Why are half-tracks basically unheard of toda? even in civilian off road stuffs, surely the armies of yesteryear couldnt have put so much research into something ultimately useless?

Because they're obsolete, the whole problem with tanks and tracked vehicles were that they didn't drive like an automobile. When we cracked that nut they went the way of the dodo.

but why? inherently more traction on the back of a vehicle would incread offroad perforamnce especailly on climb. yes?
>>
>>32763891
yes but why have the car front half if you could have a full tracked vehicle? it was a stopgap. it worked, it was awesome but at the end of the day it was never really going to be the final product for its role.

How would large scale warfare be fought today? Like, massive armies mobilized.

From what I've seen of the Middle Eastern wars, it's mostly platoons of soldiers semi-isolated and dug in trying to steadily gain ground.

Since we have missiles and aircraft shit now, I don't think we'll ever see another clumped up army charge again.

Would a World War 3 be massively different to how WW2 was fought? If so, how?

I've been reading rumors on the internet about the US invading Brazil sometime soon because of some serious scandals involving the Fed and Brazilian corruption, I've even seen some threads about this on 4chan and other imageboards, it seems serious so I'd like to ask /k/ what is the prospect of a Brazil-US war. What is it going to look like and is it true that it will be Vietnam 2: carnival warfare boogaloo?

Hi guys! I am an European prepper looking for a .22 rifle to hunt small game if society collapses.

Now my main concern is durability of the rifle.

Is bolt action more reliable than semi automatic?

Is wooden stock more durable than synthetic one?

Which .22 do you recommend?

>>32762957
Also which .22 ammo is best
>>
>>32762957
get a CZ 455 or 452
bolt is more reliable and allows you to use CB caps or shot cartridges
>>
>>32762957
>>32762966
Bolt action is more reliable especially on a .22 because .22 is dirtier as a result of the primer.
Wooden is heavier in general and synthetic is a bit stronger, but it depends on the type of wood. Being a .22 it's probably cheaper wood.
Ruger and Savage are genarally the best in the world of .22 semiauto.
CZ are good in general.

CCI makes good quality cartriges. Aguila if you want match quality.

Opinions on the Mauser 96(6,5x55)?

I've been thinking about picking up hunting, and m/96's are between $10 and $15 here in Sweden.

Thoughts?

For that price you really can't go wrong. They are very well-made rifles and 6.5x55mm is a pleasant cartridge to shoot.

What (1) weapon would be by your side in an age of anarchy?

Let's say Trump get's JFK'd and civil war breaks - you have 1 weapon to take with you to defend yourself / your group / your family.

Which weapon and why? For me it's pic related.

Ammo is cheap, everywhere, and the weapon is powerful, durable, reliable and accurate. Try and argue this.

I imagine it's quite easy to play dead when you've been shot 5 times.

Can anyone tell me which, if any, real guns this vidya space-gun's shape is based on?

Back panel design on slide appears to be modeled after Glock pistols, but Glocks are fully square at the back of the slide. Hand position/angle of the pistol's grip is closer to Sig pistols; there's a grip safety that looks a lot like some 1911-model pistols, and the mag release also appears to be a round button, similar to 1911s, but it's ambidextrous, which 1911s aren't. The bladed trigger is seen most commonly on many Glocks, as well as some other mostly striker-fired pistols (it's an additional safety measure; you have to depress the trigger blade to properly engage the trigger mechanism & fire the weapon, just like with the grip safety on the back side of the handle). It appears the paddle just below the rear sight is a thumb safety, not a decocker (both seem superfluous; striker fire pistols don't normally have decockers, and a thumb safety seems like overkill on a gun that already has a grip safety & a trigger safety). The slide release (paddle just above the trigger guard in the top & middle renders) is somewhat reminiscent of the paddle-style slide release found on several HK pistols (USP, P2000, VP9, etc.).

Additionally, it appears to have a slide rack assist (silver knob on the back-left side of the slide), some sort of integrated suppressor (the big extension/block thing with the mesh-type texture on the front), as well as a flashlight/laser mounted under the barrel.

I have no idea what the black knob just above the trigger on the right side of the gun is.

I don't recognize this as modeled after any specific pistol, but rather a somewhat amateurish amalgamation of a number of different popular modern pistols.

what the fuck is that thing? it just juts out the side of the frame and part of the slide.

It's either an ammo count screen or a light for lock on confirmation.

Trying to summon Oppenheimer. I'd really like to learn about nuclear proliferation, and what books are a good start for that. I have access to a college library, so I should be able to get obscure stuff on interlibrary loan.

Oppenheimer more or less dropped his trip because of all the retarded tripfag drama it'd cause every time he showed up, he did pop up once to correct somehow who was claiming he'd said things he didn't actually though, so he's still here. He'd usually post this reading list whenever someone asked.
