Found this in a basement today while I was working. The lady said her husband was in the 84th. There were some letters and other stuff too. I paid her $20 for the whole tin. Anyone want a read?

Been awhile since I saw a thread for this, and I need one so here it is.
I am 100% debt free, and have no obligations except one important detail I will discuss last. I have realized that where I come from is more caustic and harmful than I wanted to admit to. I won't wail a sob story, just things like

Keep them in a bag hidden and you'll be fine, don't draw attention to yourself. Also wtf is wrong with your family
Any tips for making this trip more smoothly would be really appreciated.
I also am still figuring out how to care for my cat during this, because he will be used to threaten me if I leave him here. I don't know how I can transport him with me yet though.

I got a 30-06 Savage Axis I need to zero but I don't want to spend too much money. Is a cheap bore sighter worth it or should I just throw fmjs downrange instead? I'm looking to go first time deer hunting next year.
Even with the laser bore sight thing, you still need to fire a box of ammo through the rifle just to get it zeroed and make sure it stays there for a couple shots. Especially if it's new and you've never fucked around with this rifle before. Those things are for getting you on target, I wouldn't consider them precise enough to zero with.
>>28296314
You can do the exact same thing for free by pulling the bolt and manually bore sighting the rifle when you get to the range.
>>28296344
I wish my rifle came with iron sights but most hunting rifles just don't have them. It is difficult to sight a 30-06 without going to a gun range.

I'm still in awe as to how a judge could uphold that tax when the state's constitution specifically prohibits cities from taxing firearms and ammunition. This should have been the most clear cut case ever
And I thought the ban on 7n6 was going to be undone? A bill got passed saying the atf could not ban it anymore
What exactly will the money from this tax do?

What kind of comparison is that, fag? The Ukrainians are in the middle of a civil war spurned by Russian invasion. The Japanese are too collectivist to have a civil war and they haven't been invaded since the 40s and never will be as long as they keep big daddy America around.
Does anyone know how much does this zippo worth? My dad got it from an American soldier in the 1980s and the ship was struck in 1995.
Bump
it's worth about the same as any other zippo unless you can find a collector. So, I'd say about $20. but if I had lost one of my ship or squadron zippos I'd pay up to 450 to get a replacement.
>>28296131
Thank you, anon
Is there any forum online with zippo collectors?
So? All the lies about how gun violence isn't impacted by other state's gun laws. The lies about how lax gun laws in one state doesn't draw scum from other states. All bullshit.

Would you support harsh laws to target operations like this?

Are you posing a question or a statement? "So?" appears to be intended as a question, but there is no question really put forth, as it is followed by what is basically a statement. Are we expected to refute your statement, answer a non-existant question, or is this a poorly worded prompt to propagate discussion?

New gun law proposed by state senator and rep from Brooklyn would ban ammo purchases, nearly all of them.
It bans buying more then 2x your gun's capacity every 90 days. Since NY already has a 10 round mag limit you need a gun with a 10 round mag to even be able to get a box of 20 rifle cartridges. Pistol ammo would be banned because its sold in boxes of 50 or 100.
Let them, New York is lost.
>>28295772
:( I live here. If this passes nobody in NY will be able to buy ammo.
At that point Upstate NY would try to find some way to detach NYC from their state. Let them try. If people started enforcing laws up there regarding things like this then it would end the whole gun control policies in NY for quite some time.
Need some help deciding, /k/, just turned 18 in Florida and wanted to go out and treat myself to my first rifle (since pistols are restricted until over 21 years of age). I'm trying to decide between an M1 Garand bought online or an AR-15 bought in-store, since I only have money to buy one.
I love the look of the M1, and I'd like to have one that was actually used in WWII, but at the same time the AR-15 seems more versatile, since I can change out the upper receiver and have an entirely different weapon and caliber in an hour. Also, never shot 30-06 before,...

>>28295667
What is intended use/ purpose of the rifle you wish to purchase?
>>28295667
Garand first. AR's will always be floating about, and can be built piece at a time over weeks/months.
Garands are cool and only go up in value. I built my garand so I didn't care about resell value.
Like he said.. What do you want. If it's going to the range.. The m1 is expensive to feed. Mine is 308 so it is cheaper to feed plus I was reloading my own for while. At 18 I don't think you will have the time to commit to reloading, or funds to feed your m1.
If you want to throw a shit ton of parts at it.. Go with the ar

Do you have calipers? What's the diameter of the bullet (not the whole cartridge) and the length of the case?
That looks kinda like 7.5 french. Or maybe 7.92 mauser?

Alright /k/ what's your opinion on the Century Arms WASR-2? I'm looking for a cheap 5.45 and know that anything wasr is what I'm looking for but just wanted to get your opinions on said gun.
>>28295069
Well, they don't import WASR-2's anymore for starters.
Also, being a 74 pattern rifle it should have a 90 degree gas block instead of a 45 degree gas block-- something to do with bullet sheering whenever it passes the gas port in the barrel. But apparently the Romanians drilled their 45 degree gas blocks at a 90 degree angle to fix that issue or something to that extent. Don't know much about WASR-2's specifically honestly, but consider that this is a Century import and Century is known...

Looks to me like the cheapest and most capable battle rifle available to Canadians is the SKS with some modifications.
Important features:
-semiautomatic
-takes magazines of 10 rounds or greater
-balanced for good pointability
-folding/sliding stock for easy transport in car/motorbike/skidoo/tractor/backpack
Arsenal refurbished SKS is $200
XCR mag adapter is $120
I haven't yet been able to find a stock that properly balances the SKS. Always too front-heavy. I've read that bullpup conversions do the trick, but I'd rather not...

>>28296076
Its the barrel that makes it front heavy more than anything else. Theres nothing much you can do to make it less front heavy. The only thing I can think of is getting a AR-15 compatible stock and putting a A2 on with lead weight in it and i'm not even sure if there are stocks that can use an A2 buffer tube.

i'd rather just buy a vz58, they're easier to strip and clean, theyre lighter and more ergonomic, and are drilled and tapped for a side optic mount
