Hey, /k/. Why do inert rounds cost so much? I'd like to practice with my AR, but I don't want to use live rounds indoors. Also, I like them for 'flinch' testing when I'm shooting at the range.
Why do inert rounds cost more than live ones?

Because they're marketed to fags who don't have a reloading press
So morons

Just dry fire your AR. It's fine.
The only reasons to buy dummies are:
1. It's a rimfire firearm
2. You want to mix dummies and live rounds in your magazines to actually see how bad you're flinching.

>>28406008
Because they are individually machined instead of stamped out and filled en mass. They are not mass-produced like regular ammo because they are not high demand consumables.
I recently bought 2 of Fox Labs 5.3 come formula for me and my gf. I didn't know there was a difference between the cone and stream at the time I bought them.
I've heard people say that the cone formula is more effected by the wind and it can blow back in your face but how likely is this? Are they pretty much gimped to where I should just try and get a refund to get the cone version or does it not make a difference?

I've had good luck combined with lubricant, they can be quite stimulating

Stream. It's direct and works out to about 20 ft
>>
>>28405986
Slight wind can mean you get fucked cause of the aerosol effect. Stream keeps it in nice globs that won't go astray when the wind blows.

Abolish the laws that have crippled the nuclear industry for decades and retarded technological progress. Nukes will out compete all other sources of grid electricity and energy will be so cheap that heavy industries will sprint back to America and we will have exactly zero reasons to care about goatfuckers in the desert. I also just solved climate change.
Establish a serious long term strategic stockpile program. Copper, cobalt, platinum, basically all important industrial materials. Grow the stockpile a little every year until America is immune to supply disruption.
In 20 years America is not only the most powerful country we are literally invincible.
This will never happen because our politicians are incompetent or evil and our military actually just a collossal welfare program.

Oh yeah supply shocks are a huge worry for manufacturing so the strategic stockpile is another big reason to locate in America.
Now demand for skilled labor is so huge that not even our liberal education mafia can brainwash kids into taking gender studies, they take shop classes again because they want that big paycheck.

How to power cars trucks construction equipment tractors fishing boats aircraft and tanks without oil?
But that said, yeah I would love to see a 100% nuclear, hydro, and wind power grid with cheap electricity everywhere. Unfortunately liberals fuck it up like they do everything

Too many luddite retards in America to make that happen.
If an F-35 was sent back in time to 1941 with enough supplies to last for 10 years of nonstop fighting, could it defeat the IJN by itself?

If OP was sent back in time to suck all the dicks for non stop sucking, is he the biggest fag?
>>
>>28405546
It would be immediately spotted by WW2 radars and shot down by WW2 fighters since it can only carry 4 missiles.
>>
>>28405546
No.
For once, one F-35 does not carry enough payload to take out an entire fleet. Which means that Japs could employ the single most effective AA possible - tanks rolling on your airfield.

What are the downsides, if any, of a 1911 chambered in 9mm?
Pros:
Increased capacity (10+1 vs 7 or 8 +1)
Cheaper ammo
For me, I already have guns in 9mm and none in .45 so I would not have to feed another caliber
Cons:
???

A 1911 chambered in anything but 45ACP just feels like heresy to me
>>
>>28405391
You're gonna be doing an awful amount of mental gymnastics trying to justify such a thing.
If you're worried about capacity, why are you even considering the 1911 in the first place? If you really like the ergonomics of the 1911 and the SAO trigger, go for it I guess.
If you were to get a 1911, get one in .45 or there really wouldn't be any point.
Why would somebody shoot a man before throwing him out of a plane?

Just sand it down and restain your desire color.
Watch videos about staining wood, it's the same principle. It's not different just because it's a gun.

Op what is your personal opinion on this gun? I am looking to buy one myself.
I have my next gun narrowed down to a .22 pistol, an AR15, or a .357 magnum revolver.
I currently have a 9mm, .45acp, AK, 2 mosins, 2 shotguns, .22 rifle.

Does /k/ have any advice on how to maintain a tight group while pushing back distance? Pic related was done with 25 rounds out of a Glock 19 at 10 yards. Once I push the target out to 15 yards my groupings increase out to the 9 ring

Don't suck so much dick.

Focus on how your trigger breaks, make sure you're focusing on the front sight.
>>
>>28405076
positive grip, comfy stance, good breathing technique, practice.
with handguns the slightest movement becomes exaggerated at distance. just the way it is.

What's the best convertible mitten glove for winter operations?
For shooting in the cold, I think these are better than gloves with the trigger finger tip cut off and stuff. Anyone own a pair they love?

Those finger parts look mighty thin for winter operating.
I just used some cheap-ass winter work gloves + undergloves during conscription inna FDF and they worked just fine.
For real cold weather and night-time guard duty in -30C pic related combo.

I'm imagining finnish rifles being made with a trigger and trigger guard that is operated by sticking your whole hand in and squeezing, like a giant bicycle break handle

I am an American traveling to Prague in 2 weeks. Is there anything /k / related I should buy? I know they have fairly lax laws by yurop standards. I was thinking maybe trying to ship back a hard to find AK variant or something

You won't be able to bring back the receiver or the barrel. If I were you I'd keep an eye out for milsurp gear.
When will they make a smaller version of this?

I want a p239 so badly, but they're just too expensive for what it is. I have no problem with $5-600 for a gun, but not one that is obsolete and inferior to other guns.
>>
>>28404428
I found a used p239 for $500 flat 25 miles away from where I live but it's in a ghetto area so fuck that.
But yes, I do agree it is pretty obsolete but I'm a sucker for the sig's da/sa
