name in history) but it's a fantastic product line fielded by most of the western militaries under different names. I would also recommend you get a fixed power scope in the 6x 10x 12x or 16x depending on your needs, until you learn A LOT about optics, dont get a variable power scope.

Is there anything particular you are looking for?

I'm not a fan.

Same. Gun's elegance shouldn't come from gaudy ornaments, but from elegant, functional design.

>>34959311
Engravings give you no tactical advantage whatsoever.

I feel like that is likely more of a Bongland problem anon.

Not really though
> In recent years, a handful of troops have been prosecuted for possessing war trophies, such as antiques and weapons.

> The case against San Juan began on June 25, 2006, when his fiance went to a gun range to learn how to shoot his .45 caliber handgun. A gun range safety officer attempted to show her how to use it but she struggled with the gun's slide and safety. When asked if she had access to another weapon that might be easier to use, she allegedly said she had “AKs in her garage,” the indictment said.

> The gun range safety officer then contacted law enforcement officials, who subsequently searched the garage and found the rifle stored in a plastic bin. It was later turned over to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives for testing.

That's why there is a market for guys making legal replicas of Iraqi AKs and Tabuks
