I don't have anything particularly exciting, but my grandfather, who is Chinese-hawaiian served a Naval intelligence officer in Vietnam. I never talked to him much about it until recently, as I'm also a Sailor. He told me because of how he'd be less conspicuous he'd be sent to do these route reconnaissance missions along the Mekong and other river systems in SE Asia to identify routes the VC were taking to infiltrate and resupply their guys. On a couple occasions the ARVN bailed on him and he'd be out there on his own and he had to be bailed out by U.S. Marines. In one occasion what he described as an amphibious tank (I'm assuming an LVTP-5) fired its cannon during an ambush. It was pretty neat stuff. I remember thinking his missions reminded me of apocalypse now, just without having to assassinate an overweight rogue colonel. After VN he was in the secret service for the Carter, Regan and Bush administrations. I hope to emulate him as I grow older. I need to talk to him about this more

You shouldn't be chasing for spec values but they do exist and if you wanted to know what "better spec" values are there's a way to know which unit is desirable over another.
Most retailers won't post this info as they build NVDs to order, first come first serve, and depending on their grading scale of high, mid, low tier it may differ from retailers. If a retailer offer a “ready to ship” fully built units they will list the spec values. Hand select is an option from retailers that will try to match to your spec requirements.

Some reputable retailers:

Want to get a very small pistol/revolver for carrying.
any recommendations?
I'm divided between the CZ 92 in 25 acp and zvi Kevin in 9 Browning. Both are small, but the CZ is very very slim and comfortable to shoot.
Both guns are DAO so I will be carrying with one in the chamber.
Does anyone here have any small pistol or revolver to recommend? for reference, I want something significantly smaller than my sig 239, and something that will allow safely carrying with one in the chamber.

Just get a j frame in 22lr or 22mag. 12.3oz loaded, long, heavy and safe trigger, won't be fazed by lint, can fire from coat jacket, can't be limp wristed, no matter how shite your draw is, if it fails to fire just pull trigger again, etc.
Clearing a malfunction on a tiny little pistol is a huge pain in the ass and they generally just feel like shite from an ergonomic standpoint. If you won't consider rimfire check out the new 632/432 j frame chambered in .32 mag. It's a few ounces heavier though which can add up innapocket.

Idk abt p32 I shot p11 and it was the worst fucking piece of shit ever. Pf9 is bigger tho its alot better but fuck man literally just buy a NAA .22 I think you'll enjoy it more if you aren't concerned about usability and just want something cool and tiny. But pls just buy something that isn't a piece of shit. If you want something usable buy a stoeger cougar or something idk
>>
>>61698928
I've shot the pf9 and p32 and the p32 is much more controllable and easier to hold onto even though it's so small. The p32 trigger is pretty much the same as the pf9 and the sights are technically there but it's reasonably accurate and doesn't have much recoil unless your shooting fiocchi 73g which you should be if you plan on carrying it then it's got a little snap but it's really not bad

I work in/commute to a dense urban environment and drive about 45 minutes to get to a country property. I've been looking for a 'get home' gun/chassis that I can keep in my truck having lived in a few places where it actually has kicked off, mostly during the St. George riots. I work in a secure gov facility that does not allow me to carry on property so I lock my CCW in a backseat, underseat safe. What options should I be looking at? I've been eying up the B&T chassis as it seems like the highest quality of the options and I already carry a G19/17(Flux looks a little flimsy to me) but feel like there's probably a wealth of stuff I'm overlooking. My budget is extremely open.

What is an assault? 99% of Assault tactics relies on you believing that you're imprevious to bullets while the other guy will explode into giblets on hit. Anything less and assault is impossible without deeply suicidal mental conditioning. Even soviets in WW2 issued anti-SMG body armor for infantry CQB.
