No need to crimp .223, especially anything you want to be accurate.

>>31820110
couln't that lead to a bullet setback durring feeding?

>>31820092
Not an expert on reloading, but a "crimping groove" is called a cannelure.

Do you have to misuse the word formulate

Popular opinion doesn't matter if a majority of elected officials share an anti-gun ideology. That's just the nature of a republic.

>semi-automatic guns known as assault rifles

California here

Politicians don't give a fuck if they don't have anything to worry about. Guess who doesn't have anything to worry about? The fucking president. They get four years in that seat and if they want to fuck you up and down the block they will.

Just build one m8. It's easy and fun and you'll know the internals of your weapon better that way.
Nothing wrong with the Oracle but if you want to be a gun babby the M&P15 Sport II and Ruger AR556 are better.

>>31819605
How are they better?

>>31819625
Building rifles is an out-dated meme. It used to be that pre-assembled rifles fell into two categories: entry level shit and high end wakery. Now, for any rifle somebody could build, you can find the same thing in a pre-assembled rifle for the same price or less. Lots of mid-tier rifles on the market now that there weren't a few years ago.

The BS-69 Cock rocket "is capable if wiping out parts of the earth the size of Ur Mum" My ass reported about 10 seconds after I clicked submut

In other news, russian state news is full of shit. More at 11.

You don't have to be cost effective when you have the world's largest GDP.

>>31819370
sure, but if you have ten MLRS systems ready to fire and the enemy is shooting back with nine thousand BM-21s you're kind of hosed

Is this a troll thread?

Don't, H&K fucked up the CETME design really bad. The originals made by CETME themselves were better quality than H&K. H&K used shitty polymer materials, a confusing drum sight, and reversed the controls.

>inb4 PTR fags try and defend their shitty purchases.

Why not just buy one? Cheaper that way.

>>31819170
its a fucking meme dont get one
only literal faggots buy anything made in europe
just buy yourself a mosin nagant its the only gun you need

>>31819142
for 9mm, Get shield, trigger aint great but not too terrible. Apex triggers available if it bothers you that much.
For .380, get LCP. Only option

I have both, love both. Carry shield everyday. LCP on standby in case shield is too big

Shield *used* to have a shit trigger. It's gotten slightly better over years thanks to minor revisions to the sear. It still benefits IMMENSELY from an Apex DCAEK and trigger upgrade.

Of the ones you mention, I'd be looking at the Shield or the G43. Shield is a solid all-around gun whose primary issues revolve around the bad-to-okay trigger (easily fixed with the aforementioned Apex kit) and the fact that the mag release rusts like a motherfucker if exposed to heavy humidity/sweat and isn't kept lubricated.

Personally, I like my Shield, but if I had to do it over again I might have gone G43. Shield aftermarket support is pretty decent, but it'll never match Glock's even if it beat it to market by like 2 years.

If you want a good 9mm single-stack then get a Smith & Wesson Model 39.

Because it would be stupid and a waste of money.
Kinda like bringing back metal cuirass as general issue body armor.

Too much Dosh, the Zumwalt is launching in less than a year and does the same job.

>>31818911

A better anology would be spending the effort to restart P-51 Mustang production for the COIN role because it has better performance than the Super Tucano, even though said performance increase would not at all be worth spending the billions it would take just to shit out a handful of aircraft for a specific role. The Iowas are basically less efficient Burkes when going by their raw combat capabilities.

Because experts stupidly think a little armor is useless, the focus on air power meant battleships and artillery never got the funding or attention they deserve, and because the Zumwalt basically is a modern battleship(without armor sadly) with tiny primary guns that are much more accurate and can reach out nearly a hundred miles. No clue what railgun capabilities will do for it.

If every infantry battalion had artillery back up they'd never need airstrikes. If our ships had just A LITTLE armor the USS Cole would have laughed it off.

The concept of not getting spotted or hit is a good one, but that concept applies to soldiers too... and soldiers wear armor. The "all or nothing" armor scheme is still relevant in the modern age but ships have no armor anymore and a single hit can mission kill a billion dollar piece of hardware.

Its not fucking right.

The third one looks like a real sword with just a plastic hilt

>>31818845
*sword

>>31818866
sword implies funtionality

these are sords

I take all three knives and shove them up op's ass. There's still room for a machete and trenching tool.
