So I'm building a Remington 870, for a "tactical" look. I've already decided magpul for end and stock. But I need a good shell holder and rail combo. I know a lot of people like, medstar?, I think. But I don't know what is good and bad. As well as a mag extention It holds 4, I want to make the mag as flush to the muzzle as possibly but not past.

Pick related, probably not going to do orange though

Why doesn't the US invest in diesel submarines? They are much cheaper than nuclear submarines and quieter as well. And while they are slower and shorter ranged, diesel subs can still stay underwater more months without needing to surface. Are the benefits of nuclear power really good enough to justify the outrageous cost that comes with it?

because the US is not a poor 3rd world country having to use outdated ww2 era tech for national defense
>>
>>31152118

Because they don't have enough range to fit US needs.

Think about the places the US needs to have their submarines.

> SCS
> Sea of Japan
> East China Sea
> Kamchatka
> Barents sea

All of these places are swarming with hostiles, so the SS can't surface at all once they reach the AO. 10 days isn't enough time.

The other thing is that AIP boats are very slow underwater. SSN can easily hit over 30 knots in a sprint, SSK have trouble hitting 20.

SSK's are fantastic defensive platforms, the USN doesn't do defensive.

They are already issued knives, why not just add a hole in one of the sides of the crossguard so you can make a pointy spear? It is also a psychological lesson to the soldiers, they have to be ready to stick the enemy like pigs if it comes down to it and destroy them with a strip of metal.

I'm 33, between jobs and have an invalid mother to help take care of(brother has the money covered but more is never a bad thing). Saw an ad for the sheriff's department, checked out the website, and found out the pay is actually decent(apparently my state is among the top ten when it comes to LEO salaries)and I meet all the qualifications. The sidestepping shitty gun laws is really more of a side benefit that I only mentioned to keep it /k/.

Nice. I've had my eye on the Beretta for a while. It's the one gun I've wanted since I saw it in every action movie 30 years ago. Gonna go put 300 rounds through it on Friday. I feel you about the funds. I can't afford it either but I couldn't pass up 12% off. It'll work itself out.

When do operators use night-vision scopes vs night-vision goggles?

I'd assume an operator on the move would use night-vision goggles whereas some kind of sniper/recon/observation team would use night-vision scopes on their rifles, right?

Do the latter still have conventional NODs with them so they can... you know... walk around and stuff without needing to carry their rifle with them to keep from bumping into shit?

It's mostly decided by what is available.
It is also easier to make complex viewing devices into scopes than goggles.
For example:
Russians mostly use scopes due to the lack of development after the fall of the USSR.
