2024.05.15 04:36 Gyp2151 New bill seeks to limit ‘mass casualty’ guns in Ohio
House Bill 433, sponsored by Rep. Willis Blackshear (D-Dayton), prohibits a person from knowingly acquiring, having, carrying, or using any mass casualty weapon. In the bill, a mass casualty weapon is defined as “any semi-automatic firearm designed or specially adapted to fire more than 31 cartridges without reloading, other than a firearm chambering only .22 caliber short, long, or long-rifle cartridges.”This screams unconstitutional |

2024.05.13 17:11 RoadkillAnonymous Hello there, what are y’all loading for?
Just saying hi, new to the forum, not new to guns or handloading ammunition. Always curious to see what all people are loading for, and love talking about this stuff. I am a reloading junkie and plainly admit I enjoy handloading and tinkering with load development even more than shooting and hunting, I find cartridges interesting first, firearms second haha. submitted by RoadkillAnonymous to reloading [link] [comments] Currently load for my 243 win (savage 99), 257 weatherby magnum (weatherby vanguard s2 stainless), .270 win (savage 111), .30-30 (dads marlin 336) .300 win mag (savage 111 long range hunter model), .358 Norma magnum (Brno zg47), and the newest member of my family, the elephant gun, a .450 ackley (Winchester model 70 safari express super grade). I have in the past loaded for .223 Remington, .220 swift, .308 Winchester, and 8x57 Mauser. Don’t have those guns anymore. My next reloading adventure, Lord willing, will be getting into shotshell reloading which I have zero experience with. One day I’d also love to get into casting my own lead bullets, mainly for that big 450, the .30-30, and shotgun slugs. What are YOU loading for these days? |

2024.05.12 00:53 Lefaucheux So... I started a Museum!
After decades of being a firearms enthusiast and collecting every scrap of information I could find on these particular firearms, I've taken a pretty big leap—I started an online museum dedicated to the Lefaucheux family, pioneers of 19th-century firearm innovation. This project has been a dream of mine for a long time, and I’m thrilled to finally share it with a community that appreciates the art and history of firearms as much as I do. submitted by Lefaucheux to guns [link] [comments] The museum is focused on the remarkable contributions of Casimir Lefaucheux and his son Eugène. Casimir was the genius behind the breech-loading mechanism and the revolutionary pinfire cartridge system, innovations that have had a lasting impact on firearm technology. Eugène carried forward this legacy, perfecting the famous Model 1854 pinfire revolver, which saw widespread use across Europe. What makes this museum special? It’s entirely digital. This format allowed me to create interactive exhibits and detailed timelines that delve into the intricate history of the Lefaucheux family's contributions to firearm engineering. You can explore extensive archives of photographs, original documents, and, of course, detailed views of their revolutionary firearms. I wanted to make this experience as rich and accessible as possible, so whether you're a casual enthusiast or a serious collector, there's something here for you. It’s been quite the journey putting this together—combining my tech background with my passion for historical firearms. The result is something that I hope will educate, inspire, and engage people around the world. Check it out here: lefaucheux.com and feel free to AMA! |

Got these guys in a box lot. 38 s+w black powder. Very useful for those antique revolvers! But they are bricks of wax? Obviously one would guess preservation, but for what? A safari? Traveling by sea? 1907 bubba saying "these'll be worth money some day!"? Any other ideas?

2024.05.09 02:28 The_Mad_Mellon What do RAM grenades really do different? - Field Catalogue Confusion from a New Player
Rocket-Assisted Multipurpose (RAM) grenades become available from TL8. These are essentially an advanced form of the cartridge grenade, with greater range and accuracy. Some RAM grenades are configured to receive basic guidance, typically from a laser designator. A RAM grenade that hits without detonating will do Damage 2D. RAM grenades cost three times the payload price, plus any additional features. Weight is the same as a hand-thrown grenade. RAM grenades have a base Range of 300m.p53, Field Catalogue (emphasis mine)
Smart (TL10): Although commonly called ‘smart’, this ammunition is more correctly designated ‘limited-guidance’. It is only useful with a weapon mounting a gun computer as no person can react quickly enough to keep a bullet on target. The user can choose whether to lock in a particular target then shoot, or to have the gun computer assess the situation at the instant of firing and make an assumption about what the target is to be. Either way, once the projectile is in flight it deploys small fins for guidance and attempts to correct the aim point using signals from the weapon. This is of little use at ranges under 100m as the projectile does not have time to make meaningful course corrections, but at greater ranges DM+1 is gained for guidance from an Intelligent weapon. This increases to DM+2 for TL13+ intelligent weapons. Smart ammunition costs six times as much as ball. If the guidance capability is combined with another special ammunition type, the two costs are added together. Thus smart enhanced-wounding ammunition would cost 6 times the cost of ball plus 2 times the cost of ball, for a total of 8 times the cost of conventional ammunition.p50, Field Catalogue (emphasis mine)
A basic laser designator becomes available at TL6. It ‘paints’ a target by projecting a laser onto it, allowing a guided munition to home in on the reflected radiation. Much depends on the ability of the user to keep the weapon on target; the munition will follow a moving spot as best it can. Designators also act as rangefinders. At TL9, a much smaller designator is available, which can be mounted on a personal weapon.p139, Field Catalogue (emphasis mine)

2024.05.08 19:16 harinedzumi_art Official military firearms of the Middle Empire.
"Civilization differs from barbarism in the ability to make the one effective." submitted by harinedzumi_art to theSmall_World [link] [comments] © The God-Emperor. The basis of the modern military Doctrine of the Middle Empire is a small firearms combat under the cover of artillery and field mortars. Due to this, the saturation of the Pacification Army with new weapons and ammunition and the training of soldiers has become the main task of the Pacification [Military] Ministry. To simplify these processes, all types of the Imperial firearm were standardized and strictly limited. Currently, the Imperial Pacification Army officially uses 4 types of common-use matchlock firearms. 1. Fa-bokao type matchlock rifle.Standard army rifle, used by all professional army units. Shoots round lead or iron bullets (from a unitary cartridges). Can shoot small shrapnel charges. The long and heavy rifle barrel increases the effective firing distance [80-130 steps aiming, 180-220 steps maximum], but reduces the mobility of the shooter. The rate of fire of a trained soldier is 6-7 shots in 5 minutes. Easily penetrates basic types of armor [chain mail, scales, lamellar] at an effective shooting distance. Poorly penetrates special ballistic armor [recommended to fire iron bullets from a distance of no more than 30-50 steps] Has an additional iron hook for accurate shooting from shelters and melee combat. Fairly heavy. 2. Nung-fa-shuo type special rifle.Common-use support firearm. Powerful long-barreled rifle of small caliber. Shoots long heavy steel armor-piercing bullets. Due to the use of special gunpowder and a rifled barrel, it accelerates the bullet to high speeds. The effective firing distance is 700-1100 steps. Penetrates any types of armor at an effective firing distance. Heavy, inconvenient, difficult to use, gunpowder is prone to explosions when loading errors. Used by small support and reconnaissance units [rangers, hunting squads, vanguard snipers, headhunters] and sharpshooters of combat/trench divisions. Due to the high effective firing distance, it is mainly used by Sa-ya-iin [three-eyed frogs], an ethnic minority with anamolically sharp eyesight. In the case of use by all other frogs, rifle requires additional tools for long-range shooting [magnifying lens sight, serif rangefinder] Not recommended for any using by soldiers who have not been trained! 3. Ka-fa type shooting cylinder.Standard weapons of Trench Brigades. The oldest and simplest, but still effective type of imperial ranged weapon. It is a short, wide barrel with a hole for the gunpowder and the wick, mounted on a short shaft. In ancient times, it shot arrows and small kernels. New metal alloys for the barrel made it possible to shoot powerful shrapnel charges. The effective firing range is 0-20 paces, maximum is 40 paces. At an effective firing distance, it makes ballistic armor useless [the kinetic energy of shrapnel tears apart internal organs and breaks bones without piercing armor] It does not break, after a shot it can be effectively used in melee as a heavy mace. Perfect for trench warfare. 4. Ka-fa-mokau fragmentation hand cannon.The only special weapon recognized [partially] as a combined-arms weapon because of its highest efficiency. Further development of the Ka-fa's idea. The charging system is similar to a Fa-bokao rifle. The butt instead of the shaft. Further improvement of the barrel made it possible to shoot heavy metal fragments. Thanks to the use of new gunpowder, the effective shooting distance has increased to 40 paces, maximum is 80 paces. At an effective shooting distance, it penetrates any armor, inflicts terrible injuries. Due to the powerful gunpowder and charge, it is prone to self-explosions when fired if any loading errors were made. Unlike a Nung-fa-shuo type special rifle, in most cases self-explosion is fatal for the shooter and everyone within a radius of 5 steps. If the butt is in the wrong position, the recoil when fired breaks the bones of the shooter. In no case should it be used in melee combat [if it has been used, do not try to shoot anymore, it will explode] Due to the general difficulties of charging and shooting, it is free used only by Fire Warriors, special detachments of Trench Brigades and Trench Brigade's junior command staff. All other soldiers and commanders can get permission to use only after successful [rank 1-6 of 12] completing a three-month hand cannons shooting training course. It all works great. But only on official papers. In reality, most official firearms are banally outdated and do not meet the conditions of modern warfare. Therefore, most soldiers of the active divisions of the Pacification Army use so-called modified firearms. After entering the arsenals, batches of weapons are transferred to private companies, which refine them to a state appropriate to their tasks. Only after that, the weapon is put into service. Therefore [for example], a "heavy smooth barreled" Fa-bokao can be both a light carbine of the Rapid Response Infantry, and a long-range rifled firearm of the Line Division's chain marksmen. Since the Imperial bureaucracy only cares about reports, no one gives a shit about all this. The Unity Council and the God-Emperor receive beautiful lists of standardized weapons, and the soldiers receive effective modern firearms. Many soldiers even use their own types of "modified" firearms, fake listed as one of the official weapons. And only at official parads all detachments are equipped with the same standard weapons to show "the Power of the Civilization" to the citizens. Of course, all this applies only to the Pacification Army supplyed by the mong-lao [military officials] The Conscript Army is really armed with official weapons, so its combat capability does not stand up to any criticism. However, extremely high casualties among the conscripts are considered extremely beneficial for the Empire, as according to propaganda they show the danger of enemies and rally citizens around the Imperial Cult. "As I somehow tried to teach fuckin conscripts how to shoot, they didn't understand anything at all. At first I blamed their useless Aa-ma nature for this. But I soon realized they had just never seen a combat weapon. No clue how all these clowns imagined a war against the newts, but it's not funny anymore. If the fuckin Ministry doesn't start teaching them, I'll simply resign my position. Aa-ma can die as much as they want, but I never agree to fuckin voluntarily suicide. Become heroes instead of me, mates, be my guests." © Ni-cheng Gaozhu, a headfrog of the 8th General Division [including both professional and conscription units] |

2024.05.07 14:19 M0ther_0f_Plants Help! Emergency filter replacement, fin rot, an unfortunate series of events.
Oh, boy. It’s a story, so please bear with me. I need help figuring out what to do. submitted by M0ther_0f_Plants to bettafish [link] [comments] First the backstory, last week I noticed my male betta (a year old) was acting funky. I had him in a 3 gallon heated (78F) and filtered (I never change the cartridge) tank with 50-75% water changes once a month. I noticed he was abnormally lethargic and his tail, normally large and fan shaped, had split all the way down to his body. Yes, the splitting happened pretty quickly and that’s why I was nervous at first. I checked his water parameters and all dissolved components were LITERALLY OFF THE CHART. I had no idea what happened! Until I checked his filter. It was still making noise like it was pumping but no water was moving. He was in a stagnant 3 gallon for at least a week. The tank subsequently crashed. I put him in a new tank, 5 gallon that’s filtered and heated to 76F with the same filter cartridge in a new filter and with the same decor and I added new silk plants. I also kept about 10% of the old water (enough to keep him in a “hospital” carrying tank thing, it’s like 1/4 of a gallon). He’s acting totally normal again! Puffing at the glass, eating and asking for more food, taking naps in his tallest plant. But? His fin rot is worse and now there is discoloration at the base of his tail on his body. It’s normally black but now it’s pinkish and only in the area that has rotted away. I don’t know what to do. Veterinarian isn’t an option, so I’m wondering where to I either find antibiotics and how to use them or another strategy that has worked for y’all. This poor guy has been through enough with me not fully inspecting his filter and his tank crashing. I really need help figuring out what to do. Also, his color changing has been happing slowly for 6 months. He used to be red and maroon but is slowly turning blue and black. His tail was turning black long before the tank crash. |
