Okay /k/, say a bunch of armed gunmen are dug in a house. They've boarded up the windows and if the police were to breach in, have no clue what they're walking into but they do have a secure perimeter around the house.
I'm genuinely curious how the police would gather information in regards to location of the gunmen, hostage, booby traps etc. It's not like in movies or games where small drones are sent in is it?

You wait them out
Give in to their demands for transportation and take them in transition or en route
Or if you're Russian you just send a RPO through the window
If they don't have hostages just let them sit.
what does /k/ think of tactical/utility kilts?
>>31160479
Great for when you want to be easy breezy beautiful. I'm skeptical about any real ”tactical” use for them though.

What kind of faggot would actually have to ask this question
So I want a pistol for CCW. I also want at least 15 rounds. Which one is the best?
glock 19 maybe
>>31160389
Ruger LCP .380
Use Lehigh defense ammo
Has a 15 round magazine, you keep that in your other pocket. If you run out with the standard mag, pop the 15 rounder in there.

Could you, in theory, design a cartige with the primer somewhere other than the back of the bullet?
Like, its pretty obvious why the primer is in the back, but I was thinking maybe with something like caseless amunition like the on the Kraut Space Magic gun uses you could put it somewhere else and have it work flwlesly. Could it happen? What sort of engineering problems would it face?
>>31160085
Shut the fuck up, you goddamn queer.
pinfire cartridges.
they suck compared to centerfire or even rimfire.

>>31160114
I see. Could you tell me WHY exactly they suck? What problems do they have? Would said problem carry over if you went with a propelant other than gunpowder?
which of the black triangles has less drag?
>>31160084
bottom one
The bottom one fucking duh. Ever seen the hose trucks that have the flaps on the end of their containers they improve gas milage significantly cuz less drag
Which pistol is the best?

what's wrong with 'these videos' ?
So i have the full sized 9mm version of this handgun down on layaway right now used for 700. (480 dollars to go)
Anything i should know about these guns in particular? I know the USP is a great pistol in general and mags are expensive as fuck but that's to be expected with H&K. This handgun i have on layaway was made sometime between 2003-2004 i think, everything looks good inside, a bit dusty and needs some TLC but nothing a good cleaning can't do.
When i get this gun i can at least say
>M-muh H&K elitism and cool kid status
Anyone else own the USP? Discuss /k/.
>>31159679
>used USP for $700
You should know you got fucked anon.

Lots of stuff from a 40/45 USP owner here.
The plastic HK mags are actually pretty cheap compared to the steel ones in the .45s and compacts. They are about 40 bucks.That Muslim guy is going to tell you to get steel ones for it, but they don't exist for the USP9/40, at least not in HK inventory.
You can get a TLR-3 that is already adapted to the gun like pic related. Its a decent light for not too much, and if you use it properly you can reach the switch.
The triggers are plenty shootable, but if you do anything too them I would recommend just getting a some flitz polish and taking a rag to the contact surfaces, or just shoot it a lot.
I have Trijicon HDs on mine, and I wish I got standard mepro sights. I will pretty much always have a light when I shoot these guns, and I am not a fan of the more open sights.
Lastly the USP 45 is only just a little longer in length, 1mm taller in slide height, and the same width as the 9/40. This means it will fit in the same holsters if its a light bearing holster, and even some leather holsters in the non-light bearing holsters. I have a KT Mech that fits bothe my USP .40 and .45.
So guys, I've volunteered for a college student exchange programme to rwanda for about half a year and from what I've seen, they're totally devastated from the genocide and civil war.
What's the situation nowadays? Every now and then I could see news about piracy, schoolgirl kidnapping, boko haram, ethnic/religious/political clashes and stuff, so should I back out? I really want to bring a handgun from the states but all these bullshit foreign laws regarding firearms and CC-ing one isn't really worth my time.

You're our future. Seriously, you're attending an institution of higher education and you're this dumb to ask and then answer your own question?
Is this a blog post? Also no shit you should back out, why would you want to go to a massive shithole? To help? You won't, they're goners.

Few replies and recommendations in another book thread a few days ago.
Definitely recommend pic related to anyone and everyone.
Follows a young German sniper on the Eastern Front in the dying days of the war. Based on the memoirs and interviews with the real sniper who experienced it first hand.
I knew hardly anything about the eastern front and it still gripped me and sparked an interest in learning more. Some pretty brutal stuff in it which probably entices a few of you.

I don't read very many /k/ related books, but I read pic related recently.
It's pretty interesting, and he talks about his combat experiences instead of his personal life. It's pretty short too, which is good if you're like me and are a fucking slow reader.
The Right Kind of War by John McCormick 1992
A fiction story about the Marine Raiders of WWII. Written by a vet and using many different first hand accounts, this story goes from Guadalcanal to Okinawa, taking real life events and historical happenings and folding them into the story of the 4th Raider Battalion.
This is a book that my father got for me whan i was a young man fascinated with the grit and glory of war. I was not disappointed. The characters are vibrant, the battles are harrowing, and the skulduggery and jackassery of life as a Leatherneck was everything an adolescent boy could want to read. But the book takes a turn, and as the Marines land on Iwo Jima, the full cost of War comes into sharp and painful focus. So many chill motherfuckers, doe eyed farmboys, guido ass city kids, and brilliant and enterprising young officers slaughtered, maimed, and broken by a herculean war machine hell bent on dominating an implacable enemy. This story, along with All Quiet on the Western Front, woke me up to the fact that war is not a game. There is no reset button or save points. The enemy is not some faceless, pixelated gook. Our granddads fought because they had to; they wanted to stay home, bang ladies, and get fat and old with good jobs and healthy kids. We will soon be called to fight again, and i hope we can have the clarity of purpose to do what must be done.
DEFKON RATING: 3 for being fiction, 2 for being a feeltrip.
