Pros and cons of the p938?
>>30120033
It's literally the #1 option for a subcompact.
Pros:
Best subcompact trigger on the market
Extremely accurate
Decent capacity
6# trigger doesn't need a safety with proper holster
Factory night sights
Extremely slim
Cheap
Cons:
People will think sao requires a safety because they mexican carry
???
>>30120033
Cons:
>heavy single action trigger
>safety
>only 9mm
>cost
>field stripping and reassembling sucks
Pros:
>Night sights
>compact

I've heard it doesn't seat properly sometimes?
What made the M-16A1 such a bad weapon in Vietnam?
>>30120008
The fact that they advertised it as self cleaning, and the powder used in the ammo was sub-par. They fixed it mid war, however.
>>30120008
The guy pulling the trigger.
>>30120020
This. If you actually clean the fucking thing and don't feed it ammo it wasn't designed to take, it'll be just as reliable as any other assault rifle.
And yes, that includes the AK.
can a catapult take out an f35 with enough tension?
not unless your a predictive mathematician while it is in flight or the bird is stationary
>>30120002
Yes, but hitting it is a whole other story.
>>30120023
what if you use triple integrated banach spaces to fire decommissioned f22s at it.
Posted yesterday but couldn't get an answer. Also went to radio shack - they had no fucking idea.
Weird connector on my peltors if anyone can help me identify so I can get a adapter.
Another shot of the connector / plug.
call the company dude
with that second pic looks milspec with the copper connecters

Is there something cheap and easy that just keeps this shit off? I mean I enjoy doing it because it is very calming to have a task in front of you but christ sake if I leave for vacation for 2 weeks. This fun will look like the fucking titanic.

Grease man
>>30119673
What kind of oil are you leaving on there? Something better or thicker like greas-anon suggested.
>>30119862
Hoppe's 9 mostly. Was told this was a "cure-all" oil for cleaning,lubing, preserving. I am thinking about using it for my CC so heavy grease isn't blowing up my skirt.
Which ones any why?
None.
You don't need it unless you shoot long distance.
I don't wrap my meaty mitts all over a hot ass can, so I don't need one.
>>30119857
Why do you need it only for long distances?
I would think they would help with taking them off hot.
Does /k/ use rangefinders; or are they a meme?
Sage goes to all fields. Does /k/ use guns or are they a meme? Does /k/ buy ammo or is shooting a meme? Fuck off you cancerous noguns cunt.
>>30119524
I've never heard anyone talk about laser rangefinders, so I assumed they didn't use them.
>>30119547
If you shoot long distance and want to know how far targets are, use one. If you want to shoot long distance and get pretty good at guessing ballistics, don't use one. Everything doesn't have to be a meme and do you really think that if they didn't work there would be so many varieties and brands?

If the constitution says SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED, then whycome felons can't have guns?
>>30119367
Because you like it up the ass u fucking no guns fucking faggot.
>>30119367
why can't they vote? because they lost their citizenship
>>30119447
that's not in the bill of rights though
do felons not have the right to free speech, or to a fair trial, or to not quarter soldiers?
Looking for some advice on a general-purpose shotgun for my home.
I previous had a Remington 870, and it was great. That being said, I no longer have it :(
I'm looking for a shotgun that fulfills the following criteria:
>12 ga
>Capable of firing versatile loads
>Good for outdoors, occasionally
>Short barrel (20 ish or less) for home defense
>Workhorse (durable, simple)
>Economical...

>Mossberg 590A1
That looks damn near perfect.
Is that like a beefier version of the 500?
Thanks for the recommendation.
>>30119245
From Wikipedia:
>"Both the Model 500 and Model 590 have polymer trigger guards & safeties and standard barrels. The Model 590A1 has an aluminum trigger guard & safety, a heavier barrel, and a bayonet lug (although some versions of the 590 also have bayonet lugs), intended for military use under extreme conditions and rough handling; the metal trigger guard was added in response to the 3443G materials requirements, and the heavy barrel was added at the request of the Navy...

It's possible they won't be participating in an air-to-air combat role (perhaps only providing CAS or only in an observer type role), but this is (AFAIK) the first time they've come to Red Flag.
>>30118969
Time to warm up the shitpost machine about CAS and F-35s.
It will be interesting to see how Red a Flag works out

Can't fucking wait.

Anybody talk to themselves at the range?
Sometime's I'll whisper /say "Not so big now." or "Not so big anymore." when I make a shot on my targets.
How about you?
You got issues, OP. Wanna talk about them?
DON'T RUN!!
DON'T RUN!!
>>30118933
No, I don't have the autism to pretend I'm a character from a video game.
Why are women and low test men so incapable of getting a high grip on handguns? Let alone not being able to properly handle a pistol without tea cupping it. How do you train this stuff out of them?
>>30118649
Lack of common sense I think. Practice makes perfect.
>>30118738
That's not an answer nor an argument.
You tell them to stop doing that and show them how to hold it properly. Jeez you're fucking stupid for having to ask that.
Ruger 10/22 vs. Remington 597 vs. Marlin .22
Hello /k/ and thank you for taking the time to read this.
I'm a younger guy and newer to collecting firearms (22) and I'm looking to buy a .22 for my very humble collection.
The ones I was looking into were as follows
>10/22
>remmy 597
>marlin .22
But I am open to suggestions. I really liked the aesthetic of the tactical takedown and the tiger designed wooden stocked 10/22

I've read that the 597s have a lot of feeding issues and reliability issues but once you install $60~ of aftermarket parts they are easily the highest performing magazine fed .22 rifles on the market. I'm not sure how accurate this statement is tho. ~ OP
CZ 452 or 455
>>30118694
Can you explain? I'm really wanting some facts about the firearm if possible. This thread is to compliment my own research so any advice and shared knowledge is greatly appreciated.
This beauty is a Colombian 9mm pistol.
I'm trying to find out more about it, it's somewhat new, but it looks like a dream.
From what I've seen, MSRP is around $1300.00
>>30118534
I just read somewhere else that this goes for around $500 USD, not $1300.00.
>>30118534
Reminds me of a mix between a PX4 and a Walther
