>The real fraud, waste, and abuse are the services not paying the slightest bit of attention to human factors. You're footing the bill for disability payments because of their inability to plan or adhere to any kind of standard when it comes to industrial hygiene, ergonomics, etc etc

For one, I believe the US is one of the few western armies which still does fully weighted long distance ruck marches. Virtually all other western militaries no longer do that for general infantry because it eventually destroys your back and knees.

Of course, you could argue that the other countries need to man the fuck up, but it's clear quite a lot of disability payments come from that kind of injuries.

Blank firing adapters for the M2 BMG.

The use of devices in marksmanship training programs are important factors because they may allow the gunner to get an idea of what actual combat is like. The training devices designed for the MG are the M19 blank firing attachment, the multiple integrated liner engagement system, the sighting bar, and the M3 recoil amplifier barrel used with plastic ammunition.
B-1. BLANK FIRING ATTACHMENT
The M19 BFA was developed to permit the MG to fire the M1A1 blank cartridge in the automatic fire mode. The BFA is an easy to install, reliable device that allows the MG to be used more realistically during an FTX. The M19 BFA weighs 15.5 pounds and can be installed using either a crescent wrench or the blank/live round discriminator (a component of the BFA that has been designed to serve as a wrench). The design of the M19 will not allow a live round to be loaded while the blank/live round discriminator cover is in position. Normal headspace and timing must be made when firing blank rounds using the M19 http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/library/policy/army/fm/23-65/Appb.htm

Not Islam specifically but it was once known as "the star of Damascus" and was a common proofmark on swords for a while due to it's association with Damascus steel.

The problem with associating simple geometric shapes to any one thing is they tend to be used for a lot of things by a lot of people over long periods of time. In other words, they're memes.

Yeah, they are persistent. Someone is trying very hard as they are changing their mode of attack every time we block them.

true or not OPERATORS?

recaptcha (google) is including algorithmically generated pictures among authentic photographs in its captcha challenge photos. this is essentially an exercise in training the millions (billions?) of eyes coerced into interfacing with cuckflare/recuckcha to blur the distinction between shopped pictures and real photos to aid in a future coup.

after subconsciously "okaying" shopped images and associating them with actual reality, its no different in principle than being hammered with propaganda - if it is done with any frequency to speak of - and just like propaganda the aim is to proffer non-critical thinking-and-resistance among the populace.

As if there's a noticable difference really. You have your own two eyes to believe what you see and that is about it - you are never safe from deception.

This is an ongoing issue on a number of different imageboards. If you were a dues paying member of the imageboard moderator union with established credentials then you would have access other people's data on this issue and it would be making your life a lot easier right now.

If they are going to ban all pistols in this scenario, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms & Explosives is probably not going to issue any approval or permits for short-barreled rifles (a rifle with a barrel shorter than 16″ or smaller than 26″ overall length) or machine-guns. Or probably not even tax stamps for suppressors or anything else restricted in the National Firearms Act (NFA) of 1934 or the Gun Control Act (GCA) of 1968. My black powder pistols are probably banned in this scenario as well.

People can really get into assembling these guns from kits, components and accessories. How much would something like this cost?

>Commit crime, turn in gun, absolved of crime?
If the crime would be "having a gun" (you found it in a ditch) then it is exactly right. Circumstances do apply there, if you are caught and the evidence points that you possessed it for considerable time, you may as well be found guilty.

>But who watches the watchmen?
You have asked the ultimate question, better avoid doing that in the future.

>That's never been done, and the precedent is that it will never be done, so...
Inevitable things called that because they happen in the end, not in the beginning. Better luck next time.

This should be interesting, as far as I understand it they don't actually have the authority to do this. Anything drone-related falls under FAA jurisdiction, and they're taking their damn time on the regulations there.

The military definitely has the authority to restrict the airspace above installations

There used to be a spring not to far from the top of Mt Rogers, made staying overnight up there really convenient if you had a good water filter. On night in late summer of '93 I was camping up there and there was some fog. It settled in the valleys blocking when little nearby light pollution existed back then and the sky too up the darkest backgrounds I've ever seen east of Mississipi, the Milky Way stopped being a broad haze and took on texture from the thousands of individually visible 6th and 7th magnitude stars. The people who are really dedicated to dark sky stargazing (its a thing, you be surprised how many people are into it) say you can't skies like that any further east than western Nebraska.
Its a nice spot, too bad the rest of the state turned into such an unlivable hellhole

SW VA is awesome when it comes to natural beauty. Very happy I bought a house out here. Even if I move in the future I think I'll keep the house just so I have some place to go when I need to get away.

One of the few structures left standing at the site of the atomic bombing.

Sunday marked 72 years since the U.S. dropped one of two atomic bombs on Japan. On the eve of the anniversary, organizers of a peace event lit up torches on floats on the Motoyasu River next to the Atomic Bomb Dome in Hiroshima.

>Regarding ITAR (have to comply)
>"80% receivers will never qualify for NFA “tax stamp” status due to the fact that it’s never been registered with the ATF, because doing so would require the possession of a manufacturer license.(7,10,11 just one not all) Also, you must pay the excise tax of 11% of the value of the firearm to the internal revenue service and you must be in compliance with (ITAR) international traffic in arms regulations this is controlled by the Department of State."

80% lowers are illegal because RCMP just decided so a few weeks ago. To any other canuck here, my condolences, and please hand over any sufficiently large pieces of wood, plastic, or metal that could potentially be milled into an AR lower to the horse police.
