Hey /k/, I got a joke for you.
What do you call it when a German shoots 400 Russians?
A decisive Soviet victory.
Three Nazis walk into a BAR...
What do you call it when your country unconditionally surrenders, all the women are raped, and it gets divided in half? German tactical victory.
Ever hear about the KGB magician?
He could make people disappear.
What are these weapons.

AK pattern firearms
Gun on the left is a saiga conversion, gun on the right is a Wasr with tactical furniture
I live in a country where .308 is the largest calibre I'm allowed, and I have a .308. The only ammunition I'm able to buy comprises:
Winchester Sierra Matchking
Winchester Power Max Bonded
Winchester Supreme Ballistic Silver Tip
Remington Core-Lokt
Reloading is not legal in this jurisdiction, and necessary supplies are not available.
I understand the Silver Tip is a high stopping power, short range load. However, anyone approaching my property is definitely a threat even at several kilometres range. Which round is the best choice to engage intruders at long range?
Where the fuck do you live?

I live in Peru, a country with a tough history of terrorism and strict weapons laws. Indeed, the main threat I'm concerned about is Shining Path guerrillas who might want to bother me, as otherwise I live in a pretty remote spot.
Flash forward, The Trump is president and one of his first orders in office is he removes all issued pistols from every police force in the country.
Instead using the money he has made from being an amazing businessman he writes a blank check to every LEO telling them to buy their own individual pistol of their choice and he will foot the bill.
So tell me /k/ if you were an LEO in Trumptopia, what would you carry to protect the thin blue line?
XM25
sexual assault rifle that fires 18" floppy dildos

Ok so I've been slowly putting together my B.O.B it still has a fair way to go and will probably cost a fair bit. I also want to get a rifle. I was wondering what do you think should take priority the B.O.B or the weapon.
My head I'm leaning B.O.B because you need the ability to survive. But the weapon would offer me defence.
What comes first /k/?
>>29726865
Build AR.

get a fucking .22 rifle. it's cheap and you can carry 1200 rounds of ammo for 10 pounds. .22 out of a rifle will flatline a nigger with a quickness out at 150 yards, and it's easy to shoot. you're mostly going to be shooting varmints for food, and anything too much bigger will ruin the meat.
With things being the way they are, I would go for the rifle before shot gets out of hand. If you avoid overpriced gimmicky bullshit then putting together a B.O.B is pretty easy and consists of shit that's not subject to being banned, restricted or scared into wildy inflated prices.
Nothing in my B.O.B was purchased specifically for the kit, it's mostly shit I already had. I can't really slap together good rifle and a couple hundred rounds of ammo.
The allowed rifle rounds for hunting deer in Ohio are 357 Magnum, 357 Maximum, .38 Special, .375 Super Magnum, .375 Winchester, .38-55, .41 Long Colt, .41 Magnum, .44 Special, .44 Magnum, .444 Marlin, .45 ACP, .45 Colt, .45 Long Colt, .45 Winchester Magnum, .45 Smith & Wesson, .454 Casull, .460 Smith & Wesson, .45-70, .45-90, .45-110, .475 Linebaugh, .50-70, .50-90, .50-100, .50-110 and .500 Smith & Wesson. What does /k/ think would be the best choice for a mix between availability and effectiveness?
>California has better hunting laws than Ohio
Oh jeez man
Wait, are you fucking serious? What the fuck is this autism? .44 is the only acceptable thing here for deer. Or fuck it, .500 S&W.

>availability and effectiveness
.44 magnum
In the most recent video of Man at Arms: Reforged they did the Green Destiny sword from Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, which is pretty much just a Chinese Jian. (Video here: http://youtu.be/ObYP1jTJ9MM)
For the sword, they decided to use 1095 and 15n20 for their steels for pattern welding. Obviously, the two steels are used together often because they weld together very easily while at the same time producing a very visible pattern after acid etching. However from what I understand neither steel is a great sword steel; 1095 is too brittle for larger blades because of its higher carbon content.
My question is did they just forge a really nice looking and well made wall hanger, or is there something in the pattern welding or heat treatment that makes the steel combination useable for swords?
They're just making it look pretty

Amateur Blacksmith / Metallurgist here
Back in the old days, iron was smelted in a primitive kind of forge called a bloomery; effectively you had a bunch of layered iron ore and coal / charcoal; and over many hours (sometimes days) of forcing air through said bloomery, you'd get a heap of 'sponge iron' at the bottom. This was then worked to make an ingot of iron. Sometimes, you'd get ingots of exceptional quality, which were early steels. Medieval ironworkers knew nothing about alloying, or how carbon influenced the formation of steels, it was pretty hit or miss.
Steels of that time period ranged from passable tool steel to effectively wrought iron, so when a bladesmith found a piece of good steel, they'd layer it on top of pieces of iron, folding it together to give them more to work with / homogenize the piece of metal.
This is how pattern welding came to be, the etched patterns are purely cosmetic.
More info than you probably want > http://www.oakeshott.org/metal.html
1095 and 15n20 are both blade steels, honestly if tempered properly they're likely fine for light combat use. Man at Arms swords are more for show though.
Keep in mind anything made now is going to be lightyears better in quality than most swords available in the Middle Ages / Renaissance, 500 years of technology tends to do that.
>>29727145
Not op, but that was pretty informative.
Even though I knew most of that stuff, it's still nice to hear additional info.
I've seen the bloomery technique in action. Always wanted to try it out for myself. But where the fuck am I going to get raw iron ore?

Is it a bad idea to buy a "high end" 1911 as your first handgun?
>>29726144
>Is it a bad idea to buy a "high end" 1911
Yes it is a bad idea. Just get a 9mm polymer gun and learn how to shoot. Save the 1911 for when you know what the fuck you're doing.
>>29726164
>Save the 1911 for when you know what the fuck you're doing.
How exactly will shooting a better gun make the 1911 stop being a piece of shit outdated design?
Both have full power bullets, no?
Are machine guns full auto, and battle rifle semi auto with bursts?
>>29726057
Yes. Everything you think is correct.
nah, the machine guns go pewpewpewpewpew while battle rifles go pow pow pow pow.
You need to play more CS:GO, that thing can teach you everything about assault guns.

FN FALs have full auto. But they are battle rifles.

It actually makes sense for the F-35B.
The real question is why buy the F-35B instead of the F-35C?
