I want to open carry a DEAGLE just to piss people off. I want everyone to be so fucking enraged when they see my DEAGLE...at the range, at the store, at the neighbor's, in the neighborhood. I want them to SEE my power of the M16. I WANT them to see my accuracy of a sniper rifle. I WANT THEM TO SEE THAT IN ONE HIT AND IT'S ALL OVER YES IT IS. They must know.
I want every person in this world to know:
for every strike, there IS A COUNTER-STRIKE

What is k's opinion?
Saw this in my LGS today. Started shaking at how beautiful it is. I may go back tomorrow and get it, but I wanted to get some feedback first.

How much would a collector be willing to pay for an authentic ruger 1959 super blackhawk in perfect conditions?
>>28422030
I'll give you tree fiddy. that's what I spent on mine.
>>28422030
ehh maybe 1.5-2k depending on how "perfect" the conditions are.
How about this authentic 1763 indian trade rifle? My grandmother gave it to me for Christmas. My grandfather was owed some money and the dude gave him this, he found it in his back yard.
So this keeps popping up on my news feed. If you live around the area you might wanna keep an eye out. Policd are already notified apparently, (I don't live there so idk)
Holy shit dude. Charge your battery You have twitter notificaitons which tells me you're a moron. You also have multiple voicemails. Holy crap you have so many notifications your phone can't fit them all in the top screen.
Also, you posted a screenshot of your phone. Go fuck yourself.
What part of Indiana? New Castle reporting in

It's probably nothing but its still kinda creepy.
Hello /k/, I'm very new to guns and I'd like to know about something that worries me a lot.
How likely is it for my own bullet to bounce off and hit me?
Is it possible?
Like, I'm shooting somewhere and say the bullet hits a piece of metal and it ricochets back into my head, or it makes some crazy angle and it hits me somewhere.
I'm traumatized because of a time my cousin and I were shooting arrows, and one of his arrow hit a concrete wall and broke, the tip was sent flying backwards and it passed like 5 cm away from my head, and it...
Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

As long as you don't set up anything that CAN make a bullet ricochet back at you, it won't.
But there are many stories of it happening.
>>28421941
extremely unlikely to occur, more often than not bullets will penetrate or simply smash into metal objects
As long as you're standing a safe distance away from where you're shooting and not putting the wrong rounds into too hard of steel, you'll be fine. Steel targets are rated out for caliber sizes typically.
If firing into a berm or backstop of earth, make sure to remove any rocks or hard debris. Any outdoor range will already have done this
you have 2.37 femtoseconds to riddle me this:
why don't the armed forces of the world utilize puffy ballistic plating
The aim is to not get hit. Plates over vitals are just for a contingency.
Is that even combat plate?
It looks like its for parade.

>You mirin' bro?
I just found out you are supposed to use both eyes when aiming down sights. Ever since I was a kid, I've always closed one eye. How fucked am I?
The second eye is just for maintaining situational awareness and better depth perception
Eh, not really. You can break yourself out of the habit with training. It honestly doesn't matter much, unless you plan on operating in close quarters.

Jesus, someone send me a /k/ angel to halp me in my time of need.
Okay so I have this wasr 10 and I got magpul furniture for it and I got everything on it except for the damned upper hand gaurd. I know what to do to get dat bish on there but I don't have the right tools. Would appreciate some guidance or tips.
Do you have like big lock jaw pliers and a rag? I took mine off with padded vise jaws and it was pretty damn tight... Good luck...
>>28421619
Use a fuckin adjustable wrench like I do and crank that motherfucker right off.
>>28421619
I don't remember how the hell I got mine off.
Hope that helps.
Is the colt 1911 any good?
I'm looking for a fairly basic model that I can possibly put a match trigger in.
>>28421158
Be sure to have the new sear, hammer, and disconnector properly fitted by a smith if you decide to change it
>>28421158
CMP should be getting some soon, I recommend picking one up
>>28421158
It's a relic. There are a lot of modern guns cheaper and better.
Not saying it isn't a good gun, but there have been some advancements in the last 100 years.
I love the look of the tip-up barrel on this baby. I'd like to get a "full sized" .380 as my next gun and I don't know if I want to try hunting for one of these, or just get a PPK.
Classic .380 thread
>Tip up barrel
Why? Generally curious
Tell me it's not single shot.
>>28421122
The idea was you load the magazine and then tip up the barrel to put a cartridge right in the chamber to get one extra bullet in the gun.
>>28421122
Not single shot. It has all the features of the standard version. With a tip up barrel, you never once have to manually rack the slide.
Help me out /K/omrades. I'm currently building my first AR and the last part I need is a muzzle device. I can't decide between getting a suppressor threaded Spikes Dynacomp (pic Related) in preparation for the possibility of the hearing protection act getting passed and Suppressors being deregulated, or just a standard A2 birdcage. What Muzzle devices do you recommend and why. Barrel is a melonited 16 inch 5.56 with 1/7 twist if that makes any difference to you.
Just get an A2.
What ever silencer you buy will have a muzzle device
a2 is fine

What's your use?
Tacticooling?
Fun?
Competition?
Does this type of sword exist, with a flared tip like this? What are they called if so?
I would give absolutely anything to run that qt through with a naginata, to hear her soft oriental gasp of pain before I draw my knife and slice into her soft flesh, crushing her young body under my weight and having my way with her corpse.
Sword is pretty cool too, though.
Yeah, I've seen actual real swords like this in museums. No clue what they are called though.
Guess they don't like stabbing stuff, but it would make some real nasty swings.
>>28420774
This sword specifically? Probably not. There are a lot of African examples that are somewhat similar however.
So, why hasn't anyone tried to set a "universal" standard for pistol mags, sort of like STANAG, so that every fucking pistol, even ones from the same manufacturer, doesn't need its own unique magazines?
Is it just greed, or is there a mechanical reason *?
*I'm obviously talking about stuff that use conventional mechanisms, not things like that pistol that pulls the bullets out of the mag from the rear.
cause every pistol has different grip angles for ergonomics
Because then they couldn't charge you $30-$50 per mag
You don't put an entire STANAG inside a rifle.
It only has to mesh up with the top couple inches.
Pistols come in all sorts of different grip widths, angles and lengths.
If you are required by law to have your guns locked in a safe, or have trigger locks installed on them, then how will you be able to access them fast enough when it only takes a rapist the same amount of time to enter your home and find you as it did to read this question?
It's like the government wants you to be raped.
but getting raped was part of my plan
It's not so much that they want you to be raped in general, just that they want to be able to rape you at will.
between 80 and 90% of rapes are in fact committed by someone the victim already knows.
the percentage of rapes by people "entering your home" is utterly dwarfed by those by an existing partner, an ex, or other associate.
Theoretically, how hard would it be to reactivate a Sten trophy with the barrel assembly welded shut.
>>28420191
Depends on how it was deactivated and how much/what is welded
>>28420201
What if the upper and lower receivers are intact, trigger assembly works, the bolt is intact but the barrel assembly is welded shut.
>>28420378
I just assumed the tools necessary to bore a barrel from scratch were expensive and unreliable.
