You can still set the game to older style controls

You don’t fly a B52 in contested airspace at all tbf

Average strategic bomber moment

#

Wait they added the fucking 52H?

#

What the fuck

#

That’s comedic that they put the ‘modern’ package

#

Bro could literally mount fucking 24 cruise missiles

No wait it’s less Forgor. 20

It’s 6 external per wing

Ok I’m gonna be real here

#

It’s fuckin A2A

#

That’s the reality of aircraft

#

If anything warthunder is wayyyyyyyy more lenient than real air combat. Missiles are that cracked

misty cove
#

but they are saclos guided

#

and the ai has literal aimbot

#

its not even because war thunder is arcadey theyre literaly just coded like that

#

🥀

round sentinel
#

So they are still more lenient than the real thing

soft jay
#

Warthunder fans when they realise game isn't realistic because it would be completely unplayable

misty cove
#

i just wish the ai didnt track thru terain

It's like with people who want realistic warfare games

Even Arma is lenient when it comes to actual grunt simulation

Arma you can tune tho

#

The only thing wrong with it at this point is roland missiles bugging out and your client thinking they hit a tree so it stops rendering them, so you can't see the smoke trail and know you are being engaged

#

Other than that this is the most fun I've had playing war thunder in years

round sentinel
#

Even DCS falls victim to that

Tho that’s way more on the realistic side

random 22s- harbor freight light, chinese shotgun- harbor freight light, the stupid 300blk bullpup AR he's building- you already know

everything he owns gets that light except for his one AR he built sober that he actually wants to work

true mist
#

looking to change my zpap setup a little, any opinions on whether i should get an mlok lower with a handstop or if i should just get a new hogue handguard lower (and leave it bare)

#

for context this is what it looks like now, which has been kinda fun, but its way too wide to use comfortably without a foregrip, and the tapeswitch location is prone to white light NDs

#

so im moving to a barrel mount for the light and a regular tailcap (most likely converting to momentary only)

proven hearth
#

Get a jmac handguard, and upgrade from that streamlight

#

Just do yourself the favor and get an arisaka/malkoff prebuilt

What kind of lights are you guys running

#

Modlite, cloud defensive, surefire?

round sentinel

surefire mainly

blazing temple

Surefire but I think most people would say better arisaka/modlight/cd for rifle

#

All my handguns are surefire

I have a twin zbolt setup for a rifle, and the modlite/ zbolt LED set for a pistol

silk rapids

Gotcha

round sentinel

id argue the Surefire is a bit more durable, but they are all p comparable

proven hearth
#

Modlite, malkoff, and surefire is what i tend to go to.

#

Very big fan of malkoff though honestly

silk rapids
#

I’m using a mixed bag, mostly surefires for rifle and pistols, at least 2 stream lights for pistol and 2 for rifles, a modlite and a cloud defensive rein

Bro really just slapped everything he saw on Amazon and went yeah I built that shit

proven hearth
slate iron
#

its meant for mainly hunting so nothing too much on there got a magnification setup for further out had to put it further up so charging handle can be grabbed with ease the wire isnt hanging anymore i did get that mounted and as for the bipod foregrip it was cheap and has the two features i needed so for a budget build it works

#

i can take it off wall mount to get a better picture if you like

Please no more exposure to it lol

The feyachi light and $30 magnifier is the icing on the cake

Understandable even I know it’s not optimal but it does the job I ask of it

the job in question: sitting on the wall and looking stupid

#

I dont think you even understand how to properly set up a rifle if this is an indication of you "building"

slate iron
#

I plan on getting better stuff on it later on but this is rough outline and no job in question is to hit a deer within 100 yards accurately

round sentinel
#

that optic wont do that

slate iron
#

It already hits mark at 90

round sentinel
#

hell it might not even last 50 rounds

slate iron

Already but 100 through and it’s lasting just fine

round sentinel
#

doubtful

slate iron
#

Doubt it all you want no reason to lie if it hadn’t I would have taken it off already

proven hearth
#

Upgrade the optic to something decent a $150 holosun will work, next time actually mount it on the upper, not the handguard. Don't cheap out a weapon light, dont rely on garbage grip pods for stable shooting, ditch the stock for something thats not prone to hanging up, get a suppressor. Hell there's so much wrong i can't even list it all

round sentinel

'no reason to lie'

You've been given sound advice. Take it or dont idrc you'll stop talking here in the next week and I'll forget you ever existed

suppressors are next to impossible to get where I’m at so that’s a no go but the rest of advice will be heeded when able just not possible right now but shoot me message with better stuff to put on it and I’ll grab what I can when I can and I’ll come back with updates

throw a streamlight and a holosun dot

golden marlin
#

Suppressors whatever but like you need a better optic you need to actually mount it on the receiver, not the handguard

this

golden marlin
#

Like those gripods

#

Break all the time

proven hearth
#

Pass on the streamlight imo. Had too many have flickering issues personally

#

Others people milage has varied from mine though

scenic jetty
#

never heard that problem before but yea there is other options out there

slate iron
#

Ok what about an optic with some magnification like 1-4x cause like I said mainly for hunting

proven hearth
#

I had 4, all of them flickered drastically when firing. Just not a fan after my own personal experience with them

golden marlin
proven hearth
#

Look at a pa nova acss 1-6 if you dont want to spend alot

golden marlin
#

They are actually very beefy optics

#

The 3x

Or that ye

And they're like 200 bucks

slate iron

Ok I’ll look

proven badger
golden marlin
#

I've had mine for years. I throw it around all the time

scenic jetty
#

those prisms are nice hell the 5x is pretty nice as well

proven hearth
#

I was thinking nova for the 1-6 capabilities for hunting but a 3x would work

proven badger
#

I have a nova and it would definitely be fine for hunting

proven hearth
#

I have one aswell. Pretty nice optic for $300

scenic jetty
#

my main rifle i just went with an acog for that

proven hearth
#

My main rifle has an exps, but it's also a night vision set up

golden marlin
#

Just 1 is a Vudu 3-9

#

I may swap that to the acr now

slate iron
#

Ok so cause I’m a broke bish what about monstrum

golden marlin
#

No

#

No

#

They are very very cheaply made and it's very obvious

#

The one that a buddy of mine had for his first build. That thing barely holds zero

#

He swapped that out now for a vortex

proven hearth
#

If you cant afford a PA prism for $200. Save up

#

Same with the nova.

#

Cant afford $300?

#

Save.

slate iron
#

Is that the PA 1-6

proven hearth
#

That's the classic. Wouldnt.

#

Just go to primary arms actual site and look.

#

Plenty of youtubers have an affiliate link that will save you money and should come with a free 30mm mount.

golden marlin
#

Please go to their website

#

At least if you go to their website you can at least use discount codes

slate iron
#

What about the gen 3 slx 3x32mm

#

It’s a prism

golden marlin
scenic jetty
golden marlin
#

Personally the optic I have on my ak

#

Get that one

#

If you're trying to ball on a budget

#

It's 3x

#

So it's got decent enough magnification

#

To suit your needs

#

And you can put a red dot on top of it if you need to

#

And it's like 200 bucks

#

With a mount

thats pretty much how i have my g17 but i have a rmr instead and no extension on it

#

also the slide release i still have the factory one

Tried one, wasnt my thing

lunar marsh
silk rapids
slate iron
#

ok so couple questions which is more durable in your opinion mlok or rail mounted grips and thoughts on grip and bipod setups like an angled fore grip in normal spot then a bipod on end

lunar marsh
#

lol you’re not old enough for that yet

silk rapids
#

hahahah

lunar marsh
#

Well played

slate iron
#

and need some stock suggestions

#

preferably geared towards a left handed shooter

proven hearth
#

Mlok grips will sit cleaner on the rail. Honestly doubt you'll get enough use out of a bipod. And b5 sopmod, Bravo, magpul acs-l, basically anything other than the mft.

silk rapids
#

the new magpul stock is decent

proven hearth
#

When it comes to magpul i like the acs-l alot. More storage is always nice

slate iron
#

what about the magpul afg-2 for fore grip

proven hearth
#

I dont personally like angled grips. If its comfortable for you though then sure.

I like doing a split grip, and then chop off whatever material i dont need.

im a big fan of their handstops, simple and i get em for 25-30 bucks a piece

Speaking of wml's actually just got my new modlite pl350 in. First impressions are really nice, gonna go this weekend and get some time behind it

Whatever you do remove the grip-pod and destroy it violently

silk rapids

most of it is on a barricade now

lunar marsh
#

Not even that. We destroyed all of ours during a JRTC rotation pre OIF certification

slate iron
silk rapids
#

they are flimsy as shit

slate iron
#

ok so what about the mvg vert grip from magpul

lunar marsh
#

The paint is wearing in good finally after a couple thousand rounds. Doesn’t look too fresh and cartoonish now

slate iron
#

and what about a good flashlight for mounting or is my cheap one ok

lunar marsh
#

Like 24oz. Baffles don’t start till about midway. Fairly hollow portion that just encapsulates the barrel

Welcome to the world of quality equipment

slate iron

how much did you pay for it as barebones

lunar marsh
#

The stock rifle was $1200

slate iron
#

see thats double what i payed my rifle was a cheap starter since its my first

#

didnt want anything too grand for first one

#

went really cheap for first pistol too it was a hi point 40 cal

lunar marsh
#

Nothing wrong with that but recommend saving up for quality accessories that will hold up and can be transferred to a higher quality rifle down the line

slate iron
#

understandable the lights im looking at is 474

#

im looking at the 3x that yall recommended and getting mlok vertical and the magpul carbine stock and those 3 is 412

#

The light on my A300 has lasted me the last 12 years and been on several builds including about 8 years on my patrol rifle. Survived several good vehicle collisions lol

slate iron

i got the multimode one that has ir and regular illumination

well im getting havent gotten it yet gotta save up for a bit first

lunar marsh

I wouldn’t worry about spending the extra on the IR version unless you plan to drop the thousands on NODs in the future

Anyway. Pl350 came in the other day

#

Actually really like it so far

round sentinel
#

Tho i have a zbolt head on it

#

Only complaint is how flexible cheap the switch piece is

#

And it doesn’t have a ton of tension to engage unlike surefire

proven hearth
#

I ordered a new head for it so i can use the plhv2 on my 58-M-Mod.
i actually like that it's a middle ground between a streamlight tlr1 and surefire x300. Though i only have the sample size of one so idk how consistent these switches are

#

Ordered a malkoff HTL v3 though for it

round sentinel
#

Based

#

Also high output heads struggle with this body

#

The engagement contact don’t enjoy the higher output running thru them

#

The LEP style heads will get flicker issues

#

The HTL v3 is only like 33k candela. Far lower than the 55k for the plhv2. If it gives me issues i can just swap back

Honestly the only thing I’ve been playing recently is Satisfactory and some small horror games or stuff here and there

A few of my buddies always try to get me to get satisfactory but i dont really think id enjoy that style of game anymore

That’s fair. I just enjoy how chill and ‘your own pace’ it is

I’ve always liked automation games so

Got my fiancée into it, so we’ve been playing a lotta coop

I get that, going at your own pace on games like that can be a relaxing experience for those into it im sure. I think alot of it nowadays is i just like shooting shit in games, cant be like mindless shooting games or any of that though i like being punished for doing something wrong

Oh yeah def, I’m just into horror survival for that experience kek

Are there any muzzle devices worth considering for my ZPAP M70 other than a can? or should i just leave the slant brake, I dont want an obnoxious gun with a crazy brake, but wouldnt mind upgrading even if its just short term

yeah the zpap is 14x1 lh so it should fit

Doesn’t that PSR suppressor wreck groupings? I half watched nine-holes new video on it

but that rifle was also like $20,000

the goal is like well what if they could make something close to that, drop all the shit that makes it incredibly expensive

and sell it as a commercial product (prediction was hillary was going to win and we'd be in the ban times)

i can get an XC for like 3 grand

I'm about to start selling shit to buy an SP5 so I don't feel so guilty spending 3k on a gun lmao

the issue with buying the sp5 is its just the begining. 600 for the stock, 700+ for the kac handguard, optic, etc

when you throw a can on it you could hit 6-7k especially if you FRT it

luckily have a 9mm PCC can just laying around atm

The amount of spending on that thing is endless. Even more than an AR it seems if you want authentic HK parts

gotta pay the price to play that game unfortunately

i really regret not buying a sp5 when they were $2500 last year

thats the other issue i had with my clone, i was gonna spend so much money on it it felt wrong doing it on a turkish clone lmao
