Reaching for advice; I'm forward-looking to design and built a prototype single shot rifle (like a flare gun with stock) using 27 x 137 m793 ammo. Any thoughts?
>>30535956
be sure to use plastic to keep it light weight
Wasn't there a dude that made a single shot .50 BMG rifle? Look up that, see if he left any plans that you can base yours off of. Hope you're good with a lathe.
Wait, aren't those rounds considered DDs and illegal?
>>30535991
So I just have to buy an orion flare gun and modify it?
Of course we will never use gunpowder weapon in space. And don't get me wrong, but the reason is not that gunpowder doesn't detonate in vacuum (there are ways to make this shit work anyway).
The true reason people will not go around with AK47 on the Moon or on Mars is that they would be way too effective -- to the point of causing a shitload of collateral damage if misfired.
You take down a man, but the bullet ends up digging a hole in a Martian base some 50 km in the distance... not so clever for you to use shit that might overkill.

there is a lot of real estate on a planet, what are the odds you are going to hit human habitation? the only issue with firing an ak on the moon would be it overheating.
>>30535618
>to the point of causing a shitload of collateral damage if misfired
OH no. Bullet holes. How dangerous.
PROTIP: No.

You must be retarded.
Is this a good beginners crossbow?

If I have to reverse image search just to find out which one you're asking about, then you've officially gone past the point of me not giving enough of a shit.
>Hey Walking Dead is cool!
>Can I has crossbow so I can be cool guy like Daryl???
You need more information. What is your goal to use a crossbow for (hunting, sport/rec, home defense(?), competition, etc)? All of that determines what draw weight you'd want. We can't look at a picture and decide. "Yeah, it has a string, some bolts, and a trigger, sure looks a-ok"

So sometimes I see scenarios of where people defend their houses after gun control
Here's a challenge
You're in the UK and a muslim is in your house to steal your stuff
How do you defend your home while following all UK laws?
And you can't call police
>>30535058
Here's a list of what you can do:
Jesus fucking christ. Summer comes around quick doesn't it?
Firstly, the fact that he's muslim doesn't make a shit of difference. I tell you what i do. Release the best home defence weapon anyone can have. My pair of alsatians. I follow up with the cricket bat.
>>30535058
That picture is pure cringe.
Following UK law, I pick up the nearest long or sharp object and beat/stab the person in my home until they are no longer a threat. Such is allowed under "reasonable" self-defence.
I want to build an AR for around $700, is it even possible and if so what is the best build possible? I live in California btw
Pic unrelated
>>30534994
>Cali
Go take that 700 dollars and buy enough pot to forget you live in Cali.
>>30534994
>pic
I've just done this to my hands and they do not look even half as ugly as those in pic.
>>30535050
What should I buy instead?
Where does this uppity entitlement complex come from?
The force in the 1960s and before never had to deal with this bullshit attitude that all millennial gunowning civilians seem to have now.
>>30534972
Why does law enforcement harass people who haven't done anything wrong or illegal? In the 60s a kid could walk down to the local park with his .22 rifle to shoot squirrels, and no one would bat an eyelash.
>>30534990
No they couldn't just ask JFK.
>>30534972
You break down national unity and your surprised people don't fall in line and obey American values?
This is what identify politics gets you, a fractured nation where were all individualist that care not for the community but constantly desperate to prove their independence.
>>30534990
Different social structure then. Americas current social structure is completely fucked.

Are AR15 stripped lowers out of stock for you guys as well?
I went to multiple fun stores yesterday in Commiefornia, and most of them were sold out, with the exception of an overpriced $300 Noveske lower.
>>30534850
Buy online.
>>30534850
I live in Connecticut, so AR15 lowers are illegal, and permanently sold out.

couldn't you build some sort of slave state ar where your fingers other than your trigger finger weren't below the action?
So, I want to get a suppressed SBR for reasons. I don't live in a full retard state, but I do live in the US. I've got some funds and have been lurking a bit. So I'm looking at a Sig MCX in 300bk, ideally with the 9" barrel and a Sig suppressor.
What I need your help with is: what's the most efficient and cost effective way of acquiring this? I'm expecting to need two tax stamps. I have a FLGS that doesn't suck (bought a few pistols but nothing expensive or complicated).
So, I come to you /k/omandos, give me some insight so I...

/k/ the the thread
Opinions exist here, experts we lack.

do you have a trust?
Anyone have details of what the Soviet infantryman would have been carrying in the mid 80s?
Also General Soviet Afghan war picture thread.
read Afghanistan: a russian soldiers story
im going through it right now its pretty okay

Probably 5.45mm ak's(Rpk-74s,Aks74u,Ak74's.) and possibly Pk's but I'm not shure
ITT: post your knifes, preferably selfmade
Start off with mine, stainless damascus steel, handle is Anigre wood. blade length 10cm/3.93in
made out of old soviet industrial saw. 3mm thick, blade approx 13cm long and 4cm wide,
sharpened at a V angle gradually 2cm of the blade for great chopping performance.
Handle is pine gorilla glued on, as drills wouldnt penetrate the blade.
weight 200grams
Someone here on /k/ told it would be nice if I carved some trench art into the handle. but I have no idea how.
Google only gives engraved artillery casings with jesus on them.
>>30535321
Put some real fucking wood on there you faggot
Check the catalog buddy
Is a handheld 1.75 in diameter firework artillery launcher considered a dd? I'm confused on what they say is a weapon but I looked and it said pyrotechnics are exempt. But if you make a device to aim and shoot then what is it?
>>30534623
For clarification I went to atf dd regulations here

I was looking at these in the grocery store the other day. Got to thinking...
Could these be used as an improvised flashback?
What goes /k/ think?

Flashbang*
Fuck you autocorrect
I was watching a thing about WW2 the other day and how when pushing in to Germany the Americans couldn't make much progress at all against German positions in a Forrest where tanks and air and artillery strikes were not an option. And that lasted until the battle of the Bulge counter offensive.
I also think I read something a while back about how the Iraqi military trained by the US was so ineffective once America left because the Americans sim ply trained them to bunker down and wait for air strikes/artillery, so when the amrerican firepower left, so did their entire...

>Americans sim ply trained them to bunker down and wait for air strikes/artillery
This is false, but they came to rely on it because the reality.
Equality based initiatives.
>>30534515
During WW2 they lacked squad level machinegunner, BARs "kinda" filled that role, but American-used BARs were garbage when used as LMG in comparison to their export models(which had better bipod, quick-replaceable barrel etc.).
Hello, soon i will be getting my first rifle but I'm stuck on what to get. I'm stuck between getting a ak (arsenal 107 is the one im stuck on) or something in 762x51/308., between a g3 clone, fal or a m1a, or if anything I'll get a colt le6920. What should i choose k?
>>30534497
Sounds like you need to get a Winchester 1907.
I'm not a fan of the arsenal 107. I'd rather have a WASR or a 104.
ptr 91 is better than an equivalently priced fal or m1a
le6920 is a good choice as well especially since it is better for home defense than any of your other choices
>>30534497
Get the AR-15. Ammo is cheap. Parts are everywhere. Most Murrican gun. Very little recoil. You can play legos with it. Mags are cheap.
AKs are fun. I have the Arsenal 107. They are not comfortable guns to shoot though. I already had to replace the stock on it, and the pistol grip is next.
Battle Raifus are also fun, but the ammo is fucking expensive.
At the end of the day buy what makes you happy though.
So the French army will replace the FAMAS rifle.
5 choices are here :
- HK416
- FN SCAR
- ARX 160
- SIG 516 or MCX
- VHS2
What's the best? Who'll win?
>>30534402
MCX or SCAR
Lelkek RDB.
Just do M4 Carbine.
