Usually, the contest consists of three phases: The first is designed to demonstrate physical fitness: 8 km cross-country race, followed by 100-meter dash.

Finally got the chaotic rapier ^^ Took me like a month or so to get it. Wanted to make a vid fast because there aren't too many chaotic rapier vids in youtube yet and I think people really want's to see how it rap3s :) Reasons for picking rapier: Rapier = Speed same as on: Whip.Ss - It's like a streroided whip with agressive attack style Longsword = Pretty same as a corrupted vesta longsword thought much more cheaper of course but I wanted a new kind of weapon :P Maul = Same speed as on gs, well it has better strenght bonus than on Ags but Ags spec hits more anyway and when I use Msb/Ags or such I usually k0 before I need to use normal hits This is not vid 17. This is just like a vid with mostly some rapier pking.

Intended to engage manpower located in the open, in trenches and on reverse slopes of the terrain, and soft-skinned war materiel by high-performance fragmentation ammunition. The weight of the weapon, which is twice as less that of the first-generation AGS-17 grenade launcher, has made it possible to enlarge the ammunition load, to reduce the crew from three to two men, and to increase the weapon mobility and flexibility. Small dimensions of the grenade launcher allow it to conceal the fire position, rapidly change it, and deliver fire from window openings. Basic Characteristics Round VOG-17M, VOG-30, GPD-30 Caliber, mm 30 Weight with mount without ammunition box and sight, kg 17 Rate of fire, rds/min at least 400 Accurate firing range, m VOG-17M, VOG-30 up to 1700 GPD-30 up to 2100 Ammunition load, rds 30 Overall dimensions, mm 490x735x1165 Предназначен для поражения высокоэффективными осколочными боеприпасами открыто расположенной живой силы, в том числе находящейся в окопах, траншеях и на обратных скатах местности, а также для поражения объектов небронированной военной техники.

JSO - Jedinica za Specijalne Operacije (Crvene Beretke)
JEDINICA ZA SPECIALNE OPERACIJE (JSO) Unit for Special Operations The JSO is one of the most secretive Serbian special operations units, placed under the control of the State Security Service (SDB). The unit's first commander was Franko "Frenki" Simatovic, a veteran of the wars in Croatia and Bosnia, and he is also assumed to have been the Chief of Special Forces of State Security. The direct action element of the SDB was first formed in 1991 under the name Jedinica za posebnu namenu (JPN), and was renamed to Jedinica za Specijalne Operacije (JSO) soon after. Detailed information about the JSO is very hard to come by and verify, but a general picture can be put together using various sources. The JSO is sometimes considered to be a paramilitary force, rather than a government special operations unit, and goes by several nicknames including, "Frenkijevci," after the commander Franko Simatovic, and the "Red Berets." They are primarily used for "black" operations, including assassinations and surgical strikes against suspected terrorists. The chain of command that the JSO goes through is unclear, but it has been reported that they answered directly to Milosevic during the conflict in Kosovo. There have been a lot of rumors concerning the JSO, both about their activities and their appearances. Reports have members of the JSO wearing cowboy hats, pigtails, black uniforms, uniforms of the Ministry of Interior and cream-colored uniforms. They have been accused of vast slaughters <b>...</b>

The AGS-17 Plamya (Russian: Пламя; Flame) is a Soviet-designed automatic grenade launcher currently in production in the Russian Federation and in service worldwide.
Description
The AGS-17 is a heavy infantry support weapon designed to operate from a tripod or mounted on an installation or vehicle. The AGS-17 fires a steady rate of 30 mm grenades in either direct or indirect fire modes to provide suppressive and lethal fire support against soft skinned targets or fortification targets.The weapon operates using a blowback mechanism to sustain operation. Rounds are fired through a rifled barrel which is removable quickly to reduce barrel stress.
Ammunition is held in a metal box feed, and is linked. Standard boxes contain 30 rounds of linked ammunition.
The tripod is equipped with fine leveling gear for indirect fire trajectories.
Development
Development of the AGS-17 (Avtomatischeskyi Granatmyot Stankovyi - Automatic Grenade launcher, Mounted) had been started in the USSR in 1967 by the OKB-16 design bureau (now known as the famous KBP Instrument Design Bureau, located in the city of Tula). Most probably, its development was inspired by the Sino-Soviet border conflict of the late 1960s, as well as initial experience with several US automatic grenade launchers, learned from Vietnamese troops who often were on the receiving end of these weapons.It was thought that the automatic grenade launcher would be one of the most effective infantry support weapons against typical Chinese "human wave" attacks. This lightweight weapon was to provide infantry with close to medium range fire support against enemy personnel and unarmored targets like trucks and other such equipment. First prototypes of new weapon entered trials in 1969, and mass production commenced in 1971.
At the same timeframe, the special heliborne version AG-17 was developed for installation on Mi-24 Hind gunship helicopters. Never used against Chinese, AGS-17 was widely used and well liked by Soviet troops in Afghanistan as a ground support weapon or as a vehicle weapon on improvised mounts installed on armored personnel carriers and trucks.
It is still in use with Russian army as a direct fire support weapon for infantry troops; it is also installed in several vehicle mounts and turrets along with machine guns, guided rocket launchers and sighting equipment. A special airborne version AG-17A was installed in door mounts of several Mil Mi-8 Hip combat transport helicopters, and on gun pods used on late model Mi-24 Hind gunships; this weapon had a thick aluminium jacket on the barrel and used a special mount and an electric remotely controlled trigger. It's being replaced with AGS-30 launcher (using the same ammunition, it weights only 16 kg unloaded on the tripod and has upgraded blowback action).
Ammunition
The AGS-17 fires caliber 30x29 (belted) cartridges with a steel cartridge case. Two types of ammunition are currently commonly fired from the AGS-17. The VOG-17M is the currently available version of the original 30 mm grenade ammunition, and has a basic high explosive fragmentation warhead. The VOG-30 is similar but contains better explosive filler and an enhanced fragmentation design that greatly increases the effective blast radius.
