Why are there so many gun related accidents in US but so less in Switzerland?
Why are so many children (accidently) shot in US but so less in Switzerland?
I get confronted with that question all the time when i (try to) explain to ppl that guns are not bad.

>>28594208
The per capita rate isn't that bad but saying we have 30,000 deaths involving firearms every year sounds scary as fuck.
Basically all of your questions boil down to the fact that the US has 350 million people and Switzerland doesn't. Plus in Switzerland, IIRC, everyone is trained so they can act as a militia. Unlike the US where congress is too damn cheap and too many antis to have that happen.

People are now using 3D printers to print their own firearms. Millions of schematics have been circulated, with hundreds of different designs.
Currently there is absolutely zero laws against making your own homemade firearms.
How does /k/ feel about 3D printed guns?
>I am in full support of gun laws, and the right to own, but this seems a bit to far. How can you guarantee the safety of the plastic? How do you know the hot expanding gasses won't warp the plastic rapidly? How can you guarantee accuracy, seeing as how metal will shave off the barrel a lot faster than a metal barrel? So what, a 13yo with a grudge can now print off firearms in an afternoon? A mentally unstable person now has access to firearms when they were previously prohibited? Criminals can now mass produce their own advanced weaponry? How do you trace the weapons in crimes, when you could literally just melt the evidence? How do you detect them in places such as airports or government buildings?
I feel like the uncertainty of the aspect leads to a lot of unanswerable questions. At what point does the safety of others and the value of other lives weigh in more than your own individual freedoms and rights? You can still own firearms, produced with specifications and tested rigorously. Do you really "need" plastic ones?

Can we have a thread on motorcycle cavalry/Recce/etc? Specifically WWII types on those Royal Enfield bikes? I'm interested in the guns, the uniforms, the gear, etc. for reference.

It was actually a tasteful movie.
A tasteful Micheal Bay film.
The CIA chief was a cartoon character though
And the Air Force proved itself to be the world's most irrelevant branch yet again. This was the USAF's fault more than anyone else.

/v/ related, but still interesting
Thread to discuss ideas and methodology for surviving SHTF. Time for some real talk about painful truths.
Background: Married, professional, 4 yr old daughter. Live in suburbs, near a large city but not too close. Have only a couple of weapons (12 gauge pump shotgun, Ruger 10/22).
The plan: Using a separate bank account and PO box I secured a small piece of land in the mountains. My wife has no knowledge of this. I build a small, mostly underground, 2 room shelter and stocked it with supplies. This will be my destination. I have supplies for one person to make it at least a year, and enough land for a garden to supplement it. A small creek nearby can provide additional water (I have filters). My likely plan will be to tell my wife I am going out to check on a neighbor, and then driving to my shelter.
Problems: First the wife. Do I leave her the 10/22 or bring it with me in case I need to hunt small game? I can see both ways. If roving hoards attack she will surely be raped/murdered. Do I leave the 10/22 so she has the suicide option for her and our daughter if needed? I almost think it would just get captured so might as well take it with me. Second problem – daughter. She will likely be killed or sold into sex slavery. I am not too worried about it since we can have another. Do I chance bringing a child with me or is it better to let them take their chances at home?
Final part of the plan is to act like I was kidnapped if SHTF is resolved quickly. That way my wife will treat me like a returning hero and will never know the difference.

Hey /k/ filthy nogunz here to ask a few questions. Im always seeing and hearing shit on the news and internet about guns and i want to hear from people who know what they are talking about.
First thing; 'assault weapons', what exactly is an assault weapon? How do assault weapons differ from other weapons? Can u make a weapon into an assault weapon?
Second thing; the media acts like some guns are more lethal than others. Dont all guns posses the ability to kill something? Why ban some guns and not others? Why not ban all guns? Why ban guns at all?
Third thing; does different brand ammo really matter? Shouldn't the same gun performer the same with the same caliber ammo if its a different brand?
Fourth thing; is possible to 3d print a gun and ammo? Why or why not?
Sorry for all the questions, i just hate hearing claims with no explanation or anything. Thx guys.

>First thing; 'assault weapons', what exactly is an assault weapon? How do assault weapons differ from other weapons? Can u make a weapon into an assault weapon?
Mostly a buzzword. Derives from a real thing: the assault rifle. Less directly, a breaching shotgun. An assault rifle is a fairly small carbine like weapon that fires a cartridge somewhere between a traditional pistol round and rifle round. You probably already know this. Crutialy assault rifles must be light and fire in single,burst and/or full auto. A breaching shotgun is usually just a normal pump or semiauto with no stock and a short barrel.
>Second thing; the media acts like some guns are more lethal than others. Dont all guns posses the ability to kill something?
Some guns are more lethal than others... sort of. Any class of weapon that can put out sustained controlled fire is usually considered "more dangerous". But this can also (incorrectly) be applied to rifles like the AR-15 which looks like the m4 but isn't an assault rifle because its semiauto only. Or some people are just dumb because they think a thumbhole stock constitutes an assault weapon. This is blatantly untrue.
More later.

Since people are already answering your post better than I can, I'll just tackle a part.
Yes you can 3d print guns, but currently there is littl point to it. When you fire a gun there is a lot of pressure released and plastics don't last very long and the gun breaks after a hand full of shots. What is kind of taking off is 3d printing parts of guns, generally ones that don't experience explosive pressure. And in the end it is just something blown way out of proportion by the media since making firearms isn't really all that hard, and I wouldn't be surprised if even you could do it after a little research online, here, enjoy an example!

>First thing; 'assault weapons'
Assault weapons often refer to semi automatic rifles like your regular ak and ar rifles. It's a term they came up with to make them sound scarier.
>the media acts like some guns are more lethal than others
True. Pistols and full size rifles/shotguns are on a different level from eachother.
But it still often boils down to where you got shot.
>Third thing; does different brand ammo really matter?
Hunting ammunition like soft point and hollow point is designed to expand rapidly and kill. It makes for a lot of energy transfer instead of just passing through you, the wound channel will be much larger. FMJ ammo is less deadly, it does more of a clean pass through.
>Fourth thing; is possible to 3d print a gun and ammo?
Technically yes, because you can 3d print the receiver which is considered the "gun" on a gun.
Ammunition however cannot be printed.

I want to buy an M-14 but I'm not sure what I should pay for it. Online they range from $1,300 - $2,200
What's a fair price if I find one at a gun shop?
Also, is the socom 16 possibly a better choice? I've been told it isn't as accurate as a classic M-14.

>>28599529
longer the barrel more accuracy in this case. Go for M1A loaded, I bought one 3 years ago and I'm very satisfied with it. About $1500 give or take. Don't listen to milled vs cast receivers debate, there is no practical difference with current metallurgical process. And finally, don't pay any attention to that dumbfuck Ian and his M1A torture test. M1A is an improved garand design and during D day they had their garands wrapped in plastic bags while traversing the surf, if this is the kind of rifle you want know that it will serve you superbly as long as you dont pack mud in its receiver, oh the horror
>>
>>28599529
classic is great, scout is best, socom is last place.
M14's are fun too shoot, can be really accurate, and are a great gun.
people will tell you there are better choices, and there might be, but none of them feel as good or look as good as the M14.
its just great, /k/ hates things that are expensive so you will get a lot of hate for even making this thread

Hey bros, I'm not a /k/ regular (desu I don't use the board at all) so I don't know if this has been already discussed or not.
I saw this pic in another board, and I was wondering if it is legit. I have a Colt 1911 and I go to the shooting range like once a month, I'm pretty casual but it's fun. So, does the curve trajectory really work? How do I use the equation to find out the speed of the swing? It looks pretty complicated.
