What's the point behind Short Barreled Rifles? Don't you lose tons of energy with a short barrel? Would a SMG or PDW be a better option if you wanted a CQB type weapon?
An SBR'd carbine will still be ballistically superior to both PDWs and SMGs.
Calibers like 5.56 and .308 will lose their edge out of short barrels, but other calibers like 7.62x39 and 300BLK do exceptionally well out of them. It's worth noting that there are loads that still do very well even in 5.56 SBR, so the benefits outweigh the detriments.
What you REALLY want in an SBR platform is an SBR bullpup, which retains quite a bit of barrel while being shorter than a traditional SBR ever could be.
MK18 variants are used extensively by Special Operations because they are lightweight, deliver a harder punch than a SMG or PDW ever could and can be suppressed without being super unwieldy.

What's with the DBAL being mounted so far back? Why wouldn't it be far forward?
Can we have a sight/scope POV thread?
I pulled it out just for you. Really hard to get a pix through this thing.

Giving pops a Mini 14 Ranch Rifle for Father's Day.
What are some sensible accessories to include with it?
What is /k/ getting their fathers?
>>30255706
A good scope and some Ruger mags. A cleaning kit. A three-piece leather sling. The usual.
>>30255732
>A three-piece leather sling
excellent idea! thanks! I was a bit unsure what direction to go with the sling.
>>30255785
Better yet, get one of these fucks. It's like a Ching sling but it doesn't need an additional sling swivel

New to guns here, thinking about a dedicated trunk gun for my car. What's the role of a trunk gun to you and what sort of guns do the "trunk gun" role best?
I was offered a CETME FR-8, and thought it may fill the role nicely.
A gun that I can get in case the handgun I carry on myself is not sufficient and I am driving through some place where I'm likely to encounter more than someone trying to hold me up for some pesos
Something like an MP5 or another subgun
i have an m14 as my trunk gun

His name is Boatswain
>>30255339

That's actually kind of cool.
Can he swim yet?
>>30255339
That's fucking neat
Hey /k/ is the yugo sks or sks in general worth it?
>>30255296
worth $300 or $400 these days, and worth your time.
U>>30255296
I currently have over 50 stored in 10 count crates with all the fixins. Two crates have consecutive serials. I like them for novelty.
>>30255296
I'd say go for it, Yugoslavia weapons are pretty based.

Put that shit together.

You with 2/9?
Does anyone here CC a full-sized handgun regularly? Is there anything wrong with doing so?
>>30254916
Yup. Full size 1911
You're going to print harder than the New York Post printed anti bush covers
But it's doable
>>30254916
Does anyone here CC a full-sized handgun regularly?
yes
Is there anything wrong with doing so?
you need a good holster, a good belt, and the right clothes
Why is Glock the popular choice for rampage shooters /k/?
Why carry an ordinary handgun when you can also carry an explosive?
>>30254837
>Reliable
>Economical
Same reason it's used by so many regular shooters.
Reliability, price and brand recognition.
Any Wyoming /k/ommandos here? Might be moving from Texas to the Lovell area next year.
Looking for a gun friendly state where I can own land.
Is the Lovell area good for a /k/ommando who likes hunting in the mountains and long wilderness hikes with their raifu?
Also Wyoming thread I guess.
>>30254495
Shithole terrible state that literally no one lives in (those who do are annoying and worthless) and the Wind (capital w is necessary) *never* stops blowing.
Visit the state for the national parks and places like Jackson's Hole, but don't live there.
>>30254765
OP. What we have here is a faggot who imagined that he was being oppressed in Wyoming and moved down to Colorado.
This is a very common thing.
Lived in Wyoming 20 sum years. Everywhere sucks, Wyoming sucks less. The wind is awful and it's fucking cold. It's also pretty libertarian and gun friendly.

>Any Wyoming /k/ommandos here?
I wish. I live in Commyrado and can't wait to move to the land of sanity once I retire.
As a Florida resident I have to deal with the whole "no guns where alcoholic beverages are served. I have a CCW and blatantly ignore this law for obvious reasons. I've been completely smashed hundreds of times and guess what, I've never shot my firearm.
Had one of these fags drawn their weapon, legal aside from being in a place that serves alcohol, and ended the massacre what penalties do you think would have been imposed? What legal ramifications would have developed?
>>30254220
What does FL law say about carrying while intoxicated?
>>30254220
>what penalties do you think would have been imposed? What legal ramifications would have developed?
Depends if anyone innocent bystanders were shot or not. If no one was injured, people would look the other way. If someone was injured, prepare to be charge and also sued. Would probably have a ZimZam situation though, where people donate to the cause. Fags from all over the US would just give you money for your legal defense, etc.
>>30254248
Zero tolerance. If you've drank outside of your home you can't carry. Zero firearms in establishments that serve alcohol.
I disregard this law nightly, as I assume people with intent to harm will not follow the law either.
Hey /k/, lets get a hunting weapons general going.
Is the Howa hogue a good rifle for north american hunting? If so what is my best bet for a caliber that will be the most versatile without breaking the bank at the range?
>>30254215
Are you talking about the version that comes with a scope, bipod, and 10 round magazine ?
>>30254288
This one
http://www.legacysports.com/hogue-gameking-package
It comes with a scope but no bipod or ten round mag
>>30254215
Howas are great rifles. they're like a Remington 700 only with much better quality control and finishing
new to AR15s here
should i buy a registrable lower, or go the ghost lower route?
Idk... do you have the equipment to mill out a lower?
If not buy a lower
>>30254389
>equipment
>doesn't know that 80% lowers come with jigs
>any fool can mill it out
>>30254794
You'd be shocked at what morons can't do.
