The SPAS-12 is apparently Italian. I always thought it was American.

so is the M4

We like guns from all countries here.

We like good guns. Italy makes some good ones. We like them.

>>212708688
Also I have heard the spas12 is complete dogshit btw, don't know why it features so heavily in video games.

>>212708747
They're waiting for you, Gordon. In the test chamber.

I work at Aimpoint and we make the CompM2 red dot sight, (M68 Close Combat Optic for the burgers) that the USA military uses and a lot more.
Everyone always thinks it's an American company, but we're here in Malmö in our old factory pumping them out for the global market on a daily basis.

I recognized it immediately

>>212708747
Because it looks cool

>>212708866
Probably because aimpoint sounds like a company name a hillbilly would come up with

>>212708760
I just finished playing Black Mesa (the remaster of HL1), and god I really hated the second half of Xen. It was really frustrating and boring to play. It felt like forever.

The game just refused to end

>>212709306
>sounds like a company name a hillbilly would come up with
Because it is. Arne Ekstrand, the man who started Aimpoint was just a rural, hunting, cabin living man who loved inventing random stuff wanted to make better sights because everything on the market was shit (in his words).

>>212708538 (OP)
that's a fucking anti-aircraft gun

>>212708538 (OP)
Come on. Look at her lines. You immediately know she's Italian. Yankee dooddles are boxy and have shit sticking out at all angles.

>>212708736
worst machine gun ever made is italian

>>212710616
doesn't look terrible although i agree its not great. a chauchat, on the other hand, is an ugly machine gun

>>212710672
chauchat at least works in the calibre it was made for. The breda barely works at all

>>212708538 (OP)
How do I learn guns? I want to be able to follow along when military nerds talk.
Is there a book or something with lots of guns? I'm thinking I could make an anki deck for other people to gunnify their lives.

>>212710867
watch forgotten weapons on youtube

>>212710867
i think most just learn from playing video games, check out forgotten weapons that will tach you anything and everything related to guns

>>212710882
>>212710895
Alright, I've subbed to him, but I'm thinking a book would be nice and I could take my newfound skill and channel it into something productive by creating an anki deck so others could also easily memorize them.

>>212708760
>>212709353
The developers thought that the underside tube magazine was a 2nd barrel, that's why they created the double shot function, which makes no fucking sense in a pump shotgun (I know the SPAS is a semi auto as well as being a pump action).

>>212711037
he sells books about weapons

>>212710867
Just browse /k/

>>212711037
Ian is a faggot

>>212708538 (OP)
Wrong

>>212708538 (OP)
Garbage shotgun

>>212710867
join a shooting club, serve in the military, do some hunting. you will only become a typical ackhtually poster without hands on knowledge.

>>212712785
Fuck that, I just want to have conversations, I don't want to go to the military.

>>212708538 (OP)
It's apparently used to shoot at illegals reaching Italy with boats

>>212712829
shooting guns is more fun than talking about them.

>>212712930
But I'm not that interested in guns, I just want to be smarter than everyone else.

>>212713005
you never will be without hands on knowledge.
i dont know all there is about guns but i can brag about that one time i won a national championship in shooting. not saying what branch and year that makes it doxxable.

>>212713005
if this is unironic that's a terrible reason to get into guns

>>212713085
>you never will be without hands on knowledge.
I can live with that. I just want to memorize a bunch so I can follow along in conversations.
>>212713184
Sure, but it's been bugging me for a while that I don't have anything to say when I see other nerds online discuss firearms, and even if the reason is envy, I might as well channel it into something productive.

>>212713302
well gun jesus that you already subsscribed to is pretty good but its nerdy and often useless knowledge. you knowing what year iraq used one specific prototype gun isnt going to impress someone talking about something as basic as the felt and practical differences between hunting with 30-06, 308 or 6,5x55

>>212708736>>212708688

you are going to pay 30% tarrifs to buy them now

>>212713475
I don't want to impress that person either, I just want to win against other skinny nerds.

>>212708538 (OP)
I too forget that Italy was a manufacturing hub.

>>212716389
every german product i bought is pure shit

DOGFUCKING
RAPED
KIKE

>>212716841
>liking Italian guns or products makes you a kike
WTF I LOVE KIKES NOW!!

>>212712845
If only that was true
