I like the look of polished guns and have an unpolished Ruger GP100. Should I attempt to polish the gun, or would that be a bad idea for some reason? I already looked into how much it would cost to have it professionally polished if I were unable to finish the job, and that would be $400 or so. Is it worth trying?

what you posted is a 'brushed'/matte finish. Polished is like a mirror, or chrome rims.
Seeing as you couldn't even tell the difference - recommend you stay away from the cloth wheel and rouge.

Went to go apply for my Firearms ID card and handgun permit in the beautiful state of New Jersey but found out I need to be 21 for a handgun.
So now I'm looking for a rifle, preferably something cheap(Under $700). Should I buy into the Nagant meme?
First gun general, anyways

I want to go ever more minimalist so I'm thinking about ditching the appendix holster and installing a clip draw and using a trigger guard so I can start Mexican carrying. Anyone here carries like so? Any cons? Any pros?
It feels so thin without a holster I really want to go that route. Then I could carry at the gym too.

Isn't that what those /pol/acks who shot up a BLM rally did? Pretty sure the shooter's going to get life in prison.

/k/'s recommendations on what to get a 100lb girl that can put a full grown man on their ass? A pistol would be the obvious choice, but I can't afford to get her that, and I wouldn't trust her to be able to do something lethal anyway. Pepper spray seems like it'd be easy to turn on the user.
She's too tiny for me to see her able to jab anyone's ribs or face with a kubaton with her little arms, and basically she's just so fucking small that anything that requires force is a no-go. Any grown man could likely easily disarm her, throw her in their trunk like she's a sack of dogfood.
So I'm thinking stun gun. I like this one on Amazon because of the anti-grab plates. I just want her to have a countermeasure should someone try and put their hands on her. Something that's difficult to take away, and can be used in very close quarters. Above all, it needs to be able to drop a grown man.

Come on, /k/, what am I not thinking of?

Today we discuss why the A2 is better than the A1.
First. Sights.
On the M16A1, in order to adjust the sight required either a pen or a bullet, making shooting difficult if ranges change.
On the M16A2, this was replaced by a far superior dial adjustment system, making shooting easier.
Furniture.
The furniture on the M16A1 was notorious for breaking, especially in hand to hand combat. Furthermore, the handguard was hard to grip when wet, or wearing gloves.
The A2 solved the issue, making stronger stocks, and having better foregrips.
>Barrels/muzzle device.
The M16A1's prong/birdcage flash suppressor had multiple issues, such as.
>Catching on foliage.
The tri prong flash suppressor got caught on vegetation easily.
>Too easily bent/damaged.
Many M16's were damaged by GI's using them for pry bars, bottle openers, wire cutters, ect.
The birdcage flash suppressor, had issues as well.
>Threw up dust in prone.
This could easily get a shooter killed, as it would give away position and obscure sight picture.
The A2 solved these issues.
>Barrel profile.
The M16A1's barrel quickly overheated during automatic fire.
>Barrel profiles.
The M16A2, has a thicker barrel near the muzzle/gas port to act as a heat sink. As such, this advantage was reinforced by the M16A2's burst system, reducing the rate of fire.
>Fire modes.
Indeed, reports of ammunition expenditure to kill ratio on the M16A1 was 700,000:1. The A2 reduced this to 250,000:1.
However /k/ has some serious Tumble level thinking on this subject.
>"The A2 sucks!"
>"Why?"
>"Because Mahreeens!"
On /k/ apparently the Marine Corps is the equivalent of Tumblr's White, cis gendered, male, heterosexual patriarchy.
Wait... Oh! probably because /k/ is full of Tumblrites.
>tl:dr M16A2 is better than the A1.

>The M16A1's prong/birdcage flash suppressor had multiple issues
Oh did it? Because the only difference between an A1 birdcage and an A2 is that only the top hemisphere on the A2 has slots.
>Many M16's were damaged by GI's using them for pry bars, bottle openers, wire cutters, ect.
No they weren't. Military armorers thought that was what was happening, but they later found out that wasn't the case.
>The M16A1's barrel quickly overheated during automatic fire.
So will the M16A2's. The way they 'fixed' it was with the 3 round burst FCG since they didn't apparently have the time to tell the conscripts how to shoot.
Nice meme thread, guy.
>>
>>32599371
>Barrel profile.
A2 didn't have thicker tip of the barrel because of it.
It was because paratroopers complained that it could bent if they had rough landing. Also bayonet fighting but if they were so concerned about bayonet fighting they would never use something like M16 in the first place.
>The M16A1's prong/birdcage flash suppressor had multiple issues, such as.
A1 only had birdcage suppressor, earlier models did have the 3-prong ones sure, but not A1.
As for the dust - yeah, that was a problem
The furniture part is also bust, A1 already had stronger stocks. Frontguard shape is a thing tho.
Sights are semi-correct, the problem with them in general was that army wanted several setting but didn't want soldiers to lose zero accidentally so they went for the bullet thing, but to be honest the prototype-style flip 2 settings rear sight(similar to that of early M1 carbines) would be better than both of those.
I'll give you 5/10

That's completely wrong. Can you provide a source that anyone said that?
