Is there any practical reason to hunt with a crossbow(instead of, you know, a gun) or are they just being used by fedora-tipping hipster faggots? Assuming that you're living in America and not some random 3rd world shithole
>>29104786
Reusable ammo and less sound.
>>29104786
Reusing ammo, quiet, not as regulated, less likely to be banned, I mean maybe you could consider easier spotting of a downed target an advantage (Bright orange arrow feathers,) but for the most part it's shits and giggles.
Being literally disabled. Otherwise you should use a compound bow, like a fucking man.
Rage thread?
>>29104688
everything is a AK-47 for the media
>>29104688
Id on't get it. If it's murrkan AKs, they're gimped down to semi-auro and not assault rifles. Is that it?
>>29104791
Those aren't AKs
Sup /k/
Any current or ex US military officers on here?
I'm in school for engineering but am considering joining the military as an officer.
If you could give me some pros and cons about the job, what it's like, how's the pay etc.
>>29103519
Pay is pretty okay. You can look it up yourself.
Officers do not get to pick their branch specialty, least not in the Army. The Army likes it's officers to be generalists / jack-of-all-trades.
Most of your time will be spent compiling briefs on powerpoint, and doing paperwork. This is mostly true for all branches.
>>29103519
Why would you go through all the hard work of getting an engineering degree, and waste it in the military? Officer pay is ok, engineering pay is amazing. If you want to actually help the military go work for Lockheed and troubleshoot the F 35 or something.
>>29103519
What type of engineering. What are your goals in life
How are the Royal Marines viewed from within the British armed forces?
Very highly
>>29103499
Very well respected, the only people that slag them off are the Paras but it is more rivalry banter than anything.

Why shouldn't I buy a PS90?
>>29102657
Pointless without full retard switch.
>>29102665
If you have a gen 1 trigger pack, you could get in some major trouble if a spring rattled loose...
Sup /k/,
What is that uniform, and where does it come from? It's widely used in the Azov reservist / paramilitary regiment of Ukraine, almost everyone wears it. The regiment is equipped by some wealthy oligarch, but I don't know where he bought this stuff. Looks pretty cool imo.
Which is rather strange, since there is a variety of different uniforms even in the regular army where you'll see a wide variety of camo, from flecktarn, to old & new ukrainian stuff.
pic related ; some officer serving in Azov.
>>29102310
MTP, british uniform
>>29102310
>>29102501 is correct about the pattern, it's British Multi-Terrain Pattern.
The jacket is not the standard blouse. Rather, it is a modern smock which is based on the old Denison Smock from World War Two.

Thanks a ton.
I'd go /out/ with this anyday.
Don't want to push it, but do you have any ideas of where I could by this for cheap, in Europe?
How do you find my gun /k/?
It shoots bullets
>>29101654
Duh
>>29101645
There's something about it....something.....classic? Yes, that's it. Something classic that I can't put my finger on.
>Pic related
Does /k/ think that the bans on Fully auto Firearms will be lifted? Do you think there will ever be a time where citizens can obtain full autos without going through the tedious process?
I have been watching videos of this guy who has just about every AK variant all with a giggle switch, and I have been dying in jealousy
>When can I own pic related?
Because I am seriously thinking about obtaining shit like this when I am older, sanctioned or not.

full retard is a great way to waste a lot of money really fast.
I think SBR's and suppressors actually have a pretty good chance in the next couple of years if the elections go right. There has been a ton of movement at the State level.
Full-auto has a chance IMO, but I'm not holding my breath.
Was it Autism?
Probably a combination of a legitimately shitty CO, an oddball cluster of personality traits, and the right set of high pressure situations to bring out the worst in everyone involved.
>>29100197
No, it was a sense of idealism combined with regret.
>>29100211
>>29100214
He as diagnosed with social anxiety and partial schizoid personality. Sounded like autism or what we would call autism anyway to me tbhfam
is the golden gun actually viable? is it truly a one hit kill, regardless of armor?
>>29099746
no strangely enough it's actually an infeasible vidya game idea
>>29099746
The point of the golden gun was to be able to sneak through customs and shit. Assembled on site and shot placement was the goal. Also he technically only had 1 shot.
I have the anniversary edition of this gun but can't shoot it worth a damn.
Are .44 mag cowboy revolvers always impossible to shoot well, or can some of K manage?
Recently bought funs have all been smaller caliber semi autos since I can't master this one.
>>29099351
>can't into a single action only revolver
What even
>>29099351
What is the problem? Are you having trouble shooting accurately?
>>29099351
They have sights on them dude. I have a Super Blackhawk and have taken a deer out of a stand with it at 30 yards. I know that's not far for .44mag but that's where the fucker was.
>they're all finicky and unreliable

No thanks.
If you'd like to quote a specific point he made, I'll read it.
But I'm not watching that shit.

Lol, only 3 posts in and 1911 fags are already on suicide watch.
How are these things as weapons? Assume you are at least partially weapons trained.

>Mfw I got smacked in a "Green Zone" with one of these fuckers at Ship's Reaction Force training
My entire thigh was a bruise.
Just ordered one as a means of self defense against homeless junkies while going on urban ex trips.

Are you an idiot? If you take a weapon with you during urbex it's instantly armed B&E which is a felony you dumb fuck

What is /k/'s opinion on 73 easting?
The American government had spent the 50 years before the engagement planning for a war where they'd be totally outgunned, outnumbered, desperately fighting for their lives until REFORGER could bring them reinforcements.
Then we got into a war with an enemy that used the same doctrine and equipment, but extremely incompetently, and in smaller numbers than us.
>>29095209
one of the best examples of american armor being able to beat the shit out of everything else.
one hell of a trial by fire for the abrams as well.
>>29095239
I don't think Soviet doctrine involved running away at the first sight of the enemy
