Why do people bitch about the SCAR having a reciprocating charging handle?
Didn't SOCOM specifically request one because they make it easier to clear stoppages?

because they fear change, and because there's an extremely slight chance it could induce a malfunction

They bitch because they're too fucking stupid to use the weapon properly.
They try using a magwell grip and get their thumbs railed by the reciprocating handle.

It was specifically request that a forward assist of some kind be part of the design, the reciprocating charging handle was the response to that specification.
>Why do people bitch about the SCAR having a reciprocating charging handle?
I honestly don't see that much bitching about it, but from what I've seen the main issue seems to be that the handle is extra weight moving, which could cause rise when fired rapidly. It is also another component that is external and moving, and could potentially cause a snag.
I, personally, don't have a problem with the handle and don;t think reciprocating handles are a big issue, especially when you get them instead of the stupid placement of the AR charging handle, but some people feel different.
Remind me again why people stay here? So god help you if your shooting at the range and let your buddy shoot also.

They're not moving because they're a bunch of cucks.
And even if they do move, they're just going to try to shit up your state with their coastal liberal ways, gun owner or not.

So I was all set on buying a Springfield Champion Operator Lightweight because I really want another 1911 and enjoy fuddy fihve. But I'm almost thinking I should just get something with more capacity. I've already got a P226, P239, and a 1911.
I'm kind of torn between a VP9, USP Compact, a Sig M11, or just picking up a Scorpion Evo pistol.
Cannot make up my mind, pls halp /k/

Nice show off but I don't believe any of this bullshit anymore.
Not even MOLLE is standard in our army, Most shooting trainers we're shit before and after NSAK.
And first and foremost we don't attract the right people as soldiers.
Most of the german parachuters are pseudorussians.
Also the fleischlafette is pure shit.

If Americans are so fond of guns and the imperial system of measurement how come american police and military use 9mm sidearms instead of 0.354331 inch sidearms?

Does anyone have vast knowledge and can identify nazi badges from 1933-1945? I found two in the basement of my great-grandfather, but I think my country (Germany) is going to fuck me in the ass via IP adress, if I post a swastika anywhere.

"The Russia's giant aircraft carrier of Admiral Kuznetsov will in October carry Ka-52 helicopters to Syrian waters to participate in combat missions across the crisis-hit country," Borisov told reporters in Bishkek.
"The newly-manufactured helicopters of the Russian army have been built based on previous model of Ka-52-aligastor, but with more advanced navigation, trace and targeting equipment," he further added.
"The Russian army has a plan to replace Sukhoi-25 combat jets with Ka-52 choppers in case the new helicopters' successful missions in Syria," the commander announced.
http://en.farsnews.com/newstext.aspx?nn=13950414000697
What does /k/ think of assault helicopters? They already have Ka-52 in Syria so probably its the naval version Ka-52K with anti ship missiles blowing up ISIS ships.

When I'm in the Navy, I was the MP.
so I used a K-1A1. but I think it is not a good gun. Especially when shooting. therefore many Korean soldiers say 'K-1A1 is a 'Bullet Sprayer''

Hey /k/, /tg/ here. There's a thread where someone is wondering if a bolter can work underwater.
Could it actually operate?

Considering bolter rounds are rocket assisted, it would fire, but the round wouldn't travel very far because of water resistance.

non-political:
If anyone here is planning on attending the RNC convention, be aware that there is planned violence by self-described "anarchists" and "anti-police activists."
Weapons are not allowed inside the convention itself, but are allowed outside of it.
Lots of FBI agents will be there due to the extremely heightened security risk.
Stay safe.

hey /k/, I know absolutely nothing about pistol rounds. My question is, which is more powerful, a .45 ACP round or a .44 magnum round?

>>30508056
.44 Magnum, by a very large margin.
>>
>>30508056
22, its smaller sectional density lets it penetrate 20 times more than a 45 acp and 10 times more than a 44 magnum
>>
>>30508056
You can google 99% of rounds and wikipedia will give you basic stats on the round based on commercial loads and such.
