Collecting the wads on the shooting line. It's just like the driving range ball collectors. Cept you get a flak jacket and a pair of safety glasses.

I've kinda been interested in this myself. I've thought about being a company rep for things like shot show and things like that. I have the background in customer service for it.

Job at a gun store and/or range. If there are any actual manufacturers near you check for listings.

ITT: Post dead end tech
Military tech that has no real value in war and was cancelled.
America has made a prototype before and found it lacking and worthless. Now Russia is milking it for the money since they know it is worthless. If they wanted effectiveness and efficiency, they would've bought Chinese instead.
I can already tell this thread is going to be pretty painful

>America didn't adopt the concept so it's shit
What record does the US have of adopting novel armored warfare tech in a timely manner? There's still no APS in full scale service. America didn't even produce a decent tank until the 1940s. M60s were designed for composite armour (hence the flat, wedge shaped front hull) and they dropped the concept. And how long did it take America to make an IFV?

Fuck I came here to make this joke
Is this commentary accurate, /k/? It was allegedly written by a career naval officer who has become quite frustrated with how things have changed during his tenure.
>I am the CO of a US Navy ship. I have been in the surface Navy for almost 20 years. Many of these posts approach the root cause, but they’re not exactly right, from my perspective.
>Much has been made of the lack of formal training of junior officers in the surface Navy. And critics who note that we may be paying the price for previously eliminating all formal training (post commissioning source) have a point. But ship training is not, decidedly not, a formal structured thing. Going back to the time of sailing ships with midshipmen, the Navy has a culture of on-the-job training. New officers learn, but they learn by accident. They are not mentored so much as thrown in the deep end to see if they can swim.
>Junior officers are immediately assigned responsibility for a division of sailors (typically about 20) and face a series of required quals where they demonstrate that they know about the ship’s systems, programatics, organization, etc. They also face qualifications for watchstanding positions, culminating in Officer of the Deck (underway) They are less trained than tested and some don’t make it. Those who “non-attain” are typically administratively separated from the service. Non-attain rates hover around 10%.
(continued)
>>34938066
>The sink or swim model worked okay when junior officers tended to be very smart. But today’s Navy is obsessed with “diversity” which of course means not white and male. Racial diversity is stressed but women retention numbers are *really* important. Since the non-prior enlisted SWO female retention rate (beyond the initial 5 year commitment) is something like 9% (prior-E officers tend to stay in since they are probably half-way to their 20 year retirement) it appears that the manpower folks have made the conscious decision to assess too many officers in the hopes of bringing in more women.
>*The result is that I have too many junior officers on my ship.* I cannot offer sufficient time for each of them to adequately learn the various watchatanding positions. For me this is exacerbated by having been in a 15+ month maintenance period during which the officers’ career clocks kept ticking. Regardless, the surface Navy has chosen, in its diversity fetish, to bring in JOs that are not smart enough to pick up the required skills on their own. They need formal training, but those training opportunities are increasingly rare because of the disproportionately large number of JOs onboard.
>So while it might turn out that the bridge team on JSM at the time of collision looked like the cover of a JCrew catalogue, the Navy policy of bringing in too many officers in order to cast a wider diversity net has the effect of straining an already suspect training approach to the breaking point.
(continued)
>>34938077
>For me, I face the problem of what to do with my JOs who can’t make it. I certainly can’t non-attain all of them, because that would mean getting rid of four black officers, including 3 black females, and I know that I won’t be allowed to do that. So I’ll have to qualify them, which means they’ll go to their second ship with the expectation that they know what they are doing. And until then I’ll have to assume the responsibility for their mistakes when they stand watch at night while I try to sleep. And make no mistake, I will be accountable for their actions just like my friends in command of FTZ and JSM are held to account.
>I could go on forever, but it’s important to remember that for a JO, watchstanding is just one part of a large, complicated qualification process that also stresses the Navy’s Byzantine admin and supply systems, material readiness, preventative maintenance procedures (PMS is a near religious obsession with the Navy, and the paperwork associated with it is complex), and in-port duties. Most JOs work 60+ hours a week in port, not including overnight duty which typically occurs every 4 days.
>Underway, all that work happens with the context of 5 hours on, 10 hours off watch rotations that leave little time for sleep. It’s a pressure cooker and what made it work before, barely, was that most JOs were really smart and didn’t need much time to pick things up. But the larger number of JOs coupled with less underway time (except for Japan-based ships) and with more diversity-hires who tend not to be as talented, the SWO training model has reached a breaking point.
