How likely is it to survive a gunshot wound?
Depends how far away a hospital is and what you get shot with
There are a variety of factors which would determine survivability.
>Caliber
>Range
>Placement
>Bullet Type
>Time until medical treatment is performed
>>29944349
Depends on shot location
Depends medical skill & availability
Even depends on caliber, rifle vs pistol vs shotgun
Depends on ammo
Depends on range
Too many variables & Google still works
-shit thread, lurk moar faggot
what are /k/'s opinions and experience about the Ruger American series of rifles? I got to finger fuck both a .22LR and a .308 rifles. both with threaded barrels. I'm really thinking about getting the .22LR.
>>29944307
I know a guy who has one, he likes it. If you're in the market for a bolt .22 ID go with that, especially if you already have a 10/22 since they can share mags. I'm kinda tempted to get one since half of my .22 is remshit I was gifted that is useless in either of my semi's. Of course a threaded barrel out of the box is a big plus.
I'd go for the .22, but for the .308 I've played with savages more so I would probably go with one of theirs. That could easily just be bias on my part though.
>smooth
>accurate
>fast action
>use 10/22 mags
Only issue I've had with mine was the stock was warped. I bought a Boyd's stock for mine and I love it.

I didn't know boyd makes a stock for them?
/k/ I was just robbed earlier today...
Some gy walked right up to me asked did I know what time it was. I looked at my phone and next thing I knew I had a gun in my face. I was surprised, and took a step back. He demanded my wallet AND my cell phone. I had my gun in my pocket, but I didn't pull it out. I ended up giving him my credit card and fake PIN number as well as my cellphone. I feel like a complete little bitch. I should have taken out my gun and shot him when he was walking away, but I was too startled to think straight....
Did I do the right thing just giving...

You are alive and assuming your phone is insured you have lost nothing but a bit of pride, count yourself very lucky.

>Did I do the right thing just giving up like that?
you could say yes since you were not physically harmed but you should have shot him. dont judge yourself with hindsight
>>29944261
>Did I do the right thing just giving up like that?
Decide that for yourselve.
I wouldn't want to shoot a kid for sneaking into my living room and bagging my TV but I would have less issue with someone directly threatening me. Now some fellow /k/omrades will call you a pussy, other will tell you you did good not to shoot someone in the back after the life threatening sitation was "over" but at the end of the day your reflection on the matter is what is important.
so I'm 19 my father was a navy seal (serious) on seal team 6 for 7 years.. he's only taken me shooting once with his 9mm and 22.. what things should I ask him to teach me? I really want my own firearm but I think he wouldn't want to do that. I can legally own a handgun without permit here in Texas so that's not an issue
>>29944182
Sounds legit.
Bullshit meter exploded.

I'm dead ass serious he was a navy seal I know that is the oldest pasta around but I am not lying 100% I've seen all his pics and spoken to some of his military friends

What's to stop a lone woof from "joining" ISIS so they can assassilate legit members in friendly fire "accidents" over and over again until they are no more?
The fact that everyone else is also armed and it wouldn't be as easy as "oh wow haha sorry my fellow jihadists, I just shot Abdulah, boy these AKs do have some shitty sights! Now, please turn your back to me, both hands on that wall over there and close your ears, I have a surprise for you!".
Also, really stupid idea to go behind the lines of an enemy known for it's torture methods.

What if one of the lone woofs IED's himself at an ISIS meetup / potluck?

As of a couple days ago, there remains only one living person who was born in the 1800s.

Therefore, I feel it is appropriate to celebrate this glorious century of European dominance, rapidly-advancing weapons technology, and based facial hair. It may be forever remembered as the high water mark of Western civilization, before shit went downhill starting with WWI.
epic facial hair as far as the eye can see

The myth just got busted

If the diamond had been real, the press wouldn't have been able to crush it.

Never fucking heard of that. I have heard that extreme hardness does not equal to good protection thou.

I identify as KC-135 Stratotanker. I fantasize about filling other smaller aircraft full of delicious aviation fuel.

China is not afraid of fighting a war with the US in the South China Sea, a newspaper with close links to the government said on Wednesday
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/china/11959421/China-not-afraid-to-fight-war-with-US-after-South-China-Sea-move.html
China is setting itself up to be repeatedly provoked in the disputed waters—it might even be counting on it.
All any nation needs to go to war is a good provocation, and China is no exception. With its sweeping territorial claims, island-building, militarization, patriotic fervor, and prickly...

To acquire the sea’s strategic advantage, though, China first needs to establish control over the waterway. That needs to be done step by step. The process might go something like this:
1.Make the sea claim.
2.Create outposts in the sea, and work toward turning them into military bases. At this stage, you might want to deny the military bit.
3.Express outrage if anyone goes near those outposts. Over time, establish a pattern of being repeatedly provoked, despite your patient warnings. Your outposts aren’t...
