What's better than a 9mm Glock as a CCW? After looking into how they function and their safeties, they seem to be extremely well engineered, and the most optimal choice for carrying. They aren't unique or expensive so getting taken away by the cops after having to use it doesn't matter at all. You buy a Glock 26, carry 10+1 with an extra 10rd mag, have loaded 15/17/33rd mags at home for home invasion-tier shit going down, buy it with those trijicon night sights on it stock, and I don't see what could be better. You can carry it and use it as a HD/SHTF sidearm. I don't see a downside. I can pocket carry one of these things because they're so stubby. I want someone to convince me otherwise before I buy one.
Every point you've made is why I only carry a glock 26 and will be doing so until a gen 5 glock 26 is released. Every other alternative I've tried was larger than the glock 26 and the benefits weren't large enough for me to switch.

Walther PPQ M1.
how is this tiny little baby dick round supposed to fucking kill anything let alone a squirrel
it's BB gun tier and quite possibly worse than airshit and shouldnt even be classified as a firearm
>>32448726
>shouldnt even be classified as a firearm
that would be amazing
It bounces around inside your skull you dumb faggot.
I'm stuck in Australia for the forseeable future, which means I legally can't own any semi-automatic shotguns, pump-action shotguns or semi-automatic rifles on my standard longarm (A/B) licence. But I still want something reasonably quick-firing in a respectable magnum handgun cartridge that I can use for plinking or hunting medium game.
I already have a .22LR Uberti Silverboy, which is pretty good for my rimfire needs, but for this next gun, I was thinking something along the lines of a revolving rifle or pump-action rifle. Maybe an Uberti 1873 carbine, an Alfa Proj carbine, a Rossi Circuit Judge, IMI Timberwolf, something like that.
What does /k/ recommend?
>>32448646
Get a Remington 7600-series, they're pump action rifles available in a variety of calibers that will accept 5-10 round mags.
>>32448914
Indeed. I have a 7615 and it's great fun. Would also suggest a Marlin lever action (had one in .44), and (for shits and giggles, an Adler 110 (admittedly not ever owned one).
Are you allowed to have a lever-action?
alright /k/ i have $1k to spend on a handgun. I'm leaning toward pic related or a glock 40. do y'all have any other options i should consider or should i just kms?
>>32448586
Don't think, just buy

I finally decided to take some beginner lessons at a nearby range and im actually fucking shaking. Wat do?
>>32448219
Lmao fucking pussy
Is this before the class?
Stop being a pussy.
After?
Yeah, that happens. get some BBQ and drink a beer.
>>32448219
I was at a range with my former 0311 buddy, and my new wife.
Grandma walks up.
>oh just looking to shoot
Put on my fedora,after me ma'am
Help her sign up
>show her how to set up targets, and shoot her gun somewhat properly.
I teach an old lady to.shoot, we hit up Chipotle and I go balls deep.
God bless America.
Over the holidays I reinstalled Battlefield Vietnam and after playing a few of the SOG missions I thought, "man, I kind of want a Smith and Wesson model 19" after watching a hikcock45 video I've decided I REALLY want a Smith and Wesson model 19. I've never owned a wheelgun before, is this a good first one? how much is a good price to pay for one?
>>32448145
I have a model 29 (.44 mag)
It was expensive but so, so fun to shoot.
For a beginner revolver I'd recommend a heritage rough rider .22 or a j-frame. Would be a bit cheaper to shoot.
>>32448203
If I was going to get a revolver it would be to shoot something more powerful than my glock. I like the idea of being able to shoot .357 or .38 special too.
I just want something that gives me a huge 70s boner. Something that if I were forced to pull it on someoned I'd also be forced to say "back up turkey, or you are gonna be takin a one way trip to trouble town sucka!"
The Model 19 is a masterpiece. It's accurate, has better balance in the hand than the L-frames that succeeded it, and it's extremely aesthetic. Furthermore, holsters and accessories for it are, even now, incredibly commonplace and inexpensive due to the Model 19 having been one of the go-to police guns for several decades.
There are three things of which you should be aware though:
1.) Model 19s are not cheap. Unless you get extremely lucky, you are not going to score one that hasn't been run hard for below $500. One that is in good shape both mechanically and cosmetically is going to cost you at least $650 out the door.
2.) Model 19s were not built to shoot Magnums constantly. The intended usage schedule with the 19 was mostly .38 Specials for practice with 158 grain .357s for carry and occasional use. The result is that continuous use of hot 125 grain Magnums (ie the kind that achieved the reputation for being a manstopper) on a Model 19 will eventually cause the forcing cone to crack/the frame to stretch.
3.) Smith and Wesson made a stainless version of the 19 called the Model 66. It's a lot easier to care for as it is not blued.
If you want to avoid some of the problems mentioned above, you should look into the current production Model 66s. The current Model 66s can be had for ~$680, which is only marginally more than a 19 that's been shot a fair amount. Furthermore, Smith and Wesson has substantially improved the durability of the new Model 66 (thicker forcing cone, much much stronger lockup) so that it can actually handle regular Magnum use without eventually failing. I would highly recommend considering it over an old 19 if your prerogative is having a good time shooting as opposed to just collection.
can anyone help identify this uniform? it was my great great grandpa, I know he was born in Hungary but never knew he served.

Can someone tell me why the fuck the NPAP is so bad?! I recently bought and really want to shoot myself. It punches you in the cheek after firing a single round and is constantly not cycling?
I hate magpul on AK's but that will cure the cheek slap. Not sure what's causing it to not cycle, try oiling the rails or something.
>>32448057
Yea thats a good idea, and i also forgot to mention the gas piston is a bit loose
Get an actual yugo surplus set, those don't have the retarded shape of the NPAP stock.
> This is the kind of people that would realistically come at you in an apocalyptic scenario.
That's a good part of why I own guns

It's a hand me down dmr. What's your problem with it?
The PLA's new LMG unveiled.
Looks pretty light and seems to be able to use magazines as well. The thick chrome barrel looks dope.
Seems like China really wants to westernize their troops.
A replacement for the QJY-88 LMG, which was rumored to be too heavy for what it did.
This comes after the release of photos showing the conventional rifle replacement of the QBZ-95 family of bullpups.
