Hah. I'm not coming back into the industry until I work for my self. And I'm just gonna be an 01. I'm not gonna help make shit.

The ar15 industry is the new hk. Fucking high end retarded bullshit. Yes...I'm bitter. Lol.

>AR15s and AKs exist
No. I do not see this becoming popular here.

my sks is qay enough as it is.

but does it also make the barrel 5.56?

I would not, because the cost of a cheap kit AR is less than the cost of the stock alone.

If you figure in the cost of an SKS + the stock, even more options open up.

I have an SKS for what it was designed to be and because when I got it it was cheap, semi, and kinda somewhat historical rifle.

In some ban areas or communist US states this may have a market. Maybe, if it isn't banned.

I thought about this, and being a park ranger, but what else is there? Are we really that much of niche group of individuals? is there really no other industry that can support hobbies/interests ?

>>32260132
Seems to gimmicky to me.

This Turkish M98/37 Mauser I got with bayonet for $100. It shot like shit (partly because the stock was poorly fitted to the action) and while horsing around with it playing Prussian I banged the butt on the concrete so hard I cracked the stock through the wrist. That was two years ago, and it's been in parts ever since. A couple months ago I finally got around to trying my hand at repairs, but that's in limbo now because I can't find my supply of Acraglass.

average choice

why do you want a gun? if you just want one for fun get whatever. if its for maximum cost effectiveness the mak or 92s are good. if this if for practical use get a glock.

>>32260081
>Beretta 92s
Slide will break and hit you in the fuckin face

Either of the CZs. Cheap, comfy, and fun.

>>32259952
A base model chevy cruze is cheap, simple, and effective. Is that what you want?
Analogy being this: it works, but youll probably hate it.
If you want one of their special snowflake color combinations, go for it. If not, know the trigger sucks and its a chore to shoot

>>32259952
I love mine. Fit and finish is better than most guns 2x its price. Wheter or not I would recommend it to you depends on what you want it to do.

Not a bad truck gun. If it gets stolen they replace it

Build one.

I don't have the tools necessary to do such a thing.

>>32259802
Mil-spec doesn't exist in the civilian AK market. Cost effective also doesn't exist anymore. The least expensive that I would consider buying now are the Arsenal SLR series or converted Molot VEPRs.

>>32259692
Buy cheap AK's and life jackets.

Maybe even a wedding dress or two.

>>32259692
Probably training and alot of second hand equipment. Since air is out of the question due to funds, getting some AA would be a good priority.

>>32259692

Patrol boats for coast lines, maybe a cutter or two just in case. Probably just copy the USCG as closely as I could with a what would presumably a pittance for the budget.

I'd also ally with the west to get some of those sweet, sweet training dollars and personnel, and institute a merit based promotion system and military college.

There is no better, more reliable, more customizable, or more ubiquitous handgun for the price.

For me, it is the Glock. The best striker fired pistol.

According to usinflationcalculator.com 100million dollars in 1940 is worth 1.7billion dollars today.

That means you could get 5 or 6 battleships, which would have a combined disadvantage against a single carrier.

I absolutely love mine, my only complaint is the slide release on mine was stiff as fuck from the factory and required a couple evenings of racking to get smooth. Small price to pay for a nearly full ambi gun though. If it had a dual sided mag release instead of switchable it would be up there with HKs for perfect guns. Eats fucking everything, full metal frame, excellent controls. They are really underrated guns.

>>32259343
I was thinking the same thing. I've seen all kinds of affordable guns being completed shit. But this one is something else. The quality is good and the only malfunctions I've ever had were because of really shitty ammo, and even then they were super rare.

No experience with their 9mm but a m8 I knew in University had a Bersa 45, CC I think, can't really recall other than it was a .45 Not bad. I remember being kinda pleasantly surprised at what it was for the price it was, not horrific quality. Not something ideally I'd go on deployments/missions with but if tough on cash and wanted something for around the house or something than I wouldn't not go for it.

Boyd is an interesting case. He was the quintessential "Technical Prima Donna" to use Scott Adam's humorous designation.

He was one of the crudest, most abrasive, aggressive, insubordinate bastards to ever join the United States Air Force.

But everything he said was absolutely right, and that's why everyone hated him the most.

If he called you a fucking limp-dicked faggot shit-eater (which is probably something he would actually say) it was guaranteed he had a 30 page memorandum backing up proving exactly why you were a useless shithead. And you have no rebuttal, so the only thing you can be mad at is him hurting your fee-fees.

Boyd revolutionized the Air Force for the better. There is no way that can be denied or revised.

My final opinion on him is that imagine how much he could have accomplished on top of that if he didn't set generals' ties on fire or call them fucking morons in the middle of Pentagon hallways.

I hate how Big Blue parades Boyd, Jimmy Doolittle, and Curtis Lemay as heroes of the service despite the fact they would never get to be the leaders they were if they joined today.
