Is it legal to shoot down planes that fly through somebodies personal airspace? Do stand your ground laws apply to this?
>they will never bring back large caliber AAA
~____~
>>29566653
I remember some hicks shot down small drones with cameras flying over their property and they were completely legal in doing so.
>>29566653
If you own a large enough property and are sure that your rounds are not going to endanger someone else, yeah.
Anyone shoot competitions?
I dont want to three gun. I only own a glock brand glock at the moment.
I know little to nothing about these things. Educate me
>>29566605
I shoot trap and skeet? Does that count? Not competition of course just for fun.
>>29566605

That was easy shiet nigger.
Okay /k/, Our Glorious Leader in Illinois has graciously granted me the privallage of owning firearms. So I come to you with questions as someone who's never owner a firearm before.
What's a good rifle to learn proper technique with? Something I can go plinking with?
Are Nagants worth it? All the threads about them on here makes me want to get one.
Where would one start building an AR-15? Is there a guide on how to pick parts?
Any other tips for fledging in the world of forearms would be appreciated.
>>29566393
>Are Nagants worth it? All the threads about them on here makes me want to get one.
It's an old bolt action rifle that may or may not shoot well. Don't expect anything more.
I highly suggest just getting an AR15 to start since you live in the USA. 5.56 is absolutely nothing recoil wise so you should not develop a flinch at all.
>>29566432
I know a lot of people build AR-15s, should I just buy one off the shelf to start with?
if you live in chicago then give up desu.
nagants are good, not as cheap as they used to be, but a good starting point and still the best price for rifle¢s per round despite what the memesayers tell you.
ar15's are best started with a lower and a lower parts kit. you can go as cheap as you want on those two because they dont take any of the pressure really. the upper, bolt, and barrel are what matter (and the trigger but that can be a later upgrade).
if youve never shot before start with a 22.
How often and when do soldiers get to wield medium machine guns like the M240 or PKM?
>>29566390
You should look into modern infantry units and weapons
>>29566390
Whenever they are manning a nest, bunker, or tower with one and something good/bad happens causing them to either advance forward/retreat back
doesn't every squad have a few machine gunners ? like 1 per fireteam or something like that?
/k/ if a sub-species of human was discovered alive and with a over a billion in population that turned out to be an aggressive blood thirsty man eater. Would you hunt it? What would you use to hunt it?
>Well what determines a sub-species of human?
For the sake of argument, a vampire; but without supernatural shit. However does have immense strength and obvious ways to kill it is decapitating the head or burning it alive or stabbing its heart. Its like a regular human except more so primal and caveman like.
>>29566273
an AR15
50 Beowulf AR with a bayonet
>>29566273
>What would you use to hunt it?
I would introduce this terror to the wrath of the Emperor, and of saint Kalashnikov.
Why isn't our weaponry kept secret? I'm looking at the ASW drone ship thread and it seems this is the kinda shit we'd want to hide from our enemies right?
Yet with cursory searching you can find the exact specifications, armaments, details, flaws, weaknesses and strengths of some of our most expensive weapons/vehicles. Its like trying to play poker with your hand shown, idgi.
pic semi related, you can see details on how our experimental weapons are supposed to operate and its the first thing on google. doesn't this violate some kind of opsec thing?
>>29566238
that's already all common knowlege, that's like saying that you should keep math and geograpy a national secret
Think about how long the F-117 and B-2 were kept under wraps. Assume there's some shit they're not telling us.
The more the enemy knows, the more scareder they'll be
I'm at four and will get more as soon as finances permit.

Hey Canadians I just turned 19 today and I was wondering how easy is it to get a gun here? I don't have any mental illnesses or criminal record. How much would I pay for a decent weapon and the license?
Thanks in advance.
>>29566118
Just when I thought I couldn't like Milo more, a fucking 686.
Might depend on your province
It's pretty easy
Just go to a local gun place, hunting, fishing store, whatever. Ask if they offer licenses
It'll be a small amount of money, I paid $130 for PAL and $90 for RPAL.
A weekend at a course, with a bit of hands on with deactivated firearms. Really easy
Then it's just a bit of paperwork and some waiting

I live in Ontario Toronto. Any problem with that?
Not everyone should own a gun. Owning a gun requires you to not be a fucking idiot, and obviously this is beyond most people. So stop trying to put guns into the hands of your friends and family.
at least you tried.
>>29566068
Not everyone should get to vote either. Why is my vote worth as much as someone who has far more education like a physician? Why is some dumb nigger who didn't graduate high school allowed a vote as worthless as mine? Rights =/= privileges. Now someone who doesn't feel comfortable owning a firearm shouldn't be forced to. And if someone IS going to then they should probably at least take an NRA first steps class but it shouldn't be a requirement for ownership.
TL;DR: Fuck off the more people educated about guns and how to use them safely the better. Even a tard can be taught the stove is hot.
>>29566068
im ok with people that dont want to own guns. the issue arises when that respect for individual choice isnt reciprocated.
Googling best Pistol manufacturers will usually get you lists with Glock, Sig, HK, Colt, and Smith and Wesson as the top five.
Walther is usually in the bottom five-10 slot.
Which, to me, is fucking criminal.
The more I think about it, Walther is the most underappreciated Pistol maker in existence.
>P38-first double single action Pistol
>ppk-possibly the most iconic carry gun of all time. Dated, but still a viable choice 50 years later.
>p99-first polymer gun...

innovation isn't the same as durability and functionality
>>29565959
I think the only real problem here is your reliance on a google search to determine manufacturer rankings.
>>29565980
This.
Just because they did it first doesn't mean they do it the best. However I do feel that walther is underappriciated
When did people lose their sense of class and start storing their guns in unsightly metal cubes lacking any sense of style?
I come from an era where a man was proud of his guns and enjoyed having them on display in his mancave alongside his other trophies. My friends and I sit around my bar, drinking homemade craft brews and aged single malt scotch, smoking cigars and trading stories about trophy fucks. Not drinking hipster shit trying to feel tacticool.
Where has all the class gone?
>When did people lose their sense of class and start storing their guns in unsightly metal cubes lacking any sense of style?
About the same time little Johnny decided it was a good idea to take Dad's gun to school and blast his mates in their brains.

Scope brand scope for when you want to scope what you're scoping you can scope your scope while you scope. Scope!
