Remote controlled ground vehicles have issues with lag and losing signal. The high techy militaryo flyamajig drones are way up in the sky and avoid those problems.

>Wouldn't it make sense for tanks to be remotely controlled in [the current year] ?

no it would be really little sense for anything to be remotely controlled in current year

Because you cant poke your head out the top of an unmanned vehicle to get a better view and its foolish to expect supporting infantry to know how to make quick repairs.

Supposedly they're okay, but why risk it? Anything Taurus made is a gamble.

no thanks. sooner spend a little more or not and just get a police trade in Beretta 92 if want one that bad.

They're fine. Takes most if the Beretta 92 series parts, mec-gar makes good quality mags for them and the guns can be bought very cheaply with nice opions. It's not as nice of a gun as the 92fs, but the controls fit some people better.

It won't be as smooth or as pretty but it's well worth the price if you buy below msrp and I say this as a Beretta fanboy. I've had 3 and only one had failure that was caused by it being disgustingly dirty and gummed up. Could even tell it had 3-dot sights when I got it. Always end up selling em to interesting friends because I had other guns including a Cougar, 96fs and a cheetah

I know that getting shot with a gustav will damage your organ

>>34626726
I think firing at yourself just once would damage your organs

>repeated shockwaves, concussions, and explosions are bad for you

Give it a lick. If it tastes like stale brisket and gehfilte fish, you know for sure it was used in the camps.

Research and experience.

Stab a jew with it, that makes it authentic

Be very wary of fakes as the vast majority I've seen are 'Khyber Pass' fakes. Familiarize yourself with the markings and production dates. For example, I've sen some dated 1915 (long after production ceased) with Queen Victoria's cypher (Victoria died in 1901). Not all will be this obvious but the most commonly faked version is the 'artillery carbine' which is the model in your photo.

Here is a photo of the roll mark on my Martini-Enfield. The ME MkI will have a Martini-Henry roll mark on the right side of the receiver (usually rather faint) and a Martini-Enfield roll mark on the left as these were built from existing MH MkIII actions. The ME MkII's were built using new actions.

I'm fine with an Afghan one as long as it works, I'm Afghan myself so it'd be pretty cool

As long as it doesn't blow up in my hands, you never truly know with Khyber Pass stuff

Honestly, it's not the worst thing the Brady Campaign has done, and it's not even that bad. They're encouraging people to ask questions? They're not mandating anything, and if anything, this will give no-gunz a chance to get informed by their has-gunz neighbors about irrational fear surrounding firearms.

>>34626418
unless you are nogunz yuro trash or 3rd world South American, there is literally no reason to own a 1911 in .380. Honestly is angers me that this even exists but I understand that there are fudds in cucked countries that have "muh military ammo' laws.

>>34626432
I like the 1911 style and I want it in 9mm, this is the next best thing, plus it's as light as a subcompact. I held one today

I've had good luck with really fine steel wool and some remoil for general cleaning/polishing, then I just wipe it with an oily rag and it looks good as long as you don't touch it with your grubby little fingers

>>34626137
No. Polishing off bluing is dumb-ass bubba shit. Buy stainless steel parts or have the parts cerakoted in tungsten or something. If you scrub off the bluing there's nothing preventing the parts from rusting.

>>34626287
yea thats why i was thinking too but figured it would ask around first to see if i can save myself $85 for the stainless parts i want to get.

how much does cerakote usually cost to get done to parts?

First bolt action rifle.
It was even invented before the metallic cartridge.

>>34626936
Dryse is a NEAT gun.

Where there conversions for the Dryse into metal cartridges? Maybe shortened needle into pin?

Also the paper cartridges had the primer at the base of the bullet right? I didn't know they where separate pieces of projectile and charge.

Despite dating from around the end of WWII, it is still in heavy usage throughout the world with upwards of 75 million having been manufactured. It it noted for its extreme reliability and low maintenance requirements.
The recently deceased designer when asked if he felt any remorse for so many people having been killed by the gun he designed replied that he created the weapon to "defend the borders of my country" and that it wasn't his fault what governments did with it.

Have the same can at home, it almost drys up right before my eyes. I use light machine oil instead now.

Remoil is shit-tier.
If you want an aerosol, I highly recommend Hornady One Shot. Evaporates dry, but leaves a very slick film, and I haven't had any rust issues with it. Stick to using it with gloves in well ventilated places though, pretty sure it'll give you 5 different kinds of cancer if you huff too much of it.
Ballistol is pretty good too if you want something non-toxic.

>>34626014
Ballistol or just use ATF.

Rem Oil a shit.

25mm Airburst munition.

.22 short :(

melania?

Who gives a shit. A bunch of guys I was in school with enlisted to become seals, they all washed out too. As long as the standards are upheld, they can enlist all they like.

>Navy SEAL
>Posts pic of muhreens

Anyway, enlisting is different from completing selection. She won't make it through, I'm assuming, and that's it.

join the police so you can be told not to do your job and help fuck up society. Sounds like a hoot

Cabelafag here, it's not a bodycam, it's our push-to-talk internal radios. They glow and flash whenever anyone is talking, whether direct to them or on the store-wide channel. He pushed it before talking to you because that mutes everything except the direct channel, cuz normally no one can hear themselves think on the gun counter/library, let alone hold a conversation with all of the store managers blaring their stuff that doesn't apply to anyone outside of their department.

>>34625825
Also used to work at Cabela's and can confirm. There are tons of cameras in the store though so you were being recorded in general.

Don't worry OP, you're not that interesting to need to be recorded personally.

But this explanation doesn't play into his paranoid, self-centered narrative.

How will we have entertaining yet misleading posts on this board with the truth being so high in the replies?

You've ruined the thread.
