 Can confirm (Singapore), heard on the grapevine that quite recently there was one case involving a sergeant which was on guard duty for firearms negligence after a round was discovered to have went missing; one of the guys he was in charge of accidentally ejected/dropped the magazine (a possible mistake is that it was not inserted properly) from his rifle and didn't check the number of rounds thoroughly afterwards

+Thats what kills me. It’s not that 5.56 is perfect but number of rounds matter and every way since the civil war has shown that. Something with 24-26 rounds isn’t as big of a loss (or weight increase) as going to 20 rounds of 6.8. You keep at least 80% of your total ammo vs 67%. When we inevitable switch back to 5.56 or something that holds 30 rounds or more it’ll be pitched as a 50% increase from 6.8 and makes our soldiers more lethal. Calling it now.

+Couldn't the same performance be achieved with, you know, ultra cheap full steel casings?
+--- 57874074
+>>57873766
+No, because the traditional brass cartridge is achieved through several drawing and ironing steps followed by annealing steps. What you get at the end is a one-piece cartridge where the head of the case is work-hardened, the walls less so, and the mouth of the case is annealed by just heating up that section (military brass is discolored near the mouth and left that way on purpose as part of milspec requirement, commercial cases usually get a final wash and polish). This gives you a case head that can withstand the pressure when backed by the breech, a case wall that expands against the chamber during firing, and a mouth that can be tensioned to hold the bullet on its own, with the crimp being assurance in military settings.
+When you make a full steel case, now you have to use a steel alloy that won't fuck up your extractor but also gives you all these neat properties. You can't really get that, so the compromise is steel cases that don't actually expand as much as brass. You try to now add the performance being achieved with 6.8 Sig and you'll be using an alloy that's going to fuck up all your drawing dies due to hardness and toughness requirements, possibly get all sorts of problems like case ruptures during firing or even damaging the bullet jacket during loading.

It's become a simulacrum of a sword fight where you still win if you boop your opponent a split second before his momentum runs his sword through your neck. It's not that the fencers and, it follows, the shooters aren't athletic or skilled, it's that the sport has become more of a game than a martial art. I suspect it's at least partially why HEMA and stuff like three-gun competitions have been getting more popular over the past few decades.

+Also the problem with trying to rely on paintings and masterworks as being perfectly accurate depictions of reality is the same problem with watching an action movie and thinking it’s a perfectly accurate depiction. Plus the northern Renaissance was all about colorful celebration scenes because they spent most of the year living in a miserable cold swamp and their art was more escapist and bright compared to the Italians sweating their balls off making art about naked attractive people fucking dying.
+
+Plus painters like Bruegel were well-off and well-funded and could afford the ability to make colored paint. And they were making paintings for rich people that liked color. Which is kind of the irony of peasant paintings in general, and what makes Van Gogh’s ugly ass peasant painting period so neat.
+
+Plus the reality is that that inn irl would be so dark the color wouldn’t even be visible. 
+
+Plus you can just like look at all the medieval words for colors, there’s millions of greys and tans and browns and like 4 reds. 
+
+Also poor people would basically be shunned for wearing too much color. Plus they wouldn’t have much occasion to wear a lot of expensive color clothes other than church, which was the place telling them they had to wear neutral colors. Plus even if they did happen to get a woolen shirt dyed it would have looked like a grey or brown or super faded version of the color to the point where it might as well be grey.

+ And once you look into the workings of the thing, you find a lot of the button-pushers and lever-pullers were Joos.
+
+ Remember that Leon Trotsky, (Lev Bronstein), was the Internationalist rather than the Russian in his struggle against Stalin.
+ When he lost, he escaped to where it was safe for a Joo to flee to. Germany was out, so he went London and then the JooSA, and eventually Mexico City until the NKVD finally planted a pickaxe in his head.

+

 it's worth noting the camera distortions are probably an exposure problem and not something related to the cherenokv effect. But it was something that spooked me and made me want to get checked. I haven't been able to replicate them any other time, and the distortions aren't in every photograph. Even in other low light photographs theres no distortion. It's also a gopro not a cell phone I took the pictures with. Don't know if that makes a huge difference.

+1 gy over 12 hours is a hot source. What's worse is that you probably picked most of that up in a much shorter time when you were near the source.
+
+I don't think that it had anything to do with the pictures but that's not my area of expertise. I suppose that it might have. If all of the distortions occurred in pictures taken in one part of the building, that would suggest (but does not prove) that radiation had something to do with it. It would also suggest where the source was.
+
+Now that you mention it, I do vaguely remember that thread. I had questions but I'm not sure if I asked them at the time. Orphan sources and inadvertent radiation exposures are something that interest me and I appreciate you clarifying things for me.
+
+Just thought to add that you should mention this to your primary healthcare provider if you haven't already. My intent is not to alarm you, but studies have shown that high doses across a large population do seem to correlate with an increased risk for some long term health issues, even if that risk on an individual level is very low. Prudence would dictate that you let your doctor know so that you could be screened for things that wouldn't be warranted for the average person, just in case.

+thanks for all your input anon! I'd have to really analyze the photos to tell what parts of the building produced the strongest disturbances. My doctor actually is aware that I had the nonmedical radiation exposure. It's thankfully not caused any problems yet. My head canon is that the NRC came in and removed the source immediately after my outing and didn't publicly announce it. Or the stalker group who came later just simply didn't go to the contaminated area of the building I was in. I find it unlikely since it seems like they did explore it pretty thoroughly. I'm leaning towards there having been some kind of quiet removal of contaminated material. They might not have wanted to dig up and tack on to the safety violation history plus dragging the uranium enrichment factory through the mud again. There could be political reasons they didn't want to tell the public there was a rogue pocket of radiation in their backyard. Lots of people would want that to be as quiet as possible. I didn't fuck any glowing ones, but if they opportunity arises I can't promise I'll be able to resist.

Most people who pick up a Glock aren't going to shoot it as well as other handguns. The best I've seen as far as people picking up a handgun they've never shot before and shooting accurately with it are HKs. I don't personally like them but if you look at the manufacturing process and the engineering behind it, it's undoubtedly a high quality gun. It shoots well, there aren't entire methodologies of training behind shooting something normal like an HK, a CZ, etc. With Glocks there had to be an entirely new methodology established for training. The mags don't seat easily and tend to false lock and drop out on the first shot, handgun training courses now teach to fuck the mags in super hard and tap before racking upon a malfunction. Slide releases are no longer used or taught in training because Glocks, and handgun training is now at least 50% malfunction clearing. You should really ponder why that is...

 The scenarios that either require or heavily favor moving after dark are numerous in the particular environments in which thermal/nv debates become germane. Most people live in cities (large or small). Moving in the day is perfectly fine right up until the moment it absolutely isn't. 
 And if your plan revolves around hunkering in place for the entirety of whatever may come you're risking having a really bad time because hunkering is not the right choice 100% of the time in all but a minority of conceivable cases. Again, while YOU might be in a position to get away with only running thermals, because of YOUR unique situation, for everyone else NVs are the more important first purchase.

 Some people made them to do a mech fight a few years ago. Turns out they are overall pretty slow, and while theoretically tech could be developed to speed them up, there's a general issue of the controls being insufficient for doing precise work quickly at the current time. Even if that was solved, you'd then have issues of condensing multiple posts you have in heavy vehicles like commander, gunner, and driver into a single position putting heavy load upon the operator that is overall suboptimal. Somehow solve all of that, and they still have much more intense ground pressure due to the low contact area with the ground which would fuck them over for most environments, whether damaging roads and concrete when you transport many over it to sinking in normal dirt much less muddy or boggy environs. Further, the overall bracing capacity is inferior to that of a tank while also being significantly taller, so you have a bigger target with less bang and less armor to it.

You just can't shoulder it and come out of a doorway like that without exposing yourself while not aiming at the potential threat.

+But have you? You'd immediately see the difference. Police and soldier's tactics are trained differently, police are definitely more confident with our handguns as we train on them as a primary. I don't feel inadequate with one entering a building clearing scenario, so no I don't really larp as being in a warzone where I always need my rifle. With a rifle it's just too bulky and we can't get around those corners, through hallways, or through doorways safely. We're big on that OODA loop thing, it's huge and almost the entire basis of our gunfight training. It's a hack to win gunfights by staying a step ahead of the threat, it really is important but they likely don't train soldier's much for it. It's less relevant for them, they're not getting into quick close range gunfights in split seconds, but rather firefights where they start taking fire at range.

+You may have to move in an HD scenario, or you may just get home and think someone's inside. Not enough to call out the cops, but enough to spook you enough to want to clear.

+Home defense is basically a meme itself. You're just trying to out-meme anyone who may enter your house. Two scenarios:
+
+- Someone is looking for easy things to pick. They may have scouted your house but they don't expect resistance. The moment they see a gun or hear a gunshot, they fly.
+
+- Someone is dedicated to break in to your house at all costs for whatever reason (grudge, riches or whatever). They won't back down if they hear gunshots or see a gun.
+
+In both scenarios, the moment you contact the invaders, you need to get the first shot in. Even if it doesn't kill, someone who just got shot won't be able to shoot accurately (not everyone is trained to do that). So, pistol is not underpowered. It's ok for home defense.

+Maybe if it was 1914 lol. Shotguns only spread at distance, and the pellets used in standard shot actually have a pretty low piercing power. This why they are commonly used to hunt birds, because the spread at distance is useful and birds can be taken down by just a couple of pellets. Automatic rifles btfo normal shotguns for home defense since at short range the spread on a shotgun is very small and the bullets can actually pierce plate, HOWEVER, a sawed off shotgun is more of what you are describing. Sawed off shotgun spread is wider at short range, but honestly breaking federal law or paying retardedly high taxes for a shotgun with no barrel isn’t worth it. Still inferior at pierceing plate though.

+It's pretty much a meme. You could just shoot from that position one handed. I guess it's going to take a video of a guy shooting himself in the hand/arm trying to be tacticool for you to realize it's not really necessary. It gives you slightly better grip and retention from that stance, but it's for such close quarters (since it's point shooting) that your grip doesn't really matter. It's almost not worth training considering you potentially put your arm in front of the muzzle under stress or even during training. If I'm having to shoot in awkward positions the other arm is being kept out of the way for sure.

+Instructor. The method of quick drawing for a very close range encounter is a quick draw and fire with one hand while the gun is still low closer to the waist. That's how it's taught and it's taught that way because it's quickest and works. Adopting a whole new two handed method that's not very natural of a position, just because it looked cool in a movie, is not a good idea. I'm not the only one who criticizes CAR and your bias towards it is probably because it looks cool, and you don't like what I say because I'm an autist. But what works better works better.

+Absolutely true, it would 1000% be better to have no lining than an improper one, that said I've seen how much abuse the properly chrome lined barrels can take and it's quite impressive. If the lining is applied improperly or surface preparation/acid prep/cleaning processes prior to plating is done in a poorly maintained bath, it is possible for chrome lining to improperly adhere to the steel. Usually what happens is they use the same cleaning solutions and acids for pickling the metal for too long as a cost savings measure and it gets contamination and loses efficacy. If the lining adherence fails it will cause gas blowby as the bullet travels down the barrel, you will lose velocity and a lot of accuracy in the worst case rifle barrels, no producer is immune from this but some basic mitigations make it very unlikely to occur.
+
+>FN, undoubtedly does it right. I wouldn't want some mid-tier chrome lining though particularly since I put more maybe 1,000 rounds a year through an AR; more of a pistol guy.
+They do it right most of the time, easier to work with than colt I imagine given how they took the contracts from them, there is USG scrutiny to force them to do the right thing if cpk drifts or an audit fails, adds cost but lowers the risk of problems in production.
+
+> I wouldn't want some mid-tier chrome lining though... 1,000 rounds a year through an AR; more of a pistol guy.
+Understandable, the thing is that it can be had for the price of most mid-tier ARs, that's why it's recommended so often. Since you already have ARs I wouldnt worry about it much, even a basic 4140 barrel is satisfactory for most and there is better materials for accuracy if that's the goal, I'm certain yours will outlast you shooting 1k a year, maybe a slight accuracy loss as it ages and the bore widens from wear.
