What do you think about vid related? tl;dw is that everyone's favourite Larry had a tricked out CAR-15 that he used in Panama and in the Gulf War to "hunt SCUDs". He said that their experience was part of the reason the US Army switched to the M4 from the M16, even though he himself says that they should have used 7.62 guns in the Gulf War.

>>684973

It's a nice carbine is what I think, but he clearly stated where the "problem" is.

The M4 is retarded as a general purpose service rifle, because it can't do "general purpose".

It's fine replacing MP5 (or SMGs that were still in service in the 80's in most commandos units) as commandos aren't supposed to get in long range firefights, CQC and surprise actions is their job by a 5.56 carbine, but if you're replacing a 147 gr projectile launched at 800m/s rifle by a 62 gr launched at 850m/s (instead of the 1000 it was designed for) at some point you got to admit that it's not gonna be able to do the same thing because it's half the energy and even if 5.56 flies better than 7.62… it's nowhere near two times better.

The problem is not a technical problem. It's a doctrinal one, the "chechenisation" of conflict.

First chechen war. Russia sends conscripts, a full cycle was done since the collapse of the Soviet Union, conscript where barely kept fed and warm, let alone trained. Conscripts get slaughtered.

Russia leaderships reacts, sends in guys that are actually still trained (spec ops). Spec ops end up being used as "line" infantry… it kinda works but not well and is clearly unsustainable and leads to a full on Pyrrhic victory and Russia is forced to withdraw (which will lead to deep changes and reform of the Russian army).

The moral of the story is: Spec ops aren't magic.

Commandos forces outside of their elements (surprise, CQC) aren't exactly better than regular infantry.

They're often worse. If it had been 12 guys on a Stryker (US medium infantry), or 3 Humvee (US light infantry), they wouldn't had been attacked in the first place and had they been they would have won. And had they actually been linked to their proper support assets, as combined warfare dictates, it's quite possible no one on their side would have died.

Like Vickers' said, it's a 200 meter gun. It rocks in those 200 meters, but beyond that it begins to falter.

What >>684996 said is spot on. Special Forces equipment needs are not indicative of what line infantry needs. Both need to have access to different tools for different jobs, and have enough support at the fireteam level to make use of said tools. Trying to find a single caliber or projectile that works at close and long range is going to result in diminishing returns. Same with the lead throwing platform. And with training.

Giving your troops a swiss army knife may allow them to do a lot of things, but probably not better than with dedicated tools.

Now there are some outliers, red dot optics with or without magnifiers, better controls on the gun, .300 blackout (It has it's own issues though) to name a few, that can bridge some of those gaps in an economic manner. But almost all of them can be adapted to a gun that is better at that distance than one that NEEDS those bits to become effective at the same range.

Close range guns need to be developed for 0-200 meters. General line infantry guns need to be developed for 200-400 meters. And longer range general line infantry guns need to be 300-700 meters.

Now keep in mind that this does not cover support weapons, just the general issue rifles/SMG for infantry. You are still going to have belt fed MGs and DMRs and grenade launchers, but they need to be built to suit their purpose. The MGs need a robust magnified optic paired with a red dot, as does the DMR. The GL should be standalone with the option of attaching it to your primary, unless it is a dedicated standalone shoulder fired system.

As for SF? Their needs are way to diverse to use them as the model for infantry. There will be some crossover, but in general it would be for specialist positions like Sappers and Combat Engineers. And very rarely for the majority of the GIs.

It would also do wonders to expand the idea of Special Operations Capable units and personal. You don't always need all of your SF boys to bPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Even old feudal minded line infantry standard liking guys like me have to admit that the mixed squad is the way forward at this point. Whacky ideas about replacing the light machine gun are insane, it is the one piece of squad equipment that can't change except for extremely specific special operations duty. If you go with assault rifles, or even assault carbines, you end up needing battle rifle or now DMR support to supplement that lack of range in certain conditions. The dream of the standardized rifle for all 8-12 men of a standard infantry squad will have to wait, until something major super comes along to radically change things.

The negative parts of heavy specialty is that it becomes an organizational issue at the very least, now you have to attach how many specialized units to base minimum unit what/ An anti tank sub unit to every company, do you stick them to a platoon, place them in the heavy weapons platoon of an infantry company? How many DMR and where do you allot them? Full sniper support where and how? Small special operations forces find this easy, doing this along an army is more difficult, and trying to organize this and find replacements in a third world war would be insanely logistically difficult. Finding new units to equip new units, then organizing sending DMR, tank busters, snipers, ect. to these highly diversified units as they take casualties is an issue.

Standard line infantry advantage for its disadvantage with this issue: loss of specialization, but ease of equipping standard units and replacing losses. Give them man a rifle and standard equipment for the theater and send him.

The universal and constant problem of the diversified squad has haunted us from its earliest days back in WW2. SMG's can't be used very effectively at extended ranges, if you get into a longer range fight with weapons and people whoPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Allow me to disagree. Minor gains in major factors that can't be had any other way for a mere $600 (or 2x) price of Glock sound like a GREAT biz model.

For fucks sake, browse any normie gun forum like (((Calguns))). Every Boomer and his nephews are all adding $600 worth of shit to their Glocks and don't get me started on AR-15s and 1911s. $1100 is a starting point for "big name" 1911, and it goes up past $4000 easy.

I'm not a big time shooter, but I've shot my share of pistols and bore axis is pretty much THE thing, so just say "better than ANY other" is a big, big deal.

Any new venture is risky, but I'd have considered investing. I'd consider it again. Lots of ideas take a couple of tries.

>>684908

But the H9 doesn't change bore axis at all, and functions worse than every other $1100 pistol I have ever seen with the sole exception of a Kimber. It's not "better than any other", you fucking moron, the reason the company failed is because of no noticeable improvement coupled with glaring reliability problems. Don't even get me started on your Reddit spacing or necroposting.

Let's not forget housing prices! Part of the central economy's plan is to have housing prices go up and up forever, higher housing prices means higher values which means more equity for people to borrow on! They need all that equity to borrow on so they can borrow huge amounts of cash to refinance their overspent lives, or better yet borrow to buy more stuff! Housing prices going down could "drown" many mortgages, and they've already pushed people to borrow on their equity to the point that housing prices falling could put them under water, by the tens of millions. Consumer credit is the main way they get cash into the real economy, so beyond credit cards, housing prices must go up and up and up.

And how DO you get housing prices to go up when the population stagnates? Better yet, how do you get housing prices to inflate when the population starts to slowly drop and demand drops? Why, YOU INVITE MILLIONS UPON MILLIONS OF ANYONE FROM ANYWHERE IN because now that will keep the housing boom up and up and up forever! Take a look at the push for "immigration" and it is many people who profit big from housing and development. Value must go up forever or the economy will crash!

Along with that, the modern economy can over produce so many things that old citizens in rich first world countries often quit buying things after a while. Yes, consumerism keeps a lot of consumption going, but a lot of real demand slows down because of abundance. In the old days, even with overproduction of the Industrial Revolution, new consumers in the form of young people moving out and getting their own apartments, houses, and families, helped to drive up demand for new stuff. As the demographic situation develops and young people are less and less, they again see importing worthless eaters, people that will never work a day in their life and rape and rob and do great evil, as positives because they are poor and can consume!

Look at advertisements for credit, notice they target "immigrants". They are here to borrow money and spend. If they aren't working low wage jobs, they are appreciated by many planners bePost too long. Click here to view the full text.

>The real bitch is getting the mainspring back together.

If you put pressure on the hammer that relieves the spring tension, and there's a hole on the hammer tail which you can stick a small trim nail, pin, needle, etc in. It's only like 1/16"- so it can be kind of a trick, but once you have that in place the spring is captive and you can manipulate the hammer and trigger frame however you want. Having the mainspring squished down like that also relieves the tension of the hammer from the bolt which can make pulling the lever out easier. Just pop it out after you've reassembled the rear end and you're good to go.

It would help if Rossi would give people the damn disassembly instructions in the manual. It's identical to a Winchester 1892 but that doesn't mean it's common knowledge to anybody.

Hopefully there won't be a NATO by the time we all start killing each other on a massive scale again.

The Jewish population at the time that existed for hundreds of years shockingly decided to betray the country and introduce a law that required further council decisions to be near unanimous. They then bribed council members to stop votes and began to partition the country itself to foreign powers until it was fully taken over.

also no, it burns hot but doesnt expand enough. most people who get into hardcore hobbyist potato cannons still swear by flammable aerosols or butane. they offer good expansion, are cheap, and are safe to handle.

ps

>hydrogen

also offers fairly poor expansion and energy density compared to more conventional fuels. hydrogen is used in some combustion engine based generators because… uh… reasons, i guess. but there's a reason gasoline and diesel are more popular

>hydroxy

literally pseudoscience quack shit for retards. hydrogen with enough oxygen to burn is already "hydroxy" but without the pseudoscience quack shit. there are optimizations to be made in your fuel-air mix but "hydroxy" in its usual definitions is different from hydrogen and oxygen happening to be the same place and is, again, pseudoscience quack shit for retards.

if anything, a more viable thing to what you want for a gun to use in some kind of insurgency situation would be a hybrid diesel-air gun. some people already do it for funsies with normal air rifles, but basically you put some Vaseline Or Something in the skirt of a pellet and the rapidly increasing pressure causes the Vaseline Or Something to literally diesel and burst into flame, slightly increasing the muzzle energy by introducing conventional gas expansion by burning something quick-burning. it can also happen with freshly but very sloppily oiled air guns.
