Main Military Weapon of Your Country: Part 12

[Bezombia]

First thing you shouldn't do something specifically to get "approval" of a certain poster(s).

Secondly what exactly is wrong with 40mm Buck?

lower capacity/velocity is possible. 40X51 vs 30X100.

Again what's wrong with 40mil buck? It serves just fine in it's role, and there's really no reason to go smaller and longer.

What would a 40mm buckshot grenade's purpose be? It doesn't have one.

If you're team is going in to a building and you're only weapon is your grenade launcher, blowing yourself up isn't an option.

you use your cartridges I''ll use mine.
I like the 30X100 better. And the case capacity is higher. 10838 mm cubed, vs 8922 mm cubed also this is just for the Grenade round, I also plan on having the shotgun accommodate up to 5,1/2" shells.

Question time. Does anyone know any non painful way to make the calculators on this site give me data in metric?
http://www.border-barrels.com/ The best I can do now is painfully convert 50 meter increments into feet, plug them into the calculator custom range field, write the results down and convert them back to metric.

Ever heard of grenades? I hear they're better at killing anything more efficiently.

Three feet is a meter.

Well not really but it's close enough to just use that.

no
3 feet is a yard
meter =/= yard
it may seem like an inconsequential difference, but it actually makes quite a lot of difference sometimes

[Purpelia]

That's not the issue. Converting is the easy part.
The issue is that the entire table is generated using feet. See what I mean:
Table

Notice that it starts from 0 at 50 feet increments. Thus it is useless to me and I must use converted metric values (see far right corner, that's 700m) and thus can only get one row at a time. You see, I want the table in my writeup to be in clean good looking 50 meter increments. Not 50 feet increments converted to funky decimal numbers.

It's using yards not feet.
That might be messing up your calculations.

The feet thing was a typo on this page only. What's messing with me is that if I just converted the values the header would not look like instead of 0 - 50 - 100 - 150 but like 45.72 - 91.44 - 137.16. Which is plain fugly.

[Imperializt Russia]

That 4.5m of difference, in a 50m increment, is not unworkable.
Just transfer the values.

[Puzikas]

I have basically run out of things to say and topics to cover.

So I guess I'll just start art-ing, unless I need to immediately cover or explain or weigh in on something.

[Bezombia]

How would one fire the L85/6/22/98/etc. left handed?

[Imperializt Russia]

How would one fire the L85/6/22/98/etc. left handed?

You'd train to fire it right-handed.
Or lose an eye.

For capping fools in snowy hills.



Model 49

Caliber: 9.5x75mm

Range: 1000 yards

Rate of Fire: Bolt Action

Magazine Capacity: 5

First designed in 1949 to be adopted by the Fordorsian Military, it was later used by the Fordorsian Rural Guard after it was rejected by the military due to the overly large cartridge it used being unsuitable to modern warfare. The Rural Guard made requests about altering the rifle to their specifications after they found the rifle to be bulky and heavy. The stock of the rifle was then shortened considerably and a new stock was developed, designed to be used on rifles fitted with a telescopic sight.
The Model 49 was adopted in 1950 by the F.R.G and still sees use today, as well as finding it's way into the hands of some marksmen in the police and the military.

Or lose an eye.

Pretty normally, I believe. You just move your cheek further back for the obvious reasons.

Showing the posture.

L129A2 should obviously be the new service rifle.
