The Marine Corps is quietly rolling out a new initiative aimed at building Marines who are fit spiritually as well as physically. In coming months, discussions about spiritual fitness and making moral choices will be part of the curriculum at the Corps' Officer Candidates School in Quantico, Virginia, and at corporals' and sergeants' courses around the service, Rear Adm. Brent Scott, chaplain of the Marine Corps, told Military.com in an interview.

>"We're now at the tail end of what was a long war in Iraq and Afghanistan. We found that much of the resilience we saw was not necessarily attributed to something that somebody could do in the gym," he said. "A lot had to do with the heart and soul of the individual." Spiritual does not necessarily mean religious, Scott clarified. He breaks spiritual fitness into three parts: personal faith, personal values, and moral living and decision-making.

>"A moral compass doesn't just come from a faith foundation; it's not enough to make a decision based on what is legally right or wrong," Scott said. "Chaplains will help Marines discover that compass for themselves -- that center of gravity that comes from their own upbringing, personal experiences, and religious teaching." As a first line of effort, Scott said, his office is creating discussion guides around a book on the commandant's professional reading list: "What It Is Like to Go to War," by Navy Cross recipient Karl Marlantes, a Marine veteran of the Vietnam War.

So can someone explain to me why there aren't as many 5.45 AK pistols/SBRs as 7.62s? What's wrong?

Just ordered this, I used to have an m1a UltraMatch back in the late 80's, had to ditch it do to imperial entanglements, always missed that rifle, anyway just look at this beauty- a chopped down m14, with night sights, but a bit heavy (8.8 lbs) am I being overly optimistic expecting 1 moa outta the box? Every review I've seen on jootoob is positive. I paid 1349 shipped for this boom stick.

So is "over penetration" just some horseshit used to push more expensive hollowpoint ammo or is it something to seriously consider in your EDC?

I don't mind blowing some extra cash to get some hollowpoint but curious if it really is more effective then good old ball ammo.

Hey guys, I don't normally post on /k/, so sorry if I sound like a moron.

Anyway, I'm looking into getting a self-defense weapon since my neighborhood is looking slightly dicier every day and I don't really want to move out because I'm poor enough that I could only really move somewhere just as crappy anyway.

Thing is, I don't really want something lethal because if someone attacked me I'd really rather not kill him because
1. I'm a huge pussy and would regret it the rest of my life and...
2. I'm not up on self-defense laws in my nation/state/city/anything really and I'm more likely to not get thrown in jail for manslaughter or whatever if I didn't actually kill whoever was attacking me.

What I would like, however, is maybe a weapon good for breaking potential assailant's legs? That way they can't run away so they're still here when the cops come to arrest them. Is there a good weapon for non-lethal leg breaking that' easy to use? What are the best weapons for non-lethal self defense?

Thanks.

Hello, /k/.

This is my first time posting on this board, but I figured I might as well ask here.

I reside in an open carry state and one that isn't too accepting nor tolerant of transgender people.

My younger brother recently came out to the rest of us about their pursuit for gender transitioning. He isn't that worried oddly enough when I feel he should be. I am working on relocating somewhere, but in the meantime, I feel I may need something for protection. I can afford a firearm, but this will be the last thing I purchase as I must save up for the move.

What is the best firearm that I can conceal and pull out quickly in case some ass tries to start shit with me or my family? I am all about family so if someone fucks with one of my relatives then we have a problem.

Thank you again, /k/.

Beginner AR thread

I am a minimum wage slave. 8.50 an hour and all i can get for hours is a half shift because we're hiring so many people for the season atm.
Which means 30-40$ a day and my math suggests that i will have about 800$ extra spending cash after all my payments but i also really want to buy an AR.
I'm sick of being noguns and need to feel the satisfying kick against my shoulder again. i've tried to look and look and it seems like i can only find the Ruger 556 or the Smith and Wesson M&P sport 2.
Are there any other entry level ARs that /k/ might suggest?

Okay fellas, let's put you in a post-apocalyptic scenario. You're just starting out and you're scavenging for supplies, weapons, and gear.

You come across a sword, a crowbar, and a baseball bat.

Which do you take?
