Chinese Sniper School

[Guest lostpass]

It's over folks. If it ever comes to war with the Chinese we are screwed. Not because we won't be able to get any plastic bits but because of their amazing, high tech, sniper ranges.

You can't compete with that.

Sorry if a repost.

Wow.

Holy crap.

Oh my

[Guest lostpass]

What, you don't like the tactical point of impact indicator?

Though I think camo might not be the best choice to house the mechanism.

I wish someone would translate what he's saying.

My mandarin isn't the best but I think it is:

"Holy *&%^! remember this is the target. THIS IS THE TARGET"

[Metalhead]

Looks like a standard vid from Tactical Response to me!

[BrasilNuts]

Would that be considered one of Obamas "Shovel Ready Jobs?"

[Steelharp]

Yeah, for the $#it in his pants!!!

[MattCary]

"Not in my job description."

or simply "F@$% You."

Maybe: "I request trial by Court-Martial."

Must be a trust building exercise. I don't trust anyone that much.

Besides, I know where the ammo they are using was made.

[R_Bert]

empirical evidence that to them their soldiers lives are not even worth a $20 Chinese spotting scope........ Can you immagine the better part of a billion of these goobers coming over the hill ?

[Dolomite`s Breezy]

This has a pucker factor of 100033 x5..

Yikes..;p

They've been doing this for years.

With a standing army of 200 million, what's a few guys lost? The Kings of the East can breed as fast as they lose troops to this.

200 million? Can that be right? Holy cats thats a serious amount of soldiers. I suppose the parades last a few weeks.

[Oh Shoot]

Comes right after they teach the Exposed Convoy Delay, Emergency Brake Vehicle Block, and Prone Ditch Evasion techniques.

I was quoting the Bible to be honest.

According to Wikipedia Military service is compulsory. At the time of writing there was 318,265,016 men fit for service ages 16-49 with another 10.5 million males reaching service age annually.

If anyone wants to get into the math of it, the old saying rings true, NEVER GET IN A LAND WAR IN ASIA. Without weapons of mass destruction a conventional war against china cannot be won. Can you kill 10.5 million people a year just to keep their numbers from increasing? Can you go for a year, killing a million people a day to wipe out their army? I mean come on. The US military knows how to whoopa22 but there's only been about 19-20K deaths in Iraq since '03.

[monkeylizard]

Yeah. WW2 had a total death toll of 50-70 million including civilians. 10 million per year plus 300 million to begin with? Oh crap......

Oh and just so you can all sleep better at night, Caster's number's are just for males. Double those to include Chinese females of service age.

The bible gives numbers for the size of the Chinese army? Color me confused.

Wikipedia says that the actual size of the Chinese army is 4.5 million compared with 2.9 million for the US. Wiki also gives figures for Iraq as low as 100,000 to over 1,000,000. And that is without trying to kill a bunch of folks.

As for winning a land war in Asia, well, that is a different story.

[Oh Shoot]

....As for winning a land war in Asia, well, that is a different story.

Probably have to eat the opposition as you progressed. And make sure you had plenty of arms chambered for their wacky new ammo.

The good news regarding a massive Chinese military is that there's a big ocean between us - it will be decades before they can build the support ships to be able to invade us, should they want to.

That's only active duty. If they tool up for war, every physically able male will be made to fight. Unlike here where cowards like me can hide, a chinaman will be forced into service. No need to outfit and keep that many troops in peace time, but watch them if they need to go fight. It'll be like someone opened up the gates of Mordor. They won't need skilled tactics. To be brutally honest, I imgaine the Chinese government would really benefit from it. Imagine a communist society ridding itself of large portions of it's population. It would free them from the great burden they carry.

at least 4485 members of the US military had died in the Iraq war since it began in March 2003

Now if you spoke of civilian deaths it is way more than 20k.

OK.... Help a n00b out.... What is impressive about that video other than the idiocy of the guy with the shovel sitting there?

Yep, that's right.

Makes me feel a bit better about my job.
