Post guns and/or melee weapons you got recently. Got this Uberti Cattleman in 44 mag to compliment my 44-40/44 spl Cattleman. Now to find the time to shoot and modify it.
>>65044696Nice piece partner, have fun shooting that canon
>>65044696It's been 5 months and in between school and work I still haven't shot it even once even though I already renewed my range membership [tommy_shelby_gun_to_head.tiff]
>>65044706Thanks, and yeah, I can't wait for the opportunity.>>65044729I hear ya, but man you really need to find the time to shoot it, then afterwards have a nice dinner on the gun.
I got this T3X CTR in 6.5 Creedmoor recently. Took it out for the first time today. >>65044696Very nice. >>65044729Where did you get that?
>shits all over staccato to the point of capitalizing the 2011 marketSo how did Kimber pulled this off, by getting rid of the old CEO?
>>65045959It looks worse in person, just cold blue everywhere (thumb safety, ejector, frame tangs, rear sight). I wish I would have bought a carbon steel beavertail but I got the stainless one for a crazy price.I used Mr.Hobby and tamiya paints, white tamiya undercoat, mr.hobby fluorescent red topcoat. They sell orange too and I bought it but the red is more visible. >>65045882Those are KC customs meusoc sights. Pretty nice sight picture with tiny light bars. .122" rear .138" front width. I failed big time at staking the tenon on and it's wiggling around. I would not recommend doing a tenon sight unless you're gonna buy two at the same time and accept that the first one is going to wiggle loose. Also use green loctite 620, not red. Red does not fill small gaps, which is what you want.

>>65046046I don't know anything about the Frogfoot's development, but every time I see this I wonder if Sukhoi copied their desgin, or at least the form-factor, from it.

Pictures taken at/over Edwards or the nearby dry lakebeds.
>>65043298Thanks Bud! Wish I could go back to those days. I was far happier.
>>65044667Know exactly what you mean
>>64945445>>64945909As a kid I sat in the cockpit of an F-18 Super Hornet on the deck of USS Enterprise. My dad met some young officers at a bar in Miami and they gave us a private tour of the flight deck and hangar bay. We rode the aircraft elevator down to the bay. All of that was a formative experience for me as well as the Fort Lauderdale Air & Sea Show every year from the beach and the roof of my grandparents' condo building. Lots of fond memories watching the Thunderbirds and Blue Angels and seeing a B-2 Spirit flying perpendicular to the ocean's surface. Never joined up but have always been pro-mil and usually a hawk.
Well as a surprise to no one, the UK can't afford a defense project and is trying to slow GCAP down by not paying.https://www.ft.com/content/c3de1d53-4aa8-4e11-87b1-409172bdc3ef?syn-25a6b1a6=1
>>64997553isn't canada joining this one too? If so, it's doomed
>>65045961Canada is joining as an observer, they're not involved in any further way beyond that.Really it's just a way for canada to get access to classified testing data that isn't available to non-observing members. They're probably kept more abreast of the program timeline, and they'd be one of the first nations they come to talk to about export orders.
>>65045979Given Canada’s plane procurement woes I think they’ll observe the price tag before doing a 360 and walking away. In the ideal scenario I doubt they get the unit cost below $150 million, and realistically I could see it going higher.
>>64997553when you look at this shit you have to understand that the british government is deliberately burning vast sums of money on destructive bullshit (immigrants, green energy) for the sole purpose of completely destroying the economy in order that the country can no longer survive independently, forcing it back into the eu as a vassal state.that's when it all becomes clear.
>>65046020Realistically I don't see anything below $200M as even possible.Even if GCAPs scale breaks 500 airframe orders in the first decade. It'll still be $200M+.They'll be lucky to bring it below $250M.

Why have they been so quiet? Are they being held in reserve to totally nuke energy markets if the US invades Iran?
>>65019315Ground forces and diplomacy. Like we did with FARC in Colombia.The US can do this stuff, just not in the Middle East because of retarded religious hangups or something.

Brass goblin editionI'm going to dry tumble the 9mm soon.
>>65045953>I picked up a mak in .380 recentlyI had one with a threaded barrel and it's the gun I most regret selling. The thread pitch was retarded, though, but whatever. >cheap blazer stuff is about $18 for a boxFML Fiochi was under $10, back then...If it runs it, go for it!Anyways, the key to .380 direct blowback in my experience is to keep them as hot as possible (~980 fps.) For me, the Eastern steel case was the ticket. I have a Smith and Wesson PPK and it loves TulAmmo (RIP) and, as mentioned above, Honey Day. Bottom line, keep it spicy.
>>65023635>fuddy-five and .303For .45, if youre loading for a 1911, copper jacketed round nose or those hornady hollow points. Seating depth is critical, too long wont battery and too short will fuck accuracy. Avoid the poly jackets, my 1911A1 hates em but my buddys hi-point slurps em down fine.For .303, round nose is fine but youll get better ballistics with spitzers and boat tails. Assuming its a SMLE, you gotta watch the little band just above the rim, pic related. How many reloads you get before seperation varies.
>>65045953>nigger rigged a media seperator, Based king.
How much pressure decrease can I expect from super light for caliber solids? Specifically 125 grain Xtreme Defenders over a "+P+" .44 Magnum H110 loads
>>65045964True, im wanting to move into a progressive set up to save time. Ought to keep the single stage for one offs, load dev, etc.>>65045986Id start on the lower end, and work up into the sweet spot ofc. Id have to do some reading on the maks, to see how spicy they can go.

>>65044578>I'm sure there are many many more.if something sunk in (relatively) undeep water its almost guaranteed to have been (illegally) salvaged, most of the Java sea wrecks have been picked clean
>>65044661Oh, I know that. The NTMG report is pretty critical of USN training standards and actually has a ton of 'lessons learned for future training and procedures' and even a section that's basically 'things we should implement in our Pacific campaign right fucking now'This willingness to adapt, adopt and learn on an institutional level made the USN the greatest naval fighting force for a century, after the Washington Treaty was signed.>the Ukrainians said the same about NATO fighter jets. the key point to grasp here is the difference in education standards and syllabiAbsolutely. Funnily enough this is something NATO already knew regarding jet maintenance.And it also includes what kind of maintenance happens at which organizational level, the decision-making expected at said levels, and so on.
>>65038883yeah but they were all germans anyway
>>65044504>developed ways to get clean steelYeah they stopped atmospheric nuclear testing.
If successful, increasing the temperature and pressure of steam could have resulted in long cruising ranges like those of US Navy vessels, but Germany's attempts failed, and they continued to suffer from engine problems.

Fat Amy or Slim Amy?
>>65044838*expensive
>>65044838The 9G v. 7.5Gs is a valid point. (Even though I don't understand why 7.5 isn't enough for the airforce when it's OK for the navy.) But we also don't need the gun on the C variant which adds complexity and the whole point of the way the production is setup that you can use all these "cousin" parts. Right now every variant in any particular order can go through LM's line without it being a problem, so you'd just have more of one variant than the other. Or is the bigger wing adding that much more to the production effort? I don't understand what you mean by dev program for ground based ops? Like shifting the training, MRO tailend from A to C in the air force?
>>65044884no, i meant removing all the structural elements that for carrier ops.
>>65044887While I'm not advocating for anon's position, that's not really true, you can just operate them as-is. The Hornet is in service with a bunch of countries as a land-based fighter and the Super Hornet is in RAAF service and most of those examples are still fully kitted out for carrier ops.The USAF would never allow it but technically speaking it's not an issue.
/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.

Kalash Bash TX 2026 is the April 10th
More info regarding the CMR30 FRT from Advanced Reset Tech from their IGhttps://kg2g.github.io/FRTINFO/Footage/CMR30ART.mp4
looks like asdesigns finally updated their production pagehttps://activesafetydesigns.com/production-status/
>>65046008For the love of fuck ASD, literally all you have to do is hire more people. Everything is already perfect except for the abysmal customer support and shipping times.
>>65046051They also need a new sample shop or something, they are getting tons of delays because of that
I haven't seen one in a good while. I'm seriously thinking about buying an AUG soon so I'd like some advice. I know there's both 5.56 and .300 blackout variants to choose from and I'm leaning towards the .300 and just using supersonic ammunition. AUGs are notable for being poor suppressor hosts anyways, right? Plus, prices for supersonic .300 aren't that bad according to AmmoSeek when compared to 75/77gr 5.56 which I already buy. Plus if I ever change my mind about .300 I could just buy a 5.56 barrel.
>>65042627>but I don't own any guns I won't shoot so there is some balance there too I think.That's fair, not all collectors have that rule but it's a reasonable sanity check if whatever niche you like has a lot.>Honestly I just need a better sale, like 1.2 or 3 for a 20 inch and I'm soldYeah if you're in no rush (and you don't need to be here) that makes a ton of sense, just have to keep an eye on various auctions and estate sales etc. They're common enough something will come up sooner or later. Tech industry guy I respected said something along the lines of "there are fewer bad products then there are bad prices", lots of stuff isn't like, out and out /bad/ per se but if it's overpriced enough vs the value one assesses for it still not a good buy.
>>65035402>he doesn't want better balance and an extra 6'' of barrel
>>65041223So I was at a point where I was deciding between the hellion and the RDB defender. I probably would have done the hellion if it wasn't for them deciding to give it an AR grip. Them modifying the lower to make it accept them makes it not only sit at a weird angle but also makes using the safety with the thumb difficult even for my orangutan hands. There's also of course the weight. It sucks too because I was drooling over them announcing it coming to the states for years and was really hoping I'd like it. Maybe if someone makes a lower kit to bring it back to the original grip and potentially the other barrel options I'd like it more.
>>65045996Lunartech makes one of these which is close enough for me. I also got mine in a 20" variant over the 16", which both looks better and has a different safety angle that I found easier to use.
>>65046003Oh I must've been out of the loop for a while I didn't know they offered the 20" now. I have the rdb now and I'm happy with it but I'd love to handle a hellion with those mods to see if I like it more with that
Just bought this little bastard for 140$ but i dont know how i should sharpen my straight razors with it. Should i have the wheel turning towards the edge or towards the spine? Should i just try to do modified x strokes?
>>65045798guilty as charged>>65045813no, it's usually people just knocking the edge against something. the sink, the faucet, whatever. you can do various silly things to work around needing a powered grindr, like taping the spine and stuff like that, but at some point, you are going to need to take some metal off (oh no!!!)also, there is an ample supply of damaged but fixable straight razors out there for fairly cheap since it seems the male identitarians have moved on from beard oils and other judith butler approved performative male acts and are now just straight up buying bread for men, I guess wet shaving was too complicated or feminine
God damn is this what your average razorfag is like? Damn, on an autism spectrum I'd rank razorfags above knifefags, but still below audiophiles and coffeefags.
>>65044788>I didnt know we were in a ranked pvp ladder match of giving advice here,We aren't. You made a mistake, I corrected you, and then you started whining instead of learning and moving on.
>>65044711I spent the whole morning doing yard work. You?Anyway, you didn't answer my question: why settle for half-assed when doing it right is so cheap and easy in this case?
>>65046017you havent given any advice at all helping op learn to sharpen. youve just autistically corrected other people on minor technicalities.theres nothing to learn from you.
