What have you guys bought recently?
Came home with this CZ 455 Synthetic today after my doctor's appointment. I'm just using it as a plinker for now, so I plan on just putting a Bushnell TRS-25 or Vortex Sparc on it for now.
got the galco royal guard holster, and then lunch.
I got a new upper. Now I just have the near unbearably long wait for my LPK and blade to come in.

tell me about this delicious looking bowl
So I'm considring buying either a Karabiner 98k or an Mosin Nagant for my first rifle. I live in Norway. Which gun would you reccommend for a newbie?
>>30536940
buy whichever has better ammo availability
or just get the kar
mosins are only popular cause people are poor and they are cheap.
>>30536940
Isn't 54R extremely common in your area? Can you a finnish example?
Americans probably aren't the best resource for you since we only know our supply situation.
If mauser and 54r aren't too different price wise I'd think a mauser would be a better first rifle. It's a much more solid design.
>>30536940
The Mauser will possibly cost more but is a FAR nicer gun to shoot and handle.
What is the general /k/onsensus on this optic?
>>30536872
I like mine. A big upgrade from the TRS-25.
>>30536872
Chinkshit. Get an aimpoint pro unless you just want to shoot it at a range
>>30536872
About 2/3's of what you get from an Aimpoint for 1/3 the price.
I have one on a few different rifles. My 'go to' rifle wears an Aimpoint, though. 5 year battery life FTW.
If I have 300 rounds to shoot per week, what is the best way to break it down?
>300 once per week
>150 twice per week
>100 three times per week
>75 four times per week
>>30536669
You only need one, applied directly to the head
>>30536669
1 300 times per week
15,600 once a year.
How hard generally is it to put a heat shield on a mossberg 500?
>>30536662
It would be extremely painful
>>30536662
Do you have two hands and socket wrench set?
You're good
>>30536675
is that really it? have you done it before?

/k/'s thoughts on virtual reality as a potential training tool in the future?
I'd wager that it would be viable in a generation or two of VR systems.
>>30536536
I want some of those VR fuck machines.
I wonder when they'll be able to get it to where you can actually feel your waifu's claws sink into your back while you fuck her.
Anyways I think VR will be a great training supliment
>>30536815
Dude, even just porn made for vr is awesome.
That said, the current displays for VR suck.
>>30536815
really all you'd need is an electrical impulse to trigger your nerves in realtime with the fuck-machine
it'd only be incredibly difficult to code, inconvenient at best to set up, and unsatisfactory to use though
First time shooting my Shield and I've had two problems I'd like advice on. The face pin on the guide rod blew off, how much concern should this raise and what can be done? Also, with the seven round mag, the last round can barely fit into the mag and the following round (sixth) wont cycle with a full magazine. This doesn't inspire faith in reliability. Any advice would be appreciated.
I've run about 2 - 2.5k rounds thru my Shield with no issues at all. In regards to the guide rod pin, I'd contact S&W for a new guide rod entirely. As for the magazine, the tension remains the same and the 7th round barely fits. Never heard/experienced any issues with cycling.
Are you saying you run 7+1 and the first round that comes from the magazine is giving you problems?
I run seven rounds with an empty chamber (not seven +1) and the mag will barelyyyy seat in the mag well. I have to seriously muscle the mag in then upon firing it wont cycle to the following round. If I put six rounds, one less than capacity, it works perfectly fine. Also, with the seven round mag, it seems to actually expand the sides of the magazine so that if I want to remove a full mag, gravity wont drop it, I have to physically pull it out with some force. It doesnt do that with an empty mag.
I would send it back to S&W or the retailer for an exchange if you feel uncomfortable.
I personally run 7+1 and although it is very hard to seat the mag at times, it cycles perfectly. With a full magazine, when I press the magazine release, the mag actually flies out with some force. No force has been needed to remove the magazine at any point in time.
Other than the guide rod issue, it seems like your problems stem from the magazine. If I were you I would purchase an additional magazine or two, see if the problem still exists, and reassess. If still having problems, I would contact S&W asap.
Hey /k/, Just got my first rifle. How did I do?
Yugoslavian SKS
>>30536447
Keep you gas system clean and it'll serve you well.
Many people will post here saying you fucked up. You only fucked up if the purchase makes you unhappy. The opinions of internet strangers is worth less than nothing.
I really don't understand why people make threads like this, frankly.
Just bought a Yugo SKS myself. Once I got all the fucking cosmoline off it, I was very satisfied. It's a versatile and reliable rifle, OP. Good pick.
>>30536447
Depends on how much you paid for it. Although you do have the advantage that it won't scare normies as much as an AR.

AR-15, aka the Assault Rifle 15
Hey /k/ you guys really helped me out a few weeks back by giving me some great recommendations for cheap weapons. Unfortunately I called away by business and unable to keep up with the thread before it 404ed, although I remember seeing some great charts and infographs and such.
I won't bore you with all the details, but basically I will have very little money to my name for a while, am completely no-gunz currently, and am very interested in begining to become a gun owner. I'm primarily looking for a handgun, but please give me and other kinds of recommendations...

that infographs fucking worthless
You really should give us more to work with, OP. For what purpose do you want a gun?
If it's for security, consider a sub-compact or a compact. If you're not concerned about that, your options open up. Do you have a specific caliber you're interested in shooting? Consider the prices of ammo.
Think, man, think!
>>30536378
Well I have been lurking here for a few months now, and trying to learn more. I've always been really fascinated by guns. Also /pol/ is my main board, and it just seems like shit is starting to hit the fan, and I think it's time to arm myself.
As I mentioned I have some financial currently, so I probably should go with something that can be somewhat multi-purpose. I'm thinking a gun small enough to easily conceal carry, but also something that's a good starter to learn to shoot on.
I really...

Can modern combat aircraft (besides certain, dedicated ground attack platforms) take this kind of damage and remain in the air?
>also, post fucked-up planes
>>30536198
The B-52. Over 'nam one of them lost a large chunk of its verticle stabilizer and made it back to base. Somthing about boeing planes
why do you make that caveat?
>>30536198
Every Marine a Carbineperson.
Marine has "Ma" and "n" in it, spelling "man".
This needs to be fixed, immediately.
