Anyone have a good source for .44 magnum barrel blanks or finished barrels?
Need a barrel about 18-20 inches long since I'm considering making a .44 magnum jungle carbine because it will hopefully require no work on the bolt.
No finished lee enfields will be harmed since I will be working from a reciever.
Green mountain is the only source i've found. You may be able to make a Handi rifle barrel work.
You will need to know the Barrel shank Diameter
Thread pitch and angle
How similar is .303 and .44 mag in OAL and case head diameter?
How similar are the rim thicknesses?
Does the ejector need to be moved
I'm extremely curious about this, give us more details.
What are you doing for a magazine? Would probably actually be easier to set it up to run deagle brand deagle mags than to mod a 303 mag.
I plan on getting a rifle(unsure of brand and model) that shoots Winchester .300 magnum. What do you all think? Also where can I find a good scope with decent magnification without breaking the bank? Pic semi-related

What?
Who settles on a caliber before choosing a brand?
>>33169059
Someone who hunts or someone that has a host of other calibers and is looking for a specific feeling of a new round.
Hey /k/, remember this?

weird how they did the minigun audio, has a lot of bass, oddly enough
Were they shooting at God?

I love it, even though it's not real it's such an iconic sound along side the pulse rifle from Aliens and the smart gun. One thing I loved about the original Aliens vs Predator for PC was how they got all the sounds right.

Speaking as someone who was enlisted intel in the Army and got headhunted for contract work:
You still need a degree. For contracts you need a 2 year degree, for federal civilian you need a 4 year degree. The former wasn't always true, I knew a few guys who got decent gigs at CENTCOM as analysts without a degree. Around 2011 however DoD decided that contracted intel people had to have at least a 2 year degree. People who didn't have them but were currently contracted were told to start school within six months or they were going to be let go.
A TS/SCI is worth a lot to contractors because if its not lapsed they don't have to pay for a new SF86+investigation. But you still have to meet the minimum hiring requirements which now includes a 2 year degree.

Pnw meetup. Washington/Oregon fags get in and discuss where we're going to do this thing.

Prineville for the win. We should totally do it in August. Maybe in the Bend/Redmond area, since it's near the center of the state so other Oregonian can come, and there's lots of BLM land to choose from.

Thoughts on this?
TLDR: proposed executive order explicitly stating AR type rifles, 30 round mags, and a few other rifle types are suitable for civilian use and people should be encouraged to own and train with them.

Really? Nothing? I was incredibly excited when I read this
>>33167727
IMO, need an EO mandating that surplus rifles and pistols of the US military will be handed out to the civilian militia instead of destroyed or distributed to potential enemies overseas.
>>33167727
It'd be nice but I haven't seen anything about from any other sources other than that and reposts from that. I'll wait until one more publication reports on it independently to get very excited.
7.62x39 is the most aesthetically pleasing bullet to look at.
