AK pattern rifles have proven to be cheapest and most reliable.

It is extremely rugged, accepting much abuse externally and it is able to function if poorly maintained or with foreign material within its mechanism.

This, and its price, is supported by its wide acceptance throughout the world and the nature of its users.

The AK is in circulation for African warlords, terrorists, counter terrorists, several organized nations including: all of the Eastern Bloc, China, Cuba, most of Africa, most of the Middle East, with variants used by: Israel, Finland and India(Only example of someone fucking up the design)

I know people will say that the AR is superior but, with cost and availability considered, it is hard to say that it is not the best rifle for the money and the reliability so, that when issued, it can be known that the user will be able to use it, even if they cannot care for it. There is only an argument presented here, by AR users and supporters, as it is the cheapest rifle of its type in the US, making its user want to justify their purchase by stating the rare flaws in its superior.

So ive got a topic to pick some of your brains about.

If the subtypes XIIa and XIIa swords are believed to be from as early as the 12th century, this is still a time where mail and heater shields were still the normal protective equipment.

Were these used in conjuction with some of the first useage of plate (plate gauntlets instead of chain) or were they just used in entire absence of additional armor to cover the weakness of just a sword?

Later, when clothed fully in plate, it makes a separate shield redundant and just using a later two hander sword better in two hands for maneuvering it into the enemy's weak points.

tl;dnr was there a use of technique or other equipment to make the use of the bigger two handed swords more practicable when mail and shield still ruled?

general medieval thread, as well

>>32577182

Why do you think there was an official standard?

And why do you think if there was in fact a standard, that this would be other than mere convenience?

A big guy may have been able to one hand the sword with a shield, or wear mail etc.... Smaller guys may have worn lighter armor or leather or no gloves etc....

Swords have always been a rare thing anyways, always very expensive

Yes, I think there were ways for people to use 2 handed weapons to fight people who would have had a shield and a sword or axe or something. I study KDF and there are ways to use your reach with a longsword to get around peoples defenses, id imagine its similar as to fighting against buckler.

That said I also think that during that time period, unless the mail worn was very well made , that a longsword thrust or even a hefty cut could cut through the mail and take an arm or something.

I spent a few years in Appalachia and I spent most of my free time out in the mountains in the woods. Most of the people there are the most honest and hardworking folks I have ever met,
true 'Salt of the Earth' types.A small minority are absolute scum. It was the latter that I mostly tangled with while innawoods. I am a sneaky guy but I had a few close encounters while helping landowners or just exploring; I have removed squatters, been stalked by moonshiners, and jumped out of a meth lab window.
>I hung around a local gun shop because the guy who worked the counter was a genius ballistician.
>Most of the regulars were older guys who had retired from good union jobs with the railroad or power company or whatnot, and had a good bit of surplus money.
>A lot of them had inherited their deceased family's land but were too old to properly utilize it. Taxes were cheap, so it was just left abandoned.
>Empty land in those part of the country attracts undesirables like bugs on a bumper, and they would complain about poachers, dopers, moonshiners, and all other ,miscreants
>One day, a regular comes in to buy a "carry gun", he had taken over his dead brother's land and found some squatters on it.
>One of them pointed a long gun at him when he told them to pack their shit and get.
>He decides on a nice old Ruger in .44 Mag I had been eyeing
>I volunteer to help him get rid of the squatters since local law enforcement is pretty much non existent
>He says they are down on the river bank, so I park my truck a couple miles upriver on the opposite side and start working down river.
>After an hour or so I see it, a piece of shit camper on blocks with some ramshackle outbuildings surrounding it.
>I unfold my burlap hide, take out the Bushnell bird watching binocs my Nana gave me when I was 10, sit down, break out my carrots, and wait.

> Then next day the schedule is the same, so I leave my hide and cross the river to poke around
>They are growing hydroponic dope in the shacks, no traps around.They are living off of canned ravioli and a Coleman stove, shitting in a hole.
>I figure I wait a week, then we come up while they are out and trash the place, bust up their operation, and see if they run off.
>Take the old timer, his truck, my truck, and one of my buddies as a third, the .44 revolver, and my 10/22 goes to my buddy who climbs a hill as lookout.
>I get an idea.
>I take one of my towropes, hook it to my front tow hook, the other end smashes through the window of the camper and out of the window of the other side, loops back to my tow hook
>Mirror the process on the other end with old timer's truck and rope.
>On count of three we both reverse, camper is torn to shreds, debris is everywhere. Push the big chunks into the river with his brush-guard.
>Smash all the hydro equipment, throw that into the river.

After that I got a quiet reputation within that circle as a young man who could handle himself outdoors.
Some of the other guys asked me to look into their problems in the following months.

>>32573602
That December, one of the regulars approached me as I was leaving the shop and told me he heard about the job I did with the old timer, (who I now shot steel silhouettes with every weekend), and he had something similar.
>His nephew was a disabled guy who lived a couple towns down the road to the west.
>Nephew lived on his father's property since it was a ranch house, but couldn't really get around the land so it just sat unpatrolled.
>He had heard gunshots that fall, figured it was the usual asshole poachers, but the shots and late night ruckus had persisted past deer season
>He would go out and patrol in his truck once in a while and noticed his gate had been broken open and there were multiple tire tracks coming and going.
>They were headed down the old drive to an abandoned family farmhouse that was in a distant corner of the property up the mountain
>He wanted me to go make sure no one was squatting in his grandfather's farmhouse.
>Same deal, I parked the truck up by Nephew's house, got a compass heading to the old farmhouse and headed up the mountain on foot through the snow.
>When I hit the old drive, I followed parallel to it. Someone had cut their way in, lots of small trees down on the sides of the road, I wanted to keep my tracks out of sight.
>Got nearer to the farmhouse, I didn't believe I would find anything, but there were fresh wood chips on top of the snow, someone was cutting wood recently.
>I have a bad feeling and want to turn around, but I said I would look into it.
>I dismiss it as trespassing woodcuttters and pushed on to the house.
>Plastic sheeting in the blown out windows, oh fuck, someones is living here.
>Post up and watch for a while like usual, no movement, no smoke from the chimney, no vehicles, no dogs. God, how I hate dogs.
>Quiet for a while, decide to get closer: outbound tire tracks in the snow, not fresh.
>I really want to leave, but I gave my word;. I have to go inside and see this thing through.

Stop doing this shit, why must people plaster every rifle with a 10 feet of shitty quad rail you wont use 2 sides of, hence the rail covers. A optic when there is literally a bracket for an optic adapter on the side of the receiver, a shitty collapsible stock when the gun comes with the ability to fit a fucking folding stock. Why would you want a stock that always takes up 8 inches vs none.

And some retarded pseudo suppressor bullshit to top it off, it's not difficult to see why the guy holding the gun in a literal mouth breather. This isn't a "rifle in fine" meme post, this shit is just stupid.

I'm looking to hunt with a standard AR-15, not an AR-10. What caliber should I choose to get around the same power as .308? I'll be hunting white-tail deer mostly, but I'd love to hunt something bigger given the chance.

I'm not interested in hearing about "shot placement" bs. I want to be sure, so I don't cause the animal more harm than I have to.

This. There's quite a few states where .223 is legally too small of a caliber for legal deer hunting.

Luckily they make all kinds of uppers in bigger stuff.
