That sure is a nice ground attack aircraft you have, it would be a shame if something were to... happen to it.

Why didn't the Chinese just use AK-47s in Korea? They would have easily steamrolled the UN forces
Because they couldn't afford that shit.
>>27931400
>Small arms win wars
>>27931400
They did steamroll un forces. They just didn't want to force us into using the nukes by steamrolling all the way to the south, so they stalemated the war.
want your opinions on the Sig P938 SAS, any experiences with the gun or how you choose to carry it or just any information in general
>>27931085
>or just any information in general
do internet search for
sig p938 revuews
lots of info
Honestly it's a good gun. Super easy to hide anywhere on you, in pockets, whatever. Easy to shoot too.
Im looking to grab one during a black Friday sale hopefully
What is the best military attack helicopter and why ?
Seems like the tiger is overpriced.
Whatever the latest Apache variant is
the British longbow probably had an edge for a while, but the latest US.Army ones are better
>>27931032
It really comes down to engine and weapons design
and Europe laggs behind the US and Russia in both, really i cant think of any rreasons to take an Tiger over an Apache
As far as best, Mi-28, Ka-50 or Apache
>>27931032
Stealth Apache
What are your thoughts on this weapon, or even the 6.5 creedmore cartridge. I'm new to bolt rifles and hear this gun brought up constantly. Was curious as to what /k/ thought.
I would like one... I just don't really have a thousand dollars to spare at the moment... Plus reloading crap and glass and accessories...
>>27931013
Solid rifle for long range

Hey guys, lets discuss the pros and cons of the Eurofighter.
Also (& mainly), this is a reminder that Eurofighter Typhoon (pc game) is for free at Indiegala... get to the homepage, scroll down a bit and you will find it, just follow the steps to get it for free.

remember that even though you are a cynic, you are not always right. Im juts a regular /k/ browser, that wants to share the love, just the same way someone at some point gave away insurgency for free. Im part of the /k/ommando group in steam and just wanted to give something back.
Tl;dr: Fuck yourselves/yourself.
French anon here, I need your advice /k/;
SKS or MAS 49?
Why should I buy an SKS over a MAS 49?
>>27930844
Get the MAS 49.
>Why should I buy an SKS over a MAS 49?
Cheaper ammo is what comes to mind. But if the price is not an issue then get the MAS.
>>27930844
What is your financial siuation?
Have you compared prices of either caliber from where you are from?
How is 5.56 considered grossly inadequate and inhumane for hunting deer, and yet is simultaneously heralded as a good intermediate cartridge designed for warfare (i.e. killing humans)?
I mean after all humans are a larger "big game" animal than a deer is, so what's up with this contradictory standard?
Can't have it both ways baka.
>>27930775
>humans are larger than deer
What?
it isn't, and it isn't.
bullet design is king.
The deer aren't shooting back (usually).
so my country croatia is getting 16 of these...are they any good?
>>27930507
>kiowa pilots
Why? Why are they a thing? What is it that transforms an ordinary human being in to a lunatic with a death wish as soon as they step on board one of those things?
Congrats, you've received one of the best helicopters out there. It will turn all your pilots into madmen.
Anyone got that video of the Kiowa chasing down the Haji on the bike and the Copilot leaning out to fire their M4 at them?
>>27930543
>copilot
More than a few people that I consider to be reliable sources have given me first-hand accounts of them witnessing both the pilot and co-pilot blasting shit with their rifles at the same time.
Croatia, you don't know what horrendous powers you're about to unleash on your poor fighting men.
Do you really think people can get PTSD from piloting a drone?
>>27930471
Some people can get extremely upset if they know they've taken lives.
There's many stories of ww2 bomber crewmen weeping over the lives they knew they'd taken.
I guess IDK how it would feel as I'm out of the mil and won't ever be in that job.
Do you really think you can get PTSD?

I got PTSD from banging ur mum m8

Horee shit is that Firefox? What plane is this? Looks sexy as fug.
Does anyone know of a good technique or at least some tips on estimating distance/range (in general, not just on a shooting range) using eyes only? I'm a eurofag btw so only meter/kilometer units please.
Best way is to guess distances to objects you can check the distance to over and over. If you have a laser range finder, guess a distance and check it. This is the most efficient and effective way to hone your eyeballing range finding skill.
I'm decent at estimating distances, but only because I do it a lot at work.
I'd say to just practice a lot.

So Representative Elliot Engel (D-New York) is trying to add Flamethrowers to section 922(o) which will ban the transfer and posession of them.
It's called H.R. 4009 or the 'Flamethrowers? Really?' Act.

So they're going to be treated like post-1986 machine guns then? What about ones that were lawfully owned before the date of the subsections enactment if it were to pass?

What does /k/ think of the SOCOM 16?
I'm looking into getting one for general use against any possible terror threat or civil unrest. The .308 is pretty much undisputed as a powerful caliber so lets talk rifles to fire it first.
As stated before, I like the SOCOM 16. It's a true and tested design in a nice sleek package. It's like the modern musket. However, it might not be quite on par with other battle rifles. Taking into account that it will only be fired as a semi-auto, is there a better rifle out there that comes just off the shelf?
Now about ammo. I don't have to abide by the Geneva Convention so ball ammo is going to be for practice shooting. I've seen the Winchester PDX1 rounds do pretty well and not overpenetrate. The Lehigh Defense Controlled Chaos rounds seem to leave massive wound cavities as well. They also carry a maximum expansion bullet in .308 that can be loaded but I believe it's optimied for the 300 Blackout. Again, the fact that if a .308 hits you, you probably won't fight much longer is undisputed. Why not go for overkill then? One shot and another one bites the dust. Any other ammunition recomendations?
As far as use of the actual rifle, think in an urban environment with long streets and plenty of cover in the form of cars and alleys. Possibly having to fight out of and into buildings. Is the SOCOM suited for that?

No point when basically any other BR will do it better.
