unless you reload your own hotload fuddy-ot-six in a custom-cut (read: chambered barrel blank bull-barrel), everything else is 308 <600yd or 338 for up to 1200yd.

Can I get that Swiss anon in here, please? I have a Schmidt-Rubin question.

My Schmidt-Rubin was totally smooth, and today I oiled it without getting it dirty or anything, but now the action is rough and gritty as fuck. I tried cleaning the action, to no avail.

What do?

This may not be the best place to ask this, but I figure you gun nuts know a thing or two about the military.

What's up with all the fucking coffee? I've been reading a lot of Clancy lately, and every fucking chapter coffee is mentioned at least 3 times.

Why aren't these guys swallowing caffeine pills, or dosing modafinil or some sort of amphetamine? Why fucking coffee of all the stimulants out there? WHY is our entire military (and other militaries around the globe for that matter) operating on coffee? Wouldn't that bias their decision-making somewhat? Yeah, caffeine gives you energy and revives your attention span, but the kind of headspace it induces is more conducive to repetitive tasks than coming up with breakthrough, out-of-the-box solutions and such.

I don't know

Something tells me it's probably better for a soldier to be sober at all times
>>
Other stimulant drugs are used, but pretty rarely. You do still hear about pilots getting "go pills" on occasion, though. Most of us just drink energy drinks anymore.

As for why, it's because the military is fucking tiring, especially at war. Long hours, little rest. I'd rather be awake with a lower attention span or whatever than asleep.

Any advice, /k/ommandos?

I already own a 9mm pistol that I love with all my heart. Sig SP2022, but that's all I got. Definitely looking to spend some money.

Probably going to be looking into rifles (Ar), but I'm open to getting a better caliber pistol.

Hola gentlemen. I run an Etsy shop making weapons, armor, and random clay shit. I want to show a few of my creations off and get some feedback on them, and input on future ideas.

It's as viable as CCing a turd.

Sure but if you ever have to use it you've just lost a collector's piece for at least 4 months.

Sure. Just make sure it's reliable and practice that 180 safety sweep.

works fine

people shoot 308s in 311s all the time with pretty good accuracy

probably have pressure issues
>>
Depends on your loads. If you're using mild loads for both, you should be fine. Unless it's the steel-core shit... It's not optimal, but lead and copper is soft, and deforms much more than .001 in regular firing. Just watch the pressure.

Why does /k/ hate this plane? It's almost literally one of the best things we have in the sky, the A-10's modular data bus, pod hardpoints and extensible flight control/fire control electronics allow it’s capabilities to be upgraded relatively simply as new hardware and software becomes available. The A-10C actually has some of the most modern and flexible fire control systems of anything flying with fixed wings and offers significant air-to-air capability with the right mix of pods. It has lots of room for computer and radar equipment, and wires, and it’s relatively simple control systems are easily integrated and upgraded with new tech. Look to target, off axis/beyond horizon fire control, extensive ECM and more have been planned and/or tested on the platform. If they spent 1/4 the cost of an F-35 on updates to the electronics of an A-10 the advantages of the F-35's speed start to fade fast. The A-10 begins to become a computer-targeting-enhanced, ballet-dancing munitions dump, waiting to unleash 12 different kinds of death from it’s weapons systems and cloaking itself in a fog of countermeasures so dense visual engagement starts to seem like the only option. The A-10 is NOT fast, it’s true, but it is also *NOT* to be fucked with.

It has tons of weight dedicated to an impressive but dated and inefficient cannon. It also has tons of weight dedicated to surviving hits that everyone else is focusing on avoiding. AAA can't even reach the plane at the altitudes it now engages from, and all that titanium isn't going to function against missiles the size of telephone poles the way it did against 23mm ground fire.

Tl;Dr it was optimized to fight a completely different kind of war, and is optimized to be used in a way that is no longer safe, effective, or neccessary. All its modern success is achieved in spite of this, not due to it.
