What exactly was the point of these ships? Just to carry extra-large missiles that wouldn't fit inside submarines?
>>34360977
They were made to kill carrier battle groups from long distance with the help of land-based, long range naval aviation assets like the Tu-22. It was a strange, asymmetric way to counter American sea power, No idea if it would have ever worked.
>>34361163
In 80s, that could work with high chance of success. Nowdays, and without the refit of "Orlan" - most likely it won`t.

the point is to show all you fucking tiny dicked AmeriBurgers that Russian dick is the biggest.

Admit it: cleaning them is almost as fun as shooting them.
What products are you using lately? how often do you clean them? any funny things you've found out about the process of cleaning them.
I am usually a Breakthrough/hoppes + CLP type of guy, but lately i've taken a liking to ballistol just because I'm lazy and I don't always feel like opening a window and putting on a respirator every time I want to clean out a gun after shooting it, Hoppes seems to make me light headed no matter what I do, but it works the best.
The one thing is I hate what Ballistol does to the slides of semi autos. It feels like you just dipped your gun in burger grease and makes the slide slippery as fuck. I generally only use it for the barrel and put a light light coat of CLP on the exterior (I live in an extremely humid area so this is necessary)

other than OP calling it a "general", it's on topic so why don't you leave if you don't like it, "fags"

44 is a hell of a thing OP. And unlike 10MM it can stop someone in a vest with just the deformation.

After a surprising amount of support from /fit/ after accidentally posting there, I'd like to ask /k/ something. I'm looking for a good handgun as a last ditch effort for bears. I was thinking maybe the tracker, but I'm a little weary of Taurus. I've heard their revolvers are decent though. I live near a lot of brown bears, so nothing huge but still deadly. Also, post your bear guns, I wanna know what /k/ is packing for old yogi.
>>34360314
10mm Semi Auto(theres plenty out there) or 44 Mag Revolver(Ruger Redhawk or Blackhawk(Or Super),S&W 29 or 629.), this are you're options, now choose.
>>34360314
my taurus .357 shot only warm
.357 through it and it always worked fine.The only reason i want to sell it is to get another gun.
>>34360314
just snagged my Model 29-2. Now I've just gotta order a galco kodiak chest rig so I can actually take it innawoods

Just got this non-refurb '51 SKS for 600. Wood is pretty beat up but it's all numbers matching and it looks like it's never been fired before. How did I do?

It would help if I posted a picture
I got this cheap 1 dollar knife at the dollar tree. Knife $$$ fags are wrong it's perfectly find and does the job.
3 inches
Stainless steel
If you want to pay 9 to 14 dollars more for one that has a metal Handel or a different lock for strength that's ok. But desu people exaggerate and this 1 dollar sharp piece of metal is more than ok for self defense or whatever.
Underage faggot detected.

Any opinion on dragunovs? Particularly Romanian PSLs
Looking to get one in December and want to know what I'm in for
>>34359432
>psl
Not a svd.
Its just a long wasr.
>>34359432
you should also look into M76, both the M76 and PSL are nice to shoot with but they work completely different compared to a dragunov
if yo uwant a TL;DR it's basically a AK with a long heavy barrel, and the M76 is an AK build for accuracy in mind chambered in 8mm mauser
>>34359432
>what do you think of Ferraris, particularly the Lamborghini kind?
You tried
Pawn shop near my house has a CZ99 for $300. Is it worth it or nope?
>>34359022
as a neat pistol yeah but as a shooter no not really. It would be a cool gun if you are into Yugo firearms history.
>>34359226
What's wrong with it as a shooter?
That's about $100 overpriced.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sten
>The Sten has been described as: highly unreliable, prone to jamming, and inaccurate beyond 30 meters. It was unsuitable for guerrilla operations in open country because it encouraged waste of ammunition. But it was easy and cheap to produce – a gun was said to cost fifteen shillings (three quarters of a pound) – and was supplied to the (French) Resistance in huge quantities.[3]
Was it really that bad or it's just a bias of the guy writing the book the quote was taken from?
Opinions on the Sten?
Gripping the magazine which may seem natural to some causes feeding issues
Why are Brits entirely incapable of designing their own firearms?

/k/ i just paid a deposit on a Sako TRG 42 300WM OD Green rifle.. however there is not an extensive amount of information on them online. Should i have spent a little extra on an AI or McMillan, or does anyone on here have a trg of their own and can offer some insiht?
>pic related pretty much the rifle i got
Sake is very good. You did fine. .300WM is a solid choice in caliber too.
What glass are you going to run?
Don't forget to put a deposit down on any spare mags you want. Kek.
>implying anyone here can afford that rifle
Good luck getting actual advice
I'm pretty picky about running shit steel cased ammo in my guns, and I refuse to run it in any of my guns.
But there's not any cheap 7.62 real fuckin' NATO anywhere near me, and I don't want to spend $16 in shipping to buy it online. People always say "RUN STEEL CASED IN G3 PATTERN RIFLES, THEY EAT THAT SHIT UP". Any truth to that? Should I just cave and buy $9 Tula?
The ONLY thing it will hurt is the extractor.
>>34357312
I Shoot steel case in my ptr32 works great.
Delayed blowback relies on retard strength to function, so it should be fine.

Hey /k/, I just bought my first gun!
It's an HK Mk23.
Am I operator yet?
Good job OP. Now that you have your home defense gun maybe you can get a CC gun.

what's cc? Credit Card gun? what's that?

Where is your silencer bro
How do I get over my obsession with guns? I've been a gun owner for about a year now and all I ever think about is which gun I'm going to get next, how well I'm shooting and how I can upgrade my current guns and what accessories I'm missing.
I guess it could be worse. I'm not obsessed with tacticool self defense classes, tactics or violence or anything. I just like the mechanical aspects of them for the most part. But I am spending a lot of money that I perhaps would be better off saving. and I spend WAY too much time on youtube watching gun reviews when I should be applying for better jobs so I can afford more guns.
I just want it to be a normal part of my life and not an obsession like it currently is.
is it something that fades away when you acquire more and become more used to them? or is it constant?
I'm the same way OP. Just got into guns in the last year, all I can think about. All I spend my money on. Oh well
Get int vegetable gardening.
What's funny is that it's not a "hurr I don't feel safe until I buy another gun" thing like the liberals told me it was going to be. My AR provides me with more than enough firepower to take on anything I might face, and my Glock and LCP allow me to be armed at all times, so I don't need anything more than those three to feel safe, now i Just want shit for fun. Like
-a 1911
-a shotgun
-a DA/SA pistol
-a precision rifle
-a DAO semi auto
-a revolver
-another .22 of some sort
-a full length barrel AR in either A2 or A1 configuration so I can teach women and idiot friends how to shoot (I don't think my AR recoils that much but people who have no experience shooting tell me it does)
-more wondernines because fuck it I love 'em
in that order. I can't afford any of this shit right now I make 10/hr. I should have put that 270 away instead of buying an LCP2 for my birthday but fuck it it's my birthday.
