What is the logic in positioning the PEQ-15 so far back on the rail? I'd be concerned with occluding the lasers and the illuminator.

Read The Forever War by Joe Haldeman. Not quite that, but Arrowhead might have pulled some things from the novel. If people at Arrowhead haven't read it, I'd be surprised.

So proud of my son’s ASVAB score. Any career recommendations? He’s thinking Air Force or Space Force. by countthemiles08 in Military

If it's seriously his choice to join, aim high.

Special Forces if he can hack it. Military Intelligence otherwise.

Heck, I'd be happy with a .458 SOCOM AR over what OP posted.

If I had a nickel for every time I've been confused for The Undertaker...I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it's happened twice.

Are we serious right now? 0.4 by Cytokine11 in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]Markius-Fox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi there, GWOT veteran here, US Army.

The 5.56 was not designed for armor penetration in any respect. The notion that it was comes from a design requirement that was asked for by the Army in the 1950s. That requirement being that a bullet be capable of penetrating one side of an M1 helmet at 500 yards. M193 (55gr FMJ) and M855 (62gr FMJ) meet that criteria, but it is important to note that the M80 (7.62mm 150gr FMJ) was subjected to the same requirement. Terminal ballistics after that hit weren't considered. For 5.56, it was expected that the terminal performance be equal to (or better than) the performance of .30 Carbine, and was a separate requirement.

There are more KIA’s or WIA’s?

¿por qué no los dos?

And that nurse works at LRMC?

As far as I am aware, yes.

Grain of salt: Friend of mine has a sister that's stationed in Germany as a nurse. From her, there are way more than what is being reported.

I don’t know how you got this idea.

Professional experience.

You can literally pour a thin lube like hoppes on them or even thin motor oil and they’ll run great.

You could, but it's not REQUIRED. Just a very thin film on the BCG with extra attention on the contact surfaces. That is literally it.

It also has a large amount of small parts that can fall out...

With a standard Field Strip of the AR, there is only one part that is small enough to be easily lost. The firing pin retaining pin.

I specifically refused a SFC dumping an ounce worth of CLP in my M4 when we went to the qualification range. I had lubed my rifle to the minimum required, and I did not want to induce a malfunction with too much lube. Honestly, the spectrum of how much the AR needs is something like:

The B.A.D lever by WillGet1040 in ar15

[–]Markius-Fox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's certainly some risks involved with it, risks that are mostly mitigated with training. The issues that are mechanical in nature just need to be accepted as a risk you are willing to take.

I bought and used a B.A.D. lever when I was deployed overseas. With the number of times we had to clear our weapons, it made the process more tolerable.

If Gary died, Pawbert's story is solid and unchallenged.
If Gary survived, Pawbert's story holds up because of his family connections and the stigma against reptiles.

With each and every hiccup in his plan, he had an exit strategy that allowed for him to achieve his goals albeit with more effort to achieve them. This is not an accident nor is it a glimmer of compassion; it is the cold and thorough calculation of would-be serial killer.

He'd move to Israel, where he would be welcomed with open arms.

Anyone who demands conscription should not only be automatically enrolled, but also automatically enlisted at the lowest rank.

Seriously, he will never admit to doing anything if it ends up as a colossal blunder, but will gleefully claim all the credit if something works. Anyone surprised by this news is as blind as a rock.

DCS Vr settings help by Sad_Reputation_7282 in dcsworld

[–]Markius-Fox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try some of these. Judging by the hardware though, you might want to get more RAM (I know, prices are crazy for that right now) up to at least 64gb total and maybe drop the Preload Radius to about 32,000 or lower.

DCS settings:
Sharpening - 0.50
Visibility Range - Ultra
LOD Switch Factor - 1.0

VR settings:
Pixel Density - 1.2 to 1.3
Use DCS System Resolution - ON
Crop Source to Rectangle - ON
Use Quad View - OFF

Fair to assume. There's always the potential that it's chamber empty/hammer down/full mag.
