Why the hell is Swedish army so downtrodden? Are you totally relying Finland for defence?
I mean your "artillery" for example is formed by 24 Archer SPG:s and Mortars. What a joke.
Throwing rocks would probably be more efficient than that, no way would that be enough in a serious military conflict. That's what you get when you let leftist and feminists take care of your government, foreign policy and defense.
Get a grip Sweden!
>>28604168
Voting SD, or Sweden Democrats to power would probably be the best thing you could do to remedy the situation imo.

what do you guys at /k/ think about the swedish main battle tank strv122 (otherwise known as the leopard 2a5)
Well... I might say that it is a tank?
>>28603596
The leo is a good tank but i know shit about the sweidish extras...
>>28603669
they are basically modified with newer equipment such as radios and targeting and more suited for the swedish terrain
what are k approved knife retailers? where do you guys get the best bargains on knifes online?
is this a legit site:
http://www.smkw.com/
>>28603174
Blade HQ and Knife Center have some of the best selection.
Cutlery Shoppe has the best prices I've seen though.
There's ton of legit places online, more than I can remember to list. Find a model you like then shop around for the best deal. Never bought from SMKW, but you can probably find something about them if you do a quick Google search of BladeForums.
>>28603206
thanks im liking this blade HQ site
>>28603174

I just bought it, holy shit.
what have I done that was supposed to me my glove money.
Go fuck yourself anon.
Why are fully automatic and selective fire weapons banned in the U.S.?
Commies.
Because feelings.
Because Clyde Barrow had his fun and then ruined it for everyone else
Could USA have defeated Germany if USSR was not involved?
Would USA be willing to invade occupied Europe if USSR was not already steaming toward Berlin?
With Germany not occupied in the East, where could USA invade?
Would stratetic bombing even be viable in such case? (lossess due to LW not being tier in the East)
Could USA endure the casualties and protracted war it would face without Russian involvement?
>>28602961
Yes, Germany had no navy to speak of, and outside of the fevered dreams of madmen no serious long range heavy bombing capability. They would have probably still landed in France while pushing up through Italy. Germany would have held out longer, perhaps, but American and British war tech caught up with German tech fast.
>>28602961
>Could USA have defeated Germany if USSR was not involved?
Probably. They had much better strategic planning and they would have held the initiative in the Atlantic, unless the UK outright surrendered and emulated Vichy France.
If the UK got steamrolled in some hypothetical, I think it's unlikely they would have gone to the effort, and especially not before beating Japan. I think it's more likely that Germany and America would have carved out their empires on opposite sides of the world and we'd have lived in a US vs. Nazi Germany cold war.
>>28602961
No. In fact neither the US or USSR would have been able to take Germany without the ALL the other players involved working together.
Even with the ENTIRE world against them, at almost any point in the war victory could have gone to the Germans.
The US cutting supplies off from Africs made it possible for USSR to wear down the Nazis. The bloody battles against the USSR stole Russian troops from the eastern front and the battle of Britian erroded German air support for the rest of the war.
The Allies were VERY CLOSE to giving up at several points in the war.
Has /k/ ever had this happen to them?
>today at noguns friend's house
>his other noguns friends are there when I get there
>friend knows I own guns and he doesn't say anything, but I know he's anti-gun from some comments he's made in the past
>30 minutes in
>Sitting around his living room chilling and talking about shit
>All of a sudden I hear "Hey you know anon here has a whole pile of guns in his house! We could take over the state capital ha ha"
>A few laughs at his joke but then the room goes silent
>Everyone casts their eyes away from me
>Gtfo of there half an hour later
Jesus that was garbage. Why the fuck do people do shit like that?
Not a story but my best friend and his family are British. Long story short, he was anti as fuck and I converted him. He loves sigs, and bought a P229R years ago when he lived with his folks. When he decided to tell them about it and show them how it was safe, they spent the next few weeks saying shit like, "don't piss Mike off, he'll start shooting!"
Goddamn britcucks.
>>28602772
It's because your friends are faggots, anon
>>28602772
>...So do you guys wana do it? I can take you out shooting next week in preparation.
>Shit, that sounds fun.

GUN! GUN! GUN! SHOOT FIRST LET THE CORONER SORT THEM OUT
What are /k/-based things that just appeals to your sense of aesthetics? Doesn't really matter if its practical or not.
For me, I really enjoy solid colored uniforms and equipment. Multicam and OCP uniforms look sexy as fuck, but olive-drab or dark-brown with contrasting equipment looks fucking great.
Ranger green does things to my boner.
we talking gear or weapons or both?
because this L96 couldn't look more badass
>>28602286
Yes. Gorkas are absolutely God teir, good ones are almost completely wind proof, and repel water for alot longer, combined with modern Ratnik gear like a 6b43 ballistic vest or the upgraded 6b45, or the rare 6b46 Ratnik BZN plate carrier, apparently a prototype, digital flora with khaki and brown gorka contrasts perfect for almost every environment, and even works in the winter, using Ratnik winter layering system with inclement weather clothing and extreme cold weather clothing is far ahead of America in terms of inclement weather gear, amazing gear I highly recommend you snatch up as much Ratnik or Tehinkom gear you can, remember they absolutely do not sell to civilians, Tehinkom is contracted exclusively by the FSB, VDV, and mainly alpha group
First thing I got was yesterday and I got myself an CZ evo scorpion
>>28600525
Second thing I got was an LH9 MKII

First AR maybe last AR

Always wanted to fingerfuck and shoot one of those, nice. Bought a PTR 91FR with a paddle from Atlantic a week ago. Have no idea when I'm going to get a chance to shoot it as it is -20 here in WI and don't want to waste my time with an indoor range. Looking for an optic for this beast now, probably going to get a Vortex Viper PST 1-4x24. Debating selling my MK12 and putting the 2.5-10x PST from it on it depending on the range report.
Government comes by door to door to take your guns. Are you honestly going to start a fire fight? Do you think these guys care? Just more media ammo to drone the next "rebel" cleanly.

that's all you man? lotta guns. how long did it take you to acquire?
Shoot the Ruger American at range today.
They had a demo where you can shoot it 5 times for free. Ruger provided them the gun for free to do this.
Compared to other striker fired guns.
Stankard factory sights are decent.
Trigger is good.
Gun is light, doesn't soak up recoil as well as say a gen4 glock.
All controls are ambi.
I'd say it's about as good as a Glock or Smith and Wesson m&p, just with some trade offs. The trigger was better and with a tiny better recoil spring it might be even better. Oh, retail on it was like $480.
Thought you should know.
>>28598078
Sorry about the phone grammar.

Did anyone else shoot a Ruger American?
