Which rifle for invasion?

[ShaiVong]

1. Dig a 5ft deep pit. (One thing that isnt common knowledge is that the average Chicom is only 3ft tall). Fill with pointy sticks and scissors.

2. Loot a McDonalds and steal all the perfectly preserved hamburgers.

3. Put a couple hamburgers on the grill upwind of some chicoms, they will flock towards it lustily for american food.

4. They fall in pits.

5. Return to step 1 untill no more chicoms are remaining.

6. Shoot all surviving liberals before they flee to China.

7. Stripmine China.

Thats why I should be a General.

C'mon colonel , can't I please use something a little more effective an' keep um further out ? Ya know it would really stink ta git overrun by dead guys !!!

Heard on the news tonight, part of a story about divers checking under ships in L.B. port, that only 3% of those shipping containers coming in are checked. Ships must notify authorities of their arrival 93 miles out.
There has been people smuggled in them, some not so lucky.
Would anyone have ever thought the twin towers act could've happened? Nearly anything is possible these days so lets not let our guard down or we may again get surprised. Although, the odds of the Chinese attacking our shores is pretty slim. That might not be the case in Taiwan but, I'm more concerned about N. Korean missiles.

 

[Joe Demko]

For a scenario like this, the only possible choice is the Webley-Vickers 50.80

I can fairly hear the ta-pocketa-pocketa of far away ChiCom guns already...

 

[Gewehr98]

Mass confusion would reign supreme...

Were the Red Chinese to land on California shores, especially closer to Monterey or Laguna. Think about it, the trendy natives would think there was some big celebration, and would keep the Chinese troops busy with orders for Moo Goo Gai Pan, Dim Sum, and so forth, keeping them tied down for weeks.

(Since it's a tinfoil helmet type thread, anyway...)

 

[cheygriz]

Gewehr,

I think we will all need a DOUBLE layer of tin foil. Who knows what those crafty Chinese have that might penetrate one layer?

 

[geekWithA.45]

OK, so the chinese teleport in their entire army...

According to the CIA factbook, they've got 180 million military eligible people, which is about 1:1 for every American.

We've got, in private hands, about 180 million firearms.

So, the reds magically beam in, we magically beam a firearm into the hand of each American, and...

(I'll bet some of you see this coming...)

..and we each fire once and go home.


No need to wake the military.

 

[BerettaNut92]

In case of a Chinese invasion, Twoblink, Jesse_H and I will tunnel under and steal all their ammo and 30-round magazines.

Or we'll call the CA DOJ and tell them we know where a bunch of minorities are hiding 30-round magazines and unregistered AK receivers.

 

[MarineTech]

Personally, I'd forego the M16 and AK all together. If you're going to be operating during an invasion, you're most probably going to be acting in a guerilla role. Unless you can get a group of like minded individuals together, you're going to be operating alone. That means you need to use distance and "Hit and Fade" tactics to your advantage. Selecting a rifle capable of the sniper role, along with the ability to provide a volume of fire should it become necessary, and is going to stand up to field conditions with the possibility of receiving little cleaning. I'd probably grab an M1 Garand or an M1A.

Should I run low on ammo, and need to procure an enemy weapon for resupply, then the line the SgtMaj in We Were Soldiers used comes to mind, "If things get to the point where I need one, then I'm sure there'll be some lying around."

China has naval troop capabilities of one division. And this is for Taiwan, not crossing the entire Pacific Ocean.

If China did invade, Taiwan would probably invade China. Provinces like Tibet & Xinjiang would revolt. There'd be more chaos & dissention in China than in USA.

Those bases we have in Pearl Harbor, Guam, Japan, Korea would dump so much ordnance on Chinese shipping & ports that there'd be ZERO supplies for CHICOM forces in USA. They'd be searching OUR guns for ammo.

CHICOM forces in United States would probably shed their uniforms and desert as fast as happened in Korea. About 1/4 of them would look up relatives & friends already in USA and melt into large cities.

We'd have an overabundance of educated cheap labor. Probably would force illegal Mexicans to go home.

 

[another48hrs]

I wouldn't be afraid of the PLA, they are like the Salvation Army. They would rather help an old lady across the street and start a bake sale than attack the US.

 

[sw442642]

Fly C-130s over the invasion forces.
Drop Green Cards, licenses to drive taxis and open restaurants.

Wait

Welcome hard working new Americans to USA.
Eat in great new restaurants.
Have a good role model in a new set of valedictorians, kids who know calculus, etc, in our schools. Maybe our kids will get the hint.

I must say I got this from someone else.

It will be call the Takeover the USA, Sell Out , Takeout war.

 

[4v50 Gary]

Skunk, I don't think the CA DOJ is big enough to stem an armed invasion and to confiscate all those illegal weapons. Clearly this is an inter-agency problem requring some Calif. park rangers (since they have the beach) and of course, Federal assistance. Regarding the latter, I'm thinking primarily Immigration & Naturalization and secondly, those stalwart heroes behind the gold Shield, the ATF or whatever they're going to be after being absorbed into the Fed DoJ. Somebody's going to have to do "ballistic fingerprinting" if those guys are going to be allowed to keep their weapons.

Like the Russians use to joke, we'll lose the war when we starve trying to feed 1 million prisoners.

 

[Schuey2002]

Whatever rifle that I can get my mitts on..

I'd probably end up calling my local C3 dealer (who is a good friend) and ask him if I could "borrow" a few items.

 

[MLH]

IF they

Landed in the PRK they would so busy filling out forms to get free meds, food stamps, and all the other freebies that we would have plenty of time to get our troops back from Iraq or where ever.
