It was doctrinal lag more than anything. Armies were unwilling to give up the capability for very long range and volley fire that was necessary in the First World War.

>>32374256
The old generals that ran the military had either never seen combat or hadn't seen it since the spanish American war. They placed entirely too much emphasis on individual long range marksmanship and conservation of ammo because their belief on war was 50 years out of date

You want a clockwork gun whose only reason for being is full-auto which you wouldn't be able to lawfully own at anything even remotely sane prices even in the few places in the developed world where it's lawful to own, has a problem with the rounds cooking off and has the aesthetic of a Glock mixed with a 2x4?

My advice: get a minimalist plate carrier and put polyethylene plates in it, they weigh 2.9lb apiece for level 3.

The catch is that PE doesn't stop steel core at close range, but it stops everything else fine and you can't beat the weight or multihit.

Mossberg 695 bolt action shotgun. Possibly branded as one of the department stores of the day.

Possibly a different model number as well.

Marlin model 55?

This is a fun subject but it would probably be better to start with an example.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Maling

This is one of my favorites.

To summarize, two Chinese states, the Wei and the Chao (Depending on the translation these names vary as far as how they're romanized; my copy of the Art of War is translated this way) were at war, and Chao called for help from the state of Ch'i.

Ch'i's commander in chief was T'ien Chi, although the true commander was Sun Pin, who declined the position when offered due to his status as an ex convict (long story, but to keep it brief, he was framed and crippled as punishment).

The Ch'i win handily at the Battle of Guiling, or Kuei Ling.

Fifteen years later, Chao and Wei have set aside their differences and attacked the state of Han. Always one to root for the underdog, Ch'i responds to Han's call for help, and T'ien Chi and Sun Pin go out again.

This time, though, the guy who fucked over Sun Pin, one P'ang Chuan, was in charge of the Wei.

P'ang Chuan had heard of Sun Pin's stunt at Kuei Ling, where Sun Pin ignored the enemies besieging Chao and went straight for the enemy capital, so as soon as he heard that the Ch'i were coming he turned around and took his army home to receive the enemy attack.

Now Sun Pin thinks of a crafty tactic. See, the state of Wei thinks that Ch'i is full of pussies. Taking advantage of that, Sun Pin's plan was to build a hundred thousand cooking fires the first night, then fifty thousand the next night, then thirty thousand, to give the illusion that the Ch'i armies were rapidly deserting.

P'ang Chuan falls for it hook line and sinker.

"I have always been certain that the troops of Ch'i were cowards," he allegedly said, "They have been in my country for only three days and more than half their officers and soldiers have deserted!"

P'ang Chuan, smelling an easy victory, makes an understandable yet devastating fuckup.

He left behind his heavy infantry and logistics trains, riding hard and fast with only shock troops and lightly armed warriors, keeping only his swiftest in order to reach the Ch'i quickly.

Sun Pin is waiting for P'ang Chuan in this place called Ma Ling. It's a narrow road, with steep terrain and heavy cover; the perfect place for an ambush.

Sun Pin has known that this fucking faggot P'ang Chuan fucked him over, and that he's in charge of the Wei army coming for him.

So, utilizing the sheer hardness of the vengeance erection he had, he tore the bark off of a big tree and carved into it "P'ang Chuan dies under this tree."

Then he put ten thousand crossbowmen around the valley and told them that when a fire was lit, to shoot at it, because Sun Pin wasn't going to let there be any chance of P'ang Chuan escaping this sweet revenge and if that meant massive overkill then so be it.

P'ang Chuan arrives that night and sees a tree with the bark stripped off and something written on it. Curious, he lights a torch to read the message.

Before he had even finished reading that he was going to die, the message presumably accompanied by a drawing of whatever an ancient chinese middle finger is, ten thousand crossbows had unloaded into his reduced force and thrown them completely into disarray. Realizing how much his shit had just been wrecked, P'ang Chuan killed himself, presumably while Sun Pin watched from the top of the valley touching himself.

The moral of the story is to not trust Sun Pin when fire is involved.

Well the most expensive sword scored close to 8 million $US, the most expensive firearms where a pair of pistols that belonged to George Washington. So Swords > guns, because more expensive is better.

How often do you have to deal with spergs? I presume they're pretty uncommon.

>>32372856

What do you mean by spergs? I'm not familiar with the term.

What does it cost to run your range for one year?

I'm gonn reply to this bait in hopes that a mod sees this retard shit post and bans your ass. Lay off the drugs and live in a better state. Maybe this will help bring you some clarity. Kys
