    Fast/light bullets - check
    Instantly killing - check
    Shock - check
    50 years - probably

    Regardless of shot placement - er, no.

    so I’m not sure what narrative you’ve been following but I’ve never come across one that involved “regardless of shot placement”.

    let’s see if you can contribute something helpful to our understanding, your turn.
    Just...say...the...word

    If mentioning a well known fact is not helpful the whole discussion is pointless.

    Just because you think a particular concept (that was around since at least the 5.56 replaced the 7.62) is new doesnt mean it is.

    With the right shot placement almost any bullet of any calibre will be fatal. So no point further discussing.

    Mate in all honesty I don’t know what keeps you coming back here. Try interacting positively with something helpful and interesting, it might actually make you feel better.

    After a headshot that "munches all the control gear" they don't keep running

    I merely added that what you claimed to be a new concept has already been around for ages.

    Not sure why that makes you so emotional.

    I wonder which one of the miserable shit posters you are, the kind that keeps reincarnating themselves on here after getting banned. Oh well I like a good acronym and sarky, trite, cunty seems to fit quite well so I’ll stick with that. Goodbye STC, cheer up.

    Why did you edit what you just posted? Was "mental health?" suddenly deemed a step too far? What made you change it?
