>Makarov grip looks like a dick
Have you noticed this, /k/?
Well I like dick so it's okay.
I'm not seeing it, but I'm probably not nearly as familiar with black dicks as OP is.
>>29496216
it's been a meme for at least seven years now.
So, the store I work at got robbed.
I wasn't there, but a lot of my co-workers were.
I was already thinking of getting a gun just for funz but this sort of drove home to me that where I live isn't as safe and small-town as it used to be. Just another reason to grab one I guess.
I've always kind of liked revolvers. Any recommendations for ones to be looking at for a starter wheelgun?
I'm not really looking to break the bank, just looking for a fun thing that might also be worth having around 'in case'.
>>29496117
are you planning to carry concealed all the time?
>>29496117
I will give you some recommendations, but first, most you want too spend, way your gonna carry it(shoulder holster, pocket, IWB, ankle, Mexican) stainless or blued, old or new?
>>29496117
Budget?
BREAKING: A recent systematic review study has showed that there has been no impact on firearm homicide rates from John Howard's firearms laws. None.
You can read the article yourself here: http://doi.org/10.1016/j.avb.2016.03.012
The article by Samara McPhedran at Griffith University reads:
"No study found statistical evidence of any significant impact of
the legislative changes on firearm homicide rates.
"...irrespective of the differences between papers in methodology, time periods examined, and level of geographical disaggregation, none found evidence for a statistically significant impact of Australia's 1996 legislative changes on firearm homicide rates.
"...if legislative reform is limited in its ability to reduce firearm homicide rates, then what interventions are most likely to be successful?...
"Indeed, there appear to have been few strategies implemented in Australia, other than legislation, which are specifically aimed at curbing firearm violence.
"...when the current evidence base is considered in a systematic fashion, there may be a notable discrepancy between empirical findings about the efficacy of Australian firearm legislation in regard to reducing firearm homicide, compared with what has been proposed within popular discourse about the impacts of those laws."
This vindicates what has been our position all along. Share this post and help us get the word out!

Bump, this is evidence that 20 years of solid gunlaws didnt do shit
Looks like we need some tougher gun laws, our current ones aren't effect enough!
>>29496087
the sad thing is no one will change their opinion on this just because it's proven to be inconsequential statistically.
people FEEL safer, and that's what really matters to them.
So I recently obtained a Walther p38 Luger from my Grandfather, no he didn't get it in ww2, he traded a tractor for it, but it is in very nice shape with the holster and even the bullets still in the mag. I was wondering what it might be worth, and if there's any way I could trace it back to a specific soldier, or unit. (I don't intend on selling it.) Also should I get it cleaned so I can fire it, or just put it on a shelf? (it hasn't been fired in over 40 years) AlsoAlso I can't get a picture of it atm, but it is a walther p38, with the numbers not the walther logo. Thanks in advance

>Walther p38 Luger
>>29495985
Must have been a shitty tractor to trade for it. P38s aren't exactly that super expensive
>>29496047
well this trade was 20 years ago, so they might have been worth more then ? I honestly don't know.
Whats the scariest thing you've seen a gun owner do or say k
>>29495962
I shot holes in my foundation
Point a weapon at me with finger on the trigger while engaging in casual conversation. It was loaded with the safety off

No, but it should be enough to get you into the van, or eliminate you as a witness if you don't.

Hello /k/,
Filthy disgusting nogun here and I have a question I suppose you folks would be most qualified to answer.
What is the realistic application of a machine pistol? I find machine pistols neat but I rarely ever see them used by someone who isn't using two of them while diving through the air (which I imagine is not the proper way to use one).
They seem like they'd be inefficient at almost any job I can think of them performing, with assault rifles, sub machine guns, and even non-machine pistols seeming to be much more effective or efficient.
>>29494939
Machinenpistoles are just small sized submachine guns.
They have there place in security, VIP protection, SOF, and anywhere where you need a tiny gun that still can hold its own and would be preferable to just a pistol
>>29494939
They serve tbe role well as PDWs and as compact crewmen weapons when in cramped vehicles (Bundeswher and the MP7)
>>29494939
Mainly used to protect tank crews or other people who need a lot of firepower with minimal accuracy in a small package.
Fragmentation wounds are still the primary killer on the modern battlefield.
Unpopular opinion time: Soft armor with a larger coverage area is more practical than plates by themselves...which is the rage these days.
There is always a trade off between mobility and protection. In COIN operations there is less of an artillery threat since the insurgents prime mover is Toyota pickup.
>>29494876
you know, most good plate carriers come with soft armor inserts, right?
>>29494915
Yes a good backer against spall penetration but I think OP wants us to wear big floppy soft armor vest style armor IBA
So i have a mosin Nagant 91/30, and the finish was just shit, and I stripped it and cleaned it, and degreased it and a million other things until the wood is actually new and nice again, nothing caustic, no bleach, but now that ive gotten this far, I cant decide on a finish. Even right now, I could shellac over it and make it look factory new, (Professional woodworker here btw) And itd look amazing, but the wood is so nice im inclined to just leave it clean and new, or my buddy thinks torching the woodgrain for a zebra effect would look amazing, and Im just a fucker and cant decide.
Before/after, current pics to come.
what should I do /k/? any other cool options?
I dont give a flying fuck if you hate mosins or if you think im a retard for fucking with a 'historical rifle' or some other shit, really just looking for options for a nice finish.
>>29494831
>>29494831
This is the rifle and previous images before doing a damned thing to it.
>>29494831
After stripping and cleaning
Top or bottom?
>>29494792
the bottom is better for cutting and general usefulness. the top is pointless mall ninja shit.
>>29494792
bottom looks cooler
>inb4 tanto shills start shitposting about how good a tanto is unironically
Thinking about getting one of these for a range plinker. How much of a retard am I being?
No plans to use it for self defence because

dont get it. your have to take all of the screws out and the body clam-shells open in order to clean it, you have to take any scope off too.
Its garbage. If you want an AR style .22 get one of the M&P's or just buy a 10/22 or a regular tube fed .22.
>>29494647
Seriously? Thanks for the heads up
is MI worth the price over cheaper alternative like UTG or stubborn mule?
>>29494524
UTG is literally shit. Like airsoft quality.
MI is 1000000% better
>>29494524
I wouldnt buy that since it looks like shit.

Hijacking post: best rail for AR with 5.5" barrel?
Is Nutnfancy considered a fudd or a mallninja or a gear queer?
A Queer fudd ninja. The triple threat.
>>29494373
yes
>>29494393
>new from Chiappa
Hey guys, so I picked up this shotgun recently
Got a good deal on it
I plan on cutting the barrel down to 18.5" because of the mild buldge at the end of the left barrel
The other issue is: the left firing pin does not protrude, it appears to have snapped off
Now I know they can be replaced but I am not 100% sure where to find a replacement
Any ideas? (more pics incoming)
>>29494370
you fucked up
