but but i have an mp5If you don't have an MP5 you're lame.
It's okay, not owning an MP5 means you didn't bankrupt yourself with the HK tax.but but i have an mp5![]()
but... buh i did eat my MP5 for breakfast this morning...It's okay, not owning an MP5 means you didn't bankrupt yourself with the HK tax.
Ive seen them doing stuff with 40mm grenades recently for drone defence. Put a VT fuse in, slap it into a MK-19 on a automated turret, and bam, you have cheap anti drone spam. Turkey developed one as the Şahin counter unmanned air system.Soon enough I'm sure.
That said a possible even BETTER anti drone weapon would be micro missiles.
Take a RPG-7 launch tube, make a small maneuvering fire and forget missile to fit in it, clip on a sight that can feed the missile targeting data and viola, you get an Omni launcher than can fire HE, HEAT, and Anti drone missiles easily.
Remember, an anti drone missile can be smaller than a HEAT warhead and only needs to have a 1-2km range and 2-3km of altitude. Seeker could be EO or maybe a really simple radar guidance system. 1-2kg HE frag warhead and a proximity/impact fused system and you're set.
Estonia is already developing a small 50cm long "micro missile" exclusively for anti drone use.
For bigger or further away threats a Stinger class MANPADS or a APKWS system is fine.
The era is smaller Anti air / anti drone missiles with large magazine depths are rapidly approaching
The cool part about the Uzi pro is that if you bought a factory pistol brace model (which I did, of course) the brace uses the same hinge as the Micro folding stock, too.Mail it to me.
Funny enough unrelated, had dinner with Poppa Basso. I mentioned I can't get over how many "old guns" I want now. Now I'm "old" I grew up in 90s... I was like lame uzi.. I didn't know guns then ... well whoops.. now I want an uzi..
Unrelated IMI looks like new uzi. I'll built a parts one.
Even before I got into guns and only liked the old things (esp because grandpa was OG snake with a m1) crazy I don't have a FN FAL/ g3.
Is this an integrally suppressed Saiga-12? Thats awesome.
I'd assume they're hoping to make new receivers for all their spare parts as a way to supplement the CMP orders with a "not necessarily historical Garand for the sake of having a Garand" option, but you're probably right and it's going to be exactly like the 1911 debacle where people buy to sell rattletraps with a 300% markup.Genuinely curious how this even makes sense economically. There's no way these are going to sell for less than $2000 a piece.
What I'm 100 percent certain is the reaction to the secondary market say 5 years from now:

you can easily re-barrel a garand to 9.3x62 or .35 whelen which is quite potent on flesh. just need a new barrel. USGI bolt works with no mods and the clips do too.I'll be called a faggot, a pinko, a commie. But I did get a CMP m1 and not too long ago a few years. I do not enjoy it.
The ergos and ,don't match. I'm sorry. I'm a history buff and was THRILLED to get one. I've shot em before and knew the issues. So having one was just to collect and impress boomers.
it's super they are making new ones because CMP can be kinda a PITA for some sales. This will be pricy but you can get one, and when CMP dries up... they will be GONE.
Also like wise man said... more gun > less gun for options. Fuck it while it's a sin I rather there be a 223 SKS and .380 acp BAR than NOT have those options.
While I've heard people going bigger and VERY hot on the aught six... If made well the newer metals are better... could you picture a nice brand new safe well made 338 Lapua Garand? Because BASED? Sure it'll be 7k but .. it's a fucking 338 gur-hand.
It was 80 in my area first day carried my 1903![]()
Having a non-matching gun is more historically accurate, people went through this when they got their 1911 orders through. Oh no, the slide is from the '80s and the receiver is from '51, woe is me, I've been bamboozled by the CMP!and ,don't match
I agree, 100% I collect because history and I prefer parts guns reworked etc because I also like to shoot!Having a non-matching gun is more historically accurate, people went through this when they got their 1911 orders through. Oh no, the slide is from the '80s and the receiver is from '51, woe is me, I've been bamboozled by the CMP!
Congrats, your gun was used and had to be patched up by armorers multiple times.
That's got to be a comforting feeling. If I passed, I know nobody else in my family is as autistic about guns as I am so they'd all probably be sold. The thought of my MK18 going to someone who will put red anodized parts on it is probably part of what keeps me alive so that it never happens.mrs basso will be taken care of and she would never sell the guns
