Bought an Gewehr 98 from Danzig, 1917. Pretty fucking sweet condition, barrel is superb for being 99 years old.

Now, where the fuck do I get a bayonett for it? Do I just buy a K98 one and call it a good day or..?

I want to get a S&W snub but I haven't been able to find any timetables for parts replacement online. I know what to do for my glock but I've never owned a revolver before. What parts are the first to go? Is there anything I need to periodically replace? I plan on shooting it a lot at the range.

Replace the sights with something worthwhile. You don't even need to go all out spending +$100 on some Trijicon HD's. A Dawson fiber optic front and blacked out rear for $80 or a set of black on black Defoor Ameriglos will go for $45.

What happens when you shoot blackpowder in a semi-auto shotgun? And a pump-action?

First gun Cuckifornian. 12 GA pump, .308 bolt action, SKS, Mini 14, or M1A? No hunting, just learning to shoot before I leave this shithole behind me. Ultra low crime area with private security so HD isn't a huge deal to me right now.

LGS has a Ruger Sr9e for $300 out the door. I currently do not own a 9mm pistol (got a .45 and .380 only). Should I get it? Seems like a decent enough price.

Would a BDC reticle calibrated for 5.56 out of 16" barrel match a 16" 5.45 AK?

.223 and 6.5cm aren't comparable. 6.5cm is basically a better .308.

If you never want to shoot anything bigger than what you have listed and no further than 400-600m .223 is fine.

>>32344111
>wolff springs
I've always had good results with them.

>>32344325
Close enough for government work. Expect a maximum difference of 3 inches at any particular point in your arc and you'll probably be fine.

We used 5.56 ACOGs for M240s and made it work somehow, and those are lot more different from 5.56mm than 5.45mm.

I fired my 10/22 for the first time ever yesterday. It had more stoppages than times I got it to fire. Whenever I loaded the magazine, it would fir the first round, but go "Click" on the second. I would extract that round, it would fire the third, and go click again for the fourth. It got to the point where it would go "click" for every round.

Is it the ammo or my rifle? (Yeas I did oil it beforehand and I even took apart the trigger group to oil it afterwards). The ammo I'm working with is "Federal Spitfire .22lr" thats at least 3 years old (my dad said to use up the "old ammo" from the basement before using the ones I just bought).

>>32344454
99% ammo, go buy some cci and try it

>>32344454
>at least 3 years old
Age does affect ammo but so do storage conditions (humidity, temperature variations...).
Maybe it's not a question of ammo. Field strip the rifle and post pics.

>>32344342
100% this. Ammo cheap as hell+ no recoil means you can shoot all day everyday if you want.

>>32344454

>>32343136
Lots and lots of fouling, possibly you won't extract properly in a semi auto. Otherwise it's fine.

>>32344454
Check the unfired cartridges to see if the firing pin made a dent near the rim of the cartridge. If they were dented, it's the ammo. If there's no dent, it's the rifle.

Looking to put an optic on my PTR91 sc, any suggestions for the type of optic and brand? I have a wide fore grip and bipod on it already.

>"and stop shooting guns without muzzle devices in the dark, Anon, it's bad for your vision."

Explain.

>>32344754
Muzzle devices, as a rule of thumb, guide gasses away from sight-line (IDK what's the proper term in English). Basically gases don't flash in the area where your vision is concentrated.

>>32342148
30-06 for targets honestly, but if you're shooting at rabbits and birds even .223 is probably overkill if you plan on eating them

>>32344294
Yes. It's a steal at that price. It's slightly cheaper in materials than the base 9 but the trigger and slide safety are improved. It's a dramatically better pistol than the typical $300 market and most of the nitpicks can be fixed with a screwdriver.

>>32344778
That's only a temporary issue. It will play havoc on your short term night vision, but I've never seen it described as bad for the eyes overall.

It's the same as turning on a super bright flashlight in the dark and turning it off again.

>>32344587
How long do you think a Vepr12 would be able to run for, if at all, on blackpowder?

>>32344754
Suddenly having a jet of fire light up your vision in the dark kills your night vision for 30 minutes. The CAR-15 is a good example of why that's bad. It won't actively "hurt" your vision but it won't be pleasant.

>>32344787

What's what I wanted to know. Thanks, mate.

>>32344787
>It's the same as turning on a super bright flashlight in the dark and turning it off again.
Yes. And when firing repeatedly, fucks with you like you're getting strobe-raped in the eyeballs.

It shouldn't perma-damage vision just like watching TV in the dark won't. Just increases strain and makes your eyes get tired earlier.

>>32344816
Yeah, it's a temporary issue, so nothing wrong with a bit of shooting in the dark. Ease off the autism and let anon shoot when he wants.

>>32344800
That's what*

I'm from the socialist republic of Dutchlandistan, I'm going on a trip to the US next summer and I'd like to shoot a gun (or two, or 50)

Is it possible for a tourist to go to a range and rent-a-gun? If so, what state would be my best option. Our plans so far are to go from Colorado to Wyoming (yellowstone), then down southwest towards Vegas and lose all our fucking money.

Money isn't that big of an issue, but I'd rather shoot a lot for the same amount than shoot a little.

>>32345484
Yes anon but for 9mm you need a different extractor and ejector as well for it to run well

It sounds good in theory but I don't know how practical it is to buy 3 ammo types and by the time you buy 2 barrels, mags, ejector, and extractor you're over half way to the cost of a new Glock

>>32344454
.22lr is susceptible to moisture damage because its not crimped and humidity can get in. that ruins the primer. 3 year old basement ammo is probably the problem assuming you were getting good strikes on the primer

Need advice on buying a first safe, 500-600$ budget and absolute minimum 6 long guns. Mostly care about quality although capacity is always nice as well.

What are some lesser known gems in the used deer gun realm to he had for less than $600?

>>32347823
.243, .222, .22-250. You can find a lot of Yugo mausers chambered in these durr rounds. Neat gun/round combo. Also, look at your states definition of primitive weapons and see if you can use cartridge rounds. I live in LA and use a .444 H&R single shot if I don't feel like breaking out the BP.

>>32347721
That can net you a good 24 gun safe. Stack-On is pretty alright. Just get one that has bolts that go into both sides of the safe. There's no real benefit to getting a dial safe, but boy do they do things to my peepee.

>>32347925
Cool thanks. Anything in .308 come to mind?

>>32347978
Tikka/Ruger if you want new. If you can find a deal online or at a pawnshop, BARs and BLRs are sexy as fuck as well as Remington auto loaders/pumps. Stay away from new production Rem700s though. Bonus points if you find an old one for cheap and turn it into an m40.

What's better than a Glock?

>>32348008
My friend has a Remington 742 in 30-06 he said he would lend/give me. It has a cracked stock at the wrist though. I just need something with more accuracy than the Spanish Mauser I'm hunting with now. A scoped rifle would be nice.

>>32348052
New stocks for those bad boys are $100+. Its Christmas time and people pawn their deer guns for beer money or presents, start looking there first then try gunbroker for every rifle that tickles your fancy. I mean, google searches are free, hop on that shit. Find the rifle that you like and best suits your needs for the price you're willing to pay and buy it.

What's the process of purchasing a firearm online?
Specifically the part where it gets sent to an FFL dealer.

>>32348174
I usually talk to the FFL first and let them know about the gun. It gets shipped to them, they hold it until you come in. You fill out the 4473 and they call it in. If you're not a criminal you pay the transfer fee and walk out with your new gun. One good thing about talking to the FFL first is asking the price of their transfer fee before you ship it to them so you don't end up having to pay $30+

Seriously, is there a handgun better than the Glock?

>>32348174

I can't speak for other websites, but Bud's gunshop has a list of approved FFL's sorted by distance to you. They also list their last reported transfer fee.

You don't need to notify them in advance, just buy the gun, wait for the FFL to call you when it comes in.

I can't speak for all FFL's, but my guy is great and calls me as soon as the gun comes in. Meets during or after business hours as well.

>>32348407

To clarify: the FFL's listed in green require no advance notice. The ones listed in black may require advance notice.

>>32347978
For 600 or less I'd recommend the Ruger American Rifle with the packaged Vortex 3-9x

Lightweight, good trigger, and great glass for deer hunting. Plenty of YouTube videos showing it shooting easy 1 MOA groups. The only downside is that it has a light barrel to save weight, so your accuracy might suffer if you start putting a bunch of rounds through it fast at the range. For hunting it's a great package tho.

>>32348468
The Savage Axis is also at the same price point with a packaged Nikon scope. Heavier barrel profile for sustained shooting and a traditional 4 round internal magazine (Ruger American uses a rotary 4-round. It works perfectly fine but it's unorthodox)

looking for a pump-action shotgun with an 18.5 inch, unrifled barrel with no choke that has notch or 3-dot rifle style sights. No ghost rings or beads: Does such a thing exist?

Do any of you have a screencap of the thread with the fag crossdressing with the shimpan panties and ARs?

Hey /k/, I need some help here:

Long story short, I got a Yugo Mauser. It fires great and performs fine, but there's something wrong with the front band.The rear portion of it slides on perfectly with a bit of wiggle room, but the front portion (circled in red in the picture) absolutely refuses to budge. It's way too tight, and you basically need to force it on. And even if you force it, it doesn't go all the way on resulting in the button not clicking into the hole on the band and it jiggling off after firing the gun.

How the heck do I fix this? Do I need to shave the metal down somehow on the inside of the band where it's too tight?

>>32349483

Heat that fucker up and press it on real good.

Wipe it down with a gun oil wipe after you shoot it. Just start aggressively rubbing it with said wipe each time you take it out and it'll start to fade away.

>>32344570
I've shot one before. cool piece that is fucking terrible to shoot.

>>32351153
You fix it with a rag and a lot of CLP.

You keep it from happening by not putting it away dirty or handling it without wiping it down.

If you are going to be storing it for more than a week between shooting/handling, either humidity-control wherever it's at (inb4 under your bed) or using a long-lasting corrosion inhibitor on the metal like Barricade or some other silicon-containing oil.

It's my bedside gun ATM. Any product recommendations?

How does /k/ feel about buying used hand guns? I've been browsing Slickguns and armlist for a bit right now and see some good deals but with no transfer of warranty or full knowledge if they didn't fuck up gun smithing I've been hesitant. Also how much would you knock off a good conditioned handgun that doesn't come with a warranty?

>>32351472
Know what you're getting into. If it's old milsurp, some idiot conscript was rough with it and put plenty of rounds through it. If its a police trade in some idiot deputy was rough with and put plenty of rounds through it. Thats why you look over all the pictures carefully and inspect every part of the gun carefully. A worn spring or random moving part is nothing, they're supposed to be replaced with use. A cracked or bent frame is a serious issue.

>>32351472
I've always had good luck with secondhand guns. I inspect for clean riflings and general signs of wear at the meetup. I detail strip and clean them before a range trip. If I'm paranoid, I'll take it to a gunsmith to have him put some go/no go gauges in to check headspace. If it's going to be a carry gun I put at least 250 rounds through it before it ends up in my pocket.

So I want to get some sort of a pistol for self defense, what would /k/ recommend that isn't super expensive?
I'll probably keep it in my glove box, but at the same time I might as well concealed carry since im 19 and I live in missouri (since apparently I can do that no permit required)
Also are there any problems storing a gun in my glove box? Missouri gets pretty cold during winter (and ill be leaving my car outside for hours at night) so how bad would that be?

Hey friendo. You need to lurk more. That's an invitation, not a taunt.

If you buy a gun from a private seller, you don't need anything.

If you buy one from a store they'll do a background check.

Do they even make receivers/barrels with rifle ramps anymore? Are there any downsides to m4 ramps?

looking at a usp compact 45 on buds gun shop, and i saw instead of manual/decocker safety, it says patented lockout safety, does it still come with a regular manual/decocker safety?

>>32355787
>patented lockout safety

This is HK's version of the Hillary hole, i'm pretty sure. Never use it, as it can cause damage to the gun.

If the gun is a variant 1 (V1) then it has a regular manual decocker/safety, yes.

>>32355900
yeah i never planned on using it, i just wanted to make sure it was still manual safety/decocker

Yeah if it's a V1, then that's what you're getting.

Go for the 223 in a 1/7 barrel. You wont be doing any long range killing because you're a noob so you can save the money and shoot the 223 way more and get tour skills up. The 69+ grains will get you to 600-800yd on paper and they'll kill anything in the lower US up to about 300yd.

so:

1. stop being a numale
2. show me a photo of your exact grip position thing. Maybe you're holding it against your eye socket but you don't realize it, who knows
3. Are you sure you're not shooting large slugs or the like?

223 is not really ideal for feral pigs, but will handle the other small game you described just fine

6.5 is overkill for rabbits and birds if you intend to eat

why arent you getting a semi auto .22 rifle?

Ok I doubt this anon will see it, but anyone feel free to chime in.

I want to get a Howa 1500 in .223.
There is a "mini-action" version, which is more purpose built for .223.
However, it may be up to $300 more than just buying the regular 1500 chambered in .223.
Should I just get the normal 1500?

>>32362267
i would think so, the purpose built mini action probably saves on weight and offers not much else in benefit, but i dont know

>>32362275
Alternatively, I could get the "ultra light" version for $500 (20" light barrel I suppose). This is lighter than the "sporter" barrel.
I hear overheating may be an issue

>>32362283
whats your intended use? if you are trying to hit tiny groups from a rest on a bench for competition, sure

>>32362311
Mainly bench shooting yeah.
Just for fun, no competitive use.
I wouldn't mind hunting with it too should the opportunity arise.

I could just get 308 or 6.5x55 in the full sized 1500

>>32362311
Sorry let me just follow up.
Why is a varmint barrel heavy, and why is a sport barrel light?
Wouldn't it make more sense to have a heavy barrel for target shooting (lots of shooting) compared to hunting (where you may only fire once)

>>32362332
because sport barrels are meant to be carried around while hiking during the hunt, and varmint barrels are meant to be used sitting in place on a table popping off gophers in a target rich environment.

if you are going to be shooting repeatedly without much time between shots, the heavier barrel is better becasue as the barrel heats up, the steel becomes more flexible and your groups tend to get larger, so even if you had a tiny little rodent in your crosshairs you might miss by an inch if you were using a light barrel and had just shot 10 of his buddies in quick succession

>>32362447
So how quick are we talking for the barrel to heat up?
I'm thinking 6 rounds per minute max for aimed, effective shots at a range.
Would a regular thickness barrel be appropriate for that, or would a varmint barrel be better?

Also I just checked:
Howa 1500 .223 is 6.9" bolt
How 1500 .223 mini action is 6" and "12% lighter"

Should I just get whatever is cheapest between the Howa 1500 and the Howa 1500 mini?

Thanks so much for the (you)'s btw

Poorfag here
Looking to buy an ar or ak for a while
Seeing as trump just got elected should I skip the winter sale opportunities for this year and wait another year
Or should I wait longer to see if we can get those trade bans lifted from Russia

>>32362459
even once your gun heats up and the groups open up, you still have a consistency. its just a larger spread. so as long as you arent shooting past the limit of your gun youll be fine. if your targets are large or close enough it doesnt matter if your groups open from 1" to 4"

theres always a compromise, so figure out your intended use and pick according to that and you will be happy. weight vs heat etc. also keep in mind light barrels heat up but also cool down faster. learn your gun, you can feel the barrel heat with your hands and correlate that with your groupings at the range. so when you are in the field you will know what to expect and when you can start shooting again.

6 rounds a minute isnt bad at all and your barrel wont heat up too much, but how many minutes are you talking about? 5 minutes (30 shots) and your barrel is going to start getting hot, 1 minute with 6 shots, your barrel will just be warming up

i would just get whatever is cheapest, but there is a lot to be said for light weight. try holding them both at the store and see which feels better. lighter is always better when you are carrying it around. if you dont foresee walking around for hours or miles with it, or shooting offhand standing for long periods of time, then maybe its really not that important

>>32362493
Also I should mention why I won't get a mission

I want a worth while gun that's going to be fun for a long time, I don't have allot of money to splash around and I don't wasn't to spend it on anything less than exactly what I want

>>32362502
>lighter is always better when you are carrying it around. if you dont foresee walking around for hours or miles with it, or shooting offhand standing for long periods of time, then maybe its really not that important

I hear this a lot. I carried service rifles and machine guns with personal webbing and armor all when I was in the army. I personally don't think I'd have an issue hauling a heavier barrel, especially given that I could use a sling (unlike in a tactical environment).
The only issue I could see is accuracy in standing or kneeling firing.

I'll have a look at the gun store next week when I apply for my license (just how it work here in Australia), in which case I can get a permit to acquire it on the day if I like it.

Thanks for the advice man! Really appreciate it. I'm new to firearms aside from service weaponry (which obviously taught me very little outside the scope of standard military use)

>>32362522
true its not that you CANT carry a heavier rifle, what i was trying to convey is the fact that it is just sooo nice when your rifle is light as fuck. you really notice and appreciate it.

do you plan to mostly target shoot or also hunt? and hunt what? some other rifle brands to take a look at in similar quality and price range: savage 10, savage 12, savage axis, remington 700, ruger m77, ruger american rifle. all great rifles. howa makes good stuff

>>32362560
It'd probably be 95% target shooting. I have nowhere to hunt here (it must be on privately owned property as far as I know, with permission from the land owner).

Remington 700 is expensive as fuck here, so are Ruger M77's. Ruger American looks alright, but the Howa is a bit cheaper. Savage Axis is affordable. If it's worth anything, I like the appearance of Howa better

What are some decent/cheap double barrel brands?

>>32362595
if mostly target shooting, get the heavier varmint barrel

>>32362605
And as far as that mini-action 1500 vs normal 1500?
Mini action being 0.9" shorter and 12% lighter, and likely $300 extra compared to the regular 1500's package.
Just go the normal 1500?

>>32362620
yeah i dont think its worth the extra money for a 12% lighter rifle for your purposes

theoretically a shorter action could give you quicker bolt throws but that is really splitting hairs. i dont think thats worth the extra $300 especially with your intended use.
what options do you have down there? do the shops have any different barrel lengths?

dont forget ammo weight and quality will play a large role in accuracy as well. try different weights and types of ammo and have realistic expectations. you arent going to cloverleaf groups with steel case russian ammo

>>32362668
It's just the one store that's semi close which is by far the cheapest. There's a HBar 20" 1500 for $600, and ultra light 20" 1500 mini-action for $500, and I could buy a HBar barreled action in the mini-action for $720 (then $100 for a stock and $80 for a rail).

1500 just seems like the best choice. I don't think bolt speed is going to matter too much. It'll be my first rifle anyway, so I'll be shit to start with no matter what.

>>32362679
i think out of those options youll like the HBar 20" for $600 the most for your intended use. it will be the most accurate over extended shooting sessions and its not like it cant crossover if you ever do get into hunting. plus it will have a tiny bit more of that ever important "tactical snipery" look

>>32362700
I think that's the best option tbqh

And yes, I like synthetic furnishings a lot more than timber haha.

Thanks dude

>>32362700
Ok so I can get a mini action 20" sporter (normal I assume?) barrel with the exact scope I wanted for $760 from a private seller. Has only had 40 rounds through it

Is there any reason i shouldnt get a seecamp for cc? I hate extra weight and really anything in my pockets, and if .32acp was good enough to start WWI its good enough for me

Private Sales in North Carolina. North Carolina law prohibits the sale or transfer of a handgun to a person who has not obtained a permit to purchase a handgun or a concealed handgun permit. ... See the North Carolina Licensing of Gun Purchasers or Owners section for more information.

I feel like buying a 3rd gen S&W semi to appease my inner /tv/, and I don't own a .45 yet. How does a 4506 stack up to some cheap 1911?
Alternatively, is $450 a good price for a decent condition 5906 or 4006 and some mags?

$450 is a good price. Those guns are very well made, a 4506 is higher quality than a cheap 1911 for sure

>>32365896
1937 izvhesk made 91/30. looks like a typical postwar refurb in nice condition. nice prewar stock. good bore and matching numbers. nothing too special, whatever the going rate of mosins is today is what you could get. maybe like $250?

Anon, I've had this problem too. Exhaustive Google searching only brings up occasional sources. Check classifieds in your area, I found some on Craigslist. I *think* you can reload .303 into krag. Do your research.

Keep your brass.

I paid $70 for 3 boxes in May, but it took about 6 hours of online searching.

>>32367019
There is a guy who posts in the buy, sell, trade thread selling a fn Hi Power. He is asking $650 which he assure everyone is a fair price.

New to scopes. Can someone tell me if I get a scope for my AR will it work on my Marlin lever action as well? The Marlin has already been tapped for a scope.

>>32366593
usually the carbines go for more money, i see carbines go for somewhere around $300-$350. 91/30s around $250. My local shop has them for $189.99 right now, so your location matters...

yours is in the prewar stock with screwed in sling swivels, which is nice. ask $350 and see what happens, maybe youll get haggled down to like $275 or something.

the tula made ones tend to go for more than the more common izhvesk ones, which yours is. i think with all of the factors combined i would put a price of $350 on it and wait to see who bites, or if looking for a quick sale just ask $200.

i got mine for $60 back in 2005 so maybe i have an artificially low valuation of them in my head, but personally i wouldnt buy your rifle for more than $200. but i think other newer collectors dont remember those days and have no problem paying more than that

>>32367399
thats not a bad price, depending on condition. i think aim surplus had israeli trade ins for like $400, but the finish on them was pretty beat. FN belgium made ones are probably going for $800-$1000 and up in most places for one in like new condition

>>32367181
You can run 303 through a 30-40 sizing die. I've made plenty that way. Your brass will be short though, so you'll have to adjust your seating die. I'll see if I can find some I have made up and post picture compared to 303 and 30-40 together

>>32367869
Yes, but you will need to buy two separate mounting systems. Traditional scope rings that will mount to your Marlin, and a mount that will connect to the rail on top of your AR.

You can remove laminate you know. Also, if you have spent more than an hour seriously searching and haven't found anything then it probably doesn't exist. Get your carpenter friend and grab a saw if that's the case.

>>32368778
>remove laminate
You do know what solid wood is...right?

>>32368802
Yes, if you're really dedicated to not having a glossy laminate finish you can buy a finish that is laminated and remove it. Will it be good for it? No, but you wish will be had.

The rim on the 303 british is thicker than the 30-40, so the neck appears slightly higher, but that's because they're leveled at the bottom of the case. It's nice to be able to convert them in a pinch, but I wouldn't say they're the great. Passable at best. Just get some brass made if you really want to load for 30-40.

>>32368824
Whoops, it's been a long day. Replace finish with stock.

Need /k/'s advice on a possible purchase. SD9VE at $250 with Apex spring kit installed and metal recoil rod. Does warranty's pass over to the new owner? and if not should I insist on reducing the price even more?

Fuck video games.

I know .22lr is everyone's favorite controversial bugout/survival rifle ammo--cheap and you can carry a shit ton of it, good for anything up to deer (maybe), but you need a really good shot to take deer and anything large, and it's pretty terrible at self-defense.

Why don't more people talk about using .223 instead--but in a lightweight survival gun rather than a heavy AR? It's cheap and plentiful, lightweight enough to carry a lot, but actually viable for self-defense and a little more realistic to use on deer and such.

>>32370463
Not nearly as "cheap and plentiful" as good 'ol .22

>>32371106
Well, I know that. But I'm thinking that it might be worth the tradeoff in self-defense. If you have to bug out for whatever reason, and all you bring is a .22, you're pretty fucked if you have to fend off robbers or looters. Also, I know .22 technically can take deer, but it's really not good at it, you need a perfect brain or heart shot. .223 makes it a little more realistic.

Does anyone know of a good cheap, small, lightweight bolt action .223? Any time you try to search for .223, all anyone wants to talk about is fucking ARs

>>32370443
>I don't understand game balance.

A game where every gun can kill in one shot (also known as real life) would be stupid tho.

>>32371285
Remington 700VTR, Model 7, T/C Contender in .223 with the rifle frame maybe? Not bolt action but eh.

>>32371244
Looks like 20mm oerlikon

>>32371365

Going out to look for a Savage 24 over/under today. Prefer 20ga but will consider any model. Holy grail would be .357/20ga.

Anybody have a 24? How much should I pay for the average example (.22/410)?

>>32372109
I don't specifically not want semi auto, it's just that my priority is weight. I assume a bolt action will usually be lighter weight. Also, the durability is nice for shtf

Local Pawn has a 1975 Glenfield 30-30. JM stamped barrel. Excellent overall condition. I finger fucked it a little. Lever action smoother than a new 336 I also looked at. Guy asked $320 which seemed high. Fucker would not budge on price so I passed. Did I fuck up /k/? I dont really need a lever action gun, but I want a lever action gun.

How bulky are you? Fat guys can hide stuff easier.

Then go out and try to conceal it. I don't think you need a permit for CC in Arizona anyway right?

Would using a DA/SA handgun in SA (As in, cocking the hammer) and then putting it in a holster be the same as using a striker fired handgun?

got a NIB G30S for $475. did i do alright or could i have done better? i don't buy these things

>>32376188
In what way? It's gonna go bang with a shorter trigger pull the first time?

>>32376307
Well yeah. Isn't that the big deal with Striker-fired pistols? No safety and no long trigger pull so when you pull the trigger it goes bang with no extra thought process needed?

Would that not be the same thing as a Decocker pistol with no thumb safety?

Would trying to CC an FNX-45 Tactical be completely retarded?

>>32376368
The DA/SA gun might have a lighter trigger, and the nature of the trigger pull (being a release of the sear, rather than a slight cocking and then release like a striker gun has) may be different as well.

The travel of the trigger may also be shorter with the DA/SA, as well as the resistance felt during uptake.

All of these thing could make the gun easier/harder to ND than a striker fired weapon.

Is a Glock 19L a good competition gun for 3-gun or should I get something else? As far as I can see, Glock has the most customizability.

What is an 80% Ghost frame?

>>32377193
A meme libtard term for an 80% lower without a serial number.

>>32377241
So, what, is it just not registered if I put the rest of it together?

>>32377291
You have a legal obligation to register in some states, like Cuckifornia, and that would involve adding your own serial number. In most states, no change. Most firearms are unregistered.

>>32377327
Well what does the serial number even do?

>>32377291

You need to mill it in very precise points as well.

A purchased 100% lower requires a serial number and FFL etc.

Would having a scope mount on a handgun that was free-floating from the slide provide any kind of advantage over a red dot that was mounted directly on the slide?

>>32377339
If registered, provides a means of identification. They have gun with serial 12345678 registered to Cucks McDix. They go to take his guns away and he doesn't cough up rifle 12345678... uhoh. Search his yard and look for recent boating accident reports. Otherwise, nothing.

>>32377419
Can't they just do that if you buy the rifle at an FFL anyways?

if you had a small harem of twinks, how would you arm them in the case of shtf? 9mm sub guns?

>>32377437
Yes, and they do. FFLs are required to keep such records for 5 years, and in police states like California they report all transfers to a registry. All ATF items need a serial number for their registry as well, so if you wanted to register a lower without a serial as a SBR you'd need to give it one.

>>32377457
Backpacks to carry supplies. Any combat engagement will be done by myself at well over 600 yards.
