I don't get why IraqWarVeteran8888 has such a hardon for ruger 10/22s and thinks they're good for home defence and SHTF, anyone understand his reasoning? Is .22lr actually good for non sporting applications?

not the end all be all but it definitely has a lot of applications.

What can it do in terms of damage? Wouldn't it take too long to kill to be good?

Id love to go back in time a hundred years and tell Winston Churchill that in a century, England will have a smaller navy than India.

Here's a stackup.
The UK is the biggest inside the Mediterranean, Turkey is the biggest in The Black Sea, Russia is the biggest in the Caspian, but has in theory the ability to assemble the biggest navy in the Mediterranean aside from the U.S. Iran is the biggest independent navy in the Persian Gulf.

Because Bill Ruger literally shit the mini 14 recievers from his ass. Now that he's "dead" its very expensive to keep his body alive for mini 14 production.
The costs are passed on to consumers.

Hey /k/.
Bought my first gun last week and my second gun today. Ended up picking up a cz 75 sp-01. Went out back to shoot it and had four jams in 36 rounds. The previous shot would fire and the casing would eject, but the next bullet would get lodged with the tip in the barrel and the casing still in the magazine and the slide wouldn't close all the way.
This was the ammo I was using: http://www.targetsportsusa.com/aguila-9mm-ammo-115-gr-fmj-097704-p-3657.aspx
Switched to this: http://www.targetsportsusa.com/speer-lawman-9mm-ammo-115-grain-tmj-53650-p-662.aspx
And had absolutely no problems. Later loaded up a magazine with the Aguila and had a jam. Switched back to Lawman, no problems.
It's the ammo that's causing the problem, I'm guessing? I don't think I was limp-wristing (but I could be wrong).
Going to head to walmart and buy some Federal tomorrow.

With some break in (if it is a new handgun) it could very well tolerate worse ammo. Just use it, clean it, and lubricate it and it might start to feed shitty ammo.

It's brand new so maybe that's it.
Thanks

>>30650856
Break in could take awhile, so don't be disappointed after a few boxes of ammo. Honestly, it sounds like your handgun could do with a feed ramp polishing, but I am hesitant to suggest that (unless you bring it to a professional) for a novice gunsmith. Easy way to ruin a gun.

Is anyone else waiting for an order to be fulfilled?
I've had an order with my LGS for a gen 2 G19 sub2000 in limbo since late February. Also, I'm waiting for a RDB to go for MSRP on gunbroker, but I don't think that will ever happen now...

I was in Iraq in 2010 during the Last OIF and operation New Dawn, my platoons job was QRF and EOD escort. It wasn't very bad, worst that happened was a set up where we rolled out to investigate when a supposed IED went off and the insurgents detonated another when we got there. My LT got hit in the femoral artery and I controlled the bleeding as we got out of the area.
We also provided security when an insurgent shot down a Kiowa helicopter, that was kinda funny because the Iraqi army was hellbent on catching him alive so they where chasing him around the desert throwing flash-bangs from an up-armored Humvee, that shit went on for hours until he ran out of ammo.
I've gotten mortared too, it wasn't frightening but closest one hit like 150 meters away.

It's been almost 2 weeks since I dropped my Glock 19 off at my local smith to get night sights installed. They still aren't done with it. If it hits 3 weeks should I just take my business elsewhere?

Hey, /k/ I'm writing a little bit of fiction regarding future space colonies and corporate proxy wars and shit, but there are some things I'm unable to find reliable information on.
Let's just assume that a newly colonized world wouldn't have much in the way of an industrial base, and the best locally produced weapons would probably be black powder muskets just because they don't have the industry to produce useful amounts of standard cartridges. Now, let's say the colonists are having a bit of a dispute with an offworld mining corp that's staked out a particularly resource rich area on their planet. The colonists own the charter to the world, but the corporation claims to have bought resourcing rights to the planet. The colonists would just love to kick the claim jumpers out, but they have few modern weapons and a lot of muskets vs mercenaries armed with military surplus and class 3 body armor.
Long story short, I was wondering a few things:
Can you use a suppressor on a black powder or nitrocellulose musket?
How would a 50 cal musket do against modern body armor? And is it possible to jury rig up some kind of armor piercing ammo for a musket or is it just too low velocity?
How would you deal with a hind-equivalent gunship with wild-west era tech?
