Are there any any 10mm rifles that are decent and does 10mm benefit from a longer barrel?

There are tons of Model 10s and 64s with 2 inch barrels floating around thanks to police trade-ins. Just 2 months ago, there was a site selling them for $295 shipped.

Guys, is there a revolver in existance that actually allows you to slam it shut ?
What happens if you slam shut a top-break revolver ?
Pic unrelated.

From last thread - Anyone have experience with shotgun inserts? I can get a set of 8 that'll let me shoot all sorts of pistol rounds out of my break action 20ga for 140. Seems pretty cool. Is it worth?

>>32600964
Smith 19 or 66. You can shoot .38s in them if you please

The ban lift is possible but it depends who gets into Trumps ear. Saigas again for sure and maybe more 5.45. Maybe some handguns and other long guns. I wouldn't hold my breath though.

They're pretty damn inaccurate but work perfectly fine and don't reduce barrel life or anything. May get better accuracy since it's a 20g not a 12g but I wouldn't count on it being great.

There's no need to slam it shut though other than being a retard.

And for whatever stupid silly reason you can imagine where you NEED to slam it shut or face death... it can definitely handle the shutting it won't break the first second or third time you slam it shut

Would most likely happen when the owner does it all the time at the range for over a year.

Pair the following rifles with handguns or revolvers; they don't necessarily need to be from the same time, or even the same country, rather more like cheeses to wines.

Got an old (1980s I believe, haven't checked model number) Rossi .38 revolver from a family member, looking to take it on a range pretty soon.
Anything specific I should know before I start firing it? I know it's brazilian manufactured and there have been some different guns from brazil with quality issues, but I don't know how far back that goes or if it includes Rossi.
I'm assuming it wouldn't be a good idea to shoot +p from it either?

Drunk as fuck o bare with me.

anyone else just using guns as a way to compensate for your own perceived failures at manhood and manliness? By manhood I don't mean the liberal stereotype of "hurrrr u hab small penor so u need big gun to make up for it!" but I mean the act of manliness and the attitude of standing up for yourself and saddling up to take on challenges that scare the living fuck out of you but you do it anyway and pretend like you are not the least bit scared. Especially when compared to previous generations.

I for me I love guns because they are fucking cool but I'll admit a part of it is "look at this HUGE SPLOSION right in front of my face I didn't even flinch, at least I'm not a nu-male!"

>>32608563
Is it extracting now?

Okay okay so mil dots...those can't be standard right? Okay I'm going to explain this shitty but bear with me.
Say scope A and B have two different magnification but both have a 4 mil dot (up donw left right) layout.
I have my A scope lined up and know my mil dot means roughly 50 meters difference from my crosshair.
That would be different with scope B right?
I've never hear any type of standard variation in mil dot to center range difference but I'm a Fud shit Lord who hunts with irons and I'm looking to getting into scopes hunting because my vision isn't what it used to be.

>>32608670

Guns are beautiful pieces of art that I like analyzing. I like taking them apart and putting them back together and figuring out how they work and thinking about how engineers worked so hard to create something so beautifully functional.

I also won't pretend I'm physically weak. I'm not very strong, and tools are what made human beings the most powerful species on the planet. A true man is one who does his best to better himself and isn't afraid to use tools to overcome his weaknesses. That said, I'm working hard to make myself stronger, but regardless, if someone wants to hurt me or someone I love, I'm shooting them in the face, because I'm not big or strong enough yet to do much with a punch to the face.

My PPK sometimes drops back to double action after firing, when it should be in single action. This has happened on both mags (one with pinky catch, one without), and with two different types of ammo.

I bought it used, but it's in really good condition. Everything appears to be in good working order.

Seems to happen randomly, not on a specific round, and not necessarily after putting a lot of rounds through it. Has happened in about 1 out of every 20 rounds I've put through it so far.

Any ideas what to check for that might be causing this, and how to go about fixing it? Only thing I can think of is that the ammo isn't cycling the gun completely and the hammer doesn't stay back for SA mode.

It is an Interarms one, not S&W.

Smith and Wesson just came back out with a snubby model 66, which is a stainless 19, which is considered one of the best .357 magnum revolvers of all time. Has that faggot ass lock on the side but other than that (and two-tone, ugh) it's a good buy.

And just for fun, here's a book we found in my great-grandmother's book case, tucked away between some old romance novels that smelled faintly of fish oil.

I think they got up to some zany stuff.

>>32607391
If its the model 68 (I have one), its a pretty solid shooter. Accurate and decently tough. It they were made before Taurus and Rossi went to shit. Either way, dont shoot P+ out of it, but its a cozy little beater gun.

>>32610027
>>32610034
What's in the book?

On the gun, all I can tell you is to be careful about the restore work you have done on it, or that someone tries to talk you into. Judging by the picture, I wouldn't touch the stock at all unless it's split somewhere I can't see.

For the rust, you certainly want to stop it, and remove any you can. Some people may suggest stripping and rebluing the metal. You DO NOT want to do that if it can be avoided. That would be like sanding the patina off the wood and retaining/oiling it. My father made this mistake with the K98 my grandfather brought back.

Consider taking it to someone who specializes in antiques, and not just a gunsmith, for options and quotes.

Is Carhartt (pic related) a good brand if I'm looking for a reliable jacket that doesn't scream tacticool yet allows for some movement, layering and CCW?

>>32610337
Thanks, I'll check the model numbers when I get home today. I about assumed it was just a workhorse gun and little else considering it was bought to be carried by newspaper truck drivers downtown.

Just a shame it can't handle .357s though, would have liked the adaptability

>>32613137
My brother loves Carhartt. He's a mechanic, so he needs durability and agility. It definitely doesn't scream tacticool or 'i have a gun'.

I'm personally looking for some gloves that fit this role. I really just need them for warmth, so I've been looking at driving gloves. I have a pair of rabbit fur lined gloves that are comfy af but I would never be able to shoot with them if the need arose. Just looking for some plain, simple black gloves that are nice enough to wear with business attire but warm and durable enough to actually matter.

I know Kel-Tec's claim to fame is their KSG Shotgun( image related ) but can anybody tell me how their pistols/flashlights are? Their flashlights seem very very attractive given they have a single output setting over 400 lumens( no need to worry about accidentally seizuring somebody with a strobe, etc. ) and one of them comes in a shape made to be easier to use with your pistol. I'm thinking of picking up one of their flashlights as a replacement to my cheap chinklight and am thinking of picking up one of their pistols as my first CC.

>>32613137
>>32613999
I like Carhartt too. Dickies( what I wear ) also makes good work-based clothing that wouldn't throw up any red flags at a lower cost than Carhartt. I also recently noticed Dickies has a "tactical" section on their website and I'd be willing to bet most normies would just assume most of that is normal workwear given Dickies reputation is based on cheap yet quality clothes for the average laborer.

>>32613137
>Is Carhartt (pic related) a good brand if I'm looking for a reliable jacket that doesn't scream tacticool yet allows for some movement, layering and CCW?

We're basically a spoiled generation birthed from another spoiled generation, but there can still be plenty of hard ships and hard work to be done.

I bought a used rifle with a scope. The rifle did not originally come with the scope or a mount. By my calculations, the scope and (I think the mount) are 1.5 degrees out of horizontal alignment with the barrel. I tried shimming it; I can't do it be it the mount or my incompetence. I'd rather not see a gunsmith as that would probably double the cost of the rifle. Any ideas? Thank you.

One of them patted me on the back for getting drunk and finishing a bottle of fireball and said he was "proud of me". My parents and even brother at times can be the same, coddling way that really humiliates me. Shootings guns makes me feel proud. I know how to work them, clean and operate them.

S&W just recently announced they are releasing the Model 66 with a 2.75" barrel again. This is pretty much the only new production option right now, they are sweet though. 6 rounds of .357 magnum in a frame size that isn't ridiculous. L-frames and N-frames are sweet guns but they're kind of a bitch to conceal, the snub K-frame is like the Glock 19 of revolvers, they just hit that sweet spot of size, capacity, power.

I thought one was slightly bigger or longer which meant that a it could only be switched one way?

Guys, are there any common issues with fixed cylinder revolvers ?
I mean, if you can't slam shut the cylinder, it would make sense to me that you can't fuck up the timing or anything.
I was wondering if there were some modern ones, if possible, in .357/.38, any more info on this?

I want to build an AR, but can't buy a lower receiver (except through a private sale, obviously) because I'm 20, and an AR lower can be used to build a pistol. If I have my Dad buy the lower receiver for me, would this be considered a strawman purchase or a gift?

>>32621643
Strawman purchase

Cuckifornian here, how quickly will I get fucked if I just wrap my vepr stock with bandages to block the thumbhole, and then go to a shooting range?

>>32622102
Does that make it illegal then? He's buying it as a late Christmas gift.

>>32623168
As long as you don't give him the money it's fine

>>32623141
The feds are already en route to your house.

how come the .380 glawks are for LEO only?

>>32621643
it's a gift
>>32622102
don't listen to this retard

>old neighbor down the street dies
>family is selling various items from estate
>they sell me a sportorized Mosin for $60
>bore looks practically brand new, overall a nice deal for the price

Should I replace the stock, or is it purely an aesthetic preference?

When getting an NFA firearm, do you have to get all the forms and stamps done before you purchase the gun even if it still needs to be transferred to an FFL holder?

I managed to finally find the one gun I really want on gunbroker that's not for an absurd price and it happens to be the regular select fire model, even harder to find here in the US. But, I only found it when there are just a couple days left on it. Is there no way to buy it so I don't completely miss this rare chance?

>>32624679
depends
show us a pic, but 60$ is a really good deal nowadays

Can a Norinco T54 in 9mm take Zastava M70A mags?

Does anyone have that image of Canadians(?) Testing firearms in extreme Cold weather?

I just got a gun with 3 picatinny rails. What kind of accessories should I get for it? Is there anything other than the usual red dot, laser, flashlight? New to the rail game

>>32625971
I should mention that they're on the sides and top so a stand is out, and foregrips are illegal here anyway so.

I'm looking at getting a full size 9mm CZ of some sort, currently between the P-09 and the SP-01, what do you recommend?

>>32621020
No. They're almost identical in size, but .308 is usually loaded at a higher pressure. This will not affect the chances of explosion in any way shape or form. x51 is NATO spec. 308 is Durr spec.

>>32621059
It's a soft metal. When grinding two bits of metal together, say, a brush and a barrel. You wouldn't want to scratch your gun and remove steel every time you cleaned. So, the brush will yield before your gun will.

woah now im in love..

too bad im fucking europe right now..

watching pic related tho

7.62 or 5.56 for home defense?

Range is probably ~30 feet from doorway and where I would be taking cover. 50-70 feet max.

I don't care about over pen, I just want to make sure the guy in my doorway goes down as fast as possible. I know shot placement and accuracy matters more, but assuming I'm consistent and have enough funds to practice with either round.

Which kills and/or maims faster?

>>32626884
I think the LCRX looks cool as fuck. If they make one in .327 federal magnum, that's when my wallet will part and money will exit.

I need a rifle for long range shooting. I've got a couple shotguns and a .22, what's a good Rifle with a reasonably priced round to start getting into shooting long distance?

>>32626884
It... it... looks almost like some ugly little kit gun that Iver Johnson might have built 100 years ago if he had access to modern materials....

Are RAS 47s a decent starter AK?
I ask since my LGS has a couple for sale.

>>32627363
Savage Hog Hunter .308.

They are sub-MOA with match ammo and in a common caliber.

What is that white cloth thing slung over the french soldier's shoulder?

>>32628078
surrender flag?

>>32628078
Part of his kit, a bedroll perhaps? Usually they'd tuck other shit into it too like a backpack.

>>32627636
No. If you want a decent priced AK get a new WASR 10/63 or Yugo N-pap but make sure you inspect the rifle before buying

>>32628078
A stylish scarf. Even in war the French like to dress fancy

>>32628384
Makes sense. Thanks

>>32627732
What kind of range can you get out of a 308 like that? It looks good to me - great price, reasonable cost for ammunition, solid reviews. Thing is I've quite literally done 0 rifle shooting aside from my brothers AR he has in 9mm.

I think this question was asked in an earlier thread, but i am never around anymore.
Who is Hunter 31? I swear i see that guy 2 or 3 times in every thread.
Is it some new k meme or are we being raided?

Does anyone make a reproduction cartridge firing LeMat revolver or a conversion kit?

>>32629286
This would be kickass. Here's hoping

>>32629066
Direct family transfers are usually exempt, anon. That's how 14 year olds can own deer rifles despite not being able to buy one.

That said, if a 20 year old wants to build an AR that bad he can just buy a complete rifle, sell the upper (and other parts not desired) and go on from there without running afoul with the law.

>>32629066
Cigarettes work that way. It's not all that far fetched.

Can a K31 bolt be fluted, or would that ruin it?

Are the slim car 15 handguards compatible with a triangle handguard cap?

What's the difference between Brown bear, silver bear, and golden bear ammo? Brown bear works well in my rifle and I'm wondering if going to silver or golden would be an upgrade.

I've head some people say 5.56 NATO has better ballistic performance in short ranges (typically under 100 or 200 feet) than 7.62 NATO. I don't see how that's possible, is this some mall ninja lore?

>>32629098
Shut the fuck up kid.

>>32621590
You still have moving parts that can fail, but they are pretty stout. There are plenty of options, though most have some western stylings. Look at Ruger Blackhawks for a good entry point, they are the less-cowboy looking of Ruger's offerings. Adjustable sights, variety of finishes/grips. This is what i'm considering as my next single action.

Convertible to plink with 9mm if you find it cheaper than 38spl, which is dope, and it's only around a hundred more than the standard model.

What's a bolt rifle in .308 with good iron sights?

I don't have tiny hands but I still have trouble reaching the slide or mag release on most handguns, is there any solution for this?

Just got a refurbished-but-real, sniper nugget.

From your experiences, are there any tips or suggestions? Maybe more specifically the care and proper operation of the optic?

Also regarding shims, I'm planning on making some of my own for both the scope mount and for the bedding on the reciever. Should I use sheet-steel or sheet-aluminium? Any thoughts or suggestions?

On a side note, I'm pretty happy that I've finally gotten a real sniper nugget, I've always wanted one since I've gotten into history and subsequently firearms as a kid, but they've always have been too expensive for my poorfag wallet.

>>32632923
Absolutely not.
They're comparable within 100 yards, but 5.56 is never going to be ballistically superior to a 7.62 of equal quality.
More practical in short range, sure.

>>32600964
Hey, /k/ looking to put a model together,
were the VDV known or ever used BMPs in Afghanistan? I know that they have the BMD series of IFVs but I'm mainly trying to figure out which pack of infantry I'll use with the BMP I want to build.
Also other than the lack of amphibious capability, did the BMP-1D have any noticeable distinctions than the other BMP-1 series of vehicles (other than amphibious capability)

>>32633071
I've got one, it's a solid gun. Accurate, smooth, all that jazz. Switching cylinders takes 2 secons and requires no tools which is pretty cool. A tad on the heavy side, and it is single action so heads up if thats not your thing. That said the thing is just super fun to shoot.

I want to put a picatinny rail ontop of my Winchester SXP so I can mount optics on it for slugs. Anyone know of a good rail I can stick on? Its already drilled and tapped for scope bases
