I'm looking at pistol instruction in my area and I'm wondering if it's worth it. There are the basic safety courses and new shooter courses which seem like they might not apply to me since I've been shooting for almost a year now, know and practice the four rules very well and TD everything from spray bottles to the scanners at my work, then after that there's an intermediate pistol course, which is 400 dollars for only 3 hours. I can only think of how much ammo I can buy for that money (and how much more fun that is)

Not gonna lie part of it is to appease my nogunz family and friends who say shit like "you need years of experience and training to carry a gun", and while telling them to fuck off is much cheaper, I do also want some hands on instruction on my stance and grip technique. My groupings could use some big improvements.

It's a waste of money.
Make friends with someone at your range who knows what they're doing and ask them about your stance.
>>
Try a local competition or shot with someone very experienced, they can teach you what you need.
I took a competitive shooting course after competing for a while.
Didn't help me that much, it was all simple stuff that anyone can think off.
Also after getting good you can dryfire to get better.

Who is possibly worth $400 for 3 hours of training? Does that come with some one sucking your dick the whole time?

What are you wanting to get better that?

> stance and grip technique....better groupings.

Spend that money on ammo, go out, and shoot. Then shoot some more, then some more. Then once you have a good understanding of why you suck, then you will know what to ask to learn how to suck less.

Grand Strand. Because it's become little New England and all the people my age and people I know have pretty much bounced. I love the mountains, I'm sick of the beach. I was a grunt so I'll probably sleep in the woods and whatnot around the mountains upstate. Dunno what I'll do from there but I gotta get the fuck outta here

Bear with me here /k/, but the Germans had the MG34 that was a roller delayed, select fire gun with a progressive trigger. Why did they waste huge amounts of time and resources developing a new semi-auto rifle and then assault rifle when they literally had the solution to their problems sitting right under their noses? This makes is even more confusing because they eventually went with roller delayed operation with the STG45.

A mag fed rifle using an MG34 operation system would have also fufilled every autistic requirement Hitler had for the G41/43 rifle too since no gas port would have to be drilled in the barrel for it to function.

>>34131467
The real question is why did they produce any other gun besides the STG44
>>
>>34131502
Because the StG44 has a long and involved R&D process that meant it wasn't ready for full rate production until late in the war and they required arms for their infantry in the interim.

I'm honestly curious why using roller delay never caught on outside of their MGs tho.
>>
>>34131502
the problem was never the amount of guns it was the ammunition. they never truly had enough ammunition for the stg44.

This. Mini is a great rifle, reliable action, easily disguised as a fudd gun if you get a wooden stock.

Might have to move there for work. Any Detroit based /k/omandos? Heard there have been some recent pro-gun laws being pushed there. How does it compare to the rest of Michigan in terms of gun rights?

You will need a gun for Detroit, yes

>>34131076
Moved out of Detroit about 8 months ago, I was working for Ford at the time. I had my 2 ARs, a Glock 19, and a bunch of other random rifles, shotguns, and handguns. It has definitely gotten a lot more gun friendly since the population started to drop.

>>34131076
It's fine, no one gives a fuck if you have a gun. We may become a constitutional carry state soon, if not it's still shall issue and easy to CC. All NFA items are legal, no mag restrictions or AWB bullshit. Pistol registration still happens unfortunately but if you happen to ignore it the punishment is a civil infraction (traffic ticket) of $105 or something. Detroit is probably the most progun big city around.

Whatever gun is on my desk at the moment tends to be fondled if I'm not doing anything. Safety goes on if it has a safety. If no safety, I clear it. I can probably take all my handguns down and put them back together blindfolded by now.

Is hunting deer or elk with a shotgun much different than a rifle? I've only ever owned rifles and pistols.

AR-15 failure thread

My EagleArms (division of Armalite) Eagle-15 has developed a very dangerous habit of double firing about every 3rd shot I take. It didn't have this problem before but, I've just returned from the range where I found that when pulled the trigger it would go bang just the one time, but when i released the trigger, a second bang would occasionally occur. I'm super pissed about this. I've function checked it and taken it apart and done all but wrap caution tape around it. it appears to be just very, very sensitive on reset of the trigger. If you don't rapidly release the trigger and do so very smoothly, it tends to release the hammer again.

Anyone have these sorts of issues?

(I've sent an email to EagleArms and called the Cabela's where I bought it already. I'm going to send it to them to look at ASAP)

They may not be the absolute best, but it's not like they are jam-o-matics. I've had zero problems, but I also don't do 600 yard shots to notice an appreciable difference between mine and some gucci upper receiver.

For an entry AR you could probably do worse. AR is a good design, it's not like they inherently suck. If its your first gun it isn't a bad choice.

Their $100 4150V nitrided barrels are more accurate than their FN CHF chrome-lined barrels.
