So i have disposable income for once and i was thinking about donating it to guns rights groups more specifically the nra since theyre a big name u know also they did pretty good swatting down antigun commies during the sandy hoax scare

I came across some yankee marshall stuff and he has a couple vids on how greedy the nra is

Does /k/ in general hate the nra? And is it true about greed in the NRA? Am i better off just keeping my money?

Like them or not the NRA pretty much IS the gun lobby. They've screwed us a little in the past, when the majority of the members were fudds, but nowadays they've grown much bolder and much less tolerant of "sensible gun control". Remember that they ended several politician's careers after the Clinton AWB happened. Is the NRA perfect? Far from it, but they're the only pro gun lobby group with any kind of political power, and you got to war with the army you have.

>Maybe some modern materials
>Long lasting battery powered electric motor
>Difficult to detect by radar
>Complete silent running
>Maybe not huge payload, but could deliver ordinance on target nearly undetected
>May not be fast, but this could be an advantage as top speed is far below stall speed for most if not all modern fighter jets, making them difficult to engage
>Also highly maneuverable further frustrating engagement by modern jets
>Only weakness is ground fire when flying daytime missions

Are we missing out on not modernizing biplanes and prop plane designs and adopting them in roles where asymmetric warfare would mean modern fighter bombers are more costly than is justified?

You have obviously never heard a radial plane before.

yeah, but the higher ups in most militaries would lose their shit if you even brought up the idea of using modernised "old" tech. Remember, if the cost is less than 100 million to buy and 30 million for 20 minutes of airtime its obsolete

Hi /k/.

I don't know much about parts kits but I was wondering if you can assemble most surplus rifle part kits at home with the required tool. Or is a gunsmith needed in most cases for the build?

Pic is an example I saw.

>>33836454
in most cases the required tools are roughly 300 or more altogether. the exception being the ar platform. at 300 its more cost effective to hire a gunsmith if its only one gun
>>
>>33836454
Do you have a drill press and a shop press?
And you'll need a no-go gauge for the caliber.

If not, then it'll cost a bit more than usual.

A Galil should be fairly easy on account of not needing rivets though.
Just headspace and pin the barrel and the rest of it's just pushing on and pinning the gas block and sights and whatnot.

I encourage you to go watch Flandres AK build videos (though he seems to think that a special tool is required for everything even though it's not)
And as I said, the Galil doesn't have any Rivets to my knowledge.

You can just beat the barrel into the front trunnion with enough time right?

Is the Mosin nagant PU sniper any different to a regular one in regards other than the scope? Or are they just as bad?

They were finished on a separate production line with the more experienced and skilled workers.

Or they were just rifles chosen from those that shot exceptionally well during final factory inspection.

I've heard it both ways and more and cannot find anything concrete on the Soviet sniper rifle manufacturing process.
>>
They were binned for being the most accurate of standard mosins and fitted with a scope and bent bolt. Other than that, they're identical.

My guess is that after they've been in use/in storage all these years, they're on par with any other Mosin. That and PU Nuggets are so god damn expensive.

>Or are they just as bad?

Lets say you have an Airforce that can only acquire Mig-21 and it's variants.
You can upgrade them, and their weapons to any present day system (including those currently in research) from any plane.

Is it possible to make them win a fight against 5th gen aircrafts?
126 posts and 31 images submitted.
>>
Technically, yes. Realistically, no.

Your best bet using something like a MiG-21 against a modern foe would be following the tactics the NVAF used in Vietnam. That means using heavily conservative ambush tactics in conjunction with air defenses to attack targets of opportunity. In Vietnam, that was comparatively easy because the North Vietnamese early warning network could see the strike packages comparatively far out and sortie planes as necessary.

With stealth, however, 5th gen aircraft, the paradigm has changed. The distances at which early warning networks can detect stealth aircraft is massively reduced, and the advanced EW suites on them mean that missions will likely flown higher, faster, and with standoff munitions compared to Vietnam. That means that the 5th gens may not ever be detected at all while still hitting targets with impunity. Plus, their advanced sensor suites make hiding your own fighters very difficult. Any air campaign would have ISR find airfields fairly quickly, with follow up strikes destroying any aircraft they could find on the ground.

Your best bet would be some kind of ambush tactics, somehwat like this:
>5th gens somehow spotted, either through visual early warning network or consistent use of same routes
>MiG-21s distributed to hidden airfields along strike path
>MiG-21s sortied after 5th gens have passed
>zoom climb, close as fast as possible for IR AAM/gun kill
>make a single pass and run the fuck away
This *might* work once, assuming the 5th gens and their supporting AWACS get complacent. But after that, all the assets that contributed to the attack are pretty much guaranteed to get fucked by the next wave of strikes.
>>
>>33835412
If they have a good C4ISR aircraft on their side and the 5th Gen Aircraft don't then yes it's possible. Hell look at how long the F-4 stayed a viable platform, especially with the ICE upgrade.

So /k, if you carry as often as you say you do then inevitably you run into a scenario where drinks are being served. Are you pic related? One or two? Cooter brown? Let me know.

So basically you're asking if we get drunk while carrying funs?

Go away ATF.

>>33834135
One or two hardly considers getting drunk. Just wanted a general consensus of attitude on the topic.
>>
The state i am in has a limit of .04 BAC when carrying. So my guestimation is 1 drink would be okay. Any more than that and you might be flirting with that line depending on how big you are/how much you ate that day.

What the fuck is this shit.

A linear fresnel lens is probably the most practical item that I've never heard anyone else mention in their preps. You do all the cooking and water sterilizing you want with zero fuel. Not exactly great for bugging out but if you're bugging in it's perfect
