You get one gun of your choice and one fully loaded standard magazine/clip of your ammunition of choice.

It must be something you can feasibly carry around on a hike. What do you choose and why?

So anons... what sort of distances do you shoot when you go to the range? 50 yards? 100 yards? standing or from the bench? What's an acceptable range and target size to be able to shoot at from standing?

its sighted in but i think maybe i didnt tighten up the mount enough. Then again, I was having a really hard time keeping the crosshairs lined up the whole time so i think its probably just me being really terrible at shooting.

it's a normal DPMS AR, they shouldnt be that inaccurate shot to shot at 100 yards, should they? I'm new to the platform, is there anything i have to do differently in regards to shooting form as opposed to fuddguns? i used to be pretty accurate with a levergat a few years back.

do i just suck?

25, 50 and 100(max for my range). Benched and standing both supported and offhand.
Prone on cold concrete covered with brass is uncomfortable and I don't have a mat, don't really know why I don't do kneeling/sitting.

Tbh I've never really cared for precision shooting or long range anyway and don't have a pistol or a place to do the dynamic/tactical shooting and drills which interests me.

So I take this shit with a grain of salt, but I was at the gym with my uncle who had just ETSed from the army. He was army SF. I was exploring my options since I was in high school, so I was asking him questions and shit. So I was poking fun and was like "yeah anon, I'm sure you did some secret shit huh"
He looked at me and smiled and said "yeah, nothing like Virginia group though"
And I looked at him and was like what do you mean? And he was just like "nothing anon" with a smile. So Idk if he was pulling my dick or not but I've been in the army for almost 4 years now and never heard anything else about it.

Just start saving for bulk ammo, I seen them go as slow as $350. Though I do recommend more mags.

Which absorbs more energy, kevlar or steel plates?

I hear all the time that sometimes it's not even the penetration that kills you, it's the impact of the bullet. I also hear that level 3 and up armor is pointless because the impact of say, .308, will just kill you by sheer force, doesn't even have to penetrate. How true is that? Would having kevlar vs steel play a role in that at all?

Go to bed, lad.
>>
>>33528816
Ok time to put some of this to bed. Do you have a neck injury, really bad anemia, or geriatric brittle bones? If no the armor you wear will stop whatever it is rated for with some badass bruising on your side with minimal lasting injury if anything actually hits hard enough to knock you down. That said shotguns do suck to get nailed with but so long as it impacts as armor life only sucks for a few days. I vaguely recall some annon showed level 4 plates stop a 338 lapula and that or the 375 h&h are about all I would worry about for impact shock as anything stronger will pen level 4 and the smaller mag barrel burners are rare enough to notbe much of a worry

so in a changing world climate, I'm starting to feel less safe without owning a pistol. I've been doing some research, but it's kind of hard for me to fully understand the laws that are in place, at least in washington state.

when I was 19 I beat the shit out of my ex-girlfriend(dw she deserve it), ended up with two misdemeanor DV charges(assault and malicious mischief). from what I understand, these charges may keep me from purchasing a firearm forever? is this true? seems a little bit harsh to be revoked the right to defend yourself over a domestic squabble. some answers from someone who's familiar with/more able to navigate gun laws would be helpful.

What exactly did she do?

Because if she cheated on you, you could've easily just screamed at her and cut all ties, rather than "beat the shit out" of her.

Did she cut your dick off? Did she kill your parents or harmed your family?

Now imagine your self with a gun + your justification of "she deserved it". Because if you shoot and kill your future girlfriend or wife over stupid shit, owning a gun is the least of your problems.

why did Chigurh use a silenced shotgun instead of a pistol? i know it's a movie, but i ask this to see if there's any justification for such a setup ever as it was fairly badass.

None really. It does make for an interesting 'signature' weapon, they weren't going for realism with much of the gunplay.
>>
>>33528386
Lower pressure means less noise potentially. Higher chance of a one hit stop.

>>33528386
Because it looks unique and intimidating. When you think of suppressed shotguns you think of Chigurh, and that's what matters to hollywood.

FUCK WHO DID THIS IN THAT OTHER THREAD?

Why doesn't anyone make a reproduction Garand? There's obviously a market for that gun, and there's a plenty of manufacturers making 1911s, AR-15s, G3s, etc

Is there?
There's a market for The Real Thing, but would people shell out equivalent prices for a modern repro? It's not a cheap gun to make. They tried that with the Luger back when, and it didn't take off.
>>33527927
Also not easy to sporterize or Tacticool. Muh Rails and all that.

There's a few companies that make single shot bolt action .50bmg uppers for AR-15 receivers for not much more. Look into those.

Hey all,
I've been looking into CCing while riding my motorcycle and have run into a snag when it comes to gloves and trigger guards. I know it'd be easier to buy a pair of gloves that fit a normal sized trigger guard but it would also be nice to find a pistol with a larger guard too.

With that said, what pistols are out there that meet these criteria (in order of importance):
1) Large, glove friendly, trigger guard.
2) Controls that are easy for a gloved hand to manipulate (alternatively minimal controls)
3) Compact or pocketable sized.
4) atleast .380 cartridge or better power/ME.

While we're at it, what shotguns and rifles are glove friendly?

Look for gloves that accommodate for a thinner thumb or index finger.

Look into pilot gloves. They are missing the tip of the index and tip of the thumb to allow for the use of switch boards. Good ones are expensive, but are made for extreme cold due to the altitude changes. Expect to pay at least $40 for a good pair, but you will like them.
>>
>>33527191
Issue with that is that it defeats leaves digits exposed to the flesh grinder that is asphalt at traffic speeds.
>>
>>33527250

There are some gloves where the index fingertip is removable. If you're too scared to expose your two fingertips on one hand to the asphalt should you ever crash, those are your other option.

You're not going to find many compact guns with a HUGE trigger guard unless you have a gunsmith make one, which likely won't happen. There may be one, but I look at compact guns a lot because I was shopping for my CC not too long ago, and I found none like you describe.
