Well, metaphorical e-peens are totally legit. Wag it proud!

That's also a shitload of Browning; I'd hate to think of exactly how many guns that is lol. I want one of those FG42 replicas and M1 carbine replicas. Lever actions are fun, but I find them a pain in the ass to load sometimes.

Oh yeah, I know it's fairly crap, hence why I probably would only ever get one for wallhanger purposes. I like using it in games like Far Cry 4 though, despite its subpar stats.

@Frizan

I know they aren't imported Stateside, so the ones that are there are largely insanely expensive, and being automatics, require I think it's a class 3 license?

Better off just looking for an airsoft gun if you want a wall hanger, me thinks.

Found one from a 2012 auction that was being sold between 6.5k and 9k.

Unfortunately don't own any boomsticks of my own yet, been looking into building an AR at some point though.

Also - secret volcano lairs are so... cliche. I would highly recommend a yacht with a biometrically encoded teleporter to a secret base buried inside Mars.

@Monochromatic Rainbow

Cliche, but that's exactly what I want. If it's tacky, nobody expects anyone to actually go through with it! Also, I've seen the Martian; nobody is going to Matt Damon me, nosir.

Not huge on ARs, shot the C7 in the army, cleaning them blows monkey chunks, so I'd say go with a piston AR. I also recommend not getting anything more for a gun than you absolutely need for it; everything adds weight, and some guys go overboard and just think that just because something has rail space, something should be there.

Only aftermarket accessories I have for my rifles are a reflex sight for my Tavor, and a rubber butt pad and bipod for my SKS.

I'm still trying to figure out why the G36 is the futuristic bad guy gun tbph. Why not use the F2000? Shit looks like it should be loading plasma cells instead of metallic cartridges.

And yup! And the best part is the Tiger was completely irreplaceable.

"Fick dich, Hans! I thought you said der Soviets could not ram ze Tiger out of ze vay! Achtung panzer meinen arsch!"

(Also who the hell is He-Man?)

@Monochromatic Rainbow

Your resident co-GM, the Shaft, owns an FS2000. I'll be sure to pass on that you think he's an evil henchman while he coddles his beloved "tactical tuna". They actually use FN2000s and P90s in The Hunger Games as the authoritarian bad guy guns, so there is a precedence!

I think the reason they use the G36 a bunch is because it's a very imposing, utilitarian design that kind of goes well with all those near-future dystopian armours the kids are so fond of now adays. Plus, it's still a pretty recent design, so it doesn't have that immediate pop culture recognition AKs do, which usually brings to mind terrorists or Russians, or Russian terrorists, or when you want to have some scrappy, cheap resistance gun.

A lot of the modern futuristic looking guns are starting to make their ways in movies, I've caught the TAR-21 as a bad guy gun a few times, which is fine by me, I own one and will soon have a secret volcano lair, so I might as well look the part.

As for He-Man... well, he's a legend. Masters of the Universe was a 30 minute toy commercial cartoon from back in the 80s that existed alongside things like GI Joe, Transformers, and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Damn it Hans, always getting caught with you panzer down!

@gcold

FAMAS > Everything

Yes that's entirely MGS nostalgia speaking

No I don't care

God I love the FAMAS

@Frizan

Apparently, the FA MAS is a garbage pile of a gun that has terrible sights, ergonomics, and a trigger that's creepier than uncle Tom's cabin. I'm pretty sure the French have been planning on replacing it for eons now, which makes it baffling why it keeps showing up in modern FPS games when the thing is a relic from the 70s.

It doesn't help that it's an ugly, ugly gun.

@gcold

Except when they over engineer their tanks so much that they blow up in the middle of battle!

@Monochromatic Rainbow

I was just going to reply with something along the lines of, "Mein Tiger vill not start! Ach damn, Hans! I thought you fixed zis!"

<Snipped quote by Dervish>

Was I the only one that noticed some of the fucking terrorists using G36s?

@Leidenschaft

I kind of noticed a trend starting with Equillibrium that the G36 is becoming the new bad guy movie gun instead of AKs. Ironic, considering my first time knowing that the G36 was a thing was all the way back in 1998 when Rainbow Six came out as a vidya game.

@Dervish

To be fair - who couldn't use a sword? Swords are awesome.

@Leidenschaft

I think the reasoning there was that they were getting supplied modern western arms from more than just Stark Industries. I definitely noticed it too.

@Monochromatic Rainbow

Truth be told, I just wanna be He-Man.

@Dervish

I wouldn't say I'm that good, but I can make a mean sword if you give me the materials!

@Monochromatic Rainbow

I could always use a sword...

For reasons.

Mass Effect: Borealis

Is my current posting rate fine with you guys? Been trying to keep it steady but readonable so all involved get a chance to catch up.

@Zombiedude101

Yup! I think we've all settled into a happy groove, so don't feel rushed, post when you can.

@Monochromatic Rainbow And you have the skills to build yourself an Iron Man suit if you ever get captured by the Viet Cong/ vanilla Afghani terrorists!

Sounds like the morning after a night of late-night taco bell.

@Leidenschaft

I promise you, your rankest, most NCB warfare like shart has nothing on the accumulative horror of sewage that's been isolated in a pipe for 2 weeks without aeration or flow.

Guess who had to cut it open with a sawsall? :D

<Snipped quote by Dervish>

Back in my days, some idiot decided to twirl a trombone. Guy clocked the back of his own head and nearly scored a KO.

<Snipped quote by Dervish>

Now I really feel sorry for these guys.

@gcold

Maybe your trombonist thought he was Darth Maul.

As for that link, first thing that came to mind:

@Dervish

Can confirm. Septic tanks are evil.

As usual, standing water makes everything worse.

@Monochromatic Rainbow

I don't know how those guys driving the septic hauler trucks do it; I've seen those guys eat sandwiches and not wear gloves and somehow not mutate/ die horribly from infection.
