>Midwest Industries side mount rail
Did I do good? I'll do a before/after when it all arrives, here's the before picture though. All shitty Tapco stuff.

Oh, and this is my first time I've done this sort of thing so go easy on me.

If curious the magpul stuff is Zhukov/MOE AK+ respectively, and the Tapco is slotted. Handguard comes from Khyber Customs and I don't know much about the rail but it was the one everyone was reviewing on YouTube. From start to finish it took me two days.

At the end of it all, my total was $405. Tried buying everything I could from MidwayUSA to save money on shipping. I was gifted the AK, so that helped tremendously. Would've gotten a better muzzle device but I was aiming for ≈$400 and decided the $20 one was better than not having one at all. Most expensive items were the handguard upper/lower ($100), rail ($100), and zhukov stock ($100).

Lastly, fuck you /akg/ for not replying to my post and forcing me make this thread.

You guys need to UPDATE the stickies to include information for Safety for NOOBS.

If you are a NOOB and are looking to get into firearms, the best book to read is "Boston's Gun Bible".

It teaches you everything you need to know about firearms.

1000 pages long, it goes over safety, etiquette, backstory of firearms, and modern firearm training.

After reading this book, I am shocked to know that many "pro" youtuber safety instructors don't even know the 4 Safety rules of firearms, or the 5 different Conditions for Firearms.

Nothing, they know nothing.

Mods, update the stickies!

I'm thinking about picking one of these up as my next gun purchase, but I don't know anybody who owns one. It wouldn't be my main carry gun (I have a Sig P938), but I'd probably enjoy shooting it at the range, and I think I'd appreciate it for Colt's build quality more than I'd enjoy buying a Sig P238.

Does anybody know what sorts of improvements Colt did to the Mustang when they reintroduced the model a few years ago? Are the new ones more reliable? I've heard mixed reviews about the old ones, although I prefer the old style rollmarks and would probably prefer an all blued one, which isn't made anymore. Just looking for thoughts from anyone with experience.

What are the advantages and disadvantages to using trenches in a modern war such as Syria or Ukraine?

Trenches and foxholes are still used extensively in Ukraine, but how effective are they and what is their purpose and tactical use?

It's Sunday, /k/, and time to confess your sins.

I'll start.

I unironically like H&K (probably because I grew up with a lot of Cold War-era literature). I am a nogunz. I like Warhammer 40k. I also like the occasional humor threads and it's my favorite part of summer.

Probably some other stuff too but yeah.

What have you anons done?

Does /k/ practice their deescalation skills? You can't draw on everyone and seeing that you aren't women most situations won't immediately deescalate themselves. And flashing your weapon can be considered a "terroristic threat".

I've only recently heard about the VSS and VAL rifles, as well as the AK-9.

Is anyone else interested in 9x39mm, or at least have an intellectual curiosity?

I'd love to have an AK chambered in 9x39.

I'm taking a road trip across country in a couple weeks. Starting in Virginia and will be heading out to Wyoming, then south to Utah and Arizona, then back east along the Gulf coast. I'm planning on bringing one pistol, but I don't have a concealed permit. Any tips for transporting a firearm across multiple states? Also, I shoot best with my XD, but would it be better to bring my 1911 in case I go through any states with magazine restrictions?
