With all the hub-bub about global warming, are there any actual meaningful military or strategic implications of global warming for the US, relative to the strategic rivals around the world? Arguably the majority of the US is landlocked, so would the US actually be as significantly impacted militarily as, lets say, China or most of Europe?

As far as I know, the US has no major population centers or strategic military facilities anywhere near any coast lines with the exception of a couple of naval bases in Virginia and Hawaii...

Is it normal/okay to love a firearm made by a country you hate, used by a country you hate, or used for shit you disagree with?
Is judging firearms by their country and usage ridiculous? Should you only like firearms for aesthetics and function?

So, if Depleted Uranium is used for it's density and hardness in munitions, why can't we use pic related for hollowpoints or conventional bombs (powdered this stuff is highly explosive with oxygen)
It's a radioactive waste, so we actually save money by producing it into something.
It's brittle which is good to get fragments, and it's chemical toxicity is like lead on steroids.

So, gentlemen.

Today I went through a rather interesting experience and I figured I'd share it with you degenerates.

I inhabit a third world shithole completely forgotten by god and all other deities around, and it is a shithole in which firearm posession is generally frowned upon, and obtaining related items through legal means requires you to be a special very unique kind of collector retard in the military.

As you can probably figure since I'm posting on /k/ I'm definetly a retard, but not a retard in the military collectors shitlord guild. So I decided, since it was my only real choice, to build a percussion cap fired 28 gauge muzzleloader.

Among other monstrosities I built during the drunken miserable coke addled trip I call life, I had several 12 and 20 gauge striker fired break barrel shotguns built from expediently hardened mild steel stock. And recently the local state serving brainless fucks in the military police contingent caught me driving drunk as fuck with one of those artifacts in my shitbox funmobile.

To make it all brutally clear, I need you sons of bitches to present me with reliable ways of hiding a rather large cache of a very special sorts of materials and projectile firing tools, otherwise I'm getting locked up and raped by rabid negroids.

I had the do/k/ument fully downloaded but I lost that hard drive in a rather intense fire episode.

Hey /k/ I just bought a brand new cz 527. I spent 900 canuck funbucks on it.

Anyone have experience with this rifle? I'll mainly be shooting copper washed military surplus steel core ammo out of it.

If I can get the parts, the upper and the trigger group will fit, right?

I'll get steel bushings put in the rigger axis holes to prevent egging that happens like with the Colt LMG upper.

I have no idea why I would fail, but this is pretty embarrassing. Not sure if there is a way to even check why I was rejected. What can I do to clear this up?

I'm thinking about finally getting my own rifle. >pic related
I'm picking the Mosin because meme, but also because I hear bolt actions are relatively easy to clean, I live in California, and I want it for hunting.

My Questions are:
>Is ammo easy to get in the Bay Area?
>Is it actually easy to clean?
>Good first rifle?
>Is $319 a good price?
>Suggestions instead?
