Is it possible for a civilian to be more proficient with a firearm in combat situations than a trained member of the military?

Yes.

Im not a solider, but Im going to assume that actually firing your weapon is a small part of the job.

how dumb are you-the thread
Would attaching a Sig Arm Brace to a Bradley Port Firing Weapon and using the brace as intended turn the PFW into a viable close quarters weapon?
Handheld BRRRT for clearing rooms.

What if that weapon was a P90?

>>27940122
Bradley PFW. Not a "PDW" as you liking read.
Which is pretty specific, and also not a P90.
>>
>>27940143
So which firearm do you want to attach a Sig brace too?

Hey /k/
Just found out that my country still uses the old M60(but they are being fast replaced by the leo2)
Is the M60 still a capable/useful MBT by today standarts?

I might just have old info on the ammunition it uses, but I'm pretty sure the APFSDS used by the M60 Patton had difficulty penetrating the frontal armor of a T-64.
>>
>>27940030
>Is it still useful?
That depends entirely upon how much it's been upgraded, and what it's expected to go up against.

did some soldiers actually prefer inferior ww2 weapons during vietnam wars? if so, was it because of the nostalgia?

Who says they are "inferior"?
>>
>>27939747
>Nostalgia
Are you talking out of your ass? Most soldiers in Vietnam were not WW2 vets.
They probably wanted SMG's from experience with close range engagements in the jungle.

Nigger, do they LOOK like they're in their 40's?

Aint dat sum shit.
How does /K/ manage ammo? Do you buy as you shoot or do you buy a few boxed here and there and have a long practice session? And how do you afford it as well.

I love freedom munitions for that reason. I try to keep at least a couple hundred rounds for now for just in case.

Here in CA in gun control land (SF Peninsula) the both Big 5 in Redwood City and the Dick's in South SF are selling 550 round boxes for $25 until Christmas. I don't think they'll sell out as right now they'll let you buy a box every three days now (down from one/week).
>>
>>27939491
huh I'm in central Texas and I've seen .22lr twice in the past year in a half. I bought a brand new 10/22 3 years ago that I've shot twice. It's saddening. On gunbot I can never find anything less than .10 cents a round.
>>
Not the time of year for manufacturing .22lr. Manufacturers are running the fraction of the employees they once did. Outside military contracts there's popular hunting loads people stock up on this time of year.
And stop trying to buy at Wal-Mart. Those motherfuckers dont know shit about ordering. Many of the sporting goods chain stores are compelled not to buy ammo From corporate for political reasons.

Whenever I handle guns my hands get so sweaty. It is really embarrassing when I go to a gun store and have to apologize I covered their guns in my sweat. Does anyone else here on /k/ have this problem?
Last weekend I was at an Academy sporting goods store in Central Florida and I asked to look at their Hi-Point carbine.
>completely soaked the gun
>my disgusting body sweat all over it's rubber
>stirring macaroni and cheese sound as I grasp it's body
I'm pretty sure it isn't because I'm getting turned on... Please help /k/

Assuming these things really can run at 90 km/h like they supposedly can in the movies, would they have their niche in real military?

Between RPGs, Stingers, LAWs, and Javelins an AT-ST is a walking pos.
>>
That's true but no one in the SW Universe has any type of man-portable shaped warhead launcher so the AT-ST would wreck a lot of shit if there is no way to penetrate the armor.

no
if ewoks can take them out, you know they're shit

Why is China so hesitant about displaying their military power levels?
They've had multiple Chinese nationals executed by ISIS, they've had terrorist attacks at home, yet they commit no personnel or anything to the multiple fronts of the wars on terrorism, past and present.
Is it a chess game strategy of not revealing strengths and weaknesses unless absolutely necessary or is it fear of them not performing well in combat after going so long without a war (1979 was sino-Vietnam conflict)?
They obviously have impressive manpower but what do you armchair generals judge their battle readiness/effectiveness to be? Why are they do passive?

They just spend 126 billion annually and maintain the largest standing army on earth for defensive purposes or just a deterrent?
Okay, well......They've been attacked by terrorists.
They're still silent.

Okay,
So how does a former Legionnaire get radicalized to begin with?,
And why does a frog have better gear than I even have access to?
Please discuss.
