0% RPGs

Post by D5CAV »

Yeah, I know. us.gov is about to shut down zero-hedge for "promoting Russian dis-information", just like they shut down my other favorite news site - Russia Today (rt.com).

If you have any interest in the "educational value" of the following article, I recommend you print it out before it becomes "memory holed" by the minions of the beast: https://www.zerohedge.com/technology/pe ... -launchers

Might be a good back-up in case Wal-Mart is sold-out of Javelins.

They are are flagging some people for quoting the NYTs for spreading Russian disinformation, but they may have point in that case.

I like ZeroHedge, they are not always right (or even usually maybe) but they are always pessimistic and that is a useful POV to get.

<<I like ZeroHedge, they are not always right >>

Unlike NYT and other legacy media, they're not (almost) always wrong.

Please, we are discussing reputable news sources, not propaganda outlets.

Why don't we just use some small-diameter metal tubing, in the tradition of Old World Faustpatronenkraft or Antipanzerkanonenkrausening or whatever the Germans decided what the word for "making semi-disposable tubes" is?

Uh, define "small diameter" - I used to make wire wrapping guides out of custom DOM that had bores down to .8mm(approx 32 thousands)

A better idea is what some of the insurgents we're doing sandbox - a 55 gallon drum full of explosives topped with a copper dish = self forging fragment. Iran was supplying the machined copper discs.

If you can make a working rpg tube out of .8mm stock I'll be impressed.
