I'm 5'2'' and I'm about to stop being nogunz. Now, height has never been a problem with me since I'm fairly athletic (and also quite good with the ladies, mind you, still a virgin though) but I heard from some fucking lanklets about gun handling being a problem for a person of my height. Is this true? What are some good guns for starters for people like me?

If this legit have you shot guns before or are you complete newfag? I just had a buddies ex over and I was amazed how small she is compared to me and i'm asian and king of manlets at 6'1'', her hands were so tiny when she was passing me the green game I had to ask how tall she was, 5'1'',when she told me I was shocked. Doubt she could handle anything too serious gun wise, but you're also a dude so that might help. How much do you weigh?

>The Senate Armed Services Committee's version of the 2018 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) includes a sizable downstroke in what could turn into a program to finally build a smaller and less expensive aircraft carrier complement to America's increasingly expensive supercarriers.
>The provision includes $30M to come up with preliminary designs and cost options for such a ship, which then can be used to quantify the concept and how it would fit into the Navy's overall strategy. The newest supercarrier design, the Ford class, cost upwards of $12B per ship. Meanwhile the Trump Administration has mandated a 12 supercarrier force.
Looks like we could see a couple of ramped LHAs around 2030 boys.

Why? The navy is looking for a way to grow the numbers. The marines would happily have actual carriers for themselves.
>>
Fucking Christ. We need even more goddamn carriers? I guess the Chinks launching one shitty ramper is enough to mandate 12 super carriers and probably half the number of light carriers.
It would be interesting to see a highly automated drone carrier, that would scare the fuck out of some people.

She said she won't go unless I leave it because she thinks i'm just trying to be a tough guy with it. I'd rather be prepared in the event something were to occur.
Any tips on what to do here?

How does the part of /k/ that doesn't give in to fuddlore carry their spare mags? Positioning and holster recommendations encouraged.
Just bought this and am wondering if I should've spent 3x the price on a magnetic one.

US nukes the shit out of Europe, Soviets steamroll the shit out of Europe.
The Soviets go from "almost out of men" to just "out of men" in a very short time period. The Soviets are incapable of sustaining any real industrialized economy or war effort, but the US is unable to capitalize on Soviet weakness in a meaningful way due to the sheer scale of the theater.
Continental Europe is rekt in a way that it hasn't been rekt since the Dark Ages. It might still be worth it to get rid of the dirty, filthy fucking reds.

Its funny you posted this because I literally just got home from the FFL with my Marlin Guide Gun.
I got it for 480, and provided you get one that's not a lemon, its a good purchase. Mine was unfortunately a lemon and could not cycle a round when I got it.
I just got it back from Warranty repair and it cycles fine. Will shoot tomorrow.

I've got an 1895 SBL coming my way from possibly the slowest gun store in the world, with what's likely the slowest postal service in the world. I didn't want to chance any more waiting, so I asked them to stick some boxes of ammo in the package when they got around to sending it.
I've heard that newer Marlin rifles are better than they were just a few years back, and I sincerely hope so, lest I have to deal with the slowpokes in the store again.

Hey /k/, I am looking at getting my first 9mm.
CC is illegal here and it will "never" be used as a defensive tool, but rather a "sports shooting" firearm. That being said, I hate when pistols go full blown sports shooting mode and become cumbersome and impractical for real-world use.
Manual safeties aren't a turn on or turn off as I don't expect to be in a situation where a safety would be a hinderance (i.e. CC draw). I do have barrel length and magazine size laws, so I'm restricted to full size only and 10 round mags.
I'm also entirely uninterested in anything 1911 because they're all extremely over priced and usually only have 9 round magazines that sit flush.
I'm basically down to:
>Glock 17/34
>Beretta 92FS family
>CZ Shadow 2
>CZ P09
>Sig P320
I'm leaning towards a 92FS for the aesthetic, but I'm open to others' opinions

Becareful with Glocks as their limited 10rd mags are not as reliable as their standard cap mags.
https://pistol-forum.com/showthread.php?26433-Which-9mm-pistols-have-reliable-ban-state-magazines
It really all depends on what kind of gun you like and what interests you since CC is out of the question. I wouldn't mind having an M9 for a range toy, they're practical and at the same time extremely shootable and satisfying to use. You can get the Type F safety converted to a Type G decocker only for about $55 in parts.

Well my dude, I'd avoid strikers if it's realistically only a range toy. No offense to the fans but a DA/SA will have a better trigger. Of those I'd personally pick the 92FS, specifically the M9A1 with an M9A3 decocker conversion (or 92G-SD if it wasn't unobtanium, and no a Wilson is not the same). The CZ SP-01 is a better target pistol hands down but I find the wee slide to be a massive pain in the ass. I also know people who find the 92's open slide to be a pain in the ass though. Really this is all hot opinions though. Can you hold the guns before buying? Have you considered the fine but overpriced offerings of SIG? What exactly do you want us to say here?

You will be much happier with the CZ. Beretta has qc issues that have damaged its reputation, while CZ is highly sought after for its accuracy by competition shooters.
As far as aesthetics:
