Have any of you ever had a gun drawn on you and you didn't have your gun with you but only a knife or nothing at all?

I want to know if it actually has ever happened to any of you yet because it fucking sucks when someone is aiming at you.

Hey, /k/! It's /tg/ here; I was hoping to benefit from your generous knowledge of history, weapons, and matériel, if you have the time.

The long and short of it is that I'm part of a group playing Call of Cthulhu- we've been set up in 1925 as part of what is essentially a black-budget FBI operation to infiltrate and take down a world-spanning cult. To this end, we have a substantial budget. We've been debating on what would be the best conveyance in terms of bang-for-buck/speed/flexibility/armament/shtf potential. So far we've come up with some pretty interesting ideas- maybe purchasing a smaller-end zeppelin with a scout plane and machinegun, maybe purchasing a seaplane tender, maybe going after a decommissioned U-Boat from the Great War, or even picking up a big flying boat, like an Aeromarine AMC.

Obviously they all have their strengths and weaknesses- we don't know if we're going to have to visit any landlocked cities, for example. So tell me; if you needed to carry around a bunch of men and guns to hunt cultists in the 20's (and need to possibly bomb/strafe/observe them from the afar) what do you think the best transport would be? Were there any other cutting-edge military gems we could seek to obtain that were around in 1925?

Why doesn't the military issue reloading equipment to infantry units? Wouldn't it be cheaper to have infantry reload their own spent brass instead of buying it?

I was thinking about getting my Medical card, but I like guns too much and I heard they could be taken away.

>inb4 degenerate

Haven't smoked the stuff in years, and don't plan to be habitual.

Does anyone have any experience in this area? (What it means, Purchasing a firearm, owning them, if they keep track on your background, ect)

I understand that it's still illegal on a federal level, I'm just looking for second opinions.

Help me pick my first rifle, /k/. Here are my criteria:

>Must be semi-auto
>Cheap and plentiful ammo larger than .223 Remington
>Available in reasonable condition (i.e. bullets come out when you pull the trigger) for $400 or less
>Spare parts must be easily available
>Slavshit acceptable but alternatives are preferred

Right now I'm leaning toward an SVT-40 but I want to know if there's a better option. Pic unrelated.

Bought an original WW2 PU scope on ebay, and have the tracking number. Bought and paid for on December 8th of 2015. Estimated delivery via ebay is January 7th-25th. The only curious thing to me is it's been in transit to the United States after departing the Vnukovo International Airport. Been that way since the 19th of December. I'm just curious as to how long it would take for another update on it? Another week or two? Not anxious yet about it, just wondering what would hold up a plane sending a package for almost two weeks and no further update?
