I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Stens you could build in bicycle shop but I imagine they were a lot more repairs and fabrications back in the old shops. I wouldn't touch some of these behind a wall of sandbags pulling the trigger with a string

Apparently most of the big ethnic armies have their own weapons factories producing various weapons, aside from AKs (including the Yat-Thai, a craft produced 5.56x45mm AK clone made in the Shan/Chin states using M16 barrels) the Type 81 rifle has shown up (used by the Kachin Independence army, essentially the SKS evolved into a AK format) and the newer QBZ-03. (a AK style rifle firing the Chinese 5.8mm round, used by the government and the Wa State Army)

There's a lot of photos with extremely worn-out looking M16A1s with all the finish gone and sometimes hand-crafted wooden handguards. I saw one video where the soldier the cameraman was following spends most of it trying to get his rifle to cycle more than one round.

The Kachin Army also produces a grenade launcher version of the Type 81.

BIG HEADLINE

"Stand back, Ottawan ruffian, or face my lumens!"

Just a reminder that this was OVER SIX YEARS in the making, and the Navy originally wanted the ability to postpone this until 2025: https://gcaptain.com/u-s-navy-ordered-to-shock-test-worlds-costliest-ship/

That being said, the Navy's always been a bit gun shy with shock testing the big dicks - as I recall, the Nimitz class wasn't shock tested until TWELVE YEARS after its commissioning in 1987, coincidentally the last time we shock tested ANY carrier, I think. They'd already completed like 3-4 hulls by that point.

Its more to see what breaks loose or is damaged when the shock hits.

If you wanted to sink it, put that immediately underneath the carrier. It'll sink with ease when its spine snaps in the bubble.

To be fair here, there is a very good chance that LAPD HQ had no idea that their EOD guys caused the explosion or no idea why they would do that
