They're expensive and probably not made of the highest quality material, not blow your hand up bad but probably get slop faster than a Ruger or S&W though on the same token no one probably shoots thier S&Ws much because of recoil anyway.

Pretty much if you are going to be using this on a constant basis I would recommend against it but if you just want to shoot it a couple times a year for shiggles go for it.

Is there something wrong with pic related? I'm a very recent convert from nofunz, got my first AR (M&P Sport II), first 9mm (FNS-9) and my first shotgun (Maverick 88), and this ammo seems like a bargain, but I don't know a lot about the differences between jacketing, load, etc

>>
>>32324586
It's fine for short range practice.

If you want something to defend your home with you're going to want to get something with a bit higher standards.

If you want to do long range target shooting you're going to want to buy some black hills or reload it yourself.

If you just wanna practice popping targets out to 200y it's fine
>>
>>32324606
Well the think that sucks is that most of the ranges I've been to didn't allow steel jacketed ammo, so I would be specifically buying this for home defense. If it's fine for short range does it really matter in that regard?

Hey /k/, I won't mince words.
I'm a gun noob.

How do I into the gun world?
Went into my local gunstore and felt like a kid in an adult store.

Are shotguns impractical? Why are some handguns $200 and other identical ones $1300?

Do I sign up for the range, and rent guns to get good?

Any advice to make me not a noob would be great. Im selling my satanic vidya and looking to buy soon.

Most places wont let you rent guns unless you have a gun already. Liability from suicides.

Your first piece of advice is to research a shitload. Generic reccomendation is to start with a .22, especially because of cost. You're going to need to shoot a shitload to get any good. I spend thousands a year on ammo and I'm still shit.

Do .22 rifles and pistols use the same bullet?

Sounds good, any good gun sites aside from /k/? Or should I just lurk moar

>>32324360
Learn about firearms.
Impractical for what?
Quality, Name of maker
That is one way to get better. Or you can get one or two guns and focus on becoming proficient with those.

Okay /k/. Does anyone have legitimate, actual reasoning why I shouldn't get a C39V2 RPK? Found one for $1000, and I've already got an AK, but I've vaguely heard people shit on the C39V2

I want actual shit that is wrong with it, not "well, it's an American made AK, so..." Does the bolt tear itself apart like the RAS47? Does it have any actual documented issues?

If it's absolutely the most awful fucking thing to ever exist, does anyone know of another sub $1400ish RPK style AK?

Besides a possible out of spec magwell, canted gas block/fsb, bad headspacing/soft bolt that falls out of headspace?
Romanian AES-10b. Couple years ago aimsurplus dumped their last ones for about $500. Wish I'd jumped on that train.
>>
The trunnion and bolt on the C39 series are cast metal, causing deformation and eventual catastrophic failure. AKOU has shown pics of two separate KBs on Century RAS47s (which use the same bolt/trunnions) in the past month.

At $1K, you can find an AES-10B or possibly even a kit build. Do that instead.

I live in Florida and I usually carry my knife like this every day. It sits right at 4 & 1/8th inches and I'm wondering what /k/'s opinion is on this. I can out it in my pocket so it in concealed but it's much more convenient and comfortable to keep like this. I've asked Leo's and their answers are conflicted.

In NYC if any part of the knife, including a pocket clip or sheath is visible, it's open carry and illegal. Please Google Florida knife laws and don't rely on cops or 4chan to be familiar with your state and county laws. Cops especially.
>>
>>32324062
Likewise in other states if no part of the knife is showing, including a pocket clip or attached lanyard it is considered an illegally concealed weapon.

Shit varies you really should read your own laws

The only thing being an Antique changes is whether or not you have to fill out a 4473 and ship it through an FFL.


It's the condition that'll modify the pricing.

Would not pay over $300 for that.

Make sure you check the timing and what not aswell. 300 is probably right but if its something you really like a bit more won't kill you. Not a steal by any means.

If he lives close by and can maybe throw in a couple boxes of .38, sure. They're fun little shooters.

The reason the trigger pull felt so heavy was because the body didn't have any external stimuli for pulling the trigger. It's the same reason running in a dream feels like wading through jello.

Hi /k/!

I'm writing a post-apocalyptic novel.
The main theme of the novel is the life of an exmercenary with combat stress and its constant struggle for survival, fighting agains other factions and bandits.

I want to write it as realistic as possible, so can you recommend me some weaponry?

In this world, a nuclear war wiped out the US and the USSR in some point of the 1980's, so no modern weapons after this point.

If nogunz couldn't get guns, or people were using alternatives to conserve ammo, you'd see:
>bows
>crossbows
>slings (underrated AF)
>poison dart guns/blowguns
>caltrops

I liked the grannies in Fury Road that used black powder. Plausible that you'd see some communities making their own ammo and powder; black powder is easy to make, smokeless powder and primers, not so much.

If you assume people still had access to the guns that were in circulation then sheeit, pretty much anything, but they'd be careful with the ammo.

Also depends where it's set.
>>
>>32323024

This anon has everything right. Melee weapons would be long knives, some forged after the nukes, maybe a HEMA fag's higher quality sword or two (not the cheap ones that break when you hit something), a lot of axes and a lot of spears and polearms.

Black powder is easier to make and you could expect something like flintlocks and black powder bombs to show up but like anon said percussion I'm more doubtful of. If you search into percusion muskets you might be able to set up a situation where they'd be plausible and you'd get revolvers and more reliable rifles
>>
>>32322998
>>32323024
This
I suppose it would also depend on how long after the apocalypse the setting is. The later it is the less gun use but at the same time if even later you can assume people would start making their own ammunition and firearms. Just how far in the future you thinking?

I've heard USMC is trying to replace the M249 with the M27 Infantry Automatic Rifle for all automatic riflemen on the platoon level upwards, which means canning SAW altogether. Does anyone know more about this? Does anyone have range time with this M27? Any automatic riflemen with complains about M249? Personally, this idea of essentially going back to automatic rifles doesn't make a lick of sense. Without a quick-change barrel and huge belt, you lose the capability of effective suppressive fire, now you're just another rifleman. It's stupid. No one else is doing it, that's for sure. Russians don't even have a light machine gun, they just shove the PKM and the PKP into every machine-gun role universally.

Also, does anyone have any reliable sources on how the Soviet DP-28 machine-gun performed as compared to the Bren and other LMGs of the era?
I know DP-28 doesn't have a quick-change barrel, and the pan magazine was probably unreliable, but I've never read anything substantial about that. It was phased out right after the war, unlike Bren, so it couldn't have been too good.

Well with the Saws we have a toddler with a 9mm could send more hate and discontent downrange than those overused pieces of shit. And I love the m27 everything felt just right about it. But despite everyone telling me the contrary I feels like a better m16/m4 not a replacement for the SAW. And anytime anyone in my unit heard of a magical working SAW everyone would clamor over it and have a blast with it. Its just that so many refuse to work, but when they do they work.
tl:dr IAR seems to be more of a replacement for the m16, SAW sucks becuase their all worn to shit but when we get a working one its the tits
>>
>>32322555
It is a move back to the automatic rifleman in essence. SAWs will still be available as needed. They're very unwieldy indoors, hence the desire for an "LMG" you can clear rooms with.

As the other anon mentioned new and updated SAWs are desperately needed. For the mission right now the M27 makes sense, but that won't always be the case.
>>
>>32322581
That's like saying about MG 3 is a terrible machine gun because the particular one you're using has been raped by conscript for 40 consecutive years of service. Everything that's seen abuse for decades is not going to work right. That doesn't mean the platform itself needs change. Even if they did develop reliable high-capacity mags for the M27, that still doesn't make it an LMG.
