The picture is terrible but you get the idea. Why aren't there any beefier versions of this to sue as a snap caps or dummy round? It would make dry fire practice a lot more entertaining.
>>65033943That stuff doesn't work in a mold. It takes fucking forever to dry and it shrinks as it does so. You could cast 2-part silicone or urethane though. Or just use earplugs. that's a lot cheaper and a lot less work.
>>65034086great suggestion! thanks!
After looking around I found more of the wax + primer varieties. These guys make special casings where you can just drop in the primer, and they sell the wax projectiles in bulk https://gunslingeremporium.com/wax-bullets-shells-accessories/Howeer, not really what I'm after. Was hoping to find something that uses spring tension inside the case and the firing pin striking the "primer" would cause it to release the spring. I have a 3d printer so I might just try designing something myself.
>>65034149just make it completly hollow and use the force of the firing pin hitting it to launch your projectile.you can launch pencils into the ceiling with a normal gun.
>>65034220I like this idea, but I'm a little worried about it not absorbing enough of the force to do it's job as a dummy round/snap cap on a revolver. Was originally figuring there would be some seer inside that a nubbin would get smacked into to bend the seer otu of the way and release the spring. Just using the existing energy from the hammer spring probably makes more sense becuase it's probably stronger spring then what would be in the round anyways....Here is what I came up with using your idea. The orange piece is shown upside down, the nubbin on the top would go through the bottom cutout and be where the primer would be. Not shown here is some extra material I will add inside the case to act as a retension for the orange dumbell shaped object (it's that shape so I can make it retained, and I will have it print in place inside of the casing. It will have just enough movement to transfer the energy to the wedged in projectile.

>>65029805Keep it, stash it somewhere.Be disappointed that my secret admirer didn't add just a bit more to spring for a YC9 instead, I would be a lot happier to have a suppressable 9 that didn't need a nielsen device.

After a year long absence, the journey of the Busta Move(s) and her intrepid crew continues! Previous installments: https://desuarchive.org/k/search/subject/Target%20for%20Today/>what the fuck is thisTarget for Today is a solitaire tabletop game (translated to digital for these threads) covering the USAAF's bombing campaigns in Europe throughout the Second World War. With options for choosing everything from which Air Force, Bombardment Wing and Squadron you fly with all the way to which submodel of aircraft you'll be flying, the game is rife with detail. Over a year ago we began the journey of the Busta Move, a B-24 of the 15th Air Force (49th Bomb Wing, 451st Bomb Group, 725th Squadron). While perilous, our crew has done far better than the ill-fated men of the B-17s that shared the Big Nigger titles, with our current permanent losses consisting of:>Copilot Harris>Radio Operators Sean Bean and Poncho>Waist gunners Fanculo, Danielson and Sam Hyde, with another (Lefty Navel) being medically dischargedOur bombing results, however, have been much less impressive: out of eleven combat missions the Busta Move has been forced to abort due to combat damage six times, and on a mission to soften up Anzio for Allied landings we missed the target entirely. Our 10th mission, Milan, was another abort but the flight back was a nightmare. By the time the Busta Move returned to base, she had lost two engines, both main landing gear, all of the twin .50 cals had been rendered inoperable, the entire oxygen system had failed, one wing was barely attached, half the crew was wounded and dozens of other minor hits had been taken. That plane was retired and the Busta Move II was put into action, already having completed one mission.For now, strap your parachutes on, grab a K-ration and lets go bomb vaguely near strategic targets!
Radioman, please hail my mommy on any available frequencies. I need her to come pick me up, post haste.
>>65034091sweet jesus
We break off from the rest of the squadron, turning for home. We retain good fighter escorts, which quickly moves vital. A set of Germans picks us out as a juicy target, but the escorts keep all but one of them off of us. A flurry of gunfire convinces him that even this lone bomber is more trouble than it's worth and we're onto zone 2!
Zone two suffers us no German fighters, and our flight back to base is uneventful. We pull off the runway, get Fook some band-aids for his boo-boo and see about getting ourselves a new bombsight. Waiting for the rest of our squadron to return, we happily note that no planes are missing from the formation, although a couple appear to have suffered some damage. Those two are Cash and Carry, which took a series of hits about the time we turned around, and Bunk Buster, damaged on the return flight.Regrettably, despite no flak cloud cover mostly obscured the target and our squadron's second attempt on Piombino was no more successful than the first. >Cash and Carry: 2 damage>Bunk Buster: 2 damage>Squadron bomb run: Off Target>Bomb Accuracy: 0%

/frtssg/ - Forced Reset Trigger & Super Safety GeneralPrevious:>>64899646What are FRTs:Forced Reset Triggers (FRTs) are firearm modifications that allow semi-automatic rifles to fire more rapidly by automatically resetting the trigger after each shot, while still requiring a trigger pull for each round. They increase the rate of fire without converting the firearm into a fully automatic weapon.AR-15 is the most ubiquitous platform with the most amount of options. Other platforms have other nuances.See it action:https://youtube.com/@juiceymedia1https://youtube.com/@poorboyarmshttps://youtube.com/@printshootrepeatDistributors:Comment too long.

>>65032677wrong. they were actually pretty neat before. but yeah they are almost entirely obsolete now.
>>65032677They're legal in more places than FRTsAlso the 2 shot burst is superior to the 3 shot burst
>>65003005your alternative is an original for $30,000
>>65017611>>65017617>there is one end all be all answer for when full auto should be usedits extremely dependent on the gun used, the recoil, the firing rate, how much it weighs/its stability, etc.you can absolutely do precision shooting on full auto but it needs certain requirementslike an ar15 isnt as good in full auto for accuracy as an mp5 or a suomi, nor will it be as accurate as a pkm or an mg3and a 650 rpm ar15 will perform better than a 750 rpm ar15

>>65034158>>65034143only the 590A1 is all metal. the regular 590 has a plastic safety and plastic trigger group/guard. honestly with the metric shitload of variants Mossberg now offers across the 500 and 590 models, you really just need to look at the specific gun/model/package and pick the set of features you want.
>>65034143Blue Line pump unironically. It's just a norchinko built 870, all metal unlike most mossys these days
>>65034158the only 590 thats guaranteed the metal triggerguard is the 590a1.theres plenty of 590s that come with the default plastic triggergroup.
>>65033951This post should include a trigger warning.
>>65034146Part of me hopes they actually send the retailer stock to Ukraine. Wes Winkel being hunted down by crippled azov dudes with kitchen knives would be the funniest thing to happen in a long time around here.

>>65031129>>65031188A few months ago I was at the range with a guy building a 7mm prc, used retumbo for his testing. It smoked out the range with each shot - not as bad as BP but damn close

>>65033505Same powder? Ball powders will meter much better generally. You could try removing the cylinder and giving it a good clean but at the end of the day you will always experience a little crunchyness with stick powder

This probably has been asked a lot, but are bolters realistic? And if they could exist, would they be as good at penetrating armor as the tabletop game suggests?

He thought he had testosterone deficiency because he's 33 and still looks 18, but it turns out his test levels are literally off the scale, which, combined with his looking 18, means something is going fucky wucky in his endocrine system. Idk if he's done a medical update since.

Can we seriously move on from this boring design?
>>65024404Sure, if you can make a better one.
>>65025728They're called foreign military sales (FMS) for a reason.
>>65029468>I want heart guns now not brain guns.
>>65024404its the best design. you probably live in a shit state that prevents you from having one, otherwise you'd just shut up and buy a lever action, bolt action, hk space gun, steyr whatever you want.
>>65024404For those of us who just want cost-effective tools, there's no problem. Even if we want some particular feature, we just pay for it.You can already get all sorts of different designs if you're willing to pay for them.It's easier than ever for women and faggots to make money to show off their fashion sense.
