Hey /k/. First time gun owner here. Picked up this M44 not too long ago, and it's the second time I've shot her. I've used only Brown Bear and Tulammo, and ran about 160 rounds or so through her. First time, I "cleaned" her up on the spot, then a little more at home. Today, I cleaned her up a little, and then tried to finish up more once I got home. Is this rust? Please tell me it's not. Did I fuck up? What am I doing wrong? How do I clean a rifle, because I admit I don't know how exactly.

Not getting rust in the barrel is as easy as.
>have boresnake
>spray/dip boresnake with oil
>run through gun a few times
>you now have a layer of oil over everything so moisture can't reach corrosive salts even if they're still present
It's hard to tell if that's rust or something else from your pic.

>Is this rust? Please tell me it's not.
Looks like metal fouling from the copper jacket. Soak a patch in some copper solvent, run it down the bore, and let it sit for an hour. Then run another patch soaked in copper solvent down and see what comes out. Run a few more patches through, then a few dry ones and check again for color. If it remains, then repeat.
Guys I'm a genius. I archived the last thread so if I die people will know what happened. Here's my last update:

"Fuck, I'm an idiot."
>make my rounds
>doors still locked

Here's the first thread
Fuck guys come on, get here
Sitting calmly with a sammich to watch the proceedings. Have you considered music (Not loud enough to attract its attention, mind) to boost morale?
Very very very very very spooped /k/. Here's what happened

What the fuck do I do now? I haven't told my wife what happened and I don't plan on it. The last thing I want to do is worry her.
help
Open this thread in /x/. It's either some crackwhore on pcp or a skinwalker/paranormal thing. Post link to new thread. Some of the xfags will actually be helpful, surprisingly. DO NOT follow the fucking thing into the woods.
>>24058373
No intention to follow it, believe me. Just locked down the house. None of the /x/fags have replied yet
If anybody's lurking I forgot to mention that it wasn't even trying to get into the shed. Just fucking staring at the doors.
No spooky innawoods thread? Spooky Innawoods thread.
NOPED the fuck outta the woods once late at night when a screetching thing was following me parallel on the other side of a river.
Here's one.
Fuck that shit.
One time I was in SoCal, was shooting in the deserts and heard a huge boom in the distance, went up the hill and didn't see a soul.
>meet some operators in the lunch room talking about how it used to be in Iraq
>overhear some guys talking about the animals
>tell them my grandpa saw some shit with horrible animals in Morocco
>Operator turns left and begins an awesome story.
>When I was in Iraq we were driving posts for a new fence. I was in the infantry guarding the piledriver machine ACoE used to drive the poles into the sand
>there were some convenient holes, evenly spaced about 12 feet apart all around the location of our new base.
>everything is going better than expected because piledriver machine has no problem driving posts into the ground.
>All of a sudden Arab with 3 camels with all kinds of bags and shit attached to their back begins to approach us and starts flailing his hands wildly and yelling
>Red Alert

That should cover it all.
Oh yeah, I forgot: tripfags
Now that's all of them.
Any monster or demon hunters here?
I've been doing some research and I'm considering getting 15 silver bullets for my Jericho 941. However this is fairly expensive. Is this normal? Does demon hunting pay fairly well? How do you afford silver bullets?
Is it true that only heirloom silver works on werewolves?
What would be the preferred round for vampires? Help me out guys
>>23990632
I hunted your mom's crotch monster last night.
The casing doesn't have to be silver too.
Werewolves heal, but not all that fast. A good shotgun slug is still your best bet.
If you want a nice paycheck, best bet is to work FOR the demons.
For an honest to god vampire, tracers and incendiaries should be your go-to choice.
>>23990632
nobody NEEDS silver bullets
Got the afternoon to myself. Reposting the old thread intro for our newer visitors.
>Ask me about nuclear weapons. (Except the science). Nuclear weapons strategy, weapon effects, current capabilities, former capabilities, weapon effects, etc....
>My bona fides:
>Worked with nuclear strategy and arms control with 2 different agencies (Bureau of Verification and Compliance, Office of Nuclear Deterrence) and currently work for an private sector group involved in anti proliferation policy.
>A few notes.
>1) I can not give you anything that is illegal for me to disclose. In most cases, it might be in the wikipedia article but still illegal for me to talk about it.
>If this comes up, I will tell you.
>2) This also means that 100% of what I can tell you you can find in a book or paper. So why do this? Because most people don't want to wade through reams of paper to answer one question.
>As I have already read through those oceans of crap, I can save you some time.
>3) What is policy, is often times different from my opinion. Where they differ, I will tell you.
>4) I will not jeopardize my employment or freedom.
>5) I don't know what's under Denver International Airport. Sorry.
>6) I am not in the military, and I never was.
>So thats my post.
>If you are interested, then please ask away, if not, then let this slide off. In any case, thanks.

I wish more thread OPs were like you, OPpenheimer.
Even if you don't KNOW what's under Denver International Airport, what do you THINK is under there?

New MachineGUN thread since the last one was deleted.
If we win this court case machine guns could be registrable just like SBR's and Supressors.
There are two cases against the ATF right now, the original, Hollis v. Holder and Watson v. Holder.
Court case files are viewable accessible here:

It says machine gun, but will this include SUB machine guns? I really want to trade my ps90 in for the real deal.
>>23947315
You won't win.
I hate that, and hate the reasons you won't win, and I wish you would win, but facts are facts.
This. Shall not. Pass.
>>23947332
You would be able to file your ps90 just like you would an SBR and then convert it.

Not really a sawed-off but still basically a short version of an AK.

Must be reasonable to conceal, in a firearm with available ammo.
Handgun with night sights?
Literally any pistol smaller than a deagle.
Djibouti shooty will defeat his armor because his face is uncovered.
His drum mag jammed too, giving adequate window to return fire
