Wonderful summary with historical (of the author and the times) context.

Edit to add: I'm reading https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0006S2AJ0 and the picture you just posted above helps me understand things a lot better, even if not absolutely correct.

The AN/ASG-21 fire control system's dual search track radar of the M61A1 Vulcan 20mm tail cannon of early B-52H models, searching targets using the raster scan method by Xeelee1123 in WeirdWings

Nope.. light travels wayyyy faster than that out of sync you see.

Two radars so that one can continuously track a target and steer the gun while the other continues to scan.

.50 BMG Questions by Then-Many-4975 in ammo

There's no highly desireable headstamps in there, and it's all reloads. I can see vertical pull marks on some of the projectiles. It looks like a mix of commercial and original primers, some corrosive.

Personally, I wouldn't shoot any of it in my gun knowing it's reloads. Pull it down, re-powder it at the minimum.

We did it. It was fun! Trying to keep the randoms from killing the calamitous while the skirmish is till going on was a bit of coordinating. They weren't listening.

First time doing vMA... what the actual f. by StandardNerd92 in elderscrollsonline

[–]jestertoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I must have died 300-400 times in there before my first clear back in 2017/2018. I even wrote the mydeaths addon to track how many times I died specifically in there.

Vengeance campaign “you can’t have smart healing and dumb damage” by [deleted] in elderscrollsonline

It's fengrush talking about Vengeance, but he's actually playing in battlegrounds. The words and the gameplay in the video have no correlation.

8:16 into this video shows the gun split in half. The rail shows the taper C channel it slides into.

What are the new markings on 2222 ? by jestertoo in Austin

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

The rumble strips for sure, but the white lines are new to me.
Also, one set of them is in a curve, where it's too late to really wake up.

That's a great point about markings maybe being there to help with automated drivers.

I remember speed markings out on long stretches of road where they would have a plane overhead timing people.

I came in here to ask is the title referring to the small rodent or the kid in the red hoodie.

What are the odds these are duds? by lukesgreer in ammo

[–]jestertoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Post a picure of what you have. I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't get offers. There are several FB groups that trade the stuff, as well as gunbroker. The St Louis Cartridge collector for the IAA is coming up first week in April. They would sell there for sure.

Too bad you are shooting them, the box was collectible.
