My dad thinks handguns are only for shooting people. He's so stubborn about it. How can I convince him that they are worth buying for safety/fun?
>>28425704
tell your dad to grow a pair
>>28425704
Fun is relative and doesn't safety mean shooting people?
>>28425704
You're dad sounds like a big faggot. Tell him to vote for his cuck master Bernie Sanders and stfu
We all know that this suitcase, known as the Football, contains the nuclear launch codes for the President to order a nuclear strike. But what if something happened to it? What if it got lost or stolen? How long would it take to get a replacement? Is there any back-up system in place to allow submarines to launch without Presidential consent?
>thinking anyone on /k/ knows the nuclear launch protocol
>>28424732
Won't stop us from making shit up, but i heard if you lose a launch code the nuke is bricked.

>But what if something happened to it? What if it got lost or stolen? How long would it take to get a replacement?
What if some gangster got a hold of it and tried smoking it innajoint?
What if Obama promised to keep it safe and forgot about his promise?
What if the Jews tried to purchase it from the state?
What if the Chinese captured it, and began mass producing knock offs to corner the American market for launch code briefcases?
You need to ask the real questions.

You have to become naturalized first I think.
So I was in Arizona visiting family (I'm from there originally) and my father-in-law knows I like guns, so he took me to cabelas to purchase a rifle.
Cabelas refused me for having an out of State ID, company policy. Not a law tho, went to mom & pop gunstore, told them I was out of state, they said I could buy a long gun, buy not a handgun, NP.
>well that depends also, which state are you from?
Wisconsin.
>OK you're good, we don't do NY or CA
Then he followed with...

Not OP, but if I'm stationed in California and have an out of state driver's license can I still pick up a lower I ordered?
I'm really not eager to wait for my lower to get to the FFL and have him tell me I need a California Driver's license. He probably deals with 90% people who are in the same situation, but I'm not sure
>>28424378
Cabela's was probably just a company policy issue. I have no idea why there was a wait on just a rifle, what city were you in?
>>28424378
Because of their company policy. They're a private entity and not a good place to buy a gun, on the whole.
Your rights weren't violated. So shut the fuck up.
What will it take for aircraft development to accelerate again like it did after WW2?
>>28401177
War, or even better, cold war. A worthy advesary and US fear mongering helps too.
The government to release top secret information.

So normally I live 300 miles away from the nearest bookstore but I'm on leave and going book hunting for k approved or stalker related books.
I'm planning on getting metro 2033. I have enjoyed reading "fry the brain" and "storm of steel". You guys got any suggestions?
>>28400881
It's not stalker, but All Quiet on the Western Front
WWI Paul, a German infantryman deals with war and shit. Kinda slow, but I liked it. Points out the crazy trench nonsense like starvation and scary noises.

On Pain, also by Ernst Jünger
Is there a major difference between the 17 and 17C? Would the gas ports make a big difference in a CC situation? I have the option to trade my G19 for a G17C, and I prefer full size for carry. I have a Streamlight I will be carrying as well so I'm wondering if that will make the fireballs not as noticeable. Also, down the road I plan to get a match barrel anyways. Any input would be appreciated.
>>28400766
>is there a major difference
yeah one has holes in the top of the slide
>blah blah blah CC
you wouldnt really want a compensated gun for CC, especially low light situations, a lot of the muzzle flash is going to be directed through the ports, thats the point of them. a lot of light in front of your face instead of mostly directed downrange. kind of distracting and

The compensator is a meme.
Really not necessary.
Try shooting a compensated pistol first. My own experience is that of "It feels like I'm being lightly slapped in the face every time it goes off."
It usually ends up in Flinch City unless you get to the range a LOT.
Republican presidential front-runnerDonald Trump vowed this weekend that if he's elected, he would undo an executive order President Obamais expected to make soon to tighten the U.S.'s gun control laws.
"We're not changing the Second Amendment," the billionaire businessman andformer Atlantic City casino magnatesaid Saturday during a rally in Biloxi, Miss. "I will veto that. I will unsign that so fast."
If he actually does get elected, he won't
Screenshot this post because it's not happening, he'll be co-opted into exactly the same system every president does
CAN'T STUMP IT
How can white men even compete? The changes do nothing to affect the 2nd btw.
Your opinion on pistol lights for home defense or offensive applicaitons?
Anyone have any experience specifically with Aim Sports lights like in pic related?
I would want one if I were using a handgun for applications like that (HD, duty, etc.)
But I would probably just pony up for an X300 or TLR or something along those lines
>>28423820
Don't buy shitty cheap shit.
You can buy either the Streamlight TLR-1 starting from 100 dollars, brand new from Amazon of all places, or splurge on the Surefire X300 for 269.99.
These are literally the best pistol lights on the market and they are available at good prices. Both lights can be adapted for carbine/rifle use, as well as have replacement parts to make it compatible with pressure switches if you need to go even more gucci on a rifle.
These are your two options. Period.
>>28423820
Have been known to case frame flex issues in polymer guns. Keep your light off your gun.
Who in /commiewastelandstates/ here?
How do you operate with the shit tier laws in your state? Do you keep your guns in your government mandated safes or do you store them like a normal human being?
I live in a commie state (NJ), but it's right next to a free state (PA).
Thank the lord for Pennsylvania.
What are the grey states? When is this map from?
>>28423057
No legislation active for grey states I think. Old map from 2013. If anyone has an updated one, share it.
>>28423054
I live in NYC so it literally can't get any worse.
Is there a better budget red dot sight than the Vortex Sparc II, or is this as good as it gets until you splurge for a Aimpoint?
Is there a better optic in it's class?
>>28421541
Maybe a good deal on a used trijicon reflex
I had dealer pricing on Vortex optics for a while through my employer. Bought my dad one of these for his AR and it is pretty fucking nice, especially for the price.

I'm the only faggot who noticed this error the first time when saw Batman?
he should have pulled the trigger it wouldve saved heath the trouble
>>28400494
According to your picture's caption, it might not be an error.
Tis the illusion of choice. Thats kind of what the joker does throughout the movie.
So I was browsing around my local gun show last week and found myself at a militia representative table. I talked a bit with him about what they do and was kinda intrigued by what he had to say.
What's /k/ view on local millitia?
Some are good, some are shit. Take them on a case by case basis.
Everyone is FBI, ATF, or local police.
>>28400228
and some are government honeypots.
So the old MPA's fire out of battery and break in under a 1000rds
The UZI pro has a 20lb trigger with a 4lb grip safety
The Scorpion Evo snaps
Is there a decent sub-gun available for under $1000
>>28400104
What do you mean by "break"? Are you talking about the disconnecter breaking? If so you can replace the hammer with an older hammer (still sold on their website) without the moving disconnecter that won't have that problem.
>>28400519
Out of ass talking.

Pps-43c. I have one and it's pretty fucking fun.
