ARs have free floating firing pins, that happens on every AR ever made.

>>30636912
So nothing to be worried about?

Unless you refuse to give your AR some TLC and gunk built up inside the firing pin channel or you bought some real horrible ammo with baby soft primers, it's not a problem.
Also don't point your gun at a retarded direction anytime you have live ammo inside it.
And don't keep chambering that same round over and over again. Shoot it next time you're at a range.

If you're going to carry a 1911 size carry a 1911. Because you know, 45ACP can stop. If your worried about size and weight, get a 4 inch.

I own a five seven and its a pretty fun gun. Doesn't server any real purpose though, too big too carry, poor for self defense in tight quarters cause it over penetrates iirc (can someone confirm this?).

That said its a blast to shoot even just at paper. Its accurate, recoil is very mild if not barely existent. Makes things explode well. I've recently been using it as a varmint gun at my cabin and its superb at that as well.

The gun physically is solid. Despite being polymer it feels like it can hold up to hell and back and nothing feels cheap (although it feels weird putting plastics mags in). The mag release isn't very smooth IMO either (but I've always preferred paddle style). Haven't had a chance to disassemble mine but I hear they can kinda be a pain.

I own a 5.7 MK2 and I like it, shoots great and honestly only plebs who live paycheck to paycheck complain about the price.

I have a concealable plate carrier and battle belt with custom magazine pouches and blade-tech OWB holster attached to belt which works great and doesn't bunch up like a tacticool setup would.

I wouldn't necessarily conceal carry it as I have other weapons I would rather do that with, but if I needed to strap on something quickly and have the ability to put rounds down range without worrying about emptying out, I would stick to this handgun until I could get to my actual battle rifle and plate carrier geared towards armed threats.

I just did this to my 10/22 fcg last night. Polished several other contact points as well, like the trigger reset pin, hammer face and end, bolt top, bottom, and sides, receiver, etc.

Really REALLY slicked up the action, improved the trigger pull, and made it a great little rifle. It's not even hard. Never had tried it before.

I guess this thread is appropriate for my questions. I have a 10/22 and was wondering what would be a good red dot for it? Something in the $100 or so range.

The handguard and carry handle. It just bothers me so much, even though I know they do their job.

What's even worse, is when they put a optic ontop of the carry handle.


It works, and it's the only real option when you don't have rails, but just......fuck, man.

/k/ eschews competition.

Open is a money race that never ends. Competition in stock/production is where it's at.

>>30623641
Compete in production, have a buddy that shoots open, he's always dropping dough on his gun.

People who want a cheap poodle shooter will get an AR.
Those who want a traditionally stocked rifle in .223 is a much smaller group. They will pay more, as there really isn't competition. And there is no competition because there isn't that much demand

>>30630241
This

The mini14 is on my list because I want/need a semi auto 5.56 but don't particularly care for the ar platform with the exception of m16A1 clones that cost as much or more than the mini to build/buy

>>30630241
This.

There is little to no market for a 'civilian-style' semi-automatic rifle that you have to semi-extensively modify to make 'tactical'. In order to turn a profit, Ruger has to make the prices assblastingly high. I actually had a discussion with someone about how bad the prices were for these guns earlier today.

At least they're built like tanks and handle almost as good as the M1 Carbine (which is about the same size, a bit smaller, but feels similar).

I personally prefer jungle boots, but they beat up your feet after a long day constantly on them, atleast for me. RAT Boots are probably one of the most comfortable boots i've ever owned, but they're heavy as hell. Looking for any reccomendations similar to this.

My jungles cracked after only a year, with a lot of maintenance. I bought these brand new at a surplus store, 1989 dated.

And my RAT boots wear differently than eachother after about a year of on/off use. Feels like im walking on sunshine while also having cement blocks for feet.

Oh, and also this classic.

I've never been involved with hunting, but was expecting a little more... I dunno, reverence, in those moments, snuffing something's life out for food? Not like this giddy schoolgirl laughter. Maybe I'm just a faggot.
