Because if you kill your enemies, they win.
Or something.

What pistol would you recommend to a beginner to learn how to shoot and maintain? Preferably under $500.

Specifically a glock 19.

just open carry an dont be so scared
Just realized that I only buy guns in snowflake or meme calibers.
>.204 Ruger
>6mm Creedmoor
>.300 BLK
>.40 S&W
>20 gauge
I didn't plan it this way. It just happened. I've shot loads of 5.56 and .308 and .30-06 and .270 and 12 gauge and 9mm and .45 ACP but I never buy them.
Anyone else strictly meme-tier?
>>33480865
.40 and 20 gauge aren't snowflake
>>33480871
No but they are meme-tier
300 BLK isn't snowflake it's just relatively new. You just wait, the US military is gonna adopt guns in 300BLK and it will be everywhere.
Is everyone who served a War Hero™?
No
POGS are pathetic pussies.
Only 11B and 0311's can be Heroes
>>33480783
If they tell you they are, then they are not what they say they are. Not.
No, you're only a hero if you did something heroic.
Go read what Medal of Honor recipients did to earn their award. Good examples of war heroes.
Out of all the safety mechanism (or psuedo safeties) on firearms. What is your preferred type?
Pros and cons of each type?
I'm trying to look at it from a design standpoint. Selectorswitch on a shotgun would be weird, but perfectly acceptable on a saiga.
When I'm handling a Glock, I always feel like I'm doing something wrong because there's no safety to put on
IMO every gun should have a manual safety switch, with the exception of revolvers
I really like the multi-directional safety/decocker switch on the USP

Despite being objectively better than keymod, I seem to be having a lot of trouble finding a Gucci ar upper receiver with mlok. All the mlok ar uppers seem to be made by no-names like mega arms and aero precision. The gucci makers all seem to opt for keymod or quadrail. Does anyone know of any that do produce mlok uppers?

I know this is a stupid question, but why isn't it viable to create some kind of bullet armor that can resist to high caliber bullets, like the ones you see in some sci-fi movies?

It'll be more viable when exosuits become common. Until then, shit's too heavy.

>The Kremlin's Zircon missile has been called "unstoppable", "unbeatable" and "undefendable" with a 4,600mph speed that only one defence system in the world can destroy – that system is owned by Russia.
>The Zircon has been in testing stages this year and would be capable of destroying the world's most advanced warships and aircraft carriers in one strike and could be put into action by 2020. The US Navy warns it could be fitted to Russia's nuclear-powered Kirkov warship, where it would have a range of up to 500 miles.
How can all other countries even compete?

>https://www.shephardmedia.com/news/landwarfareintl/sofins-french-gign-gets-new-rifle/
>The French National Gendarmerie Intervention Group (GIGN) has ordered a new standard issue weapon. It has selected the Bren 2 assault rifle from Czech company CZ. The company told Shephard at the SOFINS exhibition that the GIGN has selected the 7.62 x 39 mm version of the rifle and placed an initial order for 68 units earlier in 2017.
>Additional procurements are slated to take place in the near future with the aim of replacing the majority of the H&K 416s currently in service.
>The decision to adopt the Bren 2 was the result of a process that began in 2015 after the Paris attacks in January that year. Faced with terrorists equipped with bullet-proof vests, French gendarmerie and police intervention units found that 9 mm weapons had little efficiency in such situations and that 5.56 mm ammo lacked the necessary stopping power.
>The CZ spokesperson said that the GIGN identified a need for a new weapon able to fire a heavier bullet. The 7.62 x 51 mm calibre had the suitable characteristics but the weapons for this calibre were considered too heavy and bulky for efficient close-quarter combat.
>Thus, GIGN decided to evaluate assault rifles chambered in the 7.62 x 39 mm calibre instead and undertook trials throughout 2015 with a variety of weapons.
>CZ's offering was only proposed in the latter stages of the evaluation program. Throughout the better part of 2016, the rifle was intensively tested in a variety of situations and was found to be the most reliable and efficient weapon within the panel of rifles tried by the GIGN.

>The CZ Bren 2 was developed from the CZ 805 Bren S1 to take part in the French Army Future Infantry Weapon (AIF) programme (which saw the selection of the H&K 416). However CZ was unable to participate in the process as it came in too late. Development on the Bren 2 continued nevertheless and the weapon has now been selected in its 5.56 mm version by the Czech military which will use it as its standard rifle instead of the original CZ 805.
>The Bren 2 7.62 x 39 mm version selected by the GIGN is a compact assault rifle with a nine inch barrel. It comprises a handguard with Picatinny rails which allows for the fitting of a variety of accessories and aiming aides as well as collapsible telescopic stock.
>The GIGN has requested some modifications for its own rifles which comprise a new flash hider designed to be fitted with a sound suppressor. Some of the rifles procured by the GIGN also include a modified gas regulation system allowing for subsonic shooting. The weapon is fully ambidextrous and despite its short barrel, retains its full precision at a range of 400m as confirmed during the GIGN trials.
>CZ is now pitching its P-10 pistol to the GIGN. The company has also offered its Bren 2 7.62 x 39 mm rifle to the French Special Operations Command (COS), arguing that equipping Special Forces with such a rifle would allow for easier interoperability in the field with local forces in Africa or the Middle East however it has not managed to generate the expected interest so far.
