Hey /k/,
I just turned 21 in New York, in Erie county. I'm looking to apply for my pistol permit (and hopefully soon after that, my CCP) and purchase my first pistol.
My question to you guys is, what do you find is a good CC pistol for a guy about 6' 0" with medium-large hands? Do you prefer any particular style, or caliber? What are some good pistols for CC, and for getting into handling semi-auto pistols? On the application for my county, it says that if I am approved, that I need to purchase a pistol. Should I wait to apply until I have enough...

How fat are you?
This is relevant.
>>29502068
I'm just about 220 lbs, a bit chubby but nothing ridiculous. Trying to muscle up a bit but for now, assume about a 36 inch waist.
>>29502058
>what is a good CC pistol
that depends more on how you dress than how tall you are or how big your hands are.
do you want to carry in your pocket, inside or outside the waistband, in a shoulder rig, ankle, or something else?

I'm looking for practical and good looking hoodies or shirts or light jackets for summer.
Anyone got suggestions? Good brands?

Been looking, well priced! any good?
Battle Rifles aren't obsolete, we just call them "designated marksman rifles" now.
Yes, the assault rifle concept is proven and correct. But every squad still needs at least one guy with a BR/DMR.

DMR =/= Battle Rifle

They can be, but they aren't necessarily so.

Okay so believe it or not I am designing characters for a game.
The game takes place in 2020 in a global collapse scenario, one of the factions emergent after the collapse are the American Patriotic Front and are a group of disenfranchised militia and former military.
For the "grunts" we will have a sort of standard uniform. Maybe real tree or woodland BDU. Many will also wear jeans and plain shirts. It will be based off the civilian turned guerilla fighters you see in the IRA and in the Middle east.
I was thinking about what chest rig and equipment...

Sure.

Why not ARs? They're underneath every rock in the US.
Another thing would be lots of bolt action rifles in wood furniture and shotguns, which you did mention. Even if someone doesn't have an AR, if they live in an even somewhat rural area, chances are they or their neighbor has a fudd gun for durr hunting.

>Okay so believe it or not I am designing characters for a game.
ive been doing that shit for ages now, nobody's impressed.
Are these worth a shit as a poorfag CCW? LGS/gunsmith (who won't stock things if he thinks they're trash generally because he doesn't like doing warranty work) had one for $295 and it SEEMS like what I'm looking for in a CCW. I have several full-size handguns but nothing suitable for carrying concealed.
>my hands are hueg and it fills my grip better than most small guns
>good pricepoint for poorfag
>trigger felt pretty smooth dry-firing, DAO though so seems like that might make it hard to hit things
>didn't feel cheap at all
>10+1 capacity
Most other guns I've looked at in that size category/price range either feel like cheap shit or are solid but unpleasant to shoot because of big hands (Makarovs, for instance).
Any experience with these, /k/? Talk me out of or into buying this.
>>29501526
I like them and I like all the pretty colors they come in
>8/10 from me
>>29501526
If you intend to buy it and never shoot it, then it may be fine. If you intend to shoot it at all, which you should be doing to become proficient with it, then it is likely to give you problems. Do a bit of homework yourself, but I have read many reports of constant jamming, frames cracking, guiderods breaking, and all other manner of other problems that are characteristic of cheap guns.
For the $200 that they go for online, the SCCY may seem like a good deal, but if you're purely interested in a CCW,...

What can you tell me about the future of non-lethal weapons ?

They'll be pretty non-lethal

I'm failing badly in my PhD studies and I'm thinking of enlisting in the military instead. Two years in, not one paper related to my thesis, I don't even find the topic interesting anymore and my advisors don't cared either if they ever did, not more than just for padding their resumes with more papers. Thinking of enlisting in either the US Army or US Marines. Although I have a college degree I can't go in as an officer since I'm not a US citizen, but with permanent residency I can at least enlist. I've been preparing myself physically for...

All you really need to do to get through basic/boot is just be fit enough to get above just passing, since they won't count all your reps for push ups/pull ups etc. And be able to just roll with the bs you will have to put up with.
Has anybody got links to genuinely bad gun channels on youtube? I'm looking for some cheap laughs. (inb4 nutnfancy, etc.)
People doing things like:
-taking themselves seriously when they shouldn't
-being childish or unsafe
-tactics that most professionals would consider blatantly wrong/unjustifiable
I'm trying to avoid parody and comedy, and steer towards groups like V.I.P.E.R.S. Academy and the early days of VSO Gun-channel. Dudes who don't have a clue what they're doing but think they do. Here are some little gems, in case you...

Hey /k/,
Can a non US citizen ever hope to become an aviation officer (helicopter) in the US Army? You need a bachelor's degree to even be considered for officer, I will probably get mine in about 2.5 years (EU here). Can I apply for a green card, become a citizen, then proceed to become an aviation officer? I'll be 22 by the time I get my bachelor's degree. Is there any hope that I get to be an aviation officer in the US army or should I just kill myself?
>>29501079
bump, someone help this poor guy out
You need to be a citizen. You don't need a degree to be a warrant officer

OP here, so should I just focus on getting citizenship and then join the 'High school to flight school' program?
Why don't Special Forces exclusively use battle rifles instead of assault rifles?
>Assault rifles have lighter ammo
Special Forces are stronger than normal soldiers
>Assault rifles are easier to spray & pray with
Special Forces can aim better, so use less ammo.
>>29501065
are you fucking serious?
is this bait
>>29501065
The assault rifle concept is superior to the battle rifle concept. The increase in rounds carried by assault rifle users is only enhanced by the better training of SF forces. Just face it dude, your battle rifles are obsolete.
