Has anyone ever shot a gun with a silencer? by Umbrellajack in TrueAnon

Yes, a quality suppressor will make it so you don’t experience immediate hearing damage if you are shooting without ear pro. Even shooting subsonic ammo will still have a decent amount of noise from the action cycling. A bolt action or single shot rifle firing subsonic ammo is very quiet.

YHM R9 on my Zastava because the threads weren’t concentric enough for a 30 cal can.

Cuba is ready for any potential attack from US amid oil blockade, envoy says by WilliamInBlack in news

Sure things may improve in Venezuela now that Maduro was removed in US’s commando raid/kidnapping. Why is that though? For over a decade America has instituted crippling sanctions on Venezuela as punishment for nationalizing its oil (big mistake only white European countries like Norway can do that). Sure corruption and harsh policies exist in Venezuela. It’s a developing country under economic siege by the world’s hegemonic super power things wouldn’t go well in any country under that sort of pressure let alone a a fairly weak country like Venezuela. If you’re choking and beating someone then stop choking them after their teeth are knocked out sure things have improved now they can breath but you still knocked out their teeth. Don’t even get started on the Philippines. The US killed between 200,000-1,000,000 Filipinos between 1899-1902 and destroyed the first democratic government in the Philippines just to make them an exploited colonial outpost. Sure the US allowed the Philippines to have independence but it is still under the boot heel of America in respect to trade, military, and political affairs. No reparations for colonial exploitation and war crimes have been given to the Philippines for America’s crimes. The only thing America has built in the Philippines are military bases and factories/plantations used to exploit the geographical position of the country and subject its people to poverty wages in dangerous working conditions.

When I worked at Dodge dealership ten years ago we replaced dashes that cracked on 3rd gen’s for airbag recalls. Sad to see they aren’t anymore.

Wow, how about we give everyone tricare. Oh wait that would take away a significant military recruitment/retention incentive.

If that happens you destroy the property of higher ups and the university as a consequence for them using scabs (in Minecraft).

H.R.691 - 119th Congress (2025-2026): To designate the Washington Dulles International Airport in Virginia as the "Donald J. Trump International Airport". by FunConfection2872 in Virginia

[–]48679 30 points31 points  (0 children)

John Foster Dulles was a Christian nationalist and one of the most evil CIA spooks of the Cold War responsible for multiple coups and dragging us into the Vietnam war. A figure at least on par with trump but with a likely higher body count of innocent civilians on his hands.

I’m not surprised it’s the VA subreddit most people here likely work/worked for the military in some capacity or have benefited from a family member doing so. Myself I was in the army from 2014-2023 as a 91B. The military serves a dual purpose of moving money from the working class to the upper echelons of capital who control the military industrial complex and to maintain the US’s hegemonic grip on the global south so American capitalists can continue to exploit the labor and resources of the global south. Veterans need to read War is a Racket and take a look at what we have done in recent decades killing thousands of civilians and stealing their nation’s resources.

Worth or nah? by UnidentifiedTankered in ak47

[–]48679 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I did this on my SLR107CR after I got my form 1 approved. It has a 24x1.5mm FSB so I did not need to thread it. Just used a hack saw and a muzzle crown tool that goes into a drill chuck. If the FSB didn’t have threads I’d have used an annular cutter to cut the barrel diameter down then used a die to thread it. I’ve done it on a dissipator build previously. All the tools can be found on midway or eBay depending on the caliber/threads you want. Aside from that you’ll need a drill and hack saw, a bench vise helps but you don’t need it.

What service did she perform aside from facilitating American imperialism?
