I found interest in throwing knifes. Someone doing that here as free time activity or in a sport group? Some advices on them?

>Some advices on them?
buy a gun
>>30573882
No guns for the german.
>>30573840
1. make sure they are properly balanced for your throwing grip.
2. hammer grip is best grip
3. the tips will get fucked up, accept this, love this, it is fact, it is truth, it is life.
4. learn your distance, your distance is the distance it takes to do a complete rotation/.
5. practice practice practice.
6. throwing knifes are not valid for self defense, don't even try that shit.
7. move the fuck out of Germany to a country where you can have guns.
/vp/ here. What's the best weapon to defend against Team Rocket /k/?

Help, me /k/. You deal with these things all the time.
>>30573777
Really though, I'm looking at picking up a CC licence soon, and I figured with all the recent habbenings going on a thread with general CC tips, advice, suggestions, and recommendations might be a decent idea.
Haha
How well does the M1 Garand hold up today? I don't necessarily mean in a strictly military context, but as a rifle in the hands of a citizen.
A 'one gun', if you will, and this question is full spectrum. Durability, accuracy, simplicity, gas system, etc.
Is it fundamentally outdated? Are there rifles which are hands down superior in most if not all respects?
>>30573748
M1 Carbine is so much better for the money
>>30573774
Well sure, but the Garand can easily take out large game.. So it better fulfills the requirement of 'one rifle'.
They don't eat modern .30-06 very well. Something about the higher-pressured ammo beating up the op-rod.
You'd have to buy an adjustable gas plug to feed it anything besides M2 ball. The lack of versatility isn't something you'd want out of a "one gun".

what's better to operate in?

I vote comfy
Durable. Comfy is a bonus.
tight and comfy
Let's take a minute to stop beating the dead horse that is BLM and discuss a more serious matter.
How do we weaponize it?
>>30572772
Instead of zika that makes retarded brainless babys . Make it inject a deadly neurotoxin that kills in 5 minutes with no cure.
>>30572772
Release them into Lindsay Lohan's house, let them feed, release them into the world.
>>30572812
Five minutes is too soon.
You want something like HIV that takes years to show symptoms but is incurable and unresponsive to vaccines.
How much money would it take to find and acquire one? 6000 usd? I've heard rumors that only around 100 or so units made it into trained citizen hands.Importing them know is nearly impossible Prefer one with the ZEISS SCOPE

>>30572753
That's a clone, stock and grip may be real, or may be repros too. Real PSGs have free float barrel, no front sight assembly, and I've never seen a flash hider on a PSG either. A quality builder may be able to produce one for you, but it won't be HK original.

Since I'm feeling helpful..

NO idea if these guys are legit, just what a google search brought up.
Here's essentially a civilian MSG90.

>>30572753
a real one? in the 5 figures easily.
So I took the old man to the LGS since I needed nugget food and he wants to browse for a new EDC. as I'm browsing the ammo section I hear pops ask the young kids at the counter wearing the signature "team glock" shirt what he would recomend in a double stack 9mm. Of course the kid immediately goes into the case and retrieves a 17. It's like a virus trying to infect everyone it comes into contact with.
>>30572325
Glock is the nickleback of pistols
>>30572325
Nice blog post. Unfortunately for you Glocks are still GOAT
Double stack 9mm and no more info? Id give the guy a 19.
If you want something different, tell your tastes or intended use or SOMETHING.
For those of you who were in the military: is it hard to kill another person?
>>30572186
I got hit with IDF on a near daily basis which desensitized me to explosions. My first few times getting shot at in hit & runs came as I was exhausted from walking with a pack, and I was too tired to really be shocked.
These things happened for a while before I actually got a chance to shoot back at somebody. When the chance came, I was really not getting the shock of combat all at once, and was firmly in the mindset of not giving a fuck. Shooting back and seeing dead insurgents was a nice feeling. It meant fewer attacks for a while and the feeling of a job well done.
>>30572186
>is it hard to kill another person?
the gun does most of the work
>>30572186
I'm not in military but I'd say no. They've done studies about soldiers in WW2 and they found that like 99% didn't shoot to kill people. It wasn't until after WW2 where they started conditioning soldiers to fire immediately when they see an enemy. So it's probably easier nowadays than before. Now they say 95% of soldiers shoot to kill.
Nigger tried to shoot someone, didn't work. I wonder what went wrong...
Should've used an HK
>>30572182
Nailed it
>>30572156
Can anyone ID those hollowpoints?
I happen to have this book in my collection of old Swiss militaria.
I can't find a PDF anywhere, so I wonder if /k/ would want me to scan the book and then share it here?
It's in German though and it's about how a soldier and their family should behave during an invasion of Switzerland. They also show how to conduct guerilla operations and what civilians should do when they occupy Switzerland.
It's quite interesting even though it's from 1959.
>>30572040
Yes, and see if you can't find someone to translate it too.
I could translate.
Soldierbook.
Next page pls.
>>30572092
I could translate it since German is my mother tongue.
Is there any reason to get a HK USP9 over a P2000 in 9mm?
And then, for the same P2000 over a CZ SP01 Phantom?
The P2k and CZ cost the same, and buying one of those would be saving $200 which could go towards the transfer fee as well as ammo, targets, and range time. But if there's a significant advantage that'll make waiting another 2 months to save up for the USP worth it, I'd wait.
I've heard that the P2k is supposedly the successor to the USP (and someone said USPc), so wouldn't that make it better, given products generally improve on their later iterations?
>Pic related, price comparison.
>Pls forgive them not being aligned perfectly.
>>30571812
Here's the difference, p2000 is a compact pistol meat for cc and the USP is a larger full sized pistol
U can find a used usp for 550 if you look hard enough
The usp has better trigger options, and in my opinion the best HK trigger out of the box, not to mention you can drop a match trigger in it
If I were in your spot, I would get a nice used USP and drop a match trigger in it and have an amazing handgub
>>30571850
Ah, I didn't actually know that about the P2k being more meant for cc, I was thinking the P2000sk being the cc.
Are used guns generally good though? I'd feel better knowing I'm the first owner, and there's less chances of it being a lemon.
>>30571812
First, in terms of overall quality and degree of refinement, HK >>>>>>>>> Sig > Glock > CZ.
The trigger pull feels better on the HK: the DA is smoother, SA is crisper, and the reset is shorter. There are options for "match" upgrades with both, but the USP match parts can be collected for $100-160, depending on where you buy them, while the Cajun Gunworks kits for CZ's are about as much as a new gun ($425 on their website).
The P2000 is a "compact." It's a good carry gun, but not comparable to the other two you are looking at due to shorter sight radius and reduced magazine capacity (13).
The USP is a "full size." They also make a USP Compact, which is the same size as the P2000 and also a great option.
The CZ SP-01 is a "full size," and, being made of all steel, is quite a bit heavier than the USP or the P2000.
Both USP full size and CZ 75 have a lot of similarities, like being able to carry them DA/SA or cocked-and-locked. With the CZ 75, you'll have to choose whether you prefer a decocker or a safety, unless you get an Omega model, but even then, you need to choose how to use it. The USP gives you both options at once if you get a v1.
The USP has an elaborate recoil reduction system and is lightweight. The CZ 75 reduces recoil by virtue of being made of heavy steel, and the gun weighs more. I have shot both and I believe the USP recoils a lot less.
I believe HK's paddle mag release is a better design if you can learn to use your index finger to release it, but it seems to be a love it/hate it kind of thing.
The USP retails for a lot more than the CZ 75, but you can get them used for a lot less. For a 9mm or .45, expect to pay $600-700, depending on how hard you look, and for a .40, you can get them for as little as $450, even though they all retail in the $900 range new.
Neither is has a lot of super high capacity options, but 18 round magazines for the CZ 75 SP-01 cost less than 18 round "jet funnel" mags for the USP.
Which is more /k/ approved? And do kommandos consider the garand a battle rifle?
>>30571492
>M1A is just the M14's
M1A is Springfield Inc's trademarked commercial line of rifles. Nothing to do with military rifle development.
>>30571492
I consider the Garand a battle rifle. It might not be able to compete with the 3 titans that emerged in the 1950's, but the Garand was also developed 20 years before them. It was the gold standard on the battlefield in WWII
>>30571492
The only correct answer is all of the above, and get an SVT40 as well.
I'm planning on buying an SKS. I know a bunch of different countries made the and I am also aware that quality and durability can change drastically between which country made them. What country made the best SKS and which country made the worse.
Expect prices to be a little higher.
>>30571386
$425 for yugos
$330 for chinese
everything else is catch as you can.
>>30571401
This infographic is pretty accurate. I'd personally look for either Yugos or Russians, though those will be pricier. I wouldn't waste time or money on an export chinese model.
The models and order of desireability you'll be most worried about are, in order:
>Russian
>Yugo M59
>Chinese/Yugo M59/66.
Any of those three will be solid performers though. I love my M59/66, was my first gun and one of my current favorites to shoot.
Will I be cool if I hold the gun sideways, Anon?
>>30571343
I see so many idiots doing that at my local range
I live in the middle of nowhere. Stupid wanna-be gang banger white 15 year olds do it and even elderly people. I can't figure out what it so appealing about it.
Frank Castle says no.
>>30571343
why does he do that?
What does /k/ think of scout scopes? I'm getting an M1A and this seems like a better option than mounting a scope over the action.
I never used one, but it just feels weird to me. That being said, is there any other way for SKS to get scoped?
>>30570852
For what purpose?
If you're going to use a magnified optic anyways, what is the advantage vs a normal set up?
>>30570852
Barrels kick and flex with every shot and change size based on heat, a sight mounted on a barrel would lose it's zero every time you shoot a few rounds.
