So I recently got my 3W laser shipped direct to me from China. To give you some context on how strong this laser is, it's extraordinarily dangerous to simply play around with due to the possibility of the beam reflecting off a surface and hitting me in the eye. To actually shine it directly into one's retina is roughly 3,000 worse than staring into the sun in midday so the possibility of permanent eye damage from toying around with this awesome toy is quite high.
Can this serve as a decent self-defense weapon? Or should I just stick with pepper spray? Sorry, I live in Chicongo and as such actually getting a CCW is pretty much impossible.

You're gonna try and wave a laser pointer at someone's eye in a high-stress, frantic situation?
Good luck, man. I mean that. I want to read a news article titled "Man Blinds Group of Muggers with A Laser."

i really dislike that. when i go shooting, its usually atleast 4 or 5 hours. some guys bring 100 rounds of ammo, shoot it up within the first 45 minutes and then just hang around.
>>
yea, that's an asshole move. You should've brought up how you didn't even get a chance to shoot his ar15 (which I am sure you don't really care, but it's the principle), and after the shoot, never go with him again.

Given that the majority of the 150+ aircraft shot down over the past two decades, have been hit by unguided anti-tank rockets why hasn't there been an effort to make purpose designed, unguided anti-aircraft rockets for current platforms (like the RPG-7) or even for totally new platforms for the purpose of close range air-defense/denial.
Counter measures have almost completely nullified the effectiveness of heat seeking missiles, and the effectiveness of more modern designs is questionable given that they've never really been successfully employed in combat conditions. Unguided anti-aircraft rockets on the other hand would have the advantages of needing minimal training, minimal maintenance, minimal cost(in comparison to MANPADS), fire and forget ability and would likely be easily adapted for other uses if need be, such as having a removable fragmentation sleeve for anti-infantry usage.
Better yet, if used along-side heat seeking MANPADS and given sufficient ammo they'd make the airspace around an infantry unit a nightmare for helicopters to operate in denying low and high altitudes and keeping the rocket detection warning radar constantly buzzing would seriously degrade a helicopters ability to fight even without hitting it, its hard to do a gun run when you're constantly flying evasive maneuvers after-all.
do you think unguided AA rockets are a plausible idea /k/?

Um wtf? We have no use for infantry AA since western doctrine is built around owning the skies long before infantry are ever deployed, so airspace around US infantry is already "a nightmare". If by chance we ever did need an infantry unguided rocket for AA, existing inventory (AT4, Carl G, etc.) all are superior to the RPG. The reason most aircraft die to unguided stuff is because the people who have guided missiles are going up against enemies with access to aircraft and the people who make extensive use of CAS arent going up against people with guided missiles. MANPADS have been used to great effect in Syria.

This is sort of a special purpose niche. Major weapon systems come from a few counties with large national armies. Weapons like this would be more useful for insurgents fighting a larger force with air superiority.
However, I would like to see more of theses in civilian hands.

I lack stripper clips and have an innate need to fire this rifle. Bought it from a co-worker for 40$. The gas tube was rusted shut when I got it. A punch set and some clp fixed that. Then i just blasted the barrel throat with solvent and scrubbed the shit out of it and it functioned fine.

What's the best place to source old, beat to shit Mosin stocks? I'm doing a Metro Kalash reproduction, and the handguard appears to be a cut up Mosin handguard. I'd really rather not cut up any existing milsurp to do this.

What more present day weapons does /k/ think Starwars characters likely use? Would the darkside or the lightside have western or eastern weapons?
What I think, assuming the darkside makes eastern weapons:
>Jango Fett: twin Walther PPQ M1 5" slide or possibly two APS if CIS would supply them
>Boba Fett: VSS if the empire would give him one or a suppressed 300BO AR15 SBR
>Han Solo: Tec9 wielding drug smuggler
>Imperial Troopers: AK105 and PKP
>Rebel Troops: M4 variants
>Droids: AKS74U
>Clone Troopers: M16A4
>Tuskan Raiders: Surplus Mosin Nagants and Lee Enfields
