We don't like it. The rhodesia fanboism is from a very loud, autistic minority that thinks it speaks for /k/.

Hello /k/ first time posting here so I'm not sure if this is the right board for this...anyway how would someone go about making an armor like this, minus the mask, that is actually bulletproof? I've seen a bunch of people recommend motocross body armor but that's no bulletproof, any way to make it bulletproof or make something else like this, I'm just looking for a good lightweight bulletproof armor that looks kinda stylish ya know? Any help will be appreciated
>>32295090
First of all, look up standard bulletproof armor and tell me if it's sleek and form fitting.
>>32295090
you'd be taking chunks of larger plates and cobbling it together into whatever form you need
said plates also cost a shitload if you want the light ones. heavy ones are much cheaper. all will be thick.
>>32295090
What kind of bulletproof? Against pistol calibers? Against rifle calibers?
Either way, it isn't going to be form fitting.
Alright /k/, so I've got around $600 saved up in my Gun Fund right now, and figured it's time to seriously start thinking about what to spend it on.
My original leaning were towards a pistol, a CZ SP-01 or P-01, but then I started thinking about saving up a little more and getting a Sig, which I've always wanted. Or really save up and get a nice revolver.
Then I started kicking around ideas for a snowflake AR15 build. I generally find AR15s completely uninteresting and boring, so I was going to do something kinda off the walls with it, but that project very quickly ballooned in price and complexity and now I'm not sure about it.
Then there is always the prospect of collecting more milsurp. I've had a Swedish Mauser on my list of things I want for a while now. A local shop also has some Ishapore 2A1s on the rack for a decent price.
Then again, I'm located in Dallas, so shooting rifles is an involved and/or generally disapointing experience becasue of how shit the ranges around here are, so I kinda think the pistol would be a better option, but I know how much milsurp is going up now and I'd like to get something before things really start getting scarce.
Picture unrelated, F16-XL, the only deta-winged plane I like

Anything other than a Glock is the wrong answer.
>>32295034
nothing, put it away for retirement or save it as an emergency fund
>>32295056
Maybe after the Gen5s come out. I've fired and handled several and I hated the way all of them have felt in my hand. It's like holding a Lego brick.
Why are flight formations always horizontal?
These no different from surface formations, even though being in the air allows you to use the 3D space freely.
I wonder what kind of non horizontal formations jets could make, like all of them in the same Y axis or a square with a fighter in front of that square, like a prism, or even a cube. And what kind of benefits those would have.
Ender Wiggin plz go

Allows the pilots in formation to more easily see each other. It's easier to turn your head to the side than to crane your next around looking for the other member of your formation.

That's an airshow type of formation. Actual tactical formations can be 1-5 miles apart from fighter to fighter with various altitude stacks. So yeah, they aren't all horizontal, you just don't know anything about tactical flying.
if a girl can single hand fire a .45, you can too

Still doesn't magically make it effective.
>>32295008
my dick can fire a .45 but that doesnt make it effective.

I was about to say, the trailer remined me of FF Spirits Within
>>32294812
there's like one AK in the entire movie. it's basically M4's and futureguns.
Well i got myself a nice pair of timerbland boots and I'm wondering if any of you guys use ballistol to protect your leather boots?
Also ballistol thread.
>>32294640
You probably COULD get away with that, but there are far better products out there for protecting them that are pretty cheap
>>32294640
It's ok for that but mineral oil isn't great to get on your skin, even if it's not toxic, it might be carcinogenic.
It'll also darken the leather. If you want that effect, Obenaufs LP is better and also waterproofs. Also look at Sno Seal. If not, just get a leather conditioner like the one Otter Wax makes.
>>32294640
Dumbass, just use vaseline or any other kind of dry skin lotion. Ive been using my wifes moisterizer for 3 years on my boots and they are good to go.
Why do people have such a hard time understanding this?
9mm is best tho
Correct me if i'm wrong but wouldnt .45 be a bad round for barrier penetration, being a large slow moving bullet, and 9mm be good for barrier penetration because its smaller and has alot higher velocity

Trump is a pussy and wont start anything.

Pocket Sand.
>>32294053
...pocket knife never crossed your mind?
Just bought my first gun.
Did I do good /k/?
I think you did.
>>32294027
Yes you did, now go shoot it.
I have the Springfield equivalent(s), they're my favorite guns to shoot.
>>32294027
we can tell young fudd
Do any of you reload for your M1 Garand? Is it worth it? What do you use to reload?
>>32293998
Garands are only designed to fire .30-06 ball ammo unless you get a ported gas plug. If you're going to reload 30-06 for it you'll need to reload it to the specs of the ammo your Garand is designed for unless you get the ported gas plug then you can adjust the rifle to fire higher or lower power 30-06.
>>32294037
there's the ported gas plug, it in theory provides more space to lessen the gas spike, which is more "install and forget it"
then there's the schuster screw plug, which you have to adjust for different loads.
>>32293998
Why not buy a M1A? Literally better in every aspect.
Soldiers, what age did you all enlist at?
Just turned 28, company i work for is in the works to be sold, so now I'm thinking about whats next.
>>32293949
I was 23 when I joined and was the third oldest there, I felt like an old man.
>>32293955
and I'm 5 years older than that. I just potentially want a full service, damn
>>32293949
20, I joined right after conscription was replaced with a proffessional army.
Next year conscription will be back as they realised that only having a small, expensive proffessinal army is stupid as fuck when you are a small country.
How did you made/get your illegaly owned machinegun /k/?
