DARPA has just put you in charge of drafting and developing a nuclear-missile defense system that:

>Must defeat MIRV-capable ICBMs in large salvos
>Must protect all 50 states (Puerto Rico optional)
>Is concealed enough to rule out possible infiltration or internal sabotage
>Must have a 100% success rate, anything less is unacceptable

Assume budget is not an object (we'll just add it to our dept to the chinks)

Its lighter and takes the same mags. New production SAWs dont. The SAWs aren't gone either, they're just taking a backseat until we get into a real hot insurgency again.

Name your least favorite kind of gun owner. I'll start. Boomer fudds. They think being old means they know everything. In reality, they have virtually no technical knowledge about guns, but whatever you do, don't try to correct them. They show a pig-headed indifference to what other people say, especially young people. You can give them the most well thought out argument in the world, and they'll act as if they can't hear it. It's like talking to a deaf person without a cochlear implant. Eventually, you'll get tired of repeating yourself over and over again and realize that you're throwing your pearls at swine.

Quite often, the fudd will tell anecdotes which, due to historical, scientific, and technical reasons, don't add up. You think the fudd is lying to you, but he shows such conviction that he appears to have convinced even himself of his lies.

2 Indian T-90 tanks were damaged during the Army Games Tank Biathlon in Russia. This shows the bad reliability of Russian made tanks and thus should not be sold to any decent army anywhere in the world. A good replacement should be the Chinese Type-96 tank which won the said Tank Biathlon.

The Indians were complaining that it was not the crew's fault that the tanks were not up to standards that the Indian Army has set. And that Russia should compensate them for selling them very problematic tanks.

Do you approve of India's statements which are true? What tank should India buy next to supplement their Arjuns?

>India complaining about Mig 29K despite being biggest customer

>Now this

Who do we take seriously here? Do we take India's word or do we give the Russians the benefit of the doubt and assumed that this is all the consequence of the infamous neglect epidemic in the Indian armed forces?
>>
It seems every single acquisition India makes they later complain about. The consistent factor is that they are too stupid, lazy cheap or a combination of all 3 to maintain them properly.

Just about everyone else in the Biathlon is using T72s and T90s, and yet they are able to stay in the game.

Don't waste your money on alarm system, you'll get false alarms and a pd response in the middle of the night anytime there's a thunder storm or strong wind... just get an adt sign for your lawn, works just as well.

Best thing you can get is home owners insurance and a camera system. 1 camera for each side of the house. If your shit gets robbed you'll have hard evidence for your claim.
>>
have flood lights and surveillance cameras setup around your premises/

have a handgun that you keep on your person all the time and on nightstand at night

if you have long guns make sure you have a secure gun safe that's bolted to the ground

have a camera set up on said safe

pretty much all you need, if someone is fucking around on your property you have footage. if someone breaks into your home and tries fucking with your safe you have footage and possible ID

Regardless of reason, some asshole is plowing over pedestrians in his car. Now he's seen you, and you only have moments before he shifts the car into drive, turns the wheel, and proceeds to grind you into human fruit salad between his car frame and a wall.

Is there any benefit to faster or heavier pistol bullets when it comes to punching through windshields or window glass? Is this .40s&w, .357 Sig, or 10mm's time to shine? Also, any information on where you should aim due to deflection?

So my mom recently got a new computer, and wanted to get rid of her old one (a Dell Studio 540 that ran--*vomits*--Windows Vista). So my dad and I took it up to our lake home that's about an hour and a half's drive from our main home. We then proceeded to empty two whole 30-round magazines of .223 Remington (AKA 5.56x45mm NATO) FMJ rounds from my dad's Sig Sauer M400 rifle, with Dad and I taking turns blasting away.

Once we were done, I took some photos of the damage, first with the PC located where we'd placed it for shooting, then on a table on the back patio for closer examination, then in the garage back home to examine the innards.

The attached pic shows where the rounds entered.
