Let's talk about things that we do, that we think other /k/ommandos might or might not do with their firearms.

Here's mine:
>religiously disassemble my revolvers and oil them I'm talking at least three times a week.
>go to the restroom with my AR and an empty Mag.
>pull firearm out and leave it next to me while I play vidya on my PC
>rack the bolt carrier on my sks
>keep all my shitty guns quarantined from my good guns.

The decocker lever on my Sig keeps getting caught on my holster. Can I cut a notch out or will the leather fray? Other options?

>Marine Corps Lieutenant General Paul K. Van Riper
>Millennium Challenge 2002 war game
>USA plays as Blues, Riper takes Reds (everything points to Iran)
>USA has all the bells and whistles of cutting edge technology
>Riper fucks them up majorly
>Reds adopted an asymmetric strategy, in particular, using old methods to evade Blue's sophisticated electronic surveillance network. Van Riper used motorcycle messengers to transmit orders to front-line troops and World-War-II-style light signals to launch airplanes without radio communications.
>Red received an ultimatum from Blue, essentially a surrender document, demanding a response within 24 hours. Thus warned of Blue's approach, Red used a fleet of small boats to determine the position of Blue's fleet by the second day of the exercise. In a preemptive strike, Red launched a massive salvo of cruise missiles that overwhelmed the Blue forces' electronic sensors and destroyed sixteen warships. This included one aircraft carrier, ten cruisers and five of six amphibious ships. An equivalent success in a real conflict would have resulted in the deaths of over 20,000 service personnel. Soon after the cruise missile offensive, another significant portion of Blue's navy was "sunk" by an armada of small Red boats, which carried out both conventional and suicide attacks that capitalized on Blue's inability to detect them as well as expected.
>the exercise was stopped, the Blue demanded Reds to use radar, reveal their positions and whatnot
>250 million $ worth of exercises and military manuevers all turned into farce, because Blues thought this was "unfair".

Our man here was ridiculed.

What red dot should I put on this guy?

I was thinking aim point t-2 or pro.

Does anyone like trijicon sights?

I wish I could get an eotech, but I haven't heard whether they have redesigned their holographic sights after the lawsuit...

couple of years ago I was in a live-firing exercise with a mortar platoon, we would direct fire for 81mm mortars in a range that has been in use for decades, at one point the one of the smokes fired by a mortar went over the backstop, but as the area behind it was closed off except for a maintenance road that we were monitoring we kept firing, the round generated some smoke before dying out. An hour or so later we noticed that there was smoke rising from behind the back stop, and it wasn't the kind of smoke that the smoke rounds we had been firing generated.

FO -team lead: "Doesn't that smoke look like something is actually burning?"

Me: "Yeah it does."

Instructor: "Time to call the fire truck to put it out"

Me: "...Say, how many duds fired by various mortar teams do you figure have landed there over the years?"

The fire truck came and put out the small bush fire without setting off any dud fragmentation grenades, but in the meantime we were all a bit nervous.

Post odd weapons.

This here is the Schwarzlose Model 1908, one of the only blow-forward pistols ever manufactured. It was used by various people in the German Empire - police and the like - but didn't have much of a storied career before it became apparent there were much better ways of doing things.

>ate too many advil one time and got involuntarily committed

I didn't really realize it until now but I'm completely fucked, I'm no longer a free citizen the way I see it

I'll never be able to legally buy a gun or maybe even join the park service now (always been my end goal) because I was young and tried to "kill myself" over some dumb cunt

I'm not even depressed any more and I don't take medications/see a shrink
