Basically, no. The US tried to come up with a solution with SDI/Star Wars, and wasted $1 trillion on a boondoggle

>>5859
patriot missile batteries have a 75% chance of intercepting an ICBM before reentry and separation, and all that scary stuff. the plan with the US missile shield in the event of a nuclear war, is to launch 4 of them per ICBM. 0.75*4= approximately 97.5% chance of getting a hit or some number close to that IIRC. basically enough to probably protect against a rouge nation like north korea. not sure about the remaining 2% odds. not sure what happens if they get unlucky.

>>5883

Patriot missiles can't stop an ICBM, they are designed to intercept short-range missiles. The US has some missile defense systems that can intercept an IBCM moving at hypersonic velocities but they are not very effective and a country like Russia with thousands of nuclear warheads could easily overwhelm any defense system that current technology can produce.

It's possible that in the future, with major breakthroughs in material engineering, the military could develop working railguns which could potentially be used for intercepting hypersonic missiles, but then the enemy could use that same technology for launching nuclear warheads at hypersonic velocities that even your defensive railguns cannot intercept. This is the fundamental problem - any technology that has the power to defend against a weapon of mass destruction could just as easily be repurposed into a weapon of mass destruction. Technology reaches the point where the weapons are simply too powerful for anything to possibly defend against them and there's no putting that genie back into the bottle.

Metal Gear?!

>>5859
Not yet but AI+Radars could revolutionize missile defence if they develop the ability to detect even from the smallest signature that this is a nuclear warhead and not its decoy. More hypothetical would be swarms of drones to be formed into an aerial minefield that could counter multiple missiles launched at the target.

Mangione showed his face.
Robinson was ratted out by his father.
Its very simple if you don't want to be caught.

Depends on the crime. Never show your face, leave your phone at home, wear unassuming clothing (blue jeans, dark shirt. All black is suspicious. Clothing can be used to hide your build if you're particularly identifiable. Just don't wear what you normally would.), leave no trace, don't tell a soul (that includes people on anonymous message boards.)

If you're so inclined, 3d print a gun. Upper kits (slide, barrel, everything except the receiver) for some glocks can be bought for ~400 USD. They're reliable enough to shoot a magazine without jamming (if you build it right) and not blow up in your hands. Main benefit is they aren't serialized/tracked by the ATF. "ghost guns" or whatever.

One of the most important factors: people. You're infinitely more likely to get away with it if you have nobody close to you at all (family, friends, colleagues, etc.)

The world has never been more surveilled yet people get away with low-profile murders, robberies, etc. more often than you'd think. the US government takes shit seriously but they're not infallible. Unless you're already on their radar (making terroristic threats online, prior criminal offender, etc.) you're probably not being actively monitored. Even moderate attempts to obscure your online identity are better than nothing. just don't be an idiot.

not real (or exhaustive) advice. all jokes

It's not enough to just be smart, you also have to be a sociopath to get away with doing bad things. What if some random child happens to witness your crime? Do you have it in you to kill an innocent child and chop up his corpse to cover your tracks, or would you rather go to prison forever? Are these the kinds of choices you want to be forced to make in your life?

T. Robinson was caught because of his friends and family, and frankly, L. Mangione probably was too.

You know how you can recognize which of your family members is walking around the house purely by their gait? Yeah, masks/clothes/whatever aren't going to help you if your crime is high profile enough for your mom to see footage.

A ghost FPV drone could probably get the job done, but that'll only work once or twice before they start putting jammers everywhere. (Actually, is it possible to put jammers without disabling telecom in general? Maybe it's a catch-22)

Don't think you can go wrong with any of the top brands anyways. Beretta, CZ, Glock, etc.

>>5073
And the best thing about it is that it has a very low bore axis and angled grip work to signigicantly reduce recoil because the more offset the barrel is from the axis of your arm the more it will rotate your arm upwards.

Just get a Glock. I've been through all this nonsense I've tried almost everything on the market. The Glock 19 is the best cc gun ever made and likely will be for a long time. Glock 19mos, get a dot and a light and you are good. You will not be able to shoot anything else better, as measured objectively by a shot timer.

>>5659
I've never fired anything less ergonomic than those boxy pig pistols. Literally anything but a block that isn't gonna blow upnin your hand. I despise those shitty little shit guns, no safety, throwin hot brass in my face, god damn.

the job market is already oversaturated with ex-SOF who are severely overqualified for the job they are working in like maritime security or some shit

*OR*

severely underqualified indian jeet slaves who get paid less than minumum wage to do the job you wish you could do worse than you would do it

the reality is that if your childhood dream was to be a contractor and you are anything except for those two extremes you're fucked and you are forever destined to either die in a hole fighting for some christo-slavic shithole or some other warzone who would never pay you because they're too deep in debt.

Anyway, answering the question, assuming you’re American and wanting to do low level shit, just be a mall cop and eventually find a stateside role in the defense industry. You’ll get a security clearance, and with that you’ll find low level overseas work. Keep in mind you probably won’t find six figure work (although I did lmao) and just be checking IDs at a hot ass gate in the Middle East for 12 hours with one day off. It won’t be glamorous. If you’re expecting warfare, go volunteer in Ukraine retard

Just have a BBC and shoot BBCs out of your BBC

If your life feels hollow and empty now, having hundreds of bodies on your conscience is not the thing that's going to turn your frown upside-down. Go talk to some war veterans and see how happy and well-adjusted they are.

>>5558

why would they bother hiring someone who still needs training?

>>5831
this but you'll probably die in the amazon anyway

long gone are the days of the PMC stationed in afghanistan shooting unarmed brown children and charging 2 million per month

you probably won't see combat either because the moment you engage you'll be drone bombed

bonus points if you're a minority or not a war tourist worth keeping in a cushy drone operator job as a publicity stunt

alternatively you could join the RedditWaffen like >>5982 said
and hope if you don't die in a fox hole you don't get captured by Wagner either

what are some alternative methods to using expensive machinery for making steel parts?

so far i've only found this for barrels

https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2019/08/13/make-a-factory-quality-9mm-rifled-barrel-in-your-kitchen-using-salt-water-and-electricity-ecm

not sure how far printing molds and then casting is useful when building something for a weapon but yeah.

>>5954

this, but how does someone build a workshop from scratch for this? machinery is expensive and if you want something that doesn't blow up on you after a bit there might be better ways than roughing it with power tools.

mostly thinking about that electromachining technique but for let's say we find something for receivers and whatnot

i can live with 3D printers just being useful for furniture and magazines maybe sights, i wonder if you could make your own sight with it.

Printing guns is so easy now, check out the gatalog/ctrl+pew/guncadindex

Basics of metallurgy.
Use Chrome Moly Vanadium or 416R stainless for barrels.

>this, but how does someone build a workshop from scratch for this? machinery is expensive and if you want something that doesn't blow up on you after a bit there might be better ways than roughing it with power tools.

It's not as difficult as you'd think. Just pick a simple design and buy steel tubing and whatever other materials you need and manufacture all the individual parts one by one. You might start with the barrel, that being the most important part and the trickiest, particularly if you want rifling, but even that is doable with some pretty basic tools; see video. I don't know what the laws are about this outside of the US, but in the US you can legally make firearms at home for personal use, you just can't sell them or distribute them without a license.

It will probably take some trial and error and experimentation; you'd need to set up a test firing range a safe area where you clamp your gun down to a stable surface aimed in a safe direction and test fire it by pulling a string to actuate the trigger while standing very far away or behind some kind of barricade. It might be good to start off with something very simple, like a single-shot gun or even a black powder muzzleloader gun, before attempting something more complex. Just be prepared to spend a lot of money on ammunition for all the test firing you'll have to do.

If you want swinging, pounding and stabbing, you shoulda just married my wife.
