I fell for the meme /k/
I'm sorry.
I don't really get why people still buy ACOGs. There's so many better alternatives nowadays.
I know nothing of scopes - what's wrong with the picture?
>>30402137
I have one and so does my gf, no complaints. What's the issue?
How the fuck do we fix this piece of shit? Other than the air force's commercial pilot design, there's not an uglier uniform in the military.

Black pants, unisex headwear, no skirt option for women.

WW2 OD dress uniforms.
Sam Browne belts for everyone.
black all leather boots instead of oxford shoes.
airborne qualified can wear jump boots.
tankers get tanker boots.
cav get to wear spurs and stetson
peaked caps for officers.
Kepi for enlisted(think French Foreign Legion, not US Civil War). First Sgts, CSM, SMA get special embroidery on theirs.

The Fulton offering is a fucking abortion.

That's right goy, you should rent a tractor and 6 negroes if you're going to bury your Bentley.
Were European swords actually superior to Japanese swords of the same time, or is that just a meme?
Pic somewhat related
Self Bump. This is constantly spouted and I need an official answer.
What time period are you talking about?
Swords have been around in both places for hundreds of years
Japanese steel was shit, so European swords were definetly better.
How do Coast Guard DOG (MSRT, MSST, TACLET, PSU) operators compare in skill level and competence to operators in other branches? How often do these guys see combat and where outside of the Western Hemisphere are these guys most likely operating these days?
Interested in getting into the body armor game before Congress gets a hair up their ass to ban it. Not interested in AR500, but what's the best stuff I can get for ceramics (or other strong lightweight plates)? What about the best ceramics on a budget?
How about the vests? Are plate carriers the way to go? Who's recommended for those?

Yeah, no way a super simple rifle with cheap ammo is a good beginner good, no way. My beginner gun was a SCAR-L.

Isn't this a special kind of unconstitutional?
Jesus Christ Hawaii, if you don't want to be a part of America just fucking secede already.
Scrapping the 5th Amendment to attack the 2nd and calling it common sense. Fuck these traitors.

Brilliant!
Hey guys, I had a thought and I was curious what you all would think.
Would you support universal background checks on all firearm purchases IF:
Concealed Carry licenses were shall-issue in all 50 states and could be substituted for doing form 4473s - meaning you could buy from someone privately in a parking lot if you showed the seller a concealed carry license, since it is in effect a license that says "I have been background checked within this time frame."
Bonus twist: Why not be able to ship firearms purchased online to the address on your conceal...

So basically a drivers license, but to purchase firearms, conceal and ship firearms?
>>30397916
How do you feel about Due Process? Say I get a hit on my name because another person with the same common Irish name is a IRA member.. I want to be notified why I am on the list and a court hearing to get off said list.
>>30397934
How do you feel about reading the thread? The no fly list has not been mentioned.
>>30397933
Basically, but it would be optional. If you don't want to carry or shortcut the traditional dealer process you can still do the regular process, minus legal unregulated private sales.
I'm sorry if this has been discussed to death a million times. It's been a while since I've been on /k/.
But this has been on my mind since Obama became president and it refers to the panic buyers.
>"We need to buy up the ammo while we can!"
"Ok, so, you want to make sure you have ammo now before it gets banned, is that right?"

"So you want to buy ammo, now, that you think is the most likely to be regulated or become scarce...

It's called capitalism
You missed something.
The panic buying of 22lr started with the preppers who think/thought that 22lr would be the most valuable ammo in a prepping situation.
It is light. Can kill small game, and is in wide use. And cant be easily reloaded. It is useful
So they came up with a genius idea. 22Lr is the currency of the post (insert apocalypse of your choice) medium of exchange .
So they started buying.
But people like to shoot 22lr. So when it was sold out at walmart./lgs they bought at inflated prices .
People see that their budy...

people hoard .22 because its easier to buy in bulk, can be used to hunt small game like squirrel, and is a good plinking round for when all the 5.56 dries up during every panic/election.
no one thinks .22 is getting banned.
Anyone want to get an NFA bread going? Form 1 stamp just got approved on this thing. Now I need to gather the dosh for a Dead Air Ghost M and get that form 4 going.
What would it legally take to make MGs as available as AR-15s in the USA?
Also don't complain, at least you can have nice stuff. Europoor here, NFA items are banned for sporting purposes by the federal government here "because they kill more people faster and because I said so".
>>30396964
Removal of the 1986 Hughes amendment to the NFA, which closed MG registry.
>>30396972
Basically this, or in other words ain't fucking happening. The sad part is, if you study the data on NFA items used to commit crimes the numbers are very low. I guess those of us willing and able to pay taxes for sbr/sbs/cans/etc are actually more responsible (statically) than most. But yet we have to jump through countless hoops and pages of paperwork just so we can keep being law abiding citizens.
Is there a complete list of /k/ approved instructors?
>>30394362
The only approved instructor.

dunno I think Ayoob is retired which is the first guy that pops into my head. McNamara is the real deal from what I've heard.
To avoid hazmat fees ship powder in plastic .50 BMG cases and sell it as blanks
also ship shortened .25 ACP 'blanks' which are pretty much just case heads with a very lightly secured primer in boxes of 1000.
>>30393639
ok smartass
packaging cost vs hazmat fees
>>30393649
This is why I said stupid idea thread. obviously it'll cost more in startup and probably well into actually selling it.

Maybe if you made some kind of bizarro wildcat.
Somebody neck down a can of powder to .50 and figure out a way to prime it.
