What kinda tanks are these?
Panzer 3 or panzer 4 with the short barrel 75mm gun.
Panzer III Ausf. H
You can tell it's a Panzer III because they have 6 bogey wheels and Ausf. H because of the shorty 50mm cannon.
At the end, the tank it slams into is a PzKpfw IV Ausf. D.
Looking closer now its deffnitly the Panzer 4 A with the short barrel 75.
How important is it in the modern era for soldiers/security personnel to be buff/physically-strong? I don't mean that in a trivial sense - we all know that physiology has an impact on observers, and a jacked military will be feared more on a primal level.
>>31692593
Depends on what job.
Green Beret and expect to cross one side of a shithole country to another in fortnight? You're going to need to be mostly lean muscle.
Security guard who's acting as a bouncer? Doesn't hurt to be the incredible bulk.
For security its ultra important, you cant mag dump when your bouncing a club.
For front soliders, being able to carry more shit is nice but runninng around and shooting stuff is more important than benching double your weight and what not.

The tendency for modern SOF is to turn away from body building physiques and focus more on "functional fitness". That said a lot of dudes focus less on their cardio and more on getting big even though the command keeps telling them to focus on their cardio.
Realistically speaking the past ten years or so have seen soldiers focus less on long movements and more on short engagements. So more of a focus on power, however long range patrolling seems to be coming back in vogue.
Granted I've got a pretty skewed view of things.
In the market for a tomahawk because why the fuck not.
Any suggestions or is the OG Vietnam issue a good start?
I bought a kickass tomahawk. It would fuck somebody up for sure. It has been sitting in a drawer for the past three years.
tomahawks are awesome but are you open to hatchets? what are you planning to do with your tomahawk?
>have been playing FPS games for almost 2 decades already
>still not sure what the numbers and lines in the sniper rifle scopes mean
Is it all just for an aesthetic look or is there actually a trick to using them for sniping?
>>31691990
Nope just for looks.
This is what graphics arts students do when they get drafted or join the army to keep from starving

>>31691990
Range finding, hold over/hold under, and adjusting for target horizontal movement by looking at the rate of travel.
Literally just google or YouTube about how to use scopes. Jesus can you at least do the basic legwork and come back with detailed questions.
My sister in law's husband passed away a couple years ago and left her behind many MANY guns. One such is an MG-15 and my son has his heart set out on it. It works and she's going to take 500 for it, should i buy it? Pic related, it's him holding it.

About to leave for Parris Island, wouldn't mind some last minute advice, I posted in last thread shortly before they started a new one.

Not the guy who said it but hes still right. Its only gonna be barerly tougher. Its not like youre in BUD/s or something. Its still just basic. Youll be fine.
>>31691109
I feel like the trip to MEPS before I leave and receiving will be the most stressful.
So I'm looking to get my first raifu and I have been thinking about a Yugoslavian SKS. Would that be a good choice or should I go a different route? Also if SKS, what is a decent price range I should look out for.
Just go buy an AR.
Those Yugo SKS rifles that Classic Firearms has are great. You can shoot cheap Russian steel case ammo in them. Buy one now.
>>31690469
Do you live in Canada? Get it for sure.
Do you live in the USA? Consider an AK instead or an AR.
Would /k/ be alright with women in the military if they meet the same standards as men?
No. The military is a bunch of 18-35 year old horndogs desperate for poon. Making women available to them as coworkers does nothing good.
>>31689297
Well yeah but in make believe world there wouldn't be a need for militarizes.
>>31689297
Sure.
>When
November 11-13
>Where
Scriver Road Shooting Range, Near Russellville, MO
>What to bring
Guns ammo, enough food and supplies for 3 days of camping. A couple of light jackets, sweaters, windbreakers are a good idea as the yearly average is around mid-50s during the day in November.
I'm planning to cook dinner Friday and Saturday night, though I still encourage everyone to bring enough food and water for themselves.
More info here www.nuggetfest.com
And carpools can be found here www.nuggetfest.com/forum just make an account and go to the /car/ page, feel free to post if you can offer a ride or need one.
Also, I'd appreciate if you those that know they're coming can RSVP for updates and so I can plan for how much food to cook for dinner.

Sadly, unless durr season is cancelled, I won't be making it.
Scrivner is a good range though.
>Nuggetfest 3 days after election
I hope everyone already has all the ammo they want
It's that time of year boys and girls. The leaves are turning, the durrs are humping and the Fudds are out in full force.
Tell your favorite Fudd stories here! May the holy pistol grip forever ward off their asshattery.

My parents are fudds.
It's painful to see someone so near the cusp of understanding that AR-15s and other "military style" rifles being legal is okay, but still ingest so much MSNBC indoctrination to think that banning them will save lives.
I don't even know what angle to approach this from. I've exhausted really just about every angle I can.

You should have called his bluff.
How's the damage? You survive the hurricane? I got fucked but indirectly fucked. I'll post about it if you guys give a shit but I know you don't so fuck you. I had power and drank the whole time.
>>31687960
I did not survive the hurricane, unfortunately. I drowned during one of the floods and was pinned under. They still haven't found my body yet.
>>31687984
That's terrible anon, I hope you make a recovery from the drowning
>>31687960
The hurricane was awful. It flooded only the back room of my house and my entire safe full of guns got washed away with the storm surge.
How do you deal with mobs?
When are you able to exercise deadly force against a mob?
Have you ever opened fire on a mob?
Or you forced to use less-than-lethal means?
I watched various instances of middle eastern mobs of men attacking women and want to know if any of them had a chance of defending themselves. Various women have died in such events.
>>31685323
Look up disparity of force.
Just don't go to Africa or the Middle East.
>>31685654
Or Cologne.
Just bought myself my first shotgun, Weatherby PA-08 upland. What do you guys prefer for trap, skeet, hunting, HD, etc.?
>>31683301
Loctite the bead in, fyi. They really like to walk out on the Weatherby shotguns for some reason. You only need to use blue, just to keep it from turning.
If it is already really tight, leave it alone but keep an eye on it.
>>31683559
Thanks for the advice. It was never shot before, but I'll have to check after the ten day waiting period (California).

Sup /k/. Your 4chan virtual soccer tournament manager here with a couple big updates. I've had board ads up all this week and intended to go through the weekend, but Hiro just nuked self-service ads for some reason. Therefore this is my only direct line to you all.
First big thing and most important is the roster poll, we're updating the team and all the songs, so I'd really appreciate your votes on deciding which we should use. We have about 100 player options that need to be narrowed down to 23 and dozens of songs to sort through. The Autumn Cup is the next tournament /k/ is playing which starts at the end of the month, so we need to get that straight.
The second big thing is pic related. I'm organizing a competition to decide the next team scarf. Like the Cup for all of 4chan, it will be a virtual soccer tournament, but instead of boards across 4chan it will just be /k/ themed teams. Each team will have a scarf design and the winner is the one we'll make a reality. So, if you really want a Rhodesian or Canadian or Outer Heaven team, or a /thg/, /meg/, /arg/ team, or classic /k/ copypasta team, or whatever, feel free to suggest one or a dozen. The Winter War will probably be in December, so we have plenty of time to get things square in terms of logos, uniforms, and sponsor stuff.
You can find both polls, some ideas on scarf designs, and a little more in-depth info here:
goo DOT gl/xLyL8p
Any questions, feel free to ask. You can also sign up for team newsletter on the first poll. Apologies again for not-weapons, but I wanted to get this out to as many /k/ users as I could.
>>31672835
Get the fuck out of here faggot
>>31672853
Just doing my due diligence. It's everybody's team, not just mine. I do my best to keep this kind of stuff to ads and the newsletter, but if Hiro takes ads away then I have to do this.
>>31672853
What? Don't like fun?
It's probably people like you that 4chan is dying anyway.
