Continuing last thread, defense contractor who has worked several federal contracts for the CIA and OGAs, as well as done freelance contracting. I have worked in nearly every continent doing everything from training and advising to R&S missions and PSD work. AMA.
Also to reply to some previous points from the last thread:
I was working in Taiwan in 2014 right after their parliament building was stormed and occupied by protestors after then-president Ma pissed everyone off with his pro-Beijing shilling. I worked with and trained local police and military at...

I worked as a Pashto/Dari interpreter for Army Special Forces in Afghanistan for 13 months. I'd like to join to Army if I can't find any good jobs in the States. Would 35 series with an Option 40 contract be good for my career after the military?
>>29472554
Don't go 35F with an option 40, if that's your passion go 18x, neither will lead to great jobs when you get out if you don't use the skills to go into some kind of contracting gig which isn't a straight shot guarantee. Op 40 is great if you want to see action, but especially with the language aspect you want 18x.
>>29472580
The vision in my left eye isn't correctable to 20/20, so I wouldn't qualify for 18x (even though I met one SF dude who told me that he had to get a waiver for his hearing, I believe that was in the early stages of the WOT). I'm leaning more toward 35M and 35P, jobs where my language skills would be put to use.
I have to say that I enjoyed going on missions with SF even though I had no prior firearm/military experience. Did I mention that I can speak Arabic, too?

How much of a difference does a good belt and holster make in terms of concealing a gun? I'm fairly skinny and live in hot weather but I really want a Sig P239 as my first cc gun.
Is there any way to see if I can get away with concealing one before buying one?
Just go to the gun store and ask if you can put their wares down your pants. They will totally understand. Gunbro code.
>>29472183
Can you actually do this?

>How much of a difference does a good belt and holster make in terms of concealing a gun?
less of a difference in how concealed it is.
more of a difference in how comfortable you will be.
absolutely necessary.

I have an opinion on this gun, many disagree though.

sootch is the biggest fucking retard who is related to guns on youtube
only had to wait 15 minutes for this to show up. now for the other 10 threads about this same topic.
My friend saw my M39 and said, "man that looks like a nugget had sex with a mauser and made a baby." What other weapons could be described in such a manner? IE: "That looks like a ___ had sex with a ___ and had a baby"
Pic related, it's my m39.
>>29472041
There's some gun that looks like a hybrid of a bolt action and a lever action. I can't remember what it's called.

For those that don't know, Insight on SBS will be covering guns as the topic. Expect a shitshow with old eyebrows himself, David Shoebridge and some Port Arthur victims on the panel. Airs 8:30pm on Tuesday.

Nobody gives a shit about fucking SBS cunt
I feel for our Aussie friends. If there is one country on Earth where firearms & weapons ownership and training should be paramount it is Australia. It's like every living thing on the continent lives by the motto: "Fuck off; we're full."
Oh and something that any faggots from WA should be made aware of if you're not already. Licensing is changing over to a new system coming into affect on the 29th of April, the switchover starts on the 18th and no licenses will be processed until the 29th. Get your additional applications in as soon as possible, I myself will be putting in a application for a 28" Synthetic Adler tommorrow.

If all guns, including fully automatic were made legal, what would happen to guns like the AR 15 or modified AK?
They'd still be popular. Feeding and maintaining a full auto is a bitch on your wallet.
>>29471827
They would be modified to have full auto capabilities with terrifying speed.
man what is the point of a lower reciever that can only take one caliber? that's like the anti-caveat of ARs.
>>29471855
funny since you could get an echo trigger which is fast as is. anything more and you're replacing barrels.
Why don't we bring the M113s back into service?
They're literally perfect for multiple roles and are loads cheaper than any Striker variant. Not to mention that they are tracked and won't have as much issue with rough terrain.
>>29471741
because theyre 50 year old matinence nightmares that get raped by ww2 era shaped charge weapons
>>29471741
>>29471741
Tracks are good, but their maintenance is insane. Literally fucking insane.
Wheels were chosen for a reason for the Stryker. Also, road travel is way better with wheels.
the ar-15 is just a 22
The k98 is just a .32
the 1911 is just an 800fps
Obvious bait I'll explain for newfags. The AR-15 fires a .223. This means the bullet is for all intents and purposes a .22 size projectile.
OP is saying that because it is the size of .22 that it will only do the damage of a .22lr or similar small game round.
He's purposely ignoring the length of the case/amount of powder in the .223's load that cause such a spike in velocity compared to .22lr even though the bullet fired are practically identical it's just one is going much faster which it terms meets a threshold allowing the .223 to catastrophically,...

Does anyone here carry a 1911? How does it stack up against other CC pistols? Since I'm a tall guy, I figure a shoulder holster should make it disappear, and I love the way they feel in my hand.
It's heavy as shit, but it's carries very slim. As long as you have a good holster, you're fine. If you carry IWB, make sure it's got two clips, as wide as you can get them.
>>29471450
I don't think IWB would be a great idea for me. I do a lot of sitting, which is why I use a Tok in a shoulder holster right now.
Fuck AR manufacturers, they all try way too fucking hard to be the ultimate COD/Tactical/Mall-ninja rifle. All but a few fail at being "the very best." They all pretty much ignore the innate weight and balance advantages of the AR-15 platform. There's basically no off-the-shelf AR's in older patterns. Despite there being 200+ companies, your choices are limited to low end M4 clones, or AR's with 50 rails, and absolutely no attention paid to balance or handling.
This is why I'm into AKs, at least there's some fucking variety. Ak's...
