What does /k/ think about Turkey's TFX fighter?
Also, combat aviation thread.
Luft46 and Convair wank planes welcome.

what do you expect? The thing was designed by peope that understand little more about aerodynamics than the guys creating the modesl for ace combat
If the purpose of the 2nd Amendment is, as gun owners so often assert, to enable the people to rebel against the government, then why does the Constitution explicitly authorize the government to crush insurrections?
>>34367965
Where does it say that? Hell, according to the constitution the government shouldnt have an army...but it does...welcome to world of 'people lie and the government doesnt make sense but takes your dollars to do so'.
>>34368221
Article 1, section 8, paragraph 15.
>To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;

Tell me /k/, are land mines still a viable option for modern warfare, or have their roles become too limited due to urban warfare and small skirmishes replacing the traditional battlefield?
>>34367827
IEDs have been the single most popular weapon for warfare in the past decade.
IEDs are essentially homemade land mines.
IEDs are immensely popular in modern warfare and they are somewhat related to landmines
>>34367841
>>34367842
Are landmines useful to a Western military fighting the type of war we're engaged in, or is the area denial they provide only useful to the local Jihadists?
Me and a couple of friends were thinking of doing a cosplay as these characters.
Wondering if /k/ could tell us exactly what equipment they are using, and if any parts are invented if there are any similar pieces out there.
>>34367761
Well the skelly troopers are ww2 paratroopers and mads looks to be early 2000 army ranger

Where can I get a blaze orange plate carrier?
I don't want to die innawoods because of a hunting "accident".
Are NIJ Level IV plates good for .300 Win Mag, .300 RUM, and other popular durr rifle cartridges?
>>34368279
Just get pic related and not use the velcro. It's light enough that you can flick it out of the way
>>34366814

So who's the modern James Moses Browning, /k/? Is there even one? Is there any weapon in the last few decades that wasn't designed by a committee?
>>34366469
>So who's the modern James Moses Browning, /k/? Is there even one?
Even if there were, he'd never have anywhere near the independence or autonomy that JMB did
>>34366469
The last "browning" was named Stoner, or Klashnakov depending on who you talk to.
The closest living example is "wilhelm bubits"
go ahead. google him. he is responsible for many of the polymer framed striker guns you goobers salivate over.
>>34366469
no, because the NFA didn't exist in his time. You could just cobble up a machine gun and sell the fucking thing, and the prices of ammo weren't artificially inflated like they are now. Furthermore, the information was actually out there WAS OUT THERE when he was doing it. There's a book that gun collectors are after with hard ons and wads of thousands of dollars to buy that's been out of print almost if not at least a hundred years, which details things like making primers and cases and what not, though I can't remember the name. Otherwise, the information is out there, but you have to be very dedicated to finding it, rather than searching at an "at a glance" basis. He knew things that we never will unless someone torrents that book on gunsmithing from way the fuck back when out to the internet. Even then the lucky bastard who did that could easily get away with charging prices as high as $1,500 for a digital copy or download.
I know /k/ hates Slav Planes, but can we agree that the MIG-21 is
>>34364876
Garbage?
Yes, wecan agree on that
>the MIG-21 is
Actually, it's well known that the Mig-21 was a hoax by a group of Hungarian filmmakers attempting to stir up interest in indie flicks about the air war in Vietnam.
>>34364876
It was the best 3rd generation fighter, full stop.
Honestly doe, how are we supposed to stop psychos from flipping out and dumping mags into crowds without enacting laws?

You can't separate politics from guns because the very idea guns is political in nature

Take it from someone who thoroughly considers these issues: it happens far, far less than it could. It's actually quite amazing when you think about it.
Tried out my buddies G17 the other day through about 150 rounds. I have been debating a Glock but after shooting it I couldn't get accustomed to the bland grip design or the wildly poking out making release. Should I have another Glock a-go-around before I dump the whole brand?
>>34363732
I would. Not a big fan of Glock myself but I do know there are aftermarket frames that get rid of that horrid hump.
Glocks are like nissans. They work just fine, but they have nothing super special going for them either. I just think they are boring.
No don't bother.
The thread for all things precise, from 17 HMR to 50 BMG.
How many Anons out there hunt over bean fields?
Is there a better factory rifle than the Sendero for that?
took it out for the first time, only got 1 sub moa group. will be buying some better ammo for next time.
>>34363061
said group
>>34363061
>PPU
I always stick to hand loads or FGMM when trying to determine a rifle's mechanical accuracy.
How many seconds would the USA last in a nuclear war against Russia?
Realistically speaking, how could the Pentagon operate after the Kremlin sends 1000 cobalt enriched warheads toward them from mobile platforms?
Summoning Oppenheimer.
>>34363038
Better scenario. How will America survive against Russia's fleet of star destroyers, or antimatter bombs.
About the same realism as above scenario.
>pentagon
Pretty damn long. My father worked there and took me in back in high school. Holy shit. It is a labyrinth. Took three different elevators going straight down until we walked a half mile to get to his office. I have no idea the actual scale of that thing, but it's got to be massive. My ears were popping on the elevator rides.
What was the biggest /k/ meme you fell for? I fell for the Nugget meme. Only took it to the range two times and every time it was horrible. Horrific recoil that gave me a bruise every outing. I still have it but I'm so glad I bought an M&P Sport
>>34362393
>he doesn't love the bruise
>he posts fattasses
Yeah, this is about what I expected from OP.

is that a good thing?
How much regrets will i have if i buy pic related?
I have only owned one other lelkek product, the ksg, and it isn't too bad of a gun. I looked around a bit and it looks like its a mix between a shit load of problems with the gas and running like a dream.
Should i pull the trigger and just dump 1500 on one?
>>34362174
I think I've seen them as low as 1250 online. I'm looking into it as well all reports I can find say build quality is close enough to milspec.
You can get them for ~1200 all day long my dude.
>great trigger
>reliable, infinite gas settings if it somehow isn't
>keltec will fix any issue with it
>fully ambi
>literally the only .308 bullpup of any repute
>as compact as legally allowable without going NFA
Only real issue with them is they're 2-3MOA guns. Understand that and you'll be happy.
>>34362206
Oh also they're heavy. Like 11lbs loaded or something I don't remember exactly. Add for optic.
