Yes. Lie about everything.
Post your main home defense gun and explain why you chose it.
Glock 34 with TLR1s
>small and maneuverable
>less probable that an intruder would be able to pry it away without getting shot a few times in the process
>can use free hand for lights or anything else necessary
>18 hollow points
>I can shoot fist size groups quickly at 10 yards with it
>worth less than my other guns so it wouldn't be as painful if it was lost in an evidence locker

/thread.
no one chooses a HD gun for any other reasons

Lelkek RDB.
It's literally as compact as a long arm can legally be without being NFA.
It's 5.56 out of a 17.5" barrel, which will both rekt'd soft tissue and not overpenetrate as much as many pistol/shotgun loads.
30 rounds that aren't anemic pistol caliber with the recoil of a 10/22
Can easily be handled and fired with one hand.
Suppresses phenomenally well.
In fairness I don't have one but I will if I can ever fucking find one for sale.

Good afternoon, /k/. I'm currently looking for a decently priced, fixed-magnification optic for an AR15. However I don't have nearly enough money to dump on an 1100-1800 dollar pic related. What optics do you fellow /k/ommandos use on your ARs, and what can you tell me about them?

Great budget optic, would rather not use in true SHTF though, the coating on the optics reflects a nice "shoot here" target.

Thinking about purchasing a 10mm glock 20 and using these double tap 200gr .40 S&W in it. Has anyone had this idea and could tell me if it's any good?

>>29746402
The gun is chambered in 10mm, so you'd be buying the wrong caliber.
>>
>>29746414
That's true, but it does work out. .40 S&W is comparable to 10mm short, like a gun chambered in 22LR firing 22 short or .357 in a .38. My concern is wearing out the .40 S&W chambered gun too fast.
>>
>>29746434
At least get a conversion barrel. You don't want to wear down that lip at the end of the chamber that holds the 10mm case.
>My concern is wearing out the .40 S&W chambered gun too fast.
Literally a non-concern. Both guns use the same recoil spring in any case.

So /k/, thoughts on what should and shouldn't be legal? Should citizens have access to the most powerful weapons they can actually afford or should some weapons honestly be restricted?
I think fully automatic weapons should be legal but not mortars and other heavy ordinance.

What are some of the best/craziest examples of a military using the landscape or non-military infrastructure to fight? I can think of the Germans flooding areas of Normandy, and the Soviets busting open the dam at Zaporizhzhya in Ukraine to stop the German advance. Can't really think of any others though, there's gotta be some...

I'm looking for a reliable concealed carry firearm, preferably in 9×19 (though if something that isn't in 9×19 is suggested I won't sperg). I'd like it to be single stack and generally very low profile. Anything else is cool. Suggestions?

For Concealed Carry, I recommend a Walther PPK, it's actually a very small pistol.
other than that, I'm sure there are an assortment of .22 cal "Hooker Guns" out there to be purchased, something like a derringer might be appropriate.

I certainly hope no one applies with a resume and questionnaire answers full of /k/ and /pol/ memes and screenshots it then posts results later.

target shooting is possible, but a 2 inch snubby isn´t made to be laserbeam accurate
>>
>>29746269
All guns are intrinsically accurate. The reason people think snubnoses are not accurate is because the sight radius is much shorter than a full size revolver. It requires a different aiming technique.
So please stop spreading misinformation. Next you'll say you don't have to aim with a shotgun.

Insurgency is super fun and /k/ related.
Good movement, not super arcade-y like CoD and not muddy and slow like RO. The gun play is quick and readily understood while at the same time technical enough to be fun to cycle between different weapons types and classes, unlike ARMA which (while good) can be overwhelming to first-time players.
