My first AR ever (still in progress) My brothers, dad, and friends all have these things so I had to join in.
Started from 80%, finished at the manufacturer.
IN
new upper is completed
Does your AR stand on its OWN?
I'm kinda upset that I got a heavy barrel. I didn't know what SOCOM was, I just bought it. I guess it won't get hot, as fast right? I was going for a lightweight build since I already have a long range precision gun
Pic unrelated
I have some question this is my first time here.
After studying for stocks and other investments in shit my country may be headed for a collapse soon.
Assets are useless guns will be worth a lot more for obvious reasons.
I remember seeing posts about 45s having to much knockback for a noob.
For now What pistols do you recomend to buy that are cheap or the cheapest concealed pistols?
Also how do I order them online efficiently, I read there was a trick where you order the guns missing one part and it will go through?
I'm japanese also living in a foreign country.

Longish four-part post I found interesting:
FOUR AGAINST ONE
Situational awareness, training, concealed carry even the odds
By Danny O. Coulson
Spring, 2007 my wife and I drove from home near Fort Worth, to visit family in New Orleans. I carried a CAR-15 in the trunk of our Honda Ridgeline, secured my H&K P-7 in the glove compartment and armed myself with a vintage Browning P-35, my weapon of choice since serving on the Hostage Rescue Team.
Our journey to Louisiana was uneventful and our return on a warm Sunday afternoon started as a leisurely drive, until the Dallas/ Ft. Worth area on I-20. My wife wanted some bottled water. I pulled into a service station on the north side of I-20. We had fuel, so I bypassed the pumps, to park and run into the mini-mart. As I pulled past the pumps and store entrance, I noticed a bandit barrier protecting the cashier. My antenna went up: There was enough concern over robberies, to protect their employees. Better be alert.
>"Four-part" should read "multi-part"
On Alert!
With no parking near the door, I pulled to the far left end. I noticed a dumpster just to the far left of the building; Leaning against it was an individual wearing a dark hooded sweatshirt. His arms were crossed and he watched us intently. “Better watch this one,” I thought—“too hot for a hooded sweatshirt.”
I nodded toward the dumpster and under my breath said to my wife, “I don’t like that one.” We entered, purchased water and exited the front door to return to our truck. I took my wife’s arm and steered her toward the center of the lot, toward the pumps, not along the sidewalk. I wanted space, for time to react if necessary. Our route to the truck was a gentle ark, letting me visually cover most of the parking area. Using the sidewalk between parked cars and the mini mart would have been seriously impeded my ability to see a threat before it was upon us. Training and experience have taught me to rapidly close with an opponent in a CQB (close quarter battle) situation and give him little time to react. In the HRT, our CQB philosophy was “speed, surprise and violence of action.” We always wanted to launch rescue operations as close to the subjects as possible, to maximize our tactical advantage and firepower. Were I to be attacked I needed to reverse that, to gain space and time and rely upon my firearms skill to prevail.
As we approached the truck, the individual still stood by the dumpster, arms still crossed, watching us intently. His gaze did not leave us as we approached the truck. I opened the passenger door and told my wife, “get the pistol.” I walked behind the truck and thought for a second about retrieving the CAR-15, but did not because I had not been threatened and did not want to alarm customers. But suspicions would change to threats in seconds.
The Trap
As I turned the rear corner of the truck, the man in the sweatshirt (“Subject One”) started walking briskly to my left in the direction of the pumps, never taking his eyes from me. There was no doubt in my mind he was trying to circle behind and very likely put me in an “L” situation with a confederate. In a CQB situation putting your opponent in the “L” or crossfire is the ultimate tactical advantage. It takes more time to write about this experience, than the fractions of seconds of the actual events.
Most people would react by immediately getting to the safety of the car and locking the doors. That never entered my mind. If an assault unfolded, as I could see it beginning, I did not want to be in my truck trying to put it in motion when an aggressor approached my truck, gun in hand: That would put me at the mercy of my attacker(s). With attackers in such close proximity, my weapon would not have served me well especially if two attackers approached from opposite sides of the truck.
To Fight Back
My thought was to engage head-on, outside my vehicle. Chances of survival would be better if I neutralized the threat at a distance. I immediately opened the driver’s door and drew my weapon from the DeSantis Holster that holds the P35 “cocked and locked.” I positioned myself behind the open door, and removed the safety. Gun now held low behind the door in both hands, I started turning my head back and forth between subject number one and in the direction of the dumpster. If there was to be a fight I wanted it on my terms and I wanted as much cover as possible. Immediately Subject Number Two appeared from behind the dumpster, pulling a ski mask over his face as he moved directly toward me. I looked back and forth from Subject One to this new threat. I presented the Hi-Power with the dot of the front sight aligned on the chest of Subject Two. I thought I would engage Subject Two with a double tap and then engage Subject One with two shots and then re-evaluate. I could not see the hands of Subject Two as they were hidden in what appeared to be a large pocket in the front of his sweatshirt. Based on the action of the two of them and the fact that Subject Two now wore a ski mask as he quickly moved toward me, there was no doubt that our lives were in danger.
This was to be a brazen assault for purposes unknown. I feared for our lives. The Browning has a two-stage trigger: I took up the slack and was about to engage. Subject Two was within 10 yards of my protected position when subject Number One screamed “No, No, No.” With that, both subjects whirled and sprinted back toward the dumpster and disappeared. I locked and closed the door to the truck and told my wife “if they come back, shoot them through the window.” I then made a wide arc to the left of the dumpster and observed three men in ski masks and Subject One running into the darkness.
Is there any practical application to pic related in this day and age?

Hey /k/, what's your take on using a mare's leg as a canadian wilderness carry option? Which calibur should I go for?
>>28046934
wouldn't it require a bullshit stamp?
Why not just use a 44 magnum or a heavy 45 long colt like a normal person?
>>28046960
>being normal
>>28046960
ahem, I said Canadian wilderness carry, as in no handguns because getting a permit for it is stupid hard. Plus in Canada we see a mare's leg as a rifle.
Okay, I've done all I can to look for a holster that goes with my weapon. No luck. Can anyone show me where I can find one?
It's a T-100
If you need more info, just ask.

Oh no, that weapon is too deadly to post

You kuck
Go have one made
It's not that hard
There are leather shops that custom make holsters
There is a fag at every gun show making holsters,
Stop. Being a beta fag.
Burke Flight III, Atago and Type 45.
Which one is the best destroyer class right now?
>>28046709
A 1v1 the Type 45 would beat both. Why? Because the III doesn't exist "right now" and the Atago has worse radar and missiles.
For all around practical purposes the Burke III wins.
If you want to act like you're an independent nation, the Atago.
>>28046709
Flight III doesn't exist yet. It'll be the best in all aspects once it does though.
Currently Flight IIA Burke is probably the best all-rounder. Daring has better air defenses on a one on one basis with Burkes (aside from BMD right now), Burkes have better in the context of a carrier group. Burkes are also better ASW and SuW platforms, since that's not what the Daring is built for at all.
Atago probably has the worst air defense of the three (though it has the SM-3 which is nice), but it's more versatile than the Daring.
>>28046742
Type 45 has a slightly better radar and better AA missiles. But Atago has two times more cells that will soon get SM-6.
At anti ship it's not even comparable. Nips have better missiles than Harpoons and SM-2 can be fired at ships. Aster can't.
Any of you brahs go to college while in the military?
How did it work out for you?
>>28046612
Only POGs have time to do that shit while theyre in.
>>28046612
Unless ROTC, you should do one thing at a time.
Either focus on school, get decent grades, and then join military for that loan reimbursement/forgiveness goodness, or go to military, and go to school later with the GI bill.
I only heard bad things with simultaneous guys.
>>28046612this hot chick i knew in the RMY WAS SUPPOSEd top be a 2nd LT starting. but the 2nd Lt (ceballos) lost hr 2nd LT status by getting a D in a specific class, lost all endorsement fromthe military. had ot pay back loans in full or join as a private. she joined as private/

I desperately wish I weren't back at university. I bought a Yugo M24/47 over the break which I had cleaned and fired just before coming back up to school. My brothers and I dropped a magazine of full metal jacketed 8mm Mauser into a pumpkin. I want to show off to my stranger internet friends, but it's 2 and a half hours away and I haven't taken any pictures yet.
I want off the educational ride. It gets in the way of my life.

Sup /k/ im looking into getting a multitool and i can't decide between leatherman and swiss. I have watched a few videos but I still can't decide. I don't have any specific needs, just the occasional odd job.
I own a lot of Leathermans and the only Vic I own is the Swisschamp
The debate comes down to the pliers. If you need pliers, then get a Leatherman, if not, then get a SAK. The pliers on the SAK are just horrible.
The smaller SAKs are better for daily carry, but the Leatherman Wave/Surge are just much better for going inna woods and shooting.
>>28046524
Came here to say exactly this
>>28046282
Goin' innawoods? Leatherman Signal
Goin' inna server room? Leatherman Skeletool
Goin' full retard? Victorinox ______

I saved this ages ago and saved in a "why revolvers are awesome" text file. I'm no guns and don't really know that much, so I was wondering if you /k/ommandos had any thoughts on it:
Revolvers have a lot going for them in the medium caliber configuration, more so than in the big caliber one, I think. The old military and police with the skinny barrel was actually lighter than a glock (consider ammunition weight), very reliable, intrinsically more accurate than almost any auto (the Swiss sig p210, not the 220, can keep the track), cheap and would point like your finger, the grip profile can be adjusted by just replacing stocks to fit your hand like a glove. For my home defense I opted for the 686, because it was the only factory model with an affordable price and an improved double action trigger. Money not being a problem, I'd buy a French Manhurin MR73 today. There are other interesting European designs like the German Korth, the Italo German Sauer by Armi San Paolo (projected in Germany and produced in Italy, an adaptation of the classic M&P design with selected barrels, I've seen scary test clusters from these), the Mateba. Affordable yet effective sixguns were and in some case still are produced by Astra, LLama, CZ (the Grand Model).
Lets face it, the 38 caliber revolver has won more gun battles against criminals than any other weapon, it possesses some shortcomings as anything. Those shortcomings were due to the use of ineffective loads (round nose 158 grains police and 130 grains air force). The gun industry lives by selling new guns, so the 38 that refused to go out of service had to be killed (police departments wouldn't give away serviceable guns to purchase new ones of the same model made with inferior production standards, they would, however, trade obsolescent, outmoded that is, guns for innovative, not field tested, designs).
The NYPD's first issue weapon was the colt hand ejector in 32, chosen by the supervisor Theodor Roosvelt, then they went to 38 colt new service, than to Smith's 38 which they retained till the nineties. The NYPD had to allow agents to retain their service revolvers, if they so wished, because veterans refused to trade their beloved Smiths for a plastic pistol, in front of an astonished supervisors committee. The 38 revolvers produced from the 60's to the 80's could remain in service up to 2010 and immobilize police pistol market... The moment they were sold out, gunwriters rushed to buy them, nuff said...
Colonel Rex Applegate trained the operatives to send behind the Axis line in WWII, had access to 45 and 9mm autos of all sorts (Colt, Browning captured Walthers), his choice for OSS operatives? 38 Military and Police with 4" barrel.
Charles Askins was a major of the US Marine corp with experience in the Sicily, Italy and Europe expeditions, a top notch international shooter and an officer of the US Border Patrol with many gunfights on his record. He knew so much about guns that he wrote, in 1953, that the US Military would have moved to a double action 9mm (a solution he did not disagree with, for military applications). His choice of weapon? 38 and 45 revolvers with 4" barrel.
Jim Cirillo, veteran of the NYPD stakeout unit and later instructor in the FBI accomplished all his feats with a 38 M&P, today his becoming interested in DAO autos, but I believe his choice of weapon is still a 4" 44 magnum revolver.
Raimond Sasia, chief instructor of the French Gendarmerie and creator of the Sasia method (see "Le Tir Rapidè") in the 70' could choose among all sorts of automatics, his choice? The 3" inches 38/357 revolver.
In the 60' a specialized unit was created to fight in Vietnam tunnels, the unit was proposed the 45 auto, but choice of weapon was up to the members, who opted for 38 revolvers for the most part. These simply worked better when you had to fight in tight quarters in the dark.
When WWI broke out, the army with the most extensive fighting experience in the recent years was the British one, followed by the French.
Italy, Austria, Germany, Turkey, USA (partly) issued automatics of new (then kinds), England officers carried .455 Webleys, French Officers 8mm Lebels.
The old Webley was a sought after weapon in WWII as well, ask to veterans, I've done it.
Jeff Cooper, who is best known for promoting the 1911 A1 in 45, has always held that the average officer and shooter with non highly specialized training is better served by a revolver of 44-45 caliber and that such weapon is immensely superior to any 9mm auto.
He does not talk much about his own experience, but we know he has taken out a Japanese machinegunner, a Japanesse rifleman and a SMG armed red in Thailand at separate times with one shot each from a pistol. The latter two were taken with the 1911, the first with the old colt SAA.
The only two automatic fans of the old school I'm aware of were W. E. Fairbarn and Winston Churchill (who used a German Mauser with dum dum bullets in Omdurman).
Chick Gaylord, holster designer and father of modern concealed weapon fast draw, with experience as Secret Services operative, was a revolverman from day Alpha to day Omega.
One last paladin we can mention is Bill Jordan with top notch combat credentials in both the Marines and the border patrol, he would hold the superiority of the revolver over the auto any time.
An Italian policeman I know, who was responsible for politicians escort during the years of red terrorism, ones had a malfunction with his service auto and carried a colt detective special for all the rest of his career.
An English officer of the military police who was later assigned in Kenya during the Mau Mau affair, I can't tell his name for obvious reasons, was confronted in the middle East by three armed "allied" officers he was pursuing for crimes of war. They were their to eliminate him, no less, he drew his service revolver and sent them to the other side. This guy has been a Bisley competitor for a long time and knew much about guns.

> tl;dr a revolver in .38 is apparently one of the best guns for concealed carry
so we just finished up our Oregon/Washington mini meet.
