Does anyone know of any guides on how to make it? Obviously it's going to be a lot worse than $2000 plates but surely you can rig something up to stop a 5.56.

And please no "Just strap a phonebook to your chest"

You are aware that decent 5.56 loads actually penetrate armor pretty damn well right?
>>
If you REALLY want cheap body armor just get an AR500 plate. Homemade armor is not worth it

cold rolled steel plates 3/8 inch thick.

Update #3.

The NPO paperwork is being filed this week or next in South Africa.

Incorporation in the U.S. being filed next week.

I've begun organizing the video I'd like to use for the gofundme/indiegogo fundraising campaign. I have hours and hours of it.

I'm giving some thought to buying a house in the eastern cape to act as a base of operation and a place for rangers to bunk in downtime/off days. Property in South Africa is really cheap compared to U.S. standards. For total disclosure, I'd buy this house with personal fund and rent it back to the NPO just below market rate.

My SAPS detective friend has been building a list of other wildlife crimes detectives and recently retired detectives who would be willing to work for our operation while it gets off the ground and gets moving.

My brother in law has procured two Nissan Patrol trucks. They need some work, which he is doing now. One will be 100% field use, the other will be decked out in logos and will serve more in marketing, sales, and admin capacity. I got a really good deal on the trucks due to the dollar being so strong.

I've found an FGASA instructor who is willing to come to us, in South Africa, and provide the field practical needed for our rangers to obtain the level one field guiding certification. Rangers would need to study on their own or take an online class before getting to South Africa.

I think that about sums it up for update #3. If you're interested in the previous thread/discussion, here you go:

Are push daggers as effective as people claim? Are they really that great of a hideaway weapon? Or is it all just a meme?
26 posts and 4 images submitted.

They do give you a significant advantage over an unarmed opponent and are great if you only have unarmed training (like boxing or whatever) since it uses the same techniques, but boosts the effectiveness

But if you have knife fighting experience and training, i do believe classic knives to be more versatile and better as a whole

Yes. Everything is a meme now.

Some of you have probably convinced a woman to have sex with you and may very well have children.

How are you planning on teaching your kids about firearms so they don't end up like some effete, hand wringing snowflake?

When theyre 10 or 11, take them out back with a gun and shoot at shit. Go over safety and all that, and lay down the rules in the house regarding guns.

I grew up in anti gun house but my girlfriends dad did a similar thing with her.

I can't find anything below 175, and that's on Armslist/Gunbroker. What would be considered an acceptable price for a mosin nowadays? LGS don't typically stock them for whatever reason, but I haven't recently visited any gun shows and seen their pricing.
Preferably non-mutilated, sporterized mosins are shit tier.

$250. Next year it'll likely be higher.

>>29439031
What happened with Mosin prices? I hear about people buying dozens for less then 100 a pop.
Did something with imports change that I didn't hear about, or is the Ukraine deal still fucking with supply?

Good or idea or no?

gun lights?

well they aren't very useful in the daytime outside but inside in the dark holy shit do they work
>>
>>29438247
the only people that hate on streamlight are surefire fans.
>>
>>29438533
But are they reasonably durable? I really don't mind spending the extra $100 for a surefire but if it isn't finnicky and is as durable as say a primary arms micro dot vs and aimpoint (surefire comparison), I might just get a streamlight.

Apology for poor knowledge

How does into ownership of a Commando? What are the expected costs associated with amphibious armored vehicles? Can you register it for the road if you disarm it?
16 posts and 2 images submitted.
>>
Try saying what country you live in first
>>
There aren't any laws in the us.

As long as it's plated and has lights it's road legal. But commandos a expensive as hell.

Start with some British stuff
A Saracen, Humber or ferret.
>>
>>29437855
I know things are supposedly road legal once they're plated, but in order to get plated they need a VIN and insurance.

They are cheap and seem reliable
Are they worth stocking up with these mags
What's your experience with these mags

The one I have seems ok, but lacks witness holes which sucks for a range mag since I rarely ever fully load them... They are like $5 cheaper than oem so not really worth it to me other than to try...

>>29437309
I thought about picking one up to try out when I was at the gun shop at lunch but decided against it.

>>29437309

As a backup weapon, failure may be the very reason you pull it. If the sidearm fails you too....you then must have attempted to skirt savings on a lifesaving device, and thus, are killed by it.

Can someone explain the importance of jet engines and why china seemingly is having such problems developing them for their new jets?
14 posts and 2 images submitted.
>>
Jet engines are nut just plug-and-play. They are sensitive to airflow in many ways, especially on supersonic jets. If not properly designed, jets can actually blow out if the incoming airflow is going too fast, or coming in at the wrong angle, or many other things. Since fighter jets go fast and fly at odd angles, you can see why this might be an engineering problem. The problem includes designing the ducts and intakes to control that airflow as well. The F-14 for example was notorious for having an extremely narrow flight envelope due to it's sub-standard engines (they were later upgraded though).
