Why does the internet hate shotguns with pistol grip stocks so much?
>>30105025
I don't
>>30105025
Try firing from the hip.
Because fudds don't find it "sporting."
Ever since I saw photo's of the ATF's reference collection, I've wanted to work there. Imagine getting to handle and shoot anything you want every work day.
How do I actually go about enlisting to specifically work there?
start shooting dogs
once you hit 500 recruiters show up at your door

ATF are for losers who couldn't get into the FBI.

If you had actually read my post, you'll see that I don't give two fucks about wanting to do police work
Hello /k/ I need your advice today. I'm shipping off to basic training soon and, unfortunately, I won't be able to take my guns with me. After basic I don't really feel like dealing with the headache of storing them in the armory. I'm going to store them at my parents place. My parents are not big gun people and probably wouldn't maintain them even if I asked. What is the best way to store a firearm for several years sans maintenance?
gun safe? don't tell them the code. expensive tho
>>30104994
I can just leave them in a safe for a few years and they'll be fine? I'm just worried about rust or the oil gunking up. They in all probability won't be even looked at until I get out.

>Unpopular opinions about Women in LE/Military
>(Part 1 of 2)
I honestly think women in law enforcement or military roles are in the same exact situation blacks were in before Truman desegregated the Armed Forces via E.O. 9981 in 1948.
In WW2 and even before, we used blacks and minorities mostly in supply/logistics, and combat arms support roles.
>The military establishment supported this via bullshit studies saying black were colorblind at night, or that they were more susceptible to fear so they wouldn't be able to hold bearing during combat, etc.
>However, we all know that this^ was bullshit, especially since limited front line units that saw action during WW2 and wars before performed similarly to the whites (Tuskegee airmen, 92nd infantry div., Buffalo Soldiers 10th Cav., 54th Mass. Infantry, etc.)
I will admit that in the 50's, we went through some major growing pains with integration. Many highly skilled officers and NCO's were against this so either they got out or were defiant, which means the military had to wait 10-15yrs for them to be phased out.
But by the time the Vietnam started up (17yrs later), literally nobody really cared about blacks or minorities being in the same unit so as long as they meet the standards and performed their duties as expected.
If you compare this to today, it's almost identical with various "Studies" that may or may not be fair saying that Combat units who have integrated women into their units, who have indeed passed the training standards are considered inferior to all male units which honestly is to be expected as the integrated unit of course has a lower percentage of actual experience due to new females bringing down the average versus all male units who have higher percentage of combat experience since we've been at war for the past 10 years.
>>30104854
>(Part 2 of 2)
This would be happen regardless of gender as every military minded person knows a units success is determined by...
>Training (Knowledge/Skills)
>Assets (Weapons)
>Experience (combat and years of training)
If the first two are equal, which they would be in any study US armed forces conducted, then of course the unit with higher percentage of collective experience will perform superior until such time that women acquire years of training and combat experience to restore the average.
Lastly, I'm not saying that women should be perfectly 50% representation in the Armed Forces, that's silly especially since quota systems are dangerous as all hell. We really should disregard percentage representation, even if you look at Armed Forces ethnic demographics, they are still hella skewed compared to US Citizens demographics.
>Ethnic minorities of any kind really aren't Officers
>Blacks make up nearly 30% of the Army despite being ~14% of the US
>Asians don't serve
>Why the hell does the USMC look like a Latin American country's Marine force?
However, women should have a right to serve and try for any role, including combat roles, same as men with equal and fair standards that men must meet for that role, doesn't matter if its 1% or 25% representation. People should be glad that any amount of women volunteer to serve.
I think mandatory military service should also apply to women.

Redoing an old thread. What a lack of OC we have.
Enjoy 300 replies and raping the board with your bullshit.
Are there any metal non-polymer pocket pistols with 9+1 or 10+1 capacity? (Can't be more than 10 in my state)
Doesn't matter if it's 9mm, 380, or 22.
>>30104776
P239 is probably as good as it's going to get. It's pretty big for an 8+1 though. Also has extended 10 round mags.
>>3010480
Seconding the p239

/k/ shares tips on self-defense shooting so you don't accidentally put yourself in jail like this Pharmacist.

How about "no executions" (?).
>>30104541
Fucking niggers. Should've given this guy a medal.
>>30104541
Our justice system is fucked. The little nigglet that died lost his right to life when he first attempted to murder the pharmacist. This man should be praised as a hero, not prosecuted.
Is this a good idea, /k/?
>>30104506
Are those mortar shells converted into RPG rounds?
>>30104580
It looks like they cut RPG rounds in half and put the rocket motor onto mortar shells.
>>30104506
Eh, I've seen Rebels and Ukrainians use them but I don't see what's wrong with them.
Hello /k/ do you guys know any good visual novels or novels in general about war, apocalypse or something like that im looking for some new reading material since im going on a long ass trip
Shooter by Jack Coughlin
>>30104502
Where do i find it
Anything by Robert Heinlein. Starship Troopers in particular is good.
The movie sucked ass.
/k/ I'm looking for a .22 pistol to plink with. I'm short on cash and want to make it a bit cheaper to shoot.
I'm looking at pic related as an option. Bud's guns has them for 130$ and with an FFL transfer that's around $160 which is about the cheapest option. I've also looked at the Buckmarks, Ruger Sr22, Beretta u22 Neos, and others. I could save up and buy something like the ruger but it will be a while before I can get it and I'm still looking at about $330 for that.
Halp me /k/. Should I buy the cheap wheel gun or save up for a superior semi auto?
Bonus: My girlfriend is left-handed and shoots with me. The Sr22 felt nice in my hand, is compact enough to be a glovebox gun, and has ambidextrous safeties so my gf can shoot. So I'm leaning towards saving up but I don't know much about any of these.
sr22 slide is made of cheap aluminum, and the steel slide lock over time eats away at thr slide and it stops working.
literally had to throw mine away. get a wheel gun instead imo
>>30104457
What about the beretta? Or a S&W?
>>30104457
roughriders have shitty longevity too since the frame is some alloy bullshit
dont get me wrong you will certainly get 150 dollars of use from it but by 10-15k mark its worn out and will shoot loose constantly
fun as fuck though
if you want something fun that will last like 5 years roughriders adequate. if you want something to pass down buy a single six or single 10
buy the version with real sights
What if the atomic bomb was never developed by the US, or it was delayed? How would Operation Downfall realistically play out?

Any grander insights for us?
Japan never wanted war in the first place and would have been willing to admit defeat at basically any point
The post war agenda was for a duo-polar world however, and so they have to drag wars out and destroy germany/japan/china/whatever
Would Cheerio dust make a good explosive?
Under the right circumstances, dust explosions are a bitch.

Found my old drawing book from when I was a kid, figured I'd post some because why not? I look into the mind of a /k/ child.
Illinoisfag here and I just got my FOID card and can now legally buy guns but I don't know what to buy first
A little about me
>5'6" inb4manlet
>180 dad bod according to this girl I know
>I guess I have medium hands, not small but not nigger huge
>don't want something over $350 just because I also have to pay for ffl and transfer fees
i was thinking of getting a .357 but the good ones are around $450 and up. I also thought about a yugo m57 but it's sold out everywhere online and I thought about a mak but dick grips and the cartridge price for all three is more than I'd prefer. Bonus points if you can find a nice sized revolver with a good cartridge
Also Illinois thread

Save up a bit and get something good, mang. I know waiting sucks, but if you get a piece of shit you won't be happy.
Also, representing the 217 here.
>>30104167
I know but that's why I have my price limit at 350 because I also plan on buying a small safe and ammo along with the gun. Also I've seen a lot of guns for around 350 I just don't know if they are good. 708 here btw

Cheaper alterintives to Ruger Gunsite scout?

Savage Scout
>>30103998
I was anxious after buying my gunsite scout that I spent to much money. After putting a burris 2-7x scout scope on it I have a new favorite fun. I know the price has gone up by $50 over the past year, but it should still be worth the money, IMHO
