So was the Tiger actually a good tank or not? Could it stand up to the Sherman in battle?

Troll? I'll bite.

No, 1 on 1 Tiger was better than a Sherman, this does not make it a good tank, it just means 1 on 1 a Tiger beats a Sherman. Historically it was never 1 on 1 though, it was 1 on 4 or 8 or more, and while a Sherman could be fully fixed, reset, and recrewed in 1 afternoon, Tigers were hard to fix, expensive to fix, and hard to recover due to size. Tiger is better tactically, Shermans are better strategically.

They were good, though maintenance-intensive. That, combined with late-war shortages of just about everything made them unfeasible as the war went on.

Also, they were almost always outnumbered in any engagement, and the German army developed a somewhat poor doctrine for using them in the field.
>>
>>31097641

So basically, while the Tiger had some positive characteristics, they weren't enough to justify its downsides, and overall it just sucked.

Would a totenkopf tattoo disqualify me from becoming a police officer? I'm not a skinhead or anything, I got it in the Army before I went to Iraq. It wasn't until after I got back till I realized what it was, I thought it was just a nice looking skull.

Forehead.
It's under a tattoo of a banner that reads "no soup for you." - but that's not offensive, tho, so they shouldn't care.

Pretty excited /k/.
I finally moved from Jew York into Freedomsylvania. Got my established residency and am going to pick up my first handgun in a couple days.

What kind of things should I expect for upkeep of my handgun, what lube to use (grease vs oil), what things I need to buy for my handgun.

If it helps any I am picking up a 92FS.

Also any PA bros in Tioga county know of any good ranges near Wellsboro?

>92FS
good choice.
modern pistols are pretty impervious to things like rust if you keep them at least moderately cared for.
lots of good lubes/cleaners out there.
Ballistol, break free, Rem Oil, 3in1 oil,, hoppes #9

there an infographic out there somewhere that allegedly shows the diifferences of the performance and rust prohibiting abilities of various lubes. but i dont know where it came from or if its even remotely legit
>>
>>31097548
basically i can go for a year or more without cleaning/lubing my P226 if its just sitting in tjhe closet and it always looks as good as new

I have heard of people using lithium grease or high viscosity motor oil. Is that in anyway acceptable on a firearm?

Wat?

Id use a .45ACP carbine/submachinegun if I could get my hands on one.

Im a civilian, if I have to shoot somebody I need them dead. I dont have a fireteam behind me if I am forced to engage and I may not get a chance to get more than 1 shot on target. For that reason I use .308 and 12g in my home defense selections, Im not messing with pistols in a high stress situation in my home when I can have long arms set up for instinctive point and shoot gunfighting, bulk and concealability isnt an issue since I am defending a barricade position in my bedroom in the event of a home invasion waiting for law enforcement or using a .308 battle rifle as a patrol/overwatch rifle in my neighbourhood in a WROL situation. (Upper middleclass White coastal enclave surrounded by ocean on 3 sides then a dindu neighbourhood to get back to central city).

Smgs and any pistol caliber carbine.

A patrol seems to be organized with three men, each with a different weapon.

Mace + Shield, Shotgun and a non-lethal crescent fork on a pole to keep people at stand-off range.

India loses every border conflict they have had with the Chinks.

If they got into a shooting war with Pakistan, that didn't go nuclear. They only have about 10 days of ammo on hand.

They don't have a standardized service rifle or caliber. So expect logistical fuckery to hamper them even more.

Hey /K/ what's the best 45-70 for large bears? I can't decide if penetration is better or if fragmentation is. I'm not sure not tough bearskin is and if the fragments will not hit any vital organs. But I also don't know if some of those extreme penetrator bullets will just pass through and piss it off.

>>31096906
Fragmentation is always shitty for hunting. You want penetration and expansion.

Hornady FTX or hardcast lead.
>>
Get the biggest softpoints with the most powder that you can. If it doesn't feel like the bear mauled your shoulder you need to go hotter.
>>
>>31096906
>fragmentation

No. Hardcast is a go to for a lot of people in burr country

Find a company that doesn't use Boltaron for cheap holster shells.

they are cheap. they fall apart. they will send you another one when it does.

I think their wait times are tolerable now so it might be worth it to get one, especially for a sometimes carry gun that isn't worth spending lots on a holster

OP here.
What about a crossbreed?
