Recent Norinco rifle for the PLA replacing the QBZ-95/Type 95 bullpup. Has normal assault rifle, carbine and DMR variants, more info in the attached video.
Thoughts?

Are the variants just different barrel lengths?

>>47
Could they not just sell the same rifle but semi-auto only? If their competitors want to receive a Chinese rifle they can easily aquire one through other means surely, I mean there has got to be hundreds of millions of them in China.

they prolly just sell off the ones that didn't pass quality control lol

Sure, but thats not must what they do afaik

It's like they tried to combine the AK and AR together.

How do you take it from a prepper LARP to a legitimate strategy and contingency plan? From what I understand, plenty of revolutionaries have had to do this through history to survive. It seems like a very important skill to have in the event that you need to evade fash or rapidly declining material conditions during the fall of capitalism.

Realistically, how do you accomplish this? Even in an extremely generous situation where you have your own land in the middle of nowhere, and have the money to buy supplies (clothing, repair equipment, tools) once in a while, it seems nigh-impossible in the modern era. Not only do you have to survive mother nature and construct and maintain reliable shetler and storage, you also have to somehow secure methods of maintaining gun supplies, food, clothing, information, etc. Most of this seems to demand either a lot of money or a lot of crime (which has its own issues with making the local proles hostile to you)

I'm interested in resources and methods of training survival skills (without getting myself killed like a retard).

LARP preppers, which dominate SEO on the subject because their conception of prepping is largely based in consumption rather than sustainability, have main character syndrome and want to Minecraft Steve their way to survival while mowing down all the poors for any excuse they can get.

Real prepping would require a cooperative of some sort, and involve permaculture farming.

The way you take it from LARP to Contingency is writing it down with quantities.

Diesel Generator might be useful, milsurp is usually good.

Some of the comments are important or interesting to look at:
>Generator tech here, if possible you should avoid running your diesel generator under low loads for extended periods, this can lead to something called "wet stacking". A diesel engine needs to run under load in order to burn clean, under no load conditions you'll coke up the engine and shorten it's life. Simply put, you'll want to run your generator at a minumum 25% load whenever possible, and every so often you'll want to run it up to 100% for a few hours to burn off carbon and spooge buildup as well as verify function at rated capacity.
The MEP models had common issues with wet stacking. so run them around a 80% load for around 30mins-1hr at your yearly service date.
>Electrician here; pleased to see that you're adhering to code, and doing a neat, non-lashup job. Attention to detail saves MANY problems down the road. Next: Battery bank + Inverter. Two reasons: 1) initial switchover on power loss is marginally faster, especially if your generator is cold or the outage is a short one, and 2) (more important) You can load up your generator recharging the bank, and prevent carbon depositing in the cylinders - Need to periodically run a generator under heavy load to keep it clean. Downside of a bank + inverter is more cost and more maintenance. If you're NOT getting a bank, consider getting a dummy load that can artificially load up the generator.

>the 400 hertz are for radar systems, namely the SQS-36 Firefinder and ANTPQ-64 Sentinel. Those 10K generators have Yanmar engines and we would run them 24/7 and only shut them down for every 200 hours for oil changes. We had 2 per radar and would switch gens every 200 hours. Each generator would have 4000+ hours on them at the end of a deployment and they would go directly to Toby Hanna Army depot to get rebuilt or what we called a reset. I know those systems like the back of my hand and would by a surplus one in a heart beat.The internal tank is only good for about 8 hours of run time but you can run a line for an external tank.

Those are ass to order from in Europe (particularly Eastern Europe because of customs). Are there no retailers within Europe?

>>4848
All the more difficult considering that under Article 10 - It is forbidden to buy, sell, rent, lease or distribute military uniforms without permission.
The use of military uniforms and standard clothing once equipped by the Chinese People's Liberation Army to conduct business activities is prohibited. So it might not go through customs.

Am I supposed to contact the Chinese embassy for permission lmfao?

Why do we need our own do/k/ument when the do/k/ument already exists? Do you think guns work differently based on the ideology of the wielder?

>>3192
Yeah, I think if we made one ourselves it should be based on theirs with some additions. No need to start from scratch

>>3191
Why do they need to specialize so much in the first place? Isn't this just another form of micromanagement? Make everyone just do one job so they can have a base level of expectation that people can do their job, no matter how shitty or how much it costs?

does anyone have an archive of the-eye.eu/public before it went down? I am specifically looking for the murdercube.com archives

quarterly bump



 

So, after I rerurn ro the ranch for the summer, i'm getting to work building a flashbang grenade. It will be pretty similar to IRL US and British flashbangs. It will essentially be a flashbang charge attached to a fuze assembly from a yugoslav M 84 grenade (those i will get from a friend that works in EOD) without the detonator of course. It should be able to be screwed into a pipe with endcaps that will have holes over it's body so the gases can ventilate during the bang pard. I'm pretty sure I won't be able to fit a front hole so it will probably launch itself a bit due to gasses being forced through one side. It should work on the exact same principle as a factory built one and have the same effect. When I get ro doing it I will post the results.

Here, have the worst schematic ever.
