okay so could someone explain to me how the fuck the germans managed to make this thing weigh 57 fucking tons while only having 100 mm of frontal armor, like, even slavs could do fucking better.
Pre-war design. Its armor was good enough for when it first came into service.
>>30074034
because le german engineering is a retarded meme
Pershing had better armor while being much lighter. Germans just couldn't make a good tank.
>>30074034
They were stupid enough not to slope it, thats why

Blue Ruin has its very own /K/ommando. His role is small but important. Great movie.

From what I've read, the Tirpitz wasn't anything special, with bad armor and relatively weak guns, and both were blown up on their first time out by the britbongs. Why were the Bismarck Battleships so feared and why does everyone rave about them now?
>>30072936
Because they were a very serious threat to the RN Home Fleet if they had gotten an actual SAG together. It's actual armor wasn't bad at all, it was weak against plunging fire but was very well armored from the sides where it was expected to take the brunt of its fire.
Compared to heavy hitters seen in the Pacific theater, its AP shot was light, but it still outweighed everything the RN used at the time.
>>30072936
Mostly, it was fast. If the Tirpitz or Bismarck made it into the Atlantic the British fleet had nothing big enough to kill it but fast enough to catch it.
How did they stack up against KGV's anyway?

are we already sick of linking the forbes article? Should be part of the general info in the initial post imo
>>30071779
When is the next nugget fest in the southwest?
>>30071967
I'm not one to boast. And there's still a thread up just for that. >>30064230
>>30072008
Well, there's Arkadia Ranch in Northern Nevada in August and the next closest actual Nuggetfest will probably be Eastern Texas for Winter NuggetFest in February. I'll try to do one around New Mexico next summer. Maybe around June before it gets super hot.

What's /akg/'s policy on altering military surplus?
I just finished filing down the little leather strap buttons on my Romy type 1, but I feel kinda bad messing with what is essentially a piece of history. What are /akg/'s thoughts on the matter?
>>30071638
I dont think anyone cares. It's yours to do what you will.

That's great

But that's an actual thing, it does lower the decibels to hearing safe volume and there is video evidence to back this claim up. Look up water balloon suppressor on YouTube.

Gee willikers mithter! Next you'll tell us they have army assets on the borders with korea and russia!
>>30070646
China is just flexing it's muscles. They're not actually retarded enough to to firing off missiles, just like the US and Russia didn't start launching nukes once we had ballistic subs.
Anybody got any links or screencaps of this guy saying he didn't want full autos legal again because it would depreciate his collection?
Also what YouTube personality annoys you or just people from the funs industry in general?
>>30070457
I think a lot of the oper8er types are annoying on youtube. They seem so try-hard
I sorta like Iraqveteran88 but he can sure ramble sometimes, and not in an enjoyable way. Also he has just enough of a touch of mall ninja to be annoying
Only guys I watch are Demo ranch, nutnfancy, late boy scout for knives and lights, and a few other knife channels. That's about it. Don't really waste my time on guns that much, since it's mostly the same
>>30070457
Anyone that claims to be pro 2A but doesn't want full autos legalized, especially because "muh investment", is not pro 2A
So my father gave me his Hi-Power as a graduation gift.
The gun has never been shot in 30 years and the nearest range is 1 hour away from my home so i haven't shot it yet.
I do however have some 9mm fmj with it and i decided to dry fire and test the gun a little.
When i put the magazine in and rack the slide the first round goes in easily but if i do it again the rounds always jam and i have failures to extract.
My question is this a good way to know if a gun is reliable or not?
>>30069974
Most likely a worn out extractor spring (No 5 in pic).
Another thing it could be is a broken extractor look to see if the hook part is damaged (No 3 in pic)
>>30069974
Using 5.45x39 surplus out of a 14" AR, what distance should I zero my scope at? Googled and pretty much everyone said zero for 100 but I don't have a 100 yd range. I know when I was in the military we simply zeroed our rifles at 35 yds (IIRC) so we could get on target when we went to range, which is where we did the fine tuning, but that's it.
>>30070104
Im not sure about 545 but in a 556 ar the 50 yard zero is close to a 200 yard zero so anything in between is pretty close
