Hey, hey people!
A drug addict tried to pick a fight with me while I was walking home.
I live in Poland/EU.
What's some good self defense weapons for my laws?
Are those flashlights with built in tasers any good, would they work against someone on drugs?

A gun.
No, really. Poland is pretty good when it comes to gun laws. You can fairly easily get a permit which allows you to carry. You can get a black powder gun if you want minimum effort. Also, for hobos/drug addicts I'd recommend a pepper spray. You don't want to shot anyone unless your life is in real danger. Get a small gun/pepper spray so you will actually carry it.

Would the nail-bat not simply crack if actually hit against something? Seems like every hit would be driving nails into its own coffin.

The barbed wire bat would cause some bleeding I guess, what's the possibility of it getting stuck in flesh or clothing though? A club is already a deadly weapon at close range, potentially miring its second-strike speed for some open wounds seems like a bad trade-off.

I may have been trolled, but I was told that the rusting lead to anaerobic conditions underneath the rust flakes since most of the oxygen in the vicinity was bound to the iron in the form of rust, thus allowing tetanus to survive in the cracks and crevices of the rust surface.

Anyone have a kel-tec RDB? 17 or 20" barrel?
11 replies and 2 images omitted. Click here to view.
>>
>>64887598
NTA but significantly better than the tavor, imo. The center of gravity on the RDB is right above the pistol grip, and this makes it extremely comfortable to hold. The Tavor by contrast puts the center of gravity further back, and this makes it much less ergonomic.
>>
>>64886877
no. Rifle barrels vibrate like guitar strings; part of the mystery of rifle tuning is getting the bullet to leave the muzzle at the exact moment when the barrel's vibration is aligned with the point of aim. Thick barrels don't have better tuning, but they work harder to apologize for bad tuning because they wobble less
>>
>>64886192
I have one of the 17" models specifically because I got it used for dirt cheap. It is genuinely one of the nicer bullpup rifles available despite the price point if you can put up with KT jankiness (cheap plastic with screws everywhere that will break very easily if you abuse it). If you operate it like an adult it'll run fine. If you beat on it things will break (particularly the stock).
>>64887598
Very good. It is reasonably lightweight, well balanced, the charging handle is easy to reach, trigger is acceptable, optics rail is short but usable. In particular I like how it doesn't gas you in the face since the ejection port is oriented downwards.

Annoying elements are that it likes to eject downwards and back a little bit so you will collect brass in your pockets. Ejecting brass can also stain your shirt. The magazine release is a little stiff so that takes getting used to. Trigger is plastic. Forend has no heat shielding and does get toasty pretty fast. Barrel is also thin so it does heat up quickly too. These are all minor gripes though and overall the rifle is very nice.

Honestly just put a foregrip on it and you'll be fine unless you're absolutely belting rounds downrange at insane speeds

What does /k think about pcp airguns for defense purposes? In my country its quite a long hassle to (legally) aquire firearms. However, we have access to pcp airguns with no powerlimit.

I am thinking about getting a Huben GK1 shorty. I've read that they hit about as hard as a subsonic .22. I've seen videos of them being used, after the tank has been filled and unused for 14 months, so thats not a problem.

Or maybe a Bintac T9. I've read claims that they hit as hard as a .45acp. Also plenty of cusomization options.

apparently he's bringing a super low power variant of it to market soon that's legal because it's so weak. I'd almost bet that like with the bigass airguns he sells, there's a cheeky valve screw or something of the sort somewhere on it that you should never ever ever loosen lest it suddenly gain full power

It's expensive, but I got a seneca double shot that I keep at my in-laws house in california. My wife and I go to visit them a couple times a year, and I feel more comfortable knowing that I have SOMETHING I could protect us with, even if it's not ideal. There are videos out there of people hunting deer using slugs out of them, and I figured if it will kill a doe, then it'll probably kill a human at home defense distances with a decently placed shot. The fact that I've got a followup shot helps as well.
>tell your in laws to buy a real gun
They're just not interested. They're not anti-gun in the slightest, they just don't have any desire to be gun people, and taking the test for a ca firearms cert isn't something they want to do.

So, whenever we go to visit, a double-barreled air rifle sits in the closet next to the guest room bed my wife and i sleep in.

I've heard the Blitz gets some reliability issues when handled in any way other than stationary as a target rifle. I haven't heard the same about the Mordax or Sidewinder, but those are more than 2x to 3x as expensive.

So I did some math since I sometimes see people underestimate the casualties of Operation Iraqi Freedom.

OIF saw 791,908 active duty Army & Marines deployed from 2003-2009, and Army & Marines alone took 3,388 hostile deaths.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK220068/
https://dcas.dmdc.osd.mil/dcas/app/conflictCasualties/oif/byCategory
That means you had a 0.428% chance of being killed on Active Duty in Iraq.

Vietnam saw 5,162,000 active duty Army & Marines deployed 1964-1973, and Army & Marines alone took 44,058 hostile deaths.
https://dcas.dmdc.osd.mil/dcas/app/summaryData/casualties/principalWars
https://www.uswings.com/about-us-wings/vietnam-war-facts/
That means you had a 0.8535% chance of being killed on Active Duty in Vietnam.

This is pretty surprising since I think the average person would see 3,388 killed compared to 44,058 killed and assume that the later was at least an order of magnitude deadlier, not twice.

It's a somewhat interesting story. He was delivering mulch of all things to some place outside of Ramona, and eventually he was outside of a property and having two men open a gate for him to pass. When he went down the road a bit more, he said there were Dixie flags and shid all around with several people wearing white robes with shotguns (he said only a few had hoods on). They, according to my grandpa, were chill as fuck and had him dump the mulch outside of a shack sort of thing.

This happened in 2007, which is pretty odd since I can't imagine the KKK really being a thing past the 80s let alone in California.

I regret to inform you all, that after owning 14 different 1911s over the past 15 years, I have found 0 that were reliable.
I have tried practically every brand of magazine, and always use good quality brass ammo.

>4x Tisas
None of them have gone more than 50 rounds without jamming.
The pictured Tisas somehow managed to have over a dozen jams in 100 rounds.
Every type of jam imaginable. Failure to feed, failure to extract, failure to eject, stove pipe.
And that pictured double feed, with a brand new mec gar magazine. (The same type that came with it.)

>2x Colt
Had a series 70 that I sent back to Colt about 6 times in 2 years. They could never fix the issue, even after replacing the entire slide and almost all other parts.
Eventually they decided that the frame was somehow machined incorrectly, and bought it back from me.
Also have a special edition that fails to feed maybe twice per 100 rounds.

>2x Springfield

Could these simple steel helmets actually stop a bullet or were they just for shrapnel and flying rocks? If they could stop a bullet I would have thought, they would have given every solider a suite of armor made from the same steel.

No bullets, just shrapnel. Which is absolutely fine considering that shrapnel kills significantly more people than bullets in high intensity war.
>>
Considering the curved surface of a helmet and the fact that rifle bullets, unlike tank shells, are easily deformed by impact, could there have been cases where the bullet was deflected by the slope effect?
>>
>>64887150
Steel helmets which 'should' be easily penetrated by rifles, have absolutely deflected rifle rounds.
But this is usually at longer ranges and with very favorable angles of impact.
>>
>>64887150
Yes, there are many cases of that happening but it is purely a matter of luck. Usually at long range or after the bullet had gone through/bounced off something else first.
