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. Random twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Low Hanging Fruit thread.

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 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. These include Social media screenshots with a title punchline / no punchline, recent (after the start of the Ukraine War) reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Low effort thread 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.

It was because of the ammo. They tested later with more rounds from the same batch, and those ones also exploded.

I found Kentucky Ballistics after that incident and it's now one of the channels I look most forward to new uploads from. Always love seeing the big guns few people have even heard of and especially the collabs doing Kentucky Roulette.

That entire exploding rifle set of videos is insane.

It was a combination of a hot load, and powder burning too fast, was that right?

[–] mozz@mbin.grits.dev 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

As I remember, it was just too much powder in the cartridge. I could be wrong though.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 1 points 2 weeks ago

OK. I know bad things happen if you put pistol powder in a rifle cartridge.

[–] tilefan@lemm.ee 2 points 2 weeks ago

last I heard he said they used the wrong powder. I'm guessing that means some sort of pistol powder, which burns way too fast for a rifle

[–] Cort@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Lmao, I just watched that video last night! And out of the dozen slap rounds they put through the 2nd one, none caused it to blow, though most made it very difficult to open and reload.

He had to put an extra spicy round in to get it to detonate, but the slap round that originally blew up could have been that spicy.

Put a thumb in it

He's a shill for big body reconstruction

I've always gotten a weird vibe about him with his daughter.
