So yeah, I almost ricochet'd myself in the face. Good way to learn a lesson at least, since nobody was hurt.

Time stamp and story OP.
Are you a kebab?
A kebabliminator?
A collector who somehow obtained one in the US or other country that's not currently ravaged by a war?

>>34059434
I find this sexy and I don't know why.

Black people are pretty scary

>>34058943
THRILLER!

>>34058804
It's pretty good for CCW, as for home you're better off with a long gun. I recommend the sport model, comes with factory tritium sights for defense and a tritium/fiber optic front sight for the range (fiber optic with tritium underneath it).

>>34058804
Fine for carry, but get something else for home defense.

Any recommendations for home defense?
I assume there's better suggestions than just "shotgun"

>>34058780
Take a look at that snout

The m1911 was literally the basis of the most famous code of how to safely carry a pistol.

Basically, cocked and ready but with the safety on.

>>34058580
I store all my guns (with revolvers the only exception) with a round in the chamber, cocked, and safety on if there is one.

100%
I was just there.
I time traveled here to tell you your thread sucks.

Exaggerated the same way We Were Soldiers was, which is well documented.

Things like increasing the number of enemy forces, increasing the number of American KIA/WIA, etc., and using undocumented/poorly documented sources.

Okinawa (the entire battle) had x3 the causalities of Omaha Beach alone. And at Omaha, only the first wave (Able Company) really got wiped out.

Was it brutal? Sure. Was it a total fucking slaughter and the worst fight in the entire Second World War?

Not even close.

For what purpose?

Unless the details of this laser are obscured somehow, if its either being reported more or less powerful than it is, it will not be able to beat a simple explosive 30mm shell. The article says it managed to 'burn a hole in a pickup truck'. Completely worthless. This is worthless against vehicles, against international law to use on soldiers, and realistically lasers can be countered easily. I forget the exact name of the material (aerogel? silica aerogel? I don't know) but a centimeter will stop even the nuclear-powered naval lasers dead. They don't have the benefit of complete pinpoint accuracy like they would in vacuum, and honestly I wouldn't be surprised if this has half the effective range of a 30mm vulcan. This is an interesting development, sure, and in fifty years lasers, liquid propellant, railguns, maybe even plasma based weaponry will be far more useful thanks to some futuristic power capacity or generation, but right now it's just a waste of resources. I think the article also inadvertently said what I just said with 'it's a proof of concept' too, anyways.

Kentucky Fried Kebabs.

Imagine the COIN/CT possibilities. When you have a plane kilometers away, and it can burn people to death, set cars on fire, detonate ammo dumps, etc.

The PsyOp potential is YUGE! As it will take a while for them to figure out it is an infidel laser weapon, and not the fire of allah.

As long as they fit your foot. I have extensive experience fitting and selling salomon and their boots, especially their forces exclusive models run chunky in the toe box and narrow in the heel. They also seem to be chronically sized wrong, my 9.5 us foot fits a 9 quest and 9 artic boot fine. If you meet all of these criteria then you should be good. The only thing im not sure of is the sizing. Good luck!

>>34059186
Ok anon much thanks, enjoy your everlasting adventures!

>>34058474
they're basically tall sneakers so its not like they're going to be bad, especially from a largely reputable company

Wear cheapo flak jacket over cheapo plates, kevlar will catch shrapnel.

>>34058394
>not taking truck bed liner and covering your plates in that shit
not the best but it does stop some

Would a soft armor vest on top of it work? Then the handgun rounds would be stopped by the vest, and the rifle rounds would be stopped by the plate and the spalls caught by the soft armor?

>>34058036
what range does it have before it needs fuel?
how fast can it go?
is it loud?

>>34058082
300-400 miles a lot get
40 usually max
fuck yea
