I'm pretty damn okay with this.

Hey /k/. I'm from /tg/ and doing gun related things. And while I've being doing some fantasy things I also want to remain somewhat grounded to actual gun mechanics.

My current question relates to handguns and their actions. I understand, with revolvers, the difference between single, double and semi-auto actions. Single action you need to physically pull the hammer back in order for the trigger pull to release it. Double action pulls the hammer back for you when you pull the trigger. Semiauto uses the force of the shot to recock the gun so you have a lighter trigger pull. That all seems fairly easy.

But with a standard handgun I can find no differences between single, double and semi-auto in the way you actually use the weapon. From what I'm seeing in video of actual firing, no one needs to pull the hammer back, no one needs to do anything special. They just squeeze the trigger and the gun fires. I'm sure they're vastly different in terms of internal mechanisms, but whats the actual usage difference between them?

When I'm firing a single, double, or semi-auto pistol, what is the difference in performance and how I do it? If they can all fire at about the same speed and reload at about the same speed, then in terms of gameplay mechanics there's no real difference.

Sounds like obsessing over minutia to me. Why not have a standard semi-auto in 9mm as the default handgun and another option being a revolver in a much larger caliber.
>>
>>28379618
Damage, magazine size, accuracy (if the system uses it).
>>
Double Action and Single Action only refer to the length of trigger pull, a Double Action makes the trigger pull also cock the hammer while a single action must be cocked before pulling the trigger.
"Semi-Auto" in this case is an incorrect term technically, gained in the 1900s when the first magazine-fed pistols began showing up. To differentiate them from standard Revolvers people called handguns like the 1911 "Automatics"which shifted to "Semi-Automatic" later to further delineate between weapons with continuous fire.
Semi-Automatic does not refer to the type of trigger action.

So, the SIG MCX can't stand up to even light weight abuse. Would not with stand military trials. Why do people buy these "Not ARs". They have no historical significance, they aren't interesting mechanically, they are just special snow flake guns that do nothing better than an AR-15 and just do things worse. I understand the 5.56 market can be kind of stale, but nobody wants these things.

Fucking why?

If you were fighting in a war today and the opposing army suddenly started attacking you with this, what would you do?

I think surrender would be a great choice.

Alright /k/, I just got paid and due to the fact that I have few bills and a ton of disposable income I want a new firearm. The budget to spend is $600-800. At the moment I have:
>1 Mosin in 54r
>2 Mausers in 8mm, and 7.65 arg
>1 black powder revolver in .44 cal
>1 completed AR15 lower

I figure I want to expand my collection to include a .22 or something else. Can /k/ recommend me something good? Keep in mind that I'm not yet 21 so super neat handguns are out of the question.

These kind of laws aren't new. In the end, Federal law trumps State law so the point is moot. Also, every single one of these nullification laws I've read has exempted machine guns. Have you read the bill?

>All machine guns, sbr, sbs, aow, and silencers are now legal in Wyoming!
They were legal before.

I'd probably move there anyway, but there isn't a big population of /k/ members that hail from there so that'd mean driving that much farther for meetups.

A friend sent me an email about these Hell cannons with some fear mongering about them being built in the US. Basically they are home made mortars that a welded together from plumbing and propane supplies.
I was curious about the payload used in these homemade mortars... So you know I can help the ATF be on the look out for baddies that dont love Merica. And like science and stuff.

I am guessing they use black or smokeless powder to launch the round, but I'm not sure how they detonate the payloads. Also in the following images that have a white powder mixed into the "hell cannon powder"

Also ATF I don't even know how to wield. Im just holding that machine for a friend.

a basic pressure trigger is not that hard to drum up, especially when your pressure tolerance is "metal slamming into asphalt at terminal velocity"

God, I want to see the progress noted on this study.

> Day 1: Subject is in good spirits, saying "I love MREs! I used to eat them with my Dad on camping trips. I get to eat the pound cake AND help my nation's army? Sounds like a win-win to me!"
> Day 5: Subject is still happy and excited about the project: "They're not bad at all. Some of the meals are even great. I love the spaghetti and meatballs. And of course, the pound cake is always good."
> Day 10: Subject has become quite subdued as of late and has abandoned his recent attempts at mixing meal components to create hybrid foods: "Goddamnit, I don't care if you mix that shit with grape jelly... there is no fucking way to make the chicken and rice edible. It's just fucking horrid. What if.... what if they just made the entire MRE out of those tiny Tabasco bottles? It would be an improvement."
> Day 15: Subject is alternately sullen and angry, demanding dietary fiber supplements and/or release from the project. Both have been denied: "Seriously. I need to shit. Nothing has come out of my asshole in a week. I... I need something, guys. I hear voices at night. They're coming from inside me. Please. I need to shit. Metamucil. Fucking Brussels sprouts. I don't care. I need to get rid of this thing."
> Day 20: Subject is noncommunicative with staff and has been muttering to himself in a language not understood by others. He has also decorated the inside of his habitat with strange runes painted with the jalapeƱo cheese portion of the MRE meals: "Chtullu.... Chtullhu ftaghnh hai...... he sleeps... he hungers....."
