I know this is old as time itself, but does anyone on /k/ actually prefer .45 acp to 9mm? Here's some expert opinions by the way:

Didn't read. Thanks for the pic.
Prefer it? Yes, I prefer it. I love the way it shoots, I love the way it feels, I love how god damn big the rounds are compared to other pistol cartridges.
But my carry gun is a 9mm, because as much as I LIKE the fuddyfahv, in terms of ballistics, recoil, and capacity it is equivalent at best and inferior at worst.

Who is that qt in the pic?
Sup /k/? I have decided my first rifle is going to be M1 carbine. Keeping it iron site. Any recommendations on brand or other tips?
Stick the barrel into your rectum
buy a copy of Larry Ruth's owner's guide. it's a pretty concise resource.
if you're doing it as a collector's thing it has a ton of historical information too.

>Please be as indepth as you can
You first. An in-depth analysis requires an in-depth scenario to analyze. Tell us what China wants, and why, and we'll see.
>>29712745
I'll ask the Chinese lady who jacks me off after a nice backrub.
What do you think?
Anyone own a gun store? why wouldn't you lan transfer a gun

Shit, I was gonna post this thread.
Which of you assholes disappointed the Ian?

This is all news to me

>>29712662

Kurganets is xboxhueg, Bradley is obsolete, Stryker has wheels (lol), Namer perfectly fills in an Israel-sized niche, BMP-3 a shit gun
did I miss anyone important?
Why is no one talking about this ?

Pretty sure this shit happened all the fucking time a few decades ago.
I am more interested in the whole China Sea crisis more since that does feel like something that's going to tip over.
and i'm sure if the Russians had a Navy we'd do the same

So my girlfriend and I are buying a house soon and I've decided that I'm going to use the garage as a shop. I intend to build a small forge and metal furnace in order to make stuff, but I have one thing I want to make a shitload of. 80% lowers.
Does anyone know how much aluminum shrinks after casting? Have a CAD drawing for an AR lower, AK receiver (While iirc it can't be aluminum it can be forged steel), FAL receiver or even a G3/PTR91 receiver?
Also, general weapon smithing thread I guess.

the igs files open fine in solidworks, I never bothered putting CAD on my home computer. And the blueprint files are just pdfs and are decent. I'm not downloading some random exe though.
I want a home forge and machine shop...I just don't really want my own home...
pic of pdf blueprint for ar10
Sweet, thanks bro! Once I get the house and get set up I'll post up to show the work. I suspect some people on /k/ will want a lower or 2.
Why do you guys obsess over these weapons when you shoud fear the day you might actually have to use them. Guns aren't toys to fuck around with. They're meant to kill people.You're all just faggots with inferiority complexes that want a gun to feel "powerful".

Any /k/entuckians here enjoying the airshow?
Here's a livestream of the local news for anyone else wanting to watch some shit. Luckily I live around 2 to 3 miles from Bowman Field where all the civilian aircraft take off and land at so I get a few flying over my house.

Dammmmmmmnnnnn I just want that skinny scope to put on my A1
Also apparently won't have that rail on the receiver when they do come out. Fucking Steyr making the AUG that a lot of people want, but only making a limited run of them.
STG 77?

WHY THE FUCK WAS I BORN IN NORTHERN IRELAND!
>>29712473
I thought people living in North Potatostan could own rifles and handguns without too much trouble.
/k/, I never had a balisong before, what do you recommend?
>>29712235
>what do you recommend?
Don't get a balisong.
>>29712235
Buy a cheap $10 gas station one. Go through a few of those before you consider buying something like a Benchmade.

don't if you like the skin on your hands
What is the best way to go PMC without being Exmilitary? I know it's tough and less common, but it happens. What are my best chances?
My areas of focus are Intelligence and Strategic/Tactical studies
>>29712209
Why the fuck you would you go to a PMC with that kind of background? So you can play cowboy? Just go to a think tank with the rest of you International Studies majors
>>29712209
Nobody's answering cus you're dumb and you won't make it no matter what.
>>29712209
Many years on a big metro SWAT or Federal SWAT. Few guys who were on Pittsburgh SWAT and Dallas did contracting work. Not sure if they were ex-mil though. Prob.
>Investigators said Ferry, 55, fired one bullet from a .380-caliber pistol that hit Goodding, 39, under his ballistic vest as the sergeant moved toward Ferry.
>cop shot dead by one .380
How did he die so easily while wearing armor over his vitals?
What does /k/ think of this?
>>29712026
This just in, bullets are deadly. You dont need a .460 to 1 shot someone.
Its all about shot placement. not joking. i read about a cop that shot a guy multiple times with 9mm, only to be killed by one .22 mag that went through his armpit and into his heart.
>>29712050
That's cause .22 and it bounced around and turned his organs to mush.

Egyptian Army or Turkish Army ? which is more stronger ?
>>29712004
more strong or stronger.
not more stronger
>>29712004
Turks
Probably Turkish. Egyptian is corrupt mess or par with Syrian army (pre-civil war), while Turkish has made efforts to get themselves modern first world equipment and training. That said, the Turkish military is still brought down by the same workshy cultural trappings that make the Italian military so farcically shit, so good toys doesn't equal good army.
