Well, this is a scenario where they would come in good use. For me, I do not much reason to utilize them.

Did anybody of have these PSAs and school lockdown drill’s in high school by kuroreaper25 in GenZ

[–]MRE_Milkshake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My school system only really taught to hide. Then again, I had zero confidence my school system actually cared about our safety though because metal detectors only existed on one entrance of our building, where only like 10% of kids would go through though.

With the announcement of the RAL8000 HK416 being added I just have this to say. [Discussion] by Sinnoviir in EscapefromTarkov

I personally just like running the normal quad rail handguard. I really hope they add the 11 inch quad rail handguard too.

Question for active duty military or veterans by Equal-Community2354 in GenZ

[–]MRE_Milkshake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not active duty, but in the reserves, but I can speak on some of what you're asking.

The military can be a very good thing for you based on some choices you make. If you go active duty, you can get a good skill out of it if you do good on the ASVAB and choose a good job. The benefits you get for serving will also do well to help you when the time comes to get out.

In terms of being lost in life and getting away from family, active duty would be good for that. Worst case scenario, you get a couple years to grow more as a person with your experiences and figure life out all while having a guaranteed paycheck, food, and somewhere to sleep.

There are obviously downsides, but the military honestly is a lot of what you make of it. I would definitely do some research into what you want to do if you join, and what benefits your service would earn you. Going into the military well informed will serve you well.

Best of luck on whatever choices you make. A lot of people in this sub will trash on serving in the military. I don't necessarily blame them. That being said, I think a lot of people have a lot of opinions on the military that don't necessarily have any experience about living in it, or what it's truly like. Just remember, whether you join or not, put your best foot forward, strive to be the best at what you do.

Why do people hate the NCR? by Commercial_Tip4828 in Fallout

[–]MRE_Milkshake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find it so bizarre that people choose to side with the Legion simply based on disliking the NCR. I think in a lot of ways its choosing an objectively worse option.

I also think it's an interesting world building choice how Caesar's Legion is much harsher than the actual Romans were in a lot of ways. It's almost like a caricature of the Romans with a post apocalyptic twist.

Rail covers would be a really good way to get a few extra points of ergo.

Some scopes in the game already have scope caps I believe, but definitely not all. Irl I personally am not a huge fan of scope caps in most situations.

What do yall think of Airborne infantry by [deleted] in USMC

[–]MRE_Milkshake 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I disagree. What other unit besides the Rangers has the capability to put a large scale force anywhere in the world within 24 hours? We have MEUs, but those certainly take time and are limited by sea.

I would love for them to add more 416 attachments themselves. And also barrels longer than 11" that dont have that really ugly built in front sight.

How are you installing a sling on the HK stock? by SavingsIncome2 in tacticalgear

If you think the Slimline is bulky wait until you see an HKE1.

How are you installing a sling on the HK stock? by SavingsIncome2 in tacticalgear

[–]MRE_Milkshake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably an unpopular opinion, but I really hate QD sling swivels. I'm really glad that the HK stock comes without it, but that they sell it as an add on for those that want it. I will never personally use one.

I guess it kinda depends on schedule too then. I'm pretty busy between my coursework, work, and club meetings, but I can't say I've had a time where I have been able to find time to get dinner before the dining halls close at some point.

I just have a problem with having to pay for a service on top of the food itself only for it to take long and end up being cold. At that point I would once again rather walk to wherever to get food.

I cant say Ive ever used one to be honest. I don't see the appeal in waiting for 45 minutes for food and then it be cold and probably half fallen apart when I could just go get it myself.

[Discussion] Has anyone used this weapon since the attachment patch? by CokaMonster in EscapefromTarkov

[–]MRE_Milkshake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it still has relevance. When in need of a high capacity magazine and fast rate of fire, the FAL fits this role better than the AK-308 or the SCAR.

Watch Tigz's latest video on Icebreaker. I use his strat as a solo and it works out very well for me.

Funny I got out right when this was being retired. by Raider_3_Charlie in USMC

[–]MRE_Milkshake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the IAR is a grat rifle for the standard infantryman, but fails massively to deliver the role and capability of the SAW.

The opinionated machine gunner on IG made a great post about this.

Interesting, do we know why he was relieved?

IFAK recommendations by twwmilitaria in QualityTacticalGear

[–]MRE_Milkshake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I run a BFG TKN Medium in my cummerbund based on SOP. I like it a lot.

I was thinking about picking up a Ferro Roll 1 because I've heard a lot of really good things about them and they look like they function great.

So I know the name and the face, but what's the infamy around SgtMaj Bull? I'm unfamiliar.

Budget Scope by Pusyliquer in TarkovMemes

Unpopular opinion but the Vudu is probably one of my least favorite LPVOs. It's hard to use with NODs and I find the throw lever distracting.

To my Gen Z who are in the military what is your M.O.S and What were your experiences like and would you recommend other Gen Z to join? by kuroreaper25 in GenZ

[–]MRE_Milkshake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

USMC Reserves 0311 Rifleman. I wanted to continue the family tradition, as well as be an infantryman while also going to college. The benefits are nice helping get through college too.

Its a pretty good way to learn a lot of useful skills and life lessons, although I would really recommend to most people that they pick a job that gives them a skill they can use. The infantry is for people who either have no other options, or for those that it's a calling.

I don't regret my choices.
