Yeah, to say that this man jacks off too much is a under statement.

I thought the fact a Thompson fires pistol rounds compared to the AK 7.62mm was proof enough that the guns couldn't be more dissimilar.

Blowback, which is what the Thompson runs on inherently, can't handle the pressure of 7.62x39mm, which is over double of 45 acp. There are some blowback derivatives that COULD, like lever delayed in the FAMAS, but blowback like it is in the Thompson just can't.

America probably should be thinking about foreign affairs but the affairs of Mexico and Canada because the shitty policies of those country’s are hurting America.

It's not so much an issue with people talking about international matters that gets annoying. It's when these youtube/twitter clowns start bitching about internal American affairs. Especially when they try to tell me who to vote for when they have no idea what is going on in America.

Foreigners fuck off

Only if you're too much of a pussy to lug around a 40 pound gun with a bolt the size of an M2 bolt. Anyway I figured some madman must have tried it and sure enough. Guy in the comments claims you could do it with a 6.3 pound bolt, which is fucking insane, but still seems low to me.

I'd have to see that 6.3 pound bolt before I believe it, blowback as a rule gets exponentially heavier the more pressure you add

It's calculation. Of the few good times I've had on /k/ I've learned guys with a CNC machine, pressure tables, and a calculator lack any concept of rounding up for safety. See: guy who wanted to see if he could get a lever gun to handle .50 BMG pressures.

Isolationism is itself a bit of a canard, a talking point retroactively invented by Cold War war hawks to talk about the rightful skepticism the American public developed towards foreign wars after WW1 and the widely correct view that they had been manipulated to fight on behalf of the British Empire.

I was recently listening to a podcast on the F-16's development, and it's obviously a long discussion focused largely on John Boyd. From what I gathered, both the F-15 and F-16 simultaneously succeeded because of and in spite of him, but in opposite ways. The F-15's original concept was a massive 50,000lb monster that would've gone over about as well as the F-111B. His consultation managed to slim it down to the dominant fighter it became. For the F-16, his idea of a lightweight fighter was him essentially trying to build a flying race gun. What I mean by that is he was an instructor at Nellis AFB and developed his energy maneuverability theory from his experience there. The lightweight fighter was an ultimate culmination of this theory, and it would've been freakish in a 1v1 dogfight over the clear skies of Nevada. Now take that same fighter and try and put it against missile lobbing MiGs over a stormy Europe and it would've been nearly useless. Similarly, a race gun built for shooting competitions is extremely good at doing whatever competitive category it was made for, but giving that same gun to a soldier in a dirty trench would almost destroy the gun. The Air Force took Boyd's purpose built dogfight machine and added several systems to make it a true multi role jet, which pissed Boyd off because it sacrificed just a little bit of its dogfight potential. However in doing so, they created what I'd contend to be the most successful 4th generation fighter ever made. All this is to say Lazernig's almost religious hatred of the man is insulting because "huhuhuhu blitzfighter am I right guys" is way easier than the nuanced take you need in order to understand his true legacy.

Peep the horror of the Thomson autorifle. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thompson_Autorifle If you know anything about Thompson and his SMG, you know he loved the blish lock concept that didn't even exist and the only reason his gun didn't blow up was it acted as a blowback action. Take that idea and scale it up to .30-06. The only reason this gun didn't immediately blow up was the charging handle acted as an unintended lever delayed blowback. I'm pretty sure there's a forgotten weapons video floating around about some iteration of this gun if you want to see the intricate details.

It appears Pig can not fathom that people can be both wrong in some areas and right in others.

That was Burton and I will never stop ripping him. Don't make me post The Table again. But that's pretty much the issue with talking about Boyd, any historical legacy he has has been over shadowed by the Fighter Mafia using his prestige for their own retarded ideas. When the guy carrying on your legacy is Pierre Sprey, things get distorted. It's also hard to cut through the inter-service propaganda. Billy Mitchell still gets a bit of a whitewash despite being nearly universally hated by everyone who had to work with him except Hap. Same as the long debates over MacArthur, or the Two Smiths at Saipan, or, and Chaos forgive me for uttering this, but I'm beginning to wonder why Puller never got pulled into the Guadalcanal Gang and rotated back to Quantico or staff positions. If the first causality of war is innocence, the first causality of a tightening budget is truth.

My mistake, the names tend to get muddied with these fighter mafia guys and what they actually did. As you mention that's on purpose to further their own retarded grift and try to claim credit for the successes they had little to no part in.

I was just making a cheeky comment. A fun thing to do though, if you ever get a chance, is visit historic places along the US Canada border from the War of 1812. Its hilarious to read to separate plaques, describing the same battle, completely different, often both horribly inaccurate to what actually occurred..

@A Cardboard Box
The reason the British decided to stick with the rifled gun with the Chally 2 is because they had a truly absurd stock of HESH rounds, and it was cheaper to stick with a bunch of "good enough."
Click to expand...
"Had" as the Limey govt fucks had shutdown local production of it and been outsourcing it from India for iirc about 10 to 15 years now.

Secondly for anti-tank and anti-armor targets Challenger IIs have their own APFSDS rounds to use on those. Thirdly HESH (HEP) with some alterations to the round design does function well enough when fired from a smoothbore cannon.

US side: "Damn Brits tried to invade us but we beat them"
Canadian side: "Damn Yanks tried to invade us but we beat them"
What actually happened: Drunken dumbasses tried to chase a bear, ended up terribly.
