Mk 38 Mod 1 25MM Machinegun, weeeeeeeeeeeee

Yay large guns. I didn't fire it, but there is something totally surreal about sitting on the flight deck as close as you can during CIWS zeros. Watching the 'little' cannon as it tracks and then just lights up in destruction. Its a shame we're ditching 'em for the roboturret launchers, CIWS still wins in terms of awesomeness even if it is horribly inefficient. Always gives me a little grin to see the CIWS tracking shit when anchored in port.


Largest cannon I've had the pleasure of actually firing was at a Gettysburg reenactment, I've never actually participated in them but I knew someone who was big into it. Nothing like the concussion from those things.


Edit: Actually shit, I can't believe I forgot about the railgun. I didn't get to fire that one either, but watching it is worth it anyway. 1cm bore research project back when I went to NCSU. Turned several inches of steel into interesting modern art.

The same day we shot off the 25MM, they were shooting the CIWS as well. Watching it track and shoot is something to behold, even if the system is out of date and has accuracy akin to old school DRK. Ours tracks and fires just fine, and it ripped apart one of our giant floating dorito thingees. Then we floated one and ripped it apart with the 25MM. Weeeeeeeeee

GM's are awesome man I loved hanging out with those guys, and I was an FC so I ended up hanging out with them quite a bit.

I'm not even a GM, I'm a YN, lol. But I'm on SCAT and a few other security details, so I end up at every shoot we have and all arms training. A nice change from the office life, lol

[Callisto]

So it'd be safe to say....that' you're the SCAT man?

[Abandon]

... i guess so.

Real Men text with shades on at night while driving.

EDIT: Alcohol is a bonus.

In the UK, we drive on the left side of the road. Ofc, I take it you were just being sarky ;D

[Meat]

i'm a cheeky tart

[idklol]

Nah room is much bigger than what it appears in the picture. Plus there's like 4 other rooms, 2 squash courts and a function room. It's also a 10 second drive from where i work, pretty much perfect gym as far as i'm concerned.

Btw I am driving on the superior side of the road!

This!

shifting a stick and/or manipulating tiny buttons for the radio or ac is easier with your dominate hand (majority of people are right-handed). obviously with practice it becomes a non-issue.

driving on the WRONG side is inferior!

[Mayareira]

I shift stick with my dick and its in the middle.

Well, the other night things got a bit fucked up. Ended up hitting someone in the fist with my face... got stitches and a nasal fracture, but here's the current aftermath:

[KuroTsuki]

Ow. That shit sucks.

Did your face break his fist, at least?
