.45 ACP is the only choice for a USP in my opinion. If you want a fuckin 9mm buy a Glock 19.

>>32225889

this desu

>>32225865
Get the .45 and then get a 10mm barrel for it.

Like in "The gun was registered in his name?"

>>32225521
Registered guns in the US is a meme. Only IL does anything like this, unless you count machineguns.

>>32225521
Media through and through.

Or it refers to what the califonian commies are starting with the scary salt rifles, but as far as people saying it generally, there is no registry present.

>>32225517
That's a Mossberg 870 if I've ever seen one.

But I'm looking for an identical gun like this one. I like those marks on the wood.

How so?
I thought they just introduced an MLok model and that they're bretty gud so far, though they are approaching KAC tier in pricing.

Brick and mortar stores are dying, its a lot more complicated than you think. Judging by the thread you created, you will do poor in your endeavor

No online sales in NY though so we have to rely on brick and mortar

For $20 more you could have gotten a 500 or 870.

Is this 'Why does x have lines?' thing a new meme? There's another thread just like this about Glock slides.

>>32224534
Yes, because they had bombs attached to them. That's why the planes in 9/11 were also effective because they had bombs attached to them.

>>32224534

Yes they were, and especially the case for Japan, since it had no fuel to train pilots to proficiency hitting bombs and torpedo.

Something like 11% of Kamikaze hit their targets, while in the last naval battle where Japan used conventional tactics, they landed one bomb hit in exchange for 500-600 aircraft.

USN air defense had gotten so good in a pitched battle that a conventional attack on large combatants was suicide.

>>32224718
>>32224738
>>32224534

No. The Kamikazes were a senseless waste of men, materiel, and strategic resources in the name of a suicidal ideology. If anything, they only speeded Japanese defeat.

British Battle dress just made you look goofy and makes your body look shitty.

Most city state had very well trained and equipped volunteer militia, usually equipped with spears or pikes, as the core of their army. Trained to take down charging knights from neighboring kingdoms. They were very cost effective against knights. especially with time to dig in. They were a marked improvement from conscripted peasants that were feudal infantry.

Germany in particular produced mercenary company but the hundred. Cities would hire them out for utility and specialist roles in an army. Things like siege engineers, Crossbowmen, anti spear Landsknecht and scouts. Heavy cavalry would often be provided by the city elites but they were generally fewer in number and not as effective as their more feudal counterparts as there were usually merchants sons and could do the daily insane training of full time knight.

Most of my knowledge is of Italy and Flanders, but this stuff is fairly universal for city states at the time

>>32224668
Were there any units from any specific region or city state that stood out on their own?

That is a huge time gap, OP. You can go from tribal warriors like these fellows to heavily armored pikemen in the Renaissance. I assume you're talking about the Italian Renaissance, and not the Carolingian Renaissance... if you want the latter then you are looking at a much shorter time gap

> 1) Missiles that attempt to counter stealth specifically

If you wanted to do this, make it "dual seeker". Have the missile be guided by radar on the way in, but switch on an IR seeker for terminal guidance. To my knowledge, there is no such missile in service right now that can shoot planes.

> 2) Missiles that are anti-EWAR/anti-C3 and related systems - particularly the interplay with the EWAR systems trying to jam them.

Numerous missiles have "home on jam" features, where they fly towards the most powerful jamming source. Missile that do this do not need to have the launcher provide guidance, or go active themselves. However, these missile have reduced range since they can't follow a ballistic trajectory like conventionally guided missiles. Flying in a straight line is actually very wasteful.

Russia and China have "home on radar" air to air missiles, which are Anti-Radiation-Missiles that are designed to go after AWACS. AGM-88 HARM can do the same, but it has less range due to being smaller.

> 3) Missiles that are "homing" - I know there are IR missiles and contrast missiles and such; are there any that have a sort of "pan-spectrum" approach that can lock on to pretty much anything?

No, each seeker head only uses a specific mechanism to find it's target. The closest one to being "pan-spectrum" is Brimstone, which has a milimeter-wave seeker as well as an imaging IR seeker. However, Brimstone is an anti-ground missile.

> how does jamming and countering jamming work

You can jam an IR missile by shooting an IR laser at it's seeker head, a technique called DIRCM (Directional Infra Red Counter Measures). Flares (or the sun) simply provide another heat source for the missile to home on. Modern IR missiles are basically immune to flares, since they have imaging IR seekers, so you need a plane-shaped flare (those don't exist yet).

Jamming is flooding the wavelength your enemy uses (for radar or communication or whatever) with assloads of electromagnetic noise, rendering meaningful signal detection on that wavelangth impossible. The counters to jamming are to use signal processing techniques to resolve the signal out of the noise, use a more powerful emitter to make the signal easier to resolve over the noise, or to hop frequencies to one that is outside the jammed spectrum.

The most recent public jamming and ECM techniques are fifty or sixty years old, and there is probably a significantly more subtle game going on in that field today, but that's the basics of it.

>1) Missiles that attempt to counter stealth specifically - is there anything out there that you would save for shooting at a F-117, for example?

This has nothing to do with the missile and everything to do with radar guiding it.

>2) Missiles that are anti-EWAR/anti-C3 and related systems - particularly the interplay with the EWAR systems trying to jam them.

You don't really use a special missile to go after most types of C3 systems. What your are probably thinking of are Anti Radiation missiles, which are mostly used against radar arrays, but could potentially go after some communications or jamming gear.


>3) Missiles that are "homing" - I know there are IR missiles and contrast missiles and such; are there any that have a sort of "pan-spectrum" approach that can lock on to pretty much anything?

The short answer hear is no.

a missile knows where it is by knowing where it isnt

Honorable mention to BAE systems for having the most enjoyable name, and also to Harris Corp. for giving a good friend of mine with some mental issues a good, stable job that has really turned his life around.
