Hey /k/ I'm planning on buying my first gun for home defense and I was wondering how would this do.
>>30596983
it's good because pistols don't overpenetrate
>>30596983
go to a gun store and buy one, mossberg 500 would be my recommendation. maverick 88 for cheaper
>>30596983
Crackheads usually don't go down in one shot, so you'll need something bigger
Hi guys! I heard that armor can be discussed so here is my project.
I just started making chainmail and i realized that my rings are a bit large they are 13 milimeters in diameter or 0.43 inches. The issue is that i already made a few lbs of rings that size.
Would the chaimail be effective against malee weapons in theory considering that it is butted mail+ large rings? I do not plan to use it but i still want it to be realistic.
>>30596980
Try stabbing it with something sharp and pointed.
>>30596980
I'm not trolling here, but go to /tg/, preferably one of the LARP threads. If Gropey is around he can give solid advice, and if not fa/tg/uys are still pretty damn knowledgeable. Might get lucky here though, won't hurt to try both places.
>>30597004
Oh gropey is still around?
W-why don't he want us man?
Assuming you were one, what would your preferred method of crowd control be, /k/?

Hey /k/,
For years i've been wanting to get a handgun.
I want my first to be a 9mm.
Can't decide which. For a while I was leaning towards a glock 19 since it is so highly recommended by so many folks. (Hickok45)
But all my friends have differing opinions.
My list ATM of guns I am deciding between but haven't held yet are;
1. Glock 19
2. Cz75 Full size or Compact (15rd limit in NJ)
3. Sig P320
Why would I choose Glock 19 over p320. For me so far I hear glock 19 has lower bore axis so it may have lower recoil? Also mags are cheaper and perfect size for my state.
I love the look of cz75 and glock but the p320 looks kinda ugly to me. However I like the idea of caliber switching.
Any suggestions I am pretty much open to anything as I still have a month or two before my handgun purchasers card even arrives.

If its going to be a carry gun, G19. If its a range pistol, CZ-75.
I prefer my Glock 19 to my Sig SP2022, The recoil doesn't feel quite as snappy. Either one is quite adequate though. Never shot the P320, I too think it's ugly.

Was there a way for the USSR to have easily "won" Afghanistan? Just cut the flow of arms and mercenaries into the country, right? Or was there more to it?
USSR could not win in Afghanistan because of the ideology. The Book said Afghani peasants were their best friends. But they were not and soviets minds exploded from the cognitive dissonance.
>>30594273
They could have brought one of their several million soldiers and occupied the entire country, controlled every aspect of peoples' lives while they trained a new aghan elite to take over what they were doing so they could pull out after a while.
>>30594332
Upholding (or at least performing damage control for) the afghan elite they had already installed was the whole reason they were there in the first place. Its not the sort of place you can install a ruler over, because Kabul only has influence over Kabul.
Been meaning to get myself a nice shotgun. Particularly a side by side or over under one. Something with tasteful engravings would be nice. I'm willing to spend 1,500-2,000. Any recommendations?
>>30593260
Miroku or Browning are nice and within your price range
>>30593260
Is there any advantage to horizontal rather than vertical double barrel shotguns?

When did you become a gun guy?
What got you into guns?
Or more specifically, what made you pro-gun?
I remember it clearly..... I was on the Internet in like 2007, and I saw a stupid internet comic strip. I wish I could find it today...
Basically, it showed a grenade, and it explained how grenades are dangerous and can kill people and how they should be banned etc.... And then the last panel makes the comparison to ARs.
The comic only works if you agree from the beginning that grenades should be illegal. I did... Then, someone commented on the comic, saying "jokes on you, I want to own grenades, fuckface". It really resonated with me.
And now I'm a gun nut
What's your story? Is it as lame as mine?
>>30590334
I was actually anti-gun lefty liberal, but I always wanted to be a muhreen I joined got hazed a lot and was a saw gunner.
Shit was dank aside from being a 5'9 scrawny mexican kid.
>>30590334
Started reading gun magazine's at twelve.
>>30590334
I was a scared little kid.
Nothing fixed shit for me.
Monsters under the bed/in the closet/faking everywhere were the name of my existence and I barely fucking slept.
Regardless, it only got worse as I got older until the age of eleven, when two things happened.
I saw a commercial for a survival horror game (don't remember which) and I watched it, confused.
I asked myself why those people weren't afraid of the things attacking them.
And then I realized that they killed a bunch of them with guns.
And so I thought "damn, guns must be really useful for defending yourself against scary things"
And so I started asking about getting a gun or something.
It didn't work but I had a nerf gun I kept in tow with me usually whenever I went around the house.
Later on that year a cousin and I were discussing guns and he asked me if I wanted to see how to disassemble an AR-15.
I said yeas and when I found out how simple they were I became completely enthralled with firearms and how they worked and how to use them.
So I asked to go shooting and about a year later I go my chance at a church shoot/meet thing.
I've gotten over my fears over the years but guns have stuck with me.
I may not have to have them but I'll be damned if a gun in your hand doesn't reassure one when there's a bump in the night.
How would one stop a charging knight?
I don't know how fast the average horse moves but even with a giant ass pike wouldn't the momentum of it put you on your ass?
>>30586311
Horses don't charge into solid masses of infantry at all. A cavalry charge only works once the formation has been broken up or are losely spaced, any solid formation will stop a cavalry charge, even if you don't have a pike.
In most of history cavalry was mainly used to cut down a routing army, in for example the 800-1100 most fights were done by infantry, and once a shield wall broke you'd send in the cavalry, to ride down the retreating enemy.
>>30586311
When the kind of cavalry charge you see in movies actually happened, like charging the enemy straight into the front without prior disruption of the formation it almost always ended terribly and wasn't intentional. Some examples:
Agincourt, They only charged the english because they thought they could ride down the archers, but mud slowed them down and they got fucked, also note that most knights on both sides fought on foot.
Waterloo, Scots grey guard got fucked, and didn't even mean to charge head on, but tried to cut down a column, the french cavalry charge was only made because they thought the english was routing.
Charge of the light brigade. This was just fucking stupid.
>>30586443
Lances, however, could kill and shatter the front of an infantry block without running into the problem that a horse won't (deliberately) run into a packed mass of men.
Once the front broke and men started running cavalry were devastating. They could easily kill huge numbers and keep the foes retreating, preventing them from regrouping.
The sheer power of cavalry charges was enough to make them pretty rare. European battlefields became defined by formations that were highly resistant to cavalry charge, thus cavalry shaped the battlefield even when they weren't decisive.
are there any 3d printable .22s besides the liberator?
Also is there a service that will print them for me and send them to my door (like shapeways)
>>30583582
>Also is there a service that will print them for me and send them to my door (like shapeways)
This question is so dumb it hurts. No, kid, if someone prints a pistol and isn't an ffl it's a felony. If anyone, FFL or otherwise, MAILS you a firearm of any kind and YOU aren't an FFL it's a felony.
If you're going to be a felon, for fucks sake get a decent gun out of it instead of plastic disposable meme shit.
>>30583582
The Liberator is chambered in .380acp a different barrel file would be required to make a .22lr one.
>>30583641
Half right. You can make a gun in your home and it's completely legal. Without an ffl.

Terrifying, I know
As long as the shotgun isn't in plain view you don't have anything to worry about.
>>30596195
1. Call your wife
2. Tell her to put a blanket over the gun and don't commit any traffic violations
3. Quit being a gigantic faggot

Fortunately, you don't look very threatening when your face is buried in your phone.
But it would help kiddy diddlers a lot if they just know where to go and sit and wait.
