Can anyone identify the machine gun featured on this video game box art? The shotgun looks like a stylized SPAS-12 and the revolver looks like a Dan Wesson PPC but I can't identify the LMG she's using. Can anyone tell me if it's based on a real gun? I really like the way it looks.
i think m60 or m205? just for show , sadly was not featured in the game, interesting guns neverthless
It looks vaguely like a Benelli M4 with a RIS handguard.

What military helmet is the most aesthetic? And why is it the PASGT?
>>34623848
M-35.
>>34623848
Because it looks most similar to German Stahlhelms,
>>34623848
god the modern ACH looks like ass compared to the PASGT.
Not trying to start a topic about the Troubles, but how and why does the FAL get the name "Right arm of the free world"?
From what I see it was used by Communists too, and the British forces using them didn't tend to use them to uphold freedom, but suppress it.
It was also used by Muslims, too.
>Not trying to start a topic about the Troubles
If you say so paddy.
It was used by the majority of the free world, being the Commonwealth and much of Europe. That it was used to oppress 3rd world nigger states like Ireland and the Congo is both incidental and irrelevant.
>>34623868
I wouldn't call Europe "free", Commonwealth even less so.
>>34623845
>Not trying to start a topic about the Troubles, but how and why does the FAL get the name "Right arm of the free world"?
Dieudonné Saive, the lead designer for FN-H, decided to effectively gift the FN FAL design to all allied countries which had in some way supported the liberation of Belgium in the Second World War.
Effectively, he donated his design to the West allowing them rights to build and modify the design, at no cost. This turned the FN FAL into a very cost effective design to counter the AK47 and AKM. Countries did not have to design their own guns, yet did not have to pay to license and produce a foreign design.
In the Cold War, the West (supposedly) represented freedom, as a result, the FAL became the right arm of the free world.
>From what I see it was used by Communists too
Only what they captured. FALs were never sold to or produced by Communists.
>>34623885
>I wouldn't call Europe "free", Commonwealth even less so.
Land of the free, home of the brave, etc. But the USA is far from free either.
So what's the point? This is a political thing to say, marketing cares not for truth.
So I just became ''coach'' of a local shooting team (schützen). We've never really had any ambitious goals, and I'm trying to change that.
Our shooting sport (pic related) basically involves hitting a 10x10mm target, at 16m distance, using a subsonic 12 gauge with airgun style globe+diopter sights.
Teams consist of 6 shooters, each of them doing 3 shots per round.
In order to win the local championships, you'd need to go for about 20 rounds without missing a single target. We have about two (sometimes three) teams, they understand the fundamentals and they're quite good. However, we're not always winning matches.
Has anyone on /k/ ever done some coaching? Any tips or pointers you could give me on how to improve team performance beyond regular training?
>>34623820
I'll keep bumping with some more pictures.
Pic related is what we call the ''rake'', it holds 180 targets: those black cubes. For matches, they're usually 10x10mm, although the first few rounds are on 15x15mm units. Each bar holds 36 targets, which is enough for 2 rounds of shooting (3 shots * 6 shooters = 18 shots).
Next up, the rifle and ammo.
>>34623865
The rifle is a single shot, bolt action 12 gauge, with a really long barrel so you can properly rest it. The front of the modern ones (like pic related) is just a hollow tube, only two thirds is actually rifled. The last third of the barrel can be used to fit an integral suppressor. Most shooting ranges are at the edge of populated areas, so the sound reduction (~10Db) is welcome. Without a suppressor, they're only about 130 Db.
They use the basic globe and diopter sights off an Olympic-style airgun, which are really accurate once you know how to shoot them. At 16 meters, I can consistently hit the 5mm wooden stick holding up the black cubes. The rifle itself is well sub-MOA anyways.
They have an adjustable double set trigger. I've never measured one, but they're all well below 100 grams or just a few ounces.
>>34623923
The ammo is also 12 gauge, but not your standard 2.5'' or 3'' fare. Each individual casing is turned on a lathe, and (practically speaking) reloaded forever - untill the chamber of the rifle wears out.
Total cartridge length is between 35 and 40mm, about 1 1/2 inches. Since we're shooting in the open (most of the time), there's stricht limits to bullet weight and velocity, which ensures that we don't need massive shooting ranges. Current weight limit is something like 40 grams (~600 grains), with a maximum of 230m/s muzzle velocity (about 750 fps). Each bullet/slug is hand-cast (pure lead), and each cartridge is reloaded by hand - because no factory makes ammo for these things, and even if they did, it wouldn't be accurate enough.
Is it better to send your main forces first to weaken an enemy, and when they are weakened send your elite/shock forces to defeat them.
Or should you send in your elites first to open up a hole in the enemy and then pour in with the main forces?
>>34623794
>Send your shock troops in second
Do you know what the fuck shock troops are?
>>34623801
Yes
The marines
>>34623794
concurrent to put pressures on multiple angles to force the enemy into non optimal force deployment
Has anyone made one to find drones spying on us?
>>34623694
I made a CW doppler radar a while ago. I never did any signal processing with it but i was able to figure our velocity with a pen, paper and an oscillosocpe.
>>34623694
Great way to microwave your own head, and piss off your neighbors when you fry their electronics
>Has anyone made one to find drones spying on us
Take your meds OP
I'm leaving for Ranger school in a month and I had a question for you guys...what makes a good military leader? What is the one defining trait that sticks out among the GREAT military leaders?
I'm talking Patton, Caeser, Alexander the Great, Petraeus, McChrystal.
I'm asking because I know that's a big part of Ranger school. The ability to lead men.
>>34623630
A Scroll.
>>34623630
All of those men had different leadership styles that were all effective; there's no one way to do it. Lead how you'd want to be led.
My advice is to read. Read all you can and learn all you can. All the great captains of history learned from those who came before them.
>>34623667
Can't trust a leader without one
All he did was take the STG44 and mashed the SKS cartridge and some SKS features into a new rifle
there I said it
>>34623447
>>34623447
The STG44 operates completely differently from an AK. The resemblance is purely cosmetic.

please tell me you're better than that
So Croatia is replacing their Mig-21s. Current options are Gripens, the FA-50, and oddly enough F-16s from either the US, Israel, or Greece. I'm assuming the F-16s would be used models which is why the sorta odd inclusion of Greece in there.
http://www.airforce-technology.com/news/newscroatia-to-float-rfp-for-foreign-fighter-aircraft-5873661
Croatia currently spends a whopping 1.21% of GDP ($633m) on it's military and is looking to replace a rapidly aging fleet of 12 Mig-21s with something else. The used F-16s would be the obvious choice because $$$.
>>34623424
FA-50 is fairly cheap though, and a newer aircraft would be easier to maintain then a beat to shit F-16. The lower capabilities aren't really an issue when they really just need it for interdiction anyways. I guess the F-16 would be good considering the massive supply support for it, but the FA-50 uses some common Lockheed parts as well.
For a small country like croatia the gripen would be the best choice. It offers good fuel efficiency and cheap fligh time and maintenance. It is also a perfect fighter for the air-air inceptor role. I don't think Croatia will need much air to ground capabilities.
Oh and did i already mention that it's CHEAP
Is the Type 055 destroyer the best looking modern surface ship?
>>34623349
No. There's still tons of WWII cruisers and DDs In service in turd world nations. Naval aesthetics hard peaked in the 40s.
Kind of reminds me of that pic of the chick sitting on the bed and all the walls are lined with rows and rows of used condoms.

I'm driving from AZ to TX. I wanna take my Glock 17 concealed. I have an AZ CCW. Will there be any legal trouble in NM and TX if I do? Also, gun law thread.
In NM your car is treated like an extension of your home so you shouldnt have any issue

They earn money on it as well. You give them a reaction they get paid for and your blood pressure goes up.

Nobody wanted the ARES Shrike when it was fresh, why would they when it now when they could just get something in a better caliber like the LSAT? In fact, why not just put the lighter ammo through existing Mk46s and forget the upper swap altogether?
Oh shit it looks like it's already or soon to be available on the civilian market.

This was just announced yesterday. It's supposed to be new and improved.
Daily reminder that if you are fat you will die within the first 24 hours of shtf and sadly that is most of /k/. My question is how do you fat fucks justify spending all your money on guns and gear that will belong to whoever finds your dead ass on the side of the road when you can't be bothered to do a fucking sit-up which last I checked is free.
Nah desu. New Orleans has some of the fattest assholes in the country and most of them survived Katrina, which was the only thing close to a SHTF event in living memory.
>your dead ass on the side of the road
Where do people get this idea that IRL SHTF is going to be just wandering around the countryside? Stay in your house, bunker down.
