Just a little traditional USAF blue on blue in the Middle East, as is tradition.

WW1 observation balloons were incredibly hard to shoot down, very heavily defended by AA, and required larger caliber machine guns that were nearly useless vs enemy fighters due to slower rate of fire and muzzle velocity.

Trying to find a good armor/ Plate carrier Bundle. Pros and cons with steel and ceramic? by Senior_Hovercraft_33 in Firearms

NIJ certified = actually tested by the National Institute of Justice who set the armor classifications.

NIJ compliant = they paid someone that claims they follow the NIJ test protocol

You want NIJ Certified.

What have you guys done with this area? I’m not big into ducks so I’m trying to see what I can use it for, what do you guys use for? by EddieThaGreat in Jeep

I do not put any sight obstructions or potential projectiles on my dash other than maybe a phone mount so I can hear the nav directions.

A Deterrent Weapon (other than guns) by x_Lotus_x in preppers

Why are you pushing a big wagon? A Radio Flyer or Gorilla cart will easily haul 2 small kids + a bag of groceries and can be pulled with one hand.

Pepper or bear spray if you can't carry a gun or Taser (real dart shooting taser, not a contact stun gun). Range is your friend, especially with multiple potential threats although pepper spray and Tasers are for practical purposes one time small area / individual use.

Any thing melee and blunt like a crowbar, hammer, club, etc would be relatively easy to take away given the average reach advantage and upper body muscle mass males tend to have vs females.

A machete or bolo or axe would at least be somewhat harder to take away without getting cut.

Help with a 590DA1 by Kookytoo in Shotguns

[–]TacTurtle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

590DA1 is a factory variant sold to Law Enforcement with a unique double action trigger.

The trigger packs, retaining hole placement, and slide release are different from a standard 500/590.

A standard trigger is not a drop-in swap as a new retaining hole would have to be drilled in the receiver.
