My personal preference would be the rolling block.

Many different models out there with varying histories and chamberings.

>>27883260
Why not Martini-Enfield for ammo availability .303 british is on the expensive side but you can use modern factory hunting rounds.

>>27883365
Because I want a big-bore blackpowder rifle. I already have 2 lee-enfields.

ITS here leaving this month.

How often are you in a sub and for how long is the duration of the trip? When you port, how long do you port for?

I have virtually no will to do anything due to undiagnosed depression/anhedonia.
Would 2 years or so in the army contribute to me unfucking myself? Has anyone experienced a similar change in themselves during/after the army?

sorry If I've made some kind of mistake

>>27881627
It should probably help, did in my case. Boosted my self-worth a ton.

As long as you're not actually mentally nutters, and don't show depression, they probably won't care/notice at recruiting.

Finnish SFs use the HK69, one of the oldest standalone 40mm GL systems.

I still see man-portable grenade launchers to have a role on battlefield; they can be utilized as poorman's mortars, destroy weaker fortifications and lighter vehicles, and cause fear in the enemy forces.
All the special ammos (smoke and so on) can provide some tactical advantage as well.

sometimes I wish they would bring back rifle grenades but I'm not sure if the 5.56 round can reliably launch them long distance compared to .30-06 and 7.62x51.

>>27847470
It's whatever you prefer you fucking faggot.

Think for yourself.

>>27847487
I know that, I just want to see what different people prefer

I've only ever used hip

>>27847470
If I wasn't living in the subtropics I'd consider a shoulder holster for concealment.

For OC the only one I don't care for is drop-leg because they inevitably become loose or otherwise get in the way while running.

Trawl on used guns.
Or yknow. Get a SMLE for cheaper, and get a better rifle too!

Yes.

No.

Shiggy Diggy Doo friendo, i sure hope you don't believe this.

>>27846818
Rifles and shotguns?
Still over 110db, as in can cause some instant damage.

it'd be a loud, spiky bang. Like a very loud stapler being hit nearby.

Just look up some Youtube comparisons.

>>27846818
>If someone were to fire a suppressed 5.56 supersonic from a 16" barrel, 10 feet away from you in an open environment, how loud would it be?
About 135dB at1m, depending on the can and conditions.
So at ~3m, about 125dB.
Still rather loud, but hearing safe for a hundred rounds or so.

Navy is pretty cool

Leaving for OSUT in Janurary, have an airborne option on my contract. What else besides RASP is there to look into after jump school?

Join the Army

>>27846525
there arn't many security jobs and they are usually word of mouth
a lot of guys in our industry are cowboys

when considering joining the army, remember you arn't actually joining "the army", rather you are joining a part of the army

recruiters will give you the impression that you only have a few options in order to fill areas that are lacking manpower

if you join infantry, you wont gain much in the way of skills, which long term is a really big deal because after you leave he army you will be fairly unemployable and might be stuck in low paid work

I would seriously look into police work before thinking about the millitary, you get to live a normal life, stay in a normal community

>>27847579
As loyal to the infantry as I am, this anon is correct. While you don't gain many skills in the infantry to use in the civilian world making a career out of the infantry is not an awful idea.

>>27846346
Looks like a revolver.

Hereś a bigger picture is that helps.

Worth mentioning that I have never heard of this CPT, but I don't want to let an opportunity like this slip by

Hi, another shitbag E4 here.

My friend did this in the AF reserves, he's at the air force academy. It's pretty common if you're smart and get noticed. They're really big on it now for whatever reason.

At the same time, I'd ask your Readiness/Training NCO about the captain and if there's anything else you should know because he'd have more information.

If you want to do it OP, you should. It's a great opportunity if you're fine with being in the military at least 8 more years.

>>27846194
That's the thing, I thought that I would do one tour and get out, but now I'm not sure. I was perfectly happy to chill at a small strategic unit that doesn't even pt.

But imagine the shitbagging that I could do as an officer... It could be legendary....

There's already a knife general.

Nice knife though, really diggin' the handle.

Yeah I quite like that design too, looks like a neat little utility design and m390 is awesome, wouldn't choose lime green though.

I'm really liking the design of this little knife too, still tossing up whether to get one or not though.
