Is .25 ACP really more worthless than .22LR for self defense?
29 posts and 7 images submitted.

>>34757359
It's not, people just neglect to compare test barrel length when spouting wikistats
>>
>>34757359
Increased reliability from a centerfire cartridge and generally higher-quality firearms.
.22LR has the reputation of bouncing around inside of someone's body moreso than .25ACP, and .22LR is much cheaper and more available.
Neither are amazing man-stoppers. Choose whichever one suits you, but I wouldn't rely on either one.

Meh. It works. Not my first or second choice, but anything that goes bang is a lot better than a sharp stick.

I have a severe astigmatism in my dominant eye. I need suggestions for some non-magnified/very low magnification red dot substitutes. Not trying to get anything over 1.25x.

I was in /akg/ yesterday, and got some recommendations for either the rakurs or PK-AS with a 1913 rail mount.

Etched reticle is the name of the game. Price isn't a concern, not like I can be picky anyways.

It's going to go on a FN-15 carbine if that matters.

The Pump-Action is superior to all other types of manually operate actions.

why is it better than the Lever gun?
-Can easily use a more conventional and stronger locking mechanism such as those found on the bolt action.
-Can be easily operated in the prone position
-working the action does not throw off the aim
-Finger can remain on trigger while working the action
-easily designed to be magazine fed
-doesnt require your hand to be inside of a ring.
-The bolt does not comeback in your face when working the action
-bolt can lock up inside barrel instead of receiver, so the receiver can be made of lighter material.
-jams are easily resolved like on any semi-automatic rifle(remove mag, operate action)
-can be scaled up easily.
-easier to manufacture
-smoother action
-stuck casings can be mortar dropped, unlike lever guns which you have to break across something.
-easier to disassemble and clean
-action is barely exposed when operating the action.
There are probably more.

why is it better than bolt action?
-action is easier and faster to cycle.
-finger doesnt have to leave trigger to cyle the action
-the bolt doesnt comeback in your face when cycling the action
-stuck casing can be mortar dropped to open the action, unlike bolt actions where you have to beat the bolt open.
-the action can be more enclosed
-can be just as accurate
-non-dominant hand can work the action.
-scope can be easily mounted directly over the action.
-can be easily operated if you have one hand.
-if the gun fire out of battery, there is a receiver to hold the explosion.
-nothing to get hung-up on while moving through thick foliage
-action is barely exposed when operating the action.
There are probably more.

prove me wrong.

The owner's manual of my gun says you should never dry fire indoors because you might forget to unload the chamber. That gave me an idea. Why not do all your dry firing with your gun aimed at a tank of water? That way, if you ever have an accidental discharge, the water will stop the bullet. I'll call it the safety tank.

Hey guys, I've got a question about accuracy, more spec. Pistol accuracy. I'm pretty decent with a rifle, it just comes naturally. However, I'm a real crap shot with a pistol. Even at short range, it seems I aim at point x, but hit 5-6 inches away, or miss the target. I do the standard grip, and just changed firing hands from left to right (right eye dominant but I'm a lefty, so there ya go).

What could I be doing wrong? Even if, say my bore was shot out, how bad should my shots be? I don't have money for classes, and I'd rather just level up my pistol skills myself. Any tips are greatly appreciated, as this is just embarrassing.

I used to be the same. Dry firing exercises really helped me.

I went with a laser system. When I first got it I thought something was wrong with the laser target because I never hit it.

I'm a lot more accurate now.

This little trick was, for me, a huge help in tightening my groups. It's called a "gip". All it is is just a tiny little mark, line, scratch, or anything, on the very top of the front sight. I used some of my wife's nail polish, and a little sliver of wood as a 'brush'.

Simple principle really-- when you're shooting, you just concentrate on that little spot when you shoot. Do all your normal things... hold your breath a moment, use the middle of the pad on your finger, firm push-pull grip, relaxed stance, smooth trigger squeeze... but don't take your eyes off that gip.

That, and about a zillion rounds of practice and you should be good to go!

One of the GQ threads here ignited my inner gear fag and I set off on a whirlwind scouting and shopping spree in my AO.
I ended up scoring this backpack for $20 after I talked the woman down a bit. It's my first tactical style backpack, and it looks legit, but I ca'nt find a label in it- idea on model or name?
It has a plastic stiffener in it ( which I emulated in my other backpack with a pair of cheap plastic cutting boards.)
My other question is- which pocket is for the hydration bladder?? Does it go next to the plastic stiffener or does it go in the rearmost pocket that's almost an exterior pocket? Is it designed for a specific bladder, or could someone recommend one?

Do you guys think that people are spoiled and just complain about everything?
I was in the muhreens, two deployments to talibanistan. Pretty familiar with trigger pulls on different weapon systems.

I recently bought an M&P Shield MA compliant. This means ten pound trigger pull minimum.

Its easier to criticize on the civilian side because we have the time and luxury to do so.
Theres also a difference between "usable" and "preferrable".
If you enjoy stock triggers, then great. More money saved for you

The DHS is releasing highly-trained and deadly MS-13 terrorists from El Salvador throughout the America.
They are extremely well trained with military training to carry out political assassinations, as well as narco-terrorism. They are working with the Sanchez-Peretas gang out of Peru, which is essentially the Peruvian Army, and are the intermediary between Middle-Eastern terrorists who are brought to Peru, and "Mexicanized" so that they look like Mexican immigrants, and on their way up to America, they receive para-military training at MS-13 base camps outside San Salvador. They learn to fire RPG's, 50 Cal machine guns, AK-47s, and M16s. And they learn how to throw hand grenades. Assume that they armed with these kinds of weapons. They are planning a "Tet-Offensive" type of very bloody and extremely violent terrorist attack in many cities in America, once the order is given to release them from the safe houses they are currently living in within major U.S. cities. And it is all coordinated by the treasonous DNS.

Putting aside the location of the war - so we can remove endless variables and discuss wars between countries that are nowhere near each other.

China V India

Iran V Saudi Arabia
Canada V Australia

China if prolonged, but in the border strife im putting chips on India.

UK vs France i'm not sure. Both are modern, but crippled by budgets.

Iran wins unless KSA has near unlimited US support. FFS saudis can barely beat Houthis while the Iranians have extensive experience gained fighting Iraq, Israel, and in Syria (Hezbollah and Rev Guard). Iran has a larger population too.

Canada vs Australia = the emus and beavers win.

Turkey vs SK, worst Korea wins handily. They HAVENT gone through a recent coup attempt, have a modern airforce (like Turkey does), and by all accounts have an excellent military tradition in terms of professionalism. They were highly effective in Vietnam at least.
