What does "cycle the action" mean?
>>34193216
It's a made up Hollywood term
Make the action cycle. Ive only every heard it used when referencing to FTF and FTEs, so I guess it doesn't apply to just cocking the gun.
Making the action of the weapon perform one complete operation cycle. Using the pistol in your OP as an example, a complete action cycle involves the slide going all the way to the rear, ejecting the empty casing from the weapon, then returning to it's original position, whilst stripping a new round out of the magazine, and inserting it into the chamber. In short, the gun going from ready to fire, to ready to fire again.
So infantry tactical formations are outdated and worthless, right?
In what situation would you ever need an echelon left versus an echelon right, or a vee as opposed to a wedge? Stupid

Most of the WW2 "I'm up, he sees, me I'm down" is mostly BS. However modern Infantry places an emphasis on MOUT. At least we did mid 2000's.
Is the H&K HK4 a good pistol? Thinking about getting it for my CCW.
>>34193054

>>34193130
$500-600 .38 ACP
>>34193164
5-600$ for a single stack 38? No thanks.
I've got this old dagger that my uncle gave me, the rubber handle has dried and hardened and fits sloppily now. I want to make a set of wood scales for it.
I think I'd like to go with a red toned wood. I'm going to woodcraft and another local woodworking shop soon to see what they've got.
Looking for tips, discussion, techniques. Whatever.
1st. Make a grip with cold playdoo, so you can get best performance.
2nd. go to /diy/
You can get nice wood blanks on eBay and other places. Then just cut and sand to fit.
how come the Ak's been developed and improved up on so much and has had so many varaities of it made
yet the AR is the same with only few adjustments made to it?
Also post some AR and AK varients

Dafuq is a co?

>yet the AR is the same with only few adjustments made to it?
>>34192799
The AK is a simpler design. No real patenting, or enforcement of patents. So you have the most bastardized versions. Like companies in Africa just milling the most ungodly pieces of shit that still function.
What ate some good strategies for fortifying a medium sized building, like an apartment building? Would something like this be viable in a SHTF scenario? How would you pull it off?
What's the construction of the building? Because wood is a no-go.
What threats are you facing? Angry dindus is one thing, a platoon of regular soldiers doing their own thing in Zombieland is another.
What are you spending? And willing to store until need? Improvise? How many defenders? Physical shape, willingness to work together, follow orders, etc. Other apartments forting up you can co-ordinate with?
What's the area like? Big parking lots surrounding the building versus say, dense woods coming right up to the back of the building, is it a nice, quiet area or is already a 'know a dozen cops by their first names because everyone is a shithead' places, etc.
Makes a difference between Pavlov's House 2.0 and Davidian Compound 2.0

I came here to post this.
Also, if you're going to try and post snipers, never put them on the roof.
You want them as far into the building as possible, shooting out of a curtained window or better yet a hole in the wall.
With new technologies such as smart phones and action cameras, what are the implications of strapping cameras to weapons and recording combat footage?
Do you think recording entire battles are good/bad?
Why do people disregard opsec to gain internet cool factor?
would you say that more people are exposed to more war because of the thousands of hours of combat footage recorded on a daily basis?

Hey /k/. /k/anadaanon also, my friend is looking is at a Norinco t97 NSR. Now im sure most of the /k/anadians on here only know about the T97NS which has the carrying handle ontop. But i cant find any differences about the two rifles except the carrying handle, and cant find anywhere on google or youtube about the differences between the two. Also it comes with an eotech sight ($900 apparently) might be a fake, flat top receiver mod, 2x 10 round ar pistol mags, 3x 5rd ar mags, and a bunch of ammo for $1100 maplebucks. Should he pull the trigger?
>>34192175
Pic related is the regular t97NS. any differences?
Ask in the Canada general.
>>34192187
i just did
would anyone happen to know what these markings and numbers on the gunner sight of the Cobra are used for?
trying to figure this out for rising storm 2
the weapons seem to fire way lower than the chevron even at very close ranges
how do these things work?
>>34192093
rising storm 2 fucking blows and tripwire are a bunch of lying greedy cucks
it blows my fucking mind how you can go from ost front 41-5 to butchering ro2, kf2, ect
>>34192347
Either lazy or don't care, kind of like your shit quality punctuation.
I'm bored, wanna do some research on new weapons, and yet I'm tired. Please tell me about how useful your weapons of warfare are with the format below:

Sorry if I sound stupid, but this seems like a good place to learn...

Google.
5.45x39
9x18 Mak
+It goes boom when you pull the trigger
- it does not keep booming holding down the trigger
Hot water if shooting corrosive ammo, or at the very least oil it a bit.
Mosin Nagant "3-Liner" M1891
7.62x54r, Use non corrosive ammo, I personally use
either Tula or Red Army Standard FMJ rounds
+makes loud bang, will kill nearly anything
-Bolt action, needs stripper clips to load somewhat fast
Its a bolt action rifle, that's all I really need to explain
Clean it like any other bolt action rifle, although be sure to reinsert the bolt FIRMLY.
What is this?
I found it laying on the ground at my range and nabbed it. Before you sperg out: I was the only one there, I was there for about 3 hours and nobody showed up at all, let alone to look for it.

Cock ring

It is a level of some sort.
>>34191942
I gathered that, but what was it doing at a gun range
Anybody have any experience with these guys? I've been wanting to take some classes and these guys aren't too far away from me(about 2 hours or so).
Or would anyone recommend any other places that are near northern indiana?
>>34191872
The only experience i have is meeting the owner while dicking about in DSA proshop. Couldn't talk long but he seemed calm and had that calming effect you'd want from an instructor. Thats all i got for you.
Hey /k/,
I don't often frequent this board, but I thought you guys would be the best to advise me on a matter I'm wondering about.
I'm an ausfag and recently purchased a lead loaded irish shillelagh from Ireland. It has only occurred to me after the fact, that this could be classed as a mace/other deadly weapon or potentially have issues getting through Australian customs because it's made of wood.
If any /k/ommandos could please advice me on the chances of actually receiving it I would be incredibly grateful.
>>34191801
call customs
>>34191819
I already lodged an inquiry online and the turn around is about 2 days, I just thought an ausfags here might be able to advise, because I can't seem to find anything on general forums.
