Why would they buy super hornets instead of more F-35C's/B's?
I'm thinking of getting a SCAR
Does anyone have any opinions or reviews of them?

Hey /k/!
I am a relatively new member to the board and am interested in purchasing a Mosin Nagant sometime soon. Can anyone help me out with where I should get a pre wwii model for a fair or very good price, where I should get ammo, and what I should look for before purchasing.
Pic not related. I'm ok.

Mosins are too long to shoot yourself with anyways. But seriously, you're late to the cheap nugget party by about 5 years.
>>
>>29958464
To be completely honest, Mosins are barely worth it anymore, but if you're set on getting one I recommend either a 91/30 or an M39. The M39's a regarded as the highest quality Mosin style rifles of all time.
I used classicfirearms.com for both my M91/30 and M39.

>>29958481
I know, it hurts. As an addition to that actually, does anyone know of any other types of solid, accurate, affordable rifles?

im interested in joining a group in the middle east dedicated to fighting ISIS, im aware most of them have other enemies and i would fight more than isis, but heres the real question. Would they let me fight? i feel as if these groups are recruiting westerners strictly as propaganda and that they do little fighting, so i just want to know what my best choice would be to fight in the ME

ive read this from actual ypg volunteers: previous mil training is preferred. if youre a civilian, they find a job for you but it'l likely be in a rear support role

>>29957314
Dude, they aren't just taking people willy-nilly. To actually be put to any kind of real use within their ranks, you're gonna have to have either military experience, (which you already said you don't), or medical training.

Could someone please help me understand the position of RTO?
I understand the importance of keeping in touch with command, but how exactly is manning the radio a complex enough task to warrant someone specializing in it rather than it just being included in general training?
Or why aren't squad-commanders handling it since they're the ones that have to communicate with command anyway?
Are an RTO's responsibilities so focus-consuming that they don't get drawn into the fight as much as a regular rifleman?
Will RTOs be rendered obsolete by more thorough integration of communication gear into the infantryman's gear?
Apologies if I come across as ignorant. In truth I'm just a curious history buff who doesn't know as much about the military as he probably should. Thank you in advance for any information /k/.

Their job is to carry the radio because it's annoying and gets in the way. Easier for the leader to focus on his own job.
>Are an RTO's responsibilities so focus-consuming that they don't get drawn into the fight as much as a regular rifleman?
Yes, slightly as they're either communicating or staying by the SL / PL as he communicates.
>Will RTOs be rendered obsolete by more thorough integration of communication gear into the infantryman's gear?
Not until you can squeeze down that amplifier, radio and battery into a small enough space.
Inna FDF they tend to come with a toughbook as well, depending on the level of command and unit.

>but how exactly is manning the radio a complex enough task to warrant someone specializing in it rather than it just being included in general training?
Fancy switches and settings that you can learn and remember with 1 hour of training and maybe 2 hours of usage. Give a grunt a radio and he'll probably fail to make it work, or even do basic troubleshooting with it.

>Their job is to carry the radio because it's annoying and gets in the way. Easier for the leader to focus on his own job.
So it's mostly an issue of how cumbersome they are and they're relatively easy to use?
>Yes, slightly as they're either communicating or staying by the SL / PL as he communicates.
So there's not really a practice of just using the RT as a wireless conduit and patching command into the SL/PL's headset? Or is that impractical due to concerns of jamming or the like?
Also, do SL/PL s update command pretty constantly in firefights, or is the RT only being used some of the time, thus freeing the RTO to act as a rifleman?
Thanks Anon!

Hey guys forgive me if there is another thread more accurate and or established first and foremost.
Ok so i found these going through old stuff my parents owned. Practice is a lot of fun. Id recommend to anyone into weights with a disdain of cardio.
I was wondering how i could make them better. Maybe oil them? Or wrap with a grip tape? Anything even general usage discussion would be cool as youtube is mostly filled with non combat techniques and a lot to sift through.
