I'm always amused by the perverse incentives created by gun control laws. 17 rounds of 9mm vs 6 rounds of 357 is a tough choice with some pretty big tradeoffs for the revolver. But when the law changes the calculus to 10 rounds of 9mm vs 6 rounds of 357…

First M1 Garand school shooting when?

>M1 Garand

>not conducting chimp control in public schools with a martini henry

>>585332

Damnit. Now that you said it they gonna take away my CMP rifles.

>>585332

this

9mm is already obsolete, but when 10 round limit is federally mandated, .45 and 10mm will utterly dominate the market

>>585341

in fact, that may be the moment when 10mm becomes the cartridge it was meant to be

I advise new shooters to use a revolver because its more idiot proof. In street conditions its always more reliable when equally maintained as an autoloader, You don't have to worry about new shooters not carrying a round in the chamber because they are uncomfortable, the heavy double action is safer than DA auto loader, will work better with someone who doesn't clean every time they shoot. Its a better choice for the youngins, if they have to ask you should carry a revolver. When you no longer have to ask, then you can make teh choice.

I carry a 1911 in a shoulder holster, but I carry my M-27 quite a bit. Part of this is, you tell kids to carry a revolver and they go "but you carry a 1911, so why shouldn't I go with a pistol" so part of it comes down that if I carry a revolver, it sets a precedent for teh kids.

Also I live in a rural area that has some of the lowest crime rates in the entire world. Unlike many people who carry and never shoot any animal or person with a handgun, I live in the country where I have an extremely high possibility of shooting varmits in the yard, we have to kill some every year. Ye ol M-27 with full power magnum loads is accurate and flat shooting, good for this purpose, not just self defense. Its a good choice for killing a man attacking, or a skunk or racoon in the yard at longer ranges.

Also if you reload a lot, its easier to shoot revolver. You don't chase brass, you just collect it calmly for reloading. With my lead capturing system, remelting and casting of bullets, i can shoot light 38 special loads for cheaper then 22lr. I have boxes of brass I've used several times, all still int he same box I bought the factory rounds in, same lot and everything. Chasing after brass eats shit, I should be shooting more auto loader and more pistol carbine in auto loader, but fuck it.

One day I know I should save up the cash and buy a Mk23 like I know I should. I sitll carry my shoulder rig 1911. But the revolver is not quite as obsolete as one would think, and still has its advatnages.

>no flag

Of course a filthy gaijin would start a dumb thread of a topic we have discussed for years and years when an actually new and original, thought provoking thread would be how the AK is superior to the AR in every way

>>585365

As in the film Zulu? To prepare children for the race war? I've been saying for years now that all Australian children should be forced to visit some Aboriginal communities. Not some watered down bullshit but a true blue blacks camp. It would inoculate an entire generation against marxist bullshit.

The hat makes it perfect.

I live in California so I need a device that doesn't take mags that can wear out because they want to background check those too. Also have you ever thought about situations where you don't have the time to top off all your mags such as nig riots. Being able to stab 2 or three shells during a lull in the shit flinging volley will help greatly and of you have a revolver, shotgun, lever gun/sks/cz58/bolt gun combo of some sorts makes you impervious to having to have a long down time. No fags you still need to dump ammo into neat rows for speed loaders and no one is going to carry the actual fast speed loaders because they're usually big as fuck and require a table/flat surface. show me a compact speed loaders that can slam more than ten rounds of a real caliber in a mag at once without needing the ammo to already be in a stripper clip all the while being no bigger than the size of the average handgun pro tip: you can't and if you aren't a cowboy action shooter then you're not ready to wear those pumped up kicks

>>585461

how would you conceal carry that though

>>585468

>the sidefeed AR clip

For what purpose?

>>585470

Do they they think that taking a little longer to load a magazine makes the gun less … gunny? I'm still not sure what they're trying to achieve with their laws.

>>585446

i don't this in effect people have kalashnikovs and ARs in California

(of course they are cucked versions of it)

>>585472

When was the last time you guys had a pro 2a president?

>>585485

I don't think we've had a truly pro 2a president since Teddy Roosevelt.

>>585483

How long until you have to order parts of a gun months in between, and then have a police officer watch over you as you assemble it in California?

Serious answer to a troll thread-

Handguns are the weapon of opportunity. You carry one for the off chance you need a gun but can't have your long rifle for one reason or another. For concealed carry, this means that a gun that is the most powerful you can handle that will kill the target with the highest capacity will serve as your stand in for your AR, the most obvious choices here being a powerful automatic handgun. For innawoods, though, you may need some stiffer medicine for the large game and spoops that live in your area. Only one auto cartridge is capable of doing this- the 10mm auto (when loaded properly), and it is limited to .41 magnum levels of game. 44 and above however are regarded well as bear guns- one Elmer Keith swore by his triple lock 44 special that he fired stupid hot loads through for his to hell and back gun.

Until we see something matching 44 magnum in an autoloader within reasonable carrying size, revolvers still have their uses when you want shit dead and you want it dead NOW.

>>585328

because they feel good in my hands and when I fire them you filthy flagless midget.

>>585458

Yeah I see you're trying to make me cry with the fact that I can't get it even if I had the shekels for it I've already shed my tears for the shit gun laws

>>585468

Forty bucks a pop and only holds ten. I'm wanting a bolt gun that takes mags yet still lets me top off. I know that this feature is something fudd rifles tend to get split on as either mag fed only and top off by removing said mag or just getting sporterized milsurp and using stripper clips so no removable mag. I know that some lee enfields are capable of this but does anyone know if there is a new production gun in a more common caliber? Or do I say fuck it and buy a bubba'd enfield

>>585472

>They're even trying to limit ammo purchases

First parts are already happening which is no online ammo sales delivered to your house but to an FFL. Ammo ID card and ammo background checks starts in 2019.

>>585471

Obviously the ones in charge know what they're doing but I have met regular libs who actually believe that limiting the amount of ammo in a gun works. Even if you mention pulse nightclub and how it took cops 3 hours to actually get to the place giving Omar "loading mags and dropping fags" Mateen (PBUH) more than enough time to execute all the queers even if he was pretending his sig was a martini henry and loading single for everyone.

>>585489

Soon if this new law passes. It's called something like the "precursor gun part" ban and makes it so things like barrels, BCGs, and of course mags, require an in person purchase (no Midway USA/Primary Arms) and a background check for each "precursor part".

>>585496

>the 10mm auto (when loaded properly)

.45Super can meet or surpass the original Norma loadings with better pressure and better sectional density in the bullet. Yes 10mm is more prolific, but 10mm that isn't warmed over .40S&W is just about as rare.

>>585446

>pistols

fuck off

>>585532

>no mention of federally mandated 10 round limit

>>585534

>The ban also defined the term "large capacity ammunition feeding device," which is commonly shortened to "large capacity magazine," or high capacity magazine. These were defined by the assault weapons ban as magazines, belts, drums, feed strips, or similar devices with a capacity of more than 10 rounds. It restricted the transfer and possession of large capacity ammunition feeding devices except for: those made before the law's enactment; and those made for, transferred to, or owned by the U.S. government or a U.S. law enforcement agency.

You will not it says "magazine", not "longarm magazine"

>>585542

>any new mags

glad I wasn't dumb enough to be born in time for that gay shit then

daily reminder to stockpile mags

How thight do charger guides need to be to work? Could the same one in a pistol handle both 7.65 Borchardt and 10mm Auto based cartridges?

>>585565

the coolest part about that swiss obrez is that the barrel comes to the end flush with the ferrule on the front of the stock. It's like a mini mannlicher stock.
