does this kind of thing happen?
sounds like you're suicidal
>>34689755
i'm not, i genuinely do not want to die and I want to live as long as i can however I am worried I'll do something dramatic if I'm intoxicated
>>34689748
Have you sat in your running car with the garage door closed and killed yourself yet? Have you slit your own throat with the kitchen knives yet? If you really think about it there is an amazing amount of ways you could kill yourself, I don't see why you are worried about this if you are not suicidal as you claim. If you really have to have instructions though here you go.
Step one: Don't shoot yourself. Not even when you are drunk or upset.
So, now that most of the US can be nuked by North Korea, what is going to happen?
nothing
>Implying NK wouldn't be turned into a fucking crater if they considered firing on any Western country
>>34689616
What did happen when US found out that USSR build a nuke back in 1949?
/k/ how effective are shotguns and handguns for home defense?
I went to a gun store recently and they told me they're both awful for defending yourself and just kept recommending me to get an assault rifle instead, I don't want an ar I want a shotgun.
Do the clerks make more money off of AR sales or something?
>>34689605
It isn't the gun that limits you.
It's yourself.
They are right and are actually saving you money.
>>34689630
the ar was like over a grand and everything else I wanted was like $500 though
Can we get a thread discussing .223 bolt action rifles? I want to get a cheap one. Looking for recommendations on what to get and what to avoid. Cost is the most important factor, followed by customizability and ease of complete disassembly
OP here. From the research Ive done, Im leaning towards Stevens 200. Though I heard the new Savage Axis is good (think its called Axis 2 or Axis XP). Any reason for me to look for something different, or should one of those fit the bill just fine
Pic in OP is a Stevens 200 in 300 Blackout btw
looking for one of these too. Why is it so hard to find modern bolt rifles with iron sights though?
>>34689384
What features are you after OP?
I've been looking myself, trying to be cheap about it to be honest. I've come across Savage Axis for about $230. I've also seen Thompson Center Compass for about $285(-$75 MIR). The TC Compass has a lot more features: threaded barrel, adjustable trigger, scope mounts.
My biggest hang up is that I don't shoot as often as I used to so I keep guilting myself into not making anymore firearm purchases.
So will guns become all polymer in the future the way things are going?
The only new guns being produced without polymer lowers/frames are older designs like the AR-15, CAS shit, wonder nines like beretta 92, sig 226 or cz 75, and revolvers. Everything else is polymer.
Will there be a day when everything is polymer, save for repros of old guns?
Who fucking cares about automatics? When do we get polymer revolvers?
That pic is obviously a malfunction due to the user, usp's dont do this, glocks on the other hand...
>>34689404
yeah keep telling yourself twice the price of a glock really makes a difference there.
Just put money down on a OD Green Glock ith night sights for $499. First Glock.
Did I do gud /k/?
What are the best mags? Magpul?
Are these special edition colored Glocks rare or potentially valuable where frame mods should be out of the question?
>>34689331
>What are the best mags? Magpul?
the ones that come with the gun
You spent $500 on a Gen 3, lol. The OEM mags are the most proven and reliable, obviously and no it's a fucking Glock with an OD green frame.
>>34689331
Glock are factory mags are the best factory mags out there. I have 1 Magpul I've been Fucking around with in IPSC, and it has failed once or twice but not recently
How would most people deal with vampires?
Imagine "I Am Legend" film style aggression, 30 Days of Night group tactics (but not magic or sentience).
No coming out at night. Dawn and sunset fair game. Light burns, so sunlight causes disorientation and discomfort. Gun-Lights are suddenly really important.
Feed until full or prey is converted. Horde rush tactics or if alone, stalking in the shadows. Prefer cold areas/climates.
Kill it like a human, blast it with a shotgun, it writhes on the ground in agony before trying to get back up. Like a roid-rager on PCP.
Stalks it's prey for hours and miles.
Senses fresh blood. Scream to summon help.
Spread via injections and feedings, first wave are heroin addicts and other trash.
Drag prey into "Blood Covens", where they feed on them and convert them.
What's your hypothetical SHTF with vampires?
>>34689265
No coming out during the day, I'm retarded.
>>34689265
Buy silver in tonnes beforehand and become the local guy with his own government funded anti-vampire militia.
>>34689265
Fine Garlic grenades
>can act as a smoke screen
>can cause to atleast scatter several vampires
>when used on self, vampires will be less inclined to drag you somewhere
>when used on a vampire, can temporarily cause a coughing fit to prevent screaming
Hi /k/, i'm planning on going into the US Coast Guard here soon, but honestly i have this itch in me that i don't feel any cause to fight for the USA, which is why i'm going into the coast guard where my focus will be more on protecting it's people.
However, looking into the situation in eastern Europe, i've had this feeling growing inside me. I would gladly give my life to support the independence of Ukraine, or to serve in the armies of places such as Finland and the Baltic States. Fighting against Russian imperialism is something i'd be willing to give my life for.
I also would not mind serving a nation such as Germany in the Bundeswehr. Ich spreche Deutsch (Nicht so gut aber ich lerne für zwei jahre auf Duolingo) und meine familie kommt aus Deutschland/Munchen
So i suppose my main question is, with military experience in the US is it feasible to go serve another nation? Would i lose my US citizenship and would it be possible to gain citizenship for the country i fight for? I know Australia, France and New Zealand accept US veterans to serve but not of any other countries.
Russian foreign legion is paying over 6 figures to enlist for foreigners.

are guns a good investment? are they recession safe?
No.
>>34689214
would the price of ARs right now is it the time to buy more?
>>34689196
Not really, most guns dont hold much monetary value.
Guns are a more practical purchase than an investment.
Post loaded weight edition.

""build"" isn't even the right word
You're just attaching an upper and a lower via the 2 push pins at that point, and tightening two bolts (the rear sight and red dot).
Extra super common RAS+SOPMOD was like 7.5 with no optic IIRC
Expect even less surplus ammo to flow.

People who make threads like this should be permabanned.
My grandpa gave it to me. Said he picked up at a flea market and they didnt know what it was.
I have no clue but have a bump cause I'm curious as well. Why buy a broken gun though?
>>34688816
It's probably a cap gun.
>>34688827
here is the other side
>live in a castle doctrine state
>someone breaks into your house
Say someone were to break in to your home. If you take them down with your first few shots but they continue to reqch for their now dropped weapon, is it legal to "execute" them per say.
>intruder is on the ground with gunshot wounds
>standing over him/her you notice they want to stay in the "fight"
>headshot or other kill shot to finish them while they lay there.
Did you go too far in the eyes of the law?
"Castle doctrine" laws are all copied and pasted across state laws. Ask a lawyer in your state.
>>34688771
So basically depending on the "fine print" it can vary?
>>34688754
If he's still a threat to you, you keep shooting. It's as simple as that.
Looking for a decent gun safe, preferably one that can fit under my bed and is biometric. Any suggestions for one that's reliable and affordable. I'm not a big fan of safes that require keys, but I wouldn't be 100% opposed to one that requires a combination. Pic related, one of the ones I'm looking at.
Why do you want a safe?
>>34688660
Because I live with my sister who's on probation and I don't 100% trust her. Also I have a nephew who comes over frequently and I don't want him blowing his brains out.
>>34688700
Why exactly does it have to be biometric?
Why are you keeping it loaded? If you're planning on using it for HD then why put it in a safe? I'm genuinely confused
