AR fag here..So I haven't owned a pistol in a while, i had a browning 22 as a kid, but that's it. I am looking for something for home defense..
I shot a glock 17 and Sig P226 at the range yesterday, I am really liking the Sig, but the glock seems so simple. Money is really not an issue, I have $1400 to spend.
So tell me /K/, what do you keep on your night stand and why?

P229 enhanced with Viridian laser/light.
Lazer/light cuz tacticool and lights off situations. I carry a small blowback .380 cause its light and small. But the Sig with 15+1 rounds and a lazerlight is heavy and a bit annoying to carry so its a glovebox/nightsand.
No safety cuz its one more thing to train on, SDA so it technically does have a safety feature. Night sites with light and lazer for every advantage I can get.

>why
because I was a retard at 18 and bought a taurus without looking into the company as a whole.
I have learned since then.

I keep two 9mm and one .380. a 92FS, a P229 Enhanced, and a P230. they all have S/DA triggers and feel similar. I go to the range and shoot lots and lots of 9mm and would say I'm pretty decent. This is at 10 yards from the holster hammer pairs. Shooting both eyes open as well. I see old guys next to me in the range shotgunning a fucking target. But thell shoot 50 rounds of .22 in what looked like a 1911. Then he pulls out a Glock in 9mm. Then an HK in .45. I'm like wtf you own all these funs with such different characteristics and you shoot all of them like shit. His target looked like it was hit with a bird shot. If you enjoy shooting and collecting as a hobby then hey enjoy, but I guess I take to more realist/classic thinking. I have few and similar handguns, all with holsters, lost of mags, light/lasers ect. This guy has so many pistols all in a foam box. No extra mags no holsters and poor proficiency on all of them.
Whats /k/'s opinion on owning a fuck load of funs all with very different characteristics and triggers, and at the same time being, not proficient, with any of them. Isn't this foolish? Fun collections are cool but damn you need to dime out on ammo and apply the fucking fundamentals.

You're fucking autistic and retarded. Mind your own fucking business at the range and let Elmer Fudd shoot guns you'll never have however bad he wants to. Nobody cares you're a halfway decent shot (your groups are shit btw) and nobody wants to give you the satisfaction of a reply.

Hello /k/, I'm currently in school to become an LEO and soon to be working in a prison part time.
I've got a little money saved up, and would like to buy a handgun to start practicing. All I own right now are rifles since I'm under 21 and I'm a shit shot with them anyway.
What would be a good handgun to get started practicing on? Would it be an awful idea to get a semi auto .22 like a ruger or something? I don't really have the money to spend on 9mm to practice with a lot.
If I get good aim with a .22 is it going to carry over to a service handgun I'm given?
Or should I eat the cost and start out with 9mm?

It is always a good idea to practice with the weapon you will be carrying simply because that is the one you would be using. I mean it does not hurt to practice with something else for overall marksmanship practice, but for what you are asking I would say go with the 9mm.
>>
>>30498281
What am I looking at cost wise for bulk 9mm to plink with? Just like cheapest shit I can get?
Also what's a good cheap 9mm to get (not a highpoint. My grandpa has one and it's fuckugly I just can't do it)
I'm not sure if there is a standard service gun for our local department, since they guy that did my home interview had a USP.
Is glock my best bet? I'm not a fan of them but I understand it's probably the most likely.

Pls

I have been hearing loud AA flaks, small arms fire and a few explosions since early this morning.
I'm extremely afraid and panicked.
I'm in Austin.
Is this happening anywhere else?

What can be credited for the greatest amount of death throughout history?
And if I shift the conversation to warfare, which weapon in specific do you believe holds the highest accumulative kill rate?
Final question, from this moment, to the foreseeable and possibly distant future, how will the answers for either of those questions change and form as time continues?

So there has been more victims of immolation than anything that's passed between all realms and cultures as of yet?
What's your reasoning?

Fire was killing things before people even came around, and people have used fire to great effect. The firebombing campaign on Japan in WW2 did more damage than both nukes, the nukes were just more sudden.

So with the Bradley they filled the fuel tanks with water so they wouldn't blow up when shot during testing.
What did they stick in the F-15E's to keep them from getting the F35?

Most .38 specials unless specifically mentioned are on the light side becasue of the need to not kb older guns, what are you going to be shooting?

Cheap stuff is always light, and really any .38 not listed as +P. Wadcutter/semi-wadcutter will leave nice holes on paper to watch your hits.

Bear spray.
Less likely to be stolen by your subhuman coworkers.
>>
>>30496911
Been there, done that.
If the place is corporate you need to check with their rules, either they will have security or a dedicated anti bear crew. Some places will not allow firearms on their property as retarded as it is.
For less formal ops:
Always have bear spray on you just in case, sometimes you can just deter the bear, not having to kill it.
Then go down the list:
12ga shotgun with Black magic slugs - the only choice for tundra with risk of Polar bears
45-70 Guide gun (either pre freedom or very recent)
Rossi R92 in 454 Casull (significantly lighter than the guide gun or shotgun but still packs a real punch)
Large caliber revolver, minimum 454 Casull
10mm semi auto pistol like G20, 29, 40 or some 1911.
Anything less than that you just need one round for - killing yourself to save the pain of being eaten alive.

Alright k, I'm pretty drink so forgive me if I'm an idiot and there's already a thread about shit, but what's IDF ye took a vial of fooking tritium and made a combined collimator optic with it¿ it seems to be a good way to ensure the optic has enough ml IU get ta ensure proper operations. Pic semirelated became long island iced tea are fooking dangerous. I'm at least twice as drunk as I look, and autocorrect is the only thing making this post intelligible. Edit, the pictures are inline what I mean just picture one of those "reflex sight from like wwii or two and you'll get e what I mean.

What do you guys carry in all your gear? What have you ex-mil guys carried? If you had to make a packing list for combat, what would you include?
Personally, I think a portable hard drive and digital camera are underrated. Besides holding a porn stache and taking pics of dead enemies, they can be good for recon/intel gathering.

The one I got has ports for a standard USB, Android Phones, and a smaller USB found on many digital cameras and smaller electronics.
Allows carrying around entertainmemt or any digital info I need around.
