The Garand, the rest were upgrades of WW1 rifles or not issued in enough numbers to fully test and iron out any bugs.

>>35128966
if the STG or FG42 were more widely issued, they'd be ahead by a large margin but the Garand was there first and had a great edge over bolt guns

I keep 28 in mine. Never an issue

Its an AR you'll be fine
Me on the other hand got an AK that came with a basic bitch MOE mag. Wtf were they thinking? That mag needs metal for its catch.

i keep mine full and ready.
why store ammo in paper boxes when i've a shitload of magazines to store the ammo in?
protip: magazines were designed to hold ammunition

The way I see it, a bullet's energy is kinda like is kinda like a battery. A bullet uses a bit of energy getting to it's target, then the more it has on impact, the more it can do depending on what it is designed to do, for example a hollow point carrying more energy can expand more, or an FMJ can penetrate (or fragment) more. However you have to beware of certain formulas like the Taylor Knockout Factor or whatever it's called because I crunched the numbers once and discovered that a shot put is four times deadlier than a .950 JDJ

Terminal ballistics, especially in regards to low velocity pistol rounds, is the definition of an inelastic collision and therefore kinetic energy is not conserved due to the deformation of the bullet AND the crushed tissue.

Include the fact that a .22 has 95 ftlbs of energy and a .357 has 500 yet a shot to a vital structure is not 5x more effective with the .357.

And the same is said with a shot to an extremity. A .357 is still not 5x more effective than a .22.

And that's in absolite terms. Shit gets murkier when we start comparing service pistol calibers ot worse, different loads and bullet weights within a caliber.

Shot placement is king. Penetration is queen. The rest is angels dancing on pinheads.

You don't live in northern VA do you? Got this for $300 at a fun show yesterday

That one of the cop trade ins?

Just picked up a Taurus model 85. Wanted a snubbie for a while and it fit the bill. Butter double action with an amazing single action pull

Kebabshit CZ and Walther clones in 9mm and .40. Apparently pretty good for the price point, but I wasn't too impressed with the fit and finish when I finger-fucked the TP-9.

Made in Turkey by Muslims. As a general statement, in the same way that Christian business owners often donate their money to churches, Muslims often donate their money to mosques. Mosques are often only 1-2 degrees of separation from terrorists, and many funnel money to terrorism. The guns are not that high quality, so I don't really see the point.

>>35127824
Don't give Turks or any Muslim your money, same goes for Jews

i almost bought one of those but i honestly couldn't think of a use i might have for it.

nice knife though. how do you like it?

Single stage is reccomended for beggeiners simply because its simpler- and cheaper. Theres
One turret and it forces you to focus on one step at a time. That being said, if you take the time and effort, theres no real reason you cant start with a progressive.

Reloading isn't something you should get into for saving money, it's not worth it. It's a labor of love that allows you to understand and appreciate your firearm and the way you shoot it on a whole other level.

progressive takes a good bit while to set up and change if you are new.

Start with a single stage, like an RCBS rockchucker, then if you want to load high volume, get a progressive. Save the single stage for load development, precision loads, decap only, or other shenanigans.

Turret presses are ok I guess, but with quick release bushings being a thing now, they're sort of pointless IMO.

Let god guide your bullets

Holosun and primary arms red dots. Primary arms variable magnified optics.

Correction. Newfag here. Skynet bullshit autocorrect

You would need an FFL, as there are no private sales under the SAFE Act, obviously.

This, and you'll also look like a autist doing so.

I hope you've lived in that area for 20 years because unless you know the terrain better than we all know OP's mom, you're fucked.

Fuck going into the Rockies after September, let me tell you that right now.
>Winter training exercise, 0degrees F
>8,000 ft elevation (not even that bad)
>snowshoeing with packs (infuriating)
>Sinking in snow up to your asshole
>socks frozen to feet
>At night, can't sleep more than a few minutes at a time, wake up from shivers
>At one point, bolt up out of my bivvy in the middle of the night certain that I'm either going to puke, shit, or both from the cold.
Also the plains in winter are a miserable shithole too but at least survivable in an environmental sense, but an invading army would be BTFO in the open expanses there or long before, considering the strategic depth that Colorado enjoys.
