South Korea is known to be close to exporting the K9 Thunder self-propelled howitzer to Finland.
Military authorities of the two nations plan to carry out a performance test in Finland this week and sign a memorandum of understanding on the export. The two sides are said to be planning to sign a formal pact at the beginning of next year.
The size of export for 48 used K9s and the transfer of maintenance technology is known to be valued at 400 million dollars.
The K9, which has a maximum range of 40 kilometers, is one of South Korea's core weapons. Some 900 of them are deployed in South Korea's northwestern islands bordering the North and elsewhere. The weapons played a key role when North Korea shelled the South's Yeonpyeong Island in the Yellow Sea in 2010 and have been exported to Turkey and Poland

Is it crewed by specially trained dogs?
>>32098983
Aren't K9s just gooked-out Panzerhaubitzes?
what is the best pocket 9mm regardless of price?
>>32098552
Depends.
>>32098569

Now that the dust has settled, how mad are you that you didn't get a first gen Tavor?

It explains everything.
>>32098550
My range had a 9mm one that I used the other day
the optic was set to far back. Fun gun though.
sorry, yesterday was tavor tuesday on /r/guns ;)
Hello /k/. I'm writing an action scene for a tv show and it has got parts that I have no way of testing myself, so I'm doing research.
I'll start with tl;dr and then expand on it.
1st tl;dr what happens if a bullet hits a rifle magazine? Does it burst? Does it bend? Does it get torn out of the rifle?
2nd tl;dr what happens if you shoot at a grenade? Does it get thrown away by the impact? Does it explode? Does it matter if it's shaped like a tube like M84 or if it's a classic pineapple like Mk 2? They seem to be thick enough and light enough to just be thrown away.
The scene is urban. MC grabs the rifle from one the thugs in a close quarters engagement. He's not properly equipped, no holsters or vest or gloves (this is important), but he's got a spare magazine. So he gets into cover around the corner and is shooting back, kinda like pic related, but I can't find the exact stance. A stray bullet hits his magazine in the rifle. Now I see it as a flashy image. The magazine bursts into plastic splinters sending bullets and parts of spring flying everywhere. The upper part with sharp edges is still in the gun and MC goes to change it without looking. He cuts his fingers on it and doesn't realize it right away because of the adrenaline. Then he notices it, but still powers through to get the broken mag out and put the fresh one in.
Now, obviously not all guns will do, because you don't have to grab M4's mag to get it out and you probably won't find a SCAR-H on a thug in ghetto. So I'm thinking AK. Now what would happen to a classic metal magazine as opposed to newer ones?
Thank you for your time.

Sometimes I LARP as an advisor to other LARPers so I'm going to help. If a bullet hits a magazine, it probably won't work anymore because the spring will be fucked or the rounds will be stuck. Basically shooting a magazine puts a hole in it. If you shoot a grenade pretty much the grenade won't work anymore because it will have a hole in it.
If your Master of Ceremonies grabs a rifle from a thug and a bunch of things that make no sense continue happening up to the point where the Master of Ceremonies realizes he has a cut finger. It's possible that there will be blood all over the gun and magazine making it slippery to hold or the Master of Ceremonies may need to grab a band-aid. What was the race of the thug? Is he Irish?
bump for interest
>>32098307
Got no idea for grenades, but if a magazine gets hit close to the feed lips the spring pushes all remaining rounds out. Lower than that and you get a stuck magazine.
If you're extra unlucky it might set off a round or two, but the biggest risk you'd face from that is the heat.
Beretta cx4 or civvie H&K Mp5
Which is the better 9mm pistol carbine?
>>32097352
cx4
looks like a hipoint carbine with 30 rd mags even has similar iron sights
>>32097352
Beretta is ambidexterous
That matters to some people
>>32097388
Newer models use px4 mags, so biggest is 20rd
Only older models use the 92f mags and can hold 30
But you could only choose one.
Mine is the Fucile Armaguerra Model 39

My dad has a model 81, but both of us really want a Model 8 "Clyde Barrow Raper."
This homemade .22 revolver.
Hey /k/. I've trying to choose a long range hunting rifle, but I'm getting conflicting information regarding calibers. I'm trying to rank calibers by:
1.) how much energy they'll have at 1000m and
2.) by general accuracy at 1000m
So in general terms could you try ranking these?
>.260 Remington
>.270 Winchester
>6.5x47 Lapua
>.308
>7mm Remington magnum
>.300 Winchester magnum
>>32099641
You're out of your fucking mind. How about learning how to reliably hit a pie plate at 200 yards and then get back to us.
>>32099655
I can hit a gong at 800m with my SCAR 17S you FILTHY TRIPFAG. Kill yourself tripfaggot.
>>32099641
If you don't know the answer then why the fuck are you asking?
You DO have a shower gun, right /k/?
>>32099610
And don't tell me you don't have a tactical poop pistol taped to the inside of your toilet.
What would you do if a rapist broke in to your bathroom while you're defenseless and pooping?
>>32099679
>What would you do if a rapist broke in to your bathroom while you're defenseless and pooping?
probably throw my shit and them and use the toilet lid to beat him/herto a bloody pulp
>>32099725
Excellent plan. But you do have a shitpost-defence gun, right? I mean, how else would you defend yourself if you were caught off guard shitposting on a Cantonese cross-stitching board?

He wants to both reduce US military presence around the world and increase the number of personnel and equipment. I think its stupid and wasteful.
>>32094502

Youngfag here, looking to buy my first mosin nagant (either a 91/30 or a 44, it really matters whichever I find at this point). In the state of Delaware, what would be the highest I should pay for a good mosin without them jewing me?
>>32091860
$350. Don't expect one lower than $250 these days though.
Also, you probably shouldn't be buying milsurp if you aren't a collector.
>>32091913
http://www.southernohiogun.com/longguns/surplus-longguns/russian-mn91-30-762x54.html
I would honesty say to stay away from Mosins now unless you were serious about collecting milsurp. Not only have the guns doubled in price the past year or so, but surplus ammo is drying up as well. Commercial x54R runs about the same as .308, and decent bolt guns can be had for just as much as Mosins are going for now.
So if you actually pan on using this rife regularly or to hunt or for anything other than plinking really, it makes more sense to just get a modern gun as they will be more accurate and much easier to maintain.
Argue about these things. I love jeff cooper and I love the concept. Argue my /k/omrades!!!!
>>32090156
>7.62x39
>scout rifle
Also, no. I'm not investing a single shekel into non combat viable guns. I can have a SPRed 20-22inch AR.
>>32090156
What's there to argue about? It's an idea straight out of the mall ninja fantasy handbook.
Jeff Cooper was a low functioning, autistic alcoholic fudd who's ideas and concept are as irrelevant and laughable today as they were decades ago.
>>32090266
it gets worse when you look at the rifle he had made to fit this role, the steyr scout.
I mean, you can get a HOWA for like 1/3rd the price and it will be better and lighter.
Anybody else go shooting today? Sister came back before mountain school (eventually marine OCS) so went out to kill some sticks. Tell me /k/, would you shoot with us?
>>32088138
with her? sure. you look like a noguns faggot. hopefully she taught you a thing or two.
I have no one else to shoot with so yes.

Hello /k/
I am looking to buy a full AR-15 before the year is over. My budget is 1k can you guys make some suggestions for me? I dont want to buy a piece of shit
PSA is good and cheap. Be prepared to wait for shipping a bit.
>>32083943
ruger or m&p. ought to be able to find either for about $600 with black friday sales, spend the rest on ammo, mags, possibly an optic.
M&P15 should do fine.
