Original Starlight scope. What baffles me the most is that it's side-mounted; imagine the fuckin' balance on that thing...

That one is side-mounted but curves up to sit over the center axis. The Starlight is just straight-up off to the side of the weapon.
It's probably side mounted to prevent it from being a foot above the barrel, and to still be able to use the irons, with those early AR-15's the mounting point was the top of the carrying handle.
I didn't expect my 10,00th post to be so insignificant.

I wonder how those AA sights work.. it looks like it has a massive zoom ratio.. how does that affect leading targets? Or is that massive tube filled with filters for lighting control or some shit?
.. or could it be a night sight? Got anymore info on that pic Monkey?
Found a picture of some FSB AK's..

Yes - it's a locally produced Russian muzzle break that's quite popular amongst the FSB crowd. The one right of it is a [url=http://alfa-antiterror.com/index.php/airsoft-replicas-of-fsb-equipment/zenith-muzzle-break-steel-copy]Zenith[/url], but the one on the far left dosn't have an official name or manufacturer to my knowledge. There's a discussion over on Red Alliance Airsoft, trying to track down their origins. [url]http://www.red-alliance.net/forum/index.php?topic=22394.0[/url]
And I'm farily certain those AA optics are for nightvision.

The farthest left brake is the SRVV Jet Brake, the next with this spikes is one from Zenitco.

They are early IR night sights. Here's some copypasta
Solution A – Sperber (Sparrow Hawk) was made up of one 30cm infrared searchlight (with range of 600m) and image converter operated by the commander – FG 1250.From late 1944 to March of 1945, some Panzerkampfwagen V Panther Ausf G (and other variants) mounted with FG 1250, were succesfully tested. From March to April of 1945, approximately 50 Panthers Ausf G (and other variants) mounted with FG 1250, saw combat service on the Eastern Front and Western Front. Panthers with IR operated with SdKfz.251/20 Uhu (Owl) half-track with 60cm infra-red searchlight and Sd.Kfz.251/21 Falke (Falcon). This solution could be easily mounted on any type of armored fighting vehicle.
The German's managed to squeeze out some pretty neat ideas during those dark years.
I always found this one particularly ingenious:
[img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/4a/Schr%C3%A4ge_Musik_cannon.jpg[/img]
Schräge Musik for those who don't know - mean's "Slanting music" or rather the german term for "Jazz Music". Hidden mg's for firing at and destroying a bombers wing's at the critical point where they met the fuselage. Codenamed 'Jazz music'. Seems almost Mobster-ish to me.
The hell were they hidden in? Fighters?
[QUOTE=spartan-9081;45007229]The hell were they hidden in? Fighters?[/QUOTE]
Generally twin-engined fighters like the BF-110 and DO-217 night fighters and the Japanese Ki-45.
ya german engineers, they can think of crazy stuff,forget V-1's and V-2's the germans should have fielded way more of these things

this wasn't a cruse missile, just a smart bomb
[editline]5th June 2014[/editline]
both though were victims of their success, the allied war effort developed very sophisticated radio jamming equipment, and for some reason the idea of rolling frequencies never occured to the germans so they just used a static set of frequencies specific to each mission

How do you reload with that huge IR spotlight. Can you imagine trying to swing out the cylinder with that thing twisting your wrist.
[QUOTE=11meister;45007915]How do you reload with that huge IR spotlight. Can you imagine trying to swing out the cylinder with that thing twisting your wrist.[/QUOTE]
Because you shouldn't swing cylinders anyway? If you swing the cylinder as opposed to just pushing it out, it can not only hurt your wrist but also fuck up the hinges or something.
I thought swinging the cylinder in does more damage? I've never heard anyone denounce swinging it out anyway.
[QUOTE=Broguts;45007924]Because you shouldn't swing cylinders anyway? If you swing the cylinder as opposed to just pushing it out, it can not only hurt your wrist but also fuck up the hinges or something.[/QUOTE]
I didn't mean flick the cylinder.
I meant using an industry approved, instructor-taught method, to disengage the cylinder, and rotate it to the outer limits of it's travel. Thereby allowing the user to extract the spent cartridges, and insert fresh ones.
With much poise and consideration given to the proximity of fingers to the trigger, and the direction of the muzzle at all times.
[video=youtube;VFBAcz16GvU]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFBAcz16GvU[/video]
Swinging the cylinder in or out isn't good for the arm connected to it, since the force of that happening creates a lot of tension on the arm. It could become slightly bent over time, preventing the cylinder from lining up with the barrel properly. If you tried firing a round with a misaligned cylinder, then the bullet goes nowhere and (part of) the gun just explodes in your hands.
(Could someone fact check this for me?)

amazingly some cylinder guns don't have flip out cylinders! instead it probably had a little loading slot

probably an issue on older guns, but i can't see today's steel and alloys really having that much of a problem unless you're going all video game and whipping the gun around but then again if you're doing that the cylinder breaking is the last of your worries
