Oedipus Wreckx-n-Effect Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Use Ionized particles, they're far more damaging to living tissue and organic functions. Good thing we don't use any of those in our nerves, who knows what would happen? Also. "Iraqveteran8888's infamous videos on how far will ___ caliber kill seem extremely relevant here. Most rounds easily go out past 400 yards, but 9mm ball will go through ballistic gelatin at 400 yards. They didn't use the gel on the 45acp tests, but it too passes through the same reinforced plywood target. Clearly these rounds are no longer accelerating, which indicates momentum (simplistically energy+mass) does appear to be component factor in "killing power". Sadly, we don't get to see the extreme envelope in terms of range past 400y but accuracy falls way off in pistol rounds out that far." Does anyone want to tell this person that objects tend to not accelerate horizontally in flight? Only vertically (Toward the earth) and negatively horizontal due to friction forces?

Since it's chambered in .38 Auto and not .455 semi-rimmed moon rock I can actually shoot it and use it as a concealed carry piece. LoooSeR and D.E.

LoooSeR Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Recent FSB shooting competition near St.Petersburg. It is one of the main competitions amongst SFs, Police and other services. Video shows only small part of competition - a shooting on a range. My uncle isn't very fond of this part of competition, he live near this shooting range Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brick Fight Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 What is it about communism that made the economy was shit but the education was amazing? As far as economics go, it was lack of exports, problems in diversification of products/materials/manufacturing, and the myriad of cultural and political problems inherent to each little area down to the provincial level. I finally finished Central and Eastern Europe: The Opening Curtain? by William Griffith recently. Despite it being the driest soul-sucking book I've read in a while, the book goes into excrutiating detail on the last economic/political years of communism in Europe.
