I mean, sure the m14 isn't the best battle rifle, or even that good of a rifle. It is less reliable and heavier than the competition. But it's the rifle anon's got, and it's the one he likes shooting, and it's the one he (hopefully) shoots well with. We get tangled up in optimizing our shit alot, but there's a certain point were all the shit works, just use which ever one you have, don't worry about the competition

May as well ask here, since the other thread never gave me an answer. On my bug out bag, should i include a gas mask? I have a m40 promask with a couple of spare canisters. Hell, i have an entire set of jlist sealed, could include it for NBC protection/emergancy cold/wet weather gear

Can we talk about ammo/mag counts? I've always been really self conscious about this guys...
210 rounds being the standard combat load, on which side of that do you fall? And how far?
>>29795812
You're gonna have to explain what's up with the plumbing...
>>29796839
I've never been in the military, so take what I say as you will. Others have a better idea than I do.
That being said, I currently carry 4+1, once I get a belt it will be 6+1, 4 on my rig, 2 on belt
>>29796839
For bumming around, 2+1
When I'm doing military shit, 6+1

In the past 3 weeks I've started a new job, put my house on the market, and started moving into a new one. Still managed to maintain weekly range trips...

Is the AK giant or the guy short? I could swear the AK looks 'too big'.
>>29797258
>>29797231
Seriously you have no idea how hard it was to take this photo. I had the rifle slung over one arm, holding nod with one hand and phone with the other, lining all this shit up and taking the photo
[spoiler] And it looks like shit [/spoiler]
>>29797306
AK is closer towards mirror which makes it look larger.
Fag also has the wrong grip on his ak and a c93 so he is probably a manlet
>>29797191
logical. we're on the same page
>>29796890
belt plan sounds good - is 4 the maximum capacity for your chest rig?
I've been toying with magpul's 40 rounders in my own rig. Seems like they could really change the round count dynamic.
If you really want to go down the rabbit hole, we could also discuss ammo for your sidearm...
I run 5+1 on my rig for my rifle, then 3+1 for my pistol on my belt. Spare rounds, and a few spare mags incase i screw one or two up in my bag. Course running .308 and .45 weight plays a big part
>>29796324
>>29796214
bro why is your handguard so long
that's precious grams you could be spending on sticks of tactical chewing gum
>>29797213
I go to the range every few weeks, I put my camo on every few months exclusively for /k/ meets.
>>29797330
There's such thing as a wrong grip?
>>29796164

Interesting. So are those 20 or 30 round battle rifle mags? How practical do you think it is to carry spare rounds?
Here's where shit gets trippy: anybody run more than 1 sidearm? I vaguely recall the ballistic shields responding to the paris attacks having multiple handguns...

Picked up a new rifle as a dedicated one for the waifu. The rifle and pistol are just a start, but I've got enough squirreled away gear that I think shortly she'll have a kit she likes.

>>29797528
Yeah, 4 is the max. I tried 40's but they weren't comfortable in the rig or my gun. I plan on getting two taco pistol mag pouches for my belt so I'll have 2+1 for that, don't see the need for more than that as I "shouldn't" have to use it.
>>29797746
It' actually really light, also it looks cool
>>29799398
I do, I hate the glock triggers and I love my P226
>>29799558
How long is the 226 trigger pull in comparison to a Glock? I've seen videos and they seem pretty lengthy.
>>29799651
The DA is longer, but the SA is very short and feels amazing to shoot. Especially with the Short Reset Trigger. The 226 honestly has the best trigger out of any pistol I've fired.
>>29799664
I've tried a CZ before, some kind of competition gun, and the trigger pull was disgustingly long holy shit. Only other triggers I use have been Glock and 1911 ones. Otherwise I'm thinking maybe a used Beretta 92fs.
this is semi related question, I started a blue collarish job that involves a lot of outdoor working, because of this I'm beginning to realize how awesome cargo pants are for their durability, flexibility, breathability in heat, dozens of pockets etc. So I was wondering if anyone had recommendations on quality cargo pants. maybe something thats kinda /fa/ and tapers at the bottom (not all wide legged and boot cut like most work pants)
>>29799716
All DA/SA guns will have longer trigger pulls than a 1911 or a striker gun. its the name of the game.
>>29797213
Or lifting for that matter.
>>29799716
My advice is to go to a range that offers a bunch of different rentals and try them all out
>>29799404
Camo mixing should never be encouraged but that czech camo works fine with woodland. The kryptek face mask is pure shit though.
How much ammo is a good amount for a bolt-action rifle?
50 rounds? 70?
>>29799803
depends on the caliber
>>29799821

>>29799825
are you in US or Canada
>>29799827
No.

>>29799831
well then I have no idea, its 50-70 cpr here in the states.
>>29799803
>how much ammo is a good amount [in general]
If you have to ask that question, you don't have enough yet.
>>29799845
Why would it change depending on where you live?
Are Americans and Canadians really good at absorbing bullets or something?
>>29799850
Unfortunately I only have legs and can't carry my ammo around in a container ship.
>>29799857
As a Canadian, I can confirm I carry a minimum of 300 round of 5.56 inside my body at any given time.
>>29799857
In canada 303 is easier to find and cheaper
>>29799866
kek.
>>29799731
>>29799786
That's also why I'm having a hard time trying to decide if I want a Geissele trigger. I've only ever used single-stage triggers except for my SKS which is basically 6 stages considering all the grit in it.
>>29799857
hes saying get a better gun than a .303 because that shits expensive.
still WW2 loadouts seemed to be around 60 rounds.
>>29799866
>carrying 60 magazines.
>>29799883
>find and cheaper
not anymore.
>>29799883
You can find 7.62x39, and to a lesser extent 7.62x54r, easier than you'll find .303 in Canada. Even the fuddiest of gun stores here carry 7.62x39 surplus because everybody and their grandmother owns and SKS.

>>29799887
.303's pretty available here in Aus, but anything that I go with is going to be expensive.
It's honestly one of the more common cartridges - right up there with .308 and .30-06.
It looks like my options are bandoliers (which look annoying as hell) that carry 50rd, ammo belts like pic related which carry 100rd or maybe some kind of vest.
I'm basically just trying to find something which I can put on quickly that can hold some ammo, water, a first aid kit and maybe an extra pouch for stuff like toilet paper, maps, food etc for a day.
I'll probably go with the ammo belt. It looks like you can attach haversacks and stuff to them fairly easily.
>>29799887
>>29799898
really? thats a damn shame, last time I was up there it was pretty easy to find, but that was years ago.
>>29799371
Coming from a person that has been in very intense tactical and combat situations, I cannot possibly visualize what in gods name you would be thinking trying to add all of that SHIT on that perfectly good firearm. First and foremost you are doing nothing but adding on unnecessary weight which will slow you down. I don't know if you have ever even been underneath a vehicle but you would have very limited room and this weapon has entirely too much junk hanging off of it in every direction for you to ever fit in underneath a vehicle unless that vehicle is a 4x4 truck that's lifted so high that it is a mall crawler and looks just as ridiculous as your over accessorized once upon a time nicely made weapon. Someone who probably sat around watching YouTube videos of what kind of stupid accessories he could keep adding onto his AR-15 just in case he was in some tactical situation. Very simply I think this gun is an absolute waste of money and beyond that a waste of time. Its not practical, it has way too many things for you to actually put into effect in a real life situation, and this honestly makes me think that someone should have done a more extensive background check before selling you that firearm. This isn't the walking dead and we're not walking into some imaginary zombie apocalypse, however if that does happen anytime soon, the first place I will be headed is to your house in order to take you down and tear your weapon apart in order to equip 3 or 4 of my closest friends with some kick ass accessories since you seem to have enough on there to go around. Then it should be pretty easy to survive the worst parts of that situation and repopulate the earth without fear of contamination by your seed of absolute ignorance. Thank you for your time and I hope your weapon falls apart as quickly as possible. Please don't buy any more guns.

>>29805965

>>29806000
They impossible to get into without taking off your whole plate carrier, which is a chore. Like he said, unless you have somebody else to grab the stuff out of it, it's not a great idea. Plenty of tiny strapped day packs are out there.
>>29806000
unless you're working in a team that constantly stacks up on things so that your teammates can reach and grab your shit no, no its not since you'll have to take the whole carrier off to reach the internals.

>complaining about a guy using his rifle

>>29806001
It is a decently popular aesthetic choice. Why do you care what his rifle looks like?
>>29805916
The paint on the rifle is NOT meant to look good. I'm not sure why you're thinking that maintaining a parade inspection appearance in camouflage is a good thing.
Even in the Marines, it was common knowledge to the most boot grunt that for field use, dirty cammies blend better than clean cammies. Dirty cammies that are also a little ripped up are even better for blending, provided the cargo pockets haven't blown out and it doesn't create a catching hazard.
It's camo paint dude you are actually being a little silly about it.
>>29806019
>>29806027
That's good to know. I've been thnking about the idea of having a chest rig that directly links onto a backpack, but if it is such an issue then I won't go with it.

How do you like that vx-r?
Does it hit good from less than 50 to more than 200 yds?
I've been thinking of getting one for a 3gun scope.
>>29806539
well its a Mark 6, but I really liked it, even sitting on my carbine it worked out to 600 meters hitting head sized gongs with the wind marks.
>>29806553
I should have bought that scope when you had it up on the EE so I could get your address and send you pizzas :^)
>>29806531
I like it, thanks for the link.
Can't find it for sale anywhere though.

Accomodating of black long and ribbed....the pink kind with hair around it?

I'd defend Berlin with you.
>>29806116
I'll start sporting more UCP to piss you spergs off. Besides I'm not worried about matching shit for airsoft.

They don't offer the model that has button/snap, and accommodates a light yet ; . ;
>>29806836
Email them, I'm sure they'll make whatever config you need.

people knew where I worked and no one came by or mentioned anything.
Very short hike today. I underestimated how small 55 acres is, and it ended up not raining when i was out there. I like my gear and how it's setup. The pack has thin straps that ride outside the plate carrier. I'll take my rucksack out next time to see how that works with the plate carrier, see if the straps clash more.
Also, Eddie Bauer clothing. I have a bit of their clothing and I generally like it. Pic related are some comfy as fuck pants and one of their button ups. Does anyone else like them
>>29804065
No, still airshit with poor material and shit stitching. The pouches can be a decent bridge to better gear but you are better off saving up for a suspension over a pontoon.

kek, thanks
>>29805791
You do you, f-a-m. If a rifle isn't a rare historical piece, in my mind its a beater.
>>29805838
A mix of different characteristics and what I had laying around at the time. The hocket tape is nice and grippy, but not very load bearing. The e-tape stretches nice to get tight on irregular shapes. The 500mph tape is just plain tough and sturdy.
I'm used to turning to DIY as much as possible before spending cash on a gizmo.
>>29807035
I've got an old solid color Hydrastorm Mule and I like it. Mostly I also carry either a nalgene bottle or a 1qt (have both Blackhawk and GI) around as well.
>>29807337
tfw we are rail buddies.
>>29807405
your rifle is aesthetic
>>29807337
What is the cleaning rod you have there and what do you have to space those magazines?
>>29807427
dont tape mags, mag couplers exist.
>>29807445
Not my rifle I was just wondering what he used
>>29807455
looks like tape and crushed dreams
>>29807405
What did you use to color the selector? Crayons?
>>29807427
>What is the cleaning rod you have there
Just a GI rod right out of the green issued kit. It's there more to help with malfunctions and stuck cases than for actual cleaning.
>what do you have to space those magazines?
Currently using a d-ring because it was what happened to be laying around that was the right size.
>>29807464
most people use nail polish or model paint
>>29807477
i kinda want to buy a mapul d60. the idea is that it'd be my "starter" after taking contact, to maximize volume of fire in the beginning of the fight.
>>29807445
tape is cheaper and you only need to tape two mags for your first 60 rounds. you don't carry jungle taped mags in your pouches.
>>29807426
thanks bbi, i approve of your accessories and i was tempted to get that stock.
>>29807464
it came like that. it was 50 dollars cheaper to buy the color filled version at the shop and i'm going to paint the rifle when it gets all scratched up anyway.
>>29807505
if i was in a free state i would buy d60s/surefire 60s and get one of those binary triggers and build an auto riflemen loadout.
>>29807505
It looks cool, and I trust magpul as much as anybody to make a decent drum. I just did the tape thing because it was instant and $0 vs. $130.
>>29807508
this stock is pretty comfy
>tape is cheaper
but it will cost you your pride.
>>29807556
>but it will cost you your pride.
if your only source of pride is spending money on shit you don't need then you got some problems.
>>29807548
it also works and has worked for decades. that shit is still being done in combat today.
>>29807548
How heavy would you go in regards to taping mags? I was thinking that taping two 40 rd pmags would probably start getting a bit heavy to swing around.
>>29807548
>>29807599
this is the big issue. i might jungle tape 2 pmags for my starter instead like you did.
>>29807556
>pride
how? it looks cool, is functional, and low cost.
>>29807585
>>29807644
or you could do things properly instead of jerry rigging them
>spend hundreds on armor, guns, ammo
>cant afford a mag coupler
ok.
>>29807672
>spending money on easily made shit instead of more ammo
>>29807672
except that tape is doing it properly. it functions literally exactly the same. the benefits of the polymer couplers or ready mags does not out way the cost, weight savings,easy of maintenance, easy or replicating/replacing of gorilla tape.
>>29807632
2x30 is as heavy as I'd go, IMO. It's already pretty decent weight. If you're going to use a 40 round magazine, I'd just keep it single.
>>29807644
If you do it remember to go overkill on the tape and use a spacer that won't crumple with moisture (ie- don't use cardboard).
>>29807672
So, like I said to the anon, you do you. I like to DIY stuff. I try to fix things using the minimum amount of tools necessary. I like to think it keeps me in a mentality of problem solving rather than throwing money at things. I ain't saying taping mags together is rocket science, but I approached like I do other things, with the idea of doing more with less.
No disrespect to the expensive factory stuff, of course.
>>29807672
i just don't see the logic in saying that tape is inferior. the polymer shit is neat but its the same fucking thing as taping it. the only difference that people with safe queen guns get upset because it doesn't fit with their aesthetic
>>29807689
>>29807712
I cant follow the logic of becoming a gear queer then taping mags, its not vietnam anymore
>muh ammo money argument
theres a whole slew of shit youd not buy for the sake of ammo money if every purchase was made with ammo budget in mind.
>>29807765
im just not a huge fan of coupling mags at all, added weight and all.

>they did it in the 1970s so its good enough for today
>residue on mags
>capable of degrading over time, not true with a dedicated coupler
>cant go to single mags on the fly
tape works but saying its just as good is silly
>>29807831
>can't go to single mags on the fly
just cut the tape?
>>29807831
>they did it in the 1970s so its good enough for today
we are still using the same rifle they did then too
>residue on mags
oh no icky my gun isn't spotless
>capable of degrading over time, not true with a dedicated coupler
>polymer can't degrade or break
>cant go to single mags on the fly
remove single mag from vest, insert into gun.
you are fucking retarded. the point of jungle taping a mag is so when you are patrolling and you take contact you dump that shit and have a quick reload. then you ditch the whole fucking thing and start using your primary reload mags. mags are disposable
What plate carriers is this
>>29807916
idk it must be some new experimental camo pattern tho.
>>29807831
>>29807907
>get into firefight
>fire your 60 rounds out of your coupled mags with their wizbang coupler and toss the whole thing on the ground because you are about to be shot in the face if you don't reload.
>leave it there because you have other shit to worry about
oh look you just wasted $150 and it had absolutely no important function. you could have done the same fucking thing with tape and a rock.
