To what degree do we owe the Allied victory in World War 2 to the size and strength of the Royal Navy?
It seems to me that one of the major factors that prevented Nazi Germany from realizing its ambitions was its inability to achieve naval supremacy in the North Sea and the Mediterranean in the early years of the war, because it stalled Germany's attempts to resolve the war in the west before it began the war in the east.

>only HMS Belfast still exists
>>33909130
Of these, i think all the sunk ones are war graves and so cannot ever be touched ever without having a lynch mob after you, and the rest are long since scrapped, anyone know if any were sunk as targets?
Any recommendations for a rifle that shoots .223/5.56 and has irons? It can't be an AR tho. I live in a ban state where Ar-15's and other "assault weapons" are put on a registry
>>33908942
Mini 14
>>33908966
Currently on the top of my list. Some anons were saying that the rear sight comes loose easily while firing and can't hold a zero
>>33909058
I had that issue with mine about two weeks after I bought it. I put loctite on the screw and it hasn't happened in the two years since.
Was this a good gun to shoot gooks with?
They seemed to shoot fine once they started cleaning them
This was better.
>>33908812
AK is better
Why do waiting periods exist?
I'm 18, born and raised and live in the gunshine state but in broward county, the most liberal part.
I try to buy a marlin 795 for cheap plinking (.223 hurts the wallet)
I go through the whole process only to realize that this county has a 5 day waiting period on all gun purchases and now anxious all week
...w-why tho?
>.223 hurts the wallet
I say this as a friend. Quit now. This is not a hobby for you.
>>33908790
Dude you literally could have drove an hour and a half to Naples and avoided this whole issue.
If waiting 5 days is too much you should have just left Broward kek.
>>33908790
The California waiting period is 10 days AND we get extra shitty gun laws on top of that.
Found some pics from today's Victory Day parade? Post them.

Is this why amerifuggs hate them?
OWO
Armata is here...
So...I just learnt that GB has a no cancellations policy.
I accidentally clicked the buy now button on two FAL kits a few weeks ago (the first time I actually accidentally hit it with my thumb, and sat my phone down and accidentally sat on it the second time)
How fucked am I?
And I guess, if you're out there, I'm sorry gunplumber.
I'd have just rolled with them but I hadn't been payed yet.
Anybody else accidentally do stupid shit on gunbroker?
How serious do they usually take this the first time or two?
And who else here has been scammed via gunbroker?
I have a relative who's still waiting on his AR lower and the transaction is just shady as fuck.
>>33908373
To clarify, I've never been scammed, I'm here wondering how bad I fucked up.
The person who might be getting scammed is a relative and I'm just wondering how well GB handles these things.

Name a rifle more kickass than the spencer /k/
>loads 7 rounds into the butt stock
>strong falling block action
>powerful cartridge
>unlikely that youll have any issues with debris getting into the magazine
>used by the south
>impossible to fuck up
Its literally the mosin of lever gats.
>pic related its a spencer.
>>33908114
>literally
>>33908114
Spencers are cool, but are totally inferior to the old henry rifles.
>>33908184
Actually the henry is inferior. Historically they had much more problems with the henry than they did the spencer. Which is why winchester mad the 1866 yellow boy, which fixed the problems that the henry rifle had in the field.
So besides knives and guns, have you tried making guerilla warfare booby traps /k/?

Thoughts on this?
Will this revolutionized weapon production?
>>33908048
No it's for prototyping weapon designs.
>>33908048
Look, a lot of people don't get the point of 3d printing. Its for rapid prototyping, not manufacture. It sucks as manufacturing technique, but if you want a single or small batch batch of plastic parts, its great. 3d printing will not revolutionize mass production.
And you're a faggot op.
>>33908048
CNC milled receivers and 3d printed lowers have been around for a few years now. I'm not entirely sure what they're trying to prove here.
Can we militarize this /k/
I feel like this would be incredible in insertion missions for special forces and shit. Also maybe some ship boarding action if we find a way to not make the snowmobile drown.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRonRtbnI9A
Just get youse one of dose dem there quads what gots the tank wheels ands also a boat. Then youse got your problem solved.
>>33907930
But these are slow as fuck. Snowmobile have the ability to be quick and nimble.
>>33907936
Then makes it quicker.
What weapon would you reccommend for hunting? I am going to get my weapon licence soon.
Give us more information fuckface.
>>33907858
Atl-atl.
>>33907858
>5.56 70+ gr
seriously though, .308 or 30-06 will do you just fine. if you're feeling picky; 7mm-08, .243, .270, and 30-30.
Airguns and air rifles. From 10m target pistols, to big bore, big game guns and everything in between.
Want to share? Have a question about air rifles? Shoot.
who cucked you in to not buying a real gun?
>>33908329
British gun laws
Not OP but to get a 22lr over here you have to be a member of a gun club for 1 year and then buy a safe have the police ispect it and then apply for a licence
>>33908346
Kiwi fag here, your gun laws are the same as getting a handgun endorsement.
>Live in a country where i can't own this without a liscence, why exist?
also luger thread
>live in a country where you straight up cant own it
why even live
>>33908108
Can't you own the .22 luger-esque knockoff?
>>33908118
all handguns are illegal in the UK, period. bongs can have semi auto .22s, but they have to have a certain overall and barrel length like pic related
could a criminal just dremel off the little stick at the end and hack off the barrel extension? certainly, and i'm sure some people like the police would rather see these banned for that reason as well, even though the vast majority of firearms (mostly pistols) used in crimes are imported into the UK illicitly
It's time we designed a pen gun that's worth a damn
why?
because it will make us rich, and fuck you that's why
I was actually impressed by the mechanics of the old stinger pen guns (pic related) but there is a lot of room for improvement
anyone want to brainstorm on this?
the first thing I see over and over again is that you have to unscrew most of these guns to put a bullet in
maybe an interrupted thread screw like artillery guns have would fix this
and that would be the perfect range of motion for a pengun
Aren't pen-guns illegal/very hard to legally own?
>>33907353
Some are. OP's is legal because you no longer hide it as a pen when it is cocked.
