I think the AR style platform will see material changes for about the next 30-40 years until there's some breakthrough

from the GPMG perspective, it's gonna be all belts

from the SAW-style things; it'll probably just be standard rifle body + different barrel + larger mags

surefire's 60's are pretty nice

The Marines have gone back to sort of a WWII style LMG with the IAR.

Interesting that we and the russians (RPK) came to similar conclusions on firepower

I heard you talkin shit on creedmoor lol

Where?

Idk maybe I misread it haha

I dunno if I would call the IAR "ww2 style"

I think he means a mag fed support gun like the bar

I don't think they had anything that would fit into the role that was less than 10 lbs

yeah

Rather than belt

That's definitely what I'm talking about in reference to the SAW getting nuked for the most part

There just isn't enough of a need for shitloads of suppressive fire in modern combat

Plus I guess large mags are easier to carry than drums

I wish I had more time to shoot. My groupings are shit across the board

for 6.5?

For literally everything I own

I probably should have used it as a stepping stone, but I decided I didn't want to just be at 1200

I wanted to push high energy further

Pistol, creedmoor dmr

Later this week my vector comes in and I'll probably be shit with that too

My handloads got me a .4-something group

but it's still not enough

I need a shitload of US869

it did really fucking well for me

I didn't prepare a ladder for it though, just retumbo + 300gr smk

Also, I have a single 100yd range to shoot at, while the local 600 and 800 yard ranges costs a Saudi fortune to shoot at

no local BLM?

?

That's where I go when I want to shoot elr

Well, I dunno if you're amereagan, but since you're talking about a vector I'm assuming you probably are

Yes

Bureau of land management

Oh

i.e. federally controlled land

Yeah we have those, but the longest range they have near me is 75

yeah, that sucks

I'm in the land of the communists and I still get 100 20 minutes away from the city

I kinda wish I lived pout west. So much open land to shoot on

The worst part though is that I only get to shoot every other weekend so I never really get too much better

the west is best jek

Except for all the communists and Mormons

Fucking mormons

GRILL EM ALL

pogroms on mormons

mormons generally aren't bad unless you're one of them

mfw a *vet* can't answer what an AR 15 is

ffs

"anything that fires more than an eight round clip"

This guy can't be for realsies

He's either the POGgiest POG that ever POG'd or it's a case of stolen valor

He keeps going on about bravery and cowardice

pro tip

when you're a 120Ib woman, bravery isn't going to keep you from getting raped by a 230Ib man

Charlie Kirk does better in live situations than he does on twitter tbh

Because he's said some rather silly things on twitter

Dude smashes people in person though, go figure

Kyle has had to grow up quick, too

He doesn't seem anywhere near as unhinged as Hogg is, though

It’s ironic too because Kyle was actually IN THE SCHOOL when the shooting happened. So you’d expect him to be the outrageous one. I guess giving him so much time on the media and all the attention gives him the idea that he has all this power to “change the world”.

But yeah the old guy in the video just presents how the left and/or liberals always use their emotions in arguments

Was Hogg at the school when it happened? Trying to separate fact from tinfoil. I thought he was at the school but not in the building where the shooting was happening

He said in an interview that he rode his bike three miles to get there once he heard there was a shooting going on

I think he actually got there before the police

Er

Has anyone asked him why he'd ride *towards* an active shooter situation?

I think he was a journalist, he’d write for the school newspaper and things of that nature

Yeah, that don't help his case tbh

Hm? Why not?

A teenager student going to a active shooter situation? What he would do? Take pictures of the bodies?

Also, I don't believe this guy is either sane or even served in the armed forces

ah, but you see, he cares so much about his fellow students he rushed there as soon as he heard

very brave

stunning and brave

yeah, like I said, he seems like the epitome of stolen valor

Which I believe Australian soldiers are no longer allowed to accuse others of anymore

because *bullying*

That's retarded

not 100% if that's the case, but I know it's definitely been debated

I would hate to live in Australia

Calling out someone for Stolen valor is nowhere near bullying

Mfw America is on its way there <:pepe_sad:378719408345841664>

Actually, now that I try to remember it

I think it was something like active service personnel being told that they weren't allowed to post on a facebook group about it

or something like that

```Under the Federal Defence Act, persons falsely representing themselves as returned soldiers, sailors or airmen, or wearing decorations that were not earned, can face up to six months' jail and a $3,300 fine.```

```Rex Crane, 83, who is the former president of the Ex-Prisoners of War Association, was exposed as a fake who allegedly claimed more than $405,000 as a disabled World War II veteran.

But Bill claims such action by the authorities is the exception to the rule.

"If politicians, police and the courts did not consistently fail to enforce the laws intended to protect veterans' and the community's interests, ANZMI wouldn't need to do their jobs for them," he said.

"Those who turn a blind eye to crime are complicit in its execution."

Unless there is a clear cut case of financial fraud, police tend to give military fantasists a low priority.```

@Reaps
Can't disagree with that

Active duty militaries need to keep quiet, specially with all the information gathering you can do over social media

Same for their families

Plus, the laws for Stolen valor seems decent

Oof

When your RAP Senior Constable also turns out to be a Sergeant in the Royal Australian Army
