Skeet with the M90 Shotgun From Halo (What Could Go Wrong?) 

At one of the sporting clays courses I uses to shoot at, there was a trap that would throw the clays just a couple feet over the shooters head. It was always sketchy to shoot it late cause you would get hit by fragments. Watched one guy get hit the clay with only one pellet hit the clay and the large chunk sliced his cheek open. It was a fun target because it was just sketchy enough to be dangerous.

Unfortunately it's called drone skeet or Ukrainian skeet...

That's some Graystillplays level of stuff, right there.

Armour protection would be calculated to the final score in a bell curve, the heavier the armour you decrease your multiplier due to lower risk of injury, the middle of the armour range you have a higher score multiplier as you have moderate damage risk, but move relatively freely, the lighter your armour, the score multiplier lowers again, as you have higher risk of injury, but you can aim much more effectively and accurately.

That sounds f-ing epic!!! Sign me up if I didn’t live in nyc of all cursed places 🙃🥲

The HUD link is still secondary, irons and optics are the primary aiming system of UNSCDF personnel The sights aren’t modeled, except for halo 5 on the MA5 rifles; but as for lore, in _Halo: Contact Harvest_ there is a flip-up front and rear aperture on the triangular ammo counter housing.

Imagine all that technology is short circuited and then you suddenly can't aim.

@@aibadenshiThe guns do have backup iron sights much like we use if our optics go down. UNSC military just has all the advanced optics projected onto their HUD rather than physically mounted on the gun. If anything, I think that’s likely the next major paradigm shift for small arms. We aren’t going to come up with any better operating mechanisms in the next 100 years, but using augmented reality to aim rather than physical sights would be quite the boon.

@@gameragodzillaI suspect that railgun-type technology or directed energy weapons will become feasible within 100 years.

​@@gameragodzilla We're halfway there already with helmet IR tubes and weapon LAMs, but IMO moving the crosshair from one place to another doesn't seem like it'll change anything about infantry combat. The guns are already more accurate than the humans holding them and changing the sighting system won't make the humans fundamentally better at aiming under stress, so the logical next steps involve removing human error entirely. TrackingPoint and Smart Shooter are working on fire control systems that don't shoot until the computer is certain that the gun is pointing at the target, but they're still limited by the need for a human to do the pointing. The ultimate goal is the M56 Smartgun from Aliens which has a robot arm to aim itself and really only needs a human to carry it and give it permission to shoot, making that real would be a paradigm shift for infantry combat.

Shoulder muscles obliterated by 8 gauge recoil decreasing effectenes?

WOW that's funny

😃🎯😄😁😅😅🤣😂

This is a right-hand normative comment 😝

Sir, you insult me! You right handers and your oblivious arrogance, knows,no bounds!

​@@Lankythepyro Right is right.

We love to see it

What does he know? (I definitely know)

I have to replay the game now. I don't recall this detail.

@@RobotDCLXVI look closely, H3/ H2 is probably the easiest to see

​@@GarfieldEnjoyer1878as fun as it would be to play up the secret, I'll spill the beans on the 20y old game- one of the original Halo easter-eggs was the supposed existence of a hippo in the game. people scoured the game for this alleged hippo, which was found to be printed on the 8g shotgun shells. which could only briefly be seen when ejected from the shotgun, and then quickly zoomed in on once the hit the ground.

My Bofors is perfectly fine for trap, thank you. Finding Zeros and the pilots for them is getting a little expensive

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Agreed. Try a Rossi Circuit Judge or a combat shotgun with 8's

@@petepacent9772 I came in 2nd in a sporting clays competition with a 14" vang comp 870. Made some boomers maaaad

@@sjambok1 Ummmn, just FYI, I am a Generation Jones Baby Boomer circa late 1950's, but I get what you're saying. It pisses off the purist O/U crowd when I use a Winchester 1300 in skeet loaded with 4 rounds at stations 1,2,6 and 7. Admittedly I shoot better with my Tri-Star O/U that was given to me my my friemd's father when he died, but it's not as much fun as the pump. Additionally, operating a 12 gauge pump proficiently could be a very useful life skill. My Stevens tactical is a cylinder bore. It's too open for skeet with me being a slow, boomer, old fart, but clays are a lot farther away than 0 to 21 feet. Shoot straight and be kind.

Shooting trap with a Lee Enfield .410 musket is ridiculously fun and ridiculously stupid

Or it was from reach and for some reason the shotgun couldn't hit a grunt past 4 meter

A very good point, Ian the Alien slayer NEVER MISSES!! Long live Ian!!

Is that a thing, god damn it

God the Library requires a special mindset to enjoy. The trick is to play on Heroic with the Famine skull on. It gets a lot more interesting in a survival horror sort of way when you have to actually worry about ammo (as opposed to having a ton of magnum and shotgun ammo)

Gotta be a Pistol Rex.

I'd like to introduce you to Warframe...

A monument to all our sins.

Warframe’s Infestation is like a cartoonized but stronger Flood.

@@AngryProtoBoi Don't know how that's possible. At least in the lore, the Flood are just cartoonishly overpowered. Honestly, it's one of the big issues I have with even Bungie-era Halo lore. They were better when they were just really-fucking-hard-to-exterminate space zombies.

@@arnox4554 Fair enough.

Chesty Puller asked where to put a bayonet when shown a flame thrower.

The Halo games had genuinely great art direction and it shows.

Most likely they're an afterthought/backup for in case the HUD fails or for users who don't have one (eg. rear line personnel, police forces, civilian market).

Yes....came here to say the same thing. Lead and swing with the target...never stop.

or trying to pull a super heavy trigger since its basically a bullpup trigger with the extension to make it work

And get on that going away bird fast, before it starts turning on edge.

the sweat

Modernity. Nuclear powered aircraft carriers. Tanks with depleted uranium armor. Steroid fueled special forces with night vision. Still using steel knives.

@@aceambling7685 what can I say, we like our pointy sticks

@@aceambling7685 I can understand us not having vibro-blades or plasma swords. I don't understand an FTL-capable society not having laser weapons or railguns.

@@blackopsaf3471 "Old Reliable".

@@chainsawsubtlety9828 they have both of those things. Have you ever actually played Halo?

His MJOLNIR Armor is in the shop, apparently 🤔

That’s weird that your spread was a donut, I wonder what could have caused that to happen? Though it was good of the range master to show you why you couldn’t hit any tiny targets with that gun. Safest place for any tiny thing was dead center of your aim.

@@Dwarg91 yep, if I had just done the exact thing that we learned not to do, and aimed directly at the birds, I would have hit most of them. I had a older gunsmith say it was something to do with the barrel and how shot passed out of the receiver into the barrel. I never had enough money, nor able to find a spare barrel to try and test it tho.

Came to say that, too.

There's probably manufacturers watching this and scratching their chins🧐

I mean... is it???

It literally is
