Late Christmas EditionPost what you want about anything. No rules.Previous thread: >>64597464
>>64747085>>64747101I apologize. what I meant to say was that that is an Imperial German Mauser K98k. Easily pre 60s. They didn’t solder barrels to barrel extensions back then did they? I’m hesitant to MAP the barrel up past 600°F to find out. I don’t think it is. A more general question, has that ever been a method to time bbls in place?
>>64747214dude i dont care that its not milsurp i want to know what it ismodel 11/ 11-48? i think the barrel extension is an integral forged part. idk anything about newer remingtonsand what do you mean by timing barrels
>>64747212Jeez real boomer hours today>>6474722711. My barrel extension is cracked and is trash and is expendable. However I’m trying to save the barrel to throw onto the new extension I have already sitting next to the barrel vice on the bench. Shits not budging. I’ve applied some heat so far but it hasn’t cracked it yet. I’ve applied enough force already to bend the rails the extension though I do have a cheap eBay trash action wrench.
>>64747057Who the hell is buying these anyways? It’s not like M48s are particularly rare or expensive.
>>64747212been while since ive seen this post. Been asleep the past few threads?

>>64745246>SS breaks or wears out>no biggie, just get a new one for peanuts>Raregreed breaks>lmao get fucked that will be $500 plus tip
>>64745255Lol yeh SS costs me about $0.35 to make in fancy cf-filled nylon.
>>64736935>>64738629thanks for the info, don't know if I can even get an FRT or SS in washington state but whichever is legal and less gay looking the better (not totally sold on leber because 3d printed)
>>64746855What's the point of FRT in Washington? May as well go full naughty.
>>64747296NTA but the more common it is the better in my opinionand an FRT will still look better to most people than a full on machine gun, i already know several people in ban states with FRTs but none of them would dare make a machine gun

How come gun ranges are allowed to own prohibited guns and even rent them out to people but they aren't allowed uncapped magazines?

The Original Extended Mag EditionOld: >>64740675Music: https://youtu.be/C906lbkcYug
>>64747199I worked around the house and spent the rest of the day just watching the news
>>64747181We get it bro you just watched the hop videoYou can just have a guy mig weld a little bit of aluminum onto the ledge and then grind it down a little. Or just take a 1/8 bit and drill a little bit into the area to the left of the ledge so the latch sits lower. The problem he mentions in the video is that companies are not actually drilling the cavity deep enough and that's true and also the solution
>>64747236>spent the rest of the day just watching the newsso what did they learn you today big guy
>>64747254That I’m addicted to the dopamine happenings give me
>>64747273what's the latest happening?
>what are you playing right now?>what are your favourite /k/ certified video games? I'll start, I've been recently playhing Read Or Not and as someone who played SWAT 4 back when it came out, I've enjoyed it so far
I bought a Quest just to play Ace XR, and it's still the only game I've ever played on it. Totally worthwhile investment.Interesting side effect: I'm actually okay at point shooting now, a la Han Solo. Turns out if you have enough "ammo" you can get pretty decent at it. I still would never shoot from the hip 'IRL' (which God willing will never happen), but it's a fun party trick at the range.
>>64746666>I can smell you from here, Rus!
>>64737315>>64733848I always wanted to try this but the janky thing always kept me away, like how do you fuck up the controls in a tbs game?
I'm a little into Beyond Citadel and it's fun. >gory sci-fi animu aestetic>dev is a Marathon fan>splits reloading into 3 buttons (insert ammo/magazine, cock/pump if you're not using an auto/semi-auto, unload magazine if it has one)>balanced for lean>gives you a riot shield>sometimes a dying enemy will pull out a pistol after falling down and try to take a last shot at you>guns can jam and you need to clear them if they do>thigh highs
>>64747289they can also pull out grenades when they're woundedprob my goty for 2025 honestly, supports different playstyles and the world has a cool feeling despite (sometimes because of) the sparse art and it feels very baroque influenced too.
IIRC 50 cent was shot nine times but survived because it was pissant caliber like .25 ACP
>>64742217Is this exclusively for in production pistols?
>>64746994yeh
>>64741733The caliber is wayyyyyyyy less important than the placement, nigger.
>>64742198>all niggers carry glocksThat isn't even close to true. 99% of thug jiggaboos can't afford to change their mind, much less carry a decent weapon. I work EMS in a county that includes a gang shit-hole. Most of those midwits are "slangin'" cheap shit autos or revolvers.
>>64741901
So I was digging through some old gun parts boxes looking for something and I found these spikeybois.WTF are they? I couldn't figure out what they possibly mount to or what they could be used for.
>>64745673You can save a lot of money by not ordering doordash for every meal.
>>64745715But then I can't blame "the man" for my inability to afford a house
>>64745417if you were to give me a riding horse i'd probably learn how to ride it. Hell, i'd just have to spend some time looking at a guy riding one to figure it out. I would be BAD at it, sure, but i would learn how to ride.Same with a windmill. If i were somehow stuck in a windmill and needed it to run to survive i'd figure it out. Would it suck and would i make mistakes? Yes. But i would figure it out.The point isn't knowing what the older generations did, is being able to figure it out.Humans cant just pass on infinitely growing wisdom from one generation to the next, so its the current and new generation's responsibility to just be smart enough to figure it out.
>>64745354Literary rates in the US are split in to 3 levels, with Level 3 being the highest; anything below is considered “partially illiterate.” From 2017, we had 48% of the adult population reading at Level 3, 33% at Level 2, and 19% for Level 1. There was a 2% increase in Level 1 and a 2% decrease in Level 3 from 2012. For 2021, the rates are now at 28%, 29%, and 44% for Levels 1, 2, and 3 respectively. Numeracy rates have remained relatively the same, but people are becoming more illiterate for this past decade alone. Not to say that means people are becoming dumber, but being literate is a huge hurdle for the modern world and being able to make effective decisions in an information and text rich world. One could argue that you probably want to be able to read the name of the person you’re voting for on a ballot, but if you see announcements for portraits being put on ballots then you know why.
>>64745360Yes and they were right.

Thank God for skirts
>>64747162The real question is why aren't skirts more popular? I see lots of short shorts in summer and pants in the winter but very few skirts in comparison.
>>64747248Because it hides their ass.
>>64747248The Germanic conquests of the Roman Empire and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race.
on one hand, probably a dumb idea against near-peer, and even worse with MANPADS, but on the other what is the replacement?
>>64746972>Out of a bit over 700 made there are only 76 airworthy examples. No more are being made, and what are left are being supported via cannibalization programs or very expensive retrofitting and rebuilding.>We need a replacement, that is currently being manufactured. Not an airframe that at best is pushing 65+ years of hard use.It had a damn good run, but the Buff needs to retire.Those arguments are crap and you know it.
>>64747001> the Buff needs to retire.Correct
>>64747018>the B-52H is expected to serve until the 2060sBUFFS ON MARS!
>>64746942Looking at wikipedia stats an A-10 can carry 16000 lb of ordinance while an F-35 can carry 18000 and an F-15 EX 29500. It seems like instead of wasting money on making another aircraft we should just get more F-15 EX and F-35.
>>64747001yes its extremely expensive to keep those dinosaurs flyingWhich is why noone operates shit that old in the commercial sector
Alright anons show your favourite wheeled IFVs. Just know you will always have to live in the shadow of the bad boy that is called the Boxer. Your inferior dingy shitshacks will have to do for you guys i guess.
>>64745317instant 1 billion deutsche marks invest from germany
>>64741555Unironically, I think wheeled IFVs might become more common given the resilience of wheeled vehicles against mines. Instead of the track being blown off they can retain some mobility with the remaining wheels.>>64743974>>64745118Given how Soviet/Russian doctrine has them advancing with and supporting infantry, BTRs, especially the 80A/82A count as IFVs at least from a doctrinal standpoint, even if they may as well have paper armor
>>64745422I still don't know the difference between the M2 Bradley and the M3 Bradley.
>>64746136The designation they gave it literally means armored transport though. BMP translates to IFV
>>64745147wheels being less logistics is a meme and a lieTop speed on road travel is also irrelevant
TRVTH NVKE
>>64742502>capacity>the more bullets you send in their direction, the stronger this feeling becomesIts truly amazing trying to understand what these people think. It's like they plan to just wildly mag dump in an attackers general direction, then unironically think that an attacker is going to ignore the first 10 rounds headed their direction until deciding that the 11th was too much and giving up.9mmlets are mentally ill.
>>64742502May as well use .22 lr at that point. More ammo capacity, less recoil.Or maybe you want to kill the perp in 2-3 shots instead of 10-15+ nerf darts, giving the bullet sponge Somali daycare employee time to kill your ass as well as he is going down.
>>64742297IF YOU CAN’T TAKE DOWN A THREAT WITH LESS THAN 10 ROUNDS OF GOD’S CALIBER YOU WON’T KILL A THING WITH 15t. Zoomer
>>64742329>Private ND'd into Sherman tank
all rounds cause damage through cavitation trauma. at a certain point it becomes incompatible with life.
I finally managed to sell my piece of shit Saiga and now have space for another gun. PS90 or AUG?
>>64747105AUG, but I generally dislike any pistol caliber rifles.
>>64746923ARfags think anything other than a varmint caliber with a giant recoil absorbing spring behind it "kicks like a mule.">>64747105>piece of shit SaigaLmao what a sad mistake, don't let the NATO propaganda here get to you so much kid.
>>64747165It's heavy and I didn't like it. Though I say that and I have a 10+lb AR setup. Also was a pain in the ass putting any sort of aftermarket shit on. plus ammo. I am done with Eastern slop!>>64747120Same, but I also have an FN 5.7 and would like to pair the two together. At the same time, I have wanted an AUG since playing black ops. Not an A1 though, would get an A3
>>64747230That makes more sense if you've already got the 5.7. I could go either way in that case. It sounds like you might want the steyr more though.

It's that time of year /K/ommandos! Were we reminisce the years that have past and look forward to the new one that is now unfolding! And that includes thinking up of goals for ourselves to achieve this year! You have been thinking of how to become a better /K/ommando right anon?Anyway, I haven't seen one of these threads in a few years, so lets get one going. How do you rank against your fellow /k/omrades?Bonus points if you can add stories about your achievements. Also maybe its time to update the board? Add a few more,

>>64745441I started this thread before heading out on a hike! Nice little 5 mile treck with an old army ruck sack. Cooked some food, saw some pretty sights, sadly too many hikers for any plinking.Here's my s/k/ore, sadly still part of the /k/avalry.....>>64745472It still applies, thats still a possible thing (in the US at least). I do think it'd be nice to have a version 2, especially with some stuff that could be considered /k/ post COVID, I feel thats kinda when /k/s cultural shift finalized itself.>>64745618Impressive for a /k/raut!
>>64745441What..... what do the red and green mean?
>>64745359Does full /k/it mean a historically accurate surplus recreation of a certain country’s loadout or just a kit made from surplus in general?
