>>28596205

But anon, that's true from a certain point of view.

For a recreational handgun that sees occasional use, a revolver has no mags, ammo issues etc and you can usually fire a huge variety of loads from one gun. Something has to break for it to start fucking up.

I was planning on going to my LGS tomorrow and ordering a Glock 20 because I want a 10mm for my collection. Two questions before I go.

> Are the Gen 3 and Gen 4 Glocks basically the same in quality now or should I stick with the Gen 3

> Are there any other 10mm (not 1911) that I should consider other than the Glock 20 int he same price range?

Why would you get a Gen 3 instead of a Gen 4 in the first place, assuming that the prices of the two are the same

there's a couple P220 variants in 10mm out now.

cons are it's more expensive than glock and doesn't hold as many rounds per mag

pros are steel frame makes for a better balance and softer recoil,
trigger is available in SAO or DA/SA and imo much better than glock,
grip is much more comfortable
looks much more stylish
it's very accurate too

your choice really, just wanted to make sure you knew about it since they've been out for less than a year and still to my knowledge aren't listed on sig sauer's main site

I have a gen3 g20 sf and have a shot a gen4, I didn't notice much of a difference.

g20 is the best 10mm on the market, don't bother with anything else.

What are some /k/ approved games. What pops into my mind are red orchestra 2, insurgency, and company of heroes 2.

>Too much.

Seriously though, they're fucking worthless. There really is no logical reason to take a belt fed semi auto over a magazine fed semi auto, unless you're interested in the history or pure looks of the weapon.

But hey, if someone wants to buy it, who the fuck am I to speak on their behalf? It's their money, their reasoning. They can do whatever the fuck they want to.

The people buying them aren't interested in your logic. It's a collector's piece and strictly marketed as such.

We all know you can fire a gun in space, but would a gas operated self loader like an AR or AK cycle in a vacuum?

Wouldn't that mean revolvers and pump/lever actions are the best guns for spess?

Yes. The gas is provided by the cartrige; the propellant.

They would cycle like anything else.

Yes. You may need lighter springs, but its still an explosion driving the gas rod.

https://behindthenewsisrael.wordpress.com/2016/01/17/sweden-training-refugees-on-how-to-be-snipers/

The Swedish state is funding a “sniper” training course for recently-arrived “refugees” as part of their “integration program”—despite the ever-growing refugee-terrorist attacks across Europe.

The Allehanda informs its readers that the “sniping course” began on a “small scale in the Fall,” but then for reasons which are obvious, but which the Swedish newspaper ignores, “interest exploded” among the nonwhite invaders to take the course.

When the Allehanda visited the shooting range, “more than 50 immigrant youths were on the course,” honing their shooting skills.

Even more incredibly, the sniping course is being paid for by Sweden’s state-funded Migration Agency as an “integration” program into Swedish society.

“Young people from all over the world—Syria, Afghanistan, Africa, [and] South America” are taking sniping lessons, the Allehanda said, and some of them are “interested and very talented,” the paper quoted course supervisor Birgit Höglin as saying.

Thoughts?

Just a friendly reminder that the shot that sparked a war that killed over 38 million was less than 5 meters.

This isn’t about gun ownership, but about a very specific kind of training in a very specific kind of skill. One that can be deadly. And one that makes zero sense to teach to refugees who are committing crimes at an alarming rate.

For the life of me, I just can’t understand the logic. “Say, let’s take this high-risk pool of people and make them more dangerous than they were when they entered the country.”

What's the point of a ship that's too "valuable" to actually put into combat?

So, I know there is a strong hate for .40....but I'm here to ask why exactly? I shot my cousin's glock 27 today and loved it. I was hitting my target consistently and didn't have the snappy recoil problem that everyone seems to bring up. I also like that the round is physically bigger compared to 9mm - not that it matters. I also hear about the "wear on the gun" argument. On certain handguns you can see that the .40 is beefier making the wear relative. It's also abundant during panic times. Ok, so I'm sacrificing a round or two, but with proper shot placement, it shouldn't matter. Aside from the "shoot what is best for you" response, I just don't see why the level of hate is so high?

Only from little shits. .40 is just more expensive and nubs should start with the 9mm. That's all.

I have a Glock 27, it's on the right, I never got the snappy thing either. Now when someone says it I just immediately think nogunz. Also where I live you can always get ammo for it.
>and it does kill moose.
>>
>>28589365
Maybe you just haven't shot a lot of guns. I have a 27 myself with an extender similar to hte one on the gun on the left. With the 3rd finger on the grip, it's a pleasure to shoot but it's too slippery otherwise.

The snappy thing refers to the high pressure impulse. It's more of a "snap" in feeling as compared to something like a .45 which feels more like a slower push or torque. It's just different feeling. Compared to 9mm recoil of the .40 is just more in general, it's not that it's bad but for a nub, it's better to learn on a 9mm because not only the cheaper ammo but the easier to handle gun will help them to not develop bad habits such as recoil anticipation or flinching.
9mm is just as effective in most situations too.
I love my Glock 27, very accurate, very good sizes for CC, very reliable, good gun.
Calling someone noguns because they are better able to differentiate or articulate the nuances of how it feels to shoot different calibers makes me think you are noguns.

Plenty of people improve their depression by doing fun things.

Now go shoot your gun and remember, if you change your mind about the suicide thing, please play the "botched auto erotic asphyxiation" game instead, it leaves less of a mess for the cleanup boys, isn't going to make you a hamburger face if you fuck it up, and lets your mother pretend she raised a pervert instead of someone who didn't think he was loved.
>>
>>28589103
Good man that's great, let shooting and guns become your hobby. Hobbies are great for working through depression. I mean yeah my life can still suck sometime, but I haven't been full-on suicidal since I've been a gun owner. You'll notice a big improvement in your happiness after a while.

>>28589217
This as well. Plus if you do end up removing yourself (please don't) do it clean and without a gun. Not only do the guys that clean you up have less to do, you won't add to the gun related suicide statistics that are lumped into all gun crime statistics thus fucking over other gun owners.

Have fun bro, enjoy being happy.

>>28589298
This too, but if you do decide to an hero, climb to the top of a 3 or 4 story building, anchor some razor wire to something solid, cut enough length to hang over the side of the building half way down, take the end and loop it around your neck a few times, then superglue your hands to the sides of your head, take a running start and leap off the side of the building.

When they find your body it will look like you 'sperged out and tore your own head off with your bear hands.

Based on the current arsenal you have at home, would you be able to survive 24 hours in Jurassic Park right after it all went to shit?
