There is literally nothing wrong with using .22 for home defense
>>29816428
I mean, I guess making him laugh himself to death could work...
>>29816428
I agree, it's not loud so it won't cause too much of a disturbance, and a few shots will neutralize a threat
>>29816428
I agree
Why the fuck is this so hard to open?
>>29816350
It shouldnt be, are you using your hands?
>>29816350
It's childproof.
Are you a child, OP?
>>29816350
You must first gain it's trust. It will not open for any random person anon, you must live with it and teach it that you care about it. Show it some love and it will love you back.
my store is selling them for $55+9.6% sale tax.
That's not a bad price, cheaper probably than buying online and paying shipping+ffl. I bought 6 for $40 online, $20 to ship, then $70 for the transfer fee ($20 for first, $10 for each one after).
Came out to like $56 a lower.
I built one just fine, biggest complaint is the massive rollmark, the fire/safe is written in a childishly large size, and the finish isnt a smooth abodized black, its a rougher dark grey and doesnt match any of my uppers.
However, functionally they are perfect and I had no trouble building mine
there not bad. i just finished a lower build with one. no issues
>>29816269
>doesn't even have the 4th hole
They dun fucked up, that's why they're so cheap.
Would the British Army grant me "operator" status?
I just want to learn how to shoot weapons, fight, live off the land, evade people hunting me, get fit, learn hand to hand combat, become extremely mentally tough and be an all-round operator.
>I just want to learn how to shoot weapons, fight, live off the land, evade people hunting me, get fit, learn hand to hand combat, become extremely mentally tough and be an all-round operator.
Well I'll tell you right now OP you're in the wrong place
>guard didn't say "for you"
>>29816202
there are certainly oppurtunities to do all that in both the army and the royal marines. whether or not you are capable of exploiting those oppurtunities is another matter. you won't know until you try so go and talk to a recruiter.
you're looking at infantry, from which you're either going into recce or sf. i hope you're fit and like carrying a pack all damned day.
Why didn't you join the Cavalry, /k/?
What's wrong with you, not wanting to be apart of the greatest branch of any army this world has given host to?
>>29816188
>$23 per month!
Is that a lot or naw? I spend more on dinner in a single day.
>>29816547
Inflation puts it at about $35 a day, back then they had much less things to buy though.
>>29816547
Inflation....
637 and change, roughly. Back then 5 dollars for a 60 hour week was pretty common.

context?
Just picked up my Shield and I took it apart and noticed that there seems to be what I think is rust on the barrel. It may be copper fouling but when I wiped it down with ballistol with a boresnake and some patches, it wasn't green.
Did I just get played?
>>29815556
>he fell for the S&W polymer gun meme
>>29815567
I'm afraid I got memed on. At least I didn't get the one with the thumb safety
>>29815556
>>29815579
I picked up my Shield today as well. I live in CA, so thumb safety is mandatory, but I don't find it a hindrance like the memelord you seem to be. Also why did you not completely inspect the gun before agreeing to purchase it?

What do you guys think? does this along with Ian's mud test blow away the "AK is the most reliable rifle ever" meme?
>inb4 muh loose tolerances
>inb4 not true Russian Kalashnikov
>>29815543
Damn, he straight up murderized that wall. That's cold yo. Wall is just there giving you cover and you shoot it in the back.
>>29815604
To be fair he is a Bong and has probably never even heald a rifle before joining the YPG.
>britsh
>fighting for muslims
seems right
Thinking about getting one from AIM Surplus as a first handgun. In the meantime, post Based Browning's best design
Also 1911s welcome too, especially odd looking ones
anyone who has used both, if given the option to pick one or the other, would you rather go with Browning HP or CZ-75, and why?
>>29815650
Welp, this should send the thread straight into the toilet.
>>29815500
Hi Powers are great, they have the ergonomics of a brick, but a sexy brick.
Without knowing anything about California, is this an accurate representation of gun freedumbs per county
Is this for CC only? I got my pistol no problems via private party transfer in San Diego. If this is for CC, it's news to me. I thought that all California was commiefornia.
>>29815515
Most of California is rural farmland. All the libcucks congregate to their cities
>>29815515
Its for CCW only, and its out of date at that.
Theres a lot of really conservative people in CA, but liberals rule it by far.
Hello /k/,
What games depict LMG belts realistically? As in if you have 4 rounds left, there will only be 4 rounds left on the belt in your gun. A lot of games neglect to do this nowadays but I think its a really cool feature that more games should have.
I figured this would be a better place to ask this rather than the cancer that is /v/
Pic related is Insurgency, fantastic game for mostly realistic infantry combat, plus workshop support.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Metro: Last Light does.
The Azbats heavy shotgun which is belt-fed.
>>29815404
I remember that thing was a beast in 2033. I've yet to pick up last light though, is it any good?
>>29815451
Pretty good. I recommend getting it when it goes on sale for $5 like it usually does.
Excluding ar15, what gun has the most aftermarket?
>AK
>Glock
>1911
>ruger 10/22
>mossberg 500/590
>>29815304
Looks like you answered your own question.
>YouPlayedYourself.gif
>>29815304
You kind of just nailed it.
If magpul isn't making something for it...then it's not owned by at least 4/5 gun owners.
>>29815304
I'd fuck that robot.
In this thread I will post my (hasty) translation of a recent article by a (notorious) newspaper:
http://www.ilfattoquotidiano.it/2015/04/05/treviso-boom-iscritti-poligono-assente-inutile-chiamare-polizia/1567598/
Please don't eat me alive. The article is biased as fuck. But it is also interesting because many people on /k/ ask what's the shooting scene in Italy.
I am not knowledgeable of gun laws, but things are pretty straightforward: aside from taking a course, paying for a licence, and getting a background check, if I remember correctly you can pretty much purchase what you want.
There is a distinction between owning a weapon (at home or in the wereabouts), carrying it (e.g. if you go hunting) and bearing it (e.g. if you are a security guard).
If you have questions, I can help you with some translations, but please understand I have little knowledge of the law so I will limit myself to Google, Wikipedia and some websites.
After posting the translation of the article I will post my comment on what's interesting and what's wrong about it.
Every contribution is welcome.

>The list is 8 pages long: in it you find the retired man, the unemployed one, the architect and the Regional public servant, the fishermen, the geologist, the chemist, and even the Councilman. All of them are lined up to shoot. Or, rather, to learn how to, get themselves a licence and rush to shop for the best weapon. Above all: handguns. Usually 9 Cal. That's now an everyday thing in Treviso. No shame but, actually, plenty of pride. "The State is absent -- tells us the Secretary of the Shooting Range -- it is also useless to call for the Gendramerie: when they show up, it is already too late". This is not a critique in itself, but the acknowledgment of powerlessness [on behalf of the authorities]. "Downtown there are only up to 4 Panthers [= Gendarmerie's cars], do you think it's enough?" He leaves with a sigh.
>>29815302

>So here's why the list grows day by day. Almost 2,000 enrollments at the via Fonderi Range, with a 30% subscription spike in the past months. Among the newcomers, up to 249 retirees, but also 8 pastry-makers and nine bakers. Many young people. Look at the "student" category: the disturbing number is 691; among them, 47 female students. Indeed, women. "Females are a category that is exponentially growing -- explains Lucio Zorzo, the president of one of the most ancient Italian shooting ranges --: in the past months many housewives enrolled, and even some mothers. They say they want to protect their kids and feel discriminated against". The explanation is always the same: security [safety?]. Not just shopkeepers, but also notable Venetian entrepreneurs and politicians. "These people -- explains Zorzo -- come over, but with discretion". After all, it is better not to be seen. "Quite often we open the range just for them. Two days ago we had a Regional public servant". At the shooting range, that's what they say: if the politics has been armed for years, it is civil society that has recently opted for self defense. "Almost nobody -- the secretary explains -- will ever use these weapons [for self defense]. But it is the ability to keep one at home that conveys a sense of safety". Many of these are retired men. "They tell us: we spend a lot of time alone, at home". 30% more in few months. "Among those who subscribe to our courses, the 90% later purchases a weapon".
>>29815317

>At the shooting range Cal 22 is used, the smallest one. Later on, however, anybody is free to buy the weapon they like. The price of a license is just 155 Euros. This scenario makes sellers rejoice. The Visentin shop in via dei Da Prata has opened just 3 months ago. "We sell a lot -- tells us Giorgio -- we've had at least a hundred requests". Best-selling weapons? "Handguns above all" and that's okay. Top2 is "the shotgun" because "it is very precise". Nobody doubts it, of course. The reason for such a purchase is always the same: security. What worries is that, by looking at the list of subscribers, there aren't just the types of citizens that are mostly at risk [e.g. because of their job], but basically everyone. Let's make an example: interior designer and painters, 42 teachers, 3 musicians and 3 psychologists. This would suffice to understand that here in Treviso, between Preganziol and Frescada, where once Fekuce Maniero and the Brenta gang ruled, people -- either correctly or not -- feel beseiged. [Brenta gang was the local "mafia", dismantled by the police about 20 years ago] Either with the Lega or without the Lega [Lega = notorious xenophobist federalist party]. In the whereabouts, the memories of the former 'cow-boy' mayor Giancarlo Gentilini are still vivid. Was he better [than the current one]? Well, nobody here in via Fonderia responds, but they all smile. Instead, the current mayor, Giovanni Manildo, explains: "The 30% spike is certainly alarming, but self-defense is not a solution; it is necessary for security to have citizen participation, but under the form of cooperating with public service. After all, Treviso is considered top4 safest city in Italy".
Hey /k/, has anyone ever rewired their DH-132 Helmet liner? I want to rewire it to standard 3.5mm jacks so I can look like a lunatic while answering phone calls in a school zone. Is that even possible? And if it is, would only the earphones work?
Bamp
>>29815283
not a weapon faggot
Standard 3.5mm jacks that include mic are common ground, mic/left/right positive. You'd need a jack and a pinout.
I also have my doubts of a 3.5mm capable device driving the headset without an amplifier.
