  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

He just keeps shooting so that the recoil centers thier center of gravity.

[–]Stephenhansonnn 10 points11 points ago

Not without a magazine in his rifle he doesn't.

[–]jusksmit 10 points11 points ago

The man on back carries a large jug of pressured water on his belly. As soon as his clip is empty, he flips a switch which releases water while he reloads. As soon as he resumes firing, he flips the switch off.

[–]DMagnific 2 points3 points ago

You just had to be that guy, didn't you?

[–]rockoblocko 1 point2 points ago

That guy on his back couldn't weigh much more than the standard equipment a soldier carries, could he? I mean, he's probably 100 lbs, or under, right?

[–]GitEmSteveDave 0 points1 point ago

But he still moves things like arms and torso. A pack doesn't move on it's own, aside from swinging when you move. If that guy on the back swings to bear on a target to the left, or leans over, while the bearer is standing still, that would throw your center of gravity off.

Not 'shopped. I remember seeing a site about this guy: he lost his legs, and is literally carried around just like that during trainings, and, I'm assuming, on the field.

[–]theRainChicken 9 points10 points ago

What field? I mean..,there's no way he'd be allowed into combat with no legs.

[–]GhostGoku 7 points8 points ago

What kind of gun is the backpack guy using?

[–]lolmonger 14 points15 points ago

Sig 556 Swat Patrol (or maybe he installed the rails afterwards)

Looks like he's SBR'd it too; I can't see the selector lever too clearly, so I don't know if he has the mil/LE version with full auto, but I'm guessing it's just the civilian version with a cutdown barrel. The site is an EOtech.

[–]GhostGoku 7 points8 points ago

Nice... Thank you.

[–]dmanbiker 2 points3 points ago

I tried to look it up, but couldn't find it.

What does "SBR'd" mean?

[–]Boutros-Boutros 5 points6 points ago

SBR stands for short barreled rifle. To SBR a rifle is to buy a barrel shorter than 16 inches, fill out some paperwork, buy a 200 dollar tax stamp, wait a couple of months, then install the barrel on the rifle.

[–]Dissectionist 4 points5 points ago

Short Barrel Rifle. To SBR it would be to cut the barrel down and most likely have it properly registered with the ATF (and pay a $200 one-time tax).

Here in the US, any firearm with a stock and a barrel shorter than 16", or an overall length less than 26", is specially regulated under the National Firearms Act of 1934 (with very few exceptions).

[–]wingie 1 point2 points ago

What does shortening the barrel actually do? Why would someone want to do that?

[–]Dissectionist 0 points1 point ago

There are many reasons you might want a shorter barrel, but for the most part, it simply makes handling the rifle easier. Shorter rifles are less likely to be bumped into or caught on things in your house or the woods.

Reducing the barrel length also lightens the rifle, and moves the center of gravity back a little bit, which can give you a better balance and "feel."

Transportation and storage become easier, and in the case of rifles with really short barrels (or pistols with stocks), you have a firearm that is easy to control and easier to conceal.

[–]wingie 0 points1 point ago

Okay, that all makes perfect sense. So they are more regulated because of the easy of conceal part? Are there actual downsides to shortening the barrel besides having to pay to do it?

[–]Dissectionist 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, it's most likely because it's easier to conceal. Although, it's really hard to say for sure; gun laws often don't make much sense.

When you shorten the barrel, you lose velocity because the burning powder and expanding gases don't have as much time to push the bullet. With the decreased velocity, you lose energy, which can decrease the chance for a clean kill on that deer, and will cause the bullet to drop sooner (in a shorter distance) and to be more susceptible to wind drift.

Getting a firearm registered as a SBR is a pretty daunting task at first: you have fill out complicated paperwork, get a sign off from a local LEO, send everything in with your $200 to the ATF, and then they spend 6 to 9 months looking it all over.

Once everything is legally complete, you can spend the money on a new barrel, and finally attach it. You then have to ask the ATF whenever you want to take it out of state or move, until you no longer have the firearm, and if you want to transfer it (sell it or give it away) the receiving party then have to file new paperwork, pay $200, and wait 6-9 months.

It's a lot easier once you see someone go through it all, but we still work hard to have our toys like SBRs, short barreled shotguns, silencers, and machine guns.

[–]wingie 0 points1 point ago

Thank you! And now I know!

[–]Dissectionist 0 points1 point ago

No problem!

*Edit: apparently this came out wrong. I am mostly looking forward to deployment, because of the money and the experience, but these pictures make me reconsider that.

I'm not a native speaker, in my mind it was crystal clear that the emphasis was on reconsider volunteering, as in " I am not sure if I still want to do this"
