Concealed carry question.
Should I carry this? I generally have to wear semi-tight clothing.
What does your heart tell you OP?
>>29190702
Carry something on my person that wont stick out on a day to day basis, but will get a motherfucker off me if I have to pull it.
>>29190730
any gun is better than no gun... however for practicality's sake you have picked one of the objectively worse ones
Tell us the story of how you learned to shoot.
Here's mine: When I was 14, my dad gave me a Marlin 60 for christmas and took me out to teach me how to aim and shoot it. The next year he bought me a 12 gauge. That was the end of his teaching. He never taught me how to clean or field strip any gun. I finally cleaned that .22 and 12 gauge for the first time when I was an adult and realized that it needed to be done.
When I reached the legal age to buy my own firearms I started buying more. My first handgun was a 1911. Going to a range never crossed my mind at the time because I was out in the country and could shoot any time I wanted. I did go to some ranges in the past 2 years but most of what I've learned about guns, I learned from the internet.
i learned to shoot with a friend of mine, we were both interested in firearms and got into it together

The internet and videogames have taught me everything.
I have a question which I cannot quite figure out. Was going to post on /sci, but that place is dark and especially angry, so I'm giving /k a shot. Feel free to speak in math, though please explain your variables so that a clueless hack can figure them out. Disclaimer: I am not savvy about firearms or physics... it will be obvious soon. Feel free to correct numbers and terms which I have mistaken. Numbers are LOOSE, just trying to get ballpark answer.
.30-06 rifle cartridge has about 2700 Nm of energy at muzzle. Assume gun barrel is 0.6 m long. This number is staggering to me, about ten times the power of most handguns? Regardless, this equates to an avg. force of 450 kg (1000 lb) accelerating the bullet down the barrel for its full length. Assume 4.5 kg or 10 lb rifle. I looked up chamber pressure for .30-06 and the numbers all work out, at least 450 kg of force behind the bullet.
Every action has equal and opposite reaction. This concept makes me incorrectly think that an assault rifle would have to be mounted VERY securely. Calculated muzzle energy would accelerate 15 lb gun backwards at 60 mph (?), which would seriously injure an arm. Yet they are shot from the shoulder with very manageable recoil.
What am I missing?
Thanks-
>>29190333
Kinetic energy has nothing to do with recoil impulse.
It's all about momentum.
The easiest way to explain it is conservation of momentum. At the start, the bullet and rifle can be considered one combined unit. When you pull the trigger, you are causing a separation of the bullet rifle unit. Initially the momentum was zero, so after this action the total momentum, ie the sum of the bullet and rifle momentum, must be zero. Momentum is a vector, which means it has magnitude and direction, so momentum of the bullet and momentum of the rifle point in opposite directions, and must have the same magnitude in order for our conservation statement to hold true. But, just because the rifle and bullet have the same magnitude of momentum, it is easy to see that they will have different velocities when we look at the equation for momentum: p=mv
Equating the rifle and bullet magnitudes we see
m_r * v_r = m_b * v_b
m_b / m_r = v_r / v_b
This says the ratio of masses is the same as the ratio of the velocities. We know that the mass of the bullet is much less than the mass of the rifle, so the term on the left is small. This indicates thay the term on the right must also be small, or that the velocity of the bullet must be much greater than the velocity of the rifle.
>>29190333
at no point has there been an assault rifle chambered in 30-06, that would be ridiculous and impractical especially in full auto
Are they too fedora? My grandfather gave me his and I actually find revolvers pretty cool.
>>29190164
Revolvers are pretty cool, OP, but there are much better options out there for CC. Anyway, do you want to cause more wear to a possible family heirloom and risk damaging it or would you rather spend $300 on a S&W Shield and have something you don't worry about?
Pic semi related, not a great choice for CC
>>29190164
Don't use your fucking grandfather's revolver for a CC. What happens when you have to use it and it gets confiscated as evidence and sits in a police evidence locker for a year marinating in nigger blood? Use something you can afford to lose.
>>29190164
Get a modern .38, they're cheaper and more effective
>600 lumen led flashlight:$3
>forend for Mossberg 500:$25
So why is this Surefire forend $400? You could have a whole new Mossberg 500 for $400. Sure, quality, but how much quality would i lose if i settled for a $100 foreend?
>A E S T H E T I C
>>29189987
it has a pressure switch and adjustment buttons and shit iirc
with Surefire stuff it all feels $150 too much but they're pretty durable.
Because two kinds of people buy Surefire
1. The Government
2. Overweight gear queers and AR owners who do nothing but take pictures of it
One thing ties all three of these concepts together OP. What is it?
I want a gun on my sailboat that I can use to engage pirates on the high seas. What do I go with /k/. Need something under $2000.
pic unrelated.
Saiga 12 wouldn't be a bad choice.
>>29189877
What do you think the best tactics would be to engage pirates? Let them inboard and try CQC or try to pick of from range?
>>29189832
Mini14 stainless because corrosion resistance. Other options include mossberg 500 stainless or a glock.
Mini14 is the most effective of the bunch
Looking to do an SKS scout build. Anybody recognize the mag in this image? I love the look of it.
>>29189653
Are you that faggot anon in milsurp threads who always takes milsurp rifles and Bubba them into shitty "scout" rifles and claims he cares for history? If so go kill yourself faggot
If not, that's probably a ak mag, but you should still kill yourself

Also,

10/10 thread OP.
tfw calico tries to improve sales by making them look cooler (not sure if cool is the proper term)
It's 2AM, you awake to the sound of shattered glass and your home alarm system going off. Your hot wife is startled. Your children's room is automatically locked, their window bullet proof and locked as well.
You hear rummaging down stairs, and immediately go for your gun safe. As you quickly open it and tell your wife to go to the kids room (you had a door installed that leads directly to it, with sound proofing), you hear someone coming up the stairs.
What gun do you grab and what is it loaded with?
How dead is the faggot coming up your stairs within the next five seconds?
Four sawn off nuggets taped together.
But fired backwards so the recoil knocks them back down the stairs and onto the four bayonet spears taped together.
>Officer I swear he tripped and fell like this
Of what I have on hand? Stab the upstanding citizen with my SKS, fire rounds into him, then go innawoods.
>>29189608
This made me laugh more than it should have
No, no.
It was funny.
It was very, very funny.

Will you remove kebab in the process? If not you can leave.
Hey /k/ I've noticed a lot of threads like
>if you have $3k what do you buy
>I have $300 for my first gun
And so on.
We should really make something like Logicalincrements.com but for guns. We don't even need a website. Logical increments started as a png file that would get updated every few months. Guns change a lot less than computer parts, so an image guide every year or so would be cool. This way newer users can find a starting point for their purchase, as only good value/$ and good quality guns would be on the guide.
I don't know a whole lot on guns, but I would be willing to make a decent looking guide if people more knowledgeable than me on guns could get together a list of what guns to buy at what price points.
What does /k/ think?
>>29189372
>What does /k/ think?
shit idea.
too much variety and too much subjective opinion.
The type of people that would use it would just get hipoints.
I think everything is a trade off and you're going to have continual arguments about what to prioritize.
Weight vs. Accuracy
Accuracy vs. speed
Reliability vs. Accuracy
etc... etc... etc....
Here's what I'd build, see if everyone agrees.
AR-15
16" 1:8 twist, bull barrel with midlength gas system
Low profile gas block under free floated rail
Free float rail that have covers the noveske flash hider (boomer forwardener)
Rock River Arms Lower
Upper receiver of who gives a shit, doesn't matter
Chrome bolt carrier
Non-chrome lined barrel
CTR stock
1x4 illuminated scope and NO back up sights.
>>29189393
It's a decent enough idea. Prices have been holding fairly steady for most guns.
And it would make it easier, especially if we put the link in the sticky. We have a couple pics of approved full size 9MMs but its getting old.
Night /k/ could help out a hell of a lot more than day/k/are
I just got my tax refund. With that and some money Ive saved Im planning to get a crate full of mosins. Wheres the best place to get a crate from?

I've only owned a yugo, so does the cleaning rod stay in without the bayonet?
Pretty standard going price for the SKS these days. Sad to say that.

Keltec is a good realiable brand they said.
Just get a keltec they said.
>UPDATE 4/13: The reader who was injured by the Kel-Tec KSG sent this updated photo of his wound. The surgeons saved the hand, but he lost some fingers.As in the previous accident, the shooter said his VFG broke of the KSG’s rail.

isn't this the guy who decided to put his hand in front of the KSG's muzzle?
>>29189000

magpul actually makes airsoft versions of their accessories

>isn't this the guy who decided to put his hand in front of the KSG's muzzle?
Yes.
>Charlie don't surf!
what did he mean by this?
Obviously reprimanding some guy named charlie for surfing
>>29188790
One of the cameramen was named Charlie and he didn't know how to surf
>>29188790
Charlie is lingo for 'VC' or 'Victor Charlie' in phonetic alphabet.
He means the enemy doesn't surf, so it's okay to surf.
So im watching Fear the walking dead and it has me thinking.
how prepared are you guys.
Im probably pretty fucked unless i get ontop of it early.
I have probably about 150 rounds of ammo for about 6 differnt guns.
I have two axes, a couple of knives, and between me and my brother about 4 descent swords/only one is mine but me and my brother live together.
I have a place to go, hunting land about 45 minutes away. remote enough to keep the dead away for a few weeks.
a weeks worth of can food, and there are supplies at base camp.
problem is one of my brothers lives 20 minutes in one direction with his wife and newborn son, my mom and her husband live about 20 minutes the another direction/ both live about an hour and 30 minutes from base camp.
But i also have to get my friend and her kids, i can pick them up on the way to camp.
but she will want to get her asshole dad and her schizo brother about 20 minutes in the opposite direction.
I also have to get my blind grandma and other grandma they both live in the city about 45 minutes from me.
plan is to tell everyone to meet me at the lake and then escort them to base camp.
like i said pretty fucked unless i get ontop of it early. im pretty screwed cuz of my family.
I also have some cousins an aunts who might need help as well.
as a whole group probably two thousand rounds of ammo.
>>29188774
Pretty fucking prepared since zombies are impossible.
>>29188800
way to go, but a zombie apocalypes plan can apply to just about any SHTF situation
>>29188826
Not really
