It would only be like switching sides if they were supplying things to Russia

Not taking Sides is not the same as switching sides

Just because it is in range doesn’t mean it’s appropriate

It was the wrong calibre for what he was doing. The wrong platform for his objective.

I can but 4” clay pigeons at 50m with a 9mm pistol but I should use something else.

I don’t know enough about your weapons systems. I only know about US (and thus NATO) small arms and the subsequent AK variants up through the 90s. I have no knowledge of other countries’ squad weapons or larger).

That 7.62 is not the same as NATO 7.62. The AK round has the diameter but not the length, weight or amount of gunpowder.

You are right that it doesn’t matter that much compared to 5.56, for a battle rifle, but NATO 7.62 is much more powerful and weighs a shitload more. It’s what I use to shoot 700m (and as I said above what US special forces still use as the standard sniper rifle M21)

Russia has been using 5.45 since the 70s (The ones with the brown magazine instead of black). I know the Czech SAR models were available in 5.56x45, 5.45x56, and 7.62x39 (NATO is 7.62x51)

The AR bullet is less than one third the weight and much smaller than the 7.62 round which is why I said it was a shitty choice (and specifically why we still use Korea era armament to this day in the M 21, and 60, mini gun etc (NATO 7.62).

NATO 5.56 Is for ground troops and is designed more to incapacitate

But he missed because the bullet he used was too small and too light and didn’t have a proper ballistic trajectory

And why only one shot? Keep pulling that fucking trigger.

You probably also were taught to use at least a 30 calibre bullet like the M21 (which is what the Secret Service used to return fire)

The moron that tried used an AR-15 which shoots a tiny little bullet and not the appropriate calibre. If he had known anything about ballistics we wouldn’t be dealing with this.

Exactly. He can say death to Israel but if you say the same sentence with the other place you’re banned

And so has gaza, which was never a country and is just an area where the actual countries in the Middle East discarded their undesirables

If Muslims quit attacking Israel, Israel would quit attacking them. I remember Egypt becoming civilized in ‘79 and not having any more issues. Tracking my family in Tel Aviv it scared this shit out of me with the constant barrage of rockets. It doesn’t matter they were shoulder fired and some didn’t have armaments. They chose to act like they were at war and the “government” such as it is of gaza is wholly to blame and has always advocated genocide.
