What is the deal with Massachusetts and ARs?
Everywhere I read it was 'ARs are BANNED in MA none at all!'
I recently moved here, and went to my closest FLGS. Tons of ARs. I asked the owner about the ban and he just laughs and goes 'Yeah, well, you know its fine.'
Okay maybe its a hardcore 2nd Amendment gun store. I can respect that.
A few weeks later I check out my local outdoor gun club/shooting range. They give me a tour on a Saturday, tons of shooters from all around the area.
ARs. Left and right.
Again, I mention the ban and ask "Aren't ARs specifically banned in MA?"
Range guy kinda laughs and goes "Yeah.... not really."
What am I missing here?

How else do you get people to buy a certain gun? You scare them with ban. How many people bought Catcher in the Rye because it 'was' a banned book? If you scare people with the idea that it will be taken away later they will buy Now. Welcome to America my friend, enjoy capitalism

Alright let's get some /k/reatives I'm here.
I've had an idea for a stupid weapon system that's basically a T-shirt cannon rigged up to fire soup cans at lethal velocities.
What PSI would it need?
Is it being powered by air completely stupid?
Would propane or acetylene combustion be the only option?
What stupid shit have you thought up?

Well I guess with a little innovation this could comically fire regular chicken and noodle soup at your attacker.

You'd have a hell of a time getting the terminal ballistics worked out. To start with, you're going to have a hard time getting any accuracy with the lack of a barrel seal, so you'd need to use something like an old black powder miniball system with wadding to get you a good seal, but considering the diameter, you're basically talking about a napoleonic-era field cannon.
Then you have the shape of the can being un-aerodynamic for one, making it prone to tumbling. You could overcome this with some sort of rifling setup, but that's going to require a lot of custom machining and potentially custom cans, making the whole thing a lot less appealing.....maybe some sort APFSDS-style discarding sabot and stabilizing fins?

something that has me weirded out:
>be me, recent college grad working at an office in finance
>get randomly talking with coworkers about sports and stuff, guy brings up that he shoot clay and skeet, i do IDPA and talk about it.
>supervisor (my immediate boss) overhears and says she mostly did skeet but was thinking about trying IPSC or IDPA because it looked pretty fun, asks me if i wanted to talk about it over lunch
>say sure, day passes, we hit up the cafeteria and talk about shooting sports mostly and hockey. this is in MN btw, in case anyone is wondering
>says she's been thinking of getting a PTC for her pistol. takes a drink from her latte with cream when i ask what it is and says it's a nickel Beretta Cougar, in 9mm. she likes the overall size, but it fits the hand well and can take a pounding from heavy +P ammo (or "heavy loads" as she put it)
>at this point i think she's hitting on me. before i can figure it out, she asks what i shoot for pistols and i generally use a newer glock 35 for the standard division.
>we clean up the table and says she'd like to try it out, she's never fired a striker before, just revolvers and DA/SA. she'd love to puts hands on my glock and squeeze a few out (jesus christ, she's like 8 years older than i am).
>after work is done for the day, she asks if i had a PTC and i said no but was thinking about it. since i brought up the lack of external safeties and simple design, she said it sounded like a smaller one would be a solid carry choice like a 42 or something.
so long story short i think i have a range date with an older coworker next week and while i've taken a couple girls out to the range once or twice, i've never been talked into it before. should i just bring a variety like i usually do, or just stick with what we talked about? also realistically what are my chances with this woman? she's pretty hot for an older girl - definitely the "stacy's mom" vibe with a dose of sultry curves.

I know we've been over this 1000 times but every time someone convinces me not to buy a gas piston, someone else convinces me to buy one. I'm gonna buy a high end AR soon and was just gonna spring for a Daniel Defense but now the LWRC piston rifles are starting to look really nice to me. Both arguments have essentially boiled down to:
>Gas piston is more reliable
>No DI is more reliable
I'm just not convinced either way. Money is not an issue btw I work two jobs.

No one outside of 'spergs on /k/ cares. No one will ever come up and ask to see your gas system. If they do, they're a fucking weirdo and they want to collect your teeth and toe nails to make jewelry, so don't let them near you.
>>
Piston adds unwarranted complexity, points of failure, and weight, without a corresponding improvement to reliability. If you want a piston, buy a gun designed to use one, and not some AR retrofit. They are designed to use the stoner gas system and only that.
Odd question but on the off chance...
I just arrived in the Orlando area and I'm looking for a roommate. Any local /k/ommandos looking to make some money and/or want (non sexual) human companionship? Looking for regular roommates on Craigslist too but I figured trying here wouldn't hurt either cuz then I wouldn't have to worry about roommates complaining about the fact I own guns. This does of course include the risk that one of you might eat me or jizz in my brownies as this is 4chin but whatever. Please feel free to sage and abuse my useless thread.

You grasp the ricasso and use it like a short spear, or swing it it a "∞" shape, build momentum, and then walk into the opposing pike formation.

I'm seeing a horror movie with this girl but she is scared to go out tonight cause of the killed clowns. She then agreed. I offered to carry if she wants. But she didn't say yes or no. But after she agreed she said you'll protect me.
Does /k/ usually carry on dates? Does it weird the girl out? I'm in Texas btw

otherwise, she should only know about it when she is pulling down your pants - then might be a turn on for her

what is the reason for starting .22, and why does anyone act like this is difficult?
why do you guys recommend a wussy caliber (.22) in the sticky when 9mm can be handled by a complete neophyte?

I don't actually suggest .22LR as a first gun, but when I teach people I usually start them on one. It's a good way to ease them into shooting without intimidating them. I've seen plenty of macho tough guys run off with their tail between their legs after they shoot something like an AK or Mauser for the first time.
>>
most new shooters are pussies, so .22 is good for light recoil, little noise and such.
i dont think anyone other than noobs act like its difficult, maybe to make new shooters feel better
.22 is good for practicing fundamentals cheaply and as I said before with little recoil
>>
Because its cheaper to shoot.
Its good to start children on as well, but theres no problem starting with something bigger if you dont mind the cost.
Its just nice to be able to take a .22 and a shitload of ammo somewhere and dick around all day. If you are only going to ranges then maybe thats no big deal. I grew up hiking around the foothills with my dad, he carried a lever gun for mountain lion defense, i lugged around the .22, carrying several boxes of .22lr is less hassle than something bigger.
