So I just turned 18 and have a couple hundred bucks to spend, maybe more if I get any gifts from family members. I'm planning on ordering a Mosin within the next two days. Before I do, I just wanted to know if there are any other good rifles for cheap that aren't .22 as I've already got two of those. I'm not very up to date on pricing so I figured a Mosin would just be the best bet. I also thought about having my dad buy a Tokarev and gift it to me, which to my knowledge would be legal, but I decided I'd rather have a rifle so I can go hunting and shit. By the way I'm in Commiefornia until I'm out of college unfortunately. Thanks for any help in advance.

Mosins require research up the wazoo for a first gun.
Aim for a 10/22 buddy.
>>29293185
Just got one and I didn't realize how much of a pain in the ass they are to clean and specifically the trigger assemblys fickle-ness
>>29293168
Maybe a SKS.

I don't want someone to do all the work, just give me a few bullets and I'll expand on them myself.

is a car good cover from gunfire?
Concealment, not cover
>>29291545
No, the body panels offer little to no protection from anything bigger than a .22. Rounds will ricochet under the car and strike you. It is better to flee, do not try to flee in the vehicle, use the vehicles to conceal your movements and fight/flee.

Pistols, yes. Rifles, no.
What's the best weapon to defend against an American invasion? I'm thinking IEDs and perhaps javelins.

No it's Canada. If trump wins he will make America fascist and declare lebenraum on my country.
Hey /k/, forgive the stupid question. I'm a /noguns about to become a /hasguns and I'd like to know, why is a .22 considered a joke for a concealed carry weapon?
I mean, when I watch forensic crime shows, probably 75% of the time when someone is killed, it's with a .22, so they're obviously lethal, but people say the .380 is about the minimum caliber to be effective for self defense, and some even say that's too small.
Some of the pros of a .22 would be that the ammo is dirt cheap and plentiful, and the recoil is lighter, letting you be more accurate, but on the other hand, obviously a.380 would be more powerful. Do I really need that power?
Thanks. Pic is what I'm thinking of getting.
The reason so many kills are with .22 is because it's common. But if you shoot someone center of mass with .22 you're not reliably putting them down, especially through kinda thick clothes. I wouldn't rely on it.
>>29290960
thats a great gun OP, get it. and it's not considered a joke for concealed carry, there's a reason why the military and police all rely on the venerable .22
>>29290960
It's not, there are just such better options available.
My dad is going to be 70 soon and he can only rack the slide of a 22. For instance.
Hey friendly /k/unts, do share some of your experiences. I'm sure I'm the biggest idiot here but you're welcome to try to take the cake.
I just got back from my LGS where I paid $900 for a S&W highway patrolman. I was without Internet connection and couldn't do a quick price check. Still, I'm a stupid motherfucker and it stings. I do like the gun very much so there's that
I spent 80 bucks on a CZ magazine during the Sandy Hook fallout
>>29291013
I can't blame you for that one though
>>29290906
Are you so impulsive that you couldn't leave the store and look up the value of the gun, then go back and buy it later if it was a good deal?
Is this really the best folder under $150?
>>29290790
Spider knife is objectively an excellent gun. The rest is in the eye of the beholder
>>29290790
Yes.
>>29290790
No.
The tip is very fragile and the handle / edge ratio is quite shitty.
I dont think they make them anymore but the Bill Harsey Lone Wolf line was pretty good.
If I had that money to blow on a user folder I'd probably go for two identical Cold Steels

Why can't you get .22 WMR anywhere anymore?
>>29290580
It's pretty stupid. All the idiots that accidentally bought the other 22s have learned by now. Maybe fudds think it's the next caliber to disappear and hoard it?
My PMR-30 has 1000 rounds in reserve and I see it intermittently at my LGS, but I've moved to 9mm for plinking.
>>29290580
Canada must be grabbing up all the reserves, since it's the strongest round they can get without magazine limitations.
Hivemind!
are you a member?
why or why not?
I am, for the free liability and theft insurance. protecting my rights is also good, but the insurance is what put me over on joining
>>29290326
No, because I live with turbolibs who would make my life a living hell if I were a member of the NRA.

They're like the NRA, but they actually care about gun rights, not just protecting manufacturers. They were formed by people pissed off that the NRA didn't fight import bans.
