The rear of the upper is round-ish, and the rear of the receiver is squared off-ish.

I'm doubtful as well, but, machinists can work miracles nowadays, so...maybe, I guess.

A Barrett might come out cheaper after all the machine work to make this, er, work.

Putin is spending that gas money from Europe...

submarine mothership was leaked in December 2016. The Nuclear Posture Review report, dated January
2018, lists the weapon as part of Russia’s underwater nuclear arsenal.

Kanyon - 5.5 feet wide - 79 feet long – nuclear powered - autonomous drone torpedo - range 6,200 miles -
max depth 3,280 ft - speed 100 knots(115mph).
Payload 100-megaton thermonuclear weapon(100,000,000 tons of TNT), twice Tsar Bomba.

Big badda boom indeed.
All the numbers are remarkable, including its over two day flight to maximum range.

Big Dick Diplomacy. Our air defences are pretty strong and mutual destruction is not a win. Tunneling like the Brits did in WW I is not practical, so the only other way to be a threat is underwater.

My question is. Why the need to be a threat at all? I know the world is a dangerous place, and that we need to defend our self's. But that thing is made to start a war.

Mutual assured destruction. We are not going to attack Russia if we know they can take us out and there is nothing we can do about it.

We had peace under mutual assured destruction for decades, but then the US developed missile defense systems. Our destruction was no longer certain, only probable. So Russia had to invent a way around the defense we had created. We are back to a stalemate again. It’s actually a good thing.

More bombs from Ai Weiwei.

This was made during the copper age which was after the stone age but before the Bronze age, roughly 3500 to 2300 BCE.
A beautiful piece of work, hope that blade didn't start out to be a machete.

Not a weapon, but a book about weapons. Books are cool, right?
