I was in the shop the other day checking out these guns. I'm honestly torn between the two. Is the recoil/accuracy any better on the 19? I feel having a smaller more concealable gun when I need it with the option of having an extension mag or just throwing a G19 mag into it makes the 19 kind of pointless when choosing between the two. I have a pretty skinny frame and however I holster the 19 it sticks out.
Anyone had experiences with these 2 that wants to weigh in?
g26 is more kawaii
I would probably prefer a Glock 27 though if I was going for concealed anyway
>>28289914
sounds like you've already eliminiated the 19
>>28289914
both are fine but it really depends on if you can tolerate not having a full grip on the gun most likely your pinky has no space on a 26
the 26 recoils slightly more but its still 9 so its not bad its just harder to control cause youve got less gun to hold
Welp another reminder that if you actually buy from Smith & Wesson you hate everything right with the world.

I put my M&P 9C up for sale today. I got it for $300, and I got 3 free mags AND a $50 rebate from it.
So $250 for a handgun I barely used with 5 mags and night sights. I don't think I can lose.
I'm probably going to get an FNS-9C or a H&K P30SK
>>28289881
How did you like it? New trigger or the shitty old one?
I don't care. I still like them.
S&W cares not what the individual does with their guns, only what other companies are.
Avast ye faggots, this here be the nuggetfest thread of the day.
>>28289818
Who wants to debate wether or not I bring my offensive flag collection? Some of the highlights include a nazi battle flag, a confederate flag, a gay pride flag, and an ISIS flag (that I had to screen print myself) amongst any others.

What were the most popular rifles in Australia prior to Port Arthur?
FALs, SKSes, AR-15s were becoming more popular.
Quite a nice bit of everything, honestly.
I left shortly after Howard took away my guns. Now I'm living comfortably in America.
According to Ron Owen - major redneck gunshop owner - his shop in Gympie imported more SKKs than the total number of all semiautos handed back in the 96 debacle.
>theyre out there in pvc pipe...
SKS, SKK, mini 14
So what are the chances of us seeing a massive development in firearms technology within' our lifetimes?
It seems a lot of the technology is already there for laser or guass guns, but we just don't have the right batteries and the like to go the whole mile yet.
>>28289787
Quite possible, so long as batteries get an improvement and aren't as shitty.
>>28289787
Slim to be honest.Maybe more efficient recoil systems, more advanced optics/target tracking, and maybe guided rounds in smaller calibers, but probably not anything like a laser or gauss because no portable power source strong enough.
However, guided sniper rounds and self-calibrating optics would be pretty dope (pun intended)
>>28289787
I'd expect nightvision optics (and NVGs themselves) to become cheaper and more popular... perhaps some kind of cybernetic targeting system for the military so a soldier can acquire a sight picture without needing to physically look down the barrel. Perhaps some funky caseless 6mm new assault rifle round. All told, it'd be incremental improvements that may or may not actually be worth the costs of using.

Virginia CC, now this? Where will the madness end?

It's like they think people can't put on their sneakers and walk to Ballard and buy guns and ammo tax-free. It's an absurdly pointless measure.
You've been paying a federal excise tax on guns and ammo since 1937
Hey /k/ I've got a chance to get a 1943 lee enfield 4t sniper for 4000 $. Comes with scope w/ matching numbers both for the rifle and the scope. Worth it?
No. Not in any sense.
How so?
Do you like it ?
Can you afford it ?
If both answers were "yes", then go
Were the Germans issued bayonets for the Kar98k during WW2?

They most certainly did.

Could .40 S&W conceivably go the way of .38 Super, in that it will become a niche cartridge used more for specific sports rather than as a mainstream combat/"plinking" cartridge?
Where .38 Super was, to a certain extent, pushed out by .357 magnum, .40 S&W seems more and more like it's being pushed out by modern loadings of 9mm. .40 S&W has found some popularity in very much the same place as .38 Super, practical shooting sports where power factor and other relevant factors are a concern.
On the other hand, it seems like .40 S&W really came in to existence at exactly the right moment (Moreso than .38 Super) and had a lot of time to catch on before departments started to realize it's shortcomings. This gave the cartridge the chance to build up a huge number of Gov't contracted host weapons, as well as HUGE contracts for ammo. Because of both of those factors, it also had the momentum to grab consumer attention from folks who wanted the same guns/ammo as trusted by various agencies.
Would it be possible for .40 S&W to fall into obscurity, or is it too entrenched at this point? The cartridge is only 20 some odd years old, so it's pretty early into it's life when compared to oldie-but-goodies like 9mm/.45, even though it's popularity really skyrocketed in such a short time.
Will .40 S&W continue to be popular enough to stay in stock (Regularly) at your local WalMart or other mainstream sporting goods store, or will it lose it's steam and slide into more of a niche role, having more major, middle, and minor agencies drop it along with average shooters?
To be clear, I'm not really anti .40 S&W, but I've really enjoyed shooting .38 Super guns and kind of wonder if other cartridges have/will come to the same fate.
>>28289430
If you want my opinion, the ammo will probably continue to be popular but fewer and fewer new guns will be made in it. I think .45 is going to decline too, just not as much.
>>28289430
9mm Does everything .40 s&w does except more. 9mm has better capacity and the recoil is more easily managed for getting more rounds on target.
9mm is better in every way. Sure you may be able to shoot .40 better, some people shoot different cartridges better. But 9mm is still, tactically, superior.
>>28289501
We already know that. OP is asking if .40 has a chance of staying in production despite that.
>>28289495
is probably right. There's plenty of fuddlore surrounding it ("it's like a 45 with almost 9mm capacity!") that it'll survive its falling out with police. I don't think the comparison to .38 Super is really fair, considering that the market the .40 came out in was completely different from the one that the .38 did.
Name a better assault rifle.

Where's the guy with the roll for country pic when you need him?
Picked up another M39, she's a beaut.
I've got all the cosmoline out of the metal parts, but the stock is soaked in the stuff. What's the best way to get the cosmoline out without damaging the original finish?
>>28289229
I just wiped with paper towels to start with.
I shot it and got it hot so it was bleeding out of an otherwise clean stock, then wiped more off with the towels I'd brought. Pretty soon, there wasn't any left.
>>28289229
upside down picture thanks to mobile, goddamnit.
>>28289251
nice, may just go that route, seems the most gentle. any thoughts on soaking it in mineral spirits? will that take off the finish?

Hickok is right, never going to Virginia again and Colonial Williamsburg has some fine beaches.
Virginia was already on my shit list because it's the only state that will sentence you to jail time for simple speeding. The whole DC-Maryland-Virginia area is a cancer.

Damage is nice and allows for intense firefights with a tasteful length
Also the Dark Zone is the tits. You can make squads with randos and work together to secure gear, explore, and hunt down faggots who shoot on sight.
The only possible downfall is if the DZ turns into GTA where little kids run around and shoot on sight. But of course if they piss enough people off, you have a nice little vigilante squad to go hunt their sorry asses down.
And it has MOSINS
