Ive got pic related.
UK here and real guns are somewhat hard to come by, a lot of hoops to jump through to do it legit and Id rather not even attempt to buy a gun illegally.
Anyway, my air pistol when fired at a paper back book tore 37 pages and the cover which was a little thicker, and left a visible mark on another 20 or....how much damage could this do to a person?? Pretty sure if i shot someone in the eye then that eye is fucked for life and it would definately break skin but i doubt it would be lethal.
>2016
>using a toy for self defense
>>29986127
Its most definitely not a toy and i dont use it for self defense, I go target shooting from time to time, im just wondering how much damage this can do to a person....im fairly accurate with it, i can hit a cigarette at 30 feet....but beyond that wind and drop become factors....point being...if i shot all 6 bbs at someones face at close range do you think it would incapacitate them at all or just piss them off?
>>29986140
I think your only hope would be to hit them in the eyes. Good luck tho.
Are we any closer to having a single uniform across all services /k/? Or are the Joint Chiefs somehow resisting this change?
>>29986004
>that ranger tab
TRIGGERED
It won't happen anytime soon at least, I can see the marines keeping their current camo for another 10 or so years at least, all other branches are sometimes allowed to use a multicam derivative when working with the army, that's about as close as we'll see for a while.
>>29986004
Muhreens resist the idea of looking like anything like the army since they are a bunch of special snowflakes.
>>29986004
The Air Force and Marines are living evidence that nothing will ever be unified. They are so unnecessary that they needed congress to make sure the Army didn't absorb them.
/k/ filename thread: we should have these more often edition.
Chinese surplus /k/,
Will it try to kill me ?
Just found very cheap chink 7,62. Just have no idea how it behaves
I m in europe fyi
It probably won't kill you. As long as you're not using a shit shovel AK or khyber pass copy, you should be ok.
>>29985886
It s a SDM chink ak
I use these a lot because they're cheap. They smell a little bit like piss and you need to hose your gun afterward but they're ok. Don't expect match accuracy obviously.
ITT we decide what's the best DMR
>M110
>M14
>SVD
>SVU
>VSS
>M14 EBR
>HK 417
>SCAR
which one do you think is best and why?
>>29985754
Scar orsvd
>>29985754
>>29985754
By process of elimination, we can discard the M14 (never properly bedded), M14 EBR (frontheavy POS) and VSS (arguably not a DMR).
That just leaves 2 SVDs, 2 AR10s and a SCAR. At that point, its just personal preference and mission profile desu.
What's the current equivalent to what mosin nagant was 5/10 years ago? Aka cheapest available actually decent rifle to elevate me from noguns to hasguns
mosin nagant
>>29985721
Ruger 10/22: affordable, decent, plenty of parts/customisable, good intro platform for beginner.
>>29985743
Not OP, but my cunt has shitty firearm laws, and been looking at these since they're one of the few things I can get
I need a semi-auto pistol with a hammer that you do not have to rack the slide on to cock and works similarly to a double action revolver
what guns do this?
>>29985650
The one pictured, with an LEM trigger. Most popular DA/SA guns have a DAO variant.
Technically D/SA is double action. Just thought I'd get that out of the way.
>>29985669
Anything smaller than that for CC?
>>29985650
You know what you must do. Legion or bust.

Only in Sweden can they cut the air force in half and call it an improvement.

Pick one.

Is he right?
He's a bong he doesn't know guns
>nogunz bong talking about guns
>>29985335
his argument goes boils around to
bern is better because they country that produced it won the war and subsequently it promoted and developed it's military tech and promoted it's arms abroad
germany did not
thus
>Bren gun > MG34-42
it's a cringe worthy video from it's begging to end
Full auto is meant for suppression but would it also be viable in a self defense situation?
>>29985306
If you are within 15 meters of your attacker then yeah, id use it.
>>29985306
You should be suppressing with semi automatic shots spaced 2-3 seconds apart, no on full auto.
>>29985306
id use a beretta 93r for home defense
Fuck /k/.
I did it again. I changed my mind about which MOS to join.
MEPS is Monday and I need to choose soon.
Yes, I know I will be dying for Israel, yes I know Cav Scouts basically do Infantry's job.
Other than those reasons, which should I do. Help me out /k/. Experiences? Thoughts?
19D if you have a vagina.
More options and better career progression in 11B.

Be really fucking gay.

Probably as option if Bumerang ends up as shit.
when were you when MRAP flies?
>>29985134
The two serve different roles and were developed together, not as a replacement.
Also good luck slinging a Bumerang out of an 76. That's what the BMDs are for.
>>29985134
Your pic is wrong, m8.
The VDV testing 'mini-typhoon'.

Serious question. The wierd kid came into class with a NATURAL SELECTION t-shirt. PIC unrelated I don't have anything on my phone
>>29984750
Follow his twitter
>>29984750
Be super nice to him. He'll tweet you when it's time.
become friends with the odd guy so that when he kills everyone you get spared.
A very wise man once said
"Another one"
But seriously why are there overnight 5 brands of lever action shotguns for Australia? Its an alternate reality where the pump action was never invented now
>>29984580
Aren't they trying to ban pump action shotguns down under?
>>29984670
Pumps were restricted (heavily) with semi autos in 1996
Hence why we have 5 brands of lever action shotguns
>>29984681
That's some fucking logic. Pumps aren't any better than levers in terms of anything that matters.
Of course your country doesn't really get that
