>co-worker at work thinking of getting a gun for protection
>Alright what did you have in mind?
>Probably a .45 for the stopping power.
>Why that and not a 9mm or 40?
>Because if someone runs into my apartment I want to shut my bedroom door on them and shoot through the wall, so I want something that will penetrate.
>Okay, any particular model in mind?
>Probably an XD, either the compact or the full size. See I want to conceal carry it with me but I'll want the extra rounds in the "clip" if I'm in a shoot-out.
>...Okay. This store that you're buying from, do you plan on getting any training?
>Nah, I'm just going to buy some ammo in bulk and practice with it. I'm pretty good naturally with shooting and it's just like "call of duty" for me so I'll be fine.
>Okay, I know you like the .45 but I'd recommend a compact for CCW and 9mm or 40 for more rounds.
>Nah man, I want a round that will shoot their arm off in one shot.
>(I explain how if you need to shoot you want to shoot more than one bullet)
>I'll just shoot them once and if I see that it doesn't stop them I'll shoot them again.
>(I explain why that's a bad idea, use 21 foot rule as an example)
>Then I'll just shoot the knife out of their hand.
>(go over realistic and legal concerns. Insist on magdump in that situation)
>Dude I don't want to kill anyone. I'll just shoot to disable them. Bro you're telling me that a .45 to your arm wouldn't stop you in your tracks?

So that was my day /k/. How was yours?

Are the FBI HRT considered operators?

>The HRT was originally conceived during the late 1970s, and was set up after FBI director William H. Webster witnessed a demonstration by the U.S. Army's Delta Force. When Webster reviewed the equipment used by the Delta Force and noticed there were no handcuffs, he inquired about it. An operator grimly replied, "We put two rounds in their forehead. The dead don't need handcuffs." The HRT was originally to be an augmented SWAT and counter-terrorist team, capable of handling extraordinary hostage situations, large-scale counter-terrorist operations, situations involving nuclear or biological agents, or operations that local law enforcement or the regional FBI field office were not trained or equipped to handle.

War is hell thread.

Specifically looking for WWI webms. Especially ones that appear in this video, but without the red filter; I know I've seen them posted here.

Half-assedly dumping until then. Almost entirely WWI stuff

i saw a bunch of grown fucking men this halloween dresses up in half-assed military outfits (dress uniforms and cammies). Half dressed sluts (mostly harley quins) were fawning over them every fucking time. When does this cross the line into Stolen Valor? Because I wanted to quiz the fuck out of them on the basics just to make them feel like shit.

I know the seals did it but the Military is out of their fucking mind if they adopt the Glock 19 as their main sidearm. It is not a good fit for military use.

1.It's not as accurate as the M9 was or as capable as longer ranges. While this might not be an issue for law enforcement where most engagements occur at 7yds. It should be considered a survival weapon in the military. Think of a pilot who is shot down. What do you want him to carry? a full sized field pistol capable at killing a man at 50m, or a shitty polymer police gun

2.Glocks are not comfortable for most people. Most people have to learn them. Seeing that military personel get literally no pistol training, this will not bode well for them.

3. torture tests are not enough for the military. These things are going to passed between more 18 year olds then a goddamn homecoming queen. If these grunts can manage to break an M9, let alone many M9s, what do you think will happen to glocks?

4.Longevity. How many Gen 1 glocks do you see around these days? Hell you can barely find any pre gen-3 glocks on the market these days. yet there are 70s Berettas that still function great.

Been thinking about grabbing a MAS-36 rifle for a while now, though I have been contemplating getting a latter model MAS-49 rifle. Any problems that you guys know to be present with the 36? And if so, would it be better to go with the 49 instead?

Especially 500 rounds of .22lr for $8

How is his advice anyways. He recommends a semi auto rifle in .308 for your main fighting rifle

>In simple terms, the Pentagon got sick and tired of talking with Lockheed and told them, here’s how much we’re willing to pay you. Take it or leave it. All terms had been agreed to by both sides except one — the price. This may well be the largest unilateral contract ever issued by the United States government. That’s what I’ve heard from two well informed sources, but we don’t have anything definitive yet.

>“The definitized contract for LRIP 9 announced today was not a mutually agreed upon contract, it was a unilateral contract action, which obligates us to perform under standard terms and conditions, and previously agreed-to items,” Lockheed’s F-35 spokesman Mike Rein said in an emailed statement. “We are disappointed with the decision by the Government to issue a unilateral contract action on the F-35 LRIP 9 contract.”

>Lt. Gen Chris Bogdan, head had indicated some frustration with the slow pace of contract discussions but also said he thought they’d have a deal by the end of the year at the Air Force association’s annual conference in September.

>DellaVedova said the latest contract equated to a 3.7% average reduction in price from LRIP 8 in December 2014.
