Just got a free rifle that was stored in a garage for 20 years. How do I clean the junk on the bolt off? There's also surface rust on the barrel, screws and other bits. How would I clean that off?

I mean if you don't mind losing your Finnish you could use a wire grinder brush.
Or just steel wool

This, or electrolysis.
Who here is interested in wildcats? I am trying to find a few interesting pistol wildcat cartridges. So, that being said, if you could choose on wildcat that you think would make the ultimate full size combat pistol cartridge, what would you choose? I'm looking (hopefully) for something thatd work well for someone with smaller hands, but I'm interested in all suggestions.

Necking a .50AE to 9mm would probably make it capable of piercing iiia armor.
Plus, its the practical limit of how big a single-stack magazine could comfortably fit in a hand.

Occasionally I have nightmares when I need to fire my revolver at shit
it either ends up as a light primer strike or an off center hit.
all because some asshole fucked up their Glock, lied and sold it to me.
anyone else have weapon related nightmares

I'm surprised people tolerate fucked up Glocks.
Unless he sold you a used Glocknade... that could explain it too

There is a kind of dream not associated with any real world event. I
call it the Universal Warrior Nightmare. The most common version of the
universal nightmare is to dream that you cannot get your gun to fire. The gun
jams, the bullets dribble out the end of the barrel, or they bounce
impotently off the bad guy's chest. The puppy, your midbrain, your
unconscious mind, sends a message into your dreams that says, "Boss, I'm
worried. I'm afraid it might not work." Well, who would not be worried?
Many of your brother and sister warriors have such nightmares and there is
nothing wrong if you are having them now or you get them in the future. But
there is one thing you can do that has helped many warriors to make the
dreams go away: train. The puppy is worried, so to calm him you teach him a
few new tricks or polish the old ones. Train hard so that he feels confident.
Lt. Col. Dave Grossman, On Combat
I had one where I was full on hitting a dude in the head with my machete and it just wasn't having any effect. It's a subconscious reminder to train more.

I know a lot of people on /k/ have rare guns but does anyone else have a Glock? I like Glock. Has anyone buried their Glock? I was thinking of torture testing my Glock but I don't want to damage it. I'm sure it will still work if I bury it but will it damage the resale value? I would never sell my Glock. It looks good with oil on it. I don't want to ruin that.

I personally would say the FAL is my favorite of cold war era battle rifles, however I have one large gripe with it
>Accuracy
Why are they so much less accurate than a M14 or G3 (or their respective civilian equivalents)

So what exactly is going on in California that people are in a frenzy to buy guns? Should I convert my AR I want to sell to CA compliance and send it down there? How do I get in on this? I don't mind profiting off of Calicucks.

Hey, /k/. I'm not much of a sword guy, so I come here to ask what is the difference between a cutlass and a sabre? Thinking about it, they are generally used in the same time period and the same part of the world (Europe around 1600s?) but I could be wrong.

A cutlass is shorter and used in shipboard action.
A saber is primarily a cavalry weapon meant to be used against people on foot. As such, they need to be fairly long.

Cutlasses are generally shorter

Sabre is generally longer. Cutlass seems more of a sword used nautically wear as a sabre seems more something an officer or someone on horseback uses.
I just screwed up really bad at the range today. Probably going to sell my guns and quit.
I was at the range by myself, at a range that doesn't have a range officer. Two other guys show up and take positions on the other side of the range. They reverse their truck up next to the shooting benches so they can lay down in it's bed and shoot prone. It's a 200 yard range, it's dark and raining; they are wearing dark clothes.
They keep running out on to the range while I'm reloading to change targets without telling me, almost gave me a heart attack when I go to start shooting again and see one of them went onto the range without saying. I can't even see them half the time they go onto the range because of their clothes and the weather.
They're shooting from the bed of the truck where I can't even see them to know where they are. When I call a cease fire and return to the line they don't even always respond when I ask if the range is clear.
I call a cease fire and go to change my target. Return to the line, one of the guys is at the shooting bench with his guns like he's good to go. Don't see the other guy on the range. Didn't bother to ask if the range was clear because of them not responding. The other guy had just been shooting from the bed of the truck where I couldn't see him so I thought he was there. The guy had decided to go and run down to the end of the range and I couldn't see him. I could've killed the guy. Knowing that they had been running out without telling me before I should have been looking out. I should have kept asking if they were good to go even if they didn't always respond.
I've been shooting for years and have never made a mistake like this before and never thought I would screw up this badly. I'm absolutely mortified with myself and I think I'm just going to sell my guns and quit, that is way too serious of a mistake. Does anyone have any suggestions on the best place to sell guns?

I don't have any land to shoot on.

>>32169176
Yes you should have kept pestering them so you're partly to blame, but If some dude is not following the safe range procedures, not keeping up good communication with the other shooters, then they are the ones being dickheads not you. Think about what happened, use it to remind yourself that you can't always count on others to follow the rules. Its the same as driving. Are you going to quit driving and sell your car because somebody ran a red light and you t-boned them? Nah bro, you're ok.

A customer of mine entrusted me with his grandfather's m1911 he carried in Europe, and again in the Korean conflict... she was a dirty bird she I got her, and the slide release wasn't working. After a fun evening of enjoying this national treasure she's 100% ready to rock. I didn't even charge the guy to do it. The honor was payment enough. Pic very related.

>defense? you've modified it to kill effectively proving you wanted your neighbor jamal toenter your home when you taunted him and left your window open and your vehicle in another location!
they will string anything together, only modify "because it wasn't useful before" like if you're really fucking small or expect a small wife to use the shotgun, you can then put on a pistol grip and argue that in court

M&P pistols vindicated, haters can hate all they want, but macs failures in water were clearly not the gun.

It's still a gun that feels like crap in hand. For that alone I won't carry or use one.

>>32168460
So, dunking it in water = MACs torture test.
No, I don't think so.
>>
>>32168631
The issues only happened after the water bath... I still think it was crap ammo with hard primers... Mine would have a bad time with hard primers before I got an extra power striker spring.
