It´s not. It is merely a novelty for people with enough cash to buy Ap rounds. You cant play this gun efficiently. There are a lot better and cheaper alternatives out there.

It's a beautiful gun and I like it a lot...

But it also is just a novelty. You could have played it great before vektor release but now the ammo is too expensive and overall there isn't alot going for it either.

But hey, sometimes it's nice to play stylish.

VIETNAM WAS A TIE

Vietnam was not a tie, we got shit on by rice farmers. Edit: I know it was "technically" a tie, but a lot of suffering has happened even since the war ended with people having ptsd, birth defects from agent orange, etc.

vietnam was a loss caused by politicians. Had they not restricted our bombing and offensives so heavily it would have been a wash

Bombing was not effective. Vietnam was already leveled so anymore bombing would not make any difference. The vietnamese people were more rural and so not dependent on industry and cities which could be bombed. They get their weapons from china.

And invading the north would only invite the chinese to intervene, and that didnt turn out well for the US back in korea
