Why do gun owners panic at the slightest hint of gun control laws? I mean, this time, all Obama did was do some EO's regarding FFL licenses and background checks. I haven't been able to find non-match .22lr in stores since December, even online it's expensive, and if I can somehow find it for $.04 a round, the cost of shipping negates the price.

Drones are a hot topic this holiday. I have a computer whiz friend who knows a lot about automation. I am an engineering student and we had a funny conversation about attaching a 10/22 to a drone and go do some plinking with it. All jokes aside, what is stopping others from doing this now? I only ask this because I watched a news report about the rise in drone sales and the alphabet soup buearu of canada for transportation has said they generalized the rules surrounding drones and they are now thinking of asking people to register their drones

Yes.
Be choosy with your ammo, look at some gel tests to IWBA standards out of similar length barrels.

.380 would be as small as I would go
And honestly that's only because the self defense loads they put out for it now, some self-defense .380 is actually pretty respectable

The last thread’s turret got stuck
Geronimo Stilton Edition
> What's this thread about?
As usual this thread is for the discussion and pics of tracked and wheeled AFVs of all kinds from MBTs to supertanks to self propelled AA guns. Please keep it civil and cite sources for statistics.
The Maus remains one of the most curious oddities to emerge out of the various tank prototypes that Nazi Germany experimented with as the Second World War drew on. Envisioned by Hitler to be impervious to any conventional arms that could be deployed against it, it instead became an unused white elephant. Its origins lie in a request in June 1942 by Hitler to design a super heavy tank mounting a 12.8 cm gun with the maximum achievable amount of protection possible forwarded to the automotive company Porsche of Stuttgart. The earliest projected trial date was posted for May 1943, but frequent difficulties emerged out of the design process of what was then called the Porsche 205 project. Rather than an air-cooled motor, an improvised aircraft engine was installed, Porsche’s longitudinal torsion bar suspension system had to be discarded due to an abject lack of space to fit the ever growing number of components required to accommodate the staggering weight of the vehicle – which continued to grow. With a staggering 220 mm of frontal turret armour, and a large KwK 44 L/55 128 mm gun with the V2 also sporting a 75 mm coax, the weight was an inconceivable 188 tonnes! An ambitious 150 were requested, but the order was outright cancelled in October 1943. A V1 prototype was finally tested in a completed state in 1944, and a V2 was also started later the same year, but this was postponed after an accident with the engine, which would not be replaced until mid-1945. Both variants of the “Maus”, were later demolished at Kummesdorf with interior charges.

OP: As always, feedback, suggestions wanted and appreciated.
As they say, go big or go home, so I decided to have a look at the biggest. It really is mind-boggling how anyone expected the enormous weight of the Maus to be able to cross bridges – there clearly was some kind of intent, seeing as how the tank’s ability to navigate bridges was tested during trials. Guderian, it seems, was not too happy with the tank, doubting its ability to function properly in close combat, much like the Elefant. He writes in Panzer Leader, that it was initially intended to mount a 150 mm and the weight to be 175 tonnes. What materialised, as we can see today, was a little different. The story behind the surviving prototype of the Maus, now resting at Kubinka in Russia, is the hybridisation of the relatively intact hull of the V1 and the turret of the V2 into one vehicle, for the purposes of testing by the Soviets.
Interestingly, Krupp was working on a super heavy tank called the “Lion”, with two patterns, a lighter 76 tonne and a heavier 90 tonne. A 105 mm L/70 would be its armament. Not too much is known about it, but the Maus effectively killed the Lion project, although later a shortened 80 tonne version was suggested with the 88 mm L/71 – a little like the Tiger II.
Also, I was wondering if anyone had any requests for what other heavy AFV to do next.

More tank news, as per the new format.
If you have more queries regarding a news story, just point it out, and I’ll further elaborate and provide links.
Paraguay is reportedly keeping its venerable M4 Sherman and M3A1 Stuart tanks, both 75 years old as trainers for its military. The country’s Stuarts were sourced in 1970 from Brazil as donations, while the Shermans were delivered from Argentina in 1980.
In Russia, Rosoboronexport, a subsidiary of the state owned enterprise Rostec, has announced plans to market its Uran-9 multipurpose UGV for export in 2016. The drone is capable of providing remote reconnaissance, combined arms fire support as well having counter-terrorism applications, its armament including Ataka ATGMs, a 30 mm 2A72 autocannon and a 7.62 mm coaxial machinegun.
According to unnamed sources in Ukraine, it is currently in the process of developing a new 155 mm self-propelled tracked howitzer. With close cooperation from Polish companies and accordance with NATO standards, the SPG is based off the chassis of the Oplot-M Main Battle Tank.
In other news, Ukrainian officials also countered previous claims that Thailand was considering the purchase of T-90S MBTs from Russia due to an impasse in the scheduled delivery of T-84 Oplot-M MBTs from KMDB. The willingness and ability of the firm to deliver on its contract was reiterated, to be executed “without delay”.
And that’s all for now.
