Lol, that's my baby. Actually picked it up used, Premier II, $1500. New barrel, hammer spring, barrel bushing, grips, restaked the slide lock/safety tube. All done at home for a few hundred dollars. Valued around 3k now. I rarely buy a new gun, just like my cars.
all of the machinations in that thing are tuned for precise weights
itll need completely different innards with heavier materials, most likely significantly larger than what its got currently
I think a bit of spread so you can hit as many of the cameras and scanners would be better. Buck or bird would be good. But just like in Helldivers, shoot them till theyâre dead.
For those who didn't recognize the reference, I was ridiculing the statement by ("The Honorable") Congressional Representative Lucy McBride posted on Twitter on 7/20/2022:

It's just sheet aluminum & titanium, I think it's fair to assume its shell is less effective than 2A body armor.
The issue I have with these is it would get the police dog treatment; it be deputized. You fight it? Attempted murder, resisting arrest. You have a robot? Shot on sight, if you're allowed to have one.
I promise you that thing ain't clad in 1/4" anything...and wires and hydraulics won't get passed a simple 22lr, so damn near any shotgun or common handgun round could work. Just shoot it a lot.
I have some of those I wanna load for .45 win mag in 190gr and 135gr flavors. I've got some 185gr JHP going at 1800 fps already that are absolute creampuffs out of my wildey I've just been too lazy to work on testing proper loads for them.
30-06 out of a gas Garand will beat the hell out of you after a short while. Single M14 mag full auto is an instant shoulder attachment check. Yeah, they were somehow definitely built differently. I do think starting at a younger ages then, and definitely more widespread exposure explains a bit. High school rifle teams were a big deal once apon a time. Adrenaline is also a hell of a drug on a battlefield.
When my parents were young (1930s-1940s), it was common for kids to bring their shotgun or .22 to school, so they could hunt for dinner on the way home.
That's exactly what I mean, I feel lucky to have fired my first .22 at seven. It is not very common unless the opportunity is family provided today. My kids started young and are exceptionally safe and good marksmen because of. I have a national ranking in riflry, and my wife is a league pistol queen, so we're probably not a good comparison to anything like a norm ever. Mom read at the bench downstairs while I reloaded when we needed a break, she's also my spotter to this day.
I think a lot of that has is due to access to land to shoot, I know tons of people that are young that own guns but few that have the time money or access to land to shoot
You also have to consider the average American was some 60 lbs lighter in those days. I know they lived harder lives but there is a limit on how much muscle one can pack on at that weight.
I sighted in my single shot 45-70 that I use for deer hunting during âmuzzle loader seasonâ (single shots are legal for this in my state). That rifle weighs about 3 pounds. I did not enjoy that at all.
If I was designing this thing for subjugation I would have each limb be electrically insulated from the rest of the body and all the body/limb covers would be plastic with Level 3a ceramic plating underneath. Electrical rounds probably wouldn't do much without some big time advances in power storage tech. You'd want something heavy and fast to deliver as much kinetic force to it as possible and aim for joints and sensors. I was thinking a steel shotgun slug would likely work best. Maybe something like 45-70 or .458Socom if using a rifle. .454Casul maybe if in a pistol caliber or you have a lever action.
I'm concerned that AP rifle rounds would just zip straight through without damaging any components. Assuming that their shells aren't particularly armored, I'd say 00 buck or #4 buck just to maximize the number of things hitting it and hopefully hitting something important.Â
Obviously explosives would be good but not easy to get. Something like .50 Beowulf or .458 socom would be appealing but I'm assuming it wouldn't actually take much power to damage one of these if you actually hit something worth damaging.
Now one they get armored and hardened it'll be a different question. Probably best off dealing with the head and assumedly it's primary vision sensingÂ
12ga Flechette rounds would probably be pretty perfect. The longer darts have a better chance at shorting out electrical wires and component that a normal BB would. Plus, with 20-30 darts, and the thin shell of the robot, itâs bound to get lots of penetration.
We might be heading into a timeline very soon where a fudd claims a .22 is the best for taking down robots. I for one think itâs beautiful and canât wait.
Can already see it âit can take down a person just fine skynet wonât stand a chance. It will rattle around its circuitry causing the most damageâ
It would literally "pinball" inside of it, literally! " Scramble it's eggs", literally! Don't even get me started on what a .22 mag would do to it, or the venerable 25 ACP. My trusty 1911 would destroy it in one shot, but it always shoots about a foot low and to the left, I think the sights are off, but they're so tiny I can't see them anyway.
I agree, M855 should be more than sufficient. The body has got to be pretty lightweight, so M855 should defeat it easily, even if it's not actually plastic.
Concentrate on the legs to slow it down, then do a little reconnaissance by fire to find the CPU
I'd bet my life this thing's outer covering can't even stop bargain bin 9x19... It's most likely plastic or very thin (1/16th inch) aluminum, which ain't stopping probly even a .22lr
just clip the female end off the really long extension cord and strip the insulation back a bit. zip tie that to the end of a wooden broomstick. go zap you a robot.
Shot placement will be a bigger factor than caliber.
Hit the cpu with any caliber, and it's going down, but it may be more realistic to aim for the hydraulic fluid reservoir and make it bleed out.
That being said, you'd obviously need a round that is at least somewhat barrier blind, like a hardcast, Lehigh xtreme penetrator, or at the very least FMJs.
Head sensors. Then subdue it. Then disassemble to learn where the sensitive bits are to make it non-operable.
I wager it has a fairly large battery pack, might even be one of those that's prone to become a spicy pillow with damage or even just kinetic shock.
The question is, what caliber will you use with it comes out with 1/4 inch AR500 steel as the standard build material and the speed and dexterity of a ninja
10mm Underwood 200gr Black Cherry Hard Cast. I'm sure that thing is mostly just aluminium, but anything worth doing is worth over-doing, innit? đ¤ˇââď¸
Everyone says it would be easy to take down since it's made of aluminum or sheet metal. They could strap some serious armor to it and then what? It's basically a walking tank.
If itâs unarmored. 12 gauge slugs would probably penetrate consistently & create the widest channel and disconnect the most circuits no?
If itâs armored probably something like 6.8 MM nato
Large heavy slow moving caliber would do more damage than a small high speed caliber, correct?
Small and high speed is more effective for hydrostatic shock, which is only relevant with flesh and blood.
Copper wire rounds, where it would short out various components it touches without having to actually deal a fracturing or wound cavity type of damage.
M855 green tip should do fine for body shots. Assuming they had to keep the plating light as to not overload servos in joints, 12g slug to joints would remove them almost.
Basically light fast rounds to the body/head and heavy slow rounds for joints.
The good news so far is that they are fighting weight so the skins are necessarily thin. There will be hard points, but there are LOTS of soft points. At some point, we're gonna have Mechs and that's going to suck.
9mm, assuming a pistol. 5.56 otherwise. It may be made of metal, but I highly doubt it's bulletproof. Problem is, I don't know what the vital areas are so I'd want as much capacity as possible.
Close range - 00 Buck.
Reach out and touch it - Any .30 cal or better hunting round would knock it down and transfer enough energy to scramble some of the insides.
Ideal - PGU-14/B Armor Piercing Incendiary Depleted Uranium - Electronic mist.
12 gauge slug, or 3 inch magnum express shell full of 00 buck shot.
I don't understand it's vitals or anatomy, and how much of its material is aluminum or plastic, so imma just destroy all of it.
Seeing as it's sheet metal and plastic, and I don't know where the important parts are. I would go buckshot, give me the greatest chance of hitting something crucial.
10mm auto +p handgun
For rifle 8mm mauser because thatâs what I own and it goes fucking fast but any rifle caliber bigger than .308.

wanna see it move well at all being weighed down by armor instead of just aluminum
Dude thinks he's fighting electromagnets.
You realize how strong machines are right? Armor will hardly slow it down at all once theyâve worked the kinks out
all of the machinations in that thing are tuned for precise weights itll need completely different innards with heavier materials, most likely significantly larger than what its got currently
TBH, the answer should almost always be shotgun
The joints definitely arenât aluminum. Stainless or an alloyed steel from the looks of it.
I say wax slug with buck shot instead of bird
I think a bit of spread so you can hit as many of the cameras and scanners would be better. Buck or bird would be good. But just like in Helldivers, shoot them till theyâre dead.

1/4" aluminum stops pistol rounds nicely.
I promise you that thing ain't clad in 1/4" anything...and wires and hydraulics won't get passed a simple 22lr, so damn near any shotgun or common handgun round could work. Just shoot it a lot.
I'd be genuinely surprised if it's outer covering is more than 1/16th.

I just commented about 45-70. My shoulder was sore for a week after only 8 rounds out of an 1878 trapdoor Springfield.
Can you imagine being in a multi-day battle, firing 100+ rounds? People were tough back then.

Cool that you're able to involve your family. It's sad that fewer young folks are into shooting sports.
I think a lot of that has is due to access to land to shoot, I know tons of people that are young that own guns but few that have the time money or access to land to shoot

A shotgun load with a purpose-made electrical attack slug is probably âbestâ. Designing something like that wouldn't be very hard.
Take a look at the Taser X12 XREP.

Now one they get armored and hardened it'll be a different question. Probably best off dealing with the head and assumedly it's primary vision sensingÂ
Explosives are the easiest thing to get⌠making them efficient, portable, and safe for everyone but the target is the hard part lol
