I have always been interested in this type of weapon from the dark ages; not because they look nice, but because I have always wondered how you should properly use it and in what situations they have an advantage.
The thing that has always bothered me is that you are supossed to use it both handed and therfore it leaves you with no shield to protect you. Yes, you can still use the sword to block attacks, but the incoming hit must be comming from a somewhat specific angle and it must not be that heavy. (This means maces and spears will fuck you up).
Also, swords are meant to kill you by slashing or stabbing you, so why make it heavier and therefore slower?
The advantage I can see to this weapon is that you have an advantage in range (unless you are fighting a spear) and you have a middle-ground between a sword and a mace.
Maybe it soldiers in horses could have taken advantage of this? But then you would have to use only one hand making the handling quite hard.
So /k/, what do you think?

Saw this pic in another thread. Anyone use these before? It's a chunk of cash to get the whole set for an accessory, but seems fun/useful.

What did they mean by this?

Maybe.

Nah. It requires a single shot weapon, that's super limiting. It'd be way easier to just carry enough ammo to supply yourself in muh SHTF. Carry common calibers and you're still set to trade/pickup. Ultimate "do-it-all" survival rifle would probably be an AR-15 with an extra drop in .22lr bolt. Carry some heavy 5.56mm for game, some cheap 5.56mm for general use, and .22lr for light small game.
Can you give some advice on what Rhodesian weapon I should get and where I can get it?

"I think everyone should have a gun but..... Assault weapons shouldn't be owned by civilians"
>>32531003
Assault weapons don't exist, so, technically they're right.
>>32531021
I'm pro gun as anything but it's kind of stupid not to call a gun designed specifically for assaulting enemy soldiers an assault rifle. It's just a category for something
>>32531003
>work atta gun counter onna military base
>every week or so have a dependa walk by saying how people shouldn't be able to own guns/point out AR's saying "they should ban these"
the level of fucking arrogance never ceases to amaze me
Wat do
>>32530923
Stick your dick in it.
>>32530923

If you spent less than $200 pat yourself on the back. If not learn to pull the trigger with your toe.
>>32530938
Yeah i know i fucking hate the bolt but i got it for $150 so its worth it also diddnt come with the cleaning rod or bayonet but still totally worth
Hey /k/ommandos, I'm studying to become a police officer. I plan to serve in Atlanta. I am having trouble deciding between a 12g or a carbine for my rack gun. What would be best for the city area of Atlanta?
>>32530805
A carbine is an infinitely better weapon.

What do you do when you finger fuck a gun?
>>32530562
Unload it
>>32530562
I drop the magazine, press a drop of lubricant on my finger, then slowly rub it around her magwell, listening to her, feeling her respond to my caress, then slowly but firmly press inward. Then I rack her, gently the first time, absorbing every nuance of her action, listening to her lewd sounds as the slide locks back, exposing her delicious chamber, then is released. Next I go firmer, dominantly working the action, and finally, steadily press the trigger, my body and the gun become one ecstatic being, man and machine meld into a perfect union.

So how ya holdin' up? Obey any state laws lately?
Seriously tho, a Glock 21 mag has 13 rounds standard capacity - being restricted to 10 rounds doesn't seem so bad (just three less shots) - just a thought...please hold me...
Why not G30S at this point

Any military/ex military on here? What do you guys think of weak cucks like this? Is it common to get depression just by going to boot camp?
>>32530235
He was depressed before he joined. Which is why he couldn't even hack Navy boot camp. So hes still depressed, and his failure compounds it.
Tl;Dr
People are people. This fag is just a depression case and the military thing is the smaller picture.

I'm going to Air Force BMT in a few months and I'd like to prepare in any way I can. I know I'll have to qualify on the M-16 and the M-9. If I can get an expert rating and the small arms ribbon while I'm there, so much the better. I've never fired a gun in my life. How much training do you think I'd need to do before hand to get a leg up on this?
>>32530133
better to go in with no bad habits
>>32530133
The rifles they are going to make you use are treated like shit. Keep that in mind.
>>32530148
This. They'll teach you, it's your job to pay attention. Never fired a rifle before boot camp, shot high expert. Later was even a rifle coach myself.
What do you think of the guns featured in Romeo + Juliet?
For those that haven't seen, each character that carries a sword in the play has a custom firearm in this movie.
