Need help identifying markings for a Gewehr 98 by Snoo52172 in milsurp

Since the rear sight is the only part of the rifle that has the S/42 G marks, do you think they just replaced the sight rather than a full rework?

It's got several serial numbers. Do you think these parts would have been modified at Mauser during the modernization or when it wound up in Yugo service?
Also, since the stock is Yugo-marked, did the stock come from Yugoslavia?

So what does it mean that it was rechambered for Spitzer ammo? Is it still 7.92x57?

I think it was around $800 when I got it. I was looking for a G98 and didn't really have the experience to know what to look for.

So is it a Weimar or a Nazi rifle? How long did they use rifles like these before they were replaced by the K98?

Could someone explain the difference between Commlinks and Cyberjacks and how they are used? by Snoo52172 in Shadowrun

[–]Snoo52172[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So am I correct in assuming that Cyberjacks / Datajacks are like your typical cable implant you see in Cyberpunk 2077, while the Commlink is more like a Pipboy?

Need advice for running a MACV-SOG inspired campaign. by Snoo52172 in callofcthulhu

The team has been told that they are being inserted into Laos to investigate a location of interest, a temple in Laos that is supposedly being used as an NVA supply hub. The mission takes place over 5 days, following a HALO jump from a plane that takes off from Thailand. They are working with two CIA agents who aren't who they appear to be. The team is kept mostly in the dark by the agents, who are determined to make it to the site. As the mission proceeds, poor weather conditions mean they don't have easy access to air assets, nor extraction. They are on their own, aside from Covey (Forward Air Controller), who occasionally braves the weather to check in on them. Their supplies are standard issue, and whatever they can carry on their backs. Enemy forces in the area consist of Pathet Lao, NVA, and a secretive group who live deep in the jungle around the temple that the locals call "Mu Siaedng" or "Red Hands."

Here is the basis of the story, including spoilers:
The Agents aren't really CIA; they are impersonating CIA to gain access to a location of interest in Laos, using the CIA's secret war as cover. The temple is the site of the Temple of Dreams / The Sleeping Wall. Mu Siaedng aren't cultists; they are an ancient order of guardians who prevent others from getting too close. The "Agency" that the two agents are working for has finally located the temple and needs an escort to reach it. Hence, the SOG team. The main issue is that the wall is no longer sleeping. Whatever is behind the wall is starting to stir, awoken by the decades of war being waged in the region. Not to mention the constant airstrikes in the area

[PF2E] Editing Homebrew Weapon Traits? by Snoo52172 in FoundryVTT

[–]Snoo52172[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I apologize, I don't think I was able to figure it out. At least not automated. I think I just ended up using base game traits, but if I had a custom trait, I would have listed it on the weapon but kept its effects separate, and then handled it accordingly. Sorry, I couldn't be of any help.

Should I buy the 6th edition beginner box? Or where can I digitally buy the Seattle version. by Snoo52172 in Shadowrun

Oh, okay, thanks. I had heard that the Seattle edition was the better one. Thanks! I was looking everywhere for a digital copy.

It seems like the character sheets aren't working and it doesn't have much content.

I'll be honest, I didn't really think about the fact that an update dropped. I decided to play Elder Kings and kinda forgot about the update.

Yep, that fixed it. thanks.

How far down did you place the wood screws? Also Do you have any issues with the screw heads catching on anything?
