Let's say the US military decides to switch from the M16 to a whole new weapon platform by 2017. What do you choose?
must meet following criteria:
>developed and manufactured by a US-based company
>not too expensive
>uses standard ammunition
>is easy to train on
>simple and reliable mechanics
>can't just be a different AR (like a piston AR or something)

Mossberg 464 SPX in 30-30
How do I tell my dad about wanting to get a Mosin? He's kind of a christian-cuck (muh 10 commandments) about having a gun in the house but isn't an anti-gunner libtard.

That maps not right
I need someone here with six hexmags to take a picture of them with a piece of paper that has 2932 written on it
>>32001864
Perhaps.
You will be a life saver
I have 20 hexmags. I also have a broken FDE one.
Just tell me why.
I'm thinking about a Walther PPK/s for concealed carry. How much should I pay? Anything I should know about the gun?
>>32000478
>I'm thinking about a Walther PPK/s for concealed carry.
Rethink this
>>32000478
It's a brick and you're not Bond. If you must, .32 fmj flat nose from Fiocci.

Don't buy a Smith & Wesson PPK. They are shit.

Maybe I'm just a fudd but I don't see any reason to put $2000 worth of parts on a patrol rifle; I qualified with a used Glock with misaligned sights, and I made it through sniper school with a Remington 700 with a fucked up reticle in my scope, so am I wrong to think that some overpriced gear isn't going to turn me into Carlos Hathcock?
>>32000099
What do you do for a living?
Nice gear is nice. Not a necessity.
>>32000099
>$90 rear sight
Shouldn't a basic magpul MBUS be around $60 with in store mark up?
It's pretty basic and seems to work.

has anyone else's love for firearms been destroyed by working at a fun store/counter?
daily being asked
>why is x more expensive than y?
>any idea when your distributor will get x back in stock?
>why is the barrel tilting up like that?
and, I swear to god I got asked this once,
>what's the difference between 9mm, .40, and .45?
I think things were made worse by working in a department store that sells guns, rather than in a dedicated gun store before, because I worked in one before and I don't think it ever seemed so bad as it does now
>>32004833
All of those are literally expected questions in retail.
I worked at starbucks, do I hate coffee because I got a million people asking me what the difference between decaf and regular?
No. I did my shit job and answered it a million times back, and I drink my coffee as if I'd never been employed there.
You should accept the fact that some people know nothing about guns, just be thankful they came to you to buy one. We need more on our side.
>>32005159
this
>>32004833
I think you'd be happier if you just left your job. Clearly retail isn't for you.
Russian guns and ammo for everyone.

Talk about the times when you almost died. Either in the field or at home. Pic unrelated.
Op here, I'll start:
Tonight I fell 40 ft free fall when my belated had some fucking episode. Only one of my close friends who managed to jump on the rope in time saved me from some injury.
Nearly strangled belated when I got down.
I was in the Ozarks riding UTVS with no helmet and I nearly tilled over twice , those giant rocks could of crushed my skull
Car wreck. Almost slammed into a oak tree. Paramedic asked how I didn't shit myself.

Nipples aren't showing. Are you a unic?
Hi /k/.
I'm in New York and want to build a non-cuck AR. This would be a violation of the NY SAFE act.
How fucked am I?
This is the list I would use to build aforementioned weapon.
This was my inspiration.
Would it be a better idea for me to buy one of these in Florida rather than make one myself?
>>32007387
What is that buttstock?
I need this in my life.
I know swords are for fags and that axes and war maces are far better, but if you were a well trained nobleman, /k/ wich sword would you use and why?
If I am in a situation where a gun cannot be used, another ranged weapon such as a longbow or crossbow would still be preferred. Fuck being honorable and noble. Being alive, and the other person being dead, is more important.
>>32004866
Pike, Dirk, and light crossbow. Easy to train on, can kill a swordsman 8/10.
