Why are shotgun handguns not popular?

>>522558

Harsh recoil and the similarity to sawed-off shotguns used by criminals, who are bad people.

In the US, they're specifically disallowed due to requiring smoothbore barrels and/or gauges larger in size than .50" in diameter(that's about 12.7mm) and either would label it as a destructive device. We can have .410 bore handguns with rifled barrels, though.

>>522558

Fire one and find out

>>522601

>filename

Those are clues to why I posted them.

Saging because I'm only double posting to pretend I'm editing.

>>522558

Because the NFA destroyed innovation, and outside of the US shotguns have never been generally seen as more than a purely sporting arm.

IS there an equivalent of "'13 Reasons Why" for school shootings?

Are there any .308 conversion kits for the VZ58? I found a .223 kit but that round is for pussies imo

>>522645

>>522664

Get a lee handloader no pun intended for reloading .303 if you aren't looking to invest in a bunch of equipment. It'll cut the cost of ammo down a bit. Or find an Ishapore in 7.62NATO and have it head spaced for .308.

>>522663

>7.62x45 Czech

It's a damn shame the round might as well be dead. You'd think one of the many shitholes the VZ.52's got exported to would have picked up domestic production.

>>522663

damn shame. how does it hold up compared to x39?

>>522674

The standard load was a tad bit better than x39, although I suspect it could have been loaded as an in between x39 and 7.62 Nato. Fucking shame it didn't go anywhere.

>>522672

Most VZ.52's got converted over to 52/57's due to the adoption of x39. Its not common to find an unconverted one, the last time I saw one it was 900+ and it came with 100 rounds of ammo.

>>522682

It's the opposite down here. Very few 52/57's around but Century and Interarms imported a ton of african conflict 52's.

>>522674

Performance is similar to 6.5mm Grendel.

It is a bit bulkier, but for the time period it's an OK piece of engineering.

Been considering selling my SLR-107FR for quite some time now, anyone know how much they're actually worth now? Picked mine up for $800 a few years ago. I've seen them on Gunbroker for $1700 sometimes, just seems unreasonable.

Love it and all but just want to either get into the AR game or just buy an AUG, since that's my dream gun. Thanks.

>>522703

*To specify, this is the wikipedia page (since the flintlock page doesn't mention this):

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half-cock

>Many firearms, particularly older firearms, had a notch cut into the hammer allowing half-cock, as this position would neither allow the gun to fire nor permit the hammer-mounted firing pin to rest on a live percussion cap or cartridge. The purpose of the half-cock position has variously been used either for loading a firearm, as a safety mechanism, or for both reasons. The still commonly used English expression of "going off half-cocked" derives from the failure of the half-cock mechanism to keep the hammer from falling and the subsequent failure to prevent a firearm from firing when unintended.

So why was it still used on flintlocks? And I meant to mention that I've seen someone fire a flintlock from the half-cock position, or what I assume to be (because on other flintlocks the full-cock, or what I assume to be, is blatantly further back).

Where do I meet girls to date?

>>522707

>So why was it still used on flintlocks?

So you could have the frizzen down (meaning the pan was closed and powder wont fall out) without having the hammer at full cock.

>>522620

The show was pretty stupid. I heard in the book any of the characters that got tapes could of intervined and help her but in the show she really just told everyone to fuck off even the main dude that liked her. Imo it's her fault she died.

I guess for school shooters you can say that they are all just bullied victims that their parents neglect so much they can not notice that their child needs help or something is wrong. They do not interact much with their kids which is why they get shocked why they commit suicide or shoot up a school. Also autism, suberbs, white, edge Lord, black gun, poor haircut, bad manifesto.

Were there any conflicts prior to Vietnam in which assault rifles saw use by both sides?

>>522902

You gonna help me find a gf or not.

>>522898

Define assault rifle. Also defined "saw use" (does an Allied soldier taking a dead German's STG count?). You also have to define "prior to Vietnam" (US entry or absolute start of hostilities?).

World War 2 is a possible candidate if you count the M2 Carbine. If you deem 30 Carbine insufficiently intermediate, the only possible thing before the absolute start of the Vietnam war (1955) is Soviet (Type 56 didn't exist yet) military action against countries they armed.

Volunteer at organizations you appreciate. Find gils there.

Also gun clubs, and hobby clubs.

Basically teh best route imo is to DO things you like and hopefully find a gril there.

Also what >>522921 said.

Why do recently manufactured Rem 700 receivers both Remington & aftermarket use hard to install Remington style barrels, and not easy to install savage style barrels?

What thought process do you, personally, go through when deciding what gun to buy next?

>>523031

I basically make a mental list of three or four guns that I'm lusting after, then go to the gun shop and impulsively buy one of them.

Ideally, I would identify a hole in my current armory that needs to be filled, do thorough research regarding how to best fill it, and go from there… but that's not how it really works.

>>522983

I thought about joining a rock climbing gym but it was pretty expensive. I am currently trying to get my handgun permit, but then again guns are expensive too along with ammo. What goes on in gun clubs? Really you can meet girls there? around the 18-23 age?

>>523041

I've met a few girls rock climbing, but you'll want to be decent at it before trying to pick any of them up

>>523041

Just don't tell them they're your target, bad things happen.

I like the Styer's a1 sights and looks.

Sig once had a limited run in 357 sig, is there a way I could convert one to shoot that caliber?

>>523073

>>523042

Meh I think I will try to get into shape and become pretty decent first before wasting time on a girl. Unless we connect right away. What do you mean target? Like kidnap?

>>523336

>What do you mean target?

I can't find my cap but it went something like this

>Autiste of the finest goes to a range that has a few qt's

>After sometime he musters the courage to talk to one of them

>Spills all his spaghetti and says that shes his target

>permabanned from range

I need something to check my hits on target before the range goes cold. What's a good cheap spotting scope/binoculars for doing this? The cheapo binocs I have don't give enough clarity to tell where holes.

Is a 1-2 hour class that like 120$ for basic hand gun training really enough to learn proper handgun fundamentals in safety? I was recommended to take this class before the CCW but I was just wondering is it really that short you can learn not to be a retard with a gun.

>>523463

1-2 hours is all anyone without mental deficiencies should take, there really isn't much that's extra from the safety fundamentals for rifles. Its mainly don't be a fuckwit and be more cautious cause its smaller.

We need to make a whitelist and blacklist of firearm manufacturers, and also sources of of what company did good and Judaism. Are Colt and S&W anti-2nd?

>>523676

Colt goes bankrupt every other year and someone else buys it. It's changed hands thousands of times since Samuel Colt died. It's been REALLY anti-gun in the past, they forced the AWB trough for example, and they got the AR banned up here.

>>523701

The only budget items that get funded reliably are those where funds can be skimmed off of by corrupt officials, bribes or gifts taken, favors to be had…

>>523701

To be fair, there isn't anything that is so much better that it would justify the cost of replacing it right now.

>>523710

Replacing every rifle in military, plus spares, plus new ammo, would cost fifteen F-35s.

>>523701

I'm inexperienced with AR platform but considering building from an 80%. Got any recommended online resources to read up about this? I could google it but hey why not ask /k/ for better results?

Also recommendations for manufacturer of 80% lower (or even entire kit).

First off, if you're without a mill you're going to need a jig for a drill press. This is a fairly good example if you don't have the fancy tooling.

Why did Saudi Arabian government hire the private military to work for themninsyead of using their own military?

>>523768

Uh, you understand the Saudi Army got BTFO so hard they resorted to mercenaries.

>>523768

Anyone have experience with International Military Antiques or Hessen Antiques? Wanting to pick up a Stahlhelm and IMA has Finnish contract sanitized originals. Are they good to deal with or should I get a repro? If so from who?

>>523768

Arabs are universally shit at warfare, and the Saudis.. well, have you ever had a friend that came into money unexpectedly and basically got enough to live comfortably the rest of his life but instead blows it all on useless shit in a year or less? That's Saudi Arabia, except the well (literally) hasn't dried up yet.

>>523774

The finnish contract ones are a good deal considering they're properly hardened unlike most repros.

>>523774

>International Military Antiques

Bought some shit from them and it shipped fairly quickly and in good shape. Haven't dealt with customer service so I can't comment on that, but I've heard the owners are assholes.

>>523075

The thread is still up at >>520142

>>523676

I'm going to miss a few companies but some Streloks can add to it. Smith & Wesson does have a history of going anti-gun from so many changes of hands and Bill Ruger had a hardon for limiting magazine size but Bill's been dead for over a decade. Colt is US H&K except Colt is incapable of innovation and targets the people who love that Colt rollmark.

>hessen antique

That's where I got >>523853 from. They have a big selection (lots out of stock regularly) most of the stuff I've ordered from them are pretty good, only exception being a WWI butcher blade bayonet replica I bought, which had a hole (not all the way through but rather substantial right above the handgrip (ie biggest stress point) I emailed them within 3 days of getting my shit and they never replied. Oh and because they only use UPS shipping to Canada is usually 50$ about 3.47 USD plus 40-60ish UPS charges for fucking brokerage. But their products I find are pretty good besides that.

>>523768

Because they wanted to dickwave by invading Yemen, but instead of winning easily the Yemenis stopped the Saudi invasion, and then counter-invaded Saudi Arabia. They did not give two fucks, Yemenis broke off the tip of the Saudi spearhead and just walked across the fucking border laying waste and pillaging dozens of cities.

Imagine America tries to invading Panama and instead of winning Panamanians burn a few American cities to the ground. This is how retarded the Saudis are.

Anyone know any good websites to order reproduction stuff so I can LARP as a Nazi? I've been buying stuff off hessen antique but they only use UPS shipping and the cheapest rate + brokerage is usually around 100 beaver bucks just to get my shit here.

Varies by state. New York for example classifies them the same as a modern firearm with regards to possession by a convicted felon.

Thanks, that's exactly what I was looking for. Pretty excited to do this

Was there ever an ammo crash? Are prices still falling?

I can get 22lr for 5 cents a round shipped. This is way better than it was during sandy hook, but this is also still more than it cost 20 years ago.

It seems like manufacturing technology has gotten much better and it should be more like 2 cents a round or something. AR15s used to cost 1500 dollars and now you can get them for 400 bucks. Technology.

Im debating whether I should buy 10k rounds now or wait a few more years. The california ammo permit law slams down in 2 months so if the price doesnt fall it will cost me even more.

The police arent going to search your car at the border. There isnt even a checkpoint on most roads.

If anyone asks just tell them you will surrender it to your local police station within 30 days as required by law. And then dont surrender them. Or have a terrible boating accident.

A friend of mine gave me a Savage Axis .270 winchester. Although I know of the round, I've never fired it before, nor do I know anyone around me who has a .270. What are your experiences with 270? Should I take it hunting? How does it compare with 308 and 30-30?

>>524033

I wouldn't use it for hunting if your going for anything deer sized or larger.

>>524033

The .270 Winchester became a very popular cartridge due to the widespread praises of gunwriter Jack O'Connor who used the cartridge for 40 years and touted its merits in the pages of Outdoor Life.[4][5] It drives an 8.4 grams (130 gr) bullet at approximately 960 m/s (3,140 ft/s), later reduced to 930 m/s (3,060 ft/s). The cartridge demonstrated high performance at the time of its introduction and was marketed as being suitable for big game shooting in the 370 to 910 metres (400 to 1,000 yd) range. Two additional bullet weights were soon introduced: a 6.5 grams (100 gr) hollow-point bullet for varmint shooting, and a 9.7 grams (150 gr) bullet for larger deer, elk, and moose in big-game hunting.[3]

Loads are commonly available from 6.5 to 10.4 grams (100 to 160 gr) sizes with 8.4-and-9.7-gram (130 and 150 gr) loads being by far the most popular. Handloaders have a larger range of options with the availability of bullets in a number of weights from 5.8 to 11.7 grams (90 to 180 gr). Common bullet weight recommendations for shooting different game are as follows:

5.8–7.1 grams (90–110 gr) bullets: animals smaller than coyote.

8.4 grams (130 gr) bullets: antelope or other animals up to the size of mule deer.

9.1–10.4 grams (140–160 gr) bullets: deer, elk, moose, and some larger animals.[1]

>>524042

90 gr (6 g) HP 3,603 ft/s (1,098 m/s) 2,595 ft·lbf (3,518 J)

130 gr (8 g) SP 3,060 ft/s (930 m/s) 2,702 ft·lbf (3,663 J)

140 gr (9 g) SP 2,916 ft/s (889 m/s) 2,644 ft·lbf (3,585 J)

150 gr (10 g) SP 3,000 ft/s (910 m/s) 2,998 ft·lbf (4,065 J)

130 gr (8 g) SST 3,200 ft/s (980 m/s) 2,955 ft·lbf (4,006 J

What is objectively the best adjustable stock for a carbine length ar?

>>524033

Depending on where you're at it can be a fine deer round. Like anything else I'd spend some time on the range getting used to the round first before taking it into the woods.

Never really been a fan myself, but say you're getting your woman into hunting and she's comfortable with the .243, .270 is a nice step up.

>>524034

In the southern US it's perfectly fine for deer, they don't get huge down here.

Yet we still get people that think a .300 Win Mag is the absolute bare minimum needed to take an Alabama Whitetail.

>>524086

Poop on the floor.

>>524020

Where can I buy a full-auto AR15?

>>524104

Full auto M16 variant, sure, but a full auto AR15 would be stupidly expensive if you can find one outside of a museum.

>>524121

Factory full-auto yes, but plenty of pre-1986 converted ones exist and aren't stupidly expensive compared to the rest of full autos.

Anyone know of a good rust removing solution like Brownell's Steel White? Picked up some bayonets that have seemingly been sitting in a barn for 30 years and don't want to mess up the markings by scrubbing them down.

>>524086

>>524191

Surface rust can be eliminated with gun oil and a rag, but if it's deep and crusty shit you may want to consider electrolysis.

>>524206

Never fucked with electrolysis, but I've used steel white to great effect in the past. Just wanting to know if there's a cheaper alternative to shelling out $50 bucks and shipping to get some from Brownell's.

>>524191

Someone here suggested Automatic Transmission Fluid and Acetone in a 1:1 mix worked well, but I haven't tried it.

I'm thinking about getting a carry gun. Never carried before. Should I get a cz p-01 or cheap out and get something like a sccy cpx2?

>>524235

Fingerfuck all the handguns you can afford, look up holsters for ones you like, and consider the weather of your surroundings - colder climates allow for more variety while warm temperatures will either make you wear bowling shirts or pick a smaller gun.

.380 is the bottom line as far as practical CCWs go, and depending on your stature a fullsize handgun may or may not be a good fit to conceal.

I would wholeheartedly recommend watching all of Paul Harrell's(https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6QH13V2o68zynSa0hZy9uQ/videos) videos on concealed carry. He doesn't preach to you and he lays down a lot of baselines, options, and concepts.

If you made a cylinder that had the needed extension to form a seal built into it (replacing the mouth of a 7.62×38mmR), could you use the Nagant mechanism on a cap and ball revolver to suppress it without even a 4473?

>>524257

iirc black powder guns are considered non-firearms federally so you can do whatever. Enjoy your silent smoke screen.

Is ballistics gel good for making onaholes?

>>524257

The Nagant used brass cartridges to perfect its own and steel doesn't do a goo job of it, so you would still get some leakage.

Now if you had rubber around the forcing cone and pushed the mouth of the cylinder over it, then you might get some sort of gas seal. But then, I'm not good with engineering and it's still early in the morning for me.

So , this is just a variation of the recommendation question but what are somethings to look out when buying a bolt action rifle ? Asking this because bolsocuck is probably going to win and he might legalize guns to a point where a .223 is available, I know to check for cracks and thing like that in the stock and receiver (is it another word ?) but anything else is helpful

>>524257

Doable, but you'd have to have very precise machining on the cylinder, extension, and bore itself, plus oversized balls. I'm sure this has been tested somewhere that I haven't seen, but I'm sure BP in a suppressor is a recipe for a bad time after a cylinder or two.

>>524300

Check for not only cracks but also stress marks on all the metal. Also look for parts that show uneven wear. Take a set of calipers to check the bore diameter. If you can't get those a field expedient bore gauge is a loaded cartridge of that caliber. Put the bullet end in the end of the bore but don't force it. If the bullet goes in entirely or even past the cartridge neck the bore is seriously fucked. Headspace is a little harder to check unless it's a break action. In that case hold the closed action up to a light source, if you can see anything between the breechface and the end of the chamber run the fuck away.

>create solar powered factories that only produce RDX

>use RDX as explosive in bombs and warheads

>use RDS as solid rocket propellant for rockets

can anyone spot anything wrong with this plan?

remember that RDX doesn't explode if it's mixed properly, it can deflagrate and power engines.

posting again because i posted in the old thread on accident

So I'm interested in buying my "first" gun. I already own one; my grandfather gave me a .22 rifle when I was 14. This would be the first gun that I've actually purchased. I've been looking a little bit at lever action rifles, mostly for the aesthetic. I'm more interested in target shooting or hunting, rather than self-defense. What would /k/ recommend for me to check out? Preferably something inexpensive.

>>524363

See how you like the a full-bore levergun.

>>524287

I had gone looking for the exact quote in Dawn of War – Dark Crusade when you first enter the Ork fortress square, about driving orks from city streets being one thing, but exterminating them in their home jungle being another entirely.

Alternately, there was a dilbert comic, in which Dogbert mind-wiped Ratbert, who declared himself a guru & sooth-sayer afterword the event. He prophisied there would be war, in the middle-east. Ratbert also thought there would be sand involved, but he was less sure about that part. Dogbert didn't know if he was bering serious or not, because with Ratbert, you really can't always tell.

>>524387

I like this Strelok's timeline, tbqh fam.

>>524392

He has a point, but he's attacking randos who don't even support the NRA and have called them out on supporting bans. He just seems to be an autist trying to attack as many big youtbers as possible to get his shitty channel some attention.

bumping this question

>>524416

>that can be easily modified into more than one thing

I had the AR and AK in mind, but if there were anything else out there from any other country I would have liked to know. I'm just unclear off the top of my head what is exactly what. Like, for the longest time I didn't know we could manufacturer AK variants that aren't actually fully-automatic. But can those same AR and AK variants be modified or added to like any other that might be issued by one's military?

>>524416

There are muzzleloading uppers for AR's these days too.

>>524422

I don't think I understand. Are you talking about variants of guns like an SBR 10 inch AR being turned into a mk18, or 18 inch barrel with free float rail and bipod turned into a mk12. Or did you mean like I thought and slap a muzzle loader barrel like >>524423 turning your modern sporting rifle into a gun that is legal to hunt with in like 99% of america. If you meant the first then just know that most AR variants tend to use Knights Armament Company parts and as such is priced to kill your wallet but suck droplets out of uncle sams money bucket.

>>524418

Yeah, it seems fellow Clapistani think that AKs run even if you held it together with toothpicks, snot, bubblegum, staples and rubber bands. Hence why so many manufacturers try to cut corners and end up horribly fucking up like PSAK Gen 2's first batch of cast iron front trunnions, cast pistons and I.O.'s shitty rivet jobs and hoping noone noticed they made everything out of zinc.

>>524686

Also I want to know recommendations for other channels to download in their entirety? I know that kocayine had a bunch of irrelevant video game shit in it along with the historical war propaganda, but I don't know of other channels with that much actual historical propaganda content. Let me know what to archive or even better, archive it yourself before posting.

>>524686

Kocayine already reuploaded most of his stuff already.

>>524694

Honestly thank you, I didn't know, but I still think that sites like youtube are entering a new phase of censorship and it's time to make sure we actually save shit.

>>524696

Perfectly understandable. Anything well made to do with the manufacture of funs would probably be a good start.

>>524699

It's kind of funny but just now I'm finding higher quality versions of old videos first seen on kocayine. And I thought all of the videos went through commieversionofsuper8>VHS>moldybasementdecay>pripyat>RealVideo>webm>mp4 and that explained the potato.

Still going to archive if they are trying to purge. I think it's going to get worse very soon.

Should I buy a nugget for $220 or save that cash for something else?

Kinda want to get a nugget to fuck around with.

>>524708

Nuggers are fun but for me it's just so hard to say "go" when they used to be $100. Let somebody else speak

>>524708

You can find a cheap Mauser or maybe Enfield for that or close to that, and you'd have a much better rifle in either case. The ammo situation doesn't matter as much anymore either, it's not like we've got crates of spam cans coming in for .05 cents a round anymore.

>>524686

>>524701

Doing gods work anon. Will seed if you get around to making a magnet link.

>>524708

They're trash

all old surplus guns are hugely expensive now. Enfields and Mausers are regularly around $500, which is absurd considering you can get a good mid-tier 5.56 AR or 300AAC ar for exactly that price. Mosins are not worth more than $50 but they're priced at $450, which is truly crazy.

>>524774

where the fuck have you ever seen a nugget for $450? I think you might just be retarded.

>>524858

Anon, not everyone lives where you do. I've heard Californians and other ban-states say Mosins are nearing $500 in certain portions of their states.

Are there any alternatives to 7.62x54r price-wise that are still duur cartridges (no 7.62x39/.223 basically)? Even with surplus drying up, 54r still seems cheaper than everything else due to all the bear/tula/various-russian-cheapshit ammo.

>>524685

Youtube purging old balkan shit? What for?

>>524864

7.62 NEATO/.308 is pretty close, and the cheapshit is even cheaper than 54r.

>>524858

Didn't some anon in NJ state that they were like 500+ at a big box store?

>>524864

Wolf's bringing in steel case .303, 8x57 and .308 that's price comparable or cheaper than their 7.62x54r, and of course for hunting PPU doesn't load anything expensive that I've found.

>>524864

>duur

???

>>524708

No idea if you're paying transfer on that, but a Mossberg Patriot or Savage Axis in 308 is 280+transfer. Both are by far more accurate than a nugget (Sub MoA out of box), more reliable, far easier to mount a scope on and in SHTF you'll actually find ammo for it. Easily worth the extra 60.

>>524874

Oh and Patriot with a scope is 325 while the Axis is 312. The Patriot's scope (A Vortex Crossfire) alone is easily worth paying the extra 100 bucks for. Can't find exactly which Bushnell 3-9x40 the Axis uses though.

Also the Axis, with or without scope, has a 50 dollar rebate till November 12th.

>>523445

A 5.8Ghz video link to a cam downrange would work. Tx/Rx, CMOS or CCD and batteries can be had for under $100.

then they're getting literally raped. You can find good ones online for like $250 max (assuming just a standard nugget), that's not a local thing. Personally I love my nugget, but wouldn't even think about buying one at those rapist prices.

Aim and J&G are the only ones I've seen getting the steel case .303, not the usual stores with the huge stock of oddball WPA ammo. About the only reason I'm considering picking up the next cheap Lee-Enfield I find. Well that and I picked up a 1907 pattern bayonet for next to nothing and need a gun to mount it on.

>>525013

This question actually inspires me.

What I'd like is a dragunov (who wouldn't?) but perhaps the the closest thing is to build an AK in, maybe 6.5 grendel, with a 24" barrel, and add a PSL style thumbhole stock.

Where even can I get an AK pattern barrel in 6.5 grendel? What should I plan on doing different if I want PSL furniture

http://www.troupsystems.com/romanian%20stocks.htm

on an AK47-80% build?

Or come to that, has anybody managed to fit 7.62x54r rounds/magazines into an AK47 lower? Cutting some extra metal wouldn't be hard … so long as there's room for the rest of the parts to be welded in place afterwords.

>>525142

Your best bet is to buy a VEPR in 6.5 grendel or 7.62x54r and go from there.

>>525142

The only problem with 6.5 in an AK is the magazines given 6.5 is longer than both 5.45 and 7.62 by a tad bit. For barrels you just find a reliable barrel maker and tell him what you want. But in all honesty if you aren't looking for the trouble of finding everything do as >>525159 said.

>>525160

Are we talking about 6.5mm grendel? I heard it fits in STANAG

>>525170

6.5 Grendel's parent case is .220 Russian which parent case is a 7.62x39. All you need to make it work in an AK is just a barrel swap and ammo that isn't longer than 5.45x39. A straight up barrel change like that works with vz58's as well.

>>525172

He was talking straight up throwing an AK together with 7.62 parts with a 6.5gren barrel which does work, it also works with vz.58's as well. The only problem is you may have to load your own rounds due to 6.5 gren having an overall length slightly above 7.62/5.45.

>>525175

I mean expanding to 7.62x54

>Or come to that, has anybody managed to fit 7.62x54r rounds/magazines into an AK47 lower? Cutting some extra metal wouldn't be hard … so long as there's room for the rest of the parts to be welded in place afterwords.

I might be misunderstanding what he wants…

>>525179

But a Vepr already does that minus the fact they're singlestack magazines.

>>525175

>handload

Planning on, thanks strelok. And yes, 39 vs 45.

Although, if I wanted to build it in -x54r, I'd need different magazines altogether, meaning cutting open more of the receiver blank, right?

Unless the 1mm (or 1.5mm…) blank could withstand being adapted to accept an AR15 style mag-catch.

>>525179

I think you guys get the gist of it. I want to build an AK, and I'd like it to look like a dragunov, so long barrel, different furniture. If I'm building what looks like a sniper rifle, I'd like it to be in a round that can go the distance … thus 6.5 or -x54r.

I'm already planning on building an AR15 in 6.5 grendel, so will have handloading supplies. I'll just have to mark them "hot" or "AK"

>>525181

I appreciate that, and I'll keep it in mind, but I want to build my rifle, and shoot it too.

>>525175

Just use a press to press it in a bit. There should be enough of an air pocket to reduce it by two or three millimeters without making it explode once ignited, as it has extra air pockets in the necked space.

Or file the bullet down if that's impossible.

>>525181

I'm a fucking idiot please ignore ;_;

>>525183

Just some loads that use heavier grain bullets might be of no use in the AK due to feed problems and such. It is a possibility to find that polymer piece Zastava uses to convert their 5.56 AK's to use STANAG magazines then all manners of ammo could be used.

>>525184

>>525276

wrong, the NRA are not useful and do nothing other than circle jerk and take your money.

Suppose you had a gun chambered in .460 S&W Magnum. Due to the rimmed, straightwall cartridge and consistent bore diameter, it could also chamber .454 Casull, .45 Colt, .45 Schofield, .45 Auto Rim, and maybe even a .410 shotshell.

This has two complications. One, the twist rate for the intended Super Magnum cartridge may not be optimal for the lesser cartridges. Second, the lesser cartridges would have to go through about an inch of freebored chamber before hitting the rifling.

Would this have an effect on practical accuracy, and if so, how much?

>>525771

Depends on the rifling twist on the gun and how the individual load of said cartridges is.

>>525771

Obviously it wouldn't be optimal, they wouldn't be necking at all because they're too short.

>>525170

5.56 AK fag here

What would I have to do for the gas system and the barrel? Can I just get an AR 15 barrel?

>>525809

>>525810

>Can I just get an AR 15 barrel?

There are so many things wrong with that I don't know where to begin. Have you ever even looked at an AK and an AR bolt?

>>525811

I'm 90% sure that's a hollywood prop, specifically Mal's sidearm from firefly.

>>525812

Nothing wrong with mixing old school with new school

>>525812

don't bulli pls

>>525811

From what I understand the prop master on Firefly started with a revolver, I don't remember which one exactly, and just covered the cylinder with side plates then painted it to look like worn brass. It's a very good looking pistol but sadly not real.

>>525789

What do you mean by 'necking'? All those cartridges headspace on the rim, right?

>>525810

You can buy AK barrels in 5.56, just google it everyone sells some.

https://ak-builder.com/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=30370

There is likely to be some level of actual shop work modification, even if just to get a stanag mag to feed into an AK74 properly.

I don't think there are .223 AK kit conversions, why not just by an SLR 106 or some other .223 AK if you genuinely want an easy .223 AK?

>>525837

They headspace on the rim when used in guns built for them, they headspace incorrectly in the gun suggested.

Headspace = the space between bottom of cartridge to mouth of casing, and it's different for all of them.

I want to get a mauser.

>What kind should I get? Are the Czech or Yugo mausers good?

>Where do I get a decent mauser from

>Is ammo still decent to find for it?

>How much does the rifle and ammo cost on average?

>>526242

Czech and Yugo mausers are built on German tooling, later yugo mausers are different than the rest.

>>526242

>Are the Czech or Yugo mausers good?

They're both pretty good. In fact outside of Chinese and some pre-98 patterns I can't think of any military mauser that isn't a fine rifle.

>Where do I get a decent mauser from

That's a little tougher, it's something that you really want to inspect before you buy. Classic Firearms sometimes runs deals and I think they're still good to deal with, if a little overpriced most of the time. Trawl your local shops/ gun shows, no telling what you might find.

>Is ammo still decent to find for it?

8x57 isn't hard to find, it's just solidly in the realm of 'Not sold at walmart'. Good brass is 60-75 cents a round, where you can get steel case for 40-50 cents a round. Any surplus still available is most likely going to be overpriced or just not something you want to touch with a ten foot pole.

>How much does the rifle and ammo cost on average?

Depends on what you're looking for. Yugo and Czech mausers are rising in price, but you can still find deals. If you're going to modify it anyway, or if you're willing to deal with sourcing original parts look for a sporterized gun. I know I picked up a k98 recently that was drilled and tapped and put in a sporter stock but otherwise unmolested for cheap, just have to be patient to find the parts and return it to military configuration.

>>526245

>I can't think of any military mauser that isn't a fine rifle.

The Spanish 7mm small rings converted to .308 can be a bit iffy.

First handgun pic guide. I need it.

>>526278

Chilean ones are the ones to beware of, they weren't rebarreled but had a chamber soldered in.

http://dutchman.rebooty.com/1895Chile.html

>>526278

Nah. Worst case scenario is the receiver stretches, and that happens to all Mausers with use, especially if they've been rebarreled.

Yugos are a bit softer and have a reputation in the sporterizing world for that, too.

The "safety lug" from the large ring action is just an easier way to tell that it's going out of spec when it starts showing wear in the rear.

can somebody explain to me the aspects of newer guns of the same caliber having better control and/or better accuracy then they're older counterparts?

Like if you strapped on a heavy ass barrel to a luger wouldn't it be arguably easier to control constant fire then a small concealable s&w shield?

It's harder to make the comparison to rifles because of larger differences in calibers but the point still stands especially for anything that uses pistol cartridges.

Like I would assume a UMP45 is better in almost every aspect than a Thompson, like cost/maintenance/accuracy/control. but why? If the inner mechanisms are roughly the same and the biggest difference to guns nowadays is weight.

Why do people say shooting a G3 full auto is like snorting hot sauce, but a scar-h (waay lighter gun) is much easier to control?

>>526280

Ain't no boots gonna fit your subhuman monkey feet

What was the point of a trench club when every bloke carried an entrenching tool? Was it so you could ignore the striking angle?

>>526445

I suppose it would depend on the person, similar to a sidearm. They don't want to use a shovel for fighting so they grab a big, fuck-off club, hammer nails into it, and wrap it in barbed wire.

>>526381

>Like I would assume a UMP45 is better in almost every aspect than a Thompson, like cost/maintenance/accuracy/control. but why?

Different materials (wood can swell and so on), manufacturing techniques (stamping vs milling for a big change, other changes over time like quality of raw materials) and the ability to manufacture to much tighter tolerances for a given cost (tighter tolerances usually means greater accuracy). Also experience of previous fuck ups (even if the broad mechanism is the same you'll gain experience of little tricks or unnecessary parts of the original design that might increase potential points of failure). The UMP45 and Thompson are very different guns, you'd be much better comparing the early Thompsons to the later ones. Alternatively compare the AKM to the original AK47.

> If the inner mechanisms are roughly the same and the biggest difference to guns nowadays is weight.

Greater weight might actually make a gun easier to control and so newer, lighter, designs have a bit of a trade-off there.

>>523820

The 2nd gen PSAKs are solid according to everything I've read and watched in addition to my personal experience. I have a prebuilt but the kits with forged parts seem equally decent although they had issues with shipping cast parts with kits that were supposed to have forged bits. That only reared its head when they first launched the kits so I chalk it up to inventory issues as they had parts for 2 SKUs before they officially launched the cheaper forged Freedom kit. They're on sale for ~$500 so as long as they haven't introduced cost-cutting measures into the design over the past 2-3 months, I'd say we actually have a decent, competitively priced, American-made AK on the market for the first time ever. Feel free to disagree though.

>>523824

I can understand why so many people are perplexed by America's inability to produce a decent AK but it makes sense if you consider how the design is supposed to be manufactured. Designs which make heavy use of stamped components are awesome for purposes of mass production but companies building AKs for the US consumer market aren't going to be able to gear up to produce rifles in lots of 10,000+ at a time. Stamped receivers with welded or riveted construction introduce a lot of sources for error into the assembly process. Producing in tolerance receivers from sheet steel requires expensive tooling and properly joining the trunnions to that thin receiver shell requires precise, expensive fixturing to ensure consistency. Just look at the videos of the Io factory for examples of what happens when operators have significant control over the workpiece in the riveting process. There is no excuse for some of the poor material choices and terrible QA seen in certain American made AKs but a lot of that is driven by the fact that an AK is a labor intensive gun to manufacture without all the tooling and automation available to companies cranking them out in huge lots. An AK has to be "cheap" to meet market demands as Combloc factories can crank out decent rifles using the same process and equipment they've had in place for over 50 years.

>>526735

>>526747

Thanks anyways m8, something I'll have to research then.

>>526748

Yeah. The goal is stop the blade from entering the body while trying not to snap it. Blunt trauma is better than bleeding out in my opinion.

>>526764

You've got to soak them for a few days changing the water ever 6hr or so. If you've got a source of running water then have them in that for a good while.

>>526764

The krauts allegedly made coffee substitutes from acorns during dubya dubya dos, does anyone have any info on that?

>>526280

Speaking of which does anyone have a lead on affordable surplus boots that are properly constructed (I mean with a Goodyear welt and replaceable sole and such)?

>>526735

You can buy flexible wire mesh from aliexpress for basically nothing. Could outfit all your clothes with it, if you're patient enough.

>>526768

I figured it wasn't doing any good to boil them in a stew of red shit. I have a water barrel I can pull water out of otherwise, I don't think I'll waste anymore fresh water on this project. There's a creek nearby with running water after rains, but it's well trafficked and kinda gross.

>>526780

I've heard the same thing but I'm not sure if there's any caffeine in oak acorns. I may try it if I can get the purification process down. I've also seen acornbutter which looks interesting.

>>526787

I went through one of my cookbooks, if you're going to boil them have two pots going at once, when one becomes murky as fuck throw the acorns into the clean boiling water and dump the trash water. Keep fresh water boiling the whole time until it runs clear. If you're into the bushcraft aspect of stuff apparently the tannin stuff that leaches from them can be used to tan leather but I don't know too much on that aspect.

>>526790

Apparently its good for soaking your feet in if you have blisters too.

>>526837

No, it's not in line. The black material is not perfectly 100% hard, it's going to flex down minutely, which translates to even more thrust the other way. It happens even if you attach it directly back, it's just that the flexing is linear and less perceptible. Under the forces of firing a gun a lot of parts which seem solid actually flex, this is why recoil causes vibration in the gun almost no matter what you do, and how the myth of barrel harmonics came about.

>>526849

I see, so that's why making good adjustable stocks for bullpups is such a hard thing to do. I guess the best solution would be a tubular upper receiver with a cutout in the stock for the lower. But I guess the cutout shouldn't be too big either, maybe 100-120 degrees out of the 360.

>>526851

I think the AR does a good job of keeping recoil in a straight line the composite furniture limits the refraction of recoil shockwave elsewhere, which is another source of instability

To see the opposite technique look at the Kriss Super V, which actually bends the recoil shockwave so it travels downward and not into the shoulder.

Or the Russian counterbalance system which literally reflects the shockwave back.

so i was looking for a range closer to me than my current, but the only thing nearby is a club and i was looking at their application and it pretty much sounded like i was signing my first born away and required involvement at club events and community service. Are they all like this? i'm just looking for somewhere to shoot, not devote a bunch of time doing things required like that.

Colt doesn't have any claim on the M4 name (Colt v Bushmaster). Does any company have a claim on any military designation?

>>526863

Your best bet is probably to meet someone that's been with the club for some time and find out about it. There's a 50/50 chance that application is just designed to weed out initial applicants that might be trouble, or the club's actually run like a Homeowners Association.

I know for example the club I'm in you either have to have a current member in good standing vouch for you or do a rigorous application before the orientation just to make sure you're not a fuckup.

Recently bought a shitton of cheap "Top Shot Ammunition" 9mm ball ammo to use at the range. Started using it and both my semiauto Sig pistols were malfunctioning up the wazoo, stovepiping and failing to feed. Never had a single malfunction in 2 years until then. Do you think the ammo could be the problem? Anyone experience this before?

However…I keep my magazines full when not in use, for readiness. Could it be that the magazine springs are the problem? Anything wrong with keeping them full all the time?

Thank you senpais.

>>526928

>Factory reloads

I'd say it's the ammo, but you need to do your due diligence. Buy some cheap federal or fiocchi brass from walmart or some cheap PPU or S&B if you have a local shop that carries it and try with that. What ammo do you usually run in your Sigs?

>>526928

No personal experience with this, but let's logically create some steps to take.

1: go to a store and buy a box of new, hot, fresh ammo. Doesn't need to be boatlod; 1 box will tell you. Take that to the range, a magazine's worth in both firearms. No stovepipes? Ammo.

I've had trouble with my AR magazines not feeding well. But they're brand new. It seems it only feeds properly if they're loaded with the headstamp firmly against the back of the magazine. Otherwise the bolt will go right over the top of it, not grab anything, and because the rim is sorta stuck on the feed-lips will make extracting and resolving the misfeed a complete PAIN in the pants to fix. Bleh.

If it's the magazine springs, you'll see it by hand-cycling. Do you have a magazine worth of snapcaps? Load them all, hand crank the slide. If it hangs doing that, then yes your springs are now in question.

Good luck!

Thank you, based anons. May I repay you someday.

>>526933

I normally run Federal Ammunition American Eagle. Never had a single malfunction.

>>526934

Most excellent suggestions! I will try the snap caps first, then will run the ammo experiment. I suspect it is the ammo, so it will be interesting to find out what the culprit is.

I go to a shooting range in LA county (angeles shooting range) the place is filled with cops training at a side range or off duty cops playing with their ARs mingling with the masses. Yet people still go there with their unmolested ARs and no one asks questions. Other than range staff who may comment on how your windowed gen 3 pmag has 30 rounds in it and a giant gaping hole about the size of a drilled out rivet is letting dust in is probably not legal. If inyo county is any more rural than a few miles north of LA proper (read still in the fucking urban areas) then you should have no problems.

You may even have the chance to start a lucrative career come 2018 smuggling ammo by crashing your way to a nevada or arizona gun store, nervously whipping out your wads of cash while trying your hardest to hide the California drivers license and buying pallets of bulk ammo and crapco 30s along with tarps and tie downs and then asking what roads usually don't have police dui checkpoints and people will still not give a fuck.

other than that why the fuck would you stay? unless you have cuck political views. Or are trying to get skills so you avoid living like a welfare nig

Leaf being or leaf or is libshit in leafland/cali different from libshit dallas? I got reported by a neighbor for "owning a definitely illegal weapon" (Read: Scary looking assault bow) and my Cz (.22lr) lol. Cops came round and told that to me and said that group needs to fuck off.*The only reason this fucking horde of 200 pajeets the haven't screwed with only chink in the neighborhood yet is because I have funs and my next door neighbor they hate so much that I'm friends with has a full auto ;^)He's also a nam vet

>Waiting for the day one of the kids throws rocks at my car I again so I can shoot that fucker.Yes. idiot pajeet kids throw fucking plate sized rocks at your car in dallas and think they can get away with it.

College related. Only 2 years thank god then I can fuck off inamountain or innawoods basically anywhere I want.

>Contingent on me actually getting in lol.

>>527405

Libshits are libshits wherever they are, they're a cult with pets off leash. Besides that, nobody is going to question what you have in a nondescript cardboard box.

>>527511

In today's world very little. One gets paid more and has private sector benefits while the other has public sector benefits. Plus generally in western nations hiring private contractors has an added tinge of plausible deniability when you have to cover up some massacre of noncombatants, whereas when that happens in the regular military usually you have to pass out advances in rank and pay grade.

>>527419

Not a public institution.

Deep Springs maybe. Check it out.

>>527511

Public military exists solely to serve private interests, and private military is an unofficial branch of the public military with less oversight. A genuine private military (that's not tied to the state at all) would be shut down immediately, or heavily infiltrated and left as a honeypot. Militias are a classic example of this, and (to a lesser extent) so are cults, communes, etc. You are not allowed to exist independently of the state. If they can't make you helpless and dependant on them, they will destroy you.

What happens if you overfill a flameless ration heater? I surprisingly can't seem to find video.

>>527511

That's easy friend. One pays you well and might treat you well. The other treats you bad and doesn't pay well but is easier to get into.

You mean taking the heating pack and putting it innabottle?

>>527813

I meant ignoring the big "don't overfill" warning.

Is the PMR 30 just a poor man’s Five Seven? Is the .22 magnum a decent round? Is it worth buying?

>>527938

I wouldn't trust .22 magnum for much, but I don't know jack about shit. In my opinion, a PMR 30 would be worth a buy just for the novelty of a 30-round handgun (that isn't achieved through a goofy-looking long magazine), but that's just personal preference, and I'll never be able to get one anyway.

>>527938

It's a fine varmint rimfire round out of a rifle. It's beyond retarded out of a 4-5" barrel handgun.

Back again, was watching a video on jewtube and the guy way loading his magazines with gloves on, is there any actual reason to do this?

>>528039

Keeping carbon and mercury fulminate off your hands.

Anybody use thin kevlar or other cut resistant gloves?

>>528040

Issued required by my work so yes.

Gay as shit can't even hold up repeated friction from cardboard, fucking OSHA.

>>528044

Can confirm, we use cut gloves and the fiberglass paper wears the rubber coating off in a couple of hours kek.

Is this gun worth the cost the cost and if so what makes it worth so much? The Magpul furniture? Trying to get an ar for black friday

Is the nugget revolver a good first gun for a noguns neet with only ~$100-200 to spend, being only $100 here? i live in 60% nigger state plz help

>>528381

>Is the nugget revolver a good first gun for a noguns neet

No. The ammo is probably going to be online only, and regardless quite a bit more expensive than 9,.38, or .45. On top of it having a terrible trigger without extensive work, and the non-existence of defense loads it can chamber safely.

>being only $100 here?

Check it again. 1895's haven't been sub-$200 for several years. If you've only got a couple of hundred to spend, buy a cheap concealable 9mm like a Taurus PT111 G2 or an SCCY.

>>528381

only $100? that sounds either super unlikely or that it's at most a paper weight. plus ammo is hard to find so i'd say no.

>>528383

>taurus

>>528385

Yeah, Taurus has QC problems. Yeah the triggers on the G2's can range from 'acceptable' to 'tactical staple gun', but I've never seen one of this model that had a problem going bang. For $200, I'd much rather have the G2 than a Ruger LCP .380 or a Hipoint.

>>528387

>still $200

Well, it was worth a shot. Classicfirearms has some commie guns on sale right now, I guess it would be worth spending a little more? Namely the Zastava is $220 and the Makarov is $55 more. I haven't checked out my local gun shops yet either.

What happened to Carnik Con? That guy blows every other gun channel out of the water and he just dissappears? Wtf?

Plz respond

>>528462

Its an alright price.

>>528460

Well shit, that was amateurish. I'll repent by doing a full disassembly on a Kel-Tec Sub-2000.

Why the fuck would you put 26 TORQUED screws in a fucking firearm in the first place? Fucking Kelgren.

>>528514

Just be thankful it isn't something you put together from IKEA only to find out you're missing one fucking screw.

>>528434

You see that AR-style gas hole just above the front end of both pictures?

These are just lower receivers. Apparently with screw-on barrels that then need to be indexed so the gas hole is on the top.

But my problem is with the first one. Why have a bullpup if the boolit is getting shoved so far forward. It's just shooting 9mm at most, with that tiny magazine. Like, seriously the action is about 10x the length of the unfired cartridge.

Also the second one has, for all the world and its appearances, two safeties. One for fire/safe, another for auto/burst/single. Seriously? Two points of failure?

>>528537

>two safeties

Yeah, that's messed up. Regardless of year of manufacture.

What do you think of Bowe Bergdahl?

I sadly don't have any firearms at the moment, but I was raised in a gun loving family.

When I was a teen(about 13-16-ish) I suffered from suicidal thoughts, and because I lived in California at the time, I was forcefully admitted to mental health institutes 3 times. Around the time when I was 17, I was deemed mentally sound and I was taken off of medication and therapy.

I'm now 19 moving in to my Nevada home tomorrow, and I'd like some sort of home protection.

I was wondering if my past mental health issues would hinder my ability to purchase a gun.

Sorry for the wall of text, and thank you for your time.

>>528659

>I was forcefully admitted to mental health institutes 3 times

This will be an issue, yes, as that's one of the qualifiers to failing a background check. You may want to check with the local police to confirm if it's still on record due to you being declared mentally sound, though.

>>528660

How would I do that? Just walk in and ask them?

>>528663

Well, yeah. There isn't a way to ask the ATF or FBI directly as far as I know.

>>528667

Alrighty, thanks friend, I appreciate the help. Hopefully everything will be clear

>>528667

>There isn't a way to ask the ATF or FBI directly as far as I know

Not until you actually get denied on the NICS check. Then you get the transaction number and a little form (or a link to the website I guess is more likely now) and get to deal with the ATF then.

>>528659

On the one hand, your court records (if any) and mental health records are almost certainly sealed, as you were a minor when you were admitted.

On the other, form 4473 states, "Have you ever been adjudicated mentally defective (which includes having been adjudicated incompetent to manage your own affairs) or have you ever been committed to a mental institution?"

Note that there is no age limit specified and it is a felony to make false statements on a 4473.

This is a job for an attorney.

I would also point out that black powder and pre-1899 guns are not "firearms" under Federal law and are quite suitable for home defense.

Please consult with qualified legal council before you go any further.

>>528712

>and pre-1899 guns are not "firearms"

Well

With felonies(as well as the NFA[unless cartridges are not in production]) in mind, all cartridge guns are considered firearms. Muzzleloaders are fine.

Is there a feature equivalent of an adjustable gas system for feeding low pressure rounds through lever/roller delayed blowback guns?

What's the best type of detachable magazine for shotgun that can be found in the US?

>>528769

>Is there a feature equivalent of an adjustable gas system for feeding low pressure rounds through lever/roller delayed blowback guns?

Spring changes, or possible changing the lever or rollers themselves. Neither of which are really in the ballpark of user-friendliness as something like a 3 position gas port.

>What's the best type of detachable magazine for shotgun that can be found in the US?

Are you asking about conversion kits or shotguns that take detachable mags already? I think the Saiga still has the widest range, since the DDI shotguns, the Cheetahs, and the Cantamounts take Saiga pattern mags. The VEPR style might be better from a strict usability perspective though, since it's a push in pull out like an AR instead of a rock in like an AK.

Is he wrong?

Autistic question about muskets and rifling:

In a Napoleonic wars era musket, what was the speed tradeoff with rifling and barrel length? Would it be possible for a shorter but rifled barrel to have better accuracy and be quicker to load, or will the powder not be able to burn well enough?

>>528833

you'll get ATF'd

NFA is a federal thing, and they don't really give a shit about self-defense.

On the bright side, depending on your state, you might not give a shit because you'll get life in prison for murdering some innocent wealth redistributor.

Having an illegal weapon will probably not help your case in court either.

The only thing self-defense can truly protect you from is getting killed.

>>528776

>Are you asking about conversion kits or shotguns that take detachable mags already?

Any you could make a new gun take.

>>528833

With the stamp? I don't see any particular problem beyond the normal "local PD will never give it back".

>>528841

With a stamp, of course but I see what you mean.

>>528843

Thanks lad.

>>528868

It would be better to have a model rip with neutral lighting. At that detail level all you'd need is

>OD Green clothes with shoulder pads (?), kneepads (possibly added by hand) and hood

>plate carrier

>leg holster

>pouch on opposite leg

>boots

>backpack

>gas mask (don't go authentic for this part. All the old soviet masks had asbestos)

>>528862

Its not good. Rifled bores are for slugs. Might as well get a M500 with a spare rifled barrel.

>>528862

Rifle bores are really only for sabot slugs. If you're playing around with odd loads a proper smoothbore is what you want.

>Probably want to do some recreational skeet/trap at the same time which is why I want to know about buckshot performance.
