>I don't like redundancy

Then get off this board, faggot. I have probably 12 rifles that all do the same exact thing in a slightly different way. Why do you own more than like two outfits of clothes? I mean they all just do the same thing, don't they? Isn't that kind of redundant?

Hi /k/. I've decided to buy a gun tomorrow, for home invasions and defense reasons. I'm not sure what I want yet (maybe a shotgun), but I want it to be lethal against 2017 people, so none of those weird and outdated old guns they invented decades ago. What's a good modern gun?

The mortality rate from a typical gunshot wound is only 18% I read. Those 1911 guns just aren't as effective these days, I guess. I imagine guns have made similar progress as planes, cars, and other technology over the last century.

They, and several other companies, got bought out by a capital interests group (Cerberus) and consolidated into a large super factory facility that severely disrupted production flow and allowed a cut in quality to ensue. Some are recovering, like Marlin, but the main Remington brand doesn't seem to give a shit about its low-market rifles that compete with Savage and Tikka.

This is the Brand group they keep everything under:

Atf just released a revision to the based document, I find it confusing though, I am a natural born U.S citizen and on the old one you would skip the question on being a alien.


On this one it doesn't make that clear


what do you put down for question 12.d1 and 12.d2?

Well, the guy's hat says France. The horse says cavalry. The size of the rifle then says some sort of carbine. Could be a Berther M1916 or a Lebel 1892, although that fore barrel is mighty delicate for a military rifle so could in theory be something with a custom stock - or be entirely a civilian weapon, of course.

My school's campus is going to be forced to allow concealed carry this upcoming summer. However, there are certain stipulations attached to it:
"policy requires handguns to be secured in a holster that completely covers the trigger guard area. Handguns with an external hammer must be secured in an un-cocked position through the use of a strap or others means. The safety must be on. Semiautomatic handguns must be carried without a chambered round of ammunition. Revolvers must be carried with the hammer resting on an empty cylinder."

Normally I carry a semi-auto, but according to these rules, would I be better off carrying a revolver, so I can fire immediately upon draw without having to chamber a round? I've only ever dealt with semiauto handguns and originally only planned on getting a revolver sometime down the road as a range toy? What should I be looking for when shopping for one meant for serious self-defense? Does /k/ have any recommendations? I'm leaning towards one chambered in .357, so I can share ammo with my levergun, and one that is not a snubbie, and for where I live, buying used is generally a bad idea. My budget is $1000 for the gun itself, not including holster, night sights, ammo, taxes, FFL fee, shipping, etc.

Just go with semiauto. It really isnt that big of a deal to pull the slide right after taking it out. Id rather 10 in the mag and have to rack the slide than 5 in the cylinders

In the event of a rampage shooter your first step should be to get to the ground as quickly as fucking possible and human shield the moslem girl in your class while you THEN draw your pistol.
>>
>>33028196
Jesus what state is this

Why are modern, defensive DA/SA pistols not used with bobbed hammers? The DAO guns are, but I feel they are just as ideal on a DA/SA gun. The hammer spur is an unnecessary holdover from the revolver days (and I would argue that they are unnecessary on DA revolvers anyway) that is just a huge snag point. I get why gun companies make them (for the same reason they make hooked trigger guards) by why don't those customize companies, like Wilson Combat, make spur-less hammers?

I also understand why non-defensive shooters want them, too, just so they never have to deal with the double action hammer.

>I feel they are just as ideal on a DA/SA gun. The hammer spur is an unnecessary holdover from the revolver days
ok how do you manually cock a bobbed hammer on a da/sa gun without the spur?
on a dao bobbed is fine cause you will never ever manually cock the hammer but you will with a da/sa.
>>
>>33028135
My point being that manually cocking the hammer on a DA/SA gun is unnecessary
>>
>not having a hammer spur

You need a spur to use a string or rubber band to do the full auto mod.

The only restriction I could see is city building codes or the neighborhood comity deciding you can't have it in your yard.

Daily reminder that smoothbore cannons are legally on the same tier as muskets.

Nope. I was looking into this before because I thought it'd be cool project to build. Most people build catapults for chucking pumpkins. Most of those seem like counter balanced trebuchet though
>>
>>33027889
that's because trebuchets can throw things a lot farther. the downside to a trebuchet though is that they are huge and much less transportable than a catapult.

I'm going to get my first R E V O L V E R soon.

I want a .357 magnum, and I've narrowed it down to

>Ruger GP100
>S&W 686

I realize that the 686 is a "better" gun overall, but I plan to shoot a LOT of .357 mag rounds through them. With that in mind, should I get the sturdier GP100 or the smoother, sleeker 686?

Are you doing anything to get ready in case the Hearing Protection Act passes? https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-bill/367

I've bought some parts to slap together a .300 Blackout Upper just in case; figure I can use it for durr if the bill fails. Right now, ALL the bill does is allow silencers to transfer on a 4473, waives NFA rules for the purchasers/owners, and refunds tax stamps back to later '15, and preempts all state and local laws regarding registration and bans.

A few days ago I drunkenly bid on an 1884 Springfield Trapdoor rifle in the current Rock Island auction, and promptly forgot about it. Today, I got an E-mail telling me that I won the auction. The bid was $550, which is about $650 after fees. Not sure how much shipping will be.

How badly did I fuck up, /k/?

Pic related, the exact rifle in question.
