So assuming that enough advancements were made to power generation and barrels and other random stuff would railguns make chemically propelled firearms obsolete? Would laser guns be a thing if they were made portable enough with a lot of power? Are gyrojet weapons just inherently bad or could they be made worthwhile with the technology of today?
>>34704711
There will be mixed tactics like when blackpowder firearms were first introduced.
>>34704711
Next big step is electrothermal chemical propelled shells I think.
Maybe far off in the future handheld railguns will be the standard for infantry if rails can be made much more sturdy and power packs can hold enough power.
I wonder about over-penetration on unarmored targets and overheating.
>>34704711
Chemical propellants are just more energy dense. This is inherent, they are simply the more fundamental physics process. The next step up would have to be nuclear, fusion or antimatter. Chemical power is going to be around for a very long time. Electrical power only make sense for big things where chemical propellants are just too unwieldy.

If you were to hypothetically saw off a straight stock double barrel shotgun where would you cut it?
I thought that you could cut it around where the pink line is, is this where you should cut it on a straight stock shotgun?
>>34703983
Ideally you want to make sure you're not sawing through the screw holding the stock onto the frame. Leaving a little bit of clearance is good for aesthetics, so you won't just have a screw head sticking out of the handle.

What are /k/'s thoughts on the future use of unmanned/autonomous robots in law enforcement? Will we start to see I, Robot and Psycho Pass sort of shit used soon?
>>34703861
You can probably shoot at them and not feel too bad afterwards.
We're literally entering cyberpunk dystopia territory. Enjoy our current freedom while it lasts, because pretty soon we will all be implanted with micro chips by the mega corporations that we are forced by necessity to work for and live under. The streets will be patrolled by robotic nightmares designed to punish brutally anybody who steps out of line with the interests of our elite technocrat masters.
>>34705465
Close, but you missed the mark on two counts.
>...pretty soon we will all be implanted with micro chips by the mega corporations that we are forced by necessity to work for and live under.
The chips aren't necessary. A vast majority of people are already voluntarily logging into botnets every single day. Between social media, PRISM, bank/state info, and the ever-growing network of system-linked cameras and geostationary spy satellites, it's pretty hard to go somewhere and NOT have someone know where you are. The only question is whether you're clean/good/sneaky/rich enough for them to ignore what you're doing. People get away with shit all the time because it doesn't disrupt the Bigger Picture enough to warrant a whole task force dedicated to stopping them, or they were otherwise smart enough to do shit on the down-low.
>The streets will be patrolled by robotic nightmares designed to punish brutally anybody who steps out of line with the interests of our elite technocrat masters.
Once again, 1984 falls to the wayside as good-but-dated fiction. Why have cybernetic kill squads patrol the streets when you could simply roll the CCTV footage, identify your "suspect", have the secret police pick him up at 3AM for some random offense, and have him hauled off to some black site for "questioning"? Run a 2-minute segment on the local news channel, maybe a sidebar bit in the paper, and he's gone. No one cares. Just another criminal being fed to the prison-industrial complex. This sort of shit happens all the time in Russia with anti-Putin journalists and politicians dying in "traffic accidents" with cut brake lines. I'd imagine it's the same with anyone who crosses the Bush or Clinton dynasties/oil oligarchs/Big Bankers/alphabet agencies.

Pretty sure it's just saying your garbage tier homemade bow is just going to wound animals and generally be cruel and ineffective.

This. My friend makes bows like this. They're fun and fairly accurate, but they're still not at all up to par with something made properly.

yeah bro you are totally gonna take them out without them firing a single shot and if they do you are not gonna get disoriented at all

Hear or ear?
>>34703576
I couldn't decide between ear and hearing
Thanks for your 2 cents Tier 0 Operator.

It has for about 105 years, yes.

Two years ago, the U.S. military had an embarrassment on its hands: A stockpile of aging explosives blew up at a former Army ammunition plant in Minden, Louisiana, sending a cloud of debris 7,000 feet into the sky.
I'm interested in a new handgun holster for sport.
Should ideally be OWB, preferably not thigh
Should have some form of retention that would not need me to look down to engage when reholstering
Here's the tough one: It shouldn't scratch up the gun.
Anything?
have the Star Wars programs reached final form? Does THAAD render mutually assured destruction obsolete? Is it habbening?
>>34703095
no, we will definitely be fucked up one way or another if we nuke somebody
chinks are just MAD they can't into force projection

THAAD doesn't prevent against multiple launches, so no. This is China being butthurt as usual.

At what period of rifle design did it make less sense to mass volley fire and have every man pick his own target and fire as accurately as he can?
The Civil War? WW1?
Russo-Japanese War IIRC. Also first heavy uses of trench networks.
>>34702962
Trenches were used extensively during the Seige of Petersburg. Hell, breastworks and rifle pits were built in most civil war battles.
