Are Glocks good guns?
>>28479350
Only gen 3 in 9mm
>>28479350
They're good. Not great, but they do the job of being a point and shooty.
>>28479374
What is wrong with gen 4s?
How's it going /k/ombat bros. I'm sure many of you have heard of the firearms legend Hickok45 who makes amazing firearm videos. However, they recently deleted his account, which was arguably the best gun channel on the website. Do any of you know why this would have happened? He doesn't seem to have possibly broken any copyright laws, as he doesn't play music, and to be quite honest I can see any justifiable reason for taking the actions that they did.
>>28479331
Wait, they got rid of him? you gotta be fucking kidding me...
>>28479331
Do you literally not see the other thread with almost 200 fucking replies
Already a thread, friend
What was your first handgun /k/?
My Dad said that he'll give me his old snub .38 special (I don't remember who it was manufactured by, but it looks like pic related) if I do well this semester. So I'll probably own a handgun two years earlier than I expected to.
HK uspc cuz im oper8ter
>>28479081
My first handgun was this Colt King Cobra. I picked it up at a gun show when I had to provide my own sidearm for a security job. I found this for $450.
>>28479081
First handgun was a 44 special charter arms bulldog pug....bought it with the GW Bush stimulus
I am building an AR and I want a red dot. I was looking at the Vortex Strikefire and the Sparc 2. How are these 2 red dot sights?

>>28478836
PSA Microdot.
>>28478843
>>28478844
Either one of these, no fucking point in getting the Vortex RDs anymore
I was having a foreing policy/geopolitics class in University, the subject was military strategy. My teacher commented that Brazil made an interesting deal purchasing the Swedish jets, and that before that, Brazil was thinking about either buying Russian SU-30s or American F-15s. He said that as far as dogfighting goes, SU-30s would be better.
Is he right or just an American hating commie?
tl;dr F-15 vs SU-30
>>28478539
In pure dogfighting they're on pretty equal footing, but pure dogfighting isn't a good metric to measure a good combat aircraft these days.
America believes that dogfighting doesn't take place in a modern war, and that's reflected in their jets. Russia doesn't think the same way.
>>28478846
Then why was a russian aircraft that was supposed to be good at avoid being hit by missiles shot down in syria by a downgraded version of the already obsolete f-16?
I would like to see your DDR East German items. Posting mine.
Anything East German related is welcome, photos, cartoons, etc.

I had a neat idea, /k/.
What if (IF, please don't shit all over me immediately) a company based in Hawaii or California came out, managed to buy a decommissioned WW2 era ship and used it to give cruises of the pacific, focusing on sites of naval battles and stops along the island hopping campaign?
Would you want to go?
>>28477738
Fuck yes
>sites of naval battles
Yeah watching water after water will be super exciting and the experience will only improve from living in tiny, unsanitary quarters while rooming with /k/.
Sure, if they could make it safe
God help them though
Hey /k/, is what this picture says true? Are there any sources/statistics that back it up? Please ignore all the fucked up stuff the woman in the picture is doing.

Detroit does not have tough gun laws. It has the same laws as the rest of Michigan.
No.

How should I protect me and mine from these invaders when the inevitable violence starts?

There were a bunch of Brits that figured out how to solve this problem long ago.
>get inna boat

I'd start with that.
Don't defend yourself. You don't have that right -- just look at what happened to Tony Martin.

If he wins it ain't so bad though I guess
If human bones are harder than steel and concrete, and swords are able to cut through those, how come master swordsmen can't slice steel? Checkmate

But they do.
>>28475906
Because human bones aren't harder than steel or concrete.

Why would any sane non-puerto rican/non-Italian person live in that shithole called New Jersey?
The people there are annoying and gaudy as fuck.
Everytime one of you degenerates opens your mouth I want to squirt bleach inside in the high hopes of making you a mute. Your vocalizations are like fingernails on a chalkboard to the rest of our west coast ears.
Please stay in your containment state.

kek , where are you from?
Could it be said that air power is the most important aspect of modern warfare?
>>28475405
I don't know. Try saying it.
propaganda > logistics > intel > actual fighting
>>28475482
Deterrence trumps all of that, aka having nukes. You can have a shit army and no logistics but as long as you have 5k no one is messing with you (see Russia).
I've heard through YouTube vids that crap ammo is inherently inaccurate and buying quality ammo is essential for accuracy. Keep in mind I heard this from Sootch00 who seemed to be shilling for HPR ammo which is unreasonably pricey for what it seems to be. What do you think /K/?
>is blaming accuracy on ammo a copout? Or is there some merit to it?
Out of trigger pull, barrel quality, and ammo, ammo is the single most important quality for a precise weapon.
Idk is HPR is anything special but buying better quality match ammo is essential to extracting the maximum amount of precision from your gun.
>>28475335
For self defense and competion I can understand, but for general plinking, cheap reloads seem the way to go no?
There is some merit to it. "Quality" of ammo is generally referring to consistency of ammo. i.e. powder charge is exactly the same for each round, projectiles are very close in size, etc. Having consistent ammunition is key to shooting consistent groups (shooter is still the main factor, but ammo matters too). Cheap ammunition sacrifices some of this consistency, that's how they can make it for cheaper price.
