Finally hasguns edition
Just bought my first piece, /k/. After roughly a year of lurking, I am finally a hasguns. Paid $230 for this Russian SKS from 1954. How'd I do?
Other than the stock being kinda fucked in a few places from the cosmo and general dings and scratches, the rifle appears to be in excellent condition (to the best of my knowledge). The only serial number that doesn't match the rest is the magazine, but that's ok because I intend on getting a different one anyways. It has a "AT" as the first two characters in the serial number, wondering if anyone knows what factory made it?

i imagine you're canadian ,in that case you did good,if you're american you did fantastic ,post pics of the mark.
>>29938198
>$230 for AKA
Holy fuck, did I fall through some sort of wormhole through time?
But seriously, that was a damn good price for an SKS these days. A steal, really. Good work, OP.
>>29938376
he could be canadian .
Assuming you had unlimited resources, how would you build and customize your perfect rifle (or other infantry primary arm)? Assume money is no object, so there's no need to compromise on anything.
I want a bolter. Fuck practicality, if I have all the resources I need to make the gun I want, I want a bolter.

Full retard AR in .45-70.
for task is the rifle for?
assuming for me to fuck around and play with forever and ever?
some type of SMG with a built in suppressor, a fun switch, and a full collapse stock. That shit is just sexy fuck. Mp5 Navy perhaps. Maybe just a 10.5" AR in 223 and a suppressor. either way, something like that.
shit like that is straight sex.
Trying to get into handguns but follow up shots like you see in competition seem impossible, so what's your personal tricks and routines you do to practice for quick, precise pistol shooting?
>>29938128
Practice.
>>29938128
Also interested in practical shooting too. I've read small bits but it sounds like the two grips to practice would be weaver/center axis close body shooting for indoors or inside of a car while isosceles would be best for inna woods/parking lot longer range situation. Thoughts?
>>29938128
Using two hands is a good start.
How would our modern world feel if we were to experience the civilian constraints of a total war? Or rather, suppose there was somehow a total war which did not go nuclear and devastated the world economy and shipping and air trade, reducing the amount of supplies we could import.
How would we ration food, civilian items, and luxury today? Would the internet and television be censored in the same way we taught everyone "loose lips sink ships"? Would we use "point cards" similar to credit cards to ensure every person can only buy an supply of food rich or poor.
The US is so stupidly rich at this point that it would take a nuclear war or Yellowstone erupting for that to be an issue.

welfare and foodstamp queens in cities riot and burn everything to the ground if you tried to ration anything.
Farm owners cattle owners etc. would likely fight back when their farms suddenly no longer belong to them and their assets either seized or no longer paid for.
Jobs are lost on a major scale.
ALOT of people die one way or the other, we're all fucked by then anyway...

>rich or poor
oh and already mentioning the lower class either eats each other, loots to survive, no doubt the upper class will easily be able to pay to take care of themselves...

I know it's a Taurus but my lgs has it on sale for $249.
This will be my first gun. Do you guys think I'm going to regret this?
Thanks :)
>>29937794

>>29937794
Got one for 200 the other day.
#noragrets
Tho I haven't made it to a range yet.......
>>29937816
Lol no I got it from/pol/.
A compact gun that you can get your pinky on for $250 with manageable recoil.
Can I do better then that.
I don't want to be looked down upon for owning a Taurus.
I just bought a South African Kommando LDP parts kit yesterday and want a hype thread while I wait for it to arrive.
I found a few threads of weapons guild on how to do the build, but I wanted to see if anyone on /k/ had any experience with this or other sten/cz type builds.
>post any and all builds of any type you've done or are planning to do.
I read general and was about to shitpost violently
As for the parts kit, do you have a print or know where to get a receiver for it?
>>29938108
Tricked you ;^)
Its going to come with an uncut tube. So like an 80% I guess
>>29937639
What sites do u use to find kits aside from Apex?
How do you protect yourself against armed men without using a gun?

A person who's shot a bunch of rounds inside of a school hallway with foamies in at the very most is pretty easy to sneak up on and stab in the throat. Most mass shooters are pretty shit tactically.
We all know full auto fire is meant for suppressing targets and it's not like in the movies where you see people spray accurately but would full auto be good for a self defense situation?
Yes, if you are assuming the self defense scenario would be within the normal 7 yards
Also you would have to train with full auto so you don't dump half your mag into the air

>20 rounds of .25 ACP fired at 1200 RPM
>>29937425
If you've practiced FA control, and whatever/whomever your target is is within 30', and you don't Swiss cheese the fuck out of your house I'd imagine it would be
2 or 3-round burst may be more practical (if only marginally so)
Since I've got around 20 guns I'm bored of guns.
Into knives now, but it's boring too. And makes me feel European.
What should I do?
>>29937253
Start smoking crack.
Are your guns super basic? Glocks, AR, and shit like that?
>>29937258
That sounds like a bad idea!
I want something to carry ten mags.
pic related, muh mags.
Should a go for some sort of load bearing vest or plate carrier with pouches?
On a related note, Okay Industries mags are best mags.
>>29936940
What the shitting fuck are you gonna do with 300 rounds of ammo that isn't at a range?

Did you just step off a little bird in somalia? The 90's want its shit ammo back
Why don't more people carry guns this way?

So, /k/, I'm conflicted right now. The previously based Martin Shkreli has bought the gun from George Zimmerman, and plans on destroying it. How does this make you feel?
>>29936759
>Shkreli
>Being an irredeemable cunt
Go figure. He was never based to begin with. I hope he gets rickets.
>>29936759
Shkreli has gone off the deep end with his trolling, I don't think he even knows when he's being serious or not
As long as Zim Zam gets paid I'm happy
>>29936799
He was fairly cool at first, albeit a bit cocky. But when corporate media misconstrues your actions as harshly as they did with his, I'm sure I wouldn't be the nicest or most patient guy in the world either.

Question to combat vets and LEOs. I'm from /pol/ but I want to see from /k/'s perspective if this could even be feasible
If we were to bring commerce to less affluent areas in America, we have the community and consumer's guarantee that they will be safe with police presence, but an auxiliary force among the community?
If you could be an auxiliary police officer for your community to patrol with the cops, and if there was an incentive for you to do it, would you?
>>29936627
You can't give power to those with nothing to lose and/or a lack of regulation. I hate to say it but most cops won't break the rules because they would lose their livelyhood, some rent-a-cop soldier of fortune wannabe could probably cut and run whenever he wants.
They'd probably abuse the system whenever they good, whether it breaks the rules to suit them or their ideals (street justice).
>auxiliary force among the community?
It's already done in many place, the time, training, and financial commitment means you will not attract less affluent members of the community and background screening is always an issue with a volunteer force.

Then set parameters.
