I put that Rifle Accuracy Facts book up on Archive.org if anyone is interested in it. I am not the original anon who scanned it and put it up. Anyways, I figured this would be of interest to gunsmiths and competitive shooters and I hate the fact that book is nearly unavailable in any format.
I have not even read it yet because I've been so busy dealing with homework. Anyways, enjoy this book.
Also, how do I change the collection the book is located in?

Well credit to him, I'm just uploading it to make it easier to find.
I grabbed it when you first uploaded it.
Thank you again for your efforts. I've only started perusing it but it's been interesting so far.

Hey /k/, I saw a Yugoslavian Mauser that looked really nice on Armslist and he wants 350 dollars for it. Since I paid around 200 for my M24 Mauser, I dont mind the 350 dollar price tag hes asking for. HOWEVER, what is the usual average for these old tack drivers?
>>30573859
going rate for 24/47 and m48s is $300
rusty ones are 180

I bought mine for $350
I think that people grossly underestimate the price of guns here

Who would win?
The entire British naval fleet from the 1700s
Or the boat in pic related with experienced crew and 2 Browning M2s??
>>30572848
How much ammo are we talking for those M2s
>>30572848
More info required.
Wheather conditions? Range?
>>30572858
what he said how much ammo in the M2's
>>30572848
Is this a joke? Drop some chain-shot in the cannon and one broadside shreds that carbon-fiber fagamaran
/k/ what is it like to get shot? what is the feeling comparable to? every time i see someone getting shot, they don't move as much. is it because it hurts to move or is it that they just can't move?
>>30572019
If you get shot in the chest would imagine your lungs would be temporarily or fully collapsed, so now your body needs extra oxygen but gets very little.
Bags of sand
>>30572019
It feels like extreme heat at the place of impact for a few moments, and as you start to lose blood it feels like creeping cold that starts spreading.
ITT: Reloading
What are some good websites for purchasing components?
I'm new to reloading, just got my first press a few months ago.
Any recommendations?
Favorite loads?

Try
Grafs and Sons, they charge a flat $7.95 to process your order. Also Try Brunos shooters supply. Many places out there to buy bullets from. With the elections coming up make sure you have enough on hand. The may get scarce if SHTF
>>30570518
Thanks, my thoughts exactly, /k/omrade
why has electrical ignition not taken off comercially?
out of the modern inventions in design, (caseless, helical/p90 mags, post-burst recoil, etc)
it seems the simplest to introduce
two goddamn a4 batteries, ou could even house them in a conventional bolt for the benefit of interchangability
imagine a rifle that had two bolts, one with a spring and another with a battery
you could fire electrically ignited rounds of the same dimensions or regular rounds; bypassing the commercial issue of proprietry cartriges
perhaps you could even fire standard rounds electrically
benefits:
no trigger pull, at all; push button firing
this means you wouldn't even need a trigger, the button could be next to the magazine or further up so you could use your off-hand
just put it wherever you want
increased accuracy because your hand isn't moving so much when you fire and isn't under tension
no "hang" between trigger pull and firing, again this simply improves accuracy and reduces the time you have to be "on target" when firing
general weight reduction, no need for springs
change what would be the trigger pull without tools
space saved in handguns, no need for an external/internal hammer, nothing to snag or fuck up
WHY IS IT NOT A THING?
a lot of autocannons are already electrically-fired.
pic is the voere vec-91
it uses caseless ammo AND electrical ignition
most of the benefits are lost with a bolt action, where ejection and ROF arn't issues
but imagine a P90 with caseless ammo, and electrical ignition
no shells to eject, no ejection system
>>30569960
indeed, and I think that is largely due to interchangeability not being nearly so much of factor
if you only have one weapon chambered in a caliber, it doesn't really matter if it's conventional or not from a logistic point of view
benefits in weight reduction are exponencial as the size of the round increases, which Ithink is a big factor driving the trend
not to mention their direct compatibility with computer systems, just plug a wire into them and fire them from behind cover
I wouldn't be at all surprised if electrical ignition became standard in all artillery, aircraft and mounted weapons

Old thread >>30580768
Wow I'm one of the first posters in a new thread.
Talked to someone I know whose husband build ARs occasionally and he might be able to get wholesale prices on some parts. That would be sweeeeeet. Crossing my fingers.
>>30586488
First build, excited but waiting on my trigger.
What's the most versatile caliber I can have a second upper for? I'm considering .300 Blackout, 6.5 Grendel, and 6.8 Special for an alternative deer rifle.
I just found out PA has a cheaper 1-8x edition
The question is if it would be worth it over the 1-6x

>“T-34s are exactly the right tanks for us,” I replied. “They are crude, simple, and reliable. They always start and they always run. If they do break, any machine shop can fix ’em. We don’t want tanks to fight other tanks. That’s what anti-tank weapons are for. The best way to stop an M-1 is with a mine that blows a tread off. We want tanks for real armored warfare, which means to get deep in the enemy’s rear and overrun his soft stuff, his artillery and logistics trains and headquarters, so his whole force panics and comes apart.”

What do you white folk do with your snot? You wrap it up in a little white surrender flag and put it in your pocket. So you don’t have no courage.”

Mounting the stage, they began chanting the Dies Irae. At that signal, the soldiers set to their work.

>The first reform was to abolish both the Confederate national flag and the battle flag as the nation’s emblems. In their place, they raised over the Congress’s temporary quarters, the Atlanta Convention Center, a new flag that showed a rainbow on a U.N.-blue background. Beneath the rainbow was a black-and-white dove, behind and beneath which floated a sprinkling of silver stars, one for each Confederate state. The banner was immediately nicknamed “the Pooping Pigeon.”

Let's talk armor.
How bad is the spalling on ar500 or other steel plates?
I know they got that fancy coating that is supposed to catch all the fragments, but I am looking for some 6x6 side plates and the Mayflower carrier likes thinner side plates (unless I spend more money on retention straps). But unlike my main front and back ceramic plates, the thought of possible fragments bouncing into my armpit and the treasure trove of vessels and shit up in the pits, should I just get some fat ceramic side plates?
https://www.survival-bug-out.com/pages/why-ar-500-body-armor-isn-t-a-good-deal
tl;dr Don't buy AR-500, it a shit
>>30573563
>How bad is the spalling on ar500 or other steel plates?
Spalling as in back deformation or spalling as in bullet splatter?
Back deformation is irrelevant and so is bullet splatter

Why is the FN FAL so ridiculously expensive? Like, seriously, what makes this rifle worth $1,500+ minimum?
cost of manufacture, its a dated design man.
>>30570775
The fact that a lot of people were willing to pay that much for it
companies will always sell for what they know people will dish out.
>why is the best battle rifle made so expensive?!
So if there was one shooter and he used a SKS, who is this and what are they using(i think we agreed on a semi auto shotgun).
>>30569601
>i think we agreed on a semi auto shotgun
I'm pretty sure a military trained dude who wants to shoot cops dead at ranges between 0 and 100 meters is NOT going to choose a semi automatic shotgun for it
