Only gun is a lee enfield. I want some modern molle synthetic load bearing gear to go with it.

Would it be a good idea to get an RLCS and a bunch of grenade pouches to hold the .303 clips? What else do you guys put on your load bearing gear?

I just left active duty as a Airborne 13F from the 82nd, and I'm in a Reserve Quartermaster unit as a shower laundry guy now. It could be worse.

Post mau maus!

Well, fuck. The next school shooter is going to be the community resource officer who thought the entire freshman class was going for his gun between periods.

thats the whle point of a holster.... find me one that doesnt cover the trigger.

>>31792867
The ALS, the most common type of holster in LE, does not cover the trigger guard completely if it's a light bearing holster. Seeing as most PDs use glocks and a glock's safety is the holster itself, it's just a shitty situation all around. The guys that have to wrestle people that may grab their gun shouldn't have a half exposed trigger. Of course if the damn thing had a safety like it should this wouldn't be a problem.

So basically my options are
>no light on gun while working night shift
>trigger exposed and open for anyone to glockleg me

I have three bags of these fuckers. Different sizes, but all unused and dark blue.
No idea what service they're for, but the lack of army property stamps leads me to believe they're police kit.

Back in /wgg/ we did a survey to find out the biases of posters there. The result was that 67% of people were redfor slavaboos.

ALEPPO, SYRIA (the PM 12:45) - of The Kurdish-led "Syrian Democratic Forces" (the SDF) Carried out a successful The ambush Against a group of Turkish Army soldiers and the Islamist Rebels near the key town of Mar'e in northern Aleppo.

According to the a pro-the rebel "Syrian Observatory for the Human Rights" (SOHR), the surprise attack WAS Carried out AT the Twihineh area of northern Aleppo, near the Shahba the Dam.

of the SOHR Also added That MANY Turkish soldiers and Rebels Were Killed Seized as with a result of this abrupt attack in northern Aleppo on Saturday night.

Can someone redpill me on war in general? All I can tell from clips is people shooting randomly from cover at nothing at particular. What range do small arms have? Artillery? How would an actuall assault on an urban area play out? How many soldiers in a formation? Are my questions making sense, I don't even know how to ask properly. Thanks

OP: As always, feedback, suggestions wanted and appreciated.
Welcome back to a new thread everyone. I’m thinking of doing another “special” or rather “extended” thread soon, and I’ll probably run a poll of some sort, so keep an eye out for that.
Otherwise, regarding the Type 87, there’s really not too much to say about it. In what seems like a trend in my discussions of JGSDF equipment and experience, what their vehicles lack in combat history or in innovation as such, they make up for in being efficiently designed and capable tools for their specific roles. The modern Japanese military has a history of taking on technology from the west and incorporating it into their domestic designs, from the navy to the ground forces, and the Type 87 was no different as it stuck closely to the tried and tested value of Oerlikon’s 35 mm AA suite. What resulted, as we all know, was an impressive piece of modern battlefield equipment with a mix of indigenous and foreign componentry. Currently around 50 are in service, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future. If anyone has any interesting translated Japanese sources, I would be eager to know.
Finally, I would like some extra, or more obscure suggestions that I haven’t done yet. In the area of SPAAGs and other AA systems, there are always a peculiar bunch of prototypes that never made it to the production line.

Also, I found this on imgur recently, it’s an impressive overview of the equipment in PLA formations on a unit basis, and a partial look at its order of battle. https://imgur.com/a/wk2zo#LMS1lXX

More tank news, as per the new format.
If you have more queries regarding a news story, just point it out, and I’ll further elaborate and provide links.

The Italian Centauro II was exhibited on the 19th of October at the Checchignola Army Range on the outskirts of Rome to a gathered crowed including the Deputy Chief of the Defence Staff Danilo Errico. The Army is reportedly intending to purchase 150 of the Centauros, a joint venture between Leonardo and Iveco.

The Turkish military and defense officials are currently contemplating whether to upgrade its vast fleet of M60 Pattons and Leopard 2 MBTs. Industry source state that the prospective upgrade of around 100 vehicles would cost Ankara nearly $2-3 million USD per vehicle, with the contract being likely forwarded to the Rheinmettal – BMC – Etika Strategi joint venture group RBSS.

The United States Army’s Combined Arms Centre is currently initiating revisions of the Army Field Manual 3-0, effectively the defining document on the fighting doctrine of the Army in unified operations. The new and updated doctrine will liely debut at AUSA next year, with profound implications for the future of the US Army.

NORINCO is expected to debut the export variant of its ZTQ light tank at the Zhuhai Air Show, designated the VT-5. Furthermore, a successor the ZBL-09 wheeled armoured fighting vehicle is also expected to be unveiled at Zhuhai, with a new chassis based on the VP-10.

The Ukrainian satellite manufacturer Yuzhnoye SDO is collaborating with Rheinmetall to develop a new air defense system with 35 mm autocannons. Based on the chassis of a wheeled APC, it will also equip the common Oerlikon Revolver 35 mm.

And that’s all for now.
