What the fuck are you going to do with a 7-ton?
>>30571644
congratulations and welcome to the world of bloatedsurplusprices.com
>>30571674
It is an M923A2 5-ton. The truck itself weights 10.5 tons, but has a 5-ton hauling capacity.
>>30571668
Give me a couple minutes and I'll go out and take one.
>>30571644
All I have is an F-550 flatbed.
>>30571644
I want one of those
Just got my threaded barrel back for my 243 going to sight it in tonight.

Good luck affording tires.
>>30571644
That thing must be like owning a great white shark.
Fucking awesome......but why would you unless you own a business that would utilize it?
>>30571736
That's fucking awesome man. I heard the brakes on those things give out easy though. Safe operating bro
DDI AK74. Fun as hell to shoot.

Allison automatic?
>>30572032
The brakes are really very good on this truck. It doesn't take much pressure to get it to stop quickly.
>>30572015
>bill of needs, yada yada
The point is: I can, so I did. And now I will enjoy driving this truck wherever I want!
>>30571961
Tell me about it. Buying a whole new set of tires would cost 1/3 of the truck.
>>30572097
It isnt october yet.
>>30572114
Allison Automatic. 5 speed, with hi-lo transfer case.
>>30572147
How much did you pay for the truck? How slow is its max speed and how's the MPG?
Is it one of those multi-fuel engines that can burn literally anything that's combustible?
>>30571644
>Pic related, just got it yesterday.
GtFO really?
Can we take a ride?
>>30572169
~$8k with some extra goodies and a full tank of gas, it has a max speed of 63mph, and the gas mileage is poor, somewhere between 5-10mpg.
This is not a multifuel engine, it is a 8.3L Cummins diesel.
>>30572157
>Outing yourself as a Britbong no-funs fag
>>30571961
I paid 5 grand for a set of tires once
>>30571644
I've been looking at these. So fucking cheap. How does it runs? What have you got in the way of tools to work on it? What's the cost to fill?
>>30572097
Isn't the engine som POS detroit diesel?
>>30571818
>Dickies
Mah nigga
>>30572248
It runs great. Starts up instantly, everything works as it should. The only downside is that the a tire, or multiple tires, are out of balance, which can make for quite the ride at certain speeds. Seems to be a common problem for these trucks, but nothing a new set of tires or shaving/buffing the current set wouldn't fix.
>>30572248
Tools wise, I currently only have the ability to fix small things, since I only have "car-sized" sockets, wrenches, etc. Nothing for heavy lifting. Fuel wise, it holds 81 gallons of diesel, and fuel is cheap around here, so at $1.99/gal it is around $160 for a full tank.
>>30571644
>no PTO winch
You dun goofed but it looks clean as hell. Mad jelly, often wish I had one.
>>30572147
Not saying you should be disallowed to, just asking why you would?
Got any shit that needs a hauling?
>>30571644
Uh. I want one.
Can I ask how much and where?
>>30572650
Not op but, gravel, topsoil, trees, plants, firewood, plywood, 2x4, shingles, landscaping blocks, project cars, ammo group buy, scrapping when prices are right. More truck is always better.
>>30572650
Not OP but:
>why
>why
>why
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED
>>30572650
Because I can, mostly. I don't have anything that I need to haul until a year from now. This was a nice truck at a nice price, and it can drive through anything. I don't like to ask why, I like to ask, why not?
>>30572258
>>30571818
Dem babby ribs
>>30572650
Op probably does well financially and yolo'd with this purchase. Hell id buy one if I made a lot of money.
Got the gun last Saturday, got this stuff for it yesterday.
>>30572257
No those are Humvees
They came with either a 6.2L or 6.5L GM built diesel designed by Detroit.
They're gutless, if you maintain it and only use it as a commuter it will last. If you tow/haul or rag it out it won't last.
>>30573454
how much did you spend?
>>30573454
I can sometimes load it with six if the shells are a Tad bit shorter.
Are you in GA?
I literally saw one just like this earlier today
>>30573454
With lug, shield, shotgun and mayonet, about 650. Well worth it, all brand new. The heatsheild and lug together were $100 and the bayonet was $95.
>>30572232

Nice. I got pic a bit more than a month ago and was looking at a couple of Ferret armored cars yesterday.
>>30573693
Here's the Ferrets, I want one so bad.
>>30573693
What size tire does that thing have?
>>30573735
395/85r20's. The crates in the back of truck are a spare set.
>>30571644

>>30574643
That's cool
SBR or pistol?
>>30573549
Obviously not.
>>30574688
none yet
still has a deactivated bolt & barrel
probably re-activate it as a "pistol", or SBR in US terminology
>>30571644
There's a 95 humvee for sale at a local used car dealership for 35,000.
>>30574728
>probably re-activate it as a "pistol", or SBR in US terminology
If it's a pistol with a stock, it's a short-barreled rifle. If it doesn't have a stock, it's a pistol.
What are laws on "re-activating" weapons like this? Also what country?
>>30572245
How come?
>>30574750
central europe
Bought a sight off opticsplanet, was suppose to come to 50$ off for the sale going on. Got to the cart and it was 100$ off. not quite 50% off but it was pretty close otherwise the optic would of costed more than the weapon. I'm still stoked about it.
nothing special, but just picked this up last wednesday
>>30574750
Not that guy but yes Yuros make the distinction via caliber not barrel lenght unless modified to an extent where authorities have to be informed. To my knowlege (in Germany for this example) its primarily about modification downwards though so a rifle caliber revolver would be classified as a handgun while a pistol caliber carbine is still a pistol no matter how long the barrel.
Reactivation means relicensing after parts replacement as deactivation is aimed at making it impossible to safely reactivate. Since the last EU reform that changed as they are now planning to treat everything that can be converted into a firearm as such. Yes thats insanely vague and would also include nails and copper pipes but how else are we supposed to crack down on those evil blank guns.
>>30572064
i like your wood anon
>>30573713
I've always wanted a Ferret.... Get that fucker street legal and just drive it around town.
>>30575248

>>30574580
I got a 10/22 this weekend for $250 in WA. My first ever gun, except a WWI ruby pistol from my great grandfather that I've never fired.
>>30572198
>8.3L Cummins
Stamp says '44. Did I do good /k/? I don't really know shit but I got it at the antique arms show and really like it.
>>30579380

>such is life
>>30579431
Ok. There's no marking on the top because some twat ground it off. The seller said it would have been a Yugoslavian stamp after being captured and repurposed by partisans but he was probably just trying to make my dick hard.
>>30579431
>>30579607
And the other side
>>30579607
How much did you pay?
Nevertheless good buy anon
>>30579631
NZ$620 and another $40 for 100 rounds. Don't bother comparing to overseas prices. Everything is expensive here and that goes double for guns.
>>30579659
40 for 100 rounds is fking amazing
still better than the german prices (1000$ for good condition)
in 2-3 years ill get mine when i start making more cash
>>30579725
Yeah there are some guys who got a hold of Yugo surplus. Start putting away money now or you'll just end up with lifestyle inflation eating it all up.
>>30574626
Iac 97, reproduction of the 1897

Muh dik
picked up a 7.62x54r Vepr w/ a 23" barrel and the thread protectors removed the other day
>>30571644
Sweet. I was looking at one but I'm too giant to fit in it.
>>30579490
What?
>>30574625
Should have also purchased a MAC 10 to trigger spergs.
>>30577683
It means they suck at acceleration and or speed.
PA Advanced Micro Dot
Magpul sling
PSA Classic LPK with EPT
520 rds PMC bronze 223
Waiting for an upper to come back into stock so I can take my current upper off my AR and build a 2nd for my parents.
>>30571818
The adapter that goes to 243 to 308 at the end fuckin came off in the suppresor
>>30583176
are there Mac 10 bags out there?
Holy fuck, the spare tire is so big it has a fucking CRANE above it to (I assume) lift it off of the truck.
>>30583406
Considering each wheel weighs around 500 pounds, yeah, it needs it.
>>30578596
Fucking seriously. I've been scouring every site for something that isn't shit for weeks.

>>30583189
Can't you attach some superchargers to it?
Just got this at a lgs.
Only 150. Not bad I don't think
>>30584095
12g breech loader.
Tag said it was made in 1879
Just got these two Kriss Vector 30rd magazines for my Glock 21. I'm not sure if they're good, but they have to be better than that cheap 27rd Korean one in the middle. Junk. Don't buy.
I suppose this is as good a thread as any to ask
I'm in a bit of a pickle here /k/. I really want a USP45. I REALLY REALLY want a USP45. my finances haven't been looking as good as I want them to, I'm still in a good place, but I'm still below a place I want to be by a few hundos. I have three paychecks this month, meaning I have about $1300 or so extra for the month after bills, but I've been spending a lot on fast food and such lately since I've been visiting the hospital a lot.
enough of the background. I wanted to get a USP45 from Sportsman's Guide for 800. I still have 2 paychecks left so I could theoretically afford it. however, this is not a perfect world, and I may end up continuing my trending purchases, on top of that, I need to buy ammo as I'm on my last boxes. my LGS has a $1000 USP45T, and $600 USP45C, and they accept layaway. should I put either of these on layaway, get my bills out of the way, and pay it off after, or wait until the end of the month when I have all my finances figured out, and just go with the normal USP?
tl;dr
>wanna USP45
>$800 sportsman's guide
>not broke, but not preferably wealthy
>2 more paychecks
>more bills/spending including ammo for semiweekly range trip
>can maybe afford USP at end of month after I figure shit out
>or I can put $1000 USP45T or $600 USP45C on layaway at LGS and make more payments later
>or I can save my money (yeah right) like a responsible adult
what do?
>>30584309
Just get an FNX45 they're better.
>>30583315
No, buy mac 10 and put it in Uzi bag.
>>30584309
I personally don't like the USP tactical, the huge TACTICAL engraving on the slide is cringeworthy and the sights aren't great, the standard is fine, if you want to put a can on it later then you can buy a threaded barrel and better suppressor height sights for cheaper than the difference. Also I wouldnt put anything on layaway. They are still making USPs so there's no rush.
The compact is really nice, but unless you plan on concealing it I'd stick with the standard.
>>30584587
thanks m8. my main concern with the compact was the recoil. I'm no sissy, but I want a smoothshooting .45. rented a 1911 and that was near orgasmic, can only imagine how nice the USP will feel. think I'll wait for thr end of the month and get the normal one.
>>30584145
I warned you.
Or someone on here thinking about buying Korean magazines.
Also, ETS Glock magazines are shit too, do not buy.
Magpul Glock magazines are good shit though.
