This backpack looks useful to me, where is a good place to buy one?
>>29338401
amazon.com
Maxpedition is coming out with new bags in June I think. Check their website.
You don't want one of those
They're uncomfortably rigid
The compartments are too small to be useful so that it holds its shape
You have to undo five buckles every time you want in and out of the main compartment
The MOLLE on the sides is so close to your back that anything you wear on it will be jabbing into you
It's like a jungle of straps hanging down when actually being worn
You definitely need some "shoot me first" gear....everyone will know that you're carrying valuable shit
are there guns more reliable than H&Ks?

a nagant revolver? sure why not they are fun
for 250? fuck no
I have already contacted the seller to sell it to me for $50 over list price. Good luck trying to find cheap slavshit, faggot.
400 for a cosmo covered arsenal 26 with a blade bayonet to expensive? I'm in az so it's come down to this one or drive up to j&g and grab one of their sks's.
Which MOS in the Army or Marines is most ideal for being shipped to the sandbox and dying pointlessly for Israel?

pic related is hilarious but probably just swamp butt from sitting around
>>29338167
it also kinda looks like someone just took the ps burn tool and made a dark circle over each butt
>>29338167
You can't get swamp butt in such a low-humidity environment.
Heck even in Arizona your laundry dries by the time you finish putting it on the rack.

Hi /k/
I just turned 18, and I was looking to buy my first centerfire rifle. My parental units are allocating me $2000 to pick out any rifle I want, but I have to fill out the paperwork and buy it under my name and info. I was looking at getting an IWI Tavor after holding a few guns at a store today. I don't plan to hunt with it, just use it as a range toy.
Thoughts? Suggestions?
>>29336833
there are some issues with Durrability and the tavor ive heard of, like the charging handle being broken after dropping the rifle on it.
if its a pure range toy, I dont see any reason not to get it.
moist nugget
No reason not to. Go wild.
why didn't this go ahead?
It would be just as dangerous to the world than it would be to its intended target.
Unacceptable collateral damage during a time of relative peace.
>>29336488
as much as I wanted it to be real, here's why;
it's fucking massive and launching it would turn the area where it was launched from into a wasteland.
granted in a full nuclear exchange, who gives a fuck, but if it was used tactically;
>destroys everything it comes across
>kills its own crew
>fucking massive so good luck transporting it
>expensive as fuck
>complicated and a bitch to maintain
I would like to see a nuclear ramjet missile today, however. that would be great.
>>29336488
ICBMs.
I have a question for you /k/.
I am looking at getting my first rifle and I'm leaning towards the Sig 716 chambered in 7.62 NATO. Im just wondering if anyone has any experience with it and what they think. Im also looking at their 5.56 models. Is there really much difference (other than the obvious) in choosing a 7.62 over 5.56?
>>29336408
The Sig 716 is good. Heavy, but good. I'd still recommend a 5.56 for a first rifle, not an AR-10. AR-15s are more easily modified, easier to find mags, ammo is cheaper, etc.
I'd consider firing a buddy's rifles so you can so which you prefer but to be honest you'll likely end up with firearms in both cartridges eventually so don't sweat it
>>29336470
Holy fuck your picture
AR newfag here, never even really thought of owning, let alone building, an AR until about 3 days ago when I got to shoot my buddy's BCM FDE 14.5" RECCE and became very jelly.
I don't want to spend $1800 on the rifle and optic as he has, plus I'd like my AR to be very much on the lighter end of the spectrum. I spent a couple of hours doing research yesterday and thought I'd run it by some /k/ommandos and make sure I'm not being totally retarded. I'm going with a polymer lower for the first iteration of the rifle, so... just brace yourselves for that.
NFA LW-15 Complete Polymer Lower $110
BCM Blemish Upper $80
Spike's Tactical Posphate BCG $140
Spike's Tactical Forged Charging Handle $23
Faxon 14.5" Pencil Profile Mid Barrel $170
PRI Gas Block with Single Pic Rail $67
AR Pros (Amazon) "New Gen" Muzzle Brake $25
Spike's Tactical Melonite Mid Gas Tube $16
MAGPUL MOE M-LOCK MID Handguard $35
MAGPUL MBUS Flip Sight Set $98
Primary Arms MD-ADS Red Dot $170
So that's $934 all in all. I'll likely replace the pistol grip with a Magpul MOE model later down the road, and maybe replace the stock with a BCM Gunfighter. Also considering the JP Silent Captured Buffer Spring doohicky, but that's farther down the road. Like I said, never even thought about building an AR before, so do I need to pick up any additional hardware packages or anything? Like to mount the barrel to the upper? Anywho, thanks in advance for telling my why I'm dumb for going for the polymer lower. Please feel free to criticize the rest of it too!
Only dumb niggers use polymer lowers

>I'm going with a polymer lower for the first iteration of the rifle, so... just brace yourselves for that.
you dun fucked up OP
there's no way /k/ can get over that, prepare for shitposting galore
>>29336374
Yeah, I know. I saw NFA's torture test videos and my fears were largely assuaged. Also, their poly trigger group is very well reviewed.
Everyone thought Glocks would be shit too...
Once again, I did my annual qualification last night and this morning. The old tired media meme that "only the police are qualified to have guns" is first, a bunch of horseshit and second it's just plain wrong.
My annual course of fire is a total joke. No movement, single target, shooting directly in front of the target. The closest shot is 3 yard, the longest is 25 yards. Much to my amazement, everyone passed on the first try. The fun started after we finished and I pulled out my shot timer to help burn off some ammo and time. Some of these guys could not get out of the holster and get a shot on target within 3 seconds. Shit, the Tueller drill is based on 1.5 seconds and 7 yard - yet most children of the hood can cover 10 yards in 1.5 seconds. Others could not follow simple instructions. Most of these guys are good for the first shot and that's it. Reloads, fumbled. Follow up shots, slow.
How many times do those guys actually manage to get to a range in a given year?
There's your problem. Invite them out. Stop being so elitist.
>>29336087
I have, many many many many many times - including today where I listed the regular IDPA matches within a hour of where we shot. Does that sound elitist? Here are the answer I get.
>Is it free? No, I'm out
>It's on a Saturday? No thanks
>That's too far to go (yeah, cause 20 mile up the turnpike is really far in that new Tahoe you're driving)
>I got bad knees
>Is it outdoors? No, too cold.
Most of them only shoot once an year when it's qualification time.
>>29336157
>Turnpike
New Jersey?
Stun guns are now covered under the second amendment.
In case you haven't heard.
>be a woman living in Mass
>get accused of shop lifting
>cops find stun gun in your purse that you keep so you won't get murder raped by your ex
>Mass lawyers and judges literally use >muh muskets as an argument saying that stun guns didn't exist in the 1790s so they aren't second amendment
>SCOTUS unanimously decides that every lawyer and government official in the entire state of Mass is a fucking retard.
>Musket fags BTFO SCOTUS, all 8 of them, say musket argument is retarded
>women can now carry stun guns
This could be helpful to getting our machine guns back
>>29335904
Sweet yes
>>29335904
I heard it first on reddit.. /r/gundeals , /r/gunpolitics , /r/progun , and /r/dgu are all pretty good subreddits that keep you informed.
https://www.reddit.com/r/gunpolitics/comments/4bczvz/supreme_court_vacates_massachusetts_ruling_that/
So here is the scoop: (simplified a bit)
In 2011 a woman in MA used a stun gun to defend herself from an abusive boyfriend. She was arrested and charged with possessing a stun gun. The case went the MA Supreme Court, where they ruled that stun guns are not protected under the 2nd amendment, as they did not exist at the time of the writing of the constitution.
Fast forward to today, and the Federal Supreme Court has ruled that the MA Court dun goofed and should reconsider their ruling - as in, they need to pick a different argument for their own ruling, which can be then appealed as well.
Read here: http://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/15pdf/14-10078_aplc.pdf
This is a unanimous but unsigned decision by the SCOTUS, but Alito did share some interesting words (even thought they are unbinding): he says that:
-almost all weapons are dangerous, so the "dangerous and unusual" phrase is bogus
-weapons do not have to be used in war to be protected under the 2nd (so the SBS issue that plagued Heller is bogus)
-The individual right to bear arms prevents tyranny etc etc etc
-phased plasma rifles in the 40 watt range will be protected if they are invented; the advance of technology goes along with what is defined as an "arm"
In all, the unanimous and highly pro-gun nature of this ruling, even though it doesn't change anything this instant, opens a broad path towards removing the NFA, GCA, Hughes, etc.
Moreover, the lawyer in Hollis v Lynch will likely use this ruling in his arguments to great effect.
To conclude, this ruling will be very important in the near future as various gun related issues work their way up to the higher courts. So please take a minute of your time and read the ruling - we should all be informed when it comes to these matters.
>>29335903
Holy fuck, should I start getting my hopes up for Hollis vs Lynch? This is awesome to hear they said these things.
The implications are awesome to hear
>>29335933
>should I start getting my hopes up
What do you think?
>>29335946
It's never too late.
How come no one else ever built an airframe as capable as the F-4?
>>29333656
they did it,twice they called them Hornet and Super Hornet
everything is cool as long you don't put pylons and weapons into them,or show them a Mig-17 picture
>>29333656
I'm 9001% phantom phanatic, but I'd say the Mud Hen is as capable.
>>29333656
I thought the frame was proof that anything can fly if you put strong enough engines on it?
This is gonna sound weird but hear me out.
A friend of mine was arrested but not convicted for a non violent felony. He was never incarcerated but he went through a certification program that removed the felony from his record. Does he still have the capability to own a gun?
Pic related: a gun.
>>29333555
if thats it and his felony has been expunged then yes, he can own a gun
>>29333585
That makes sense. We went shooting last week and he was kinda anti gun mostly because he though he couldn't own one.
He shot my m92 pap and fell in love. He will be pretty happy to hear this. Thanks for the info.
>>29333555
Felon with a gun, what could go wrong?
>But he never got convicted!!
But he's still a dumb ass who committed a felony.
I really don't suggest you tell him where all your guns are. His drug use will only increase and soon he'll be robbing your house while you're at work or school.
I'm gonna get my first handgun soon, should I get a striker or a hammer fire pistol? What are the benefits to both? Disadvantages?
>>29333176
Get something with a hammer, or a Kahr. Many would argue the striker-fired pistols' simpler manual of arms and lighter, more consistent triggers make them better beginner guns, but it also makes them less forgiving of poor handling practices...particularly relevant for a newbie buying a carry gun. Hammer-fired guns are generally a bit safer in this way, and at least have the possibility of having superior triggers - a lighter/shorter pull doesn't always mean "better".
>>29333176
Mostly personal preference IMO
Not that >>29334462 doesn't have valid points though
>>29333176
Is that airsoft? Dat slide safety.
