Recently I decided to remove the scratches and scrapes from my sword for the first time. It went well enough and I finally got the lines to look as close to a mirror finish as I could being an amateur, but the folding pattern is now next to nonexistant. Is there a way to brighten those up again? Someone said linseed oil. Another person said to boil lemon juice.

And as a side question, how does buffing on a wheel or slathering it in boiled lemon juice affect the blade? I know you shouldn't heat a blade up for risk of altering the temper, but that is the extent of what I've heard.

use a simple acid

>remove the scratches and scrapes
how did they get on your blade?
and why not keep them?

You're going to need to give that shit an acid bath or something breh

The only reason you can see the different metals in a pattern weld is because they've reacted differently to treatment.

18yo. anon here, from what I understand 223/556 is a "pistol round" and I have to be 21 to buy it. How the fuck do I feed my AR? Is reloading 223/556 illegal as a young fag? what do.

What if, instead of the PPs-43, the AK was adopted at the same time, and served in WWII? How would that have affected the Soviet advance towards Berlin?

It would have gone slightly faster, but not a whole lot.

>>
>>34072360
If it was only given to certain units like the PPs-43 they might do marginally better but ultimately it would effect very little.

If it was given to absolutely everyone in the army the K:D rate would probably be a little less abysmal for the soviets, but still it wouldn't change the overall outcome too drastically.

It would've helped. Hitler probably would've rolled the strumgewher out earlier.

>Which countries allow it's people to kill in self defense and walk away free?
Define "walk away free". As far as I know, walking away from a situation involving lethal force used in self defense by merely exchanging a few words with LE only applies in a select few US states. If a Texan shoots a home intruder in his Texan home, with the investigating sheriff quickly and clearly drawing a conclusion of "justifiable homicide", nothing more than an official statement may be requried to clear the shooter of all legal repercussions.

Most nations bring murder/manslaughter charges by default, followed up with detention for the - sometimes quite lengthy - remaining duration of the investigation.
>>
>>34072399
this really.

self defense is simply an affirmative defense to a murder charge.
>>
>>34072546
>>34072399
In most cases if it is clear it was in self defense prosecutors probably wouldnt waste their time pursuing it.

What about it? People shit on it because it was huge, but they forget that it was pretty flush and practical by the end of its life cycle. Combi-guns are a stupid clunky idea to start with and it would never have been that great with only a 20mm launcher, but Id have been curious to know just how small and handy they could have gotten it with 2017 electronics and design approaches.

Nofuns here /k/.
I need to ask a question.
I often hear you guys on here talking about how the SA80 is shit and how the FAMAS is also overrated. Now I'm not here to argue, but I want to know why in each case.

>>34071748
The sa80 is shit because of its heritage, it came from the AR18 which was designed like an AR15 but out of lower quality material and less quality control than a regular AR. Think folded sheet metal versus milled steel. The AR18 was pretty much a commercial failure but its original purpose was to sell to poor nations who couldn't afford standard AR/M16s. The British took it and made it into a bullpup, which usually means poor handling and weight problems when you just turn a standard rifle into a bullpup but a problem with almost all bullpups is a creepy as fuck trigger.
>>
>>34071782
I see, thanks for clarifying.
I suppose that is what is wrong with the FAMAS too right? What do you mean exactly by creepy trigger?

What is the smallest (by weight) armored vehicle that carries a MBT gun like the 120mm Rheinmetal?

And let's say that it has to have enough armor that when buttoned up it's impervious to small arms fire so that it's not just a gun with wheels or tracks bolted on.

No, its just a low pressure gun, not a real MBT gun, the APDS penetration is like half of what a MBT can do.

Who do so many people and militaries fall for the bullpup fallacy?
86 posts and 20 images submitted.
>>
They dont, more countries are moving away from them than adopting them. They made sense during the cold war where infantry would be doing a lot of riding around in cramped APCs, but less so now. As for civilians, it literally does not matter, just buy what you like.
>>
>>34071241
bullpups are better because u can have the same barrel length in a smaller more compact gun. theres literally no drawbacks
>>
>>34071241
For some militaries, it isn't a meme.
What a bullpup gives:
1. Long barrel in short gun
1A. Good fragmenting range for 5.56 out of carbine length gun
1B. Low rotational moment on inertia and overhand, making maneuvering the weapon less tiring.
2. There's nothing else.
Disadvantages:
1. Feels wrong if trained on conventional gun.
2. CG is too far back for comfortable single hand carry
3. Short sight radius
4. Easier for gunk to build up in action
5. Face closer to boom tube
6. Not truly ambi (most designs)
And so on.
For many militaries however, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages; the shorter gun is better for CQC and carrying in confined spaces like APCs, they're quicker to point nd so on for reaction shooting.
For conscripts, disadvantage 1 is irrelevant, for 2 you've got a sling, 3 is irrelevant thanks to optics, 4 is a bit of a problem, 5 irrelevant with 5.56, so on the whole the bullpup isn't a meme for them.
If you don't ride a battlebox with 10 other people it may be a meme for you.

NO SHIT GUYS

I was absolutely going to email Mattis and even Trump himself.

I'm pissed the fuck off. I'm SICK of these mosquitoes!! Mosquitoes have KILLED more human beings that Hitler ever thought about!

They've killed more people than Stalin! MORE THAN MAO!!!


I've searched the DOD website but apparently they want a written letter MAILED to them?!

Am I wrong? WHAT IS THIS BULLSHIT!!!

What the fuck can I do to get them to notice how much I want these assholes GONE

I'm trying to buy an actual wardrobe after losing a fair amount of weight. The style I'm going for is industrial/insurgent. Think anti-fa, but with less punk and Hamas aesthetic. I'm also going for blacks, greys and maybe a sprinkling of Urban Camo.

Do you guys know good places to buy urban camouflage? How do I find military-style shit that isn't cheap Chinese shit which'll fall apart in a week, or needlessly expensive? Have you ever seen someone wear urban camo without looking like a faggot?
