Hey /k/ just bought my first rifle and handgun. What do I need to keep up with proper cleaning. I can't decide what to buy and kind of unsure. I would prefer to purchase something that includes stuff for various firearms.
tldr;
Recommend me some cleaning products and stuff.
>>28263437
Boretech or KG will clean the best with little work and no damage to your guns, some KG stuff needs to be cleaned with gloves tho, also for oil motor oil works fine for lubing but for rust resistance clp is a decent oil, tetra for grease, also eezox or corrosionx for storing guns , you will need special jags but its all worth it for super clean guns, or you can try electrolysis
>>28263437
really OP a bore snake, shop towels, CLP(any kind really) and a tooth brush will be all you ever need

Are these true?
What parts aren't quite true, if any?
"When you're being watched, what you need is contrast: A background that will make the surveillance stand out. "
Take that for example. That's true, except of course to apply it yourself is more for situational awareness.

Basically this means that with bad physical security, a set of clothes can help you get into a building. Be it maintenence, IT, janitors etc.

You have very different rifles in that list. For instance, is your preference a x54r or x39 caliber?

Get the Polish AK on their website
I bought a polish underfolder and it is literally the best AK I have personally ever shot.

Hello /k/, Germany there. Wanted to buy my first EDC knife. Which are best, need it for everyday-stuff and protecting myself from rayfoogees. I did boxing for six years, but I'm afraid it's not enough anymore. And it's shouldn't bee too expensive, if possible <60€.
I've owned an M16, and it was good, but not great. The folding mechanism got loose and sloppy after a year or so, and my retarded friends (lived in a frat house) always picked it up off my desk to play with it and couldn't figure out the secondary lock, so they just forced it closed and fucked it up, you can take it out and it still works just fine though
I've since moved on to a Kershaw leek, and its my favorite knife I've owned so far (not that I've had a huge amount)
>>28263319
afaik the german knife laws for carrying are like this:
-a folding knife can either be one hand opening or locking, not both
-fixed blade limited to 11(?) cm
-auto knives limited to 7(?) cm
-no ballisongs or otf knives (can't even own them)
Not a big chance of getting caught with it unless someone would be going around swinging and showing it off. Or it's just been used stabbing 4-5 guys
K/ommandos!
I'm seriously debating onna PTR 308 with the paddle release. I had the chance to play with one recently and fell in love with it.
Do you have any thoughts or opinions on it?
Inb4 heavy and bulky. I'm a big guy.
>PTR 308
Do you mean the PTR91 or the Century C308?
>>28263283
PTR 91.
I'm artarded but I've heard plenty of horror stories on the Century based guns. I had the pleasure of disassembling a C51 to find shit welds and a ground bolt face. mismatch rollers too.
Enjoy a semen demon.
>>28263301
>PTR 91.
They're good; get one.
How are rail guns supposed to function as effective fire support, exactly?
They're a big gun for you, sure.
Thing is, they fire solid shot really fast, which is good for penetrating stuff (e.g. the ground) but not really great for air bursting or hitting mobile targets or generating any sort of significant over-pressure or shrapnel.
Are naval railguns destined to be #12731 on the list of useless MIC welfare projects or do they expect to find some way of attaching payloads and terminal guidance to rail gun rounds in the future?
>>28262870
>not geat for mobile targets
Haven't you ever played Space Invaders? You don't shoot where they are, you shoot where they're going to be
>>28262870
Gee, if only they came in a cargo-delivery form that airbursted pellets against infantry or missiles.
Oh wait, they do and the test pics are already online in the Navy ppt-pdfs. Stay gay, OP.
> do they expect to find some way of attaching payloads and terminal guidance to rail gun rounds in the future?
Yes.
The idea for air-burst/area attack is that a solid slug can be replace with a flechette canister. Think of an airfield or formation being showered with thousands of hypersonic darts. Not a good day for anyone on that end.
Something that people seem to not be able to understand (To the point of madness) is that like all other electronic devices, the amount of energy used in its process (magnetic acceleration) can...

Sup dudes. We need a thread in 1911's with flashlights.
Just bought my first 1911, 2015 Colt Rail Gun.
Have an X300U on it right now, want to get a green laser X400 eventually.
>>28262853
Very nice gun!
Well at least Ian got to document a few examples. They'll be allowed to keep some of the pistols as long as their insides are cut up and welded up into paperweights but all machine guns will be banned even for museums.

Oh wow! A law from another country.
At least the uk is negotiating with brussels in an attempt to stop it. Even we understand how retarded chopping up history is

David Cameron is spearheading the ban on all semi-auto weapons:
http://www.breitbart.com/london/2015/12/14/cameron-wants-eu-wide-ban-semi-automatic-firearms/
I'm quite sure the UK will go ahead and adopt whatever is in there, even after plenty of other countries reject it all.
Would you use .22LR for arming members of a militia?
Why and why not? (ex: cost, ammo, weight, etc)
Curious what others have to say on the topic.
Pic is of my marlin 795 .22LR, daily carry.
>>28262429
Probably not because it's woefully underpowered for stopping anything bigger than a cat.
>>28262429
The Jews use it in limited roles to deter demonstrations and stuff.
But as a primary rifle for use? Shit bro.
>>28262429
you carry a marlin 795 every day?
How the FUCK did anyone convince soldiers to physically engage and fight each other brutally when this was a major style of warfare? Even something like WW1 seems impersonal and easy compared to two masses of men engaging face to face and hacking away at each other with steel. Furthermore, especially how the FUCK did anyone convince anyone who wasn't outright suicidal to assault the walls first in a siege? I imagine the first man up a ladder or out of a tower or through the breach would have almost no chance to live, but someone had to, and did. Madness.

Hypothetically, I would like to be invisible from FLIR. If i completely lined clothing with a fire blanket would that work? How would I hypothetically hide my heat signature from FLIR cameras mounted on helicopters?
>>28262347
You're not. Those things are accurate as fuck and can pick out extremely well trained snipers in the right conditions.

Even a tiny leak would show up. You want have to completely encapsulate yourself in thermal shielding and even then it wont work forever as eventually the shielding will heat up too.
How good is this rifle?
I read about the definition of the scout rifle, and I want this rifle because:
>Good for range fun
>Good for hunting
>Good for SHTF
>Good for home defense
I mean, it really is supposed to be the rifle that you should have if you could only have one.
Or is it not like this /k/?

Are you implying that when someone enters my house it will be an entire gang of some random criminals?
A bolt action is enough.
Question /k/:
I'm in the military and I had a drinking incident. My command made me go to an intensive out patient treatment thing. I haven't drank in a year because it's not worth the trouble.
Will that show up on a background check when I go to buy a gun or a permit for buying a gun?
The thing was just a two week alcohol is bad class. It was done on base by military personnel.
>>28262128
Drunk people are not allowed to own guns
>>28262148
I'm not actually an alcoholic, and I don't drink anymore, but procedure for my Shitty command was to say that I was and send me to a alcohol treatment thing. Will that hinder me on a background check?
