Like 3-5 bucks a pop
ill sell my car its fine
That reminds me of this meme I saw earlier that said the XM5s 6.8 wasn’t for Russian/Chinese body armor but American citizens body armor- 
Yeah I remember seeing something like that too
So far I only have one historical firearm, since I don't have a lot of room for firearms nor funding
That being my smelly
Well like if all you wanna do is put holes in paper you can get more common calibers for a ton less
Add "fat man" in your collection too
This is amazing, nothing like building something to fight the civilians rather than the actual enemy in the situation

Yeah but fifty cal
i wanna break my collarbone

You can damage yourself fine with an old wooden stock vintage rifle just fine
Nah you wont
but big boom
Perhaps, but fifty cal
Get like aome 30-06 springfield or something
If you don't 360 quick scope out of a second story building with a 50 cal you obviously shouldn't own a 50 cal
fifty cal with a big boi suppressor count me in 
No recoil dampening
Wood keeps it all manageable
Just walnut and your shoulder
A good majority of milsurp aint hitting that hard
10 pounds of wood isn't that bad
Just cause its more than something like an ar15 doesnt mean its rough
Our argentine mauser kicks hard its a full length rifle and fires that weird 7.65 argentine round. Like 8mm mauser but worse
dont some 1911s come in .50?
ARs you barely feel
im pretty sure they do, i’ll buy one of those if its legal in cali 
10mm is way more modern though
ARs have a sufficiently advanced recoil dampener in the butt stock.
Buy a FN FAL just for uncontrollable full auto
The buffer spring
I know I've seen 10mm 1911s
thats nice
Well im off for a walk, i do hope you gents are still talking bout this stuff when i get back
For people who both want to be new age
And jam single stack mags like its 100 years ago
Still, recoil doesn't matter too much to me even if it does have kick
The thing is just to square up to the rifle
I got a 5.7 a few months ago. Got to actually shoot it more even now that ammo exists
Squaring up essentially just putting your feet as railroad tracks, left foot just barely in front of the other
Leaning down
I let my sister in law fire it even like little recoil at all
It looks scarier than it feels to fire it
Cause the flash is crazy
Eh.
If you get the chance to fire a 5.7 its great
Wear a hat if you fire it at an indoor range
It launches the brass like 10 feet up
They were landing loke 10-15ft away too
Still not a big sidearm guy. I'd buy one, but it's not my cup of tea
and its expensive
Just a 6 shooter for me.
I made sure i could hold it before i shelled out money for it
My idiot nieces fiance bought a deagle
57 is a big boy
🎵 Poor unfortunate souls. 🎵
There is a reason the deagle is only popular in movies/games
Can you buy a vector?
i have a ak47 
Only "rifle" i have is a pc carbine in 9mm
Do I have to show my gats?
Ugly little thing I say

did you get a spear
You don't like vector???
Vector is ugly but smart
I love Vector design
I don't have much a passion for modern firearms so much
Their designs don't stick to me as much as do older ones
If I was gonna get an old rifle for like historys sake id get like a steyr m95 or a k31 swiss
I appreciate good woodwork
Cause the straight pull bolt
id get m1garand
👍👍👍
Nah m1s cost too much cause everyone wants one
I’ll take the marksman rifle any day if I want too
Not to mention weapons of somewhat historical value
Wooden G3 and FAL?
So if I were to get plastic
When it comes to modern guns, I have a thing for the AR15 and M4/M16. XM5 is also quickly climbing up there for my favorite modern guns as far as visuals
maybe some Japanese rifle too
Probably a M16A2 or so
M16A1 or plain M16
You love m4 design?

But a m95 steyr.. theyre like 300
Some even qualify as antique i think
(But the ammo is insane)
That gun imo is best looking ar
Yea my bro got a chinese type 93 or whatever. Mosin carbine. He got it under 100
The best AR is obviously the L86 
I like the look of the vector
Chinese mockup of a Mosin? Eugh
china copys everyone
When it comes to bullpups I’ve always liked the Tavor the most
Someone here who likes vector 
They took a russian mosin
Lopped off a foot of barrel
And put a spring loaded bayonet on it
So it has a muzzle flash like 2 feet wide

He fired that thing a bench away and i thought i had a round blow up out of battery
I have a love hate relationship with the vector because in games it’s a fucking monster
I'm just attracted to bullpup guns way too much 
I want a bayonet for the smelly because that thing's about a foot and a half long
EM2
I don’t know why the EM2 slightly reminds me of the WA2000
Old and wood
I still remember the little smiley face on the original wa2000s mw2009 model
FN2000 is the greatest bullpup to exist though, easy 20/10 rating
Honestly I like the fn2000
Halo gun is also bullpup
FN2000 isn't ww2
It's in call of duty vanguard 
The Halo Assault Rifle also looks similar to the FN2000, it's silhouette does anyone
I think you mean the EM-2
The FN2000 was like 2001 so it definitely wasn't ww2 
I wonder why they put the F2000 and a CoD AW gun in that game
There's no way a ww2 game has a 2001 gun
Why you think I am always serious
I don't know
That's gotta be fake
Bf4 model
I don't think I have unlocked anything in bf4
Last time I played it I was trying to unlock second sniper but before that I got bored

You know that meme of the guy laughing then turns to crying
No
That's me finding out the 2001 FN FAL is in a WW2 Call of Duty game
Morning
Plus that one gun from AW
Are they in Warzone only or also in the vanguard base game?
It was in Warzone too
Huh
why tho
Cos they be dumb innit
Base game + zombies + warzone
I thought he was joking
Is it a glitch or some ppl hacking? Can barely see them crouched up in the sky picking off everyone
Flunskyyyyy
That’s, interesting
I’m all for alternate WW2 but…. 
What game
Dont forget laser gun in vanguard
Bf2042
"realism"
That’s what we were talking about Hanz
It’s probably people on Casper drones
You can literally ride on the Casper drone into the air
It's a wwii gun trust vanguard
Casper the ghost
Same, I actually enjoyed it but a 2001 FN2000 in WW2
That's where I draw the line
Vanguard was utter shit garbage trash
Werent you talking about f2000
Thank god I wasn’t the one who bought it
How? I tried doing that but the drone goes down and hits the ground
And cant fly it up anymore
Skill issue
cod being garbage is not new ayy
Jk
black ops 4 was the last good cod
That's my opinion on bf2042
But I don't want to harass anyone
Rule 10
Oh, they might’ve patched it
I say that since there was someone in the 2042 channel that said they were doing it earlier
Cats just loves his hot takes
2019

2019 is "good" but not as fun as blops 4
blops 4 is a fun game
Black ops 4 blackout was fun
Vanguard was never bad
Bo4 was worse than vanguard
Multiplayer maps were good but the stupid specialist abilities made me hate the game
CoD gunplay and animations got a massive glowup starting with MW19 but the SBMM is what annoys me
There's a fucking reason bo4 died in 2 weeks
I shit on everyone so I never noticed 
It didn’t
When bo1 is still alive
Blackout was super popular
For 2 weeks
Nah
Every other game of MW2 I get shit on
Idk how I never noticed it in MW19
it didn't die in 2 weeks lol it had many seasons bruh I would know it I bought all the battlepasses
They even updated the map several times

SBMM?
Opinions on BF Mobile?
My guy, paladins battle royal still had plenty of seasons but no one is playing that
Paladins had no battle royale
Yea
no I mean the main game
Yes it did and it still does
blackouts was fun too but they abandoned it for the next cod
It has like 3 players
I played paladins for a bit many many many years ago
It was an overwatch copy
The gunplay was awful I liked the characters and sounds
Realm royal is paladins battle royal
I probably would’ve bought Bo4 if it had a campaign
You could even get on a horse
it matches you with players around your skill levels so you actually have to try
Paladins > OW
What is your opinion
After season 3
Yea I know, that’s how it works on paper (I meant I didn’t know exactly how it worked back when mw19 came out)
MW2 SBMM is horrible but it feels better than Halo Infinites take in sbmm bs
In reality it just makes you feel like you’re never really getting good at the game because you’re constantly being matchmade with your personal kryptonite
Halo infinite forcing me to wait 30 minutes - 1 hour because no one can match my skill 
Even if MW2 didn’t have SBMM I still have a really big problem with it’s maps personally
343i also removed curb dropping and skill jumps (I think they added those again) but my point is that they're purposefully removing my skill
They should remove running
Curb dropping didn't even make the game unfair, it literally made the multiplayer fucking playable
All I ask for from MW2 is a better slide and bunny hops
What about dropping on an enemy from above in halo 5
At least I was able to catch angle campers by suprise with bunny hops
Halo 5? Instantly shit garbage not even worth being acknowledged
It's well deserved hate
Is it like ghost and vanguard of halo Franchise
Halo that feels like titanfall, no fucking story, wtf are those elites, wtf are those grunts, wtf is all of those features, I'm playing titanfall 2?????
Halo 5 felt competitive
The beta looked so good and they fucked up the final product
Ut felt competitive but the competitive scene died faster than my gran
Me who never played any halo game except for CE and that was way past its time
I loved the art direction
Wtf
Spartans looked tough
The armour style didn't fit and the armour just didn't fit the spartans
The spartans in halo 5 are the weakest spartans in halo lore
This was the coolest thing I’ve ever seen in a game and I loved halo 5 search and destroy
Ahhh I need to re-download it
halo 5 multiplayer was fun as hell
its not even cod or titanfall
Halo 5 ‘ultiplayer might have been the best in the series don’t @ me
It really is CoD
It was crash every 5 seconds
Halo 4 was cod
That smg is called smg
you need help if you think that
Same gunplay and movement as cod
theres not a single cod game that plays like it
Only difference is the universe
Sad 🥲
Halo 5 is literally CoD and Titanfall combined 💀
none of the far future cod games play even close to it
It's not Halo at all, the Halo TV show honestly holds closer to what Halo is compared to Halo 5and master chief fucks Arbiter in that
Can you do that left and right without any cool down?
its for sure not like the older games
but the multiplayer portion of it is still great
even if its different
You like halo v?
only the multiplayer
Yes
Halo 5 campaign was the biggest joke to exist
Assassinations ruin the flow of halo
Cap
@rocky copper he also likes halo v
assassinations are poopoo
no shit
assassinations are great fun
Zor you don't even know how to play halo basically, you're opinion is so miniscule
to style on people
That's like advanced warfare 😳😳😳
there is a slight cooldown to the side dodging in halo 5
Yes
There was in AW
Grunt is looking different in this
obviously doesnt count
That makes you look even worse tbf

That many game of halo and you can't get basic movement down, damn
me every time my friends asked me to play ow2 with them
I haven’t even played 1000 games in infinite 😦
Zors taste i games is the worst, halo 5 and OW2 💀
infinite do be kinda stale
z0r platinumed every single soulsborne game
Then you need to go touch grass tbh
Bruh I don’t go outside
Yeah I can tell
guys let's stop fighting, kiss and make up
why go outside when inside exists
I’ll kiss ya
I surprisingly got decent lips
he should hold the L tbh
BUT idk what comes with that legally]
so he prolly wont
Logan Paul is a criminal himself
Zor loves souls game and elden ring become the most goty winning game
Maybe it was planned
It looks like a lose lose situation for Logan tbh but it's funny as hell watching him act like he's innocent
Zor play souls like to balance that
i need to buy elden ring i think but i dont think ill end up playing it more that 15 hours
I would play elden ring but I'd probably break and go into a deep depression 
probably will doze off because it's a snoozefest
boring ass game
I actually really enjoy all the lore shit in elden ring and the way it looks but I suck at those games
I've never played them before
That's why I suck at those games
you can get dark souls 2 and 3 for like 3$ each
give them a try
cure your insomnia
last game i legit fell asleep playing was fallout 3
Kek
Someone mentioned war crimes?
but bet your sweet ass i had a save just to blow up megaton when i got bored
I uh dont think so
Last one I fell asleep in was red dead redemption 2 cause I accidentally played it for 2 days straight and my body just said no 
Crimes of war
BLOW UP MEGATON FOR FUN
That's what makes me unique and quirky
Nicolas Cage is the greatest actor of all time I swear
Nah The Rock is better 
The only time the rock is good is when kevin hart is involved
the rock is a great movie tbh
Nobody could see such a funny coming
You truly are a comedic master
Too quirky for the common brained people, I understand the struggle of understanding my funny
Everyone with regular role should go on a strike and not talk here until mods are paid for moderating
That seems like a lotta effort
only if the payment is jars of gamer sweat
And then who would tell the stupid idiots looking to play where the right channel is?
God knows those guys cant
No but fr why mod this server when there is servers that pay moderators
They must like the community 
I'm sure they'd wet themselves when you tell them you moderated the Battlefield server

I dunno, nothing makes em drier than telling em your a discord moderator
Then how do discord mods get alot of kittens who's age is very much questionable 

They only get em because of the questionable age
I fear this conversation is taking a turn for a mute
I dunno who that is so i’ll just agree
The tall guys from Halo
I feel like a lot of things in halo would be considered tall compared to us
I also dont play halo so im still stuck in the same hole
Yeah the Grunts are even 3-4ft or something like thst
The grunts are the useless enemies who just run away and cry
Please watch a halo lore video you will also love it
i mean the grunts don't even wanna be there but they're essentially forced to be
Maybe one day
Yeah, they're enslaved by the Covenant
It's different for the heretics though, the grunts willingly fighting along side the Sangheili in that group
Oh yeah, of course.
Enslaved for the Banished again though 
because the heretics are the only group that actively fight in their interests
Whats so shocking?
the only thing worse than cage is hearing him talk
I actually feel so bad for the grunts in halo too 😔
luckily gifs are silent
I uh see
Mmm very nice
The Sangheili are cool as hell.
its sexy
okay
Yeah the sangheili really are nice
yes yes they are
Man i outta play some V for the 42 again
As someone who tries to play as the Elites whenever possible in halo, it saddens me to see they haven't returned as playable characters for 343i god awful work
Campaign wise I can now thanks to infinite
I just hope the multiplayer fixes it's problems and it'll be great
Elites had no customization except for a single update in MCC
😔
Infinite is shit but compared to 4 & 5 its great and its the best halo fans have
Guys there’s a game mode in mcc that I used to love what is it called
Halo reach and one side is elites thee other Spartans
You think halo fans want to keep playing halo CE 20 years later
Only the best gamemode in halo
i mean people still play Halo 3
What’s it called
Halo 3 is the most populated on mcc iirc
GRIFBALL
Everyome hates oddball, that's why they force yoh to play it in halo infinite
What’s it called
who actually likes Oddball
343
like seriously i've never talked to a single person that likes it
hold this piece of shit ball and get ganged by the enemy team while the rest of your team have fun
Invasion
Oddball is only good in the competitive scene which 343i thinks is the main thing of halo (spoiler alert, it fucking isn't)
Hold this piece of shit ball
Enemy team basically get wallhacks on you specifically while you're doing this meaning you're always getting ganged up on
Your team doesn't care and is just fucking around
I thought stuff like King of The Hill and CTF was more popular in Competitive Halo.
They are
They still hate oddball but in competitive is where you'll see people like it more than casual
It's all you get in halo infinite competitive scene and we know how they feel about it
Especially since 343i rolled their eyes at the feedback from professional competitive players lmao
i'm sure professional competitive players loved KBM getting aim assist
i'm sure that was real fun for them.
As far as I can tell they still use controller but no one seems to like KBM getting aim assist
I thought it was a joke at first
I wish it was a joke.
because at least if it was, they could remove it after they were told it's not funny.
The KBM situation wouldn't even be bad if the sbmm or mmr whatever the fuck it is just wasn't there

Reddit simulator
You work as a reporter for a small local newspaper. One fine evening, you receive a message from your friend Ada that something mystical is happening in the vicinity of the Santa Monica Psychiatric Hospital. The most hopeless psychos from all the states were brought there! So you take a video camera and decide to check what was really going on t...
$9.99
it wouldn't even be as bad if controller aim assist wasn't so damn strong
343i are approaching halo from the competitive only or fuck off angle which is a huge mistake as everyone has been telling them
I can't actually talk about the controller aim assist since it appears to be broken on my account and doesn't work at all
oh i'm sure this will treat mental illnesses with a lot of respect and be a great representation of how bad mental health care is for a lot of individuals. [clueless]
i mean if they're approaching it from that angle, why are they rolling their eyes at feedback from competitive players
Doesn’t a separate team work on on mcc
i donno i just know it's 343
They did and its confusing seeing everything else they work on however halo infinite definitely took a good turn in the right direction, it's just handled very poorly
do you think my gf will kill me if I get a new rtx 4000 laptop without telling her?
Kill her before she kills you
What direction?
Apart from forge they barely done anything
And forge should’ve been there at launch
can you even match-make forge maps now?
I'm talking about the campaign and overall gameplay
Where’s the progression system
Yes
Campaign felt a bit barebones
i donno how matchmaking Forge maps works
If you invite them
You literally go to the community tab and select one off the servers
There’s no matchmaking for forge
Yes there is, they added it a few weeks ago
that's not matchmaking that's a community browser. which is fine. but that's not the same as matchmaking.
which makes sense
because honestly i don't know how matchmaking for forge maps would work well at all
The server browser is better than matchmaking since sbmm bs is fucking non existent
of course
Nothing like having your match win/lose being decided by a fucking AI
Is it better or worse than MW22
Rather than actually skill based matched making
Worse than MW2 by far
Halo Infinite isn't actually skill based, it just means you win 1 match because the AI wants you to, you lose another because the AI wants you to
that's hilarious
Simply because the ai Feels you should win or lose that'll happen
well i mean nothing is skill based when you have aim assist that strong on both keyboard and mouse and controller
Halo infinite taking away free will
game's literally playing itself

why
Honestly the most stressful game I play
it already has strong aim assist why do you need to cheat
you already have soft aimbot in the form of aim assist.
why do you need to cheat.
next update they will add chatGPT so the game can directly tell you how much of a shitter you are
They still suck with cheats, it's fine but it's extremely obvious who is cheating and who isn't
i see
Alot of the cheater I met just lose their combat capabilities when you get within close range
All they do most of the time is play BTB and snipe you across the map with the AR or pistol which they physically can't do that because the bullets despawn unless you're a cheater hitting constant headshots across the map that is
I see.
I’ve got sweaty palms
@rough harness did you know that young lean is Swedish
I didn’t
cyberpunk lawsuit finally ended
There was a lawsuit?
From 2020
Stock investors said the buggy state was hidden from them so they did a lawsuit
And won
Huh, neat
Wait why does my discord say that's a gif while it also has sound
UwU
Smoked onion & jalapeño chicken with a lime crema gravy to go over some mashed potatoes instead.
ive done jalapeño lime crema on chicken
but never lime crema gravy
do you use the fat from the chicken being cooked to make it a gravy?
Look at FAL
Thats the reason i came across the image
Just trying to find a nice fal pic for here
Wooden FAL is just amazing
They sure are
Looks alot better than the well idk what material it is but it isn't wood 
I assume so, mil sim people really love it though
That's a scar?
Yessir
It looks different to say the least but I think that's a scar from the receiver
The stock looks like it need to be put together, I never understood those stocks
Here is another scar
Like the moss 550 retro i think
They call it the scar 20s apparently
Not much of a scar fan, but i do enjoy this one
The 20s is for 20seconds to fire its sooo slooow
I really enjoy the Scar, I have a sick image of it being bullpup in my head 😭
The only nonruger i have atm is a reeally crappy ppl copy from bernardelli
Found a good fal image
FN FAL is one of the best FN weapons
Definitely one of their best looking ones
It’s sad people have to hack In battlefield,no wonder why they’re trash
Did you see the new ubisoft star wars rumours
Oh no
Apparently the rumours are that it'll be an open world, open galaxy kinda thing like no mans sky but set in he star wars universe
I can't enjoy ubisoft anymore, alot of their titles have lost their identity and they just don't feel the same
I do hope mirage will be good
the only title i look forward to is splinter cell
Remaking the first game
I used to play them alot, they're very good but worried about how ubisoft will handle it
We decided to add lootboxes to the game
Lootboxes to unlock missions when 
Pre-order exclusive mission
Ubisoft open worlds
That company completely ruined the open world genre of games imo
Their only good open worlds atm are ghost recon imo
Far cry is dead, assassins creed is laughable but ghost recon has you in a good spot of enemies and bases around the world, especially in BreakPoint
Playstation VR costing more than the actual console is so funny to me
Its actually more? I thought they were both the same price
Close but not quite
Quite close, but still no cigar
Hmmm
Its actually a ||mosin nagant||
Mp5 with iron sight
Oooh you are so close
After playing tarkov I know which gun is mp5 because it took me 15 minutes to understand how to reload it 
Xenoblade X's open world was so open you could actually get lost
Lmao
I did apparently 5% of the game
Does anyone of you know aircraft with Turrets stil in use today???
except the ground support things
the tu-16??
B52 doesnt i dont think
Or the b2 definitely doesnt
Youd have to dig into the like... "developing" nations like NK or something
There is actually sooo many bullets I couldn't find 7.62 bullet and then I need to find a magazine , first I didn't understand where is the magazine in a mosin nagant I used to think that black portion is part of gun but no that's the magazine in that game you need to drag bullets to the magazine and then put it into the gun
Their museum pieces might

Reloading in tarkov
Reloading in cod is
R
Learning with tarkov
Tarkov is an interesting game but definitely not something i want to play
Not that i could even if i wanted to
What I learned from tarkov is that if you get shot at your sharpness increases by 500%, such realism
Yeah it is pain
Yeah it sounds like one of those games that make things “realistic” by making things unnecessarily difficult
The visual stuff causes pain or problems with my eyes
And it's more annoying than the realism aspect it is trying to touch on
I dont have any revolvers myself. I get the appeal but
Watched quite alot of tarkov stuff but couldn't after a small amount of time cause the visual effects just gave me headaches and kinda strained my eyes
🏜🦅
@unkempt basin
My pc carbine i carry in a revolver case made for one of those big frigin bear shooting revolvers
Hot damn i hope thats all just a joke
Too much sharpness effect is weird but I understand why they did that
Its a breakdown rifle so the barrel goes in the scope pocket, stock/receiver in the main one
One of these?
Yea theyre pretty fun
Has a swap out adapter for Glock mags
Basically a beefed up 10/22 action
Looks like it's gonna show up in a fallout 4 mod
They're pretty accurate too
Ultra low recoil
Chrome moly barrel and then a deadblow tungsten weight in the receiver
I think they did it so it can be suppressed easier
Theres a pistol version which is ironic
Because its a pistol version of a pistol caliber rifle
But... its basically a civilianized smg made short for braces and suppressors
The pistol one is the pc charger
north korea stil uses the 1948 ilyushin il28
The dragunov sniper rifle, is it semi automatic?
Its actually not a dragunov
Yea NK is using stuff museums probably wont fly
thought it was an ak
Lemme get another pic for yall
with a side rail attachment
What kind of sniper rifle is that?
since the scope hovers over the dust cover
Type 81 sr
Oh

Made by drugnov?
apparently my gaming setup is excessive and to much
Is that a plastic stock
Its also not in 7.62x54r
It looks like the cheap plastic you see on kids toys that is supposed to look like wood
i thought it was dragunuv then thought no its just an ak with a side rail and stock
Yeah the wood does have some breaking issues. Supposedly they are fixing that
i carry a AR24
only cus i got done watching a youtube video shorts of a guy showing how to add a scope to your AK
being a provo i kinda need to stay armed
Here is another “not a dragunov”
This one aint a type 81
does anyone know what a provo is
Cheese
Cheese from mo yes
i actually prefer the not wooden AKs
its a fancy term for an irish rebel
They use it on stlouis style pizza
thats my job
Irish rebel? Why say irish twice
You have angered a community 
God the ak community is a bunch of stuck up pricks
True
Its like convincing 1911 people to use a polymer frame
You put an attachment in close proximity of an AK and they'll dox you
Noooooooo you can’t upgrade yer design from the late fucking 40’s!!
I have a 22LR ppk copy and it weighs more than a glock
Loaded
Its fun to shoot cause like it weighs a billion pounds and 22 recoils 0
I might as well take the AK-47 rifle because it doesn't jam? IDK I could be wrong, I'll take the AK sniper rifle too
but heavy thing go boom 
Well the 22 is just novelty
Big boom big bullet
22 is real fun
I'm not great at pistols anyway
It definitely can jam
Ive got a 9 and my 5.7 precious baby
Yeah just go watch a mud test of the ak
It's just more reliable than your cheap glock from Ohio
Turns out having a giant hole is not good for keeping stuff outta the gun
The american made glocks are actually super expensive/rare arent they
You really have to treat your gun like absolute shit to have them jam anyway
Yea glocks austrian
Unless it's the L86, that was designed to jam I swear
Try the pistol my father bought, it look expensive if you look at the brand
Lets not forget the zip 22 too
It also depends on your ammo
Everything american made is expensive to be fair, look at tesla. Keeping it built in america makes those cars unreasonably expensive because they have to actually pay workers 
Ammo with lots of carbon does some work
Christ the zip, I forgot about that
Younger brother found a "glock mariner" which are rare because theyre made in the usa
They were made for some arms deal with "not the usa" thst fell through
Glock mariner is designed to be fired after submerged
M4s get dirty real fast
Fire off 40 rounds and all of a sudden your elbow deep in carbon
As god intended
Rugers are generally affordable
Theyre made in arizona
Some are made in around stlouis
Well the ones we used were Colts and some Belgian one apparently being built in Columbus Georgia
My family inherited 3 rifles from my grandpa
One is a 22 bolt action my brother ran off with not knowing it was broken
Then a 7.65 argentine majsdr
And a 22 tube loading rifle we call "the farm 22" and its horrible
You fire 10 rounds from that and its just soot inside
My 10/22 you could fire for hours and it wont get as bad
Elaborate
Range day comes,
Fire off your 20 rounds,
Repeat that because you need to expend as much ammunition as possible
The pc carbine doesnt get too bad.
But man when i went to the range last i found out i assembled the bolt wrong and it wouldnt freakin load
Come back to clean it
It's just nothing but black inside
Oh god that upper receiver was absolutely dirty as hell
You could clean the damn thing for an hour, inspect it and still find carbon
I never bought an AR after the army. Didnt really feel the need
Especially in the star chamber
Yea they seem like such a pain in the ass to clean
Especially since I never realized they gave me a defective rifle until we got to barricade shit
Found out my bolt face wasn't supposed to look like that
Yea i literally fired 1000 rounds in basic cause they gave me a shit rifle
Instead of me thinking I had jams because of my magazine or improper cleaning
The top wobbled
I ended up qualifying by luck
I could do it with a decent rifle
Closest I got on CCO was 22
my shooting experience is limited to shitty hunting rifles and a couple handguns because california stuffs my freedom 
Not with some 30yo m16 where the top receiver wobbled
Handle carry m16s are what we had
Well we got M4A1s, we thankfully didn't get M16s
Yea they sucked
We were like the last jerks to get full size m16s
2013 ft jackson
We saw other groups with m4s like "aw mannn..."
2022 Ft Benning. Couldn't cut it unfortunately with some mental issues regarding an injury and some setbacks
Well I can't wait how many years until they made a new rifle to replace the M4A1
The quitter camp doesnt help
Oh they won't replace the M4A1 for at least another 10 years
I broke my rib coughing up the black mold in our barracks. So i failed my last run and went to the quitter/fat camp for a week. Scary place
Depression personified
We didn't have a quitter camp.
Just non trainers
Basically we sat around and did shit duty and followed the company
jesus christ that mustve been a violent cough
Like nost of the people were quitters
See, we recycled people wherever.
Ok so story goes
The bathroom/shower above us leaked so the ceiling was moldy.
So i got " bronchitis* " so bad that they called a medical officer in. He looks at the xray and says "holy shit... so... we can call it pneumonia if you want to leave. But we'll call it bronchitis if you want to stay"
Damn that's great.
Oh wow, interesting
People with injuries or coughing didn't get so lucky at our Troop Med Center
So i stayed coughing up a little blood. Recovered a little in the field being away from the mold
Of course not the part where you get sick, but how the medical officer handled it
They basically sucked it up despite any thoughts of going.
But i couldnt pass the run cause i was still flooded with lung crap
We had people with bilateral fractures who wanted to go, and instead were just put on one month leave for healing
so was pneumonia your actual diagnosis 😩
After being with the depression unit for a few days i forced through it and barely passed push-ups
One month doesn't do shit
Hello I'm back from the dead
Ithe sucky part about the extra quitter unit was like assholes in shape that could do it and didnt.
And then people with the heart to win but broken beyond able to overcome
Like some guy who wanted to be in and like broke something by dumb luck or stuff like that
Just happens
Yeah, I got my shit banged up real bad, decided to stick with the program for another 2 weeks, try and let it pass
Fuck that shit. Damn hurt like hell
Had to get a couple battle buddies to lift me off the ground from a sitting position and help me across the damn bay to my bunk during a couple incidents
@carmine timber
the mental block kills a lot of capable peole but like it sucks when people who want it just get hosed
We had one like have cancer and like... welp sorry
I was on profile the entire time and by the time I got off profile, still some lasting pain, I lied to the doctor we had the 8 mile ruck
No amount of heart is gonna change that
I ended up battle buddying another guy to Winder that morning, by luck.
The ones that pissed me off were like the female ones on crutches the whole time
And then pass like... right ok
Must be nice
I went in to the doctor for a cough like hey im sick!
"Yehhh whateva"
Do that 4 times
Oh, the ones who went in for something very minor, got stuck on crutches even though they could actually do it?
-im sick "heres cough drops"
-im sick! "Zpak?"
-im sick from black mold asshole
"More coughdrpps? Liar?"
-IM COUGHING BLOOD
Yeah that really fucking sucks
Man in regular army once this fucker.
Goes in ahead of me
"Aw geez sarg.. its lime a 8 out of 10 in pain"
Me "uhh like 5? Iuno"
First guy wanted to get out oof a run
I had a fractured foot apparently
Yeah they told us you could have a fracture, not feel a damn thing
The bs doesnt end after basic
Yea i walked on a broken foot for a week and the docs like "happens a lot"
An 7 or above was basically "You laying on the ground crying" pain
They had said
And I definitely had some 7+ moments
you can, i’ve fractured my shins multiple times from bashing my shins into people and never found out until i got a bad one and definitely felt it
my shins feel like rocky mountains
Blue one looks nice
My case was a bilateral high grade stress injuries during the first week, stuck with it,
Week 3 or 4,
Left leg turned into a fracture
So that sucked
I learned quick that i had to double my pain number to get taken seriously
Cause my pain tolerance is weird
Pain got to the point where I said "fuck it" because if I went through training again, no way in hell it ain't happening again
And I am not having that sort of pain again
Yea you reach a point and thats about it
what were you doing that would fracture your leg?
Army busted my hip and broke my foot, tore both shoulders up, back pain too and of course hearing
The most stupid thing imaginable, running.
running and jumping?
Yea runnin around sometime all it takes
We marched so much in my unit my feet just fractured
Hope you recover
It also didn't help that I have an anxiety problem that ended up going into overdrive while I was there
Like after my foot healed from being broken a year later it had class 3 stress fractures
Army basic really guilts you into being afraid to seek medical care
i have had a fracture in each leg from muay thai both from going shin to knee on people and I can’t run without feeling pain so its a good idea to not do that anymore. Doesnt help that my meniscus practically is gone as well
They threaten that the more you go get medical the further youre behind
One not-ds was like
"You failed cuz you went to medical too much"
(He failed DS school)
I said "i was coughing blood..."
so you guys were just doing workouts straight up, never had conditioning days for your ligaments?
Like I tried to get healthy early and they ignored me til i had pneumonia
We typically had active recovery days the day before something big like the ACFT or something
But since I was on profile,
I had to attend PT in the mornings
And missed that sort of stuff
Army basic is pretty hard like full on physical for 3-4 weeks especially
I musta lost 15-20 pounds
Eating like a horse too
sounds like a great way to get your guys limping for the rest of their lives 😭
I saw this fat kid go from 30min runs to 14
It's the army. They don't give a shit.
He was my guy to beat. He ended up goin all out
Damn that's awesome
weight training too?
Not a ton really
or just push ups and such
Runs pushups squats marches like some obstacle stuff, pullups...
I can not to pullups at all
Only weight training there was, was stuff in the ACFT and active recovery
Maybe stuff after chow as well
We had kettlebells
After chow was pull ups
i cant do pull ups for shit either
And I for the life of me couldn't do them
They especially made an emphasis on pull ups for our company
only maniacs can do that shit lol
airborne rangers are BAD ASS
Nonsense, place for everybody, no matter how tall you are.
Unless it's tankers
Then yeah
Dont
6'8
Jesus fuck
according to the military its too tall 😦
Okay yeah
have you tried applying?
That's pretty tall
yeah i was told i was TOO TALL

You'd sure as hell be able to pass the grenade course
LOL
That's for sure
yeah
mans would get domed by a sniper tho
Not unless he was RE
Rear Echelon
Support types
But yeah no I can't think of any place for a tall ass guy like you
I don't even think we have uniforms that big
And shooting barricades would be a bit small
unless they need a 3rd on the pickup basketball game 
i apologize i had to make a basketball joke 
I guess if I have enough money, I'll buy the SVK marksman rifle to see how good the gun is
Depends
