Nice lack of rails, lol.

I hate to say it but after putting 10k+ rounds through Colts, I like to keep it simple. This is my first dot sight and I already don't like it. I just bought this brand new Colt LW Sporter for $200. Word-up.

It has headlights, turn signals, a VIN and a place to mount a registration plate.

It is also on The Board:

Thus, it is a road car.

You mean the GT3 R Hybrid?

Is there a difference? (apart from the flywheel thingy.)

This should have it's own thread, but whatever:

The Porsche GT3-R Hybrid is a racing prototype only. Porsche has not put any hybrid technology into it's normal production street cars yet. While similar in looks to the GT3/RS, it's not a road car. That's like saying that the 3-rotor RX-8 that runs in Grand-Am GT is a road car just because of the production 2-rotor RX-8 that you can buy from Mazda.

God damn it, he didn't finish the story yet!


Suffer:

ftfy

Thanks? (it works fine on my browser)

Actually, it looks broken in your post.

So how the hell are ya Brain?

I changed the video, look again.


im good, youre not dead. lol

I understand what you're saying. The GT3-R model is not available at dealerships, and isn't in mass production at the moment. But it shares the same base platform as all the other GT3s, so the distinction is purely managerial.

But to me, this would be the same as saying that the "club sport" version of the Miata would have ceased to become a road car the moment Mazda put a prototype hybrid drivetrain into it and started experimenting with it at Laguna Seca.





He has started chapter 2. I wanted to wait until it's done so that the whole thing can be posted, rather than doing it piecemeal.

Here is a sig for your enjoyment.

same studio? probably had good footage to just toss some shitty CGI over.

? what sig is that with a safety?

Mosquito .22LR

Neither at work nor at home.

They are fun little straps. I run mine a lot.

Too expensive for a .22lr IMO.

Honestly though, its GREAT cheap trainer for a P226

You gotta pay to play. You can't be a boss if you can't drop the cash on a ratchet to raise a little Cain with.

Got priorities bra. Sig Sauer doesn't pay my mortgage unfortunately. In a couple years time that might indirectly change, though. Right now I'm much more interested in rifles over handguns anyway. :drool:

Here's another mosquito for ya. This thing is SICK:

oh yeah, that digicam will really help in a firefight

Attachment 187596

If you move the gun rapidly while shooting can it hit the muzzle?

no

what if you were superman? theoretically, it's possible?

Theoretically, sure. Baffle strikes happen with off-center suppressors and destabilized bullets. It can happen. Just a question of how rapidly the barrel would have to be moved in order for the can to contact the exiting bullet.

I mean, I've seen my wrist move pretty fast....

Who takes a .22lr to a firefight?

Sorry Scott, Mythbusters busted that theory with the curving bullet lie from another crappy Hollywood movie. ;)



More media:


In case anyone is curious about a lightning link:

They're registered items and sell for aroudn $7000.00 for the little piece of metal.

It wouldn't be curving the bullet path, it would be swinging the gun fast enough that the can is moved into the (straight) path of the bullet before the bullet clears the end of the can.



EDIT: Before I get challenged for saying the bullet travels in a straight path, I do understand ballistics. I'm treating it as a straight path since we're talking about distances of 6"-8" from the end of the muzzle.

I postulate that a gun with a very slightly curved barrel, with spherical ammunition, and a sort of "ribbing" inside of the barrel instead of "rifling" whereby the movement of the spherical bullet through the relatively lose bore of the barrel created a strong sideways rotation (much like a baseball player throws a curve ball, or a ping pong player slaps the ball with a strong left-to-right motion to put a ridiculous curve on the ping pong ball) instead of the normal rifled spin, while not being extremely accurate, could actually produce a noticeable curvature of the projectile.

yeah that one. not talking about a curved trajectory.

If you could acccelerate (not move) the barrel of the gun fast enough while simultaneously shooting the bullet, then yes, it becomes completely possible to hit the silencer. Considering that normal handgun recoil isn't fast enough of an acceleration to actually hit it, I would say you'd have to be accelerating the end of the barrel pretty darn fast. I'm not going to pretend to know just how fast, but given the likelihood that the silencer is aluminum, the thin threaded section of the silencer might not be able to handle the force of the acceleration required to actually cause a barrel strike.

I understand the difference and still protest that I do not believe it physically possible for this to occur in the hands of a person. Just my opinion.

Bear in mind that swinging a pistol in an arc around a fixed point (the shooter) means that it is always going to be subjected to acceleration so long as it is moving- it's just not accelerating in a straight line.

And yeah, this is purely academic- like arguing that if you stand still long enough you will be crushed to death by tectonic plate movement as the continent changes shape around you.

That shit happens, my cousin Ray Ray...

Let's assume we're using subsonic ammo (since we're shooting it through a suppressor, we're trying to be as quiet as possible, right?) that has a muzzle velocity of roughly 1,000 ft/s.

Let's also assume the suppressor extends 6 inches from the end of the muzzle.

0.5 ft / 1,000 ft/s = 0.0005 seconds

So, you have 1/2000 of a second to swing the tip of the suppressor far enough into strike the exiting bullet.

Let's be generous and say the internal diameter of the suppressor is 0.30 inches. That leaves a little less than 0.04 inches on either side of perfectly center .22LR bullet (since the bullet is actually .222 in diameter).

So you have 0.0005 seconds to swing the tip of the can 0.04 inches.

0.04 inches is 0.003333333 feet.

0.003333333 feet / 0.0005 seconds = 6.666666 ft/s

So you'll have to move the tip of the can sideways at roughly 6.67 ft/s to risk a baffle strike.

If I got all that right I'll be amazed.

I've posted up outside Scott's windows a few times. Let's just say he has quick wrists.

Don't forget, since the tip of the suppressor is extended (huhuhuhuhu) away from your wrist, it will accelerate quicker than your wrist..

lol. Thats a stretch. Love the math!

The only thing is, you have to start swinging after the bullet left the barrel but before it exited the suppressor. which is a window of 0.0005 seconds.

good luck superman.

Goddamn shame they're wasting all this fab work and engineering on a drift car:

I wonder why they went with such a big heavy wheel and what looks like low profile tires on a drift car.

because drift car?

(twitch)

Why? We know that the path of the bullet doesn't "curve" just because you are swinging the pistol. The bullet will exit the barrel and continue in a straight path; if the pistol is being swung fast enough, the inner surface of the suppressor can be swung into the path of the bullet.

Think of a more extreme example -- say we had a 10 foot long suppressor attached to the muzzle. Do you see how swinging the pistol and firing would easily lead to a baffle strike? It's the same situation with a 6 inch suppressor, you just have less time before the bullet clears, so the pistol has to be swung proportionally faster.
