>counter-mass consists of shredded plastic
How the fuck did this thing get the CE mark?

>>64097275 (OP)
It doesn't appear to be in a category requiring one.

>>64097275 (OP)
Military kit is exempt from environmental protection laws and has been since the start of environmental protection laws.

>>64097275 (OP)
>RGW 60
kino

>>64097293
Well it should. CE marks should extend to boolets, tanks, anti tank weaponry, guns, missiles, jets and more.

>>64097275 (OP)
Whats B POS?
This isn't some femboy shit is it?

>>64097306
Lots of products don't need it. Show proofs similar items have a CE, and going back to the original post show proofs the MATADOR has a CE if you're so butthurt about it. Which you aren't really, you're just bored on the internet.

>>64097310
Are you retarded?

>nobody has mentioned the foam on the launcher
not too many people familiar with materials on this board i see

>>64097336
What's wrong with it?

>>64097275 (OP)
Do you think an anti-tank weapon is concerned about environmental safety?

>>64097336
Doesn't get shredded and spread the fuck around now does it??

>>64097361
It should be. Spreading shredded pllastic far and wide is fould

>>64097356
>>64097363
just pointing out that nobody mentions it, that's all

>>64097336
Foam while shit is still used everywhere for just about everything.

There should be a law passed to prevent these things from spreading burnt plastic all over the place. Its unhealthy and bad for the environment.

Can you claim service related injury if you get lung cancer from breathing in the back blast?

>>64097371
And aerosolizing heavy metals from dead tanks is good for the environment, how?

>>64097371
The frontlines in Ukraine are littered with extremely durable fiber optic cables tens of kilometers long. Not to mention the mines. Plastic is NOTHING. The microplastic thing is a dumb fad.

>>64097405
At least optic fibre is glass aka silicon dioxide aka sand.

>>64097405
kek imagine being the chump who has to lay thousands of kilometers of lines only the commanders to decide to move

>>64097433
So? It won't go away on its own, not for the next ~10,000 years at least

>>64097441
It'll break into small pieces, get eroded down and be sand before a plastic cup loses it's color.

>>64097440
The fiber optic cables are from the guide-by-wire drones you retard.

>>64097275 (OP)
What other counter-mass launchers are there aside from this and the AT4-CS?
>>64097455
No reason to be combative anon, not everybody is keeping up with the SMO.

>>64097275 (OP)
You can always counter weight with steel bbs.

>>64098118
Iron filings would be the best option, no inertia and will loose all energy to drag quickly while being dense enough it takes up a tiny area.

>>64097510
>What other counter-mass launchers are there aside from this and the AT4-CS?
BEHOLD! The PRIG, a weapon constructed by the IRA in the early 90s.
The warhead is a food can filled with 600g of plastic explosives, it's fin stabilized and detonates on impact.
The counter mass consists of two sealed packets of digestive biscuits.
The propelling charge consists of black powder and is electrically ignited, it's of a cartridge type and is screwed into the launch tube from the side.

>>64097356
Styrofoam isn't considered environmentally friendly.

>>64097310
his bottom is pozzed, like yours.

>>64097510
NTA btw

>>64097433
It's covered with plastic sheath

>>64098143
Man, the Troubles were something else.

>>64097306
CE is only for consumer products.

>>64097275 (OP)
Because the volume of plastic does not matter. Only a spergtard would care and only then due to mental defect.

Most things are trivial. Learn to sort by importance.

>>64097399
You should be gassed for neing a bigger. Your posts make /b/ seem intelligent and /pol/ appear sane by comparison.

>>64097275 (OP)
yeah big guy how about you show me where in the procurement specification it said that the counter-mass CANNOT consist of shredded plastic, huh? anything more to say? our legal team will be processing any further inquiries on this, thanks and have a good life

>>64098155
Nor is it hostile. Chickens love the stuff and it goes through their digestive systems without a hitch. You're stupid and should be raped by syphilitic lepers until your colon prolapses between your feet like a rotting Portuguese Man o' War jellyfish.

>>64099693
Shut the fuck up, newfag.

Side note I'm envious of the fact that Boomers once bought nearly everything in glass bottles and as a result it didn't taste like absolute shit if it got exposed to the sun a little bit. Also sounds cool that hobo's had something to do other than beg because they'd actually PAY (YOU) to return them back into the supply chain by going to the factory. But then our government decided to be giant fucking faggots and created the USDA which basically strings farmers and small companies by the balls for even thinking about boiling glass bottles and then recapping them because something something UN Agenda 21 and Molach worship as well as cronyism because Coke Pepsi and Nestle basically lobbied for this to happen and Boomers fucking fell for it and believed in delusions like 'recycling' even though 99% of post consumer plastics just gets dumped into the ocean and the other 1% gets turned into over priced shit Patagona makes (like my fanny pack).
Why do Boomers constantly get duped by Jewish tricks at the expense of future generations? How'd they become so fucking retarded?

>>64097310
>wanting less micro plastics in the soil and drinking water is le gay even though that would halt plummeting testosterone levels and several cancer statistics too because of xenoestrogens
Yeah actually I would like them to find an alternative. AR furniture should use more recycled materials as well.
If anything that would reduce the amount of fembois in the world.

Also it's just nice to go camping or to the beach and NOT have to see trash everywhere.

>>64097336
I hate foam cups too, water tea and coffee always taste fucking weird out of those. I just bring my own metal thermal coffee cup now.

>>64100385
I had tea at a friend's house and they use that stevia sweetner shit instead of normal sugar, it legitimately tasted like the way burnt plastic smells.

>>64097275 (OP)
Because military equipment, but if you're so concerned about it, it's possible to use other things as a counter-mass, such as salt water, or hell, fucking packets of biscuits, as seen in an improvised design by the IRA.

>>64097405
>The microplastic thing is a dumb fad.
I don't think it is, but I also think it's a problem we're going to be able to largely address.

>>64098118
That would be metal as fuck for like a videogame or something, but mostly impractical and more dangerous from a practical real life point of view.

>>64098143
There it is! And it was even Digestive biscuits, those rock.

>>64100428
Artificial sweetener is pig disgusting.

>>64098128
There is a danger whatever powder is used will explode. Iron possibly might burn. I would consider fine quartz sand, size range so not dangerous to inhale. its going to be the wrong color maybe coat with black plastic paint.

>>64098128
You can use all kinds of things as a counter charge. Again, you can use saltwater, or you can even use biscuits, see: >>64098143

It literally just have to be some kind of mass which the backblast can scatter, to absorb a lot of the energy, the only question is what would be a practical mass to use. Fine powders are ill advised due to all kinds of different ones being potentially flammable, but you don't have to use a fine powder.

If you're really dead set on it not being plastic, I would say you could do something like a long stack of some kind of round hardtack (clackclack) packed in wax or something, to make sure it lasts indefinitely (not so much for eating, just making sure it doesn't break down).
Also, unless you're looking at a reloadable piece like a Carl Gustaf (which has its merits and advantages, mind), you're not going to be moving away from synthetics for these kinds of launchers, the entire point of the typical launcher is that it's a really light and handy weapon to carry with you because it only has to tolerate being fired exactly once, and there's no better materials for this than plastics.

>>64097361
Why plastic though? Wouldn't sand work just as well?

>>64100428
>I had tea at a friend's house and they use that stevia sweetner shit instead of normal sugar, it legitimately tasted like the way burnt plastic smells.
By your friend a big ol jar of honey (the real stuff an local) as a gift the next time you see him.

>>64098143
Thanks, anon. Havem't seen this in so long that I forgot about it.

>>64100385

Tragic however less prostate and breast cancer is probably worth it.

>>64100428
Did you know that stevia has been proven to cause infertility in mice?

>>64098155
I don't think it's styrofoam
