[QUOTE=11meister;44478025]Goddammit, I thought the tacticool goths would never find me if I hid out in Facepunch. I'm through getting Chinese burns and extra 'homework' from them.

Random Jatimatic, because why not. [IMG]http://www.justpistols.co.uk/jat_001.jpg[/IMG] Sucks the originals are pretty rare (only 400 ever made), not to mention it failed military trials by the FDF (as the GG-95 PDW).

[QUOTE=Ilwrath;44478532]There's no such thing as "Finnish Armed Forces". It was trialed once by the FDF, but never adopted.[/QUOTE] Well, the FDF [I]is [/I]the Finnish Armed Forces.
[QUOTE=Riller;44478548]Well, the FDF [I]is [/I]the Finnish Armed Forces.[/QUOTE] Well yes, technically, but they're not FAF, they're FDF :v: In any case, it was trialed once, not twice.

This thread is in dire need of a call back to simpler times, when instead of using machines to fire hot lead at people we just thought "why not poke them with a long stick?"

[IMG]http://natmus.dk/uploads/pics/Oekse_credit_natmus_NMID_3b_01.jpg[/IMG] Imagine making something like that without modern forging tools or without any books to instruct you. Now take a look at this [IMG]http://www.ganino.com/_media/milit-gladii-nim.jpg?cache=&w=450&h=700&tok=f77ebf[/IMG] That is 2500 years old, yet it is mostly intact. 2500 years ago you would still be wiping your ass with a leaf, yet look how beautifully that wood is carved. Human artistic skill and the endurance of the items they made never ceases to amaze me.
Speaking of Ye Olde weapons, I've for the longest time had this strict feudual-Japan-was-bullshit mindset, until I took note of the Kanabō. [IMG]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4f/Samurai_Tokugawa_Era.jpg[/IMG] Fuck yeah, greatmaces! Maces are great, greatmaces are like maces, but greater! I love it. Fuck katanas, fuck the weird warbows they had, fuck spearswords; why doesn't video games and anime make dumb shit up about the Kanabō? I'd eat that raw!

Four foot nine long, solid iron, and with big, whoppin' teeth on it! Bam! Also comes in pocket size, like a fuckin' feudal Glock 29 or some shit! [IMG]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/01/Kanabo_tetsubo.jpg[/IMG] Wham! I'd [I]totally[/I] believe that this could crush through hot machine gun barrels if some weeaboo told me that!

[QUOTE=Binladen34;44478941]I wish somebody would reproduce these, they look so nice. But yeah that fucking price tag I could buy a luxury sports car.[/QUOTE] Hehehe - got you all again. That's a ruger 22 mod kit for impersonating WA2000's. Unfortunatley it had a production run about as long as the Walther - but at least it won't cost you your entire supercar collection.

why the fuck is it called a hobo?
It isn't real crocodile skin, they just go downtown and skin hobos. They can't get rid of the alcoholic tomato soup smell though
speaking of the smell of leather.... [t]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/46/Leather_Cannon_GNM_Nuremberg_W614.jpg[/t] [t]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d2/Leather_Cannon_Detail_1_GNM_Nuremberg_W614.jpg[/t] yep its a leather-wrapped cannon, bet it smelled awfully nice when it fired. it was probably wrapped in leather to prevent corrosion since the cannon itself was a prototype light cannon [editline]7th April 2014[/editline] the whole thing was a cheap copper tube basically held togather by the chord wrapped around it, unfortunatly chord and leather acted as insulators instead of heat-sinks and the cannons tended to deform, melt, and or explode apparently the koreans somehow achieved a similar design but made with paper covering and that was highly successful

A morning star is a spiked mace, non-chained, and most often two-handed with a much longer spike on top for skewering stuff, pike-style. It was a very common weapon for town watches, since you could whop a single, unarmed dude quite well with it, where it'd be much more cumbersome in an actual fight.

[QUOTE=Trekintosh;44485443]Wait so a Morningstar isn't a spiky ball on a chain? wtf my whole life is a lie.[/QUOTE] If it got a chain or a link, it's a flail. If it got a stick and spikes, it's a morning star. If it got a stick and flanges, knobs or just a ball, it's a mace. If it got a stick, it's a club. [editline]8th April 2014[/editline] Oh, and if it got a stick and a single top spike, it's a goedendag. [editline]8th April 2014[/editline] Now, of course, there are further subspecies of all kinds of these, and what essentially is the same weapon may have different names depending on region. If a one-handed wooden club is finely crafted and surface-treated, it becomes a baton; unless it has a second grip on the side, which makes it a tonfa, unless you're in the US, where it's a nightstick. A one-handed wooden-headed morning star with iron bands holding the spikes is a Holy Water Sprinkler if you're in England, and a Ararebo if you're in Japan. An iron mace with flanges is a flanged mace in western Europe, but in Poland and Ukraine, it's a Pernach, or maybe a Shestopyor, depending on if it got secondary flanges near the bottom of the head. It's the exact same weapon as a flanged mace, but historians like to make the distinction because it makes their history-penis longer. And slimmer. Knowing a lot of shit gives history-penis-girth, making distinctions on arbitrary shit gives history-penis-length. You gotta balance the two to best please the ladies.
Riller, you sure know an awful lot about various kinds of sticks and balls.
[QUOTE=DeVotchKa;44485592]Riller, you sure know an awful lot about various kinds of sticks and balls.[/QUOTE] I got long shafts, short shafts, slim shafts, girthy shafts; big balls, small balls, dangly balls, balls in pairs, balls with spikes, balls with knobs, balls with wrinkles, all at Riller's Balls'n'shafts emporium!
[QUOTE=Riller;44478110]Y'know, for the price of a WA2000, you could buy like, twenty better rifles...[/QUOTE] "Better" is a bit debatable, for what it is it's a really good piece, just absurdly expensive and in effectively nonexistent supply.
[QUOTE=asteroidrules;44485702]"Better" is a bit debatable, for what it is it's a really good piece, just absurdly expensive and in effectively nonexistent supply.[/QUOTE] You could buy four PSG-1s for it's current price.
