How significant was hand-to-hand combat in WW1?
>>29905619
Huge. Are you slow or something?
I'd imagine pretty significant, as many of the hand-to-hand styles taught in WWII were learned from WWI.
>>29905619
extremely significant

Im sure if you tell this Troy fellow how you feel, he may let you suck his dick.
/k/ also likes striker fired which I know because i'm the unpopular hammer-fired fan.
>Striker fired poly pistols are boring
>I feel that anything 32 ACP and above is at least adequate for defense (not necessarily optimal though)
>Most US firearms companies are shells of their former selves, and oftentimes produce shit compared to years past (although some of them have always made shit to begin with)
>Capacity in a SD pistol usually isn't that big of a deal unless your in LE or plan on getting into a fight
>TNG isn't as fun as TOS
>>29901447
I like Troy, too. Everything I've ever gotten from them works just fine.
What does /k/ think of this situation? Did this man (repo maybe) do the right thing or would you have done something different?
Did he work for the ATF?
No this guys a piece of shit

Sparky has severe autism.
Believe it or not, he posted here a few times even. Notably he got BTFO when he tried to explain why the world needs to go back to casemated tank destroyers.
>>29899728
>Notably he got BTFO when he tried to explain why the world needs to go back to casemated tank destroyers.
What arguments did he brought?
(I personally think that casemated assault guns and tank destroyers MAY come back in case of conventional war between two industrialised countries, for economic reasons, but building them during peacetime is plain retarded)
He also said that battleships are the future of naval warfare.
>>29899717
why are M113s shit?
they're just steel boxes on tracks that haul dudes inside them like every other apc.
So our country just had a change of administration. We elected a meme president, a literally who vice president, and a bunch of random senators.
But that's not important. Our country has really shit defences that even the Vatican has a better defence force. We're facing against China here, and if the peace talks fail (and I'm sure they will), we're basically fucked.
What does /k/ suggest we purchase to solve this problem?
A one-way ticket for somewhere else, maybe?
>>29898971
I assume your the Philippines. You just need to take a nap or whatever and let papa America come and save you if big mean China invades. Just like the last two times we saved you.
I heard, and quite frankly I'm wondering their policies. Like, really. The whole thing sounds quite funny.

Why would we acknowledge the inferior Armalite rifle?

It's pretty cool looking compared to the AR-15. Though that's completely subjective.

Since when did warfare get so pussified?
Battle of Towton: Man at arms, knights, and peasants trudged through mud and hacked at each other to pieces. Some had their eyes popped out of their sockets, some had their skulls crushed, and most were either suffering from severe blood loss, internal hemorrhaging, and concussions.
Battle of Verdun: Men literally had their lungs burnt by poison gas, suffered with the foulest diseases of the 20th century, mowed down by Maxims, trench foot, I can go on...
Battle of Stalingrad: House to house fighting. Extremely brutal combat. Modern warfare at its rawest form. Soviets spraying krauts with their PPsh by the thousands, Germans popping slavs with their Mausers. Fucking sniping men with an anti tank rifle. How hardcore is that?
>Present: lolololol send in the drones, predator missles, and bomb them to dust. its too hot god and this MRE tastes like shit... I now have PTSD someone help me.
When will I ever see the glory days desu?
Pic Related; This guy apparently suffered a blow from a war hammer. His school broke into three different pieces but he still kept on fighting.
>>29897810
>When will I ever see the glory days desu?
Probably never again.
Yeah, getting bombed into bits and not being able to do anything about it is somehow less hardcore than getting your skull smashed.
>>29897832
It is though. Nothing is personal anymore. All this modern technology made warfare into a sport for the technologically capable nations.
Could the US marines capture the city of Hong Kong? Assume that ALL usmc resources are devoted to capturing this 1 city. Could they do it?
Define "capture"
>>29897698
>Assume that ALL usmc resources are devoted to capturing this 1 city
lol of course. With ALL usmc resources they could do it in Day 1. Day 2 would be inventory and paperwork day. Day 3, Lance Corporals are already breaking shit and peeing on everything, everywhere, and Supply is getting pissed and reporting them. Day 5, a new MARADMIN is released, addressing new standards for urinating AND defecating while in uniform.
I think you know very little about military tactics and that's why you made this thread, so I'm not saging this time.
>>29897698
In a vaccum I would say yes as the military garrison and police force would most likely crumble in a few weeks with the force of the full marine corp and the people there seem to like the west as they had a taste of it untill the hand back in '92.
However the real world does not work like that and this battle isn't in its own little world, the city would quickly be assault by a massive Chinese land/naval force will the whole world going to hell in a hand basket.

Yeah, there's a limit to that. What you're saying is beyond that limit and it's something that should never have been done in the first place. The work now is to roll that executive order bullshit back.
