ok, so i ordered a fn15 on the first of the month and the money came out of my account on the 5th, i called on the 10th to see if it was in and they said no, this place is pretty good, i've ordered a couple of rifles before and they came within a week or so, this is the first ar type i've ordered, should i back off and let the order come in or should i ask about my order? the reason i'm asking is because of everything that is going on in orlando (after i had placed my order and they took the money and i called the first time) i don't want to make it look like i am desperate for it or anything because i've heard of gun shops turning people away because they were too anxious to get a firearm, what do you think? thanks for reading

tl;dr should i keep asking my local gun store about my ar order

Should have just bought a Colt, the price on them tanked and they are milspec.

>>30352646
I'd wait a few more days and check back.

If its still nothing, keep pestering them. Don't worry about looking like a sperg. If they can't handle customers concerns, they don't deserve your business.

Colt-fags are the worst.

Simple go in once a week, each time get some ammo, mags, gun stuff. Then while your checking out ask them how your order is going. After 3-4 weeks go to another store and see what's up.

Building my AR and next part is the upper. Needed or not? I've never used the one on my other AR other than showing what it can do.

I like the idea of saving weight and trying it out with out it.

Me and my friend recently got into an argument about whether or not the M14 ever had a 3 round burst. I'm fairly certain that it never did, but he seems to think that the M14s given in vietnam had burst fire. My question is which one of us is right.

To answer your question, Yes Originally they were manufactured select fire (full auto only), but were later converted to semi auto only because it could not be fired accurately in full auto and was a terrible waste of ammo

Bump.
Does anyone know a better place to get a good one?
Is $150 too much to spend on one?
Is the kommandostore a respectable site?
>>
>>30353637
mad max really jacked up the price on that vest.
why do you actually want it?
150 bucks will buy you better more modern gear youve got options. unless your dead set on it then pay what you gotta pay

>>30351952
They're literally the only place importing them as far as I've seen. Unless you have a friend actually in South America or Britain who can hook you up with one off the SA version of ebay, you're shit out of luck outside of the KS. The ones you see for like $50 or whatever on EBAY are all airshit knock offs.

I've ordered 2-3 times from them and it's always gone well. If you don't get one from them you probably never will. Not even shilling, they're just that rare in the US unless you stumble upon the blue moon listing on EBAY for a real one or happen to find one stuffed away in a surplus store.

Which does /k/ prefer and why?

Striker. I've done the DA/SA thing and didn't like the inconsistency of the first vs second trigger pull. Also, DA/SA to SAO conversions almost always have camming. If you're going to do hammer, just do a 1911; otherwise just do a striker fired (not an XD)
>>
>>30351764
Why you no SAO or DAO?
>>
>>30351764
DA/SA.
I'd rather simply practice with a single DA and then go to SA instead of having a shitty trigger 100% of the time.
I also simply tend to enjoy firearms that are DA/SA and not striker.
Lugers seems to avoid the problems that striker handguns have almost entirely though for some reason, and thus, I like the Luger system of striker firing.

Everyone tells me i could do well as a civilian police officer or something on those lines. But I feel getting paid to shoot funs, working out, and bantering with the lads is better than wageslaving

What do you think /k/ am I making a bad decision? What's it really like to be a grunt

So I plan on purchasing my first gun soon, but I can't decide whether I should go with a shotgun or a handgun. I'll mostly be using it shooting targets at the range, but I also want something that will serve me well in the event of a happening. What do you guys think?

By the way, the shotgun I'm looking at is a Mossberg 500 SP, and the handgun a ATIGFX45MIL (pic related).

I'd do a handgun personally. ATI might be identical to RIA's, but I'd still do a RIA 1911, and you may want to do the 'tactical' version where it has nicer sights (and a better dovetail cut for more replacement sight options) as well as a beavertail grip safety
>>
>>30351653
I was looking at RIA, but I'm trying to keep it at around $400, and the tactical RIA's seem to be closer to $500.
>>
>>30351601
Mossbergs are GOAT, but shotguns are expensive to shoot.

A handgun will be cheap to practice with, and serve you very well during a happening (concealable, handy, plentiful ammunition, lethal).

Don't know anything about ATIs tho.

Hey /k/, a while ago i ordered a fixed stock ak kit from ak-builders and soon i will order a 100% lower after thinking it over for simplicity. 2 questions are what do i need tool wise and help on the compliance parts. It's no longer available on their website, but the barrel is us made(and pressed and headspaced) and the furniture iirc is Korean made, there isn't a muzzle break on the barrel but idk if there's one in the bag, don't really want to open until I'm building? also i ordered us made rivets from them. so assuming i have #1 barrel, #2 brake, and #3 receiver (rivets dont count?) I'll be stuck with us mags for the other 3 parts? maybe i should email them so i know what parts i got? and I have an anvil and hammers is that good enough to rivet or did i bite off more than i can chew? never heard of a build party near me

so I'm thinking i can just buy a rivet block and lay it on my anvil and heat the rivets and hammer? should i just do this for the lulz and report back?

Why is there never an airgun general on /k/? There's usually a general for quite a few things; but that's not the point.

What airguns does /k/ have?
I have a .20 caliber Sheridan Bluestreak that seems to be from the late 60's and a .25 caliber Benjamin Marauder that's a bitch to pump.

>inb4 shit picture

Generals usually devolve into tripfags and anons shitposting at each other. Plus there's only the occasional airgun thread on here, so there's not much need to cull 20+ threads into one.
>>
>>30351039
I guess you're right. Reminds me of the first time I went into an /arg/. I thought I was gonna get to learn a lot of shit; but the only thing to learn was how to shitpost about rails and people calling each other poorfags.

But let's hope someone steps into the conversation.

I've got a .177 RWS 34 that I love. I was on the fence between .177 and .20 and I went with .177 simply because of availability for my only airgun.
