Britbongs and Marine Corps have it right. The psychological impact on the enemy alone from having a man screaming murder while charging you with a rifle turned spear is worth it. Bunch of taliban turned their robes brown and ran because a couple bongs fixed bayonets and charged them in 2011.
I’d rather stab them with boolets
Bayonet charges are painfully retarded tryhard shit, the battlefield is more hostile to infantry than ever before and to discard what few advantages they still have for some gay flex is going to bite back hard one day. It worked out that time, good for them; but one day it wont and the potential psychological impact on an enemy that would have been cleared by artillery anyway is far overshadowed by the psychological impact of a squad of royal marines finding out a second too late that theyre in the killzone of a PKM.
Have fun dying when you go through a door with your neutered 10.5 AR and a guy is right in your face with a knife. 20 inch rifles with bayonets are for real men only which explains why sois hate them.
>ignores the benefit of physical and mental training that the bayonet provides
>ignores the environments bayonets are used in (anywhere artillery or airstrikes can't)
Cool, enjoy breaking up that riot with a PKM or clearing a drug house with a JDAM you stupid bitch.

Retard boomer argument
Riot control police doesn't use bayonets or pikes or two hand swords for a reason. Because lethal melee weapons suck ass for riot control
IF you have lethal weapon authorization you just shoot them, much safer and controlled than getting into bloody melee (God forbid Palestinians you fighting have suicide bombers in the crowd and snipers on the near rooftops).
If you don't have lethal weapon authorization your bayonet is useless and they send you into combat with empty hands.
But i see why "not problem boomers" can invent such stupid arguments.
You don't know shit, artillery and air can't kill everything, in fact because they are so effective today, infantry combat happens at close range against well hidden and entrenched enemies.
We were the last generation to play outside. Nur noch ein gott kan uns retten.
>tapco on a SKS
I thought we wiped your kind out ages ago.
>that moment of flexing on the Argies
Based bongs.
It's a highly situational thing, but it definitely can have a strong effect when used at the right time.
The two correct times to use it being:
>when you're on the verge of overrunning the enemy's defenses
>when you've been forced into extreme close quarters fighting
OP’s tubby ass is really going to talk about bayonet combat like I couldn’t wrestle his rifle out of his hands, pull his pants down, and rape him in the mud with ease.
>Bayonets terrify the mutt
Due to suppressors Marines can no longer mount bayonets and nothing of value was lost because the last people to try bayonet charges were the Japanese in WW2 and they got molested by machine guns and mortars
British did successful bayonet charges in Falklands, Iraq and Afghanistan
Fix it? It ain't broke.
>fix
Child confirmed. You must be 18 to post here.
The whole purpose of training with Bayonets is to desensitise soldiers to extreme violence.
Shooting paper targets, even man shaped ones is fairly sterile and impersonal.
Being told to stab a target to death and to scream like a maniac as you do it is slightly different.
This
It's a shame OP is just a thinly vieled fartsniffer making yet another thread where he can talk about marines AND bongs at the same time.
>knives
>extreme violence
LOOOOOOOOOOL
You can see it in all hoodrats videos. Somebody pulls out knife or machete and everyone just stand watching. "whats up, neeeeeerd?"
Somebody fires a gun? Everybody just GTFO at light speed without looking back. Because deep inside their lizard brain they know: gun is a pinnacle of the violence. It is just instinct that cant be disobeyed.

lmao didn't this guy have twitter posts about training with a gladius?
Germanys nee service rifle, the HK416 A8, also will come with a bayonet to every soldier.
I remember that scene in 'Saving Private Ryan', where the yank and the german end up a few feet from each other and both out of ammo. I laughed my keks off when they both threw their guns at each other, then their helmets. If he had a bayonet, that german would have been killed much earlier. It's something the Yanks dont get, sometimes in battle your gun jams, you run out of ammo or you just want to stab a fucker in the guts and hear him scream. It is rarely like on the firing range at home.
>member that scene in that movie
>do you member?
Fucking moron
>Fix bayonet and stop being a p-ACK!!!
>The psychological imp... ACK!
>didn't check the corner
>NGMI
