What's /k/s opinion on the LH9? the "modernized" Daewoo pistol. Black Friday's coming up, I can't find really anything bad about it except personal taste and the da+

>>31932827
I usually go through SGAmmo.

>>31932827
Literally any website. Cabela's is hit and miss, as is Cheaper Than Dirt.

Gunbot.net has a good price list

>>31934371
I love my Daewoo
It's a great pistol for the price (paid $250) but at the price of the new ones I'd rather get something else.

>>31934415
Damn, I couldn't pick one up last year and they're saying this year is their last sale but they added the Novak sights and is gonna cost $550. I'm just dying on the inside because I missed out the first time

Does anyone have a 100% original untouched (vet bringback?) Kar98k?
I have some questions:
Is the takedown disk blued?
Is the buttplate blued?
What is the finish like on the reciever and bolt, matte or polished-like?

Where can I purchase a flamed arctic birch stock for a K31 rifle?

Was cleaning my Mini-14 and tried pulling through a .38spl or 9mm patch with an Otis pull through cable (chamber to bore) and the patch got stuck. Had to remove it by grabbing the cable with vice grips and just pulling it through with muscle grease. Bore looks fine but wish I hadn't of done that. Could I of hurt my barrel at all?

How do you clean a plate carrier? Is it just machine washable or do you have to do some fancy stuff or is it just not meant to be cleaned?

>>31935131
Take it to a local DIY car wash and power wash it. Let it dry in the sun.

My question: My AR's trigger pin likes to slowly drift out of its hole while I'm shooting. What can I do to prevent this?

>>31935006
No, as long as the cable itself was small enough to fit down the barrel.

>>31935451

so Is there a reason why the 9mm USP is so much more expensive than the other chamberings? alternatively, why is the .40 s&w so cheap? is there some QC issue I should know about?

I just want my Half Life pistol, goddammit. I've already given up hope of ever getting a SPAS-12

>>31936393
40 is cheapest cause the only people who buy 40 are forced to buy 40 or idiots. nobody smart buys 40 by choice.

>>31936407
whats wrong with .40?

not trying to start shit, I'm unfamiliar with handguns. the .45acp models aren't terribly priced.

>>31936412
I'm no expert but I hear it's the epitome of a compromise that neither side (9mm or .45) likes

9mm wants hella capacity, .45 wants hella oomph, .40 delivers neither.

>>31936393
>alternatively, why is the .40 s&w so cheap
Because it's the round chosen by law enforcement, it's like asking why 7.62x39 is so cheap. Cause there's a gorillion rounds of it manufactured for standard issue firearms.

>>31936443
>Because it's the round chosen by law enforcement,
more like the round forced on law enforcement
fbi wants 10mm since 9mm is too "weak"
bitches cant handle 10mm
start downloading 10mm so everyone can handle it
40 is invented
police see fbi use 40 so they want 40
40 becomes standard issue

bunch of posurp guns in 40 flood market cause nobody actually likes 40 but its whats issued so they have to use it

recently fbi switches back to 9mm

>>31936232
More accurate due to a more solid action.

They also feel fun to shoot, but that's just about it, not to mention their AWB proof.

>>31932827
I'm a bit retarded and I have absolutely no idea how to aim with aperture sights.

With open sights you merely align the notches with the front post and once it's level you're on target - but with apertures I just don't get it. There's nothing concrete to base or level your aim on. I understand the front post is supposed to be in the center but how do you even gauge where the center is when you're just looking through a circular hole? Is there some basic concept I'm not getting?

>>31936587
thanks, I was wondering why modern bolt action is still being manufactured when semi and full auto exist.

>>31936589
your eye centers the post in the hole. if you cant naturally do this something about you is fucked

>>31936589
The human eye has the innate ability to center an object inside a circle

>>31936604
bolt action is also just fun

I don't know how much that has to do with it though

>>31936614
>>31936616

My vision is a little bit fucky, that actually completely explains my trouble with it since apertures don't give me a mechanical basis for my aim. Thanks.

Well, (here we go, eh?) I'm not gonna get into the numbers because I'm no turbo Autist, but the .40 is pretty neat in places like CalIfornia. With 10 rounds, there's no reason not to take .40 over 9mm.
And because I'm an autist, .45 is too slow to penetrate, and 9mm is too weak. .40 shines in penetration. But more likely will you be shooting in am alley, than through a car window.
There you have it. War over.
9mm is arguably the best because more chances to hit vitals,
.40 for shooting through your window or plywood n Shit (I personally have an XD-40, but too young to carry [20])
.45 is good for well.. Suppression, really. Because of it's slow velocity.

>>31936617

Cycling the bolt is pretty goddamn glorious feeling.

>>31936639
>there's no reason not to take .40 over 9mm.
except for the cost of training/practice
its easier to shoot 9mm than it is 40

>>31935006
It's fine.
>>31935860
Yes, as long as it is fitted with a stripper clip guide. Some do not have them (they are commonly swapped for a module meant for mounting scopes).
>>31936010
FNS-9 runs $500 new, you're saving all of $20 by going for a .40 (presumably a used one), unless you really like .40 S&W for some reason it's not a particularly stellar deal. I wouldn't.
>>31935876
God knows. Her entire term in office probably.
>>31936232
Lighter, cheaper, easier to maintain, typically more accurate per dollar spent and pound carried. Also more reliable since there's less shit to go wrong.
For both hunting and serious long-range shooting bolt-actions tend to be dominant because either you're going to want to carry the lightest rifle possible or the advantage of follow-up shots is simply not significant enough.
>>31936393
>>31936412
>>31936435
Most people don't like .40 because while it is more powerful than 9mm this comes at the cost of less magazine capacity, more recoil and higher ammunition cost. The boost in power is virtually negligible. Therefore, it's unpopular and .40 guns have shit resale value. Good deal when buying used if you don't mind .40 or can convert the caliber to 9mm with the cost savings.

Only advantage of .40 I've ever seen is that price/availability stays consistent during a panic when 9mm dries up and costs $1 per thanks to scalpers.

People pretty much never fucking stopped stockpiling after sandy hook.

You know how hard it is to get .22LR where I live? All the shops have a 300 bullet daily quota and run out within a couple days getting a shipment. I have to run around to the Bass Pro, the Gander Mountain, and the local gun stores to get shit. It's not as bad as two years ago, but it's still shit.

9mm isn't much better.

.22lr is basically extinct where I live.

Newbie question here.

I got myself a Colt AR (yeah I know, fuck Colt). It has a classic drop-in handguard, you know the one with a ring that locks it. I was thinking about picking up an MLOK rail system, and I guess I just have to remove the handguard and the ring and I'm good to go?

>>31932827
I want to reduce spalling by a considerable amount on my raw plates, and I want to do it on a poorer-than-poorfag budget. How would I go about doing this?

>>31936589
>>31936614
>>31936616
It's an optical effect, not a natural centering or whatever the fuck you guys are saying. The aperture reduces the depth of field and suppresses parallax as a result. So as long as the front sight is close to the center you can just focus on putting the front sight on target. You don't have to align the front sight in the aperture much at all.

It's like the difference between a camera with a wide vs narrow aperture.

New to guns here, thought I'd throw a question out there.
I recently zeroed in my new 22lr bolt gun on 50 meter without issue, but once I tried it out on another range reaching out to 100 meters, It hits a feet or two below the crosshair, even with the height adjustment maxed out.
It feels like I overlooked something simple since I assume shooting 22lr at 100 meters should be fine, right?

Oh, and are GRS stocks a meme?

What they are saying is that the right to hunt and fish will be constitutionally respected, and that the only regulations that can ever be put on hunting and fishing are the regulations specifically approved by the state legislature.

Basically, no federal mandate, alphabet soup agency, executive order, or governor order can ever restrict hunting or fishing, only the Indiana state legislature can.

If the distance you are shooting at is beyond your repeat zero, which with zero of 50 has your zero/repeat zero as the same distance, your further shoots will be low. That's just how it works.

If you want to hit easily at 100m, you have to figure out what zero gives you a repeat a 100m.

There is nothing wrong with .40.
People who dislike it either want more ammo per mag (9mm) or more bullet per bullet (.45).
The major problem with it is that it is not too much better than 9mm to have a bigger advantage in terms of incapacitation

With the huge increase in gun owners, their business has skyrocketed. They are no longer the old Brownells. They've extended themselves too far and tried to grow too big. I think it's a Brownell vs Potterfield competition.

Its not a bad choice, but neither is anythint that takes Glock mags. It's covered in plastic and is butt ugly...have you looked at the Aero Survival Rifle? Do you already have a semi-auto you plan on borrowing mags from?

Tikka T3 Lite or buy a used older bolt rifle like a pre-Freedom Group 700?

It'll be for deer/targets and it's going to be cut to 16" and threaded regardless. Also, if it doesn't have the capacity to accept external mags that's going to happen. I want .308 but I wouldn't pass up other calibers if the ammo is cheap.

This would be a question that deserves it's own thread.

I just bought a mauser, and the bore seems to have some kind of motor oil in it. It's definitely not cosmoline since it's too runny and not like a solid wax. Would I be able to clean it out with a boresnake and some Hoppe's and/or boiling water?

>Is nitrogen gas piston based for general purpose?
Nitrogen gas piston is better than spring in every single possible way but a small initial fee. Lasts longer, more consistent groupings, more consistent strength to arm, etc.

>Is break barrel the only option for nitro piston?
No. The piston is a substitute for the spring, so if a springer is underlever, then that is it.

>Would mounting a IER-LER scope onto the barrel mitigate the accuracy issues common to break barrel rifles?
Dunno man.

What gun should I get?

>>31944619
Spoilers don't work on /k/.

Most compact pistols will work well. Fingerfuck some at your LGS, see what you like. Once you find one that fits your hand nicely, rent it and shoot it.

Depending on your build you could conceal a fullsize.

As of now, a 9mm is typically enough as the bullet technology means it's damned near as good as .45, and a lot more rounds.

I just got my p220 because it was dirt cheap (400 on black friday for a range gun with very few rounds in it)

>>31956769
the small, medium, large is the relative size of the grip for that style. So there's a compact s, m, l, a full size s, m, L, and so on.

The gun won't beat itself to death, if that's what you're asking. It won't be happy, but it won't commit suicide.

>>31957150
so long as you use a carbine buffer and carbine buffer tube. The thing about AR's is the buffer system and gas system don't have to be the same configuration, so long as each individual system is all one configuration.

But that being said carbine buffer will be shit anyway

Get a VLTOR A5 system they're fantastic.

New to funds this may sound like a stupid question but how can I tell if a gun is registered or not??

>>31957312
depends on what you want.

Stainless is the best material for accuracy (better harmonics) has decent durability.

any coated barrel will be somewhat less accurate than an uncoated barrel, due to variances in the thickness of the coating. But durability is greatly improved.

If you want a match gun, use stainless steel w/ .223wylde chamber (most .223wylde barrels are stainless by default), if you want a tough rugged rifle get a nitride barrel with a 5.56 chamber

>>31958871
I played around with that mag at SHOT show. It releases really easily and has good lockup, no firsthand experience with feeding though. But it certainly seemed to have better fit than any tapco products. And the rep at the booth said their testing had good results for reliability, up to you if you believe the company rep or not.

I'd suggest a Ruger American. .223 if you want a generalist rifle that can also take whitetail with the right loads, .308 if you want a solid hunting arm. Best deal on a scope is the Burris 3x9 from Opticsplanet.

Figure this si the best place to ask, but looking for a somewhat slimmer cc in 9mm, hopefully for under $450.

I've looked into the sig p290 ($410), the glock 43 ($449), and the ruger sr9c ($369).

Stainless steel barrels can be melonited/nitrided. Mega Arms sells a bunch of them, the 16 and 18 inch barrels have 1 MOA accuracy guarantee. Melonite/nitride doesn't impact the dimensions of the barrel so they can take a match grade barrel and treat it without impacting accuracy.

Can't go wrong with any of Leupold's offerings. But generally people put scopes on longer-barreled hunting revolvers. Not something more compact like what you've got.

Well I'm wondering if there's any practical game to hunt with .45-70 (or if it could be used in HD) because as much as I love making a watermelon literally explode, the 1892 .357 Magnum goes faster, is lighter, and I don't think I have any game in my area that necessitates .45-70.

>>31961646
yes, the insurance is worth it

What scope is good? The wiki doesn't have anything. I was looking for a smaller fixed zoom scope between at 6x plus or minus 2. I was planning on brandfaggin for pentax but it looks like their scopes are discontinued.

Blued.

Obviously bluing is an anti-corrosion finish that reveals "bad foundation work" (bad choice of steel, inadequate lapping and polish), however these were battle rifles.

I actually was asked by one customer why to go through that much of foundational lapping and polishing before a passivation process.

He was really in the thought that various finishing treatments existed only for covering up of various flaws and dents created by firearms manufacturing process. He really thought so.

I took him to my shop and showed it what it takes. In the end he finished his own Springfield 1911.

Ask the swiss experts.

I have seen some outstandingly beautiful stocks like that.

Not cheap.

how often do you lube an AR? i just got one and havent shot it yet.

>>31961929

>>31961899
First aid, water, snacks

>>31962009
can your recommend a camel and/or first aid kit?

a radio

Bolt guns at the time of fire have about 1/20 compared to semiautos by weight of moving parts while the bullet is still travelling in the barrel towards the muzzle. This is the very difference.

Bolt gun barrel is also a true barrel, not leaking gas in the middle. You may also call a true blowback action barrel the same, however in all semiautos you will have to deal with major mass inertia dynamics of semiauto action.

>>31962038
can your recommend a radio?

trying to decide on an optic for my AR. I've heard some iffy things about eotechs having problems with thermal drift, the internals being damaged by recoil, etc. Is this still a problem with their newer sights? Or should I save up for an aimpoint or trijicon instead?

here's a catgril

I have a GI scarf that was made by some "Institute for the Retarded". I bought it because of the label.

I also bought a surplus poncho liner and, while trying to fold it, realized the stitches were all over the place. in some places, the edging wasn't even sewn onto the sides. I was thinking "who fucking made this piece of shit?" The label was some institute for the blind.

Good stuff.

>>31950897
I think it's a no1 mk3 iirc

Alright, I have an old gun,older than 1944, and it is a Baker Gun Co. Batavia leader double barrel shot gun. The serial number is 13277F, and I was wondering if any one familiar with these types of weapons knew the year that it was produced. Thanks in advance

Isn't this a black powder rated repro revolver?

Black powder rated .44 is usually by default Not rated for much higher .44 Remington Magnum
chamber pressures. Although the cartridge would fit in the chamber.

See this:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIoRFJQ2m90

Is your Walker repro really rated for smokeless .44 Remington Magnum chamber pressures?

i'm trying to turn my mosin into a scout rifle as well.

i dont know what scope and mounts to install on the 91/30.

there are too many mixed reviews thrown around on youtube and elsewhere in the forums.

can someone recommend a few that are tried and true?

>>31958491
Get a Tikka T3. They are outstandingly precise rifles.

.243 will however explode a rabbit. But it is Excellent for buck, roe and deer. I have taken down about 40 something whitetails with my T3 with various scopes. Well worth the investment.

Hello US Army soldiers,

I always here of guys who do 20 years in special operations, but then there's guys who move in and out of special operations then to conventional, to this or that etc. etc.

How can one stay in special operations while others don't? Also officers tend to get moved around a lot, so is going from say a Ranger batt to a conventional unit seen as a step down, even if its for a higher position? Why are officers always moved from say an ODA command position to an executive officer position? Wouldn't it be best to keep them in a tactical role?

pls respnd

>>31962562
Sure.

>>31932827
Why does he have the night aperture up? Nigga needs to flip that shit.

>>31962210

I was refering to using the projectile instead of a lead ball while still using black powder.

>>31962562
Check out "Inside the team room" in Youtube. Read between lines.

It's not unheard of that conventional units sometimes handle unconventional missions. And then again, about a million USD worth of training per guy units are sometimes looking after a literally menial checkpoint.

We are all in the winds of the world sometimes.

Bought an intratec ab-10 today. Any good reason i couldn't just use a die to thread the barrel for a suppressor myself?

>>31962701
Ok.

You see, even here at /k/ when someone refers to "bullets" he infact wants to shoot actual wrong rounds through his gun.

You can use the projectile of course. What you need to confirm from your repro maker is that what is the recommended outer/inner rifling diameter for the projectile. If .44 rem mag bullet diameter fits the call, then it's a go.

I would also guess that a legit bullet casting die for your gun is not that expensive nor hard to find.

Thick smoke clouds, m8. Black powder is Cool.

Can anyone measure fal handguard dimensions . Cant find anything online.

What's the deal with running 7.62 cans on 5.56 rifles? Do you just stick the 7.62 can right onto the 5.56 muzzle device? If they're interchangeable like that, what stops you from doing the reverse and blowing up your silencer?

>>31962814
Are you asking for an actual scanned CAM model? Good luck.

At the user level worries, imperial and metric should be interchangeable.

I'm looking for a no frills, no bs pack for bushwhacking around the woods with. I don't care about tactical anything on it as long as it's durable and I'm not paying more for gimmick. Alice pack ok? What others are out there that I won't spend 100+ on?

>>31962775
if the die cuts the threads even a tiny bit off center and you're fucked.

Like baffle strikes constantly-tier fucked

Osprey makes great gear. I routinely use my Stratos 24 innawoods. It is super comfy, holds all the shit I need it to for overnights. The hip straps wont interfere with an OWB holster also.

My bigger pack is an Oakley Icon 2.0, For a frameless pack it is remarkably well-structured. I used it for longer excursions lasting 4 days+

But that was in combination with a molle vest that carried almost all of my gear, the backpack was just food, water, clothes.

>>31963229
If you are carrying up to 10-15 pounds for 10 miles a day, anything not broken goes.

But if you are up to some trekking with real weight and range, you need a real "bergen".

It's not necessarily a money issue, the real investment is in the practice of proper use. Seriously, with a generic cornershop backpack you'll carry this much. With a proper rigid fully adjustable bergen but without practice you'll carry not much more.

With a proper rucksack and proper practice you'll carry 3 to 5 times more and you'll do it comfortably.

I'll say it again. It's not necessarily a money issue to have a good rig. The actual cost is elsewhere.

>>31962940
Nah, im asking for someone to take off their handgaurd and measure it for inside length, width, and location of the retaining pin relative to that

so im thinking of buying a remington model 31 for about 170$. is this good for a first gun?

Are Mossberg rifles good, they seem to have a negative connotation where I come from.

5.56 NATO or 7.62 NATO if you could only have one?

also the correct answer is obviously 7.62 NATO, at least as long as the MG registry is closed
