Hey /k/ I just read an article about a new type of body armour designed to be light and flexible. Its made with a combination of ceramic balls and some kind of foam, now I'm wondering, what does /k/ think of this?

>what does /k/ think of this?

We think you should put a fucking link to what you're talking about.

Never heard of it, link us fampai

also just from the sound of it it's likely heavier than the equivalent hard armor

Not OP but this is it I think.

http://www.wpafb.af.mil/News/Article-Display/Article/973563/flexing-in-the-line-of-fire-lightweight-flexible-body-armor-for-the-force-of-th

>The new armor plate uses a ceramic ball matrix encapsulated in foam material, which is then backed with multiple layers of polyethylene sheets.

>“These are game-changers,” said Goins. “Our flexible body armor is 50 percent lighter than current models and much thinner. Not only that, the armor can conform to both male and female body types, be dropped and still used, and protects against multiple hits. There’s nothing like this out there.”

the closest thing is a .22 single shot rifle

Ok, so I read the sticky and found no pertinent information on the subject of higher caliber ARs.

What in /k/'s opinion is the most well built, and cost effective .308 or 30-06 AR available on the market?

I remember hearing somewhere that the SR-25 was a meme and wasn't reliable but is that true? Are there any outstanding competitors?

I like you.

There are basically two patterns available: DPMS and Armalite. IIRC, DPMS patterns make up something like 80% of the market, so going with one of those would be the smarter move.

As for specific brands, I'm not entirely sure which give the best quality/price, though telling us what your budget is would definitely help in narrowing down a nice rifle or good components to assemble one yourself.

Possibly a bullseye lantern, and maybe a bell? You could do an hourglass, too. Have him ding the bell every half hour and announce that all's well.

If your PCs take out the watchman, roll against a probability that an insomniac citizen will wonder why the bell didn't ring.

>>32586251
Thanks, any sort of obscure weapons or peacekeeping equipment?

roll for the insomniac citizen really being a werebear who needs the bell ring every half hour or he transforms and kills everyone ending this stupid fucking thread and causing OP to have an aneurism so he dies a painful fucking death for being a huge nerd for talking about something that in truth i actually like but i'm afraid to admit because i was raised in a household where acting like a white kid was frowned upon and thats sad because alot of my friends were like this and became drug addicts but its ok because they have welfare even though i'm not ok with the welfare state they are my friends so what am i supposed to do?

What country has the best ground force in terms of ability etc.

Who are the top 5 countries Army/Marine wise (Not navy, airforce)

USA?

How close is Russia & China to USA.

Also what about Australia and Europeans? Please give me a top 20 list.

Well if you're purely going off ground forces Russia stands out as having more armor than anyone else, and more self propelled guns. That said without airpower or navies China still has a couple hundred million they can afford to throw at you
