/k/ Could a Maus destroy a m1a2 Abrams?
0/10
>>30578121
In theory? Its gun could probably penetrate the back of an Abrams.
In practice, you're better off just dismounting the gun from the vehicle and ambushing the Abrams with it. The maus itself is a literal dead weight. Or, even using the ammo as IEDs.

Thanks anon.
How viable is the Acme DP for home defense? I was eyeing one in my LGS and it looks pretty cool.
Not so good, it jams if someone sticks a finger in it. You need a tried and true anvil.
I honestly don't know whether to play along, or viciously insult the OP
>>30577845
>Not Acme brand TNT
It's like you want the bad guy to get back up and loony your shit up.
>be me today
>show 1911 fag friend my newly aquired S&W 686 prelock.
>open cylinder and hand it to him
>first thing he does is slam the cylinder shut with the flick of the wrist
>proceed to tell me how nice my gun us
>holding in my rage as my face turns red with rage, fists clenched.
>ask for gun back
>get gun
>put back in safe
>mfw he tells me I should close the cylinder like so to look hard as fuck
Could a once time incident of a person flicking the cylinder shut damage my gun if it happened only once?
Gun broke, not safe for firing anymore, please give to police for melting down. Only safe way to do it.
The only thing left to do is tie the barrel in a knot and give it to a liberal arts college.

A coworker of mine who is very gun savy did that with my 629 EXTREMELY hard after spinning it. Explained to him why it's bad for it and he apologized profusely. Now any time I hand a revolver over to anyone I give them a breef rundown on revolver etiquette before. Barry from Iraqveteran8888 has a great vid on it.
Let's see what's in the safe /k/ pic is part of the collection I have about 4 bolt actions aren't present
Self bump?
>>30576891
did you take that pic with a Polaroid from 1972 then scan it with a 15dpi scanner from 1987 then compress it with the 1991 jpeg standard before posting it here?
Eh hell why not
AR general doesn't seem to be any help with this question, which does /k/ prefer for two piece AR fore grips? A Midwest Industry keymod or a Daniel Defense Omega. Both seem to have their merits.
KAC RAS
>>30576816
FreeFloated handguards. There's a reason 90% of the AR's in /arg/ have a free float handguard m8
>>30576869
Are you referring to choosing a different hand guard or the Daniel Defense?
/K/ollateral a /k/ movie?
Good move and Tom Cruz is a great actor.

I just watched it yesterday and I get an urge to watch it every time I see a picture of a USP. My only complaint is that Vincent uses a clip holster with no belt for his full size .45.
Hey /k/, I'm looking to get my first 12 gauge, what is the consensus recommendation for a reliable home defense one that doesn't break the bank?
Mossberg 500
Don't get a pistol grip only shotgun, you want a stock.
>>30576419
whats your budget?
>>30576431
No worries, that was just the first pic I saw, I won't do that
>>30576437
Preferably less than $500
so /k/... was downtown in knoxville this weekend and realized i may be internally over-reacting with my situational awareness while in urban areas. Am i being paranoid or is waiting to be in a confrontation while innacity a normal reaction?
>>30576413
I mean, are you freaking out? Are you breaking a sweat? Is your heartrate going up over nothing?
Then maybe.
Still, it's better to be paranoid than dead or injured.
>>30576413
doesnt hurt to scan your surroundings and give people and objects ocular patdowns, youre doing one better then all the drones drfting around with their face glued to their phones or just being plain oblivious
>>30576429
nah just constantly administering everyone the ocular pat-down, and assesing ambush points, keeping my wife on my protected side, being aware of anyone behind me ( i carry a @ 4oclock). i feel like im overdoing it, but am i?
Scenario: Tomorrow you wake up and you're an 8 year old girl. You're in a wooded, hilly area and the only thing you have other than your clothes is a backpack. You open up the backpack to find a letter and a map. The letter reads:
>I know you must be fucking confused right now, but if you want to stay alive just listen to what I have to tell you. Right now there's a highly trained, well equipped 10 man team in the area and if they find you you're dead. I'm approximately 100 miles from where you are in the city marked on the map. You need to find me if you want to survive and get this shit fixed. Cops can't be trusted and people tend to call cops when they see an unaccompanied little girl walking all alone out there.
>I have a safehouse nearby also marked on your map. In it is food, supplies, and guns, take whatever is necessary. Fill up the backpack but not too much, your new body is much weaker than what you're used to. Wouldn't recommend more than one gun and don't take too much ammo, remember you've got a long ways to go. Don't take anything big enough to draw attention and make sure your smaller body can handle whatever you take. Good luck.
What do you do to make the 100 mile journey undetected to survive? The safehouse contains one of every current production gun available in the USA. Remember, your cute little hands probably can't handle a full size p226 or Glock 20.
>>30576345
What if the man who wrote the letter is a hentai antagonist waiting to rape you, and the 10 man team is a search party?
Do you get to be a cyborg like Henrietta?
>>30576380
You can weigh the dangers of each I suppose. On one hand, worst case scenario is dying, on the other hand, there's a good old fashioned dicking.
>>30576408
I suppose. Even the odds a little with a hit squad after you.
What are your thoughts on russian mi 28 and ka 52?
any other russian choppers welcome too
>>30576135
The nose cones make them look like cartoon mice.
>>30576135
The Mi-28 feels like any other attack heli, just a bit larger and with a much better gun.
The Ka-52 is really cool.
>>30576253
Doesn't the 52 have a limited range of motion on the gun pod? Something weird like 5 degrees in any direction.
>About to place huge order of almost 10k rounds of various ammo on sgammo that I place about three times a year
>Decide to wait a night and think of anything else I want to add
>Degenerate club gets rekt
>Panic buying ramps up and everything sells out that before I even get home from work that Monday
>Oh well, I'll just wait till it calms down in a month
>BLM protests start
>Mass panic buying in every lgs in city yesterday.
>Know that this is going to ramp up 10x worse when the election gets near and will reach critical mass if Shillery wins.
>mfw
At least you're not me where it's a constant, anxious loop of
>I should sell my ak74 and 5.45 stuff because I don't shoot it and I'm low on AR and 5.56 stuff
>no I should wait until full Hillary and sell it then, and be low on money/AR shit in the meantime
>>30575901
poorfag spotted. How can you be so poor you can't even miss $1000?
>>30575901
Don't sell your funs bro
I've never had an instance where I didn't regret selling a good fun
The money can't be that tight.
Hi /k/
Aus here. Currently in the united states on holiday and I would like to shoot some guns. What's the best way going about doing this?
I'm both US and Aus citizen, if that makes any difference.
If you're a U.S. Citizen you can buy guns, my man. If not, just go to a range that rents guns. Or find a willing /k/ommando that will let you shoot their guns in exchange for your boipucci.
>>30575798
>look for ranges online
>rent gun
>fire away

US is pretty big. Where exactly are you? Makes a difference mate.
I'm a flinch bitch. I can't stop flinching and it's driving me nuts. I dryfire practice for an hour each night, I hit the range every week and shoot 150 rounds, but I can never fix my flinch. When I dryfire everything is perfect, I can do penny drills all day, etc..., but as soon as there's a live round in the chamber, it takes me 20 seconds to pull the trigger, my hands start shaking, and I always either drop the muzzle or push the muzzle up because I'm a faggot bitch. I mean I'm the type of dude who jumps 3 feet when I see Tyrone on the street and he moves his arm 3 inches or when a homeless guy asks me for money.
I've tried mixing in spent casings, and every single fucking time I'm always pushing the muzzle up or down. Help me /k/, what can I do to stop being such a fag. Am I doomed to being a bitch flincher for the rest of my life?
>>30575759
take a month break and come back
>>30575759
One reason you might be flinching is realizing that you're pulling the firearm to the right. Don't rest it on the nook of your finger between each segment; rest it on the direct print of your triggerfinger.
Take a few breaths and think about happy shit, then pull the trigger, Piglet.
>>30575759
No traps allowed
Also you might be getting target panic
Shoot a gun with smaller rounds
Pull the trigger slowly as possible
Double earpro
Region wide protests planned for the Hampton Roads area. Stupid me, I'm with friends at a fucking comedy club.
So, any local /k/ommandos getting locked and loaded in case shit goes tits-up?
They won't have weapons and I live in a rural nobody town in East Texas. I literally have nothing to worry about. Leftists avoid this place like wildfire and the terrain is very hilly so good luck staying fat doing those marches over here.
Although I don't have any friends.
Also it's like 100 degrees.
And the air smells shitty.
But I remind myself I'm really better off here.
>>30575635
Up in fredricksburg area so if you need a safe house I've got a place for you.
OP here. Made it home, avoided the roads listed do I didn't see anything. Following the news. Doesnt look like anything should be close to me, but still have a rifle ready.
Anyone else in the area? Got your eyes on anything
Which determines the strenght of recoil in one pistol? For instance I know complex factor like its the caliber and size and weight of the gun, but lets take 9x19 for example how much can I reduce it's recqoil by replacing a stock component in the pistol,?
bunG
>>30575624
partly due to the individual characteristics of the caliber and the cartridge load
Aside from recoil/mainsprings,bullshit handloads and good form, nothing outside of weight or a gas system is going to help.
You can play with perceived recoil and lower muzzle flip or use special buffers, but it depends in your goal
