Why even have more ammo? You are only shooting this once no matter what

[-] SARGE@startrek.website 42 points 3 weeks ago

You have two hands, you can fire twice.

Assuming you practice how to reload one-armed....

[-] Jumi@lemmy.world 32 points 3 weeks ago

No need, just get two of them and dual-wield. Firing both at the same time cancels out the recoil.

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 17 points 3 weeks ago

Only if it's in opposite directions. Mind your physics

[-] zedgeist@lemm.ee 17 points 3 weeks ago

As long as you don't think about it, physics doesn't matter.

[-] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 9 points 3 weeks ago

Instructions unclear, pinwheeled my spine.

[-] Comment105@lemm.ee 3 points 3 weeks ago

And get caught between two hand cannons? How embarrassing.

[-] jimbolauski@lemm.ee 8 points 3 weeks ago

I'm not sure the barrel will hold up or that you'll be able to find it after it yeets itself out of your hand before you pass out from blood loss.

I feel like that muzzle brake is being asked to do much more than it's capable of.

[-] Cobrachicken@lemmy.world 23 points 3 weeks ago

Reminds me of that memorable day I nearly knocked myself out shooting a .357 magnum. Good thing I wore a helmet.

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 14 points 3 weeks ago

That was me with a 30-06 as a teen. I had only shot .22LR before then, and didn't hold on nearly tightly enough. I got a nice ring on my forehead from the scope...

We all need to learn to respect larger calibers at some point, that was mine.

[-] Uranium_Green@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 weeks ago

Honestly, it takes surprisingly little recoil to do damage.

My dad managed to split his eyebrow with a little .177 BSA 12ftlb air rifle.

He didn't think and rested the scope against his eyebrow; was a blunt, cresent shaped cut. Certainly a good way to learn what not to do

[-] FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

I split my eyebrow with a .22 lr doing the same thing. Glad I learned the lesson on that before my first time firing a .308 or 30-06

[-] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 weeks ago

A serious helmet or a Pickelhaub-style "statement" helmet?

[-] Cobrachicken@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

A real army helmet.

That is a hope gun.

You hope it will fire.

You hope it will hit something.

You hope it will cycle again.

And you hope its sole victim isn't you upon pressing the trigger.

Seems ideal for the age of shooting pistols out of biplanes at each other

[-] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 weeks ago

At least it's not made of bamboo and flash paper.

[-] AlexisFR@jlai.lu 19 points 3 weeks ago

Can you post footage of someone shooting that gun, please?

[-] kboy101222@sh.itjust.works 41 points 3 weeks ago

Can't, live leak's gone

[-] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 11 points 3 weeks ago

Age restricted for gore/violence.

[-] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 17 points 3 weeks ago

"Careful, she'll kick a mite."

[-] passiveaggressivesonar@lemmy.world 16 points 3 weeks ago

We're about to find out what that barrel is made out of

[-] BeMoreCareful@lemmy.world 10 points 3 weeks ago

It'll hold. Send it.

[-] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 9 points 3 weeks ago

Everyone in the world should be issued one of these at birth, but in a locked hand safe with no key. If you're old enough to watch "Lock Picking Lawyer", then figure out how to apply his wisdom, you can have it.

Everyone in the world should be issued a pair of rocket skates at birth. That'll fix every problem we have.

[-] _stranger_@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

I've heard this theory before, but it was three-wheel ATV's. I think you're into something.

[-] djsoren19@yiffit.net 9 points 3 weeks ago

Okay but imagine how badass you'd be to actually take down like an enemy hind or w/e with this bad boy. Legendary.

[-] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

Seems like ramming would almost be less daring lol.

[-] BleakBluets@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

It looks like a Jakobs pistol from Borderlands.

[-] P00ptart@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

That's what you get when you loot a raider in the wasteland before the legendary boss.

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 weeks ago

Is that a scope? That means someone thought that was a feature worth adding...

[-] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 7 points 3 weeks ago

When you only get one shot you want to make it count I guess

[-] P00ptart@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

It's a laser.

A community for your defence shitposting needs

Rules

1. Be niceDo not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.

2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes

If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.

3. Content must be relevant

Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.

4. No racism / hatespeech

No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.

5. No politics

We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.

6. No seriousposting

We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.

7. No classified material

Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.

8. Source artwork

If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.

9. No low-effort posts

No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.

10. Don't get us banned

No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.

11. No misinformation

NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.
