I'm arguing with an idiotic mega-liberal, and they claim that citizens that open carry firearms are likely to go on shooting sprees.
Anybody got any facts or sources that prove that wrong? I Google it, but I just find sources from both extremes of the spectrum.
Thanks.
How many spree shooters had carry permits or were carry advocates? there's your answer.
>>31108572
I'm being challenged to provide sources, whereas they won't attempt to prove a thing.
>>31108581
Who made the claim? That's who has the burden of proof.
New hunter here looking for some info. I plan on doing some deer hunting in early November but I'm not really sure what gear/supplies I'll need. Obviously I have a rifle/ammo and a hunting licence/deer tag but what else will I need?

What if you loaded a slug into a 20ga shell and fired the slug slug out of your slug gun
>>31107541
youd slug the slug into the slug slug slug
>>31107541
Slugs have a brain eating ameoba in their. Biostuffs.
Eating them or snails raw fuck a person's brain up.
>>31107597
so a slug slug to the gut would be fatal no matter what as long as it gets in their system
How would the Royal Navy of WW2 stack up against the IJN in 1942 if there was no war in Europe? That means the RN suddenly have three more carriers.
>RN
3 x Courageous class (~40 aircraft)
1 x Ark Royal (72 aircraft)
4 x Illustrious (~50 aircraft)
1 x HMS Eagle (~25 aircraft)
Japs
>Akagi & Kaga (~70)
>2 x Soryu (~60)
>2 x Shokaku (~70)
>Zuiho & Ryujo (~50)
Jap aircrafts have better kinematic qualities, but they can't operate at night like the Swordfish.
I think I would give this one to the Bongs.
Ijn is never ever striking into the Atlantic, UK can just wait and develop their carrier fleet and then come and btfo them

Did you want to say "no USN"?
Go down faster than Repulse and Prince of Wales. Official WWII Navies rating:
1. USN.
2. IJN.
3. Power gap.
4. Power gap.
5. Power gap
6. RN.

not the OP but really? Maybe it's been the heavy anti-weab sentiments, but I always thought otuside of suicide attacks and suckerpunching countries who didn't think they were at war with them, the Imperial Japanese anything was pretty fucking incompetent from start to finish of WWII.
We've all made dumb purchases. And guns are certainly one of the worst things to make a bad purchase on, as they lose up to 1/3 of their value when you walk out of store with one. So in the gun community, we see tons of post-purchase rationalization among the lower-IQ people.
What are some phrases that tip you off to this phenomenon? One I always see is "Not everything has to be an AR" when they post their dog-shit mini-14. Another good one is "I just wanted a rifle with (((character)))" after they post a gucci AK they spent 1.2k on instead of a modern rifle for less.
Soo what's your point
>>31107237
I see this on /k/ all the time so anyone who doesn't know what I'm talking about, go to the AR general and ask them why they got their rifle instead of an ak, and they will all list mechanical, real reasons. Ask the AK general why they didn't get an AR and they will literally all say "Not every rifle has to be an AR, bud" or variants of "more like GAY-R lmao"
>>31107266
People get so caught up in purchases they become fucking idiots
>>31107237
And guns are certainly one of the worst things to make a bad purchase on, as they lose up to 1/3 of their value when you walk out of store with one.
I think you're talking about cars.
Guns go for 95% value in the classifieds, if you haven't fucking noticed.

Hello, I said I would be back, allbeit- a little bit later than I had hoped. So my neighbor handed the guns over now and I got a few photos with the old sticky note to prove it is me, and these are some interesting guns. What I was tasked to do is clean them into operating condition and find information relating to them and I felt you guys would be interested in seeing it. I also got a book that you may find interesting too about post WWII uniforms and weapons
Here's the photo with old timestamp to provide proof, and a limiting shot on the goods.
First is the 1861 Colt revolver, it came with this little strap with information of the revolver. The most pressing issue is the fact I can't turn the cylinder
Will these gloves work for handling them?
Is carrying a small fixed-blade boot knife or dagger as a backup to your CC handgun a terrible idea?
I've heard numerous criticisms about them ranging from:
>mallninja
>thug weapon
>highly likely to injure yourself in a fight using one
>jury more likely to think you were "looking for trouble" if you were found to be carrying one after a self defense encounter
>even more so if you were forced to use it during said encounter
>firearms reliable enough not to necessitate it
Do these arguments have merit?
>>31107039
>jury more likely to think you were "looking for trouble" if you were found to be carrying one after a self defense encounter
this is the biggest problem, imho but personally I definitely wouldn't because of a) first greentext and b)
>firearms reliable enough not to necessitate it
so there is in all no reason to do it other than be an edgy fag.
>>31107039
Dont carry a "boot knife" get a decent neck knife and carry it in your pocket or on the belt or maybe something like a pushdagger or kabar tdi
Or get a knife with a wave opener and make sure you can reliably draw it
>>31107062
Not Op, but I disagree with the looking for a reason idea.
If that were the case, the statement would be made the same for firearm CC.
I guess as long as you have a normal pocket knife to use for utility and are not constantly looking for reasons to use your boot knife then a person might not be seen as edgy.
I haven't really slept for forty years. I lie down, but I don't sleep. I'm always watching the door, the window, then back to the door. I get up at least five times to walk my perimeter, sometimes it's ten or fifteen times. There's always something within reach, maybe a baseball bat or a knife, at every door. I used to sleep with a gun under my pillow, another under my mattress, and another in the drawer next to the bed. They made me get rid of them when I came into the program in the clinic. They're over at my mother's, so I know I can get them any time, but I don't. Sometimes I think about them - I want to have a gun in my hands so bad at night it makes my arms ache.
So it's like that until the sun begins to come up, then I can sleep for an hour or two.
It wasn't any different when I was working for the factory before I lost it and they put me in the psych hospital. I remember the company doctor putting valiums in my mouth, and they strapped me to a stretcher. I was screaming, I thought the gooks had overrun us and were pouring through the place. Everyone I looked at looked like a gook.
I worked a lot of overtime and also went to school and had a second job. I didn't sleep any more then than now. Maybe two hours a night. But I sure made a lot of money. Workaholic. That's me - no, that WAS me. I was real lucky they kept me so long. They understood that sometimes I just had to leave work. And they never laughed at me when I hit the floor if there was a loud bang or something. I know guys in the treatment program who work other places who had firecrackers lit off just to see them dive over a conveyor belt or something like that. Or their supervisors pushing them, mind-fucking them, pushing them till they lost it, so they could get rid of them. That never happened to me. Once a lamp in the ceiling exploded with a loud bang and I dove into a tank of lubricant for the cutting machines. It was awful. But nobody laughed at me.
>>31106916
They were real good to me, and they respected what I could do. They made me head of the Emergency Response Team, like for explosions and injuries.
Once a guy was burned real bad when some hydraulic fluid caught fire. I was the only one who didn't freeze. I got in there with the fire blanket, I still got the scars on my leg where I got hit too with the burning hydraulics. I got through Vietnam without a scratch and get a Purple Heart working for the factory. The smell of burning flesh fucked me up real bad afterward, though. I didn't notice it at the time the guy caught fire, but for the next few weeks I kept having flashbacks of the time the fast-mover laid a canister of napalm on my company. I couldn't get the smell out of my nose, out of my mouth.
I don't deserve my wife. What kind of life is it for her married to me? She'd say, "let's take the kids out for dinner." and I'd say, "sure, let's go." So we get to the restaurant and we walk in the door and I say "whoa!" when I look around and see all those people. So the hostess shows us a table right in the middle, and I say, "how about there in the corner?" and she says,"there's people there," and I say, "We'll wait." Meantime my wife is looking at me and there's sweat running down my face. I can't sit with my back uncovered. If I know you're back there covering me, it's okay, but a bunch of strangers, and some of them gooks - no way. I sit in the corner where I can see everyone who comes in and everyone who leaves. So after we wait thirty minutes for the table in the corner we start walking through the restaurant and my heart's pound, pounding and the sweat's rolling off me and I say, "I gotta go." So they sit down and eat and I stand up in the parking garage, the second floor overlooking the entrance to the restaurant where I have a real good line on everything going on.
Or another thing, y'know my wife's real social, and of course I'm not.
>>31106966
She understands now because of the couples therapy we did back in the day with her and me together. So we don't fight anymore about a lot of those things, and she even helps me now with the embarrassment. Like at my in-laws' she'll even make up something she forgot in the car when she sees that there's getting to be too many people in the room, so I can get out of there. But one thing she still don't understand is the mail. She gets so mad at me because I'll drive into town to buy cigarettes but I don't pick the mail up - it's right next to the 7-11. What she doesn't understand is that every time I think it's Andrew's kid sister writing me to find out how he died. She wrote him every day - and I mean EVERY DAY. Sometimes we wouldn't get our mail for six weeks, and when we'd get it there'd be more letters for him than for the rest of the platoon put together. It's better she don't know. If it was my big brother I wouldn't want to know the truth about the way he died.
Of course in another way I'm real good to her, compared to what I was like to other women before. I was one mean motherfucker. She didn't want to know me. You didn't want to know me. You don't want to know the number of people I fucked up, or how I fucked them up.
I don't have very long to live. No, I'm not suicidal, it's just that sometimes I don't give a fuck. I don't care if I live or die. I've been waiting to die ever since I got back from Vietnam. When I get that way, my wife, my kids - and I really love them - it's "GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME!" Once when my daughter was younger and I was that way, she came up behind me and before I knew it I had her by the throat up against the wall. I can still see her eyes. I put her down and just walked out of the house without saying anything to anybody and didn't come back for a week. I felt lower than dogshit. I hate it that my kids behave so *careful* around me. I made them that way, and I hate it.
Whats the gun that looks like jango fett's blaster?
Probably a Luger.
It's literally a scratch-built prop blaster. Most of the prequel trilogy blasters aren't based on anything.

The DC-15E is made out of MG-42 and Sterling SMG parts.

/k/ did you know IT WAS A WESTERN MYTH during WWII that NAPOLEON believed 2mm and 5.56mm were superior rounds because they will make soldiers shoot accurately?

Change your spending habits. You could have picked up a used beater from a pawn shop for about $100. Then you could have put the other $500 towards your massive debt.
