Selected category: length.
Definition and details for chain (Gunter or Surveyor):
Chain (Gunter or Surveyor) is a traditional unit of length used by surveyors equal to about 20.11 meters. Gunter chain was introduced by the English mathematician Edmund Gunter (1581-1626) in 1620.
Definition and details for caliber (bore):
Caliber (cal) is used to express the diameter of the gun barrel (bore). This unit is equal to inch. So 0.38 caliber is referred to a gun with a bore 0.38 inches. Usually when caliber measurements are spoken the decimal point is omitted. So "38 caliber" refers to 0.38 inches. | weapons_science |

The Air Force has selected Tucson's Raytheon Missile Systems to build the next-generation small guided bomb - a $450 million initial contract.
The Air Force announced the selection Monday of Raytheon's design for the GBU-53/B for the Small Diameter Bomb II program. The company beat out a team of Boeing - the lead contractor on the first version of the bomb - and Lockheed Martin.
For once, cheers were the order of the day at the defense contractor's Tucson facility. Raytheon chose Huntsville, Ala., for a new missile plant last month. The company laid off 225 employees here this spring after three major programs were cut.
Raytheon officials said Monday they could not comment on whether the bomb program would mean added jobs at the Tucson plant.
Rep. Gabrielle Giffords said Tuesday that a company official said the contract is expected to mean 300 additional jobs in Tucson. The company employs about 12,000 here.
Although the initial contract is worth $450 million, the program could run into the billions in the long term.
"Raytheon proved we can provide the warfighter a low-risk, affordable solution that meets their needs," said Raytheon Missile Systems President Taylor Lawrence said in a press release.
The GBU-53/B is an air-launched, precision-strike standoff weapon that will enable the Air Force's new F-35 stealth fighter to strike moving and fixed targets in adverse weather conditions. The bomb fits into the aircraft's internal weapons bays, to preserve its stealth capabilities.
Concerned about keeping quality reporting alive in Tucson?
A metro area of nearly 1 million deserves a vital & sustainable source of news that's independent and locally run.
Support TucsonSentinel.com with a contribution today!
The bomb will also be used on the F-15, the Defense Department said. The Small Diameter Bomb is a joint Air Force/Navy program.
The GBU-53/B uses millimeter-wave radar, uncooled imaging infrared and semiactive laser to seek out its targets.
"Raytheon's innovative use of an uncooled IIR seeker met all the warfighter's requirements and reduced the weapon's total life-cycle cost and logistics footprint," said Lawrence.
Raytheon expects to begin delivering the bombs in 2013.
Boeing began production of the first generation Small Diameter Bomb in 2006, when it was first used in combat. | weapons_science |

When loaded with a 130 grain bullet it has a sectional density of .242 that will positively punch a nice size hole all the way through a deer.
The old 30-30 winchester and the 7.62x39 soviet have the same recoil as the 6.8 Rem SPC and are well respected woods deer cartridges. The bullet diamater of .308 and about that for the 7.62. This will put a bigger hole in the deer at the cost of a little less velocity when compared to the 6.8.
The 45 colt is a revolver round and again has the same recoil as the 30-30, 6.8, and 7.62x39. Unfortunately it's velocity is so low that for the same recoil the 30-30 and 6.8 are ranked as the better deer rounds. The 45 has only about 57% the effectiveness of the others according to the Optimum Game Weight (OGW) formula.
Of those the .357 magnum seems to have been a missed gem that I might have gone for. Normally this is a revolver cartridge. But when fired through a rifle it achieves a higher velocity but one that is still very moderate compared to regular rifle velocities for low recoil. It's recoil is the same as a .223 which is 66% of a .243. At it's max loading a 180 grain bullet will exit a rifle at 1,550 fps. At 100 yards it has a speed remaining of 1,280 fps. At this speed it has about the same performance as the .223.
As I was doing a little more research on the .357 I came across the following article that gives some additional thoughts.
It appears that cor-bon makes some higher powered loads that can up the normal max velocity for a .357 used with a carbine rifle. Also, Jeff Quinn mentions that youth can also practice with more mild and less expensive .38 special ammunition that fit the same rifle. Plus Jeff recommends what looks like a very nice Winchester lever action rifle.
So I think that I might have gone for a .357 carbine if I was making the same choice now

Along with those at Fort Denison they represent the only remaining in situ armaments of the extensive harbour fortification system originally consisting of Dawes Point, Kirribilli and Mrs Macquarie's Point Batteries, and Forts Denison and Macquarie. Other cannon of smaller calibre from Dawes Point Battery are believed to be currently at Fort Denison and Bare Island. Six and 12-pounder cannon from the period 1788-1818 are also believed to exist at Cockatoo and Garden Islands which are probably provenanced to Dawes Point in the period before 1857. The 42-pounder cannon at Dawes Point are therefore a subset of the former armament of the site throughout its history as a defensive position. Technologically they are indicative of the final phase of artillery developments in the mid-19th century employing the projection of cannon balls, they are 42 Pounder Smooth-bore guns, manufactured just prior to the introduction of exploding shells. The cannon display adaptation for the insertion of friction tubes another technological innovation of the mid-19th century. The cannon are an integral part of the site as a defensive installation from 1791-1925.
Movable / Collection
Builder/Maker: Walker Armaments
Construction Years: 1843 - 1845
Physical Description: The five 42 Pounder Smooth-bore guns, c1850 cannon from the Dawes Point Battery are positioned in Dawes Point Park. Four of the gun barrels are in gravel plots in the approximate position of the outer ring of guns at the Battery. One is on a replica of the gun carriage positioned on the original emplacement sited into the Harbour.

Historic Notes and Themes
Historical notes: The five 42 Pounder Smooth-bore guns, are the only armaments of the former Battery currently on site. They were cast at the Walker armaments foundry at Tipton in England, one bearing the date 1843 and the other four 1844. The cannon were installed in the semi-circular (upper) battery as part of Major Barney's works from 1855-1859, in response to the Crimean War threat. The five 42-pound cannon were probably installed in 1857. Their teak carriages bear the date 1856, however that is a manufacture date and it is known that they had not arrived by the time of Denison's report to the Executive Council in November 1856. Circular tracks for each was set into the bedrock in order to swivel each cannon about a 180o angle. The gun carriages were centred on a pivot, unlike the majority of cannon installed at this time at Fort Macquarie, Fort Denison, Mrs Macquarie's Point and Kirribilli, which moved on a pivot located at the front of each carriage.
Historical significance: Association with Dawes Point Battery - a major element in Sydney Harbour defences in the 19th century. Made for the defence of the colony during the Crimean War. Recognised as part of some of Sydney's first defences.
Aesthetic significance: The cannon are located in Dawes Point Park which is an integral part of Sydney Cove and the setting of the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge.
Social significance: Recognised by many Australians as part of The Rocks and therefore first settlement. Increased appreciation for history and heritage.
Research significance: The cannon have been modified, the wick holes decreased in diameter to facilitate the insertion of friction tubes. They are some of the last smooth-bore guns manufactured just prior to the introduction of exploding shells. The cannon are manufactured at a time of changing gun technology and thus hold significant research potential into changing warfare and armaments.
Intact assessment: Cannon barrels intact, one remounted in original position. Historic, aesthetic, social and technical values are retained.
Physical condition: The cannon barrels are in good condition. The original teak carriages are in need of conservation and have been placed in storage. They carriages are not to be reinstated.

PM Modi to commission INS Vikrant: Prime Minister Narendra Modi will hand over the first indigenous aircraft carrier 'INS Vikrant' to the Navy on Friday. It is the largest ship ever built in the maritime history of India.
INS Vikrant has been developed with indigenous state-of-the-art automatic equipment built at a cost of Rs 20,000 crore at the Cochin Shipyard. During the event, the Prime Minister also unveiled a"new naval flag (mark), which will be in line with the rich Indian maritime heritage, leaving behind the colonial past".
Vice Chief of the Indian Navy, Vice Admiral SN Ghormade had earlier said that INS Vikrant will contribute to ensuring peace and stability in the Indian Pacific and Indian Ocean region.
The vice chief said that INS Vikrant will start in November, which will be completed by mid 2023. The MiG-29 jets will be operated from the warship for the first few years. The commissioning of INS Vikrant will be an important step towards India's self-reliance in the defense sector.
With the entry of Vikrant into service, India will join a select group of countries like the US, UK, Russia, China and France that have the capability to indigenously design and build an aircraft carrier.
The warship has been built using indigenous equipment and machinery supplied by India's leading industrial houses as well as over 100 Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).
Along with Vikrant, India will have two aircraft carriers in service, which will strengthen the country's maritime security. Designed by the Warship Design Bureau (WDB), an organization of the Indian Navy, and built by Cochin Shipyard Limited, a public sector shipyard under the Ministry of Ports, Shipping and Waterways, the indigenous aircraft carrier is named after its illustrious predecessor 'Vikrant' of India's first aircraft carrier. Who played an important role in the 1971 war. Vikrant means victorious and brave. The foundation of the Indigenous Aircraft Carrier (IAC) was laid by formal steel cutting in April 2005. A special type of steel is needed to make an aircraft carrier, which is called Warship Grade Steel (WGS).
Taking forward the indigenization drive, the warship-grade steel required for manufacturing the IAC was successfully manufactured by Steel Authority of India Limited (SAIL) in collaboration with the Defense Research & Development Laboratory (DRDL) and Indian Navy. After this, the ship's shell (framework) progressed and in February 2009, the construction of the ship's pathan (nautal, keel) started i.e. the process of building the warship proceeded.
The first phase of shipbuilding was completed in August 2013 with the successful launch of the ship. The 262-m-long and 62-m-wide INS Vikrant can cover a range of 18 nautical miles to 7,500 nautical miles.
The ship has approximately 2,200 rooms, designed for approximately 1,600 crew members. It includes special cabins to accommodate women officers and sailors. The aircraft carrier, designed with a very high degree of automation for machinery operation, ship navigation and survivability, is equipped with state-of-the-art equipment and systems.
The ship has a complete state-of-the-art medical complex with the latest medical equipment facilities, including premier modular OTs (Operation Theatres), emergency modular OTs, physiotherapy clinics, ICUs, laboratories, CT scanners, X-ray machines, dental complex, isolation wards and Telemedicine facilities are included.
It is capable of operating an air wing consisting of 30 aircraft, including indigenously built Advanced Light Helicopters (ALH) and Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) besides MiG-29K fighter jets, Kamov-31 and MH-60R multi-role helicopters. The weight of this vessel is 45,000 tons.

piece. The bolt, in which is housed the firing pin and its spring, travels
inside the barrel extension. The extractor is a short spring claw mounted
in the top of the bolt. At the instant of discharge, the bolt lock
positioned in the receiver has its two upper locking teeth securely in the
underside of the bolt. The barrel, barrel extension and the bolt are
therefore securely locked.
The author and his Standard wartime Commercial C96 [S/N 39xxxx],
Stone Lodge Range
[before the pistol was banned and the Range was closed down]
As the bullet starts down the barrel, the rearward action
of the gas pressure forces the locked barrel, barrel extension, bolt and
lock, to travel straight backwards over some two-tenths of an inch.
Grooves in the barrel extension permit it to travel a short distance in
its mount in the receiver. The energy transmitted through the head of the
bolt to the hammer, throws the hammer back on its axis until it is caught
in the full-cock notch and is then held in place by the sear.
After this short travel, the lower rear projection (or tongue), of the
locking block enters a rear recess machined out of the receiver, and under
pressure of the coiled mainspring below, which has been compressed by the
cocking motion, the claw of the coupling directly above the trigger in the
receiver, pulls the locking block down, out of its two niches in the
underside of the bolt. At this point the barrel is stopped in its rearward
action when the block comes in contact with the receiver.
The bolt continues its rearward travel in its guide in the barrel
extension. The spring extractor in the bolt head pulls the empty case out
of the chamber and carries it back until it strikes against a projection
on the receiver which extends up into the bolts way. This ejects the empty
case up through the top of the weapon.
As the bolt moves back it compresses the recoil spring which is situated
between the closed head of the bolt and the abutment which locks into the
barrel extension. This stores up energy to return the bolt to the closed
position on the forward movement of the action.
As the empty case is ejected, the spring inside the magazine pushing
against the magazine follower forces the next cartridge up into line with
the bolt. At the same time as the bolt moves back, the disconnector
mounted directly above and behind the trigger in the receiver is forced
back; and it in turn forces the sear lever around the trigger to prevent
full automatic fire. The short powerful recoil spring drives the bolt
forward and the bolt picks up the cartridge in line and chambers it. The
extractor slips over the extracting groove in the cartridge case.
Exploded view of a C96
When the head of the bolt reaches the face of the chamber,
pressure from the coil mainspring is transmitted through the plunger at
its forward end up to force the claw of the coupling to turn forward and
force the barrel assembly forward to complete the firing position. While
this is happening, the tongue of the locking block is forced up the ramp
on top of the receiver and swings the locking block upwards until its
teeth engage with their recesses in the underside of the bolt to complete
The trigger cannot disengage the disconnector until this locking motion is
completed. The point of the firing pin is withdrawn behind the face of the
bolt by a coil spring around its length. When the trigger is pressed, it
engages the disconnector above and behind it which lifts the sear from its
notch in the hammer. This permits the compressed mainspring to rotate the
hammer on its axis and send it forward to drive the flying firing pin
forward against the primer of the cartridge seated into position in the
When the last cartridge has been fired, a projection on the magazine
follower (the platform on which the cartridges rest inside the magazine
housing), is forced up by the magazine spring in line with the bolt,
holding the bolt open.
The action of the breech bolt is extremely rapid, due to its relatively
light weight, when compared to other self-loading pistols. The firing
action seems rather violent to the firer as a consequence

All models of the Broomhandle are equipped with a manual
thumb safety at the left rear of the receiver. This safety may be applied
when the hammer is in either the cocked or de-cocked.
On Broomhandle's manufactured prior to 1930, the
safety is set by pressing the hammer down with the thumb of the pistol
hand, and raising the safety lever with the thumb of the other hand. On
those manufactured after 1930, including the 1930 model, there is a
improved universal safety lock. This may be operated by the thumb of the
pistol hand alone. The lever must be pushed until it clicks into the
correct notch. When it is at safe (in the vertical position), the letter
'S' can be seen on the lever. When the lever is down and the weapon is
ready to fire, the letter 'F' can be seen on the lever.
This improved universal safety lock safes the hammer by completely locking
it with a lug to stop it from striking the firing pin. This allows the
hammer to be lowered in absolute safety under all conditions

Bloodborne is a fantastic game. This is undeniable. It’s graphically beautiful, artistically dark and creepy, the combat is fluid, the difficulty insanely high but not unfairly so, and it manages to create a powerful, lore-driven world without any characters or narrative advancements to speak of (at least in the early game). But by far its greatest feature is the kirkhammer: a weapon that is a hammer and a sword at the same time.
A key mechanic of the game is transforming your main weapon; in your right hand is this main weapon, and it can be wielded as a one-handed tool, leaving the left hand free for all manner of guns, torches and shields, or as a two-handed behemoth. I was using the hunter’s axe previously, a weapon that unimaginatively transforms from a small axe to a large axe, and while I appreciated the different fighting styles these forms offered, I wasn’t blown away by the creativity. But then I found the kirkhammer; in its two-handed form, this is a mighty hammer, the sort that makes Thor’s look like a kid’s plastic my-first-toolkit hammer, that is swung slowly, but with such oomph that it can level small mountains with a single blow. But when it transforms, the head is holstered on your back, and a thin sword is drawn from its handle, leaving you with a sword. This weapon is, therefore, a sword and a hammer. At once.
I don’t think you understand what I’m getting at here, which is indicative of both my failings as a writer, as the extravagant magnificence of this weapon. You can stab things. Or smush them. You can hit with lots of attacks, or one dirty great one. You could hold and release B to spin in a circle and cut down all the grass around you for rupees, or you could do some DIY. With the same tool.
The upshot of all this is that I’ve stumbled across the most clunkily-worded, needlessly capitalised, specifically-referenced threat in the world; and it’s a bloody great feeling. | weapons_science |

Type 1 heavy machine gun. Machine guns such as the M2 Browning and MG42 , are of this second kind. A cam, lever or actuator absorbs part of the energy of the recoil to operate the gun mechanism.
An externally actuated weapon uses an external power source, such as an electric motor or hand crank, to move its mechanism through the firing sequence.
Modern weapons of this type are often referred to as Gatling guns , after the original inventor not only of the well-known hand-cranked 19th century proto-machine gun, but also of the first electrically-powered version.
They have several barrels each with an associated chamber and action on a rotating carousel and a system of cams that load, cock, and fire each mechanism progressively as it rotates through the sequence; essentially each barrel is a separate bolt-action rifle using a common feed source.
The continuous nature of the rotary action, and its relative immunity to overheating allow for an incredibly high cyclic rate of fire, often several thousand rounds per minute.
Rotary guns are less prone to jamming than a gun operated by gas or recoil, as the external power source will eject misfired rounds with no further trouble, but this is not possible in the rare cases of self-powered rotary guns.
Whereas such weapons are highly reliable and formidably effective, one drawback is that the weight and size of the power source and driving mechanism makes them usually impractical for use outside of a vehicle or aircraft mount.
Revolver cannons , such as the Mauser MK , were developed in World War II by the Germans to provide high-caliber cannons with a reasonable rate of fire and reliability.
In contrast to the rotary format, such weapons have a single barrel, and a recoil-operated carriage holding a revolving chamber with typically five chambers.
As each round is fired, electrically, the carriage moves back rotating the chamber which also ejects the spent case, indexes the next live round to be fired with the barrel and loads the next round into the chamber.
The action is very similar to that of the revolver pistols common in the 19th and 20th centuries, giving this type of weapon its name. A Chain gun is a specific, patented type of Revolver cannon, the name in this case deriving from its driving mechanism.
As noted above, firing a machine gun for prolonged periods produces large amounts of heat. In a worst-case scenario this may cause a cartridge to overheat and detonate even when the trigger is not pulled, potentially leading to damage or causing the gun to cycle its action and keep firing until it has exhausted its ammunition supply or jammed; this is known as cooking off as distinct from runaway fire where the sear fails to re-engage when the trigger is released.
To guard against cook-offs occurring, some kind of cooling system or design element is required. Early machine guns were often water-cooled and while this technology was very effective, and was indeed one of the sources of the notorious efficiency of machine guns during the First World War , the water jackets also added considerable weight to an already bulky design; they were also vulnerable to the enemies' bullets themselves.
Armour could of course be provided, and in WW I the Germans in particular often did this; but this added yet more weight to the guns. Air-cooled machine guns often feature quick-change barrels often carried by a crew member , passive cooling fins, or in some designs forced-air cooling, such as that employed by the Lewis Gun.
Advances in metallurgy and use of special composites in barrel liners have allowed for greater heat absorption and dissipation during firing. The higher the rate of fire, the more often barrels must be changed and allowed to cool.
To minimize this, most air-cooled guns are fired only in short bursts or at a reduced rate of fire. Some designs — such as the many variants of the MG42 — are capable of rates of fire in excess of 1, rounds per minute.
Motorized Gatling guns are capable of the fastest firing rates of all, partly because this format involves extra energy being injected into the system from outside, instead of depending on energy derived from the propellant contained within the cartridges, partly because the next round can be inserted simultaneously with or before the ejection of the previous cartridge case, and partly because this design intrinsically deals with the unwanted heat very efficiently — effectively quick-changing the barrel and chamber after every shot.
The multiple guns that comprise a Gatling being a much larger bulk of metal than other, single-barreled guns, they are thus much slower to rise in temperature for a given amount of heat, while at the same time they are also much better at shedding the excess, as the extra barrels not only provide a larger surface area from which to dissipate it, but in the nature of the design are spun at very high speed, which has the benefit of producing enhanced air-cooling as a side-effect.
In weapons where the round seats and fires at the same time, mechanical timing is essential for operator safety, to prevent the round from firing before it is seated properly.
Machine guns are controlled by one or more mechanical sears. When a sear is in place, it effectively stops the bolt at some point in its range of motion.
Some sears stop the bolt when it is locked to the rear. Other sears stop the firing pin from going forward after the round is locked into the chamber.
Almost all machine guns have a "safety" sear , [ citation needed ] which simply keeps the trigger from engaging.
The first successful machine-gun designs were developed in the midth century. The key characteristic of modern machine guns, their relatively high rate of fire and more importantly mechanical loading, first appeared in the Model Gatling gun , which was adopted by the United States Navy.
These weapons were still powered by hand; however, this changed with Hiram Maxim 's idea of harnessing recoil energy to power reloading in his Maxim machine gun.
Gatling also experimented with electric-motor-powered models; as discussed above, this externally powered machine reloading has seen use in modern weapons as well.
While technical use of the term "machine gun" has varied, the modern definition used by the Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers' Institute of America is "a fully automatic firearm that loads, fires and ejects continuously when the trigger is held to the rear until the ammunition is exhausted or pressure on the trigger is released.
The first known ancestors of multi-shot weapons were medieval organ guns , while the first to have the ability to fire multiple shots from a single barrel without a full manual reload were revolvers made in Europe in the late s.
One is a shoulder-gun-length weapon made in Nuremberg, Germany, circa Another is a revolving arquebus , produced by Hans Stopler of Nuremberg in True repeating long arms were difficult to manufacture prior to the development of the unitary firearm cartridge; nevertheless, lever-action repeating rifles such as the Kalthoff repeater and Cookson repeater were made in small quantities in the 17th century.
Perhaps the earliest examples of predecessors to the modern machine gun are to be found in East Asia. According to the Wu-Pei-Chih, a booklet examining Chinese military equipment produced during the first quarter of the 17th century, the Chinese army had in its arsenal the 'Po-Tzu Lien-Chu-P'ao' or 'string-ofbullets cannon'.
This was a repeating cannon fed by a hopper which fired its charges sequentially. This weapon was also hopper-fed and never went into mass production.
In the first mention of the automatic principle of machine guns was in a paper presented to the Royal Society of England by an Englishman by the name of Palmer who described a volley gun capable of being operated by either recoil or gas.
Another early revolving gun was created by James Puckle , a London lawyer, who patented what he called "The Puckle Gun " on May 15, It was a design for a manually operated 1.
According to Puckle, it was able to fire round bullets at Christians and square bullets at Turks.
In , Philadelphia gunsmith Joseph Belton offered the Continental Congress a "new improved gun" , which was capable of firing up to twenty shots in five seconds; unlike older repeaters using complex lever-action mechanisms, it used a simpler system of superposed loads , and was loaded with a single large paper cartridge.
Congress requested that Belton modify flintlock muskets to fire eight shots in this manner, but rescinded the order when Belton's price proved too high.
In the early and midth century, a number of rapid-firing weapons appeared which offered multi-shot fire, mostly volley guns. Volley guns such as the Mitrailleuse and double-barreled pistols relied on duplicating all parts of the gun, though the Nock gun used the otherwise-undesirable "chain fire" phenomenon where multiple chambers are ignited at once to propagate a spark from a single flintlock mechanism to multiple barrels.
Pepperbox pistols also did away with needing multiple hammers but used multiple manually operated barrels. Revolvers further reduced this to only needing a pre-prepared cylinder and linked advancing the cylinder to cocking the hammer.
However, these were still manually operated. In a machine capable of firing rifle shots a minute was devised by a French mechanic by the name of Hamel.
In the s a machine gun was designed by a Swiss man called Jacob Steuble, who tried to sell it to the Russian, English and French governments.
The English and Russian governments showed interest but the former refused to pay Steuble, who later sued them for this transgression, and the latter tried to imprison him.
The French government showed interest at first and while they noted that mechanically there was nothing wrong with Steuble's invention they turned him down, stating that the machine both lacked novelty and could not be usefully employed by the army.
In a short description of a prototype electrically-ignited mechanical machine gun was published in Scientific American by a J.
The model described is small in scale and works by rotating a series of barrels vertically so that it is feeding at the top from a 'tube' or hopper and could be discharged immediately at any elevation after having received a charge, according to the author.
In an Italian by the name of Cesar Rosaglio announced his invention of a machine gun capable of being operated by a single man and firing rifle shots a minute or 12, in an hour after taking into account the time needed to reload the 'tanks' of ammunition.
In June a model of a 'war engine' allegedly capable of firing 10, ball cartridges in 10 minutes was demonstrated by a British inventor called Francis McGetrick.
In a rotary cannon using a unique form of wheellock ignition was designed by an Irish immigrant to America by the name of Delany.
In a British patent for a mechanically operated machine gun was filed by Henry Clarke. This weapon used multiple barrels arranged side by side, fed by a revolving cylinder that was in turn fed by hoppers, similar to the system used by Nichols.
The gun could be fired by percussion or electricity, according to the author. Unlike other mechanically operated machine guns of the era, this weapon didn't use any form of self-contained cartridge, with firing being carried out by separate percussion caps.
In his patent, Bessemer describes a hydropneumatic delayed-blowback-operated, fully automatic cannon.
Part of the patent also refers to a steam-operated piston to be used with firearms but the bulk of the patent is spent detailing the former system.
In America, a patent for a machine gun type weapon was filed by John Andrus Reynolds in Barnes in In France and Britain, a mechanically operated machine gun was patented in by the Frenchman Francois Julien.
This weapon was a cannon that fed from a type of open-ended tubular magazine, only using rollers and an endless chain in place of springs.
The Agar Gun , otherwise known as a "coffee-mill gun" because of its resemblance to a coffee mill, was invented by Wilson Agar at the beginning of the US Civil War.
The weapon featured mechanized loading using a hand crank linked to a hopper above the weapon. The weapon featured a single barrel and fired through the turning of the same crank; it operated using paper cartridges fitted with percussion caps and inserted into metal tubes which acted as chambers; it was therefore functionally similar to a revolver.
The weapon was demonstrated to President Lincoln in The Union Army eventually purchased a total of 54 of the weapons. However, due to antiquated views of the Ordnance Department the weapons, like its more famous counterpart the Gatling Gun, saw only limited use.
The Gatling gun , patented in by Richard Jordan Gatling , was the first to offer controlled, sequential fire with mechanical loading. The design's key features were machine loading of prepared cartridges and a hand-operated crank for sequential high-speed firing.
It first saw very limited action in the American Civil War ; it was subsequently improved and used in the Franco-Prussian war and North-West Rebellion.
Many were sold to other armies in the late 19th century and continued to be used into the early 20th century, until they were gradually supplanted by Maxim guns.
Early multi-barrel guns were approximately the size and weight of contemporary artillery pieces, and were often perceived as a replacement for cannon firing grapeshot or canister shot.
In in the aftermath of the Second Schleswig War Denmark started a program intended to develop a gun that used the recoil of a fired shot to reload the firearm though a working model wouldn't be produced until In a Lt.
Friberg of the Swedish army patented a fully automatic recoil-operated firearm action and may have produced firing prototypes of a derived design around this was the forerunner to the Kjellman machine gun , though, due to rapid residue buildup from the use of black powder, Friberg's design was not a practical weapon.
Also in , the Bavarian regiment of the Prussian army used a unique mitrailleuse style weapon in the Franco-Prussian war. The weapon was made up of four barrels placed side by side that replaced the manual loading of the French mitrailleuse with a mechanical loading system featuring a hopper containing 41 cartridges at the breech of each barrel.
Although it was used effectively at times, mechanical difficulties hindered its operation and it was ultimately abandoned shortly after the war ended de.
The first practical self-powered machine gun was invented in by Sir Hiram Maxim. The Maxim machine gun used the recoil power of the previously fired bullet to reload rather than being hand-powered, enabling a much higher rate of fire than was possible using earlier designs such as the Nordenfelt and Gatling weapons.
Maxim also introduced the use of water cooling, via a water jacket around the barrel, to reduce overheating. Maxim's gun was widely adopted, and derivative designs were used on all sides during the First World War.
The design required fewer crew and was lighter and more usable than the Nordenfelt and Gatling guns. First World War combat experience demonstrated the military importance of the machine gun.
The United States Army issued four machine guns per regiment in , but that allowance increased to machine guns per regiment by Heavy guns based on the Maxim such as the Vickers machine gun were joined by many other machine weapons, which mostly had their start in the early 20th century such as the Hotchkiss machine gun.
Submachine guns e. The biggest single cause of casualties in World War I was actually artillery, but combined with wire entanglements , machine guns earned a fearsome reputation.
Another fundamental development occurring before and during the war was the incorporation by gun designers of machine gun auto-loading mechanisms into handguns, giving rise to semi-automatic pistols such as the Borchardt s , automatic machine pistols and later submachine guns such as the Beretta Aircraft-mounted machine guns were first used in combat in World War I.
Immediately this raised a fundamental problem. The most effective position for guns in a single-seater fighter was clearly, for the purpose of aiming, directly in front of the pilot; but this placement would obviously result in bullets striking the moving propeller.
Early solutions, aside from simply hoping that luck was on the pilot's side with an unsynchronized forward-firing gun, involved either aircraft with pusher props like the Vickers F.
By mid , the introduction of a reliable gun synchronizer by the Imperial German Flying Corps made it possible to fire a closed-bolt machine gun forward through a spinning propeller by timing the firing of the gun to miss the blades.
The Allies had no equivalent system until and their aircraft suffered badly as a result, a period known as the Fokker Scourge , after the Fokker Eindecker , the first German plane to incorporate the new technology.
As better materials became available following the First World War, light machine guns became more readily portable; designs such as the Bren light machine gun replaced bulky predecessors like the Lewis gun in the squad support weapon role, while the modern division between medium machine guns like the M Browning machine gun and heavy machine guns like the Browning M2 became clearer.
New designs largely abandoned water jacket cooling systems as both undesirable, due to a greater emphasis on mobile tactics and unnecessary, thanks to the alternative and superior technique of preventing overheating by swapping barrels.
The interwar years also produced the first widely used and successful general-purpose machine gun , the German MG While this machine gun was equally able in the light and medium roles, it proved difficult to manufacture in quantity, and experts on industrial metalworking were called in to redesign the weapon for modern tooling, creating the MG This weapon was simpler, cheaper to produce, fired faster, and replaced the MG 34 in every application except vehicle mounts, since the MG 42's barrel changing system could not be operated when it was mounted.
Experience with the MG42 led to the US issuing a requirement to replace the aging Browning Automatic Rifle with a similar weapon, which would also replace the M; simply using the MG42 itself was not possible, as the design brief required a weapon which could be fired from the hip or shoulder like the BAR.
The resulting design, the M60 machine gun , was issued to troops during the Vietnam War. The most common interface on machine guns is a pistol grip and trigger.
On earlier manual machine guns, the most common type was a hand crank. On externally powered machine guns, such as miniguns, an electronic button or trigger on a joystick is commonly used.
Light machine guns often have a butt stock attached, while vehicle and tripod mounted machine guns usually have spade grips.
In the late 20th century, scopes and other complex optics became more common as opposed to the more basic iron sights. Loading systems in early manual machine guns were often from a hopper of loose un-linked cartridges.
Manual-operated volley guns usually had to be reloaded manually all at once each barrel reloaded by hand, or with a set of cartridges affixed to a plate that was inserted into the weapon.
With hoppers, the rounds could often be added while the weapon was firing. This gradually changed to belt-fed types.
Belts were either held in the open by the person, or in a bag or box. Some modern vehicle machine guns used linkless feed systems however. Modern machine guns are commonly mounted in one of four ways.
The first is a bipod — often these are integrated with the weapon. This is common on light machine guns and some medium machine guns.
Another is a tripod , where the person holding it does not form a "leg" of support. Medium and heavy machine guns usually use tripods.
On ships, vehicles and aircraft machine guns are usually mounted on a pintle mount — basically a steel post that is connected to the frame or body.
Tripod and pintle mounts are usually used with spade grips. The last major mounting type is one that is disconnected from humans, as part of an armament system, such as a tank coaxial or part of an aircraft's armament.
These are usually electrically fired and have complex sighting systems, for example, the US Helicopter Armament Subsystems.

The M24E6 has also proven to more reliable, faster in rate of fire per minute and superior than the heavy old M The most notable features of the M can be revealed in the adjustable sights, the ergonomically designed carrying handle and the durability of the titanium steel used to produce the gun.
The great advantage of titanium steel will prevent rust from entering the usable and important parts of the firearm which ensures that the machine gun will work for more than its expected lifetime as rust is the main problem of jamming and barrel displacement in other guns we know today.
We see this gun, we run, we hear of this gun, we shudder and shiver in our spine. Just imagine the terror one would feel being held up in an extreme hostage situation with one of these?
In it was also a standard issue of weaponry and more especially a prized jewel to Joseph Stalin of that Era as it was most certainly the next best thing on the markets and to have been the stepping stone to all of his dangerous endeavors.
AK boasts an estimated million in production around the globe and these are only legal patented and produced, not forgetting the somewhat undetectable illegal production of these hand driven most powerful machine guns as well as backyard produced ammunition made by gun enthusiasts by melting and refining precious metals and putting together the parts of the AK in bulk productions and distributed all over the black markets.
This should tell you something about the remarkability and world phenomena of the revolutionary world popular AK Kalashnikov.
The sole purpose of a gun being in the form of a semi- automatic machine is purely to contribute to and to aid in ensuring the greater intended destruction that the licensed, authorized or issued users of this powerful artillery are getting for whatever purpose of use.
When we speak of an M4 Carbine Commando, picture a mercenary like Chuck Norris the movie: Missing in Action Holding this gun, getting ready to trail blaze a fire path of explosions and drilling the air with continuous hellfire.
This backup unit is a separate attachment which is the M under barrel mounted grenade launcher that was designed to fit as the main feature of this hand held monster.
The M Grenade launching capability of the M4 Carbine Rifle sure does make it one of the most intelligently designed counteractive medium and a gift given to American soldiers and serves as a life saver in those desperate times of need when your ammunition runs out.
Having the convenience of the M to be attached to your M4 is amazing as it saves you the time of having to reach down to your grenade in a raging gunfire combat situation.
In a matter of a split second one could lose their life which is precisely why the convenience of having the M Grenade launcher attachment takes the award to victory of just having to push a button while holding your M4 to be able to uproot an entire troop of enemies in line of sight by dispersing a single shot 40MM high explosive grenade in that rush.
We can say by its outstanding reputation of 21rst Century weaponry advancement and intelligence that it sure does pack an immense amount of Heat that can be that the commonly known guns may not be able to produce in terms of reliability, performance, durability and efficiency and accuracy.
It sure does fulfill the purpose and promise it was built for and that is to provide the Military service of the United States with excellence in the battlefield together with the combination of an outright competitive advantage in terms of power developed weapons.
In the s, gun manufacturers designed a number of mechanisms to address the problems associated with limited firing ability.
A lot of these early machine guns combined several barrels and firing hammers into a single unit. Among the most popular designs was the Gatling gun , named after its inventor Richard Jordan Gatling.
This weapon -- the first machine gun to gain widespread popularity -- consists of six to 10 gun barrels positioned in a cylinder.
Each barrel has its own breech and firing pin system. To operate the gun, you turn a crank, which revolves the barrels inside the cylinder.
Each barrel passes under an ammunition hopper , or carousel magazine , as it reaches the top of the cylinder. A new cartridge falls into the breech and the barrel is loaded.
Each firing pin has a small cam head that catches hold of a slanted groove in the gun's body. As each barrel revolves around the cylinder, the groove pulls the pin backward, pushing in on a tight spring.
Just after a new cartridge is loaded into the breech, the firing-pin cam slides out of the groove and the spring propels it forward. The pin hits the cartridge, firing the bullet down the barrel.
When each barrel revolves around to the bottom of the cylinder, the spent cartridge shell falls out of an ejection port.
The Gatling gun played an important role in several 19th century battles, but it wasn't until the early 20th century that the machine gun really established itself as a weapon to be reckoned with.
The Gatling gun is often considered a machine gun because it shoots a large number of bullets in a short amount of time.
But unlike modern machine guns, it isn't fully automatic: You have to keep cranking if you want to keep shooting.
The first fully automatic machine gun is actually credited to an American named Hiram Maxim. Maxim's remarkable gun could shoot more than rounds per minute, giving it the firepower of about rifles.
The basic idea behind Maxim's gun, as well as the hundreds of machine gun designs that followed, was to use the power of the cartridge explosion to reload and re-cock the gun after each shot.
There are three basic mechanisms for harnessing this power:. Click and hold the trigger to see how a recoil-action gun fires.
For simplicity's sake, this animation doesn't show the cartridge loading, extraction and ejection mechanisms. The first automatic machine guns had recoil-based systems.
When you propel a bullet down the barrel, the forward force of the bullet has an opposite force that pushes the gun backward.
In a gun built like a revolver , this recoil force just pushes the gun back at the shooter. But in a recoil-based machine gun, moving mechanisms inside the gun absorb some of this recoil force.
Here's the process: To prepare this gun to fire, you pull the breech bolt 1 back, so it pushes in the rear spring 2. The trigger sear 3 catches onto the bolt and holds it in place.
The feed system runs an ammunition belt through the gun, loading a cartridge into the breech more on this later. When you pull the trigger, it releases the bolt, and the spring drives the bolt forward.
The bolt pushes the cartridge from the breech into the chamber. The impact of the bolt firing pin on the cartridge ignites the primer, which explodes the propellant, which drives the bullet down the barrel.
The barrel and the bolt have a locking mechanism that fastens them together on impact. In this gun, both the bolt and the barrel can move freely in the gun housing.
The force of the moving bullet applies an opposite force on the barrel, pushing it and the bolt backward. As the bolt and barrel slide backward, they move past a metal piece that unlocks them.
When the pieces separate, the barrel spring 4 pushes the barrel forward, while the bolt keeps moving backward. The bolt is connected to an extractor , which removes the spent shell from the barrel.
In a typical system, the extractor has a small lip that grips onto a narrow rim at the base of the shell. As the bolt recoils, the extractor slides with it, pulling the empty shell backward.
The backward motion of the bolt also activates the ejection system. The ejector's job is to remove the spent shell from the extractor and drive it out of an ejection port.
When the spent shell is extracted, the feeding system can load a new cartridge into the breech. If you keep the trigger depressed, the rear spring will drive the bolt against the new cartridge, starting the whole cycle over again.
If you release the trigger, the sear will catch hold of the bolt and keep it from swinging forward. Click and hold the trigger to see how a blowback-action gun fires.
A blowback system is something like a recoil system, except that the barrel is fixed in the gun housing, and the barrel and bolt don't lock together.
You can see how this mechanism works in the diagram below. This gun has a sliding bolt 3 held in place by a spring-driven cartridge magazine 5 , and a trigger mechanism 1.
When you slide the bolt back, the trigger sear 2 holds it in place. When you pull the trigger, the sear releases the bolt, and the spring drives it forward.
After the bolt chambers the cartridge, the firing pin sets off the primer, which ignites the propellant.
The explosive gas from the cartridge drives the bullet down the barrel. At the same time, the gas pressure pushes in the opposite direction, forcing the bolt backward.
As in the recoil system, an extractor pulls the shell out of the barrel, and the ejector forces it out of the gun. A new cartridge lines up in front of the bolt just before the spring pushes the bolt forward, starting the process all over again.
This continues as long as you hold the trigger down and there's ammunition feeding into the system. Click and hold the trigger to see how a gas-action gun fires.
The gas system is similar to the blowback system, but it has some additional pieces. The main addition is a narrow piston attached to the bolt, which slides back and forth in a cylinder positioned above the gun barrel.
You can see how this system works in the diagram below. This gun is basically the same as one using the blowback system, but the rear force of the explosion doesn't propel the bolt backward.
Instead, the forward gas pressure pushes the bolt back. Retrieved Firearms: The Life Story of a Technology. Greenwood Publishing Group.

https://www.mikemoranknives.com/post/jagdmesser-the-classic-german-hunting-knife | 2023-12-05T12:15:53 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-50/segments/1700679100551.17/warc/CC-MAIN-20231205105136-20231205135136-00494.warc.gz | 0.97031 | 962 | CC-MAIN-2023-50 | webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2023-50__0__224244070 | en | Every country has its traditional styled knives, and Germany is no exception. Among the many diverse German models is the “Jagdmesser”, which translates to “hunting knife” in English. While many variations of the Jagsmesser fixed-blade hunting knives exist, the most familiar styles feature handles made of one piece of solid deer stag. Solid deer stag handles are naturally curved and fit nicely into the palm of a hand. One marvelous attribute exhibited in those stag handles is the absolute uniqueness of each one. Though most Jagdmesser knives are factory made, they all have the look and feel of a custom knife with those beautiful distinctive stag handles. Lovely nickel silver caps usually cover the back end of the handle, often with simple to ornate decorations around the edges. Some of the caps have sides which wrap around the handles, while some only cover the back end. One interesting variation of the deer stag handle is the “crown” type. Crown stag refers to the piece of stag which is attached to the deer’s skull and flares out as it meets the skull. This type of stag presents an interesting shape along with a natural pommel for a more secure grip.
Another common feature is the one-sided handguard which is often formed as part of the blade. The blades are usually a flat spear or drop-point shape which is a very good universal design for outdoor use. Some higher end models come with factory file-work along the back side of the blade. While that serves no practical purpose, it does provide an added touch of beauty to an otherwise good looking knife. The blades have a tang which generally run part way or all the way through the stag handle. Most models with the curved stag handles also have a cone shaped decorative metal collar covering the front side of the handle transitioning to the handguard. Those collars also have graceful decorations around them in similar form to the handle end caps. The fixed-blade Jagdmesser knives always come with a sheath which is made from leather and generally has nickel silver trim on each end of the sheath. Because the blades usually have a flat wedge shape, the sheaths have the same inside shape to perfectly fit the blades.
While it is not known for certain when this style of Jagdmesser first appeared in Germany, it was most likely during the 1850s to 1860s. The earliest example shown in print is seen in a J. A. Henckels factory catalog from 1877, but it’s fairly certain that similar models were produced at least a decade or two earlier. Other German catalogs from the 1830s and 1840s show fixed blade hunting knives, but not in the same style as the stag handled Jagdmesser knives described within this article.
By the late 19th century, and throughout the 20th century, German cutlers produced quite a variety of different hunting knives, but the stag handled Jagdmesser knives were a cornerstone of nearly every German cutlery company. These models were not as popular in the United States since America already had a tradition of its own Bowie and later Marbles styled hunting knives. But throughout Germany and much of Western Europe, the Jagdmesser was a well-respected hunting knife.
Four classic German-made models are shown within to highlight the universal design along with some slight variations. On the far left is a model from J. A. Henckels which was one of the premier cutlery companies from Solingen, Germany. This knife has a flat nickel silver cap at the back end of the handle. Next to the Henckels sits a model made by Kuno Ritter which is better known today as Hubertus. This knife has a nickel silver handle cap with sides that wrap around the handle. A nice detail is seen in the decorative file work on the back side of the blade. The third knife from the left was produced by Puma and has a wonderful crown stag handle with a domed shape cover at the back end. This Puma model also features some decorative file work on the back side of the blade. The last knife on the far right was also manufactured by Kuno Ritter (Hubertus) and boasts a three color etch on the front blade side. That etch depicts a man holding a rifle with his dog beside him. Also seen in the etch is a bird and an elk.
All Jagdmesser models shown are roughly the same size at around 8 to 9 inches in length, and all have similar leather sheaths. These examples were all made during the mid-1900s, but similar examples are still being produced today by various German cutlery companies. | weapons_science |

Getting a good and cheap knife is hard to do in a world of knockoffs and imitations. Today, we are going to look at 5 that while inexpensive are not in the least bit cheap. Once you've looked them over, you'll agree with us. They may be cheap, but they are not "cheap." Carrying a knife has been made popular, in today's TV culture with NCIS and Gibbs Rule #9 about always carrying a knife. Well, in today's real world it is also true. With what you are about to see you can have a knife without having to lay down a bundle of cash to get a serviceable knife that can work in both the TAC World, EMS/EMT, and just having in your pocket, just in case.
Best cheap pocket knife

It also sports a blood red Shield on the handle and has a golden cross within its confines.
While it looks stylish, it is all business when you open it; it’s for serious work. It features a blood groove along with a dual edge tapering to a needle tip. The handle is silver Aluminum, and it folds down to 5" when closed. The blade is 4 mils thick at its thickest point. So, overall you have a wickedly dangerous looking knife at a low low price.
3. M-tech 8 Inch Spring Assisted Blood Red Folding Pocket Knife Tactical Combat
Here you have a tactical knife that goes the limit. Spring assist opens in a flash. The single edged blade is 3.5" and curves up to a tip and with handle; its open length is over 8" in length. While it is not in the class of the Gurkha Kukri, a Gerber Mk II, and the Marine K-Bar. In a pinch, this knife can do the job if needed. You have it all in a Blood Red finish that includes the blade. The handle is a non-slip Black with Red piping that will fit the hand that wields it securely. Remember the rule about carrying a knife always, and you will stay alive.

TAC-Force knows what an EMT/EMS Tech needs in a knife. Easily visible to see in low light so you can see if to get to if you need it. Like many of the TAC-Force knives, it has a Seat Belt Cutter as well as a window breaker.
It has a speed assist thumb tab that lets you open the blade one-handed which helps when your other hand is busy keeping the pressure on a wound.
Along the cutting edge of this single edged knife, you have a serrated edge to help in cutting through tough materials like belts, packages, and cloth for bandages.
The remainder of the 3-1/4" blade is as sharp as a razor that you can use in your work. For a Prepper it would make an excellent addition to your Bug-Out Bag, First Aid Kit, and welcome addition to a small personal survival kit.
It's a nice knife to have when seconds count, and you have to get that packaged pressure bandage open to stop a bleeder.
Today's secret key ingredient is to get a knife that is small, versatile, and easy to carry is the hallmark of the 5 knives you have seen today. They all fit in niches where many have need of such a knife.
However, the bottom line is these are not Samurai Swords or religious icons. They are work knives, and as such, they can be expended if the situation calls for it. Each costs a fraction of the So-called professional grade knives and does a good job in their place. That way, in a life or death situation losing one, is not any hardship. An EMS or EMT might lose 3-5 knives a year doing their jobs. While First Responders in the field doing their job could break theirs and the list goes on. The 5 Knives are cheap in the monetary sense.
However, they are not cheap in the usability sense, they will get the job done you ask of them, and that is all that really matters at the end of the day. | weapons_science |

“Fortunately, Kamalundi said the accident did not cause any human damage or pollution,” said a presenter on state television. The cause of the accident is under investigation.
The word state television used in its report attributed to Kamalundi in Persian can also be used for “accident”
The Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, the civilian arm of its nuclear program, later released a statement using the same wording used in the TV report, without going into details.
Natanz was hit by a mysterious explosion in July, which authorities later described as sabotage. Israel, Iran’s arch-enemy regional enemy, is suspected of carrying out an attack there, as well as launching other attacks, as world powers are now negotiating with Tehran in Vienna over its nuclear deal.
Iran also blamed Israel for the killing of the scientist who started the country’s military nuclear program decades ago. Israel has not announced any of the attacks, although Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has repeatedly described Iran as the main threat his country has faced in recent weeks. Israeli officials could not be reached for comment on Sunday.
Iran announced on Saturday that it had launched a series of 164 IR-6 centrifuges at the plant, injected it with uranium gas and began a rapid spin. Officials have also begun testing the IR-9 centrifuges, which they say will enrich uranium 50 times faster than Iran’s first-generation centrifuge, the IR-1. The Iran nuclear deal limited itself to using the IR-1 only for enrichment.
Since then President Donald Trump withdrew from the Iran nuclear deal in 2018, Tehran has relinquished all limits on its uranium stockpile. It now enriches up to 20% purity, which is a technical step up to 90% of weapon levels. Iran insists its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes, but fears that Tehran has the ability to build a bomb caused world powers to reach an agreement with the Islamic Republic in 2015.
The deal lifted economic sanctions on Iran in exchange for restricting its program and allowing IAEA inspectors to closely monitor its work.
On Tuesday, an Iranian cargo ship said to be used as a floating base for the paramilitary Revolutionary Guard Corps off the coast of Yemen was hit by an explosion, most likely from a slow mine. Iran blamed Israel for the explosion. This attack escalated the long shadow war in the waterways of the Middle East targeting shipping in the region.

- First, our algorithms collected as much information available about these products from trusted sources.
- We employed both Artificial Intelligence and large data volume to validate all collected information.
- Then our AI ranked them on their quality-to-price ratio using industry-standard criteria that let us pick the best Slip On Recoil Pad currently on the market!
- Brand Value: What happens when you go for a not-so-reputable brand just because the price seems cheap? Well, the chance of getting a short-lasting product goes higher. That’s because the renowned brands have a reputation to maintain, others don’t.
- Features: You don’t need heaps of features, but useful ones. We look at the features that matter and choose the top Slip On Recoil Pad based on that.
- Specifications: Numbers always help you measure the quality of a product in a quantitative way. We try to find products of higher specifications, but with the right balance.
- Customer Ratings: The hundreds of customers using the Slip On Recoil Pad before you won’t say wrong, would they? Better ratings mean better service experienced by a good number of people.
- Customer Reviews: Like ratings, customer reviews give you actual and trustworthy information, coming from real-world consumers about the Slip On Recoil Pad they used.
- Seller Rank: Now, this is interesting! You don’t just need a good Slip On Recoil Pad, you need a product that is trendy and growing in sales. It serves two objectives. Firstly, the growing number of users indicates the product is good. Secondly, the manufacturers will hopefully provide better quality and after-sales service because of that growing number.
- Value For The Money: They say you get what you pay for. Cheap isn’t always good. But that doesn’t mean splashing tons of money on a flashy but underserving product is good either. We try to measure how much value for the money you can get from your Slip On Recoil Pad before putting them on the list.
- Durability: Durability and reliability go hand to hand. A robust and durable Slip On Recoil Pad will serve you for months and years to come.
- Availability: Products come and go, new products take the place of the old ones. Probably some new features were added, some necessary modifications were done. What’s the point of using a supposedly good Slip On Recoil Pad if that’s no longer continued by the manufacturer? We try to feature products that are up-to-date and sold by at least one reliable seller, if not several.
- Negative Ratings: Yes, we take that into consideration too! When we pick the top rated Slip On Recoil Pad on the market, the products that got mostly negative ratings get filtered and discarded. | weapons_science |

|Hone your marksmanship during your all-inclusive adventure holiday at Siwash. Novice shooters will enjoy practicing their aim, while advanced marksmen can fine-tune their long-range shooting skills. This introduction to supervised shooting sports and axe throwing is a really fun activity that appeals to all—men and women, boys and girls (ages 12 and up, possibly younger at management's discretion).
The warm-up for your marksmanship experience at Siwash is spent working on your aim, learning to accurately throw hatchets at a wooden bulls-eye target set up on a tripod deep in the forest. Following that, at our private gun range located in a grassy meadow, you'll have the rare opportunity to shoot a 12 gauge shotgun at a moving target—flying clay pigeons, also known as skeet. The range's covered stand offers protection from rain and sun. Skeet shooting at Siwash is a quick-trigger challenge with two fixed traps, or target throwers, designed to test the reflexes of the shooter.
We also offer fixed and animated target shooting with rifles. Using .22 calibre guns with very little recoil, guests can practice hitting steel reactive targets at distances between 10 and 50 metres. These reactive targets engage the senses by flipping, moving and making noise when a shooter hits his or her mark. Targets include a duelling shooting tree for optional competitive shooting. For added challenge, the range is 300 metres long, equipped with reactive targets and ideal for testing long-distance marksmanship skills.
Our guides train each guest on safety guidelines, proper handling and techniques with all equipment to ensure a safe experience for everyone. Through private instruction and a controlled environment, guests can develop new abilities while achieving a sense of accomplishment. Our program is designed to teach skills and safety to first-time shooters while giving experienced marksmen an opportunity to test their abilities. | weapons_science |

This event could not have come at a worse time when the state’s institutions are weak and the coalition that formed the transition government in disarray. The security sector is in no better shape.
The Inspection Report from the Turkish port from where the weapons were shipped shows that the 1,263 pieces were shipped, made up of 900 pieces of Crossfire Single Barrel Model BR-32 (Wood Forend), 300 pieces of the BR-33 with crossfire pump action Model BR-0, BR-18 and BR 21 for a total of 60 pieces. For the pump action, the End User Certificate shows 50 but the Inspection Report from Turkey indicates that there were 60 pieces.
The BR-32 and BR-33 are semi-automatic that can be equipped with the BR-01 and BR-21 Crossfire Pump Action to convert them into fully automatic rifles. So contrary to the press release issued by the GACH Security company, these riffles are far from being hunting riffles. In the words of the weapons expert we consulted, these weapons are “more suited for security detail than hunting boar or chasing predator animals off one’s farm.”
What is missing from the End User Certificate but is in the Inspection Report are the following: 5 pieces of Crossfire Mezine Fed Shotgun + semi-automatic and 8 pieces Sentetien (or Ententien) F-98T and F-99T pistols. The weapons on video display plaid on online television stations did show pistols as well as riffles which are all semi-automatic that can be converted into fully automatic mode.
In the GACH press release explaining the circumstances surrounding the consignment and what they characterize as “the misunderstanding…at the heart of this whole saga is the free samples… which included Blank Pistols.” The release further claim that these blank pistols utilize a blank ammunition which only makes a loud bang and does not have the ability to cause harm.”
The pistols described in the GACH press release may exits but they are certainly not the ones listed in the inspection report confirming all of the items shipped from Turkey. The pistols shipped were Sentetien or Ententien F-98T and F-99T pistols are real and not “blank pistols”, as claimed by the importer.
GACH is also claiming that the BR-32 and BR-33 are “hunting riffles”. The weapons expert we consulted concluded that these type riffles are suited for security details and not for hunting. We have total confidence in the expert we consulted who is a retired military officer who knows a thing or two about weapons.

Levan Izoria, the Georgian Minister of Defence has announced that, in May this year, they plan to launch one of the country’s ‘most ambitious programs ever in terms of defence readiness’ – a centre for combat training based on the Hohenfels military base in Germany.
The centre will be opened on the Ministry of Defence base in Vaziani, not far from Tbilisi.
The first time news about the launch of the new centre was released was one year ago in February 2017. Izoria provided more precise details on the project while speaking in parliament at a defence and national security committee hearing:
“In 2017 we allocated two million lari to the improvement of the NATO-Georgian Joint Training and Evaluation Centre (JTEC). We also allocated 18 million for the construction of a centre for defence readiness in Vaziani. For the most part this money was saved as a result of optimizing expenditures within the ministry.We will already launch the defence readiness programme of Georgia in May with our main strategic partners,” Radio Svoboda cites Izoria as saying.
The centre in Vaziani will open together with the launch of the defence readiness programme, under which Georgian soldiers will train with the support of the USA. The new stage in Georgian-American military cooperation began in July 2016 after the visit of the then-US Secretary of State to Georgia, John Kerry. A memorandum was signed in Tbilisi on the ‘deepening of cooperation in the sphere of defence and security between Georgia and the USA’.
Izoria also announced that in 2018 the Georgian army will undergo serious reforms. In particular, 23 million lari (about 9.5 million dollars) from the Ministry of Defence’s budget has been allocated to modernize and renew the military’s aviation sector. The minister also said that a naval component will be included in the defence programme.
The Georgian army is currently upgrading its arsenal and equipment to meet NATO standards. This includes first and foremost light weaponry. Nine battalions will be fully equipped with the necessary weapons and equipment. Last year, hundreds of American M-240 machine guns were delivered to Georgia, which will replace the old weaponry left over from the Soviet period. This year, several thousand M4A1 rifles as well as Javelin missiles will be delivered to Georgia. Twenty per cent of the Ministry of Defence’s budget will be spent on rearming the Georgian military forces, totalling 802 million lari (around 330 million dollars) for the current year. | weapons_science |

It did pretty well.
I started off with some 55gr PMC store bought ammo that I had to use up. All of these shots are from benchrest, 100 meters. The lowest round in this group is actually one of the 80 grain rounds that is a bit off the reservation.
Then the new 80 grain Amax I made myself and that I blogged about here. They were terrible. I account that about a third of the rounds struck at least 5 inches from point of aim in random directions. My best guess is that the round sits so far back in the neck of the case that it is not setting concentric to the barrel. A second hypothesis is that the 1:7 twist of the barrel is not enough to stabilize the heavier bullets. In any case, I think that reloading anything above 75 gr is a waste of time for this rifle. Maybe for some future rifle with a longer barrel or a bolt action rifle that would permit the bullet to seat higher in the cartridge.
The 75 grain Amax home made bullets did much better.
And even the 68 grain HPBT home made bullets were consistent.
Then I took the FAL out of the safe just to make some noise. I used up some .308 silver bear ammo and some mil surplus of dubious origin. The silver bear did better than the milsurp. And was consistently more accurate (about 6 MOA). On that rifle I use a simple red dot reticle with no magnification. I had several missfeeds and tracked them all back to the brass catcher. Without that, the rifle functioned just fine. | weapons_science |

New images show what China’s potential grand plan is and when compared to Australia’s strength, or even America’s, it doesn’t bode well.
Expect to see these soon: Chinese social media is boasting of its rapidly growing naval strength, with comprehensive and powerful battle groups soon to begin roaming the world’s seas.
A set of graphic representations of Beijing’s next-generation aircraft carrier, only known as Type 003 at this point, is capitalising upon a rapidly looming shift in the world’s balance of power.
While highly speculative, the images succeed in pressing home one significant point: the United States is about to have a competitor at a level not seen since World War II.
The graphics detail the likely composition of a Chinese “blue water” (meaning able to roam the globe) naval battle group.
At its heart is the modern aircraft carrier, a fully combat-capable ship, unlike its predecessors Liaoning and Shandong. Its air group, while unsourced, does drive home Beijing’s emphasis on stealth and autonomous drones. And the fleet formation includes a potent mix of anti-aircraft cruisers, anti-submarine frigates and troop-carrying assault ships.
It’s a sight the world usually associates only with the United States.
But Beijing will soon be projecting this highly visible expression of power throughout Southeast Asia, the Indian Ocean and the Pacific.
“Those countries casting a wary eye towards China’s future carrier battle groups are quietly determining how co-ordinated actions can best compromise these aggressive future flagships,” says naval analyst Craig Hooper.
Beijing’s arms-race sprint
The Pacific Ocean is getting crowded.
The Chinese People’s Liberation Army navy (PLAN) has 370 warships, exceeding the United States Navy’s 296 vessels.
The numbers, however, conceal a fundamental imbalance. Currently, the US has far more active larger ships – specifically carriers, cruisers, and destroyers.
But that advantage is rapidly diminishing.
By 2030, the PLAN is expected to have about 460 ships. And most of the new ones will be large and highly capable.
Meanwhile, US construction plans will barely replace those retiring from its rapidly ageing fleet.
“Look at what the Chinese have said. President Xi has tasked his forces to be at a level of military parity with the United States by 2027. Those are his words,” US Admiral John Aquilino told the recent Halifax International Security Forum.
He emphasised the need for allies to work with the United States in patrolling international waters and building new, interoperable capabilities.
“We need to deliver capabilities sooner and faster,” he said
Australia won’t be among those allies.
The recent cancellation of a controversial French submarine construction project has pushed back the delivery of a replacement for Australia’s ageing Collins-class fleet into the 2040s.
A new generation of general-purpose frigates also faces delays. Australian modifications to the British design threaten to make it dangerously overweight even though it has less available firepower than its UK and Canadian counterparts.
The long arm of carrier influence
China’s Type 003 aircraft carrier represents a giant leap forward in capability.
In essence, it has skipped two whole generations of naval development.
The Soviet-era ski-jump equipping the PLAN Liaoning and Shandong carriers is the most basic aircraft-launch assistance technology. But the electromagnetic catapults fitted to Type 003 skips the hydraulic and steam systems developed by the West since the 1920s.
Only the United States’ USS Gerald R. Ford – much delayed and still undergoing extensive “fixing” – has a similar advanced system fitted.
Such catapults will allow China to operate more and larger aircraft quicker.
“The Type 003 will field a modern-looking air wing,” says Hooper.
“China’s first-generation logistics, refuelling, and early-warning aircraft may still need a lot of refinement, but they will, to untrained observers, look the part.”
Leading the pack aboard Type 003 is likely to be a new navalised version of the Shenyang FC-31 stealth fighter. The prototype of this aircraft was first revealed in October.
These will be supported by radar carrying early-warning aircraft and helicopters. But, most significantly, the air group is expected to be primarily built around various autonomous drones.
Like the US, Beijing plans to operate fuel-carrying robot aircraft able to extend the combat radius of its strike aircraft. But all eyes will be on the size, shape and number of combat-capable drones among them.
“China will do all it can to highlight their similarities in size, launch technologies, and air wing composition,” argues Hooper.
“And when the Type 003 starts steaming around the Indo-Pacific, US allies may well draw further comparisons between the once-familiar sight of US flat-tops to the increasingly visible silhouette of Chinese flagships today.”
Deterrence in the balance
“China has 17 shipyards: Last year they built 20 warships [and] this year they’re building another 20 ships,” Secretary of the navy Carlos Del Toro told the 2021 Aspen Security Forum.
“I’m concerned we need to build more ships … We need to increase resources by 3 per cent to 5 per cent over inflation. We’re raising the alarm.”
Washington, however, appears afflicted by the same equipment procurement problems as Canberra.
Its Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) was supposed to be a cheap, flexible vessel capable of fighting close to hostile coasts. But costs soared even as capabilities plummeted. Its interchangeable, modular weapons systems failed to materialise. And its machinery is prone to breakdowns. Which is why the US navy has started retiring them after little more than 10 years of active service.
The Zumwalt-class stealth cruiser was supposed to herald a new generation of naval design. But only three of the original 32 ships were built. Their revolutionary hypersonic railgun was cancelled. And that’s left the ships as largely toothless tigers – at $US7 billion each.
Meanwhile, the ageing US fleet is being hard-pressed to maintain its commitments.
Maintenance is being delayed. Dockyard modernisation and upgrade procedures are being postponed.
And that’s leaving its warships looking rusty and worn.
But the competition they’re expected to stand against continues to grow.
A November Pentagon report warns Beijing is on the brink of deploying new long-range strike capabilities.
“In the near-term, the PLAN will have the capability to conduct long-range precision strikes against land targets from its submarine and surface combatants using land-attack cruise missiles, notably enhancing the PRC’s global power project,” it reads.
“The addition of land-attack capabilities to the PLAN’s surface combatants and submarines would provide the PLA with flexible long-range strike options. This would allow the PRC to hold land targets at risk beyond the Indo-Pacific region from the maritime domain.” | weapons_science |

Most recently the USS Gerald R. Ford, commissioned by President Trump, had its first successful launch. The USS Ford is the Navy’s newest aircraft carrier and the first to with advanced digital magnetic technology.
The successful missions Friday came less than a week after President Trump commissioned the nearly $13 billion ship in Virginia.
“Today, USS Gerald R. Ford made history,” said Adm. Phil Davidson, commander of the U.S. Fleet Forces. “Great work by the Ford team and all the engineers who have worked hard to get the ship ready for this milestone.”
Prior to Friday’s missions, the new technology had been successfully tested ashore at Lakehurst, N.J., according to the Navy.
“This is the first shipboard recovery and launch of a fleet fixed wing aircraft,” said Capt. Rick McCormack, Ford’s commanding officer. | weapons_science |

SCATT systems will help experienced shooters to better their skills, and beginners the chance to shorten the time needed to learn shooting skills by a factor or two or three. Practicing in an average-size room you can use any type of weapon and simulate shooting at distances up to 1000 meters.
A general description of the training system
All systems operate on the following principles: An electronic optical sensor is fixed to the barrel of the weapon, or the compressed air cylinder of an air weapon. The shooter then aims at the electronic target. A trace of the point of aim can then be followed on a ‘real-time’ display screen. On activating the weapon trigger, the point of impact is then displayed on the screen. All results of the training session can be recorded for further analysis. | weapons_science |

At the same time, the Kremlin had also suggested previously that its nuclear-armed Avangard hypersonic boost-glide vehicle, which is launched using a converted ICBM rocket booster, would also not be subject to this agreement, but subsequently changed its position and allowed American officials to inspect at least one of these weapons under the auspices of the treaty. The Tomahawk cruise missiles contained by the USS Georgia - of which there can be up to 154 - can reach approximately 1,000 miles in any direction when launched, creating a … Russia Releases Videos Offering An Unprecedented Look At Its Six New Super Weapons. Finally, a new helicopter pad has been built, which would allow for the transporting of crews and payloads around the site. A cruise missile is a guided missile used against terrestrial targets, that remains in the atmosphere and flies the major portion of its flight path at approximately constant speed. Two U.S. officials also told CNN that they were aware that Russia “has been preparing to test missiles as part of its advanced weapons program.”. © document.write(new Date().getFullYear()) Brookline Media Inc.

The AGM-86 ALCM is the US Air Force's current nuclear-armed air-launched cruise missile. Redeveloping a nuclear sea-launched cruise missile, or SLCM-N, is a vital component of our modernization plan. The images of Novaya Zemlya from September 2020 show that new structures have appeared at the Pankovo site, a test facility that experts believe previously hosted the weapon for at least one live flight trial in late 2017. CNN was first to report that work might have resumed at the test site, drawing upon satellite images from Planet Labs that had been analyzed by researchers Michael Duitsman and Jeffrey Lewis at the Middlebury Institute of International Studies at Monterey. Regardless, Moscow has argued in the past that the Burevestnik does not fall within the New START framework, which is focused on limiting each country’s arsenals of intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM), submarine-launched ballistic missiles (SLBM), and heavy bombers. Theoretically, a cruise missile propelled by a nuclear-powered ramjet could travel at supersonic speeds out to practically unlimited range, skimming close to … Whether or not the Burevestnik test effort has simply switched from Nyonoksa back to Pankovo or if testing is occurring at multiple locations is unclear. The Kremlin has indicated it would be willing to extend the deal for a year without preconditions, while the United States is seeking a freeze in the total number of nuclear warheads on both sides. The explosion reportedly involved a small nuclear reactor that powers a new kind of long-range cruise missile. The first known test flight of the Burevestnik at Pankovo reportedly took place in November 2017 and U.S. intelligence sources claimed the missile had crashed in the Barents Sea. Overall, little is known about the exact design of this nuclear-powered cruise missile, but it’s thought to employ a nuclear-powered ramjet engine. Here's What You Need To Remember: Supposedly, the radiological event tied to the accident had been minor, and notices posted by regional officials were scrubbed from the internet. But locals were not convinced. Despite Moscow’s habitual obfuscation of the accident, internet social media made a coverup difficult to maintain. In August 2019, what may have been efforts to raise a Burevestnik missile from the seabed near the Nyonoksa test site resulted in an explosion that killed five scientists and injured three more from Russia’s state-run nuclear corporation Rosatom and left a radioactive cloud over the city of Severodvinsk. Cruise missiles are designed to deliver a large warhead over long distances with high precision. In the event of a major nuclear attack on the United States, a stand-off air-launched nuclear cruise missile may be among the few weapons able to retaliate. “Think about the environmental impact of that,” the official added. The Pentagon said it successfully launched the missile off the coast of California on Sunday. Recovering the wreck could give the Kremlin additional information to inform future tests and would keep the design out of foreign hands. Russia Is Hunting For Its Crashed Nuclear-Powered Cruise Missile And The U.S. Might Be Too. The Air Force has ordered 1,000+ nuclear-capable advanced cruise missiles as part of the planned trillion-dollar modernization of US nuclear weaponry. Russia's nuclear-powered cruise missile, a throwback to crazy-sounding Cold War weapons tech, is back. “The activity and new construction are consistent with a resumption of test flights of the Burevestnik nuclear-powered cruise missile,” Duitsman and Lewis contend. However, Putin’s video didn’t show numerous failed tests, or that even the successful launch in November 2017 had gone to crash in the sea after flying only twenty miles. A U.S. guided-missile submarine passed through the Strait of Hormuz, the Navy said Monday, in a rare disclosure of the movements of one of the United States’s nuclear-powered submarines. Modern cruise missiles are capable of travelling at supersonic or high subsonic speeds, are self-navigating, and are able to fly on a non-ballistic, extremely low-altitude trajectory.

You'll be able to read my full, five-page feature test in July's issue of the new-look Air Gunner magazine (out the first Thursday of June), but for now, here's a sneak preview...
The rifle's called the Kub - and it's available in three versions: the Kub-SB, Kub-RB and Kub-SL. The suffixes relate to differences in the cocking system - side-bolt, rear-bolt and side-lever. I've played with all three and, essentially, they're the same gun. My favourite (and, therefore, my test reports) are of the side-bolt which has got to be one of the most beautiful looking bolt-action combos on the airgun market today.
The Kub comes in delightful thumbhole or sporter woodwork (both walnut and both ambi) and its all-up weight - unscoped - is just 6.5 lbs. (3.1 kg). With my Hawk 3-12 x 44 AirMax on-board, I got a couple of ounces change out of 8 lbs. - and as well as the Kub-SB being a nice field weight, it's also beautifully balanced in your shoulder
As you can see from these scoop photos - a few more of which are on the Prestige Airguns website, along with detailed specs - the Kub is a very streamlined rifle. There's elegant chequer panels on the grip and fore-stock and despite the rifle's compact weights and measures, it's laden with lots of great features.
The firing valve has a special secondary air chamber which controls air-output in a pseudo-regulator way, and my .22 test sample actually gave me 120 usable shots per charge. In my case, a charge was 180 BAR down to 80, although Prestige quote 200 BAR as the maximum fill pressure.
I was well impressed with the Kub's two-stage trigger and its down-range accuracy was enough to tempt me into reaching for my wallet! With features like quick-fill charging (rotary cover), on-board manometer, 11/22mm scope grooves and adjustable butt, it's easily worth the money Prestige are asking for it. Prices range from £549 (for the Kub-RB Sporter) to £639 (for the flagship Kub-SB Thumbhole shown here).
Kubs are scheduled to arrive in gun shops around mid-May 2009 and I'm hoping to have another sample soon on which to undertake further field tests. When I do, you can be sure I'll be blogging about my hunting trips with the Kub... but for the meantime, remember to get your copy of July's Air Gunner for the exclusive first airing of this cracking little carbine. | weapons_science |

A rocket launcher is any device that launches a rocket-propelled projectile.
This term can be used in reference to any mechanism that is portable and is capable of being operated by an individual. The rocket launchers category includes shoulder-fired missile weapons. A shoulder fired missile is a weapon that is small enough to be carried by a single person and can be fired while held on one’s. The term rocket launcher can also be called a bazooka or RPG. The most common rocket launchers are the shoulder fired missile which we would have seen in many movies or documentaries. These weapons are used in the artillery wing of army and are used by them during time of war or for National Security reasons. The free Army PowerPoint template is set in a spherical share with a grey background with hues of grey rays, and set in the template is the figure of an Army soldier with a shoulder fired Rocket launcher. The template can be used in NCC camps to explain about the different kinds of missiles that are operated by a single person. This Army acu PowerPoint template can be used in Defense forces or Academies to show the soldiers the different working of the shoulder fired missile and the different parts of the missile along with live ammunition. It can be used by students in projects on the different kinds of weapons.

Associate Professor of African American History at Montgomery College
With the passing of Nelson Mandela, public figures have been tripping over themselves to make clear that the United States unequivocally supported Nelson Mandela's fight for freedom. However, as has been documented, many in the U.S. government, including Ronald Reagan and various U.S. senators, backed the South African apartheid government. This support included assisting South Africa to obtain a nuclear weapon.
South Africa initially set out to create its nuclear program in the late 1950s, and in 1957, became the fourth nation to obtain a full-scale cooperation agreement under President Eisenhower's Atoms for Peace program. Throughout the 1960s, South Africa received assistance from the U.S., including supplying it with the Safari-1 research reactor. As a result, South Africa constructed a solid nuclear infrastructure, which became crucial in its effort to obtain a nuclear weapon.
By the next decade, South Africa's political situation drastically changed. The international community, including the U.S., instituted sanctions against the apartheid government and South Africa's nuclear program became one of its first targets. The apartheid regime also feared Soviet expansion and was alarmed by the buildup of Cuban forces in Angola. Isolated, and in need of outside assistance, South Africa began to secretly collaborate with Israel to build a nuclear weapon. However, when it became clear that South Africa was planning on testing the bomb, the U.S., Soviets, and a host of European countries stepped in to ensure South Africa abandon its plans to carry out the nuclear test.South Africa began to end its nuclear program in September 1989 with the election of Frederik Willem de Klerk.
The new president claimed South Africa wanted to join the international community and the nuclear weapons program had become a liability. In November, the government decided to stop the production of nuclear weapons and in February 1990, de Klerk issued written instructions to terminate the nuclear weapons program and dismantle all existing weapons. South Africa added its name to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) on July 10, 1991. However, an ex-South African diplomat offered a different reason for dismantling the program. He explained that South Africa's decision to sign the NPT was "motivated by concern that it didn't want any undeclared nuclear material or infrastructure falling into the hands of Nelson Mandela" and the African National Congress (ANC). Once the ANC took over some wondered if the program would be revived and the country would develop the first "Black Bomb."
Clearly they did not know the man they had imprisoned for 27 years.
Nelson Mandela despised the bomb. The ANC consistently embraced an antinuclear position and for years, led efforts to expose and cancel the nuclear program. Leaders said that nuclear weapons were not part of South Africa's future and on August 30, 1993, Mandela told the South African Institute of Civil Engineers: "The ANC will abide by the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty...We fully support the declaration by the Organization of African Unity calling for the establishment of the African continent as a nuclear-weapons-free zone." | weapons_science |

Shoigu supported this assertion with recent statistical data, underscoring the robust effectiveness of Russian air defenses. According to him, Russian air defense forces achieved a remarkable feat by intercepting and neutralizing a substantial total of 1,400 Ukrainian targets throughout the month of October. Minister Shoigu expounded on these remarkable achievements while addressing an audience in Moscow.
Within this impressive tally of downed aerial targets were 37 Ukrainian aircraft and 6 ATACMS missiles, all meeting their fate during intense aerial confrontations throughout the month. Shoigu emphasized the significant contrast between the number of Ukrainian aircraft downed in October and the quantity of F-16s expected to be delivered to Ukraine. This striking incongruity serves as a testament to the potency and prowess of Russian air defense capabilities. As he stated, “I would like to highlight that the 37 aircraft shot down by Russian air defense in the past month amount to nearly twice the number of F-16 aircraft guaranteed to Ukraine.”

It reached a speed of 25 knots. Equipped with 6 guns of 100mm, antiaircraft guns, and depth charges. A crew of 168 people. It began service on 25 May 1941. It participated in many escorts of convoys, among others, to Mombasa or from Alexandria to Malta. Italian and German Forces fought with the Allies from the sea and from the air. There were losses on both sides. On 24.12.1942, the HMS Southwold was sent to tow a damaged trade ship. During an attempt to give a tow rope, there was an explosion in the engine room of the destroyer. It killed five crew members. The ship slowly began to take on water and sank in two parts. The bow part is larger, it is about 40 metres long and is located on the starboard side at a depth of 70 metres. The bow is well preserved. We can see a double anti-aircraft cannon there. The farther to the midship, the greater the damage. Here we can see fragments of weapons and staff room with equipment. The stern approx. 28 metres long is 300 metres away at a depth of 72 metres. In the recesses of the wreck live groupers, moray eels, and lots of small colourful fish. HMS Southwold from World War II is an interesting point on the map of Maltese wrecks.

You can become a better shot knowing the muzzle blast when firing will not cause you to flinch, or cause damage to your ears.
• An estimated 21 million people are target shooters
Although hearing protection is often recommended, there are still shooters that do not use it. Many may have a hearing loss already. For those with a sensorineural hearing loss, and for those new to the shooting sports without a hearing loss, it is important to protect all residual hearing.
You must protect your ears with quality hearing protection for shooting to avoid hearing damage. You can find the highest level of comfort while receiving long distance sound amplification in one device. The circuit in our device is so advanced it will literally block each blast from a fully automatic weapon. Sounds are compressed at roughly 4 milliseconds with up to 35dB NRR.
Right handed shooters may experience severe to profound high frequency hearing loss in their left ear if not properly protected. This of course is opposite in left handed shooters. The right ear is affected. The butt of the firearm generally helps protect the ear while the damaging sound of the muzzle blast will effect the unprotected ear. This is commonly called "shooters ear".
Pistol fire will damage both ears if proper hearing protection is not worn.
TACTICAL HEARING's shooters hearing protection helps block out sudden noises, such as those created by muzzle blasts, while still allowing you to hear distant sounds and sounds around you. In any situation involving gunfire, you need to protect your ears from muzzle blasts.

President Biden today announced an additional $800 million in security assistance to Ukraine, bringing the total U.S. security assistance committed to Ukraine to $1 billion in just the past week, and a total of $2 billion since the start of the Biden Administration. The assistance will take the form of direct transfers of equipment from the Department of Defense to the Ukrainian military to help them defend their country against Russia’s unprovoked and unjustified invasion.
The new $800 million assistance package includes:
- 800 Stinger anti-aircraft systems;
- 2,000 Javelin, 1,000 light anti-armor weapons, and 6,000 AT-4 anti-armor systems;
- 100 Tactical Unmanned Aerial Systems;
- 100 grenade launchers, 5,000 rifles, 1,000 pistols, 400 machine guns, and 400 shotguns;
- Over 20 million rounds of small arms ammunition and grenade launcher and mortar rounds;
- 25,000 sets of body armor; and
- 25,000 helmets.
In addition to the weapons listed above, previous United States assistance committed to Ukraine includes:
- Over 600 Stinger anti-aircraft systems;
- Approximately 2,600 Javelin anti-armor systems;
- Five Mi-17 helicopters;
- Three patrol boats;
- Four counter-artillery and counter-unmanned aerial system tracking radars;
- Four counter-mortar radar systems;
- 200 grenade launchers and ammunition;
- 200 shotguns and 200 machine guns;
- Nearly 40 million rounds of small arms ammunition and over 1 million grenade, mortar, and artillery rounds;
- 70 High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicles (HMMWVs) and other vehicles;
- Secure communications, electronic warfare detection systems, body armor, helmets, and other tactical gear;
- Military medical equipment to support treatment and combat evacuation;
- Explosive ordnance disposal and demining equipment; and
- Satellite imagery and analysis capability.
In addition to the U.S.-produced short-range air defense systems the Ukrainians have been using to great effect, the United States has also identified and is helping the Ukrainians acquire additional, longer-range systems on which Ukraine’s forces are already trained, as well as additional munitions for those systems.
The United States continues to expedite the authorization and facilitation of additional assistance to Ukraine from our Allies. At least 30 countries have provided security assistance to Ukraine since the Russian invasion began. In 2022, the Department of State authorized third-party transfers of defensive equipment from more than 14 countries, a number that continues to grow as Allies and Partners increase support to Ukraine. | weapons_science |

It is designated to annihilate or disable live force, means of fire and technical equipment, in any terrain and in any meteorological conditions, as well during the day as at night. The rifle shoots single fire series towards targets within 1500 m distance. The Semi-automatic Sniper Rifle operates on the basis of energy use of combusted gunpowder gases which are lead off through the side vent of the barrel. The energy is transferred to the slide (bolt carrier) by a simple short motion of a gas piston. The breechblock is locked by turning. The rifle is adapted for left-handed shooters because the safety lever, magazine release button, breechblock operating lever are placed on the both sides of the weapon. The rifle is characterized by a full interchangeability of its subassemblies and parts (the lack of individual matching) and ergonomics identified with the AR rifles. The weapon features modular construction, very high ergonomics of usage, easily replaceable barrel and folding or steady butt-stock.

The induction of the submarine, built under Project-75, is set to bolster the Indian Navy’s combat capability.
India has been focusing on shoring up its maritime capability with a focus on the Indian Ocean in the backdrop of concerns over China’s growing forays into the region, considered the backyard of the Indian Navy.
Project-75 includes the indigenous construction of six submarines of Scorpene design.
The submarines are being constructed at Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders Limited (MDL) in Mumbai in collaboration with the Naval Group of France.
“Launched on Nov 12, 2020, Vagir commenced the sea trials from February 1 and it is a matter of great pride that she has completed all major trials including the weapon and sensor trials in the shortest time in comparison to the earlier submarines,” Navy Spokesperson Commander Vivek Madhwal said.
The 5th submarine of Project–75 #Vagir, delivered to #IndianNavy on #20Dec 22.
Built indigenously at @MazagonDockLtd Mumbai, delivery of 3 submarines within a span of 2 years is testimony to the impetus given to #AatmaNirbharBharat.@SpokespersonMoD@[email protected]/EMC7CMmip6
— SpokespersonNavy (@indiannavy) December 20, 2022
Submarine construction is an intricate activity as the difficulty is compounded when all equipment are required to be miniaturised and are subject to stringent quality requirements, he said.
Commander Madhwal said the construction of these submarines in an Indian yard is another step towards ‘Aatmanirbhar Bharat’.
He said the submarine would shortly be commissioned into the Indian Navy.
On Sunday, the Navy commissioned the indigenously built guided missile destroyer INS Mormugao.

So I set about to teach them about small arms combat.
The first step was to teach them about how to fight effectively with small arms combat.
Small Arms Combat with LEGOS
First we looked at why mob fighting isn’t effective.
- Your army is only as effective as your bravest soldier
- You do not get the benefit of having friends to fight with you
- You are only as effective as your most skilled warrior
- That skilled warrior can easily be cut down by a single lucky shot.
This is of course an over-simplification, but now let’s look at what ancient Greece discovered to be more effective.
Meet the phalanx. This tactic was created by the Greeks, and improved by the Romans. A phalanx is row upon row of men who are all fighting together as a unit. It becomes extremely effective because as one man tires out he can retreat back through the ranks to be replaced by a fresh soldier.
- Men are much less likely to break and run because they would have to turn around and run through their friends.
- It makes an orderly retreat possible.
- Traditionally your younger less-experienced troops would be in the front and would fight the most and would have the most energy.
- The older more experienced (but less energetic) troops would be in the back and would be able to take over as the youth and inexperience fades.
- Your exposed side is protected by your friend’s shield.
- The shields can be used together to protect more than you could on your own.
But here’s the problems with a phalanx:
- Your phalanx is only as strong as the width and depth of your phalanx. So if you only have enough men to make a narrow phalanx, then you’re in trouble.
- It does not maneuver easily. If your foe can get around the edge of your phalanx, you are dead. D-E-D dead (reference to obscure gaming movie).
Eventually the Romans created a variation on the phalanx called the maniple. It was more maneuverable, and eventually allowed them to defeat the Greeks.
The phalanx lasted as a fighting technique for quite a while. If you notice up through the Civil War you see very similar tactics to the phalanx. With the onset of World War 1 and heavy artillery and trench warfare we see major shifts in how fighting was done.
Teaching Small Arms combat with toy weapons
If you have young boys you have toy swords. In our case we have a lot of them. Especially after we got the duct tape warfare book and the boys were able to make their own weapons. We suddenly were swimming in toy weapons.
This fight is between a short sword (which Romans carried, and most near-Eastern civilizations) and a long sword.
You’ll notice the short sword cannot reach the long sword to fight yet, so the long sword is able to attack sooner. But the long sword is heavier and slower, so the short sword is able to swing more often and will not tire out as easily.
Long swords are effective for giving you reach and is what you most often see in movies. It makes for nice dramatic fights.
The mace is a wonderful weapon for smashing and for fighting someone in heavy armor. Your sword will usually not cut through a suit of plate mail, but a mace or war hammer may well dent that plate enough you’re not getting out of it easily and may well have broken bones.
A mace is also effective at breaking other weapons as it applies blunt force.
Fighting with a small shield.
Unlike in the movies, a small shield is to be used to intersperse it between yourself and the other man’s weapon. It’s not some decorative thing you throw to the side when you want to get serious about fighting.
Notice in this picture Superman is holding the shield and blocking Princess’ sword strike. He can then push her sword away or use it to try and over-balance her. A very useful feature on the battle field.
This is approximating a tower shield. In reality, a tower shield is much bigger on you, but for now, this gives you a good idea of what it is like.
A tower shield provides protection for most of your body, you can hide behind it when you are being shot at, and it makes an effective way to block your enemy’s weapon.
But, a tower shield is heavy. The thing about carrying that around all day long. If you are carrying a tower shield you are not very mobile. You are most likely carrying it and then placing yourself somewhere. It makes a great defense for an archer.
So, that’s our super official small arms combat lesson. It was a lot of fun to do with the kids last spring, and now I’ve got it all official looking so I can make them refer back to it from time to time.

Anti-freedom Politicians and activists continue to exploit a dishonest tactic arguably hatched by Pete Shields, former Chairman of what is now the Brady Campaign, in 1976: demonizing and hopefully banning any gun as a target of opportunity as a means of getting a foot in the door to ban them all. In 1990, the Violence Policy Center, decided that so called “assault weapons” would be the focus of demonization for the anti-gun left:
the public’s confusion over fully automatic machine guns versus semi-automatic assault weapons—anything that looks like a machine gun is assumed to be a machine gun.
It matters not that rifles are used in a tiny portion of all crimes, and that AR-15s are used in a miniscule portion of that tiny portion of all crimes, restricting freedom and disarming the…

Avro Lancaster Mk I
(Featuring some of the Ol'Kunnel's favorite airplanes!)
The Avro Lancaster was a British four-engine Second World War heavy bomber made initially by Avro for the Royal Air Force (RAF). It first saw active service in 1942, and together with the Handley Page Halifax it was one of the main heavy bombers of the RAF, the RCAF and squadrons from other Commonwealth and European countries serving within RAF Bomber Command. The "Lanc" or "Lankie," as it was affectionately known, became the most famous and most successful of the Second World War night bombers, "delivering 608,612 tons of bombs in 156,000 sorties." Although the Lancaster was primarily a night bomber, it excelled in many other roles including daylight precision bombing, and gained worldwide renown as the "Dam Buster" used in the 1943 Operation Chastise raids on Germany's Ruhr Valley dams.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Lancaster evolved from the twin-Vulture-engined Avro Manchester with a fitting of four Rolls-Royce Merlin engines. It became the mainstay of the Bomber Command offensive against Germany during World War II, and later versions were able to carry single examples of Barnes Wallis's gigantic 22,000-lb (9,980-kg) "Grand Slam" bomb for use against special targets. The first Lancaster bombing raid was mad on March 10, 1942, against Essen, Germany. British and Canadian factories completed 7,366 Lancasters, all but 300 of them with variants of the Merlin engine.

1 In the nose, the bomb aimer (American: bombardier) on outward flights would man his turret and keep a look-out for enemy fighters. But, over and near the target he would be rather busy dumping "Window" (aluminum foil to confuse radar) and dropping the bomber's load on the objective.
2 The mid-upper gunner in his hydraulically-operated turret possessed a 36-degree traverse with a taboo track to prevent him firing at parts of his own aircraft in the heat of action.
3 The rear gunner was located within an enclosed cylindrical turret with hinged doors at his back. To bail out he simply turned his turret sideways and pushed himself backwards through the doors.The aircraft graphic above is from the Lincolnshire Aviation Hermitage Centre, East Kirby, Lincolnshire, England. It is fully restored to taxing condition.

Are Russian Made Club-K Cargo Container Cruise Missile Launchers in the U.S.?
● Each Club-K container can be loaded with four ‘Sizzler’ 3M-54-TE cruise missiles (1st stage subsonic, then 2nd stage supersonic on terminal approach to target) or four ‘Switchblade’ cruise missiles. ● Based on a statement by a Russian official representing the Club-K manufacturer, Club-K was conceptualized during a major conflict (likely the Iraq War) as a way to defend against an invader (U.S.) by using shipping containers. ● A single Club-K container armed with four cruise missiles can reportedly destroy an aircraft carrier. ● Defense experts fear that Russia is exporting Club-K container missile launchers to several nations (including China, Iran, Malaysia, North Korea, the UAE, and Venezuela). ● The Jafars hired Iranian-American Siamak Namazi as Crescent Petroleum’s Director of Strategic Planning. ● Namazi is a close associate of Trita Parsi, co-founder of the National Iranian American Council (NIAC), often referred to as the ‘Iran Lobby’ in the U.S.; both Namazi and Parsi worked closely with the Iranian delegations to nuclear talks that culminated in the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) in July 2015. ● Jafar’s Gulftainer is majority owner in a consortium which was under FBI and Department of Defense (DOD) investigation, after being implicated in illicit export activity and money laundering for Iran. ● Dr. Jafar’s nuclear weapons advisor and accomplice was Yevgeny Primakov, former Russian Prime Minister, spymaster, and for years, the Kremlin’s top expert on Middle East affairs and architect of the ‘Islamic Bloc,’ as conceived by Russia. ● Dr. Jafar’s Iraqi nuclear weapons program was a covert Russian-sponsored nuclear weapons program. ● Dr. Jafar directed not only the nuclear program in Iraq, but also technology transfer and illicit procurement for it, including inside the U.S. | weapons_science |

Large Caliber Ammunition Market Insights
Large caliber ammunition includes ammunition with 105mm caliber and 120mm caliber. Large caliber cartridges are generally projectiles. These cartridges are designed for long-range tank engagement and are used for anti-armor weapons. Large caliber ammunition can be classified into spin-stabilized, fin-stabilized, and rocket-assisted, which is a combination of spin-stabilized and fin-stabilized. A majority of the guns use spin-stabilized large caliber cartridges as they offer flight stability using spinning, whereas fin-stabilized projectiles obtain stability through the fins located at the end of the projectile. These cartridges are also used for gunnery training in tank-mounted gun cannons.
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has substantially raised the global security concerns thus opening the growth opportunities for the large caliber ammunition segment. As a result, the large caliber ammunition manufacturers based in the U.S., which is the major hub of munition manufacturing, have ramped up production exponentially, thus positively influencing the target market growth.

The US military and lasers have a complex history: the 'Star Wars' defence plan was essentially scrapped because it didn't work, paving the way for missile shields but military chiefs clearly went home, put on episodes of Star Trek and refused to let the idea of laser canons on their vehicles die.
Proving that one day captains of US military aircraft will be able to say "Lock phasers on target", the US military this weekend successfully blew up a sea-launched liquid-fueled ballistic missile with an airborne laser weapon.
The 'laser canon' was mounted aboard a Boeing 747-400F and shot "directed energy" from the Airborne Laser Testbed (ALTB), consisting of a Northrop Grumman higher-energy laser and a Lockheed Martin beam-and-fire control system."
In layman's terms, the laser canon used a low energy laser to target the missile while a megawatt-class laser locked onto that missile, "heating the boosting ballistic missile to critical structural failure."
Real world applications
While this writer loves the idea of laser-weaponry, mainly through watching Star Wars too many times, the real-world implications of this test is far reaching. It now means that the US military has the potential to be able to target and destroy multiple targets at the speed of light and at a range of hundreds of kilometers.
In a statement, the Pentagon's Missile Defense Agency said in a statement.
"The Missile Defense Agency demonstrated the potential use of directed energy to defend against ballistic missiles when the Airborne Laser Testbed (ALTB) successfully destroyed a boosting ballistic missile," the agency said.
"The revolutionary use of directed energy is very attractive for missile defense."
Cost is one of primary importance to the military as lasers are much cheaper than other technologies used to defeat missiles that could be tipped with chemical, biological or nuclear warheads. Not just that, but the strength of lasers can be altered to allow for potentially non-lethal strikes.
The experiment marks the first time a laser weapon has destroyed a ballistic missile and the first time any system has accomplished it in the missile's boost phase of flight.

For both modes, you will have a overheat gauge. The gauge will go up while firing in auto-fire and while charging in charge mode.
The principle will be that the more the gauge will go up, the more your attacks will be powerful, but you take also the risk to totally fill the gauge (overheat) and then get staggered and take small damage.
Plasma weapons have heat venting; you can lower the overheat gauge with the [R] reload key. | weapons_science |

The bottom end is rounded, while rest of arrowhead forms a triangular shape, and the arrowhead itself has a grey-tan colour of varying shades. There is some chipping to edges of the arrowhead, which may reflect the wear of the arrowhead after having been used. Arrowheads such as MU435 are abundant in the archaeological record, attesting to the widespread use and production of arrowheads in ancient Israel. The arrowhead would have been the ‘projectile’ point - the functioning part of the arrow - and held different uses depending on the context it was found within. Some arrowheads are purely decorative, but more commonly they were used for hunting wild animals for prey in Neolithic times, and used as part of a weapon in a military context as early as the Bronze Age. | weapons_science |

Jim posts on gun control (yet again) and quotes some idiotic pundit who argues that the Fort Hood massacre is a result of lax gun control laws. Setting aside how offensive it is that some blowhard is attempting to appropriate an act of domestic terror to further his liberal political agenda contra-Constitution, he doesn’t even make sense. First of all, he describes the weapon used as a “cop killer gun” which is just absolutely stupid. Are there armor piercing rounds for this gun? Yes. Can civilians buy them? No. Did Hasan use them? No. There is nothing about the pistol that makes it any more likely to be the end of a cop than any other handgun. In fact the gun used, an FN pistol chambered in 5.7mmx28mm, is remarkable only in that the cartridge it fires essentially mimics rifle ballistics instead of typical pistol ballistics. This sounds scary on the surface, but in order to achieve this the bullet actually has to be quite small. This means that the 5.7×28 cartridge basically uses a bullet that is slightly larger than the tried and true .22LR that is popular with children. There is nothing spectacular about this handgun, but because Jim and the people he quotes do not understand firearms they propagate ridiculous myths.
Lets turn now to the idea that gun control is the reason for this shooting. That would basically mean that someone might properly be in the armed forces, but could not be trusted to own a weapon at home. This is just moronic. The real failure here was with the military screening process not with gun control. It is ridiculous to think that the military could clear a person to enter a theater of war, but some domestic law should deny them the right to own a gun. The truth is no amount of screening or gun laws can contain the depravity that resides in the hearts of humans. Laws simply are not effective at stopping gun violence. The UK which has some of the strictest anti-gun laws there are is forced to have police patrol the streets with submachine guns just to contain the gun violence.
The last thing I would like to address is the authors claims that handguns “can be bought as easily as cigarettes.” This tells me an important thing about this writer: He has never attempted to purchase a handgun, nor is he intimately familiar with the process. Laws concerning handguns and rifles are quite different. Even at gun shows background checks are often required! (I’ve personally experienced this!) The truth may be that handguns can in fact be bought as easily as cigarettes by circumventing the laws, and this is exactly the whole problem with gun control. It simply doesn’t work. In the case of Hasan, there would be no reason to screen him from owning a gun if the military okayed, but even if this wasn’t the case there is no reason to believe someone who would kill or wounds dozens of people ( also illegal) would for some reason have qualms about buying a gun off the streets. The gun control we do have is not effective, so why would we think more gun control would help.
I very much understand the appeal of pacifism, and I do respect those Christians who view it as a theological necessity. So please, Jim, make those theological arguments and don’t rely on silly dilettantes to further your views.
*edit* Thanks to Jim for his excellent editing skills. I am just thankful to have given Joel a break from Jim’s red pen. | weapons_science |

We went down to Tucson yesterday and bought it from Sportsman's Warehouse. The title says it all. Its a .40 Springfield XDM. I went out and shot it today, and I absolutely love it. Its smooth, powerful, accurate, and the list goes on. I put around 100 rounds through it without even the slightest hint of a hitch.
|At 16+1 rounds of .40, thats a lot of punch for a medium sized pistol. Any problems I have that involve the use of a gun will not last long!|
|The recoil is very controllable and the gun is SUPER accurate. I can blow over a mountain dew bottle from about 20 yards.| | weapons_science |

Seac Hammer is a very functional underwater dagger that distinguishes itself from the other diving knives because of the stainless steel mallet placed on the end of the handle. The Seac Hammer knife has a total length of 25 cm (nearly 10 inches), of which 12 cm (about 5 inches) of blade is hardened AISI 420 stainless steel, with one side flush slicing edge and one serrated side edge + line cutter. The mallet that features the Seac Hammer scuba knife can be used to draw the attention of the dive buddies, beating it on the cylinder to make noise. The dagger is well balanced and easy to handle. The scabbard has a large release button and allows the diving knife to be stored on both sides. Supplied with 2 straps to fix the scabbard to the leg.
- STAINLESS STEEL MALLET essential to attract the attention of the friends during an underwater dive: just remove the Seac Hammer knife from the scabbard and hit the end of the handle on the cylinder
- NON-SLIP HANDLE: the stiff body of the Seac Hammer scuba diver's handle features a soft rubber overprint for added safety that increases grip when wet with both gloves and bare-hands
- REVERSIBLE FIXING: the scabbard of the Seac Hammer scuba diving knife is fastened with two practical straps (supplied) and allows you to safely place the knife on both sides in various positions
- 12 CM OF TEMPERED STAINLESS STEEL BLADE Made from 420 Stainless Steel and a total length of 25 cm, with serrated edge and line cutter. A hole for fastening a lanyard is provided at the end of the grip
CARE: It is recommended to always rinse with fresh water and to dry well with fabric or absorbent paper both the knife and the scabbard separately after each dive, even if the knife was only worn and not used, since the scabbard is not watertight.

That is a question we need answered as soon as possible.
The deal also locks us into a 50 year nuclear commitment, on the face of it wrecking the window of opportunity for a nuclear rethink won by the deferment of the Trident renewal.
As I see it, it is not possible under the treaty for a country to buy warheads from a nuclear armed power even if is itself a nuclear armed state. All Nuclear states have to build their own warheads. Joint development procedures need to be very carefully
corralled to prevent treaty breaches. We need explanations from the Government as to how this initiative is consistent with our treaty obligations. | weapons_science |

The bill will fully fund a 2.6 percent pay raise for military members, help modernize the nation’s nuclear forces by providing new engines and other upgrades for the B-52 as well as replacements for the nation’s cruise missiles and intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM) and will advance unmanned aerial systems (UAS) operations in the state. The full Senate Appropriations Committee recently advanced the bill and it now awaits consideration on the Senate floor.
“North Dakota’s military members serve in critical missions around the world,” Hoeven said. “Our defense funding legislation helps provide the pay they deserve, while also delivering the resources they need to be effective in their important work. That includes accelerating our efforts to modernize our nuclear forces, ensuring our bombers, cruise missiles and ICBMs remain a credible deterrent. We also invested in our UAS surveillance and reconnaissance operations in Grand Forks as well as research in unmanned traffic management to help advance the safe integration of UAS into our national airspace. This is about supporting our service members and protecting our nation against increased threats across the globe.” | weapons_science |

As one progresses, more formidable creatures that require more powerful weapons and gear arise. This piece aims to examine the strongest weapons and equipment in Evil Hunter Tycoon that will assist players in conquering the game.
A Sword of Steel is a type of weapon typically used in combat. It has a blade composed of metal, usually steel, and a handle. It is a classic piece of weaponry that can be found in many historical contexts.
At the start of their adventure in Evil Hunter Tycoon, hunters will be given the steel sword as their first weapon. It is a great choice for new players due to its effectiveness in taking down weaker monsters. Even as gamers become more experienced, they can still rely on the steel sword as it can be upgraded to improve its damage and attack speed. On top of that, the steel sword is an economical weapon, making it easy to acquire by players of any budget.
The steel sword, when employed correctly, is a useful tool in the later stages of the game due to its maneuverability. It can be improved with upgrades to make it more powerful, but it is not effective against all monsters. Therefore, gamers should think about utilizing other weapons when they come across more challenging foes.
Vanquisher of Dragons
The Dragon Slayer is a renowned armament in Evil Hunter Tycoon that has a reputation for being one of the mightiest weapons. It is not easy to come by, as it can only be procured through completing special quests or activities in the game. Once obtained though, it is of tremendous help to hunters, particularly when taking on formidable monsters.
The Dragon Slayer is an ideal weapon for taking down monsters easily with its tremendous attack speed and damage output. It has the unique property of dealing extra harm to dragon-type adversaries, making it a must-have for players who seek to specialize in hunting dragons. This weapon allows players to inflict maximum damage in a short amount of time, giving them the confidence to tackle even the most difficult monsters in Evil Hunter Tycoon.
A weapon consisting of a bow mounted on a stave with a mechanism that holds the drawn bowstring and releases it to launch an arrow can be referred to as a crossbow.
With the crossbow, players have the ability to engage their foes from a distance, which can be beneficial in certain scenarios. As opposed to melee weapons, which necessitate the user to be close to the monsters, the crossbow gives hunters the opportunity to take down their targets while staying at a safe distance. This ranged weapon has a high critical hit rate and damage output, making it a formidable tool capable of dealing huge amounts of damage to monsters.
The crossbow provides a great degree of customization through upgrades, which can boost its capability to deal damage and attack speed. With these modifications, gamers have a better opportunity of quickly vanquishing monsters and completing quests expeditiously. Moreover, the crossbow is particularly useful when up against aerial monsters, which can be difficult to bring down with melee arms. Its extended reach and power make it the perfect choice for hunters aiming to vanquish flying foes with ease.
A safeguard against potential harm, shield offers a layer of defense to keep what’s important safe. It serves as a protection from anything that could potentially cause trouble.
In Evil Hunter Tycoon, hunters are in need of an extra layer of protection from the monsters they face – and that’s where the shield comes in. The shield helps to reduce the amount of damage taken in fights, and can be further augmented with upgrades. This makes it a vital tool for those looking to take on the most challenging foes in the game.
The extra defensive capabilities of a shield make it especially suitable for tanking monsters. Equipping one allows hunters to draw the attention of the creature, which enables their companions to launch assaults while they protect themselves from the monster’s attacks. This strategy is especially helpful in team fights, where the hunters can join forces to take down the monster quickly.
A magical implement known as a Magic Wand can be used to perform supernatural feats. This wand is capable of producing extraordinary outcomes that are beyond the scope of natural abilities. Its powers can be used to work miracles and cast spells to achieve desired results.
The magic wand can be used to inflict great elemental damage on monsters vulnerable to its element. It has a fast attack rate which allows players to attack their foes rapidly, causing a tremendous amount of harm. When adequately augmented, the magic wand can even take down the most difficult adversaries in Evil Hunter Tycoon.
The magic wand is a remarkable tool due to its proficiency against foes vulnerable to its elemental type. Gamers who concentrate on elemental damage will discover the magic wand to be a necessary weapon in their collection. Through concentrating on monsters vulnerable to the element they’re focused on, they can quickly defeat monsters and move through the game in a more effective way.
Players should take into account the upgradability of the magic wand as a benefit. By upgrading it, they can raise its damage output and attack speed, making it a more potent tool. This investment can bring a return eventually, as the wand will remain a dependable weapon for the whole game.
Protective Clothing of a Dragon
Hunters in Evil Hunter Tycoon are extremely eager to get their hands on the legendary dragon armor. It is a unique armor set that can only be acquired by completing certain quests or events in the game. This makes it a highly sought-after piece of equipment, and any player who is able to obtain it will have an edge in battles.
The main purpose of dragon armor is to give more security and HP to hunters. Its high-level of protection means hunters wearing it are better defended from the attacks of monsters. This extra defense can make a huge difference in difficult skirmishes, where hunters need all the safeguard they can acquire. In addition, the extra HP that comes with the dragon armor allows hunters to withstand more damage, meaning they can stay in the fight for longer.
A mystical garment, the Magic Robe, is an enchanting apparel. It has the power to captivate and transform the wearer. Wearing this robe can bring about a sense of awe and wonder.
The magic robe is a type of armor which provides extra protection from elemental damage for hunters. By upgrading it, they can increase this defense, making it an invaluable asset for those who focus on elemental damage. Especially against monsters that utilize elemental attacks, the robe can drastically reduce the amount of damage that hunters take.
Finally, to make strides in Evil Hunter Tycoon, having the right gear is vital. Players must always be aware of any changes with their equipment and promptly replace it if necessary. This is an essential part of being a great player in Evil Hunter Tycoon.

Bullpups by Shevchenko. From “Smerch” (“Tornado”) to “Bars” (“Snow leopard”) The Soviet arms designers have tried to approach the bullpup layout of small arms quite a while ago. According to data available to the author, this design was first tried in the PTR (anti-tank rifles), which required a long barrel, which in case of classical layout would make the rifle uncomfortable to use. The PTR by Artillery Academy in 1941 is most likely the earliest one. However the birth date of the first Soviet bullpup can be shifted back to 1936-1937. The question of compactness for infantry small arms was of less interest, as Soviet infantry even in case of motorized infantry, would drive around in trucks and few land-lease or captured APCs had and open top. However, as early as first contest, which took place after the end of World War 2, on of the assault rifle prototypes – the TKB-408 by Korobov – was made as bullpup. Notably less information had survived upto present time regarding its ancestor – the 1945 Korovin assault rifle. Ever since, the bullpup small arms was always participating in Main Artillery Department’s contests and would always lose. The “Modern” contest, was announced in 1973 for: “compact assault rifle to arm mortar, artillery, APC personel and other kind of soldiers, who require compact rifle with high firepower”. Even though that the bullpup solution was the most obvious one, most participants form the “old school” design bureaus hade submitted classical but shortened designs. As it is known today, that contest was won by M.T.Kalashnikov, who modified his AKS-74 according to new requirements by reducing the barrel length from 415 to 212 mm. Its almost full unification with the mass produced Kalashnikov model was the decisive argument. Meanwhile, in the process of the contest, another prototype was designed. While fulfilling the contest technical requirements in terms of overall firearm length, the standard 415mm AK barrel was used. This was possible by using bullpup, or as the designer called it “ultra bullpup” scheme. The novel L-shaped chamber locking scheme allowed the receiver to be cut down to 85 mm. The decrease of moving parts travel distance had also allowed for increased full-auto fire rate (up to 1800 rounds per minute). The trigger group allowed single, triple shot bursts and full-auto fire. Due to the center of mass being right on top of the pistol grip, the assault rifle showed great handling and even allowed easy single hand operation. Basically, the projest had many positive sides with only one clear negative one – the designer of the new low-dimensional “Smerch” assault rifle was the your Tula highest artillery engineering academy cadet – A.V.Shevchenko. “Smerch” didn’t go any further, than the prototype with the conclusion: “We don’t need your ideas here, we don’t have time to cast existing ones into metal!” As a result, the army and the police got a shortened version of Kalashnikov and it had all settled down for some time then. Shevchenko’s assault rifle (just like the first Kalashnikov submachine gun) was not put into service. The Shevchenko bullpup story was not over, however. One of the most interesting prototypes was twin-environment assault rifle ADSH (Bars-1). Its no secret that the currently used by special forces special underwater assault rifle APS is “unparalleled” weapon, its out of the water results are not excellent at all – as in terms of distance, accuracy and barrel resource. Meanwhile, even for the divers special forces, it is much more likely to engage in combat on land, rather to meet their “colleagues’ under water. In reality this lead to the operators being forced to carry two types of weapons – for underwater and land operations. This is why, as soon as the “unparalleled” APS gun was made, the USSR designers began to search for a way to bring on land effectiveness up. One of the solutions was to allow APS to use standard 5.45 mm ammo. But later on Tula design bureau staff went further and developed new underwater round – PSP, which had identical dimensions as the standard 5.45x39mm ammo. The small arms-grenade launching complex was also being adapted for this ammo. The result of this job was the new twin-environment assault rifle – ADS. There is enough info regarding the Tula designers prototype in the internet, but its direct rival almost left no trace in the media. With the AKM (Avtomat Kalashikova Modernizirovanniy) with 7.62x39 ammo as base, the Rzhev test ground personnel with A.V.Shevchenko in charge reworked its design to make its operation stable under water. In order to decrease dimensions, it was converted into bullpup, trigger group was changed as well. The PBS silencer was adapted for submerged environment also. And, obviously, the new underwater ammo was designed. Although, Bars main zest was not the ability to operate in two environments. As it is known, the main AK (Kalashnikov) flaw, which forced it to drop out of mi 1940-ies contest, was the full auto fore accuracy from unstable positions. This flaw was not eliminated later either. As it was mentioned in a “National assault rifles” book by Malimon: “The result of tests was: “With a high impulse recoil of 7.62-mm round, there was no real way to decrease hit dispersion with full auto from unstable positions by changing its design.” This was not so bad according to some theories – full auto hit dispersion at long ranges could compensate operator’s errors. The military commanders, however, demanded to increase accuracy at full auto. The “peak” of this struggle was the “Abakan” AN-94 Nikonov assault rifle. The gun carriage scheme that was used, allowed for high accuracy with twin round bursts. The down side was the cuckoo-clock design used, which at time of mid 90-ies economical crisis made its production impossible. However, even if the production was to be made possible, the increase of one of the characteristics at the cost of production easiness and at the cost of complicating its operation and maintenance by the troops was under question. The AN-94 was not even participating in the 2013 new standard military assault rifle contest for the “Ratnik” gear set. Attention now!

The increase accuracy of Bars-1 was reached by using damper automatics and muzzle break-compensator with gas stream compression. Time will show, whether Bars-1 will be able to squeeze out the Tula Ads put into service in 2013. But in any case, being able to choose form 2 good guns is better that having just one option. Bearing in mind, that recently many military guns get certified as civilian. Andrey Ulanov. | weapons_science |

The structure of the army is complex: it is divided into the Regular Army (soldiers on permanent duty) and the Territorial Army (soldiers paid on a part-time basis). In terms of military structure, it is divided into corps, divisions and brigades.
The regiments are the fundamental part of the British Army. They are the largest permanent units of the corps. Normally the regiments or battalions are commanded by a lieutenant colonel and consist of 700 soldiers.
It is the infantry regiment of the airborne troop of the British Army. Compared to the paratroopers of other countries, they are considered an elite force because of the toughness of selection and training. It is organized into three battalions and a Territorial Army battalion.
In 2001 the United States, United Kingdom and other countries (ISAF) collaborate to overthrow the Taliban regime. SAS units participate in the war, as they are prepared for the fight against terrorism. The United Kingdom currently maintains a large contingent in the region.
The British L1A1 magazines have a reinforcement at the muzzle, which although they fit the Canadian C2 and its derivatives from South Africa, India and Australia, do not fit the metric pattern FAL and its derivatives from Israel, Argentina and Brazil (this country produced the IMBEL LAR). The British Army used it in the Falklands War in 1982 against the Argentine Army which used the FAL. It was discontinued in 1985 when it was replaced by the SA80, of 5.56 mm caliber.
The L1A1 rifle is also known by the Canadian Army as the C1, in English as the SLR and in the U.S. as the “inch pattern” FAL. It is a rifle derived from the British Commonwealth’s decision to acquire the Belgian FN FAL rifle. It has seen use in the armies of Australia, Canada, Jamaica, Malaysia, New Zealand, Rhodesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, Rhodesia, and the United Kingdom.
The Allied Rifle Commission decided in the 1950s to standardize on a single rifle and cartridge to be used by all NATO countries. After briefly adopting the No.9 Mk.1 Rifle, with a 7 mm cartridge, the United Kingdom thought it was a good idea to adopt the FAL and the 7.62 x 51 NATO cartridge and so acquired the L1A1 as the standard rifle in 1954. The U.S. Army evaluated the FAL rifle, but ultimately decided against any variant, opting for the M14 rifle instead. | weapons_science |

Narrow tang - this may be fine for kitchen work, but you can expect that a knife with a narrow tang construction wouldn't survive the rigors of any survival activity like chopping wood or pounding its blade down to split small logs.
Folding knives - this also includes multi-tools. A folding knife is not ideal in survival mode simply because it is not strong enough to perform outdoor cutting and slicing activities.
Huge knives - you've got Hollywood to blame for this. Sporting huge monstrosities like Rambo knives is not practical in the sense that a large knife will be unable to do some intricate work during survival situations. You need your survival knife to help you in setting up camp, trapping and hunting, and not in slaying large beasts in just one mighty thrust.
Hollow-handed Knives - while there are exceptions, this is a real liability in outdoor situations. Not only do you need to have a good grip on your knife while doing certain outdoor functions, a hollow-handed knife also means having a narrow tang, which easily breaks when doing heavy work.
What You Want In a Survival Knife Instead
Full tang - this is what defines the real strength of the survival knife. The handle (which is also the tang itself and is a direct part of the blade) is wrapped with some material for comfort. | weapons_science |

Metallurgical Examination of Anglo-Saxon Knives.
During the excavation of the Anglo-Saxon cemetery on Polhill (KAR Number 9 page 2) a number of iron knives. swords and spearheads were unearthed. In these times (circa 600 AD) swords and scramasaxes were made by forge welding thin pieces of iron together, and in some instances as many as forty-three separate pieces were used. The methods ensured a tough and reliable weapon that was highly valued. In a report of the battle of Swanfirth against Snorri, Steinthor found "the fair wrought sword bit not whenas it smote armour, and oft he must straighten it under his foot." For the knives found at Polhill x-ray radiography showed them to consist of only one piece suggesting that their purpose was essentially domestic.
In a metallurgical study of the knives found in the graves 77 and 90 the actual structure of the (G77) knife showed what is metallurgically termed equiaxial ferrite, containing both elongated slag stringers, and other inclusions, probably carbides. Compared with this a piece of the (G90) knife showed considerable variation in the grain size, the outer ones being smaller than those at the centre, whilst in one area some acicular ferrite was evident.
In practical terms, the (G77) knife contained little carbon, less than 0.05 per cent and both knives were forged at high temperatures. In the (G90) knife the forging temperature was less than 90 degrees C and it was hammered manually. Some attempt to harden the knife by quenching in water is apparent, but since the carbon content is so low no increase in hardness is obtained. The hardness of the knives was about 150 V.P.N., which compares with a value of 330 V.P.N from an ordinary present-day kitchen knife.
In conclusion, the knives appear similar to those previously found and confirm the skill of the early smith. | weapons_science |

This blog explored the topic of gun trusts in the past and it is high time to reexamine the matter in some more detail. While it is probably true that most people with a fairly sizable gun collection are hunters and gun enthusiasts, that is certainly not the only class of firearm collectors. History buffs and historical reenactors collect also amass a large collection of firearms. They often loan these items to museums or traveling exhibits rather than use them for hunting or skeet or target shooting.
Many times these rifles hold a lot of sentimental value as it may have been through the Battle of the Bulge or Iwo Jima or have some similar family value. Possessing a firearm, whether it is a historical piece from the Revolutionary War or a hunting rifle, can be a federal as well as a state felony if the transfer is not properly documented or held by a certain class of individuals. In either event, however, the government creates laws regulating the transfer and ownership of firearms. New York has the New York Secure Ammunition and Firearms Enforcement Act (NY SAFE Act), while the federal government has the US Gun Control Act as well as the National Firearms Act, which is actually part of the tax code. | weapons_science |

The FV103 Spartan is a tracked armoured personnel carrier of the British Army. It was developed as the APC variant of the Combat Vehicle Reconnaissance (Tracked) family. The vehicle can carry up to 7 personnel, including 3 crew members. Armed with a single machine gun, it is almost indistinguishable from the FV102 Striker in external appearance. Rather than a general personnel carrier for infantry, the Spartan has been pre-owned for moving specialist teams, such as anti-aircraft missile teams. An anti-tank variant of the Spartan has been produced, named FV120 Spartan MCT; this is armed with MILAN anti-tank missiles. Nearly 500 Spartans have served with the British armed forces since entering service in 1978. The FV103 Spartan was developed during the 1970s as the Armoured Personnel Carrier (APC) version of the British Army's Combat Vehicle Reconnaissance (Tracked) (CVR(T)) family of armoured fighting vehicles, designed by Alvis plc. The vehicle entered service with the British military in 1978. The Spartan is similar in appearance to the FV102 Striker, except for the missile launcher on the Striker. The Spartan was powered by a 4.2 xk jaguar petrol engine. The vehicle is 5.16 metres (16.9 feet) in length and 2.48 metres (8 feet two in) in width. With a ground clearance of 0.33 metres (one foot one in), it has a height of 2.63 metres (eight feet 8 in). As the APC variant of the CVR(T) family, the FV103 has been pre-owned by small specialized groups such as mortar fire controller teams, anti aircraft teams and also reconnaissance teams. The vehicle can carry 7 personnel, in a combination of 3 crew members and 4 passengers or 2 crew members and 5 passengers. It is armed with one 7.62 mm L37A1 machine gun, and can have 4 smoke dischargers on each side. In addition to the APC role, it has also been pre-owned as a resupply vehicle for the FV102 Striker, carrying extra Swingfire missiles. The FV103 has combat weight of 10,670 kilograms (23,520 pound). It can achieve a max speed of 96 kilometres per hour (60 mph) and has a range of 510 kilometres (320 mile). It is capable of negotiating up to 60% gradients. An anti-tank variant of the FV103 was produced; this was named the FV120 Spartan MCT (Spartan with MILAN Compact Turret). The FV120 has a two-man turret, and is equipped with 2 MILAN Anti-Tank Light Infantry Missiles in launch positions, while eleven more can be carried internally. A 'stretched Spartan' design was considered as a future replacement for the FV430, adapted by adding an extra road wheel enabled allowed three more dismounted personnel (7+3 crew), and replacing the Jaguar petrol engine with a Perkins diesel offered greater range. CVR(T) prototype number eleven (a Scorpion) was cut and extended to demonstrate the basic hull could be pre-owned as a ten-man Armoured Personnel Carrier (APC), and a diesel engine fitted. When tests confirmed the stretched version retained the mobility of the basic CVR(T) MVEE then built another prototype from scratch with a wider hull called the FV4333, later renamed Alvis Stormer (Alvis having purchased the design rights). The Alvis Stormer and subsequent developments are described in a separate article. In 2006 it was reported to the House of Commons that 478 FV103 vehicles were in service with the armed forces of the United Kingdom in April of that year, 452 of them in deployable state. By 2007, 495 FV103 Spartans were in the service of the United Kingdom. However, these were being replaced by mid-2009 with Panther Command and Liaison Vehicles. Belgium began using Spartans, along with other CVR(T) vehicles, in their cavalry units from 1975.

Very few firearms have as many devoted fans as the Glock 19 and their compact size lends itself to concealed carry making them particularly popular in that role.
Many consider the Glock 19 to be the perfect blend of magazine capacity and size that is ideal for concealed carry. The Glock 19 is used by citizens and elite military and law-enforcement units alike because of its excellent handling and utilitarian characteristics.
If you’re going to take full advantage of the Glock 19 as your daily concealed carry option you are going to need the best holster you can get your hands on. For many, that means a compact, lightweight inside the waistband holster.
If you are looking for just that, here are the five best Glock 19 holster as well as a few tips and tricks to make sure that you are getting the right holster to your needs and lifestyle.
Conditions of Firearms Carry
Jeff Cooper was a legendary firearms instructor and competition shooter. A former Marine he served as an officer in The Second World War and Korean War eventually retiring with the rank of lieutenant colonel. He taught high school history for a while before starting the American Pistol Institute in 1976.
He is one of the fathers of modern pistol shooting and it’s thanks to him and his contemporaries such as Jack Weaver that we now tend to shoot pistols with both hands rather than the once popular single handed pistol shooting stance.
He also taught the five conditions of pistol carry which we still use today to describe the state of readiness of our firearm.
Condition 4 might be the condition you keep your gun in when it’s in the safe, while the debate between carrying in condition 3 or condition 1 is a never ending one. Condition 3 is also informally known as ‘Israeli carry’. Whatever condition you choose to carry your concealed pistol in make sure you practice making it ready in case of emergency and that most importantly you have it with you.
All five of the holster options on this list have a trigger guard housing that completely covers the trigger and should allow you to safely carry in ‘condition 1’ with practice and care.

If you’re looking for one of the most compact and cost-effective holsters on the market look no further than this kydex design from CYA supply company. Overall, this is an excellent holster at a bargain price despite having a slightly subpar belt clip.
For carrying the relatively compact and lightweight Glock 19 inside the waistband this simple kydex design can be great. One like this will not add any weight or bulk to the gun and make it more comfortable to carry while still being safe.
If you’re on the skinnier side, you might have trouble distributing the weight of this gun along your belt while carrying in the appendix position. However, for the vast majority of people, this holster will do everything you need to as long as your belt is tight around your waist so that the pressure of your belt can help hold the holster in place during your draw.
This kydex holster is very rigid and may be a little bit uncomfortable while sitting, but it is completely maintenance-free and very rugged. If you’re looking for one of the best cheap iwb holsters for a Glock 19, this is an excellent option.
3 OUTBAGS LOB2S-G19 Brown Genuine Leather IWB
If you’re trying to make a statement with a holster for your Glock 19 this old-school leather design is a great choice and for a premium product this one is very cost effective. Leather holsters can cost several times more than standard holsters and many of the same features are present. Working with leather is becoming a lost art in holsters and the really nice ones are getting very expensive.
This is an excellent compromise between quality and price that delivers all the performance of the cheaper options with a high grade leather holster. This holster is comfortable inside the waistband because the leather is more flexible and comfortable up against your skin than kydex or plastic.
The leather won’t mar your guns finished but they can absorb water and sweat and hold it for days, rusting your gun and becoming smelly. Make sure you remove your gun every night to thoroughly dry this holster.
You will need to condition the leather regularly to make sure it stays in good shape but other than that this is a great quality holster. It includes a heavy-duty metal clip and plenty of retention for normal concealed carry.
4 IWB Holster Leather Concealed with Clip
If you prefer the comfort of leather and still want an extremely minimalist design, here’s your answer. This is a very simple leather holster with a simple clip for inside the waistband carry.
The leather flexes and gives with your movement throughout the day and does not cause any of the discomfort associated with rigid plastic or kydex holsters. Few other leather holsters are as low-profile and lightweight as this option.
If there’s a downside to this holster it’s that it doesn’t protect the gun from any outside debris or pocket lint. It also will hold water and sweat against the gun if it gets wet. This could cause your pistol to rust quickly so make sure to dry this holster out thoroughly at the end of every day.
Otherwise, this is a high-quality well-designed holster that is perfect for minimalist concealed carry of your Glock 19.
5 Blade-Tech Industries Klipt Glock 19 IWB Holster
Blade Tech made its name as one of the premier competition holster manufacturers. They make by far the finest kydex products on the market.
This is their ultra low profile clipped holster for the Glock 19. It’s an inside the waistband holster designed to be a minimalist approach to a rugged and reliable holster that is comfortable to carry, day in and day out.
This is an excellent holster for people who just want something that works well and they don’t have to worry about. It is extremely rigid, which is great for supporting the weight of the gun but it can be uncomfortable while sitting down.
The quality and workmanship of this holster are excellent, by far one of the best on the market and the price reflects that. There are cheaper holsters on the market but none are made with the same attention to detail and quality that this holster has. Overall, this is a great holster for anyone looking for an iwb holster for Glock 19.
Supporting the Weight of the Gun
While the Glock 19 is by no means an overweight gun, it is a full sized pistol and isn’t designed specifically for concealment. You may have to change your wardrobe slightly to accommodate the extra weight.
Most notably, a double thickness belt and well-designed holster are in order. The belt needs to be thick enough to support the weight of the gun without bending or puckering and the holster needs to have its belt loops or clips spaced far enough apart to distribute the weight evenly across the length of the belt.
The Glock 19 weighs about 20 ounces fully loaded and is large enough that most holsters do an excellent job of spreading this weight out. The steel core gun belts that are so popular on the market right now are a great choice but they can be a headache for anyone who has to pass through security and can be extraordinarily uncomfortable, especially in dress clothes where the popular gun belts and instructor belts will be out of place, consider resorting to a thicker belt dimensionally rather than a double thickness belt with a core. Switching from a 1 ½ inch belt to a 2-inch belt can be a world of difference, even if you have to find a new pair of pants!
The Glock 19 is one of the most popular modern pistols and especially amongst the current generation of concealed carry permit holders. If you are one of the people inspired by the rugged simplicity and utilitarian nature of the Glock pistol lineup, make sure you get the best Glock 19 holster for yours.
Concealed carry is a skill, not an action. It may feel awkward and weird the first time you head out with a gun on your hip but as time passes you will become more adept at hiding your gun and more aware of the world around you.
Just make sure you get out and practice concealed carrying, you don’t want to be left empty-handed when you really should have brought your gun! | weapons_science |

In this article we will show you the different possibilities available to you.
The categories of weapons are determined by the Internal Security Code in its articles L311-2 and following. There are four categories: A, B, C and D.
The Class A includes the wars of banned weapons acquisition unless special dispensation namely automatic weapons, semi-automatic weapons, high-capacity, war gauges and explosives.
The Class B includes the semiautomatic weapons either handguns or long guns, recently shotguns are part of this category . Some tasers and tear gas canisters are in category B. It requires a prefectural authorization which must be renewed every 5 years .
The Category C covers weapons manual repetition, their acquisition is subject to declaration.
Finally, category D concerns over-the- counter weapons , you just need to be of legal age to get them.
Sport shooting license: The most choices
The shooting license allows the purchase of category B and C weapons . In rare cases, it is possible to obtain an authorization for category A weapons, particularly in the event of international competitions. The shooting license is obtained first by registering at the shooting range with a medical certificate attesting to your ability to practice sport shooting. After registration you will receive your shooting license which you will have to have signed by a doctor.
The shooting license allows you to acquire category B weapons, ie semi-automatic handguns and semi-automatic long weapons in most calibers except war calibers. As already explained above, category B requires obtaining a prefectural authorization (valid for 5 years). To obtain this authorization, it is necessary to have previously participated in three controlled shooting sessions during a year .
It is also necessary to be in possession of a safe or a strong cabinet , you must prove that you are indeed in possession of such an installation by means of a sales receipt or an invoice. ‘installation.
Finally, it is obviously required not to have been the subject of convictions appearing in bulletin n ° 2 and 3 of the criminal record.
When you do not renew your shooting license or your prefectural authorization for category B weapons, you are obliged to give up the weapons concerned.
The shooting license also allows you to purchase category C weapons . This most often concerns hunting weapons (stacked, side-by-side barrels, low-capacity semi-automatic rifles ) and bolt action rifles / rifles . Once the license has been validated by your doctor, you are authorized to obtain a weapon of this category, the gunsmith or the private seller must be responsible for sending the transfer declaration cerfa to the prefecture.
Possession of a category C weapon also requires that ballots no. 2 and 3 be blank. If your shooting license is not renewed, you can keep your category C weapons but you will no longer be able to buy any weapons or ammunition in this category.
If you are looking to acquire your first bolt action rifle, we suggest that you see our articles related to Bushnell and Vortex riflescopes : Bushnell Engage , Bushnell Forge , Vortex Viper PST and Vortex Crossfire II . You can also read our article “How to choose a riflescope for shooting or hunting” via the “Guides and Tutorials” section at the top of the page.
The hunting license and the ball-trap license allow the purchase of only category C weapons. In both cases, a medical certificate is required.
The hunting license is similar to the driving license, it is necessary to pass a theoretical test and a practical test. These two exams are not to be taken lightly and require a bit of work. Some practical test workshops, primarily based on safety, may be eliminatory. Once the hunting license is in your pocket, it must be validated each year, this validation is chargeable. Finally, it is necessary to take out a civil liability insurance contract.
The ball-trap license also allows the purchase of category C weapons.
In the case of the hunting license and the ball-trap license, the non-renewal of one of them does not oblige you to give up your category C weapons.
Black powder guns have the advantage of being over-the-counter and not being registered in any administrative register.
They are less suitable for home defense because of their reloading, but their stopping power is very important. The weight of the projectiles of black powder weapons compensates for their slower speed. Thus a 141grain bullet is 9.1g, with a powder charge dosed at 2.2g fired in a classic Remington 1858 model in caliber 44. will release a kinetic energy of 370 joules at the output of the barrel ( source ). So this amount of kinetic energy is practically the same as that of 9mm caliber projectiles.
Black powder weapons also have an advantage in terms of stopping power. as the warheads are made entirely of lead, a soft material, the energy transfer is much greater compared to modern, harder warheads. Besides, the caliber 44. was used a lot by the cavalry because it was powerful enough to kill horses during battles. Today some American hunters hunt wild boar using black powder revolvers in caliber 44.
The soldiers of the time used to – in order to reduce the effects of humidity on the powder in the barrel – to measure out the powder beforehand and enclose it in a small sausage made of cigarette paper. The paper made it possible to increase the life of the powder by limiting the effects of humidity in the ambient air and therefore to be able to keep a charged barrel for days. Thus the powder sausages were inserted into the barrel, followed by the projectile itself sealed with grease for weapon. They also prepared several barrels in advance so that they could immediately change the barrel and continue the fight.
Black powder rifles are also not left out in terms of long-range shooting because some hunters manage to hit game several hundred meters away. In the video below a hunter manages to take an antelope at 650m with a black powder rifle.
Towards a total ban on weapons in France
For several years we have been witnessing the progressive restriction of access and possession of weapons . Indeed, everyone knows that criminals and terrorists respect the law with regard to the possession of weapons, it is absolutely not a problem of free passage and the absence of border control. It is therefore necessary to prevent any citizen, even respecting the law, from being able to obtain weapons, even to defend themselves since the police are there to protect us. This is the official logic of governments, especially unelected European institutions .
The French Constitution does not provide for any provision allowing the protection of the right to possess weapons. A simple decree is sufficient to recall and destroy all civilian weapons recorded on registers , which is what happened during the Second World War. This is where black powder weapons come in handy .
In any case, we see that even in the United States, a federal state whose Constitution is rigid (that is to say difficult to modify) and protects the right to bear and possess arms, the Democrats manage in the states to restrict these constitutional rights. . American history is special since independence was torn from the crown of England, the conflict at the time opposed civilians against the English government. The founding fathers therefore guaranteed this right in order to allow citizens to protect themselves against despotic and unjust governments. The idea was to arm each household so that any body of the state having the force, however armed and obeying intolerable orders from the point of view of political freedom and human dignity, is confronted. by force of numbers.
The crisis of the yellow vests would have had a completely different outcome if our Constitution allowed the possession of weapons in a manner as liberal as in the United States.
We recently saw in Switzerland a restriction of access to weapons following foreign interference (referendum of May 19, 2019), that of the European Commission . The European Commission has put pressure on and threatened Switzerland with legal and economic sanctions if it does not adopt certain restrictive measures on its arms legislation. Switzerland is one of the most armed countries in Europe, but gun-related violence is almost non-existent.
It is particularly worrying that unelected institutions, allowing themselves to dictate the conduct of third countries, and seek to restrict access to weapons to law-abiding citizens. These restrictive laws are not intended to protect populations but to protect governments. | weapons_science |

Much of the gameplay takes place on foot, but also includes segments focused on vehicular combat. The balance of weapons and objects in the game was adjusted to better adhere to the "Golden Triangle of Halo": these are weapons, grenades, and melee attacks, which are available to a player in most situations. Players may dual-wield some weapons, forgoing the use of grenades and melee attacks in favor of the combined firepower of two weapons. Many weapons available in previous installments of the series return with minor cosmetic and power alterations. Unlike previous installments, the player's secondary weapon is visible on their player model, holstered or slung across the player's back. Halo 3 introduces "support weapons", which are cumbersome two-handed weapons that slow the player, but offer greatly increased firepower in return. In addition to weapons, the game contains a new class of gear called equipment; these items have various effects, ranging from defensive screens to shield regeneration and flares. Only one piece of equipment can be carried at a time. The game's vehicular component has been expanded with new drivable and AI-only vehicles. | weapons_science |

The anti-ship missile will give the fighter jet an enhanced ability to locate and destroy targets at longer ranges from the air, officials from Lockheed Martin explained.
Below is a simulation video demonstrating the capability of the US Military Long Range Anti Ship Missile against Russian navy ships. The Long Range Anti-Ship Missile (LRASM) is a stealthy anti-ship cruise missile under development for the US Navy by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)Unlike any other current anti-ship missile systems, the LRASM has the capability to autonomously target enemy ships, which previously relied on on-board targeting systems that independently acquired targets without precision intelligence, or support from GPS services and data-links. These new capabilities will enable positive target identification and precisely engage moving ships.
Most of the details for the new anti-ship defense system remain a secret but it’s known to be intelligent enough to avoid obstacles between vessels as far as 200 nautical miles out. This is the unclassified range, which suggests that the LRASM capabilities can far surpass that.
Additionally, there are versions of the LRASM in the works that will launch from ships, subs and other aircraft, so the intelligent anti-ship missile system could soon become a commonly used weapon for the US military.

Technology for war should be slowed down. Arrangements should be made to slow down all countries from developing dangerous military technology. The United States and its allies should work hard to create friendly relations and treaties with rival countries to prevent the excessive need for creating deadly bombs. If we get into another deadly major war, the whole human race would be at risk.
Today jets double and triple the speed of sound. These jets are too fast to shoot down. According to The Aviation Geek Club, the retired reconnaissance plane Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird could travel at 2,193 mph. The jet was so effective it was not shot down nor damaged in any hostile actions. Despite the fact this plane did not carry weapons, in the future, a plane like this, likely would.
One day the human race could get exterminated due to powerful bombs. ER Services reported that there were 75 million deaths in World War II, many were attributed to bombs and military weapons. Envision the next major war, where nuclear missiles could kill hundreds of thousands of people. There even would likely be satellites that have nuclear capabilities. Albert Einstein, a scientist who helped create the nuclear bomb, stated “I know not with what weapons WW III will be fought, but WW IV will be fought with stick and stones.” He is saying that technology will be erased due to the destruction of powerful weapons of today’s times.
Missiles have caused stress and fear throughout the world. Missiles have had us near war many times. An example is the Cuban Missile Crisis. This transpired because Russia created an advantage by placing missiles in Cuba within range of the American mainland. In fact, a nuclear torpedo was almost fired at the U.S. by a Russian submarine.
Not only can the Lockheed SR-71 go fast, so can a Russian missile. Military.com states that Russia created the 3M22 Zircon that goes at hypersonic speeds. This rocket can’t be stopped by a traditional anti-missile system. The U.S. Aegis missile interceptor is not quick enough to catch up. There are two options to stop the missile, destroying it at launch or flying an object in its path. Which is not so trustworthy or reliable to me and likely you too.
I understand why you may believe that military technology is very important. Yes, it leads to jobs and more, but is it worth the risk of destruction? The U.S. and its allies should work hard to create treaties and friendly relations with rival countries and enemies, to prevent the use and creation of deadly military weapons. | weapons_science |

“Listen, a nuclear attack by North Korea against the United States or its allies or supporters – partners – is unacceptable and would bring about the end of any regime that takes such a step,” BIden told a conference press with the South. Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol from the White House Rose Garden.
Mr Biden’s comments came just hours after the two leaders announced the Washington Declaration, an agreement between the United States and South Korea aimed at further deterring North Korea’s nuclear ambitions.
Under the agreement, the United States would increase its visible deterrence efforts through the regular deployment of strategic assets, including a US nuclear ballistic submarine. The last time a US nuclear submarine docked in South Korea was in the early 1980s, according to the White House.
Under the agreement, the United States and South Korea will create a joint nuclear advisory group to improve nuclear-related intelligence sharing. It will focus on nuclear and strategic planning issues and give South Korea additional insight into how the United States plans for major contingencies.
“What the statement means is that we will make every effort to consult with our allies when appropriate if action is needed,” Biden said.
North Korea has launched around 100 missiles since 2022, sounding the alarm in South Korea and Japan. Pyongyang has stepped up its ballistic missile tests. Earlier this month, North Korea tested a solid-fuel intercontinental missile, a possible breakthrough in its effort to produce more powerful weapons.
US officials have said North Korea is preparing for its seventh nuclear test, which would be the first since 2017. | weapons_science |

Some local lawmakers are among a group of over 20 Senators who introduced an assault weapons ban in the nation's capitol, on Thursday.
A group of 23 U.S. Senators apparently introduced the Assault Weapons Ban of 2017, in Washington, D.C. The bill will reportedly ban the sale, transfer, manufacture and importation of military-style assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition magazines.
Lawmakers list the following breakdown of provisions of the bill:
• Bans the sale, manufacture, transfer and importation of 205 military-style assault weapons by name. Owners can keep existing weapons.
• Bans any assault weapon that accepts a detachable ammunition magazine and has one or more military characteristics, including a pistol grip, a forward grip, a barrel shroud, a threaded barrel or a folding or telescoping stock. Owners can keep existing weapons.
• Bans magazines and other ammunition feeding devices that hold more than 10 rounds of ammunition, which allow shooters to quickly fire many rounds without needing to reload. Owners can keep existing magazines.
Exemptions to bill:
• The bill exempts by name more than 2,200 guns for hunting, household defense or recreational purposes. This list will be updated to include additional weapons.
• The bill includes a grandfather clause that exempts all weapons lawfully possessed at the date of enactment.
• Requires a background check on any future sale, trade or gifting of an assault weapon covered by the bill.
• Requires that grandfathered assault weapons are stored using a secure gun storage or safety device like a trigger lock.
• Prohibits the transfer of high-capacity ammunition magazines.
• Bans bump-fire stocks and other devices that allow semi-automatic weapons to fire at fully automatic rates.
In a statement, U.S. Senator Tom Carper says, "Congress cannot ignore our country's gun violence epidemic. The names of too many American communities and cities—from Sutherland Springs to Las Vegas, Orlando to San Bernardino, Newtown to Aurora—invoke painful memories of murder and mayhem inflicted by these deadly weapons. In the wake of these tragedies, it's time to renew the ban on military-style assault weapons. These deadly weapons were designed for the battlefield—they have no place in our neighborhoods."
Delmarva Senators included in the group of 23 lawmakers include U.S. Senator Ben Cardin (D-Md.), U. S. Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) , and U.S. Senator Tom Carper (D-Del.). | weapons_science |

Does every Marine get a pistol?

major and higher) are issued a pistol.
All others receive the venerated bang stick, currently the M4 carbine, or a crew served weapon such as a machine gun..

What handguns do Marines carry?
Marine Corps Systems Command began fielding the M18 Modular Handgun System in September. This striker-fired, semi-automatic, 9-mm pistol is based on the Sig Sauer Model P320. The M18 will replace all other pistols in the Marine Corps inventory, including the M9, M9A1, M45A1 and M007.
Do Marines get to keep their guns?
Do soldiers keep their service weapons after they are discharged? The only time a soldier(or service member if you don’t want Marines to get butt hurt) is in possession of a military firearm is when they are training, doing maintenance/cleaning, inventory, or on deployment.
What guns do Navy SEALs use 2019?
For three decades, the U.S. Navy’s Sea Air Land (SEAL) special-forces teams relied on a pistol apart from the rest of the American military. While the Army, the Marine Corps and even the rest of the Navy toted the Beretta M9 pistol, Navy SEALs carried an entirely different handgun altogether: the Sig Sauer P226.
What pistol does John Wick use?
Heckler and Koch P30LJohn Wick’s favorite handgun is the Heckler and Koch P30L. A massive handgun with a whole lot of punch, this weapon tends to leave pretty massive exit wounds in the bodies it is fired at. Wick has used this weapon in all three movies, and each time it is used, it has a devastating effect on its victims.
Why do soldiers not carry sidearms?
Carrying a rifle and a pistol is not practical. Not only would there be the additional weight of another weapon, there would be a basic load of different ammunition for it as well. … In a nutshell, soldiers and civilians are not allowed to wander around armed with their own weapons.
What pistol do Navy SEALs carry?
The Navy’s special operators are preparing to part with the Sig Sauer P228 and adopt the Glock 19 as their sidearm. While SEALs have long carried the P226, the more compact P228 has been a staple among Naval Special Warfare Combatant Craft crew.
Does every soldier carry a sidearm?
Not usually. The rifle is their usual weapon. However, if they work with a crew-served weapon such as a machine gun they might also have a pistol.
Do Navy SEALs get to pick their weapons?
Joseph Votel why it is that Navy special operators are forced buy some pieces of their own gear and to turn in their firearms at various points in the deployment cycle. “They don’t get weapons now to work up with for two years. They get their weapon when a guy comes back,” Hunter said.
What pistol do Army Rangers carry?
The 75th Ranger Regiment and Special Forces units use M9A1s and Glock 19s. SEAL Teams mostly use the Sig Sauer 226. DEVGRU, or SEAL Team 6, does use Heckler & Koch .
What do Marines yell out?
Oorah is a battle cry common in the United States Marine Corps since the mid-20th century. It is comparable to hooah in the US Army and hooyah in the US Navy and US Coast Guard. It is most commonly used to respond to a verbal greeting or as an expression of enthusiasm.
Is Sig better than Glock?
The Sig is appealing to those who desire a slightly shorter handgun and a manual safety or decocker. The lighter Glock, on the other hand, is a little easier to carry on a daily basis. Neither is decisively better than the other, leaving the choice between the two a matter of priorities and taste.
What snipers do Marines use?
The M40 rifle is a bolt-action sniper rifle used by the United States Marine Corps. It has had four variants: the M40, M40A1, M40A3, and M40A5.

The HAES 400 is an autonomous aerial target used to provide a threat-representative target drone to support the Ground-to-Air Weapon System evaluation and test programs.
UAV HAES 400 fact sheet: HAES 400 vehicle (download)
The HAES 400, manufactured by HAES Group (a joint venture of the companies Hacker Model Production and Evolving Systems Consulting), is constructed of carbon fiber and epoxy-based materials.
The HAES 400 is capable of speeds from 80 km/h (49 mph) to 400 km/h (244 mph) true airspeed at sea level.
The drone can achieve flight altitudes from 30 m (100 ft) above ground level to 3,000 m (10,000 ft) mean sea level.
Maneuvers include G-turns up to 20 Gs, and other aerial acrobatic turns.

VLADIMIR Putin today vowed to strengthen his mighty army and supply it with even more weapons as he watched Russia’s biggest war games since the fall of the Soviet Union.
The Vostok 2018 (Восток) drills – taking place in eastern Siberia close to the border with China – involve 300,000 Russian troops as well as joint exercises with the Chinese army.
“This is the first time our army and fleet have undergone such a difficult and large-scale test,” said President Putin.
The exercises, that involve over a thousand military aircraft as well as up to 36,000 tanks, come amid tense relations between Russia and the West that have fallen to a post-Cold War low.
Speaking at the Tsugol firing range about 80 miles north of the border with China, Putin said Russia was a peaceful country ready for cooperation with any state interested in partnership, but that it was a soldier’s duty to be ready to defend his country and its allies.
“Therefore we are going to further strengthen our armed forces, supply them with the latest generations of weapons and equipment, develop international military partnership,” he said.
The Chinese media have described the People’s Liberation Army involvement in the drills as the country’s largest-ever dispatch of forces abroad for war games.
Russia has said it is showcasing methods developed during its military intervention in Syria, giving Chinese forces – which haven’t fought in a war since 1979 – a glimpse of real combat skills.
The five-day mock battles involve more than DOUBLE the number of recruits currently in the entire British armed forces.
NATO has already condemned the war games as a rehearsal for “large-scale conflict” – and experts say they are without doubt the largest in modern Russian history.
“It fits into a pattern we have seen over some time – a more assertive Russia, significantly increasing its defence budget and its military presence,” warned an alliance spokesman.
The Russian army has compared the show of force to the USSR’s 1981 Zapad war games that saw around 150,000 Warsaw Pact soldiers take part in the largest military exercises of the Soviet era.
Yet the drills – to take place across several training grounds – will dwarf even this notorious exercise when it comes to scale.
Military leaders released video footage of military vehicles, planes, helicopters and ships getting into position for the initial stage of the drills.
The jaw-dropping numbers involved in the Vostok-2018 include:
Around 300,000 battle-ready Russian troops.
More than 1,000 planes, helicopters, and drones.
36,000 tanks and armoured personnel carriers.
More than 80 ships and naval support vessels.
An estimated 30 aircraft from the Chinese air force.
Mongolian troops will also join the battles.
Russia has one million military personnel in total.
Putin’s spokesman said last month that maintaining Russia’s defence capabilities is “justified, needed and has no alternative” as rival powers are “frequently quite aggressive and unfriendly”.
The Russian army is rolling out its latest weaponry – Iskander missiles that can carry nuclear warheads, T-80 and T-90 tanks and its recent Su-34 and Su-35 fighter planes.
At sea, the Russian fleet is deploying several frigates equipped with Kalibr missiles that have been used in Syria.
For weeks Russia has been preparing for the drills – at one point closing a road so planes could land near Khabarovsk, and firing missiles from land, surface and submarine at a target in the Sea of Okhotsk.

Base of Operations Washington, DC
During the early 1940s the Russian government had spies in the U.S. that discovered the Manhattan project. With this new information and the stolen technology now in their hands the Russians began their own work on an atomic weapon.
The Russians included chemical and biological technology in their experiments. This resulted in the creation of an intelligent being that could emit radiation and could fire nuclear blasts.
The being disagreed with the Soviet ideology and defected to the United States.
The U.S. took him under their wing and named him A.B.C. which stood for Atomic Biological Chemical.
This was during the time that the U.S. was putting together their first Superhero team “The Allies”. They made A.B.C. an official member.
In the 1950s the U.S. was building a large island in the Atlantic Ocean. Their reason for building the island remains unknown. When a group of superpowered terrorists attempted to destroy the man-made island by creating a kind-of black hole A.B.C. stopped it by absorbing the hole’s energy. He died in the process.
This event lead to the break-up of the Allies. The U.S. abandoned the plans to create the island. The land mass remains there to this day. It has become known as Desolation Island. | weapons_science |

When making ammunition, the projectile is set into the casing and it is crimped or sealed in place. The "neck" of the cartridge has natural tension but the crimp/sealant does the bulk of the work in keeping the projectile in place. It sets the minimum force needed to extract the bullet and serves to lock the case mouth inside the bullet cannelure thus protecting against crimp jump and bullet setback.
Bullet pull strength is the force necessary to separate a bullet from the cartridge casing and is one of the many factors that affect ammunition performance. This force can vary, depending on the type and size of the ammunition and even from cartridge to cartridge within the same type and calibre.
Since repeatability is key to a user’s experience with ammunition, ballistics engineers work tirelessly to produce reliable ammunition that will perform the same way time and time again. If pull strengths are inconsistent around the circumference of the bullet, that variation will often translate into irregular trajectories and impacts for projectiles.
Leading manufacturers of ammunition rely on Mecmesin pull testers to check the neck tension/crimp strength on their ammunition. Of primary interest is the measurement of the force it requires to pull a projectile out of the case, overcoming friction and the crimp feature.
The rim of the cartridge case is held in a slot within a C-shaped lower fixture, tailored to the calibre of the ammunition, and attached to the base of the pull tester. The bullet is then secured in a wedge grip connected to a loadcell. The test is conducted at a fixed rate to ensure optimum repeatability and the maximum force encountered is recorded as the ‘bullet pull strength’ by the software of the tensile tester. The same tester, fitted with an upper compression plate probe is able to also measure the seating force required to push down on the projectile, until it slips back into the case.

The XIIIa is a ~37-40 inches long, with a wide blade, a more rounded (spatulate) tip, and a 6-10 inch grip, and weighed 3–4 pounds (when plain). The offending article annoyed me for the following reasons:
- It claimed that this sword was the dominant weapon of its time.
- It claimed that this type of sword is under-represented in fantasy.
- It ignored the fact that Oakeshott created his system to combat this kind of generalization.
First off, for those of you who have not heard of Oakeshott, he is a key figure in changing the way modern historians, hobbyists, and writers see swords (useful link, if you wish to get into it). Before Oakeshott, medieval swords were often seen as massively heavy, brutish weapons and Knights were seen as clumsy, if invulnerable warriors. TH Whyte’s Arthurian series has a bit of this. Oakeshott’s contribution was to catalog and categorize, and then to point out that from a data driven perspective that the sword changed greatly over the Dark Ages and the Medieval period, mirroring the constant changes in armour as well as local battlefield conditions. His conclusions were that the idea that Western swords were clumsy weapons was not at all based in reality and that there was no such thing as a single dominant sword type. Just look at an abbreviated picture of the sword types he categorized.
Let us take a closer look at the XIIIa
Does this sword shape and size look underrepresented in fantasy fiction? NOPE. Moving on then.
Not only were there many types of sword, but knights used all kinds of weapons (and also crazy armour, too, but we won’t get into that). In fact some had squires to carry around extra lances and extra weapons for them. I am briefly going to go over some of the more common of these weapon types and why they saw use.
The Spear (and lance): The spear is by far the most under-represented weapon in modern fantasy. Don’t even get me started on this. Every Knight worth his salt would have at least a lance or some sort of spear to use from horseback, often with spares in case they broke on the charge. The Spear was likely the one weapon every knight would have at least one of on the battlefield, if only in lance form. It was also the most common footman’s weapon. Spears offered great penetrating power with the tremendous force concentrated on the smallest area. They also offered great reach which was imperative for both charging (hence the lance) and receiving a charge. I would place my bet on spears being the greatest casualty causing battlefield weapon of the middle ages (somewhat behind trampling and suffocation in actual casualties caused though), and possibly the the greatest casualty cause knightly weapon as well. Spears survived the middle ages and even outlived swords on the battlefield as the bayonet. The downside of a spear is that once an opponent is past a certain point, it becomes difficult to wield against them.
I’m going to stay away from polearms for now, although my favourite weapons are probably the swiss halberd and the bardiche.
The Flail: The Flail is a hard weapon to write about. We know it was difficult to use well, but it was not uncommon and had a brutal reputation. Jack White’s Uther is the only character I can think of in Fantasy that uses one of these. Too bad: they almost belong in a grimdark anti-hero’s grasp… We do know that flails were used to strike around shield edges and could work up quite a bit of force whirling around. Hard to describe them in a novel though…
The Warhammer: As plate armour became more common, knights needed better tools to break it open. The warhammer provided a handy set of tools to do just that. Bash the plates out of shape and finish with the spike if need be. Much like a sword, the warhammer could be used when a spear was no longer at optimal range, bashing the brains out of footmen right through their helms and crushing other knights. The warhammer is another under-represented weapon, but maybe that is because in early editions of D&D it did crap damage 😉
The Mace: While the spear does not get its due as a knightly weapon, the mace is outright bloody ignored. I rarely see them in movies, despite the fact that they were so well loved that they appear throughout the period in a stunning number of forms. Flanged maces were created to puncture and crush armour, and ball maces were just nasty. Both existed as shorter footmans weapons that could be used very close up and longer horseman’s versions. Maces were often completely made of metal, and these were far more durable than swords. An added bonus of the mace as a knightly weapon is that it rarely got stuck in a wound. Ceremonial maces are still common in our Parliaments.
Axes: Axes were a more common weapon than many realize, able to work up tremendous cutting power. Axes were favoured for their ability to hack apart shields better than any weapon. They came in a very wide variety as well.
Even in this ridiculously brief and overly generalized discussion of medieval weaponry I think we can put the idea that any sword type dominated the middle ages to rest. Oakeshott created his categories so that people could discuss the incredibly wide variety of bladed weaponry that fell into and out of use throughout the middle ages. He did not create it for people to narrow it down into sword X is better than sword Y in internet fanboy arguments. If there were a dominant family of swords this variety would not have existed, nor would maces, axes, spears, lances, and other weapons been nearly as common. Fantasy writers owe mr Oakeshott a debt of gratitude for showing us that the medieval sword, and indeed all medieval weapons and armour were more than just the clumsy implements those damned fencers told us they were 😉
Finally, let us not forget that Knights wielded a huge variety of weapons, and many of them had the money to afford a tool for every occasion. | weapons_science |

It hit his helmet and glanced off, and the spike at the back of the axe caught his shield strap. Bjorn was wounded in the chest and, secondly, in the leg, but neither was a serious wound.
unarmed man grapples with a man armed with an axe running in under the axe to grapple
He saw that Thorstein was pale, and suspected that he had come as an assassin. He recoiled a little from him, giving him an opening. Thorstein quickly showed what was weighing on his mind; he raised the axe, meaning to drive it into Bjorn’s head, but Bjorn ran in under the blow, for it was just what he had expected.
He took hold of Thorstein by the waist and lifted him up against his chest. Thorstein lost his grip on the axe, which fell down. Then Bjorn flung him down, not gently, so that there was little need to do more, then grasped his windpipe and strangled him until he was dead, for Bjorn had no weapon with him.
Bjorn rushed out at them so suddenly that they were quite unprepared, and he laid hands on them both. There was a great difference of strength between them; it did not turn out as they had intended. He bound them with their hands behind their backs, but left their legs free, and used no weapons on them. Then he stuck their axes under their bonds at the back and told them to go and show themselves to Thord.
- Brennu-Njals saga (Saga de Njáll le Brûlé)
In his hand he had a large axe which he owned, with an iron-wrapped handle.
He went up to the house with his axe on his shoulders – it was quite bloody. Hallgerd was outside and said, « Your axe is bloody. What have you done? » « I’ve done that which will permit you to marry a second time. »
Thjostolf walked around with his axe at the ready and behaved atrociously, but no one took notice of him.
example of parrying a sax blow with an axe
Glum was enraged and struck at him with his short-sword, but Thjostolf put his axe in the way and the blow hit the axe-blade and cut into it the width of two fingers. Thjostolf quickly struck a return blow with the axe. It hit his shoulder and split the shoulder-bone and the collar-bone, and the wound bled internally. Glum seized Thjostolf with his other hand with such force that he fell, but Glum was not able to keep him there because death was upon him.
« Then she was not the cause of it, » said Hrut, and drew his sword. Thjostolf saw this and did not want to be the second to strike a blow, and quickly swung his axe at Hrut. Hrut slipped swiftly away from the stroke and hit the side of the axe-blade so sharply with his left hand that the axe flew out of Thjostolfs hand. With his right hand Hrut swung his sword at Thjostolfs leg, above the knee, so that only a small piece was left holding the leg together. At the same time he rushed at him and knocked him down. Hrut then took a swing at Thjostolfs head and dealt him his death-wound.
Kol charged towards him … and he swung the axe at his head and struck him his death blow.
With that, Atli thrust his spear and hit him in the waist. Kol swung his axe at him and missed, then fell off his horse and died at once.
avoiding a thrown spear by throwing oneself to the ground so the spear passes overhead
Brynjolf walked through the smoke right up to him; the man was furiously at work and did not see him. Brynjolf hit him on the head with his axe, but he moved so quickly that Brynjolf lost his grip on it, and Atli grabbed his spear and threw it at him. Brynjolf threw himself to the ground, and the spear passed over him.
« Now pick up the axe which has been lying here. » Brynjolf made no reply and picked up the axe – but not before Atli was dead.
parrying an axe blow with another axe by chopping through the haft
Brynjolf rode at Thord and swung at him. Thord struck back with his axe, and cut the handle of Brynjolf’s axe in two, just above the hand, and at once struck a second time and hit him on his chest and went deep inside. Brynjolf fell off his horse and was dead on the spot.
« Skarphedin was sharpening his axe, Grim was fixing a shaft to his spearhead, Helgi was riveting the hilt on his sword, and Hoskuld was securing the handle on his shield. »
He turned to face Skarphedin and thrust at him with his spear and it struck the shield. Skarphedin cut through the spear-shaft with his axe and raised his axe again and swung at Sigmund, and it struck the shield and split it down to below the handle.
Sigmund drew his sword with his right hand and struck at Skarphedin, but the sword hit the shield and stuck fast there. Skarphedin twisted the shield so quickly that Sigmund lost his grip on the sword. Then Skarphedin swung at Sigmund with his axe; Sigmund was wearing a corselet, and the axe came down on his shoulder and cut through the shoulder blade.
Skarphedin then pulled the axe toward himself, so that Sigmund fell forward on both his knees, and at once he jumped up. « You bowed to me just now, » said Skarphedin, « and you’ll fall on mother earth before we’re through. »
an axe blow on the helmet is a death blow
Skarphedin struck him on the helmet and after that struck the death blow.
Gunnar had walked away from his house all alone, with a basket of seed in one hand and his hand- axe in the other. He went to his field to sow grain. He put his finely-woven cloak and the axe on the ground and sowed grain for a while.
Skammkel ran up behind Gunnar and swung a great axe at him. Gunnar turned quickly to face him and struck the underside of the blade with his halberd; the axe flew out of his hand and out into the Ranga river. Gunnar went at him with the halberd a second time and thrust it right through Skammkel and lifted him into the air and threw him head first on the clay path.
Onund of Trollaskog hit the dog in the head with his axe, and it went right into the brain.
Hrapp then went ashore with his weapons; in his hand he had a large axe with a handle bound in iron.
He ran at them with his axe raised and took a swing at Hrapp’s leg
Hrapp sprang to his feet … and seized his axe.
Hrapp walked in holding his axe high.
Gudbrand asked, « Why is your axe bloody? »

The old man woke up and said, « It’s a hard thing when you take weapons to me, Gudmund. » « Now I realise for the first time that Einar’s advice to me isn’t well intended, » he replied, « and this probably won’t be the last time. »

a man hears a weapon whistling through the air and avoids the attack
One morning Gudbrand asked him to get him a horse, and walked outside with Thorir behind him. And as Gudbrand came to the threshold he bent down, and Thorir aimed a blow at him, and when he heard the axe whistling, he got himself through the doorway and Thorir’s blow hit the beam which ran from the barge-rafter. The axe stuck fast in the beam, and Thorir ran away out of the yard with Gudbrand in pursuit. Thorir leapt over the river chasm, and lay there flat out. Gudbrand hurled his sword after him and it hit him in the midriff. He had tied the bridle around himself and the sword hit the bridle ring. Gudbrand jumped over the river and ran up to Thorir, but he was dead by then. He threw earth over him where he lay. There were notches made in the sword, and one was the size of a finger tip. The sword was later sharpened; it was the finest of weapons.

Therefore he threw up the shield and the axe, and since he could fight equally well with either hand he caught the shield with his right hand and the axe with the left. Jokul could not follow this manoeuvre and Viglund cut off his right arm all the way to the elbow.

Thorvard, who was a very stout man, sat down. Just as he was sitting down, Thorstein dealt Nadd his death-blow. And when Thorvard tried to stand up, Thorstein dealt him his death-blow before he managed to get to his feet. Then Helgi came out, darted behind a stone which was in the hayfield and defended himself from there. He was both big and strong, and an excellent warrior. Thorstein attacked him, and they fought for a while. But a man called Sigurd the Wealthy, who was in Thorstein’s party, ran towards Helgi and thrust his spear at him. But at the same time, Thorstein hacked at Helgi with the axe, and killed him.

The results of numerical simulations by Dyna-2D are consistent with the conclusions of related studies in recent 20 years. The numerical simulations show that there exists a low-density zone at the inwall of explosively formed cavity or lining, and the density in the zone is lower than its initial one. But the field tests results do not support the above conclusions. Ten field explosive tests are carried out to confirm the density of the media. The results indicate that the densities of the cavity’s surrounding media, formed through either explosive enlargement or explosive lining, are all higher than their initial ones, and no so-called low-density zone exists. The following viewpoints are all mistaken that the density isn’t the highest at the inwall near the cavity, and that there exists a medium zone whose density is lower than its initial one. | weapons_science |

It has since been faded out with the advent of DNA recognition software arms, but it is a solid, multi-functional weapon picked up with great enthusiasm by various military and paramilitary groups.
It is an air cooled, gas-operated pulse-action assault rifle which uses a 10mm caseless cartridge. The round is designed to inflict serious damage, boasting a steel-jacketed, high exlposive armour peircing tip. For even more firepower, the rifle sports an underslung 30mm pump-action grenade launcher. Despite its small size the magazine can hold 99 rounds, though it is usually only loaded with 95 to decrease the chances of jamming. The grenade launcher can hold 3 grenades at once.
The underslung grenade launcher can be removed and a 12 gauge pump-action shotgun fitted in it's place for close quarters and door-entry maneuvers.
The rifle derives its name from its unique firing mechanism which uses electronic pulses rather than a firing pin to ignite its propellant. This lowers the amount of moving parts that the weapon needs to operate, as well as improving its rate of fire.
It also features an electronic LED ammo counter. The rifle is made mostly from lightweight alloys and plastics and its electronics are powered by a lithium battery located in its handle. As a result, it is surprisingly portable and very reliable. | weapons_science |
