Assuming roughly the same shell size, is there any benefit of using one over the other?

Hey /k/, Im ashamed to say that I know very little about the Korean war. I understand the political history, but know virtually nothing about the technology. I notice that the closeness of it to WW2 makes it a very interesting time for weapons, and would like to know more about what weapons/vehicles they had been using. What upgrades from WW2 had been made?

Choppers and jet planes.

By and large most of the equipment was the same, the average grunt on both sides being armed with weaponry developed for WW2, with some exceptions

Maybe because nobody else would buy them?
The only reason to buy an SKS is because you did not want a bolt rifle, but were new to full size firearms.

>>30206556
and they were cheap as fuck back in the day

If you dropped $800 on a rifle, would you be inclined to do some retarded shit to it?

If only you spent $80 on a rifle and fucked something up, then you're not fucked.

If it's time to bury your guns, then it's time to use your guns.

Does anybody actually use a holster like this? I cringe every time I see them advertised.

I see countless things like this advertised. The masses generally seem to eat it up. I don't understand why you wouldn't just use an actual holster.

You guys missing the point of that style of holster aren't you. Its not for your carry gun, it's for quick draws in competition

Other than my reckless as fuck exit scene, I'm pretty happy with how well I did there. That was probably the most realistic dream I've ever had, even the feeling of the safety clicking off was 100% as it is IRL.

I later sold the 938 for being a massive piece of shit and moved out of Austin for the same reason. Forgot all about this dream until today when something a friend said made me remember it.

I had one I dreamt Friday night/Saturday morning that I typed out as soon as I woke up, made a thread but nobody cared. Might have to split this into 2. Keep in mind I was typing right after I woke up so it might not all make sense

>Rural Colorado, 1980s

>Dad and 3 kids living together, oldest 2 argue alot. Oldest (18ish) does something shitty, dad throws him out of the house. Since dad is a huge gun collector/hunter/prepper, kid sneaks back in through attic to get into house and steals rifle and ammo to survive awhile in the woods outside the house, since he knows how to

>While out goes into town and sees movie in theater about action/shooting. R Lee Ermy was in the audience for some reason

>Kid continues dropping by the house by sneaking in occasionally (really big house, so he can do this while his dad is home, which he almost always is), second oldest brother (15) argues with him and is mad at him for staying gone, Dad didn't think he would, throwing him out was more of a symbolic thing, youngest kid (like 7) just has no idea whats going on. There were lots of these revist scenes with dialogue I can't remember, mixed with general hunting in the woods scene montages.

>One time He finds hidden supply room in basement he never knew about, instead of just hunting rifles and stuff there's tons of milsurp equipment, finds a milsurp rifle with an old school night vision scope and a suppressor (cant visualize the rifle...thought it was an M-14 but might have been a CETME/G3....know that doesn't make sense but that's not the point, it's a dream).

>He becomes aware that his dad is part of a huge group of people in some kind of organization, but passes it off. Piles of books, papers, etc

Califag here going to school in Arizona.

I'd like to buy a bunch of guns while I'm here for school. I know you need an Arizona ID to buy one, but what about establishing residency or any of that? How do the feds actually know I moved to Arizona?

Also, if anyone could recommend me a good gun store in the Phoenix/Tempe/Mesa area, that would be nice.

Will it fuck up the finish? It was well oiled some days ago of that matters.

depends on the finish and tape, just scrub it with some 0000 steel wool and i think it will be ok.

So I'm thinking about getting a 45 and am looking at 1911s.
But they're almost as diverse as ARs!. What features/brands should I look for or avoid?

Hello /k/.

I have a question for those among you that have experience with AK style rifles. I'm studying firearms related topics at university but live in noguns Australia so in addition to reading course material, I thought I'd get some anecdotes here.

The question is:
>State the the maximum *practical* range of an AK-47 assault rifle and discuss the variables that reduce the effective range below this?

Anything you guys can share would be useful, even talking about how you find the AK relates to other rifles.
