/k/ time is of the essence
Is $1000 a solid deal on a brand new MPR8?

I've seen em for 800 my dude

You are paying too much no matter what you buy it for
I guess. S&W's website says the MSRP is $1329
Anyone else actually looking forward to these? They look like a nice simple carry gun.
Cautiously optimistic.
It's aesthetic, I'll give it that.
I think theyll hit it big with the female market after an months
Never underestimate the ability of the female mind to match colors to her outfit
looks very spacey, like something an astronaut would carry in an ankle holster
Okay, so I'll never be able to fucking own one of these. Just too poor. But I know it's very popular and has a lot of clones.
Are any of the clones worth it? What are the cheapest, yet most reliable 1911 clones on the market today? What do YOU trust?
If the clone is parts compatible then that's extra great in case of needed repairs.
If you're specifically looking for a government model clone, Inland Manufacturing makes a decent A1 model. The only difference is it has an added firing pin safety.
MSRP is around $780, but it's easy enough to get them around $650.
Auto Ordnance also makes a good quality and faithful clone for ~$600.

Any model would do, as long as it's cheap. I wasn't being humble when I said I was poor. I can't do 700 dollars man.
a classic weapon
What is it?
a m1 garand. ww2
This is a real weapon
If World War 3 started today, with the "Axis" powers being Russia, China, and North Korea, and the "Allied" powers being the United States, the United Kingdom, and South Korea, who would be better equipped to win?
Obviously the Allies
US has overwhelming air and naval superiority.
Also, Japan and France are most definitely joining the allies.

Nukes fall everybody dies.
Were they a good idea?
>>34098362
They worked so I'd say yes.
Probably, they would be on Ian.com if they weren't any good.

Did the stick increase throwing distance enough to justify the extra bulk compared to a spherical grenade?
Hey /k/, new2gunz here. Can we get an optics thread going?
If I'm shooting for sport/hobby what's the minimum I should spend on a red dot sight (basic bitch AR)? Just feel sort of lost with options ranging from $30 to $3000. Obviously if like best MOA or accuracy or whatever but am honestly a bit overwhelmed. Help a newfag out?
Also, optics general for discussion of sights and scopes your hard kore /k/ommandos are salivating over n such
Depends how far you are shooting, what gun it's mounted on, how good or bad your eyes are, shooting environment (such as inside a range or outside shooting and climate) durability and battery life.
I have an EOTech on my ak, and it works just fine. However I basically only shoot indoors at a 100 yards max, and my eyeballs aren't too great. I've unintentionally dropped my whole optic rail on a cement floor and it stayed zeroed.
I'd say aimpoint is a pretty safe choice for red dots. If you have astigmatism holographic sights might appear fuzzy or "star bursty".
Also its best to throw more money at ammo, and use irons than getting a red dot.
Also for MOA, 1 or 2 are probably the best but again like I said it depends on what you are doing. Scopes should be 1 moa or less if possible with 1/4 to 1/2 MOA adjustment knobs.
I really like my Redfield and they aren't too expensive.

Try holosun I have one on my ar and runs great

All women are the same wherever you go.

American *culture* is a global phenomenon, all white women with Facebook and Netflix are now American women.
It's over, go home.
George Armstrong Custer was a Major General by the age of 23.
What have you done with your life so far?
>>34096882
it didn't take a whole lot to be a general back then. Usually having lots of land or wealth guaranteed you the title.
I own land and a "house" at 26, and only have to work 3 days a week for Internet and rates.
26 kissless virgin here.
STOP REMINDING ME.
I could have been a man at arms or even a squire if I was in the medieval era.
Just came across this guy on YouTube, and he seems pretty decent. What does /k/ think of The YankeeMarshal?
>>34096350
gay
A complete fucking idiot with no actual real world experience or knowledge spewing trash logic that he thinks is right just because he came up with it. All while calling other people more knowledgeable and experienced than himself names while making a silly voice to try and make them sound stupid while himself credible. He doesn't even shoot his fancy expensive guns in the videos. Just stands in his garage with a shitty background talking about shit he knows nothing about..... Also clearing buckets. Look it up, dumbest shit I've ever seen. Ugly fat gay fuck. Look up Paul Harrel, actually been in some shootings and has good practical knowledge.
>>34096350
I came across him about 2 years ago, and his videos from around then, and earlier were fairly decent, so I subbed. Over at least the last year or so, his content went to shit. He no longer showed anything interesting, and all of his videos turned into clickbait and holier than thou ranting.

What are some practical applications for full-auto? Why shouldn't we be allowed to have that capability?
I'm debating with a buddy, who sees no reason for citizens to be able to own full auto, while I say that we should absolitely have that right. I'm not a soldier so I have no experience or qualifications to talk about fire suppression which is the only thing I could think about.
full auto is a meme, a fun meme but a meme nonetheless
>>34091357
We should have the right, but it's worth mentioning the only thing it's good for is wasting ammo.
Get a slide fire and a hair trigger if you really need a way to inaccurately waste ammo.
>>34091357
Maybe you like wasting ammo or something. I can't really think of a good way to use full auto. Maybe it could scare off some critters? But then you'd best just shoot them on semi.
How much strength would it take to lift someone up with a poleaxe?
Also is pic related realistic in terms of combat?
>>34084867
exactly as much as it would take to lift an equivalent weighted object with a non-axe pole.
No.
>>34084867
What is going on in that picture?
>>34084867
Yeah if your seven feet tall with muscles from the character the mountain from game of thrones then yeah as long as your doing that to someone who is five feet tall and skinny as an asian male.
What's the current state of US's nuclear defense and what's your stance on it?
Is it automated like Russia? Were any improvements in technology made since the 80s?
/pol/ couldn't even answer the first question so I'm asking here.
Uh, fine? Approximately appropriate for a credible first strike posture.
Russia's is not automated, automated deterrence is an autistic meme. Conducting a nuclear war is not the thirty second countdown to Armageddon it is often implied to be, constant coordination, decision making and bargaining is required. Automating your deterrence is idiotic because when responding to a strong, successful and unanticipated first strike blindly retaliating is moronic. The enemy will trade every bomb you drop for five until you're forced to capitulate.
As for your tech question, improvements in fuzing on the US SLBM warheads has lead to a big increase in US counterforce capability compared to Russia who are still having major problems updating their ICBM / SLBM inventories.
http://thebulletin.org/how-us-nuclear-force-modernization-undermining-strategic-stability-burst-height-compensating-super10578
Improvements in warhead yield are politically pointless anyway, but guidance and fuzing improvements are a big deal. ICBMs historically have huge CEPs which limits their use as counter force assets and restricts SLBMs to counter value retaliation. However with the new fuzes and planned manouvering warheads the US can use them to attack military targets reliably while Russia can only realistically expect to hit CNC bunkers or reinforced Silos with air dropped or larger unitary ICBM warheads.
Effectively the US can realistically threaten to win the exchange, or will soon be able to, and in planning a response Russian decision makers would be faced with a choice of pointless revenge descending in to unfavourable tit for tat city trading or capitulation.
>>34078451
>Is it automated like Russia?
Russia's isn't, their missiles are probably require far more man hours to make launch-ready than ours too.

Oppenheimer, please just trip again. Yoi were the epitome of what a tripcode was for.
My opinion at least. Thanks for the info.
