Hey guys.

I want to know if I can legally own a gun without having a background check done on me beforehand.

Basically I am moving into a sketchy area and want something for home defense. I was thinking either a shotgun or a pistol, nothing fancy. Just something I could use for home defense, and to take down to the local gun range sometimes. That's about it.

I live in Florida, and I've been Baker Acted before (72 hour hold). This is why I am asking. I don't want to go through the work to go buy a gun, have them run a background check and go, "Oh - you were held against your own will for a few days, sorry, no gun for you." I would feel really awkward about the whole thing, and I REALLY DON'T want it to look like, "the mentally ill person tried to buy a gun, what's he planning?"

I'm planning keeping it next to my bed in case someone tries to kick in the door while I am sleeping and rob me of my shit. That's what I am planning. I just don't want it turn into this a whole big thing, and I am really worried it will.

anyone who spends that much for a eugene stoner pos deserves what xe gets

I want a cheap novelty shotgun that I may or may not attempt to break clays with. Should I get:

>A Stoeger O/U
>A Charter Arms 1887 clone
>A different cheap O/U
>A cheap single barrel because fuck it might as well while I'm poorfagging it up already.

Can some smart anon tell me if there are any downsides/advantages to having carbon fiber handguards?

Im only asking because i dont fancy keymod but i love my sig mcx. Lancer weapon systems is the only one that came out with an aftermarket mlok handguard for the mcx (that is avaliable as of now) its carbon fiber and is around 300 bucks so i would like to know if im about to spend money on a gimmick

FDLE doesn't show the FFL what you did, you'll get an non approval and a form to fill out, appeal it, do whatever the FDLE wants you to do to get your rights restored will probably be a psych Eval that says you're good to go. If you buy a gun privately and use it and you're not supposed to have it you will be tried for possession of a fire arm by an unauthorized person but not the shooting, so you can do things the right way and not get buttfucked because you're too anxious of others opinions.

I'm running a carbon fiber keymod foreend on my MPX from Lancer. It's honestly pretty nice, super light obviously. Only thing I've noticed is the rails like to slip a bit after a lot of shooting. I put some red threadlocker on the screws and it's been fine ever since.

Why in the unholy fuck are these things so popular? went and browsed around a few local gun shops (really, one was a supermarket with a baller sporting goods section, and the other was mainly an AG supply/outdoorsy store) and both places had a decent selection and then in there own little section were about 20 different configurations of the Springfield XD series. is it just a wildly popular gun in the midwest or something? hell, I hardly saw any Glocks in both stores.

Looking at getting my first rifle that isn't a 22. Really interested in the Ruger gunsite scout in .308 but can't decide on what model to get? 18in barrel laminate stock? 16in barrel Wood stock? Will there be significant differences in the way they perform/feel? Still pretty new to serious rifle shooting. Also any other recommendations or advice are welcome. Thanks in advance.

Assuming I only have these 2, which round is better suited for self/home defense

.223 fmj 55 grs 995 m/s 1782 J
.223 fmj 63 grs 905 m/s 1691 J

Lighter round with higher muzzle velocity has more energy than a slightly slower heavier bullet?

>>33862589
The difference is so inconsequential. What is it going on? Range toy or dicking around in the woods? If go with fov for woods toy

>>33866435
I have the 16.5 in Wood and I love it. It's a utility gun for sure, which is why I opted for the 16.5. Wood stock is more durable too, and the 16.5 will be easier to carry around in thick scrub. .308 is an all around do a bit of everything cartridge which is why I went for the utility/bang it around in the woods route.

Do have a Burris about scope with qd mount on it, keep the irons for Max reliability

No. Most have a water repellent coating, but they are made of some fuckin canvas shit. Keep in mind that if you are in long heavy rain, everything is eventually going to make you wet. Keep in mind the peculiarities of rain in your area. In mine, drizzle for days on end during about half the year.

>>33870016
Automatic pistol. Or just pistol.

>>33870520
See, the problem is that "automatic pistol" also covers fully automatic stuff, some of which borders on submachine guns, and most people interpret pistol to include revolvers and stuff like that.

I have a question. Well imagine we are sniping at long range, lets say 800mts with a 308, i clicked 2MOA for windage, 14MOA for elevation and we are good to go. The question is MOA IN CORRALATION TO FUCKING WHAT?. I mean, i could have been playing with the scope or something and that would fuck up my point of aiming for a huge distance.
Is it a reference point that is paralell to the bore?

>>33873020
Target shooting with 22lr? Just go full and buy a race gun. Also fangfolio combat 9mm is a peace of work.
If you want a 22 for plinking just get a bull barrrl rifle

>>33870844
that gun is a pl-14

>>33872681
Kmon, answer me

>>33873412
moa is just a measurement of angle, which roughly corresponds to 1" per 100 yds.
Not really sure what you're asking, but for example if you clicked your turrets 2 moa left and 14 moa up, at 800 yds that ~ 16"/moa left and 112"/moa up

>>33862633
>Carbon fiber
Gimmick.

I mean, if you like MLOK, thats great, but Carbon fiber can break pretty badly when dropped, even though I'm sure LANCER is using good resin to bind everything.

But incorporate heat, the sun, moisture, impact, wear and any solvents you might use, and you get why it's not a fantastic idea.

>>33867941
Because the .380s can't be imported for civilian sales. They don't get enough good boy points from the ATF because they're in .380.

My understanding is that firearms imported for law enforcement use generally don't have to follow 922r or *most* other import restrictions. This is why you'll find things like 100% Italian Benelli M4s with the original stock/pistol grip and 7 round tubes being sold by cops, but the ones sold straight to civvies from gun stores have the fixed stock and 5 round tube mag.

>>33862633
>>33862649
mainly just for weight and aesthetic for pros. carbon fiber won't be as durable as metal, but the solution to that is to not use your handguard as a blunt-force weapon

Anyone know where i can find some solid and good info (that shows the good, bad and ugly) of a Weatherby Vanguard rifle? I checked YT, and the only things there are Weatherby dick sucks or "Why buy weatherby when you can spend 12x more on a Christianson?".

>>33874044
good luck finding product reviews that are not dick-service or shilling for another product.

for what it's worth, i have a weatherby vanguard in .243 and I have no complaints. it's a solid rifle for what you pay for it

>>33874078
I'm wanting to get into longer range shooting and big game. The Vanguard in .300WM seems to fit that bill pretty well, and stays within budget (plus glads of course).

>>33874147
> Plus glass. Stupid typos.

>>33874147
that would be a good option to pursue

Regarding legal issues in the United States:

Is carrying a gun within a gun case considered open carry, concealed carry, or neither?
Does it matter if the case is locked, or if the gun is loaded?
What about carrying a gun in a backpack?

If I am in a state that requires a permit for both concealed carry and open carry, and I do not have a permit, can I still carry a gun within a case or pack?

>>33874187
Yeah, I looked into the difference in .300WM and .300Weatherby Mag. Not enough difference for the price hike I feel. Plus, 300WM is easier to find in my town than Weatherby ammo.

Should I ever be worried about "shooting out a barrel" of a gun? I have some older/hard to find guns and my autism makes me worried about ruining the barrels, is it really an issue?

On the same note, are Faxon AR barrels good or not? Not really looking for Gucci, just good price/performance ratio

>>33874271
Faxxon is good to go. I have their 18" GUNNER and love it.

inherited an older Remington 700 from my late grandfather that i never got to meet. Its chambered in 25-06. I decided to take a box of old ammo left in the gun cabinet and noticed that it was full of 25-06 cartridges, but had two, .243 Winchester cartridges in the box also. The .243 from the looks of if seems to be an overall a shorter version of the 25-06. I am curious could it be fired out of a 25-06 rifle like a .38 special is also shot from a .357 mag revolver? I'm not retarded wont fire a round that a gun doesn't specifically call for. Just curious if it was possible and maybe explained why he had those rounds lying around.why have 2 other bullets if he did not have the proper gun for them? He died long before i could meet him so i wont get ever have the chance to ask.

>>33862433
No, you obviously inherited money or were given it by your parents while he is rich because he worked for it and didn't have mommy and daddy give it to him so he knows how to spend it wisely.

Bumperino for wearing out barrels. Is it a concern?

can someone seed the do/k/ument its stuck on 96%

Neither.
Build an ar10.
Make one with the Gibbs side charger or a different non reciprocating if it has the dust cover and bras deflector
Find a quick change barrel system
Get a premium barrel
On ar10 you can have almost any caliber you wish, not so with scar

>>33874271
shooting out a barrel is just something that will happen eventually to every barrel. it's like your brakes, it gets worn with use and will need to be replaced someday
that being said, most people dont ever shoot enough to rebarrel any of their guns
if you've got some heirloom peices that are in otherwise good shape, i wouldnt worry about taking them plinking every now and then

>>33866511
Assuming that those are M193 and M855, respectively, use the 55gr shit.
It performs more consistently against unarmored targets and has less recoil.
That said, you really ought to get yourself some good 5.56, like Hornady 75gr TAP or Federal 62gr TBBC.

>>33866587

He probably owned a .243 rifle at one point, sold it, and then found that he had two stray bullets left over and no gun to shoot them out of, and stuck them in that box so that they wouldn't be taking up a whole box's worth of space by themselves or just be rolling around loose.

>>33862433
Because you can build the rifle to your specific preferences better than a factory rifle. And even if you have money, saving some of it to spend on optics, ammo, mags, or other gear is always better than blowing $3K on a Fifty Shades of FDE 70% polymer 30% aluminum rifle like the SCAR.

>>33862490
Stoeger or 1887 clone. Just for god's sake don't buy a Tristar.

>>33863750
Pistol or rifle calibers?

Pistol would either be 9mm or 10mm. 9 is easy to suppress, is cheap and available literally everywhere, less recoil, higher capacity and can carry more if you ever really have to. 10mm because fuck you intruder.

For rifle I'd say 300BLK for suppressor, 7.62x39 because why not, 5.56 because it's easy to find and parts/mags are easy to find as well. If 5.45 was easier to get in the States, I'd recommend it. 6.8SPC is dead, 308, 450BM, 458 SOCOM, and 50 Beowulf are all overkill.

>>33864034
Glocks all have hard slide racks because of the shitty gimping/serrations. CZ 75 variant in 9 (except SP-01) would probably be easier due to grip angle and slide serrations. Maybe Sig 320 9m or S&W M&P9

>>33864168
Cough up $200 for a Lee Casting Pot and Lee Classic Turret, plus whatever other shit. Reloading will allow you to shoot whatever caliber you want cheaper than $0.26 per and you won't have to fuck your gun over with corrosive. It's worth the initial investment, and worth your time.

>>33875624

>>33874899

>also round count

>>33875651
The 75B and 75 Compact don't. The SP-01 and P-01 do. 226 is great but I figured $1K was out of the price range given the OP was talking about Glawks. 320 is probably just right.

>>33866511
>Lighter round with higher muzzle velocity has more energy than a slightly slower heavier bullet?
F=MA2

Of course there's more to terminal effectiveness than just force but that's not too relevant.

Also there are a lot of other things to consider when choosing ammo for an AR but none of them really applicable for the distances you'd expect inside your house.

>>33875667

>>33875673
I haven't attempted that yet, and I figured most people would be more comfortable with buying new. Even then used 226s are more expensive than used Glocknades.

I'm a complete retard when it comes to auctions (and most other things), so I'm wondering: how?
Are they banking on the idea that people are going to wait until the last minute and then bid it up to a few hundred? Is that how this shit always works? Will I come back to this on 5/10 and see it listed for a few hundred burgers?

>>33875818
people usually bid it up at the last minute with the auction sniper programs and shit. sometimes they get fucked though and the auction ends at like 1 cent. i do ebay for a living and it happened to me a few times when i first started so i quit doing that shit.

another thing they will do is make the price really low at like 1 cent and make the shipping really high and hope people dont look at it. if the auction ends too low they dont have to sell it, they can just cancel it and say the item was lost or stolen or some bullshit as well

>>33875868
Not as common on broker, a last second bid will bounce the end time to 15 minutes and every bid there after will reset the clock.

Forgive my nogunness, i'm from a commie hellhole with an unarmed population.

Does a holster that can mechanically stop the gun from firing while holstered or that can resist a misfire and contain the bullet exist?
I would bet it doesn't, but it does sound like an interesting concept.

>Does a holster that can mechanically stop the gun from firing while holstered
possibly
for example this 1911 holsters strap physically blocks the hammer
>or that can resist a misfire and contain the bullet exist?
no

>>33875897
>contain the bullet
it would be very bulky

>>33875906
>for example this 1911 holsters strap physically blocks the hammer
indeed it does, but a more practical thing for a quicker draw sounds more interesting.

>no
But it would be so good.

>Short answer
I got me both. I'd go with the LVOA if I had to choose only between them two.

>Long Answer
The scar is a damned fine rifle. It's just built right. I love my FAL collection, but anytime I feel like taking one I always end up with a Scar instead. I like it far more than my AR-10 I've bought or built. I'd call it the reigning 308 king of "battle rifles".

So about a year ago I started getting into ar-15s. Bought about 70 lowers and started building all kinds of fun shit. Bought cheap ARs, designer ARs, all them shits I could find. LaRue, CK, WARSPORT, DD, all them shits. I heard "don't buy an expensive ar, build one". I heard "designer ARs are better".

Well, they both have merits. Niggas that say built is best ain't shot a top dollar AR. Unless you have a gunsmith with his own fully functional shop at his disposal (or you yourself do) you aren't going to Frankenstein something together as well as a company doing that with multi-million dollar facility.
That being said, the gunsmith option with the facility is even better. Built custom for your hands specifically beats top shelf designer any day (to be clear I am not talking about slapping parts together on the internet which is also valid). But you didn't ask about my opinion on that. So why choose the Warsport?

Of the catwalk runway ARs it's the workhorse. Buy one from before 2016, before they started getting iffy in quality control. And if you want my advice, buy that middle one in my picture, which is a CL LVOA. It's even better than the baseline model by far.

SUMMARY:
>Love me some scar-h
>Lvoa more must-have
>Lvoa CL is rare as fuck but even bettererer.
>If you've got 10k, have a custom build it's better than Lvoa or home built around.
>AR-10s are cool too, but I'd do that when you're in the mood for that. Scars do the 308 job a bit better.

you can draw fast with that style of holster. the straps connected to a snap that breaks open when you draw. its not as fast as an opentop but decent enough.

>>33873470
Yes sir but the angle is formed in correlation of something. I think either a standarize aiming on dead center at... lets say x distance OR a imaginary flatline of the bore

>>33875956
Answer me please im dyinh

>>33875927
Where can I get this many shekels?

The reference point is your zero.
So if you zeroed at 100m, you'll need to adjust elevation to account for drop and windage to accout for drift.
With 0 adjustment, you should hit your zero under the same firing conditions at which you fired.

thanks goyim. someone has an autobid on it anyway, probably for like $300 or something.

>>33876021
No, its not, when calculating long range shooting you dont care about your zero. You care about only the MOAs that will get you to the target. Therefore there is a zero but you cant choose between obe or another, is a steafy number and cant be moved. Therefore im asking how do i set my zero?

>>33875912
You're a big guy

>>33876034
For long range shooting obviously

>>33876036
For you

>>33876034
just walk closer to the target until the bullet lands where ur crosshair is

>>33876034
You set your zero by shooting at a target at a known range. From there, your scope is properly calibrated to your gun. You know the ballistics of the round, and therefore you know the difference in angle between your zero and the current range. So if you zeroed at a range where the difference between the barrel and LOS was 1 MOA, and you're now shooting at a range where the difference is 2 MOA, You adjust 1 MOA off your zero.

>>33876056
whats moa mean?

>>33862836
theyre dumping them out, have you not heard what they did in illinois?

>>33876068
what did they do

>>33876034
The zero that you set your rifle to is in fact the reference point to changing your elevation. If you zero for 100 yards and your bullet hits your target, and with that same setting your bullet hits, say, 50 inches low at 800 yards.

Well, now you need to dial up 50 inches. 1 MOA is about 1 inch at 100 yards, but MOA is a measure of an angle, hence "one minute of angle". So at 800 yards you're looking at 8 inches of movement for ever MOA adjustment.

50 divided by 8 is six and some change, so dial 6 1/4 MOA up and see where your bullet hits. You may need to use a slight hold under. Congrats, you are ebin sniper.

>>33876062
Minute of angle, it's a measure of an angle equal to one sixtieth of a degree.

>>33876056
Well thank you anon

Has anyone tried the "Slide Fire" stock kits? Considering one for a 10/22.

>>33876291
They're fun for making old toys """"auto"""". I think personally I'd advise you to just go throughwith a stamp and get you a cheap full auto.

Is it safe to say that despite any laws besides the NY Safe Act or whatever I can always have a gun that would normally be outlawed if that gun was owned by my forefathers before the gun became illegal? For example, let's say my father owns a rifle X in 2017. In 2018 rifle X is either on state or federal level made illegal somewhat. In 2019 my whole family dies. I'd get to keep rifle X in most cases right?

Also, is there something like a federal or state level super special card permit or license or whatever that basically lets you buy any and as many guns as you want?

According to Weatherbys site, no matter the caliber, the rifle is the same price. And I'd have to order 300weatherby to shoot it, where 3 stores here carey wm.

What kind of foods you can grow in a sthf innawoods situation? Also, is it possible to do it with very limited tools? (like knife, hatchet, etc)

In the game Metal Gear Solid 5: ground zeroes and phantom pain, the main character big Boss holsters his rifle on his hip like pic related, only in game the bag isn't behind the rifle. It's convenient because he doesn't have to reach behind his back to grab the rifle or have it flop around uncomfortably on just a regular sling, and can raise his rifle faster in case XOF are coming to fuck him.

What kind of holster or sling system does he use to do that? I'm looking for my next ar build and thought this was neat but I'm not hoping this kind of holster system isn't real.

depends on the state- but i know people who have became a criminal over night in the past

I have been chatting with this girl in the Czech Republic about funs and her opinions, what does /k/ think?

>I am not a big fan of bullpups, i do not know why but the just do not do it for me..... but then i am not a big fan of plastic guns either.... glock? thanks you can keep it.

I am not a big fan of scar either.... that rifle looks clumsy.... besides cz 805 is similar and if they ever do the promised modular set then it would be a keeper.

>If i had money to spend i would like to add fn fal, valmet or R4, tavor and posibly the cz 806.
