>>64634389You just hit the paddle and let them fall, don't pry them out.I made a webm of this like 8 years ago and I'm trying to find itm
>>64634394>>64634459>>64634841I don't have a trigger group with the paddle, my 10/22 is older with an aluminum construction vs the newer plastic ones with the paddle. I've got the flap you push up.Maybe it is skill issue, but I can't fucking figure out how you're supposed to "push button, receive mag" correctly.I can try it a hundred times, and three or four out of a hundred it pops right out. I have no problems with higher cap mags that protrude, so I just use those most of the time instead.
>>64635016Definitely a skill issue

The shills say you'll definitely buy one.
>>64635687>SupposedlyYeah...They also said gen 5 would be compatible with gen 4 holsters, they are not.I don't give a shit about grip texture because I carry how you're actually supposed to carry, OWB on the hip. If you need to conceal, carry a pocket gun. Waistband guns are never really concealable so just make a fashion statement of being armed. No one ever said anything in the 8+ years I carried a compact OWB at 3 oclock, before I wised up and became a pocketchad. Now only carry on the hip in winter.Meme triggers stick out further and just give me a bad feeling like if I have to move from frame to trigger quickly, I'm gonna miss the mark. All my triggers are curved and I'm supposed to get a gun that has a flat trigger that sticks out further than the rest? Begging for an error, and for no real benefit. That's why they're a meme. That's not really gonna affect the smoothness of your press or the accuracy of your shooting. Glock has gone full meme, it really was Gaston's stubbornness keeping them from going to absolute shit.
>>64629913Idk. Looks uncomfortable to carry, and the improvements seem margianal. Im probably just gonna get a gen 5 g47 and skip this one.

>>64634862No, I won't. Never bought glock and probably never will since the other strikerslop tends to out pizza the hut
>>64634136I haven't tried an LTT, but I really didn't like the base PX4. Honestly what I'm really thinking of switching to anyway is one of the new 19-sized 1.5 stack guns, probably a Shield X, I've got small hands and the skinny grip is a game changer for me. At least that way I'd have identical controls and trigger etc. between my summer carry and winter/range guns too.
>duuude gun laws are pointless because everyone with 4k worth of tools and 2 weeks of free-time can build his very own SMG (that has an effective range of 10 yards)ok but where are you going to get the ammo? sure, smuggling 10 rounds across the border is easier than smuggling a weapon but for a proper "protect the rights of the people"-situation you need hundreds if not thousands of rounds per gunseems like it would make more sense to build DIY long range rifles instead of SMGs / Pistols so you can get the most out of each roundyes, you can make your own ammo with blanks and slugs but that stuff can be banned too and then its back to square 1
>>64630056That's been done. The guy's name was Jeff Caselman. He built an airmachinegun and was selling the plans. The feds killed him iirchttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUKxO03HlOMhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDqs2GSaCXs
>>64636372Automatic air rifles are unregulated and available for sale right now.
>>64630041anything rifle caliber requires lockup, a lot more complicated than an open bolt pistol caliber SMG, which only requires the bolt be of the appropriate mass.long range rifles require hammer or striker fired actions, this complicates the trigger mechanism. Open bolt SMGs only require that the trigger can hold the bolt open and get out of the way. These improvised submachine guns suck, but that isn't the point.
>>64630041An actual retarded autistic German loser managed to make his own ammo from scratch and go on a shooting spree with it. Retard.Before we had modern brass cartridges paper cartridges were used as well. They still work. So do plastic cartridges, the only problem with them is a likelihood to stick in the action which can be resolved.That's of course ignoring even simpler solutions like black powder with electronic ignition. You could easily make simple cylindrical preloaded steel cartridges like that.
>>64636402or you could detonate a gas mix with a spark and never have to worry about casings, priners, chambering, none of that shit
how would it change WWII if we adopted a closed bolt colt monitor with a flash hider instead of the garand and BAR?it's only a few pounds heavier than a garand.
>>64633566>did everyone forget we were getting outgunned in vietnam because the m14 had 20 round mags and too much recoil?the US withdrew from Vietnam during a favorable ceasefire after having secured the border, and then declined to go back in when the North attacked again two years later.
>>64633298It would be really fucking cool, because maybe we would have had stockpiles of monitors from the CMP. Then again, maybe the garand would be the hotness.

>>64636273I find it kinda funny that both Romans and Turks have foundation myths of their founders being raised by wolves, and then the Ottomans even went on to cosplay as Romans for a few centuries before giving that up.Although unlike the Romans, the Turks don't just have their legendary founder be raised by a wolf. He goes on to marry his wolfmom and their children become the Turks.

Unpopular opinion on this board: (From a relative close distance)Ive tried one of those arrows here and it cutted straight through an European wooden door (meaning, heavier, massive, not made of cardboard). It got stuck because of the back part of the arrow Lets say from close distance:A single arrow of this kind is deathlier than a single bullet from the same distance honnestly. This blade cutts enough veins and its impact is horrific. If it hits an artery its done soon but even the veins, tissue, other shit it damages is quite sick if you ask me. It's dark here now otherwise I could show you the door with literally a vertical hole of that arrow through it. I think a bullet will be my choice if I have to choose between being hit by a single bullet or a single arrow of this kind
>>64636196>like Joerg SpraveIs based but I still reiterate that 50-80lb pistil crossbows are a terrible choice for self defence Vs e.g a claw hammer or simple crowbar.
>>64632807No. That was FMJ. Literally the worst performing kind of ammo possible. It was also .223 rather than 5.56, so significantly lower velocity than it really should be.>>64632667Your opinion is unpopular because it is incorrect.
>>64636189You realise the energy stored in the bow does not increase when you insert a higher weight bolt and that the formula for kinetic energyis mass by velocity squared? Therefore reducing velocity while increasing mass will result in less kinetic energy.
>>64634822>I also don't think anyone is foolish enough to use hollow point 5.56 for anything but small game huntingwhy, do you think hollowpoint 5.56 gets stopped by a thick coat?
>>64634822hollowpoint 5.56 is one of the preferred rounds for US SOF, both for use as a general purpose round and its actual designated role for long range marksmanship.
Gunbrokers legitimate? I'm thinking about getting something in there but I don't understand how it works and how to actually find a dealer to send the firearm to anyone who has any history or information I'd love to get some advice thank you and you have a nice day
>>64635948Yes its legitimate. You just purchase the gun and ship it to a licensed gun dealer (just google the closest one near you, it should say on the website but you can call to check). You will have to go there and fill out a form and background check and in a week or 2 can go back and pick up the firearm.
>>64635972>week or two for a background checkNot all of us live in commie states. >>64635948Gunbroker is legit but sometimes the prices can be ass. Use gun.deals to potentially find better pricing, but otherwise the othe guy is correct. Depending on what state you live in, background checks can be quick. Picked up a APX the other day and only took like 10-15 minutes
>>64635948gunbroker's legit. Just be mindful of the fees. Not only do you have to pay state sales tax, but you also have to factor shipping, transfer fees, credit card processing fees, shipping insurance, etc. And there is of course the one fee that everyone hates, "pay by check/money order" only.

It's been 2 months...https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/hidden-hangars-navys-fa-xx-could-decide-china-fight-trump-moves-now
>>64636068>there is debate around increasing the B-21 buy from ~100 airframes to 150-200They should do that and cancel the F-47.
>>64636149That would be dumb. While there’s talk of pushing the B-21 into ISR and missileer roles the latter as far as we know is only in the early concept stage. On top of that, even with the extra $4.5 billion to speed up B-21 production I haven’t heard a production number floated higher than 20/year, though that is a significant increase over the ~7/year that it’s estimated they can do currently. Finally, 50-100 extra subsonic bombers can’t generate a high enough sortie rate to fill the gap made by 185+ supersonic fighters
>>64636167They're going to be flying along subsonic UCAVs anyway, the speed doesn't matter. The F-47's range and payload requirements make it nearly a bomber already, It's going to be more like a stealth F-111 than a stealth F-15C.
>>64636235We don’t know what the exact CCA CONOPS look like currently. It’s very possible they end up forming more of a picket line while the F-47 runs around at high speed playing fire brigade wherever there’s fighting on the front. Even if that isn’t the case if they base F-47 at Guam high speed is very useful just to cut down transit time and increase sortie generation. We have no good public information on payload, but if the variable cycle engines deliver their claimed efficiency increase and the 1000nmi combat radius is taken as closer to the upper bound it won’t need to be a 100k MTOW monster like the F-111. If, and admittedly it’s a big if, Boeing is bidding a similar design for both NGAD and F-47 then the MTOW is probably in the 80k range similar to the F-22, as that puts it in the right size class to more or less max current carrier cat and trap weights. With the USAF focusing on combat mass there’s no reason to cancel a program that hasn’t hit major developmental stumbling blocks and would be more able to deliver on that mass, in favor of forcing a larger, more expensive, and very in demand platform into that role. Even with the missileer concept only being talked about as a supplement the strategic bomber command is already pushing hard against it, as they’re looking down the barrel of a major bomber shortfall as the B-1s approach the end of their useful service life and have no interest in sharing their production lines until that shortfall is addressed sometime next decade.
>>64636351>If, and admittedly it’s a big if, Boeing is bidding a similar design for both NGAD and F-47 then the MTOW is probably in the 80k range similar to the F-22, as that puts it in the right size class to more or less max current carrier cat and trap weights.Assuming you meant FA-XX, my understanding is that it's planned to use mature 30,000 lbf F110 engines, which suggests a smaller and lighter aircraft compared to the 40,000lbf XA102/XA103.>strategic bomber command is already pushing hard against it, as they’re looking down the barrel of a major bomber shortfall as the B-1s approach the end of their useful service lifeSAC/GSC can fuck right off back to the 60s. Their role is no longer necessary, SLBMs can handle 100% of nuclear deterrence. There's no need for the overhead if their job is to spend 99.999% of the time jerking off and 0.001% on Midnight Hammer type shit.Perhaps the right call would have been to cancel B-21 rather than F-47, but they're examples of convergent evolution and the B-21 is here already.
They are coming for your leadhttps://www.npr.org/2025/12/08/nx-s1-5599539/hunters-encouraged-to-trade-lead-bullets-for-copper-to-protect-scavenging-animals
>>64635521Weight gets incorporated into the umbrella of balllistic coefficient (though of course shape is an impact too). But you can get identical weight copper stuff, it just has to be somewhat longer due to being lower density, so the primary issue is if you run out of COAL headroom for older cartridges not designed for modern high BC rounds. Then you either have to go out of spec or swap cartridge. But normally with anything anyone uses for hunting it's not a problem.But the point isn't that it has no impact, the point is that the impact isn't likely to be a limiting factor in typical hunting even with somewhat different BCs because you just don't see significant drop or windage with normal center fire stuff at all until you get to distances that are way beyond what most of us do (or ethically should) hunt at. I mean, there are also other approaches, like any modern optic beyond airsoft tier should track well, so you should just be able to note down different zero points too and could adjust that way, but it's just not a big deal. I really think most of the lore around zeroing before hunting season is more about (very reasonably!) creating a ritual for people who aren't shooting all year to take some time refamiliarizing themselves, getting into the mindset and meeting up with buddies vs a major risk of the rifle having had a radical zero shift in storage. And of course it doesn't hurt just in case it did take an impact without one realizing it.Plus it's fun.
>>64635564>But you can get identical weight copper stuff, it just has to be somewhat longer due to being lower density,Around 15% longer, to be exact. (Jacketed) lead is ~20% denser than copper, but since you lengthen the body and/or boattail rather than the nose it works out to a smaller length increase proportionally. That means copper bullets can start having boattails at lighter weights, which is cool.
>>64635593Yep, and as a practical matter I don't there's any downside in something normal like 308 or 6.5 either. SAAMI COAL only starts to become more limiting as you get into older magnum stuff like 300wm. That's got enough vroom to throw really high bc high precision stuff, but the spec doesn't let you go as long as you might like nowadays without uncomfortably deep seating. So it's become pretty standard to just go out of spec in well experimented with ways, though then you have to stick with that going forward. I think medium term better solution will just be to jump to 300prc, which is basically "how reloaders have altered 300wm anyway, without the belt and a few other misc fine tuning, standardized" and seems to be getting traction ok for a new cartridge so maybe it'll actually succeed.
>>64634790>Being able to make your own lead bullets should never be controlled.Do you also feel you should be able to quarry your own asbestos to insulate your home?
>>64636342nta but there is a spectrum of harm/value tradeoffs here dude. Asbestos or running a home PCB plant with waste dumped into a stream behind you is pretty fucking different then making your own lead bullets for an antique. Someone making their own boutique stuff is so damn niche and so specific to them that the balance falls the other way.By all means regulate some external effects, proper disposal of by products etc, and if you're really concerned could set some really high ceiling to prevent commercial abuse, "maximum 5000 bullets per year and no selling them", but juice doesn't seem worth the squeeze in trying to ban something that individual. Plus I really oppose laws that are effectively unenforceable or only enforceable with a immensely evil panopticon police state.
