I live in a cucked country where owning pic related is impossible, however, through word of mouth I heard people have been buying airsoft guns and scrapping the internals and replacing them with ruger 10/22 internals essentially making the 10/22 into whatever gun they want. Now my question is: is this safe? I know plinkers aren't that powerful but I had an airsoft gun in highschool and they didn't feel very solid. After a little research I found out that they make pic related in airsoft but with a full metal body, should I do it? What precautions should I take? Is there parts of the gun I should reinforce in the garage some how? Thanks.

That sounds like the kind of thing a noguns would say to other noguns to seem hasguns. If anything I'd say that people are just finding shells that simply fit over a standard 10/22, I've heard of people doing something similar with toy guns & pocket pistols.
I'm pretty sure that someone makes a .22LR MP5 copy, you may as well get that instead of dicking around with toys.
>>30112640
>That sounds like the kind of thing a noguns would say to other noguns to seem hasguns.
I own an sks. But that's besides the point.
Nobody makes 22lr clones of that where i live which is the whole reason I made this thread.
Nogunz here, newly living in a place that allows firearms. I've fired a bunch of other people's guns so I know what I like, and I'm ready to start buying my own. Which of these should I get first?
>.308 bolt action rifle
>semi-auto shotgun
>.357mag/.38spec revolver
>>30112710
Well then you're probably SOL.
>>30112756

Should I buy an sks and Smith and Wesson m&p15-22 or a cheap ar for about the same price?
>>30113152
2 is always better than 1
>>30113152
For just having fun at the range? The SKS and 15-22. Ammo will be like half that of an AR-15.
>>30112710
Those are mostly shit guns anyway, just generic cheapo .22s with Nerf-like plastic clamshells that make them look like a good gun.
Why is 8mm Mauser so expensive?
>>30113308
So back to the original question at hand, how should I go about buying an all metal airsoft gun and filling it up with a 22? Is it gonna explode in my face? I just have no idea how to go about it.

Any Norwegians here? I want to start shooting as a hobby but I am not interested in doing it for competition. Is it possible to own handguns without doing competition shooting with them?
I just got into shooting recently (inb4 lol noguns) and I got a target for plinking with a Marlin Mod 60. The problem is that when I aim down the scope, I can't even hold the sights on the target. I'm sure I'm doing everything wrong because I have nobody to teach me so can I get a rundown on some /k/ approved reading/watching on how to gitgud?
>>30116275
Like it's too heavy or your eyes seem to keep 'switching'? If the latter you might be cross dominant and putting tape over rhe ahooting glases where the eye that is not shooting will help.

It doesn't feel heavy, I can hold the gun all day but I just don't seem to be able to hold it steady. It's probably just my breathing and stance being all wrong.
So if I live in a state (Maryland) that has "assault weapons" banned, doesn't provide a definition of "assault weapon" and has a list of banned rifles, am I good to go in acquiring a non "scary"-looking rifle? Current noguns but I'm trying to change that immediately. Just want something with a box mag and I'm afraid of breaking the law. Or am I just better off going to a local gun shop/pawn shop?
If you can pass a 4473 will the ATF approve you for a NFA item (SBR in my case) or is it done on a discretionary basis?
Hey /k/,
I just bought a sig romeo5 red dot about a week ago.
Today I tried turning it on and it just won't.
I was thinking maybe it's the battery that died but I've had several Walmart brand red dots and they haven't killed original batteries yet. So how can this be?
Do higher end red dots kill their batteries faster or should they have even longer lasting run times? I would imagine the latter depending on functions/features.
One week seems way too fast to kill a battery.
Maybe I got a faulty model?
I'm about to go to a store to buy a new battery to see if that fixes the problem but id like to hear what you have to say
>>30119221
Welp the new battery made it work again. This time I bought an energizer instead of a generic battery. Hopefully I get more than a weeks work of fun time

I am here in baltimore m8 we still can get some goodies
ak pistols of almost any type
i just got a zenith mp5 pistol

I shoot pistols left handed, and rifles right handed. With the pistol, my shots always go down and to the right, fairly considerably. With the rifle, it's mirrored and down and to the right.
I've seen lefthanded charts facing both directions and have no clue what the fuck is going on. If I'm shooting down and right lefthanded, and down and left righthanded, what am I doing?
The phrase "jerking or slapping the trigger" makes no sense to me. I try to have a smooth trigger pull.

What they do is that they just essentially put a 10/22 into the airshit body, barrel and action. The airshit body is just a shell and should handle any recoil 22lr throws at it, unless it's made out of paper mache or something.
I personally think it's gay, especially the work arounds that are required for the ejection port, magazine well, and tirgger. Do you you want though

Are you standing?
Stand up straight, push your chest out and your shoulders back (if you lift, think of squaring yourself the way you would for a squat or a bench press). Don't take super deep breaths, breathe slowly, inhale, aquire your target, exhale, and fire. Pull the trigger nice and slow, too.
>>30112559
so i just picked up k98 bayonet and its a little bit rusty along with having a dull blade. Would cleaning it up and sharpening it ruin its historical value are is it stupid for me to not keep it in top condition
>>30112559
If you had parts for a 10/22 why wouldn't you just build a 10/22?
The metal used on an airshit gun is cheap and would be dangerous. Don't even bother converting one, just make a garage gun. It'll be ugly but functional. Honestly you should have a better plan for when the SHTF, like raiding an armory. You can utilize bows, bombs, and group tactics.
pleb here, what makes a pouch tactical or a shirt tactical for that matter? why is everything so tactical?
>>30120070
if you're shooting a pistol low and away from dominant side try a higher grip and less finger on the trigger.

So there's a magazine brand called Hexmag which sell 10-rounders with a riser in them.
If you popped that riser out and put in a 30-round spring would it just work like a regular 30-round magazine?
>I need to know for entirely educational reasons
>>30112559
Still just a .22. Don't waste your time.
>>30128101
Just a buzzword to sell things. It usually includes rails in relation to firearms or molle, zippers or velcro in relation to clothing items.
>>30129127
Yes, this is something that's done all the time in states with mag bans.
It's literally just a roll-pin keeping the mag held at 10 rounds. Get a punch and a hammer, tap that shit out, and you're golden.
![IMG-0228[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/OYcr0K7.jpg "IMG-0228[1].jpg")
>>30129394
Nah, this particular brand doesn't have a roll pin or anything.
It's literally just a riser piece inside the magazine which you can take out.
I've heard some people say you don't even need to replace the spring, but who knows.

How easy/hard is it to find a gunsmith capable of doing some really heavy modifications to a pistol? I have a spare Hi Power that I want to give the "ASP" treatment to, but don't know if just any old gunsmith will be able to give me what I want.

I'm in the market for a new rifle. But I'm torn between a few, and can't make up my mind. right now I am saving up for a Zastava M76, which fits a bunch of my criteria, and a few of the bonus conditions. Problem is, I'm a broke college student, and my budget is smallish, so I need suggestions.
I need something with the following:
Main features:
Can be made into commiefornia legal
Good for long range-ish shooting (DMR range, at least 1MOA-ish on an average day with good ammo, comes with or can be equipped with a scope)
Bonus:
C&R or old
Wood and Metal a e s t h e t i c
Has history in a conflict
Cheap-ish round (my other gat is 8mm Mauser, so I'm willing to go up to that price).
New to funs. What's the deal with striker fired guns? You have to rack the slide before you can get a shot off right? Then if you don't fire the only way to unready it is to empty the gun and dry fire? It seems inconvenient to me.

Does anyone have opinions between the M&P Shield and Ruger LC9s? Was debating picking up the Shield for a while, but might not now due to a recommendation from a local gunsmith who has been seeing problems with them as well as hearing of problems from other friends within the firearms community.
Only thing I don't like is the magazine disconnect, but despite that how would you compare the two?
Alternatively, any other recommendations for a ccw that is subcompact, single-stack, chambered in 9mm, and has a manual thumb safety? Won't budge on the above mentioned criteria.

What about like the P320?
I'm an ausfag with an Adler a110
I'm trying to put a shot saddle on the side which requires me to take the two pins out from the trigger and action.
For the life of me I've never had this much trouble with some fucking pins before. I've taken many of them out of other firearms but with this I've been sitting here banging at it with a hammer and pin punch for half an hour and I just can't get the cunts out.
Has anyone else ever had a similar issue like this? How did you get them out?
What the fuck am I doing wrong?
did the price of .308 go up significantly during the last panic? how about components for reloading .223 and .308? im stocking up beforehand and id like to know where to put my money for the most savings.
Are there any good reproduction PUs on the market, or should I just buy an original? When I get one should I mount it myself or bring it to a gunsmith?
http://www.shoppresleysoutdoors.com/sig-sauer-pro-nitron-40s-w-black/
Is this a good deal? I was wanting an SP2022 for a while, and the price on this is way lower than I've seen elsewhere. My only concern is how much I'm gonna be paying for ammo, and if it would be worth it to pay extra for the 9mm now and save on ammo later.
>>30132440
>>30132453
If you don't know please don't try to answer a question.
There is no way or reason to decock a striker fired handgun. There is no way to COCK one for that matter. That is the point, the trigger pull is the same every time. I guess if it helps you, picture the gun as "cocked" all the time, even when empty. The only thing racking the slide accomplishes in a weapon like this is chambering a round.
So to answer the first anon, all you have to do is drop the mag, and rack the slide to eject the unfired round. No need to dryfire.
To the second anon: lurk moar regarding the differences between DA/SA and striker fired. Hint: one has a hammer, bud.
How often do you have to clean your guns, and how long does it on average take to clean say a pistol or a rifle?
Sorry for being a dumbass, but what's the difference between DGLCS, MLCS and SGLCS? I see the terms being in Eagle Industries' chest rigs. Just wondering if there are any differences and what they mean.
>>30133486
A good habit to develop is to do it right after each range trip.
A proper firearm CAN go a long time without being cleaned, but you don't want to push a gun to it's limits if you're not on a battlefield.
Depends, I usually take my time doing it because to me it's an enjoyable activity. Shouldn't take you longer than 20 minutes though.

Bought a Nugget today for $220, Russian m91/30, was advertised as Finnish M39, decided to pick it up anyway because they have a return policy.
Its clearly Soviet with the hammer and sickle marking, but it is dated 1939.
Serial number on reciever is 6100
Serial number on the bolt is changed from its old number, its 2177 but the "1" is weird shaped
Serial number on magazine floorplate is 6478
Idk about this strelok, should I return it?
So I've been looking for a Glock benchmat because I need something tacky to decorate my garage with.
I noticed they put out two different models, the AD00062 and the AD00073. They have the same dimensions, the same diagrams, and the same model of Glock in said diagram.
What exactly is different? I'm not sure why they would put out the same product in two different model numbers.
>>30140436
Finns used a bunch of captured Russian parts to build their rifles, notably receivers.
Are the sling points holes in the stock, or hanging loops? Is the front sight a hooded post, or does it just have wings going out to the side?

Yes, you should return it.

>>30141943
I'm neither of those things, and I still prefer the proper nomenclature.
To me, calling magazines "clips" feels as unnatural as referring to dolphins and whales as "fish," and there are countless people who genuinely believe that.

Why is the Carcano rifle considered by many to be an atrocious if not objectively the worst bolt rifle to partake in the world war(s?)?
Memes aside please.
>>30142412
Have you got that image in a smaller size? Thanks
>>30142475
Fudds would buy them and shorten the barrel to make them better hunting rifles.
They didn't realize that Carcanos utilized a progressive rifling design, which meant the barrel was ruined if you cut off the last bit. Exacerbating this problem, most every commercial ammunition manufacturer used an undersized bullet for 6.5 Carcano- only milsurp ammo really worked with the original barrel.
Also, the lube available to the Italians in the Eastern theater really was not up to the conditions- very similar to problems the Germans were having with K98s. But really, they were well designed and manufactured rifles.

it's just not that reliable, powerful, smooth, or anything really
it's just kind of all around meh
>>30116275
I saw a 10/10 infographic about keeping the front sight in focus, and using out of focus peripherals to aim. It helped my grouping so much, I'm hitting everything
>>30142575
I'd love to see the infographic you're talking about.
What do heat shields do? Do they make them for many shotguns? What is the difference between a heat shield and barrel shroud?
>>30142942
They protect your fingies from burning as much
heat shields are typically directly on the barrel, whereas a barrel shroud protrudes around it and, obviously, doesn't absorb as much heat from the barrel
also heat shields are typically on shotguns (yes, they're quite common and you could just make it yourself) and older machine guns
whereas a barrel shroud is whats usually on modern AR-15's
>>30112559
What's the point of the Reciprocating Barrel on the GM6 Lynx? Advantages/Disadvantages over a traditional bolt
>>30142942
barrel shroud has a shoulder attachment, heat shield does not
simple
>>30142974
absorbs recoil
advantage, can fire for prolonged periods of time and in sexy new positions
disadvantage, probably doesn't hold zero as well
>>30142974
>pro
very little felt recoil, can use bigger boolits
>cons
heavy as FUCK, really not that useful if you aren't a pussy or just use a big gun toted off the back of your truck or something

>>30112559
I'm currently looking at buying an IO akm247c for $650 (total, post- tax) from my place of work. I'm seeing varying reviews as far as quality towards this rifle... should I avoid it completely? Would it be better if I were to go for the Century WASR-10 for ~$720 (plus 10% off if I buy tomorrow)?
Stupid question here, but what semi-auto pistols don't have a tilting/moving barrel action(ie; Glock or M1911)?
From what I can tell, the Beretta 92FS is one, right?
>>30124613
as long as you're not considering CCWing it, sure
where handguns are concerned, any semiautomatic compact or full size that isn't a piece of shit is a fine first gun
>>30132440
Huh? You have to chamber a round somehow on any gun in order to ready it to fire, and on basically every semiautomatic pistol, that involves racking the slide at some point.
Striker-fired guns are basically always "ready" otherwise. The way you make one unready is by putting the safety on or removing the ammunition.
>>30132479
I've heard nothing but good things about the Shield. Are you sure that they don't make a Shield without a magazine disconnect? My M&P 9c doesn't have one, and it's basically a double stack Shield.

I've got a miniMAC I intend to carry on a shoulder sling a la Reagan's SS detail with the UZI.
If I get a tax stamp and a silencer, could I roll around like an 80s operator without coming afoul of the law? The pistol is short enough that with the silencer, it will still be concealed in my jacket.
What's the best source for gun values? I might finally bid in an auction, and I'd like some reference.
>>30145757

I know if I buy more than one handgun the FFL has to notify the police/ATF. But if I buy five pistols from five different places in one day, do you think the ATF would notice? Whats the cooldown period for buying handguns so I don't get on some watchlist?
Nofuns friend became funs today. Wants me to take him to some family property to shoot. He has no prior experience other than "shot my boys 9" and supposedly owning one at some point.
Has like 2/10 gun knowledge. Do I do it?
Also, what's all this fuss about upcoming gun law changes? Google only displays UCLA stuff

Yes. Teach him the right way, with all the safety rules.
I'm looking for a picture, I'll describe it as best I can:

You can transfer five items on one 4473.
Only pay one background check fee.
And the mandatory background check is the notification. Doesn't matter how many you buy, ever, or all at once.
The only thing that changes is the paperwork. 1-5 items one background check, 6-10 two background checks........
Does the length of the gas tube in an AR have a dramatic effect on the wear and tear in its parts? For instance if I switched from a pistol length gas tube to a rifle length would if have any noticeable impact on anything? Slightly related: are there any major pitfalls of having a pistol length gas tube on a rifle or longer length barrel?

What jack does a Baofeng UV-5R have to connect a headset/what headsets are good? Thinking about picking up a UV-5R soon.
Anyone here bought from:

I want to get a makarov and a Berreta from them but their wording is a little odd at checkout, and makes it sound like they only sell to store owners, not private individuals via FFL transfer.
Looking to purchase my first handgun. Poorfag, so I'd like to get a handgun that's somewhat versatile while remaining cheap. I'm eyeing the CZ83 or some Yugo88 from the sticky, but would like more experienced opinions. Does anyone have any other suggestions or input regarding the guns I've mentioned, or any other guns from the Poorfag wiki page?
>>30150171
Sticky is outdated. Look into a Taurus PT111 Millenium G2. Good gun for $250. Don't listen to the Taurus haters this pistol is as good as a stock Glock. Rumor has it that Glock engineers actually worked with Taurus on this pistol, If you compare them they're remarkably similar. Flawless reliability and it takes Sig 226 mags. Carries as well as a Glock 26, but can be used effectively for nightstand duty when paired with a streamlight tlr-3, and a 20 Sig magazine. Buy it and you won't regret it.
Are bore snake colors standardized not to mix'em up?
>>30150450
>PT111 Millenium G2
that's just cruel, man
>>30150171
if you go with this>>30150450 just make sure you are getting the G2 model. The original PT111 is a different pistol.
>>30150491
Go ahead, try to find a better pistol for the money.
>>30150537
Cheaper, and won't explode or slamfire!
http://www.southernohiogun.com/zastava-m70a-tokarev-9mm.html
>>30150561
>won't explode or slamfire!
That was the first gen PT111. The G2 is a complete redesign that has proven itself to be reliable.
>9mm slavshit
About the same price after FFL transfer fee. Can it mount a flash light, take cheap readily available high cap mags, and conceal as well as a Glock 26?
>>30150600
>That was the first gen PT111. The G2 is a complete redesign that has proven itself to be reliable.
Personally, I'd pay $50 more and get something from a reputable, non-hue company that's known for making functional products.
>>30150561
Are there any no-nos or things to look out for when buying slav guns? There's a link to an 88 on this page for even cheaper.
>>30150637
Those are new production so they should be fine.
Otherwise just get something that isn't rattly or rusty.
If you can scrape up $300, I'd recommend this:
https://www.cdnnsports.com/walther-ppx-m1-9mm.html
>>30150628
And what gun would that be? I'm genuinely curious.
>>30150692
Walther PPS or PPX
any of the used CZ 75Bs on Gunbroker when that reseller blows em out for $300
Makarov
Bersa Thunder
one of those Turk Canik
even a P64
I'm lookin into getting a Galil and I'm not too sure what to look for exactly. I don't know what a decent price is for one or who the best manufacturer would be. Any help would be awesome.
>>30150772
You would be doing me a massive favor to rank these from best to worst.
>>30150888
depends on what you're using it for
For a larger, all around pistol-
PPX
CZ 75
Canik
Smaller guns, good for CC-
PPS
Thunder
Mak
P64
>>30150888
If you're looking for a carry gun, don't even consider the milsurp. They're fun range toys but they're bigger, have lesser capacity,and heavier than modern polymer guns.
