UCP being Universal Camo Pattern, nigger. I know that many call it ACU, but ACU is technically just the clothing part of the uniform. You can buy ACUs in different patterns than ugly grey UCP. Considering how faggoty /k/ gets when someone says clips instead of magazines or vice-versa, I figured I'd nail the official names and acronyms.

The camofags are certainly an arm of this operation. The globalists don't like armed American gun owners so what better way to drain their capital, divert it towards "safer" objects, and disrupt any attempt at organizing effective resistance than to amplify a tangentially related (at best) subgroup of the board with no loyalty to nation, people, or community and a huge persecution complex?

Well no, not an intermediate round by today's standards, but back then it would have considered as such

>>32331118
Not in terms of bullet diameter, true. But it had a heavier bullet than 5.56 NATO and softer recoil than 30-06 or .308, which is why I called it an intermediate cartridge. Forgotten Weapons compares it to a 6.5 Grendel of Carcano.

No, though it offers ballistics that tickles the balls of such.

If it were significantly longer and older, it probably would be considered a full-power load. It really blurs the line.

I have literally never heard of the term "UCP" until it became a buzzword on /k/ and never heard it outside of it. Maybe it's what Air Force calls it when needing to tell apart their abysmal tiger stripe shit and ACU vests and gear.

Who cares if those faggots wear 1969 ERDL shit? It's not stolen valor unless they're getting something out of it. Get off your fucking high horse guy. You were in the army and so was I, Big Fucking Deal.

Fuck off back to your containment thread. We've had it with you shits running around like you own the place.

>>32331367
Fair, I concede the argument.
>>32331404
Less recoil also means better accuracy and better follow-up shots. These two factors combined meant that the .276 Garand scored more hits per pound of ammunition than the BAR or the 1903 Springfield during testing in 1929.

Snipers "and shit" don't autistically read off tame and manufacture date of camo shit. No one cares unless they are a fobbit that has nothing better to do than read FMs for guns and equipment they will never use.

>>32331521
>the .276 Garand scored more hits per pound of ammunition than the BAR or the 1903 Springfield during testing in 1929.
Well, no shit. The .276 Pedersen round weighed just a hair over half as much as military .30-06. That's almost twice as many shots per pound of ammo, it could've been significantly LESS accurate and still scored better.

But this brings us back to the age-old wisdom of
>the only thing worse than a miss is a slow miss

Also I think it's fair to point out that while the .276 Pedersen round was lighter, it wasn't substantially less bulky. The rim diameter was larger (based on the 8mm mauser parent case) and the substantially long spitzer bullet took the COAL to 2.855" compared to M1 ball's 3.340". It was only about a half inch shorter.

Wut

This is the dumbest shit I've ever heard. People who wear two different patterns with their one type of uniform can't tell the difference?
>>
>>32331590
Saved. Camocuck fucking shits.
>>
>>32331581
Fair point. Given the increased amount of ammo a soldier could carry in .276 verses 30-06, I think its still a net positive. Another more esoteric advantage I failed to mention was that because .276 had a lower pressure that 30-06, the chaber walls didn't have to be as thick. This meant that the .276 op rod didn't have that weird kink the 30-06 rod did, and resulted in a stronger overall design. A small advantage that would only matter to the armorers, but one that soothes my autism.
>>
>>32331634

>>32331703
Yeah, they don't call their woodland and desert patterns the same fucking thing. That makes no sense. They differentiate between the two by calling them jungle cammies and desert cammies. The same is true in the army with OCP AND UCP.

>>
>>32331652
Oh yeah, it would've still been a net upgrade. The differences however were minor enough that sticking with good ol' -06 was the best choice for the time period.

Now if only .280 British had stuck around.

now i know you werent in the infantry probably some pog fagg

We call them cammies regardless of pattern. We use tan or green when relaying to the retarded that it's time to switch. I.e. "BC wants us in tan at formation"
>>
>>32331877
He wasn't disagreeing with you muhreen. He's just saying that ACU = uniform in the army just like cammies = uniform in the marine corps. Our two patterns are called OCP and UCP just like yours are Tan and Green.

You do realize that ACU is the name of that style of uniform, right? With the pockets and the patches and the shape and cut of the uniform? That's what ACU is, it's the Army Combat Uniform.

UCP is the name of the patters, Universal Camouflage Pattern.

The UCP pattern is on the ACU uniform, just like OCP which is Multicam is on the same ACU uniforms.

Holy shit, people are fucking dumb.
