Looks like its just a benelli m4/m1014 with a rail and optic being marketed as a "new anti drone model"
Says it has a special choke but all im seeing is that its a standard modified choke so you should be able to just buy a modified choke for an m1014 and pop it in unless yours is one of the weird fixed choke models. A modified choke and some #4 buckshot and you basically have this exact gun in its anti-drone config.
Putin's Nowechoke got another one. Or was it nuclear Apollonium forged only in the depths of Russia's nuclear chain?

👤🛰❌💥🇧🇷🤡 — Commenting on the seizure of a Venezuelan presidential plane, businessman Elon Musk stated that he might request the seizure of assets from the Brazilian government as a form of reciprocity due to the freezing of SpaceX's bank accounts in the country:
Unless the Brazilian government returns the illegally seized property of 𝕏 and SpaceX, we will seek reciprocal seizure of government assets too.

"The U.S. is a tough one because we have the notion of the First Amendment. And so what are the exceptions?...I do think over time...you're going to want to be in an environment where the people are truly identified...We're going to have to have systems and behaviors that we're more aware of who says that, who created this?"

"The U.S. Navy Looks Like Its in Serious Decline" - Peter Suciu, National Interest, 08SEP2024
>The U.S. Navy is grappling with persistent mechanical failures and delays across its fleet, from Littoral Combat Ships (LCS) to larger vessels like the USS Iwo Jima and USS Boxer, both of which have been plagued by breakdowns.
>Compounding the issue, the Navy's supercarrier midlife refueling process, designed to take three years, has stretched to nearly six.
>With older vessels breaking down and new projects like the Zumwalt-class destroyers proving costly, the Navy faces operational challenges and billions in additional costs.
>The United States Navy's littoral combat ships (LCS) have been plagued by numerous breakdowns that the small coastal vessels have earned the nickname " Little Crappy Ships." Several of the oldest vessels have already been retired, many have been pulled from service more than a decade ahead of schedule.

Asian man’s research and theorizing on Asian lying:
“Europeans are generally more honest than Asians, despite the fact that honesty and intelligence correlate.”
“I ran a BMA a year ago to detect which variables were the most robustly associated with honesty between races. Individualism was the trait most linked with honesty, not intelligence or any other of the variables I tested.”
“About how this relates to conformity: on the surface, Asians are more conformist than Whites. More likely to wear masks, be quiet in class, and whatnot. But that's external conformity: Asians are more comfortable with inconsistencies between the inside and outside.”
“But Whites are more likely to conform internally, to adopt values, beliefs, or religions that involve sending more reliable and costly internal signals than simple external ones.”
“re the individualism thing, I don't think honesty causes individualism or vice versa, rather they're part of the same underlying phenotype, which is discomfort with inconsistency between the internal and external.”

Imo, pretty compelling.
Those of us who deeply care about truth have a terribly hard time even conceiving those who don’t at all.
You can see it all the time, e.g. when someone says “why would that person even lie?”
— They ask why someone would do something so painful, not realizing that for some people, lying brings zero pain at all.
Clearly, just as the 1st law of behavioral psychology predicts, it’s highly biological.
And clearly, this is an extremely political-correctness-sensitive question, but this also one of the most fascinating.
Are far more people than we realize, simply wired to lie, and experience lying entirely different than we do?
Yes, sure looks like it.

>As a battalion commander, Dima was in charge of around 800 men who fought in some of the fiercest, bloodiest battles of the war – most recently near Pokrovsk, the strategic eastern town that is now on the brink of falling to Russia.
>But with most of his troops now dead or severely injured, Dima decided he’d had enough. He quit and took another job with the military – in an office in Kyiv.
>Two and half years of Russia’s grinding offensive have decimated many Ukrainian units. Reinforcements are few and far between, leaving some soldiers exhausted and demoralized. The situation is particularly dire among infantry units near Pokrovsk and elsewhere on the eastern front line, where Ukraine is struggling to stop Russia’s creeping advances.

Let's read the wiki page on g and IQ. This is a highly political article, and those who preach equality are extremely sore about this information.
tl;dr: g, which is what an IQ test is a measure of, is extremely predictive of everything, from school test performance, to income, to criminality (negative correlation.) It is highly heritable (genetic,) and is a strong measure of your personal worth to society.
