The Weapons Stereotype Thread

[yuki]

You're all dumb. I mean, every idiot knows the easiest thing to handle, clea, maintain, fire, and conceal is an AT4-HS.. you can fit the damn thing in your shirt pocket..

Go back to Call Of Duty.

Plus the bullet picture thing with numbers, #1 is actually the pellet.

[Joker Card]

Just curious, has anyone here ever actually shot a ballistic knife?

[Deathwish]

No, they haven't existed in circulation since the cold war. Even then, less than a hundred were ever made because the utterly silent, and more effective 7.62x39 piston round was made for use in small derringers.

You can't conceal a Mosin Nagant in your pants.

You can if you turn it into an Obrez!!

I'm aiming to build a Fuzzbean .22 short handgun one of these days. I'll prolly need to put a stock and a 20" barrel on it, just so the rozzers don't get me.

Okay now I have three questions
-How do reflex sights work
-Why are they called "reflex" sights
-Are they different from red dot sights, and if so, how?

Okay now I have three questions
1.How do reflex sights work
2.Why are they called "reflex" sights
3.Are they different from red dot sights, and if so, how?

I have to answer these out of order, so check it:
3. A "red dot" sight is a type of reflex sight.
1. Simple holographics. They use clever lights and reflections to project a "floating" point of light inside of the plastic housing of the sight.
2. Because of they way they are built and mounted, reflex sights cannot be used for precision shooting, they were designed solely with the purpose of quickly drawing your gun and shooting at a target - they're meant to be used on reflex, they work as an assist to a shooter that normally has to reflexively blindfire in battle (because you absolutely CAN NOT use iron sights for quickly drawing your gun and shooting). Good marksmen with carbines and handguns actually learn how to aim WITHOUT using their iron sights because you simply can't take the time to line up the frontpost while you're getting shot at. A reflex sight simply makes this an easier maneuver.

I disagree with the suppressor paragraph you made with the OP.

Do rocket launchers or whatever they are normally called have much of a recoil?

[Deathwish]

Do rocket launchers or whatever they are normally called have much of a recoil?

Hand-held launchers have little recoil, because the exhaust gases can escape out the back. This is due to the sheer quantity of exhaust gases involved, if the back vent on the launcher were welded shut, the projectile would be blasted out as the exhaust gases were compressed and force was applied back towards the projectile, and the launcher would go up and over your shoulder, or into your shoulder causing various nasty injuries.

Also, a spread control on a shotgun controls the level of spread. Full is spread, Super Full is videogame spread.
Certain shotguns are designed for the pellets to spray a certain way.

[man of smart]

I bet all the CoD addicts come her to argue everything you said for 65 pages.

[Qwepir]

Oh, thats neat.

whoops

Shotgun pellets have forward velocity, they can't spread like that simply because they don't magically inherit angular force after leaving the barrel.
