Not shilling BUT I always thought goldbacks were a cool investment and a neat idea. I wouldn't buy their more expensive bills cause at that point you should get something solid imo but their cheaper goldbacks i like since they're built for small transactions and easily portable. They also have really beautiful art. You should look into them if you haven't already

On a Colt you would need to loosen the screw on the arbor wedge, tap the arbor wedge out with a mallet, pop the barrel off, remove the cylinder, put a
New Cylinder on, put the barrel back in, reinsert the barrel wedge, possibly retighten the screw.

Ruger old army.
>Are they suitable for home defence?
if your other option is begging the assailant to use lube, sure. If you can get a proper gun that's better. Unlike cartridges it just isn't a good idea to leave one loaded and capped and ready to go. Don't get me wrong, you can, I guess, but you're operating a far lower level of safety and effectiveness than modern firearms.

I have the 10/22 one, same buttstock hardware. I think you'd have to knock out the pin holding the hinge and butt on to the tube, pull that, cut the tube, re-attach, drill new pin hole, put pin in, and then move the stud the folding butt clips on thats on the wood part of the stock. That may be a bitch as it's set up like a reinforcing lug like the SKS has where it goes clean through the stock with another screw on the left as well. In fact, push that stud back any further and it's going to intersect with the magwell. Ain't gonna happen. Also the thing has a fucking 12.75" LOP why do you want it shorter? A 10/22 carbine has a 13.5" LOP! Just keep it half folded (stock folded, butt deployed) and keep a hand on the butt while walking if tight spaces is the issue.

Not really bother, but had fish and game come by once while in a group out on public land. Dude was pretty polite all things considered and just wanted to be sure we weren’t leaving trash everywhere…. We had two trash bags out already and half of us reload…. Pet peeve when people leave the outdoor spots looking like shit. Wish I knew what the guy was thinking when he walked past the trucks though.. we had 3 tables set up with a pistol lane and rifle lane set up with steel targets on hangers…. Between 6 of us we had something like 30+ guns…. All in all went better than expected. Guy started off with “hey guys just checking in, your all perfectly allowed to be out here we just want to make sure everyone’s respectful of it, if everyone can leave the guns down for a second I’d really appreciate it”. Wonder how long he watched for a cease fire before driving up.

>private property
Should have told them to fuck right off back where they came from. In free states, you don't need a reason to shoot on your own land. Deer season, nigger season, trout season, who fucking cares season. I can shoot whatever the fuck I want. It's private property. Next time, tell them you're filing trespass orders against them for coming on private property without probable cause or a warrant. Don't let hall monitors act like they "give you permission" to exercise your rights. They just power trip cucked you into thinking you need a reason. Fuck tourists. Fuck cops. Stay the fuck off my land and mind your own fucking businesses.
>>
No, I shot on public land for years with no problems and lots of range bros.
I know own land near there and shoot on my own private land, surrounded by 30+acre parcels where everyone else also shoots.

>trying to revive fucking Q-ships by intentionally trying to hide combatants as cargo ships in 2026
Since when is intalling a bunch of radar domes and an obvious CIWS gun "hiding"? It's obviously not some retarded sneak attack ship, but a system to convert container ships into missile pickets. This would be the exact same thing as the US Navy strapping a containerized Aegis and Mk70 PDS onto their unmanned logistic ships. You know, the exact thing they have talked about doing and are actively working on?

Anyways, the program is obviously about making use of some of the 240,000 tons of civilian shipping that China has. Those container ships would have no purpose during a shooting war with the US since the war would slam the door on trade. Might as well hang a PLAN flag off of it and use it to disperse VLS cells across more platforms.

>inb4 more histrionic moaning about how this is totally different and obviously a warcrime deserving condemnation and punishment against China trying to stop the peaceful re-rise of the American nation.
There's always an element of hypocrisy in any international relationship, but the absolute brittleness you lot have about yourselves is just annoying.

>>64693679
>he knows that the chinks cant scratch him militarily
Why would China want to? They don't have to sink the USN. The PLAN just has to be enough of a discouragement to whatever 7th Fleet has long enough to form a ground situation that is too expensive for Washington to change.

Not much of a statement besides that the flight time was a little under three hours, they mentioned it 'flew along the flight orbit set in the sky above the West Sea of Korea' which typically means they did something fancy like draw a pair of figure eights or something like that to show off.

The statement was very short and there were only two images, usually this means that the next day there will be another announcement with significantly more detail when they know it didn't go wrong.

The long flight time is why the launch images are at early dawn but the impacts are in daylight.

Paper mill: http://kcna.kp/en/article/q/5df3722cd53266825c8e861014c71487.kcmsf

Part of the 20x10 project, they are building one in each province. Paper mills are solid economically; besides always having a domestic market if you have low labor costs and a print shop you can always get export products. Looking at the pictures alot of print work and stuff like wall paper will be done under the labeling of other nations. Un is very much correcting the problem of most Regimes: Too much heavy industry but no light industry or domestic products.

Kim is going all out to make the DPRK not suck and have a decent economy and standard of living, their current golden age already looks like it is surpassing the 1970's when it was the South whose economy sucked.

As to the heavy press thing watch this, it should be a requirement before being allowed to post on /k/: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZ50nZU3oG8

Even 3 10kt ones would be amazing for them, knowing them they would do something like make tank and armored vehicles where the each press was assigned to the turret, upper hull and lower hull of a tank to spit out a unending stream of armor like a IRL tower defense game.
