Would a 10.5in SBR be a good SHTF gun? After watching Blood Diamond and Black Hawk Down, I really want to do one of those sexy SBR A2 carbines.

How many rounds of 5.56? 2017-04-16 11:18:53 Post No.33667700

What is the average number of 5.56 rounds delivered to center mass needed to kill/incapacitate an OPFOR?
Incapacitation in this instance means rendering the OPFOR immobile and unable to effectively retaliate.
Is 2 - 4 good enough?

1 round of .556 will cause the entire abdomen of a human to rupture due to hydraulic fracking effect.

If possible I would appreciation an estimation both with and without kevlar plate chest armor.

>>33667700
On average? Probably between 1 and 2.

Hey /k/ sure it isnt a weapon but it is a way to protect your house and provide cover.
Thread topic? Security shutters for your home. Also note, rouge agents cant toss in a fire bomb..eer flash grenade with shutters down. Depending on the metal, a drive by at night with Tyrone shooting his hi-point glock assault gun wont even touch your glass windows.
Or do you think they will attract too much attention to your house out of the others in the neighborhood? Basically making it a liability.

Any time you're in a neighborhood with armored doors and bars on all the windows, step on the gas and get the hell out of there as soon as possible.
>>
I don't feel as though anything affordable would be bulletproof. I do like the anti-flash idea though. Also it would be interesting to see how they determine movement within the home if they can't see lights/shadows
>>
>>33667611
I agree on the bars on windows. These can also be justified as storm shutters. They look better and provide better protection. As for the metal screen type doors, you just get a steel door and paint it like a normal door with peep hole. From the street no one can tell, and then you have a normal screen door.
Trying to make my home look secure, not ghetto land level but more for tornadoes, hail and other outside influences.

Why would you attach a parachute to a free-fall conventional bomb?

It would fall slower, is this a joke?
>>
>>33667518
If you are flying low enough, you could get caught in the blast. By using a parachute or drogue or something similar, you allow yourself time to get out of range.
>>
>>33667532
But what's the point of having it fall slower?
>>33667540
Doesn't make sense in 99% of cases.

Why did so many American soldiers allow themselves to be taken captive during the Vietnam war compared to the Iraq/Afghanistan wars? Over 2,000 US troops were taken captive during Vietnam, compared to only a handful in the "war on terror."
Are modern soldiers simply a lot more professional, smarter, better-trained, and competent at the art of war than their Vietnam-era counterparts?

Because North Vietnam was an actual country with actual prisons

So is "the ISIS caliphate." So was AQII when they held territory in the mid-00's - they ran detention facilities right inside of cities like Ramadi. So is the Taliban in large parts of Afghanistan (just ask Berghdal...)

Why is 3 gun still a thing? Why hasn't 2 gun become more of the norm? It seems like it's pretty hard to find 2 gun competitions. The shotgun is more of a specialty tool. When I deployed, it was used for non lethal rounds for all of two months and then it was taken away as it didn't serve a purpose for us. Sat in the armory for the rest of the deployment.

i've never seen units with shotguns that had stocks on them, most of them were short barrel mossberg 590s for breaching purposes if i had to guess
pistol, rifle, and backpack shotgun is a pretty good combo imo
>>
Because it's a sport. Not everything you do in life has to be through the filter of tacticoolness. You might be shocked to learn this, but you can shoot 3gun not wearing a plate carrier and helmet too.
