>>64758651I remember when Kodak used to be all about photos.I also remember them being a longtime sponsor of the Imagination Pavillion at EPCOT.Sucks how everything I mentioned went to shit.At least the Beretta 92 and Glock 19 will never go to shit
I've been thinking of picking up a Gen 4 G19 and a Gen 6 G19
Do I actually have to get a gunsmith to a put an ambi safety on an HK45? I refuse to believe this.
>>64758803Does it not fit? There's an ancient post about it on a forum, https://www.hkpro.com/threads/hk45-hk45c-ambi-safety-install.166663/ that doesn't mention any gunsmithy steps.
>>64757757Mexican carry is for drug addicts and people who sit around all day. Even glowies who dont use holsters have some kind of sack or inside pocket for their gun.
What’s your favorite gun? Mine is my Nighthawk Custom Predator in 10mm.
>>64757566I love my USP45, but I have to admit that my bitch-made hands get beaten up BAD by the texture on the front of the grip. They do a good job at keeping the grip but DAMN it starts to hurt fast. Gotta use gloves
>>64758495Do you use gloves to jerk off your boyfriends?
>>64758749No, the gloves are only for strangers
I like the m1917 a lot It feels really good in the hand and I like how big the bolt is Also the dog ear sights are cool
>>64746538This and the Witness Hunter are in contention for the worst guns to ever defend yourself with. Imagine a jury hearing that you shot some unarmed home invader with the Nighthawk Predator
USA spent on average 250 000 bullets per kill in Afghanistan & Iraq.
>>64758647What is the point of your retarded tourist thread?
>>64758757
>>64758647That is what's called suppressing fire, you overwhelm the opposing side with a steady torrent of firepower which they can't match, then you move in to shoot and kill, optionally capture if the situation permits. Ammo is cheap when you're a developed military force, but I wonder if that number is entirely accurate, and accounts for stuff like enemies being killed in air strikes or artillery strikes.>>64758657I've heard the statistic before.>>64758659From an individual private person standpoint, sure, but you and me don't get into pitched firefights with Muslims or/and Russians on the daily.The study of combat records of WW2 and Korea showed two pretty fucking consistent and important things.First, whichever side has the most ammo with them and can maintain a collective high rate of fire the longest usually won.Two, riflemen NEVER fire beyond 300yds, in fact it's pretty uncommon for them to take shots beyond 200yds.Comment too long.

>>64758647The problem with all these "X number of rounds per kill" is they always ignore civilian casualties.

>>64755622>I fail to believe .03 of an inch can make that much differenceIt does. Using .308" projectiles in a .311" bore just means they will rattle around like a slim jim in a trashcan. You will never get good accuracy shooting Russian crap with Americn bullets. This is why Russia loses to Ukraine.
>>64758580There are entire books written about this, the USSR didn't do shit the Czar did. Russia spent half a century using US made rifling machines because they couldn't make their own. After WW2 they got new ones from the US and the old ones fixed and a few are still in use right now. It wasn't them being clever it was them being poor and incompetent.
North Grumman posted this video:>https://youtu.be/xumHWugbvkY?si=EYhc0xu96sy9Ye8pDoes this mean that the XM1182 HEAB-T is finally in use? Also a few follow-up questions:>could this setup be used as an "ad-hoc" C-RAM platform?>so now in theory every platform with an M230LF could become an C-UAS platform? (+a MHR radar)>could this ammo be used with the AH-64s? Israelis have recently used them as drone hunters.

>>64758831>$4000 fiber optic dronesLmfao is this the new cope? They're like an extra 200-300 bucks depending on the fiber optic spool size. Anti drone fags are even worse than droneniggers
>>64758875Fiber optic drones also need to be larger to carry both warhead and fiberspool.

>3D Printed GunsWhat are the best filaments you guys are using for frames and gun parts? Is it still PLA + or are the different carbon/glass infused filaments better?What are you guys printing?
>>64753478>Using AR FCGObviously people will gravitate towards designs that use common parts kits. Ivan made a printed FCG that used hex nuts as a hammer face.
Where do you guys mostly find out about new designs?Since fosscad got deleted I don't really know where to look for inspiration A while ago I was in a telegram group, but that got deleted as well
>>64758110r/3d2a has taken over for fosscad a bit, only a matter of time before it gets banned though, guncadindex has nascent forums and new releases.
>>64742368PLA +, all of the doped filaments are side grades unless you're having warping issues which they can help with. The main limit on print strength is layer adhesion with decent designs. Doped fibers usually have worse layer adhesion than a normal polymer blend so they don't tend to be functionally stronger. Also you're dealing with shit like carbon fibers being kicked up into the air too. Should probably have an air purifier running next to your printer though anyways tbqh.>>64742454There are apparently some surprisingly good 3dp suppressors. Fire rates are less limited than you'd think on account of them not conducting heat well. Definitely still in the disposable category but they can last up to 1k center-fire rifle rounds and more with lower pressure stuff. Key of course is to serialize an outer tube and recore it whenever it wears out.
>>64758798>Key of course is to serialize an outer tube and recore it whenever it wears out.Just FYI, if you're not an 07/02 then replacement cores trigger a new tax stamp. If you're going to go the route of engraving the tube and replacing cores, just keep your mouth shut about the cores being disposable.
Any anons here ever been to ShootSmart? Its pretty much the only range I hear about in DFW, but they seem extremely expensive: Their prices put me off but their also the closest range to my neighborhood so their convenient...Would you say if I shoot at the minimum 2-3 times a month that a membership would be worth it? How much money would I realistically save? If you get their most expensive membership you get to shoot at the lanes for free and get a free FFL, which is tempting but I'm not sure if its worth it bros...their normal prices are as follows>Public Shooting Lane: $17>Private Shooting Lane: $32>FFL: $45And that's not even counting everything else. Like I've seen Holosun Sights easily going for $400+ there. I think that they upcharge everything to get you to buy a membership, which is pretty scummy, but I am tempted I'm ngl.
>>64757503Nah bro thats a fucking SCAM bro thats a fucking SCAM bro...
>>64757503Fuck yamudda

>paying for public rangesLol. Lmao, even. Roflmao, for those so inclined.
>>64757503I've been calling it ShotSmart my entire life. No one has ever corrected me...
You have a moderately sized military force and you have to deal with several hundred of these things. Here’s what you gotta remember about them:>Nearly immortal, body can be damaged but the only thing that can kill them is fire>sever a limb and it will keep coming after you >burning them isn’t advised because the gasses inside will reanimate any corpses around them, including animals >They do feel pain, from injury and their rotting bodies>eating brains relieves said pain>they’re very smart, able to fake calls for backup and set up ambushes>speed depends on the state of decay, fresher corpses run like a human>nuking them would kill them, but it would spread the trioxin gas further and make a bigger outbreak in the endWell, /k/? You gotta get creative with this one.
>>64758081So life imitates art?
>>64758551>Numerous characters get violently killed>Gratuitous amounts of gore>Existential horror of unkillable avatars of death slowly taking over more and more of the cityUhhh i think we have different definitions of a "comedy" movie

What gun would you use to take down a serial killer elephant?
>>64753590Considering how they behave around trains, just imagine how they behave around elephants and it makes more sense.
>>64753287Like many people have already said, an Elefant gun.

>>64758212>>64758223It's just a modern Ruger, I got it off Gunbroker a few years ago. Not gonna let an elephant catch me lackin.

Horizontal grips are very cool, but are they useful in anyway though?
>>64758675Any foregrip is just an ergonomic point that you can potentially use to pull the gun more firmly into your shoulder, or just use in general if there aren't any other good places to grab the front of the gun. Not necessary, not bad, players choice really.
They're just for griping around something large like a drum or belt box. Try doing that with a VFG. you can't
They're useful in the sense that getting your arm around a belt box and still having a comfortable grip is difficult. Used to be decently common in the late 2000s for 240 gunners to mount SAW rail grips to their 9 oclock, but it fell out of fashion as GWOT drew down as peacetime meant a greater emphasis on 240s being crew served weapons, as opposed to in Iraq and Afghan where assistant gunners would just carry extra belts and otherwise just be functionally a regular rifleman on patrols; while spare barrels or tripods were rarely even carried.
>>64758675obviously, you retarded dishonest gorilla nigger
>>64758675it should be easy to remember the difference between horizontal and vertical because horizontal has the word horizon in it, and a horizon is a line that goes left and right, not up and down. vertical has the word vertice in it but a vertice is really just a point and not a line, but I guess vertical grips do make it easier to point the gun so there's that.
All things precision shooting, no experience necessary. Discuss rifles, barrels, action, glass, loads, groups, competitions, and anything else related to the pursuit of tighter groups and longer shots.
>>64757163The fuck are you on about my post had nothing to do with leveling my scope
>>64756674>made in chinaWell of course it is, that's not the point though. The point is you really can't make mass produced consumer goods anywhere else thanks to them, and when you do they just steel your idea, cut you out and sell your product. Thanks for the free R&D and startup money roser, it'll make us a lot of money
>>64757270You prefer boomers rip people off instead of china?
>>64757649Yes. At least boomers came up with the idea. I don't think you understand just how collosal of a mistake it was to rely on china for practically all manufacturing capabilities. The only way we can hope to salvage our industry is to patronize it, even if it's all coming from the same place
>>64757132Literally any photography company will we way cheaper then “gun” tripods and heads hell even bog tripods are perfectly good and you can get them cheap as fuck at box stores

>>64754914the point is that the admin gets to ask you invasive questions about your loyalty. >“An F.B.I. employee’s loyalty is to the Constitution, not to the director or deputy director,” said James Davidson, a former agent who spent 23 years in the bureau. “It says everything about Patel’s weak constitution that this is even on his radar.”>Although the courts do not typically consider polygraphs admissible, national security agencies widely use them in investigations and background checks for security clearances, among other matters.
