THIS IS VIETNAM THE MOVIE

It's a neat concept, but mostly unwieldy. I like the idea of sten grips and what not, as mall ninja as I know it is. I find that there's a lot of positive support going backwards from a horizontal handle because it's using the arms natural position to exert force.

On the M56 in Aliens, however, it's not the same. The weapon would be better if shortened and not given to a short-stacked lesbian with an attitude. Jin-Roh does the same exact thing but the weapon is issued to elite (male) soldiers who can use it to maximum effect instead of giving it to a rag-tag group of misfits or standard infantry who can't wield it and its massive firepower worth shit.

I guess the M56 is pretty short though. Maybe it's just the chainsaw grip that gets me. If they kept the original stock I think it would have been a much more effective weapon.

ease of carry, carried a full size for a while, can be done but theres a lot to be said about compactness. As for calibre, someone link that study that showed calibre doesnt matter

I have cc experience with two different guns. In the hottest part of the summer I carry a tiny NAA in a kydex clamshell on a string around my neck.

In the winter and much of the summer (UP fag reporting in) I carry a Glock 19 in a hybrid leather/kydex IWB holster.

In retrospect, both are poor choices. I think something like a Glock 43 down to a lcp would be the best compromise in use ability and carryability.

The NAA is no better than a knife. Maybe worse.

The Glock punishes me all day, most days, for carrying it.

So I'd say make sure the gun is giving you a good handle and sights while being as small as possible while doing that.

Make caliber your last consideration. It almost never changes the outcome of a real fight.

>>34379247
If you ask me, for concealed carry caliber becomes less of a concern since it's for personal protection. I carry a makarov and I'd have to say ease of use and concealability are more important factors than the caliber, since unless it's a peashooter or you're facing a hostile army for some reason any caliber should be enough for personal defense. But regardless of caliber, if you can't hold it very well or it becomes burdensome then it's effectiveness is lowered for you.

Isn't the USAF the same branch that's been in the news for constant fuckups over the past 8 years?

Aren't they the same branch that can't even handle their fucking nukes?

Air Force should focus on the basics, like their fucked up obesity and the fact that 90% of them are on PT waivers even when they barely move.

I'm torn

on one hand

>NASA have been the ones putting their asses on the line
>NASA has a cooler history in space than the USAF
>why not just let NASA do military shit in space

on the other

>NASA are non-military, the USAF is the god of death
>USAF is under DoD, I don't even remember who runs NASA, but it isn't any kind of military man
>get to keep NASA as the non-military space people

>>34379264
Under the proposed plan, military operations in space would be taken away from the Air Force and put under their own branch, and both the Air Force and Space Corps would be under the Department of the Air Force, which is a civilian bureaucracy.

Do it op I bought one and it's great will post pics in an hour or so.

Looks like a soviet era ssh-40 or ssh-42

>>34379162
how much? If you want it for actual protection steel is probably not the best bet, but for shits and giggles if its like 30 bucks who cares.

>>34379091
you brave man
saw pics of the FNS taken completely down on barfcom, looked like a nightmare

Hands down the biggest pain in the ass I've encountered with handguns. It's worse than any 1911 or Hi-Power.

>>34379091

it looked uglier, more anoying to use, and it was more expensive than the glock brand glock.

Seriously what the fuck, who thought this was a good idea? What the fuck does this do for 200 more than a proven frame that is easier in every facet?

its another ruger american pistol, why can't any of these chucklefucks get anything right

just shoot right handed like God intended, or just watch fellow left handed degenerate Gun jesus do it.

>>34378676

Train yourself to shoot right handed and stop being a special snowflake.

>>34378676
I shoot with my left hand and operate the bolt with my right.

I'm sure this is bait, but aside from during child birth in which the body produces a cocktail of painkilling chemicals, women generally have lower pain tolerances than men

Euro instructor here. In my experience most women love magnum revolvers, but dislike rifles with heavy recoil.

Not sure why. Maybe simply because heavy recoiling rifles are also heavy, and they have less body strength and weight? Have less meat on their bones to handle the kick?

>>34378459
What do you mean by rifles with heavy recoil? Are we talking 308 Winchester or 375 H&H?

Neat results from a first attempt.

Forgot to add

>The Apache used a HEL mated with a version of Raytheon’s Multi-Spectral Targeting System, which combined electro-optical and infrared sensors, against a number of targets. The data from this test will be used to future HEL systems to address unique challenges that stem from their installation on rotary-wing aircraft, including the effects of vibration, downwash, and dust.

So more of an initial trial run than anything.

I hope you realize there are multiple variants and styles of power armor.

This is like saying, "what's the pros and cons of an automobile."

You probably didn't get many replies because k isn't a board dedicated to arguing semantics and implications of inter state trade law.
Why do you think every other company doesn't do this if there are no consequences?

you dug your grave now lie in it

If you have a newer car it can run on diesel without issue

Yeah just run diesel -- most cars these days are way over-engineered. Anything newer than 2004 should handle it fine.
