Well for one if they want young ppl to be more interested in guns you have to make them affordable and I don't mean gun owners affordable I mean normal affordable

and other than the VERY basic guns like .22, or milsurp or basic pistols, most aren't that affordable for a 20 something yr old student, all the fun or cool looking guns are anywhere from $600-$2000, unless they like old milsurp guns which I love, but most of the cod/halo generation loves their shit to be Tacticooled out with every fucking gadget there is and those guns aren't very affordable to a 20yr old kid plain and simple

But I think a good way to market the gun community would be to make it seem like it's a young adults community for guns kinda like /k/ is for online, where it's ok to talk about your favorite /k/ related vidya games, movies, clothing, airsoft/paintball, and even weeaboo shit like animu and riafus etc etc,

instead of a community where all the boomers just talk about hunting, and only hunting rifles and hunting gear, all while drinking PBR with a gut and chewing tobacco which desu is most of the gun communities in North America, at least here in ultra liberal Canaduh land

The tacticool crazy over the last decade or so has brought in loads of new, young, shooters. If anything we need more young 'hunting and outdoorsy' types of shooters as well as people interested in historic and vintage weapons; most tend to be old. Most people I see at the range who are under 40 have primarily 'tacticool' guns, or at least modern ones. But I guess these new people will branch out to other areas of interest as the years go by.

I agree with you about the Scandi shooting culture, it was good and blended shooting with outdoors sports and skills like skiing. I don't know what it's like now but it was an example of good 'organised shooting' as opposed to individual shooting (which I believe should always be the cornerstone of shooting; just being able to go out with your own good self, or a few friends, and your guns to shoot however you want).

I'm in the UK and our shooting has always been too much towards the organised side, with shooting clubs and things like that. It's not good for gun rights and it's not good for shooters either, it causes stagnation besides being incredibly limiting. Our shooting culture would be much healthier if people were able to get out onto land with rifles and just shoot however they wanted, of course that depends on where people live and there's sadly relatively few places where that's really practical because of how over-crowded the whole place is.

Had one
Heavy piece of shit. Do not buy.
The grip gets cut up easy as well.
Mixed serration/ straight edge blades suck.
Way too thick.
Glassbreaker is unnecessarily large.
Sheath is also a stupid, overbuilt piece of shit.


If you want a decent military knife, get a Benchmade Nimravus or something (available in tanto or clip point, straight or serrated, tan or black).

If you want a survival or EDC knife, get something different all together

Good to know. Thoughts on the Nimravus vs. Warrant?
Pic related.

>>32900406
Not sure man haven't actually used either. I just know Gerber isn't that good, granted it is a more budget brand.
If I'm ever unsure of something I normally check amazon reviews, and a couple of youtube videos (ideally a comparison video).

What's the knife actually for?

Guess his wife's bull checked him for getting too riled up.

He can protect himself.

What happened

>>32900238
Because the 500 and the 870 are the closest?

>>32900243
But am 870 new runs almost $900, while a new 590 is about $700 and the 500 is pretty much half the price of the 870

>>32900252
>new 870 is $900
I don't know what "friend" gave you that deal, but you got ripped off.

norway has a military?

Already happened, but now its going out of the hands of the homeguard too in favour of the hk416. I'm just saying, you never know when the enemy is hiding behind a fridge...

How about Shooter TV series?

They even have AK-12 stand-in.

How expensive is the 416 that HK needed to make a new rifle?

What's Sig Sauer bidding for the replacement rifle?

This starts world war III

>>32899871
Aegis and CWIS kill the missiles. But, before that:

The CSG notices the Chink potmetal boats.

The Prowlers shut down signals.

The Hornets kill the potmetal tubs.

>>32899894

you mean notice like the chinese diesel sub that penetrated the carriers screen undetected back in 2011?

sure saw that coming, well they knew it was there once it surfaced a mile from the carrier mocked the failure of the US navys defense, and submerged and disappeared.

>>32899808
in most states you are supposed to declare that you have a firearm in the vehicle upon being pulled over. The easiest way is to put your hands on the steering wheel or dash then tell the cop "I have a gun on me"

in some states you don't have to have any special dispensation to carry a loaded gun in your vehicle so that varies

stating that you do have a weapon isn't grounds to have your vehicle searched but normally the cop will have you either exit the vehicle so he can clear you or have you reach over with your non dominant hand to pass it to him grip first.

the last time i got pulled over (speeding 16 over) i said i have a gun on me the cop responded with "yeah me too big deal"

>>32899808
/k/op here, just say no. Don't agree to any search. If they don't have probable cause to search the vehicle, don't hand it to them on a silver platter. Even then, having guns in your vehicle isn't illegal so that wouldn't be PC unless you don't have a valid firearm ID card (depending on your state).

Why were you breaking the law to be stopped in the first place?

It can carry 4 Verba MANPADS, which has a 20% longer range than Igla-S.

Ukraine should buy this so they can blame Russia on shooting down planes again.

>>32899638
Famamlam, we all know it was a Russian supplied sam that shot down the airliner.

No sense in denying it. Nobody cares anymore anyways.

triples confirm gents

"It's a piece of shit, but it's actually a great gun."

Holding the Sten by the magazine can bend components and cause failures to feed, of which the Sten had plenty.

holy shit.
