At what point should one buy a gun safe? I live in a studio apartment in a gated apartment complex, and there's not a ton stopping someone from breaking in, but at the same time it seems like most safes that are worth owning cost thousands or tens of thousands of dollars.
Is there any cheaper way to protect my guns?
Are cheap, $300-$500 safes worth getting at all?

I saw a pretty decent safe at Costco for I think $500. 450 pounds and no exterior hinges, you might could check that out, I'm thinking about getting one myself.
I live in an apartment too on the 3rd floor and I want one too, I'm just worried about one falling through the floor and killing someone's kid or something.

anyone who is after your guns and is even halfway serious about it can get to them unless you have a pretty serious safe.
you could go to home depot and buy $10 worth of tools which would let you cut or bust 90% of locks, cables, or safes.
and even if you buy a real safe, it's just one layer of security. if you give someone enough time, they can get through anything.

Presumably the Ocean's 11 aren't coming after my $3000 in military surplus and walmart ammunition, but it'd make a pretty neat score for some enterprising urban youths in my area and that's who I'm worried about.
I at least want something that's going to stand up to the crowbar they used to get into they probably apartment in the first place.
In Canada, do stays in psychiatric hospitals affect my eligibility for weapons now that I am of age?
I was in a mental hospital for 4 weeks while I was 16. I'm fingerprinted, dna'd, photographed, the whole works.
I didn't attack anyone, just a weird drug overdose that my parents overreacted and I'm permanently fucked. I'm 22 now so this is old news but I would like to own weapons but I'm thinking my chances are next to nothing correct? Can anyone elaborate on my chances?
Is that Miss Alice?
I'm not used to seeing her with clothes on.

Please tell me that's not a dude.
Which color plate carrier would you go with for SHTF?
On one hand black has more of a LEO vibe and would probably draw less attention here in Houston, but on the other Ranger Green is pretty neutral and could also blend the city's surrounding vegetation.
I would probably just throw this over a shirt and jeans by the way.
>>29941093
Ranger green.
>>29941093
not black

Pretty much every SWAT team is wearing RG/OD now.
ITT we post the scariest/craziest shit that's happened to us while in the woods
>be me living in bulgaria (southeastern europe)
>be driving towards the nearest forest where i'm actually allowed to shoot
>bring my gas pistol and my air rifle with me, anything better than that is almost illegal because cucked gun laws
>arrive, start walking into the woods, planning to put some targets and shoot at them
>start hearing noises
>start walking towards the noises
>soon i find it's actually 3-4 ripped huge russian dudes looking like the guy in the middle of pic related beating and threatening some poor dude
>"WE WILL CUT OFF YOUR FINGERS AND SEND THEM TO YOUR FAMILY ONE BY ONE" one said in russian as he kicked the guy in the fucking face
>one of them had an ak, automatic weapons are fucking illegal here
> realize these guys could be the fucking russian mafia
>realize how deep in shit i am
>all that time i was hiding behind a tree, start backing out slowly
>one of them fucking sees me
>"hey stop suka"
>ohshit.jpg
>it was good 100 meters between me and them so i started running like mad but had the advantage
>get in my car and start the ignition
>the moment i pressed the gas i saw the dude with the ak come out of the woods running towards me
>drive the fuck away from there
>go back to the city and get dead drunk alone at home to celebrate my survival
Sadly i left my rifle in the woods, the moment i started being chased i threw the rifle on the ground so it doesn't slow me down
Since then i now go to an official shooting range, i don't dare go back to that forest

I used to find all kinds of weird shit in the woods and bayou next to my house.
One time my friend and I found 3 doors (like front doors to a house) propped up against trees with burnt yellow pentegrams spraypainted on them.
Another time we found a baby doll with its eyes plucked out hanging from a tree. A bunch of other plastic limbs were places on other branches and twigs which was also pretty damn weird.
Another time we found a swamp literally MASSES of vultures. It had to have been hundreds of vultures standing around or flying in a very small area. We pussied out and left, becasue I didn't feel like seeing whatever it was they were feeding on.
Why do manufacturers extend the grip as well with extended mags? It looks like shit and has no purpose on full sized guns unless your gonna double hand it like a long sword.

So, a metal tube sticking out of your gun looks better?
This gun yes or no?
Also would you fuck that tree thing.

That's weird art and unproportional.
Tree lady is probably Gaia but she has a mountain on her back smaller than gun. Gaia was a Titan and no I wouldn't have sex with her.

In Marine boot camp I constantly yelled "AYE AYE SIR" over and over no matter what they were yelling at me. Eventually they would think I was just one of those really really stupid recruits, and go scream at someone else.

Missouri to get Constitutional Carry Soon.
http://www.ksdk.com/news/politics/missouri-lawmakers-end-session-pass-gun-bills/191001661
http://themissouritimes.com/29796/house-grants-final-passage-to-controversial-gun-bill/
Even though it hasn't gone through Nixon, you know he's going to veto it because anti-gun Democrat, but it passed BOTH houses with more than the 2/3 needed to override the veto.
Anyone else in Missouri excited about this?
>>29940440
Saving pic for the MLP figures
West Virginia gets it in 10 days
>>29940440
That's not surprising.
Wake me up when California or New York gets Constitutional Carry and I'll buy everyone a steak and lobster dinner at the next nugget fest...in fact I'll do a tour de nugget fest and go to every nugget fest in the United States State by State and celebrate California or New York getting Constitutional Carry and feed everyone like kings.
Deal alert
Costco is selling ammo cans
2 pack for 19.99
I believe they are 30 cal sized
Just a heads up
>>29940362
In store or just online? I've never seen ammo cans in my local one.
>>29940383
They were at the entrance at my local store.
I have no idea what aisle (if any) they would go in
I would just ask an employee next time you're there my man
20 bucks for 2?
God, that must be some nasty shit...

I've heard there are full contact medieval combat clubs that do reenactments and fights. Does anyone know the name of this hobby/sport? I keep trying to look it up but all I get are normal reenactments in Europe, when im looking for more of a North American thing.
HEMA
Historical European Martial Arts
/asp/ is who you wanna ask about it.
IMCF, International Medieval Combat Federation.
They dress in full plate armors and beat the shit out of eachother with blunted metal weapons. Looks cool as hell.
From what i understand, the matches range from 1v1 to huge team v team fights. Also different weapons like one handed sword + shield, greatsword, one handed axe, battleaxe etc etc

Is that the same as Battle of the Nations?
Have my choice of a marlin camp 9 or a keltec sub2000. Which should I choose and why?
>>29939898
Do you own a glock or a 59xx series?
>>29939919
I don't own a handfun yet.
>>29939898
Depends on mags. Without mags, I'd say Camp 9. Simple, rugged, reliable, accurate, parts still widely available. Better ergonomics than the cheap feeling Kel-Tec, with it's fuck weird charging "handle." 2 issues: If it's still OEM, you must immediately replace the recoil buffer and spring. The original springs were too weak, and the buffer was nylon, which gun oil breaks down. Buy a new buffer from Midway, and a 16# spring from Wolff.
That being said, Glock mags are kind of a game changer.
What are the advantages/ disadvantages of direct impingement, piston, and roller/delayed blowback along with other notable gas systems?
Piston will jam way more then gas systems, in my experince
>>29939843
direct impingement sprays carbon all over the place and is messy, its like anal
blowback is a bitch to take apart
