Field agent Tynesha, get off your phone and get back to harassing some gunshop over a mare's leg.
Why does the Sten have a horizontal magazine? And are there any advantages to a horizontal magazine?
Good for prone.
>>29429848
If I were to guess Probably a longer barrel, but not by much.
Because it was a cheaper version of the Lancaster, which had a horizontal magazine
>Why did the Lancaster have a horizontal magazine?
Because it was a copy of the German MP28/II, which had a horizontal magazine
>Why did the MP28/II have a horizontal magazine?
Because it was an update of the the MP18, which had a horizontal magazine
>Why did the MP18 have a horizontal magazine, rather than a "classical" downward vertical magazine?
In design, it was mandated that the weapon should be able to use Luger snail drums. It could be that these snail drums didn't feed the next round quick enough when working against gravity, but quick enough when feeding from the side
In use, such that it could be kept low to the ground without a downward magazine interfering. This was an important consideration given the lessons learned in World War 1
What if president trump nukes ISIS? Certainly ISIS can't respond in turn. Would anyone else step in to counter-nuke on ISIS's behalf? Even if Iran had nukes, they couldn't deliver them to the US. Russia my defend Syria, but what if we nuke Iraq?
The reason we don't use nukes is because a nuclear winter would destroy everything. But what if your enemy can't nuke you back? You could use like 10 and end any war.

>>29426738
Will this stop it from rusting or will it help the finish on it? I want to do a full on restoration on this rifle and make it look fresh from the tractor factory
>>29426701
electrolysis will blast loose rust off of it. you will need a car battery, cables and a big enough tank of water to fit the rifle in.

I was under the impression that nuclear winter was a myth. I know OPpenheimer has said th8s, but are any points in this video valid?
Minute Physics is actually really mediocre because like most YouTube Science teachers, they go into a lot of 'what' and leave out most of the 'how' or 'why.' Rather he gives only very cursory glimpses into otherwise very complicated systems. But this particular video he seems to be shilling hard as fuck for some anti-nuclear campaign, rather than try to inform people.
tl;dr
Minute Physics sucks and you shouldn't watch his videos.
>>29426421
same applies to minute physics:

His understanding of the topic is, as we could say, "minute".

Anyways, what we have here is a peice of copper pipe JB welded onto 1m of stainless steel schedule 80 .5" pipe to make a flash pan. The touchhole is 1/16", and that is a 2.5" bolt screwed into one end that I got threaded.
>>29425946
Specs on the pipe. Also, the internet says its bursting pressure is 26,250 PSI, which should be more than double 100 grain black powder + .50 calibre round ball, which is what I used.
How good is the RADAR stealth of modern warships? I was thinking of a scenario where a navy vessel was maneuvering close to a merchant vessel, which may or may not be able to detect it with RADAR.
Basically my questions are these:
>How well can the S-band and X-band slotted waveguide antennas typically mounted on merchant vessels detect stealth vessels?
>Has there ever been an incident related to this?
probably negligible
commercial ships mount radars?
>>29425591
Yes. They are very useful for navigating.
Radar signature info is held super close to the chest by the military. You won't get a good answer here. Dunno as to whether there have been incidents that have made the news.
I'm about to go to my aunts house who has a bunch of guns from her father (a huge gun collector) and I'm gonna buy some from her.
The two things I'm looking for that I know she has are
1. Elephant guns
2. Tons of all matching mauser rifles
But I know she has some 60 guns total.
I'll be posting pics all day

Is getting a lathe, mill, and FFL/SOT cheaper than a full auto sear?
Several things
1) no
2) not in the long run
3) what part on that do you think you'd run on a lathe?
>>29425318
Stop fucking leaving the name on phone I fucking hate you
>>29425318
i just figured that an SOT requires a working business, so i figured i'd make sears for law enforces and then keep some for myself for "Testing".

(Leo totally deserved that Oscar)
>>29424819
Yes. It's incredibly difficult but it has been done.
>>29424835
Definitley, he's one of my favorite actors. Honestly can't think of a bad film with him in. When I saw that bear cub I just knew shit was going down.
>>29424836
How? I thought bears were near unstoppable rape trains?
