What the hell are those guns on the plane?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 weeks ago

Since airplanes back then were a curious combination of flammable material traveling through high wind speed, I too would say that's a flare gun. A direct hit would be effective.

The nearest one, if I had to guess, is probably a flare gun. The one in back, uh, maybe an MG14? I'm no firearms expert.

Certainly flares. You couldn't shoot a monster bullet/shell like that even if it was black powder.

I love the idea of going into battle with crazy fucking bright patterns on my war machine

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

That is terrifying. Fuck the plane, they should just send him out there in that suit.

I need this for maximum coziness in bed

With the warnings that come on heating pads, I'd be wary of that face one!

I've had failures in heated gloves... Ouch!

Do you think it's all quiet there?
