Can someone tell me about the strategic and tactical failures that led the NCR to a stalemate with Ceasers Legion until the intervention of the Courier? I've been hearing a lot about how shitty the NCRs standard issue rifle was and how their lack of heavy weapons or cavalry really screwed them over on the long Nevada front.

The real problem is that 5.56 somehow cannot punch through football pads, batting helmets, and cotton skirts lined with leather belts. Goddamn retro- future magical space polymers.
Also, steel power armor vs gladius/ thrown spear, desert sodomites win that one.
Maybe this is all because it is a videogame, and no matter how perfect,and how much we all love it, it belongs on /v/

Overextension and lack of force projection past the Hoover Dam. I can't imagine what a pain in the ass trying to supply an army in a post-nuclear Mojave desert would be. Keep in mind that at the time of the game, the NCR wasn't in the most stable position economically or politically. Given how stagnant the NCR was overall, I'm amazed they were able to keep it together as well as they did.
NCR was spread thin dealing with BoS, Great Khans, Fiends. Plus the Divide which probably hindered troops flowing into the Mojave and resupply.
My dad dry fired a bow i just bought. I brought it home and he wanted to see it, first thing he does is pull the string back and let it go.
I have no experience with archery or such. This was supposed to be the entry into that.
The guy i bought it from said dry firing it would cause it to shatter so What is the danger of this thing shattering now?
>>32620218
>dry firing it would cause it to shatter
How? It's doing the same thing regardless of the presence of an arrow.
>>32620296
Assuming OP isn't bullshitting, maybe it's such a finely tuned compound bow that the material requirements are factoring in the transfer of energy into the arrow?
But seriously, that sounds like total bullshit.
>>32620296
No. When you fire an arrow, all of the force is transferred to that arrow propelling it forward. If you loose the string with no projectile that force has nowhere to go and transfers to the limbs instead. It can severely fuck up the bow, once probably won't hurt it but depending on the poundage of the draw you do not want it to happen again.
>US 'should block China from new South China Sea islands'
Based Tillerson. What would be the best way to do so?
How could China respond?
That feeling when it will won't come true, Chicom fucking shits.

>Based Tillerson. What would be the best way to do so?
By not caring about the massive loss of life and ships trying to dick around <1000km from the Chinese coast would cause, for one.
>>32620118
They dont need to stop them, just let them build those islands.
But then you have to make sure that you fly and sail through the fake territorial waters created by them basically all the time.
Show them that you dont respect those claims.
>>32620118
That's like China trying to stop America from sailing past Guam.
i just bought this air rifle (it's a model of the L96) and the bipod rail that comes with it is slightly wobbly, and is kind of loose, especially when the bipod is mounted on it
2/3
Is it metal or?
is it normal for a bipod system to wobble? or did i get a defective version?

Is it a reboot or a sequel?
I keep hearing about how liberals want to ban assault rifles, which are capable of full automatic fire. I thought that civilian versions are semi automatic? Don't they know this?
>>32619745
They only know to judge a book by its cover. They only are able to create base judgements without thinking their actions and future actions through.
They never let the truth interrupt their narative.
Not that I care, I don't own a semi auto. I don't need one. Bears don't travel in packs like basketball Americans.
The ones in power(at least some of them)know full well the difference between assault rifles and semi auto civilian legal sport rifles. It's the voters that they lie to, that consider knowing anything about guns almost as bad as being a mass shooter, that honestly believe that crap.
Why are niggers, Mexicans, and overall gang bangers obsessed with extended clips? Poor marksmanship?
>>32619719
They're like big rims, except for guns.
>>32619731
>can't afford rims for my 90's caddy, might as well get extenzes for mai glawk fawty
Fucking niggers man
>>32619759
They just steal each others' rims back and forth. There's like 5 whole sets of rims in this town of 60k I live in and every week they're on a different car.

What an incredible piece of engineering these ships were.
Sorry /k/, couldn't find the specifics anywhere else. So, if I was to make some Acetone Peroxide and possibly even detonate it, would it be illegal? This is of course under the assumption (which would be true for my case):
-I have no intentions to harm people or property
-I detonate on my own private land away from other people
So, could I get screwed legally for this? I'm in Texas if that helps. Thanks /k/

Very illegal and incredibly unstable.
I was arguing with a friend about gun control today and I had a thought. Trump said something akin to "the government shouldn't be able to dictate what types of guns honest Americans can own." So let's say he attempts to pass a federal "anti-AWB" that preempts all state AWBs and renders them null. My (kinda antigun) friend argued that this would violate the Tenth Amendment and that the states have a right to regulate firearms as they see fit. So if something like that was to pass and be struck down by the Supreme Court as infringing states' rights, wouldn't it render any future attempts at a federal AWB as unconstitutional as well, and couldn't it possibly render the NFA and all of the ATF's rulings on firearms as unconstitutional as well?
His actual argument is that the 2nd Amendment only applies to Congress or the federal level. If it applies to states then his everything falls apart.
So ask yourself: does the 2nd Amendment apply to the states? It doesn't say anything about Congress, like the 1st Amendment.
>>32619307
>So ask yourself: does the 2nd Amendment apply to the states?
McDonald v. Chicago already extended the 2A to the states. What I was trying to get at in my post is, from a legal standpoint, couldn't the nullification of an "anti-AWB" on the grounds of states rights also technically render all federal gun control as unconstitutional?
It's irrelevant because an Assault Weapons Ban can't be denied on a states rights argument, because the Second applies to the states.

You now have a fully autonomous, face-shooting death machine.
What are your thoughts /k/?

They have this shit. I don't know if it was military invention first or camera world first, but you know the first words out of the mouths of the other was "Holy fuck give me some of that shit"

Be prepared.

True, but with open source software and a little bit of knowledge of robotics, you could make this easily with shit bought from amazon. In a crowded place, it would devastate efficiently, and not miss.
Burn heal/Anti-grinch squad edition. Posting this just so we have a place for info when Creep finishes finalizing the replacement Santas.
I got burned this year. Creep said he'd add me to the burn list a couple weeks ago, but I haven't heard anything since.

I too was grinched, pretty pissed actually was in the $50-60 tier, I'll be grinching my money back xmas 2017.

Since modern ammuniton will give you similar results, its cheaper, and you hold more ammo, AND more guns are chambered for it. What guns use fo five? 1911, Glock?
.40 S&W you filthy reprobates. It's the best of both.
