Stackan ammo in the Trump Slump EditionGuide: https://files.catbox.moe/9g5sv2.pdfPastebin: https://pastebin.com/gs6mLNikHow many rounds are you guys hoping to have before the midterms?
Hi-Point > Sig Sauer
Previously on /hg/: >>64605683
>>64616873Unironically, this. My Hi-Point has never gone off when I dropped it. Not even when I got hammered one night and drove over it.
>>64616909Hi Points only get shit because theyre cheap and ugly. Theyre remarkably durable and, unlike a Sig, wont kill their owner.
If Hi point could manage to make a micro 9mm single stack I'd buy it. Otherwise anons I'm gonna be buying a Sig 938 Leejun edition in 2026 to compare to my Micro 9.
PX4 fullsize chads rise up. Anybody that tells you the compact "just feels better" is coping.
After getting a ton of guns this year, I just want to focus on ammo
More (and better) 45 Gravehttps://youtu.be/MOZqgUVHsZ8Their singer calls herself Dinah Cancer, kek.
>>64616960Me as well. I already bought 2k more 7.62x39 and 3k more 9mm this year, should I get another case of 9? I read that prices on metals will go up next year making ammo prices go up as well.
>>64617001Thank you, anon. I look forward to looting your house after you run out of insulin.
>>64616960Probably gonna use my tax return on a suppressor
>>64617115Probably gonna owe money because I don't let the faggot government take my shit until the last second it is due.
Probably gonna use my tax return on rent because I don't make any fuckin money I don't know how you guys afford all this shit
>>64617115what cal? If it's for a short ar, I just got a Saker ASR and it's fucking fun. Just barely over hearing safe, can shoot it with the foam plugs no problem.
>>64617132I only make 27/hour 40 a week.
>>64617132There was a bad batch of Coca Cola that made people very sick. Burt figured it out and bought it all up. He then turned it into a pyramid scheme where you pay him and he gives you the bad cola which you then drink and get very sick so you can sue Coca Cola. You have to use his lawyer and pay him a percentage of the settlement.
>>64617155Probably an Obsidian 9
>>64616865does anyone else just not really like shooting long guns? idk what it is about them but i prefer pistols by a lot in terms of cool factor and recreational shooting
>>64617181I cannot for the life of me figure out how to make shotguns enjoyable without having to buy a lot of land where I can legally shoot and install a projectile launcher.
>>64617181I prefer pistols because it's easier to take them to the range.
For me? It's the Sig Sauer ROMEO8T-AMR™ with the Sig Sauer JULIET3T-AMR™.
>>64617191I have one that I keep around for home defense since I shoot it pretty well, but 12ga ammo prices suck and the recoil gets uncomfortable I think skeet would be the way to go but I'm with you on that in general
>>64617181Obsession with pistols is a very American thing
>>64617132I make money but I don't save it. I make decent money for my area but I would still lose 50% of it a month for the next 25 years to have a house, so I just keep living like I'm broke and spend everything on toys. It's only a glamorous lifestyle through the narrow lens of online pictures.
>>64617213Part of that may be because most of the world has done a pretty good job of outlawing them for civilians so a shooting culture never developed around them
>>64617132>I don't know how you guys afford all this shitno debt currently, and have a semi-secure job making almost 60k before taxes
>>64617132I have no kids, I wear cheap clothes, I bought a cheap house and I walk to work. Buying a 1000 dollar suppressor isn't a flex from my position, but more like what >>64617226 said, I'm just squandering shit on my hobbies.
>>64617181I don't mind shooting shotgun and rifle but only if I'm at an outdoor range and shooting pumpkins and shit, not paper
>>64617132i sell feet pics n vids
>>64617181I used to like shooting long guns as a kid, but after getting to shoot handguns, that's been my main interest. I don't even know why, but since the days of playing Goldeneye 64 and watching The Matrix, the handguns always seemed the coolest, and actually owning and shooting long has showed me: >Shooting static targets with a shotgun is boring >Shooting flying targets with a shotgun requires paying for clay pigeons and machines>Shooting long range rifle is fucking expensive and occasionally rewarding>Shooting mid range rifle is expensive and boring if you don't hunt>Shooting short range rifle is expensive and makes me feel like a queer who didn't own a gun before 2013
>>64616926>the version that is cheaper that i bought is actually better desu!wow how fortunate. but too bad the full-size just looks worse.
>>64617277Where do lever actions fit into this?
>>64617296leverguns are fun for the first 15 minutes then its just a rifle
You don't even shoot
>>64617296That's actually the only rifle I regularly shoot. It's chambered in a pistol caliber I can easily reload for, so it it's still relatively cheap to shoot. I have a handgun to pair it with, it's short, it's light, it's effective out to 200 yards, and it's really fun. But I still only shoot it maybe twice a year.
>>64617307Leverguns are fun in .357/.44 Magnum if you bring a revolver chambered in the same caliber
>>64617284>buys the compact like every fud from Bass Pro and gets an optic cut>N..noo anon the GSD is cheaper!>"I..it looks cheaper!" Anon says after seeing the identical image displayedCope. You do know the Langdonized GSD is superior but your sunk cost fallacy brain won't let you move on
>>64617330I shoot a little
>>64617351But then, why not shoot revolver?
>>64617132>No GF>Live with Parents>Credit Cards>Kind of lost hope for the future>didn't have a car payment
>>64617409At least you aren't living a life of eternal suffering due to debilitating chronic illness.
>>64617409Hey you're me.
>>64617132>Getting backpay from work contract in February I’m buying more guns.
>>64617409>Have GF>she doesn't work>I pay for everything>We live on our own>No money or time for gunsThis sucks man
>>64617468she can't work?
>>64616975>Dinah CancerWait, this isn't Architects c. Holy Hell.
>>64617132Studied mechanical engineering, got good grades, work my ass off to stay employed against ever mounting expectations, no wife no kids.
>>64617478She is in school full time for her master's. I don't really complain because she cooks immaculately, cleans flawlessly and is always DTF. Get a Catholic GF
>>64617495>Catholic GF>Always DTFHmm, something doesn't add up here...
>>64617505Repressed christian girls.
>>64617505He means she went to catholic school, kids in catholic schools grow up stunted and sexually frustrated due to the indoctrination of shame that they have to deal with everyday at achoolt. went to a catholic school, most girls were sluts
>>64617226me
>>64617428Well now I'm stuck with a car payment.Bought a Corolla brand new because I wanted a fresh start and my previous car got totaled
>>64616960>unironically buying nuSIG
>>64617213You forgot about gun giants making every type of wheel gun a man would want like Webley & Scott. Handguns used to be big in Europe and the Bongo and center fire pistol was an Olympic staple since they were more of a gentleman/officer weapon than a rifleIt’s only after shitholes eliminated handguns and civil rights that any knowledge of them outside America disappeared
>>64617567>unironically owning zero guns
>>64617181I shoot mine because at the end of the day they are the shit you will need for SHTF or for other times of chaos.Never mind that a pistol will never shoot out to 300 yards.But a 16 inch AR with an ACOG can in theory
>>64617567I have no problems with the M17 and I used to have a P365 and it was a great handgun.Both definitely need to hit the post 500 mark to be sure
whats the name of that thing that pusges your holster toward your body?
I'm beginning to notice that there really isn't much difference between full size and compact guns.The Glock 19, PDP Compact and Jericho 941 RS9 are all roughly the same size and they shoot as well as a 17, VP9, M17, and M9
>>64617610A wedge? Or a claw? They both do but differently
>>64617631yeh wedge, whats the best one
Is this too obnoxious ?
>>64617651yeah
>>64609025>The only reason to have a pistol is so officers can enforce disciplineThis reads like bullshit but it sent me down the summary battlefield execution rabbit hole>>64617181If you primarily shoot indoors, it's understandable why you wouldn't like carbines or rifles. For me, it's the greater distance and perpetual occupation of the good rifle-range [pictured]>>64617580>in theoryAnon, the Marines qualify with their 16" M27's and ACOG's at 500m to this day
>>64617641idk but you can make one with a flip flop or a Dr. Scholls heel cushion if you just want to try.
>>64617625That shit adds up though. Even a few tenths of an inch can change how a gun sits on you. I'm lucky enough that I can conceal a Glock 19 but a 17 is just a tad unwieldy
>>64617181If you ever have to shoot a person you will likely never touch a pistol again. Rifles are invaluable
>>64617700based and total fucking retard pilled
>>64617666You weren’t supposed to post here anymore schizo SNAPbin.
>>64617666well, well, satan, how the turn tables...
>>64616950I used nublue followed by boils Thinking about it salt blue would be better> ribonflavin flavored non-carbonated polyunsaturated bloodThis is funny because this year I’ve repeatedly been called a twilight vampire Even if VTM is way better >>64617181More expensive and more importantly it a harder to practice since a 25M range is useless.My Swedish Mauser was really good at shutting up loud people shitting up the range with a ak and arIt’s always nice to have the loudest gun in the range
>>64617651You have an empty rail anon… if anything it’s not annoying enough…. Flashlight or laser under barre?
>>64617785>> It’s always nice to have the loudest gun in the rangeAfter my own heart anon..
>>64617132I sold drugs for the first few guns I got as a teenager and then went into legal drug slinging for a career at about 67k a year. Basically I got lucky and a four year degree, otherwise I would do what I did before money wasn’t consistent and just save despite the frustration. Whatever you do, don’t buy shit gun just because it’s easier than saving.
>>64617651Yeah but it’s made to be obnoxious.
>>64617824There are very few shit guns on the market. You can list out some models but I own most of the "worst" offenders and they are priced to be the worst offender.
>>64617226this is me. I don't save a dime. Been making 40-55K a year as a machinist for a decade now and I just don't see a point in anything long-term anymore. What house am I going to buy when half my paychecks go to groceries and gas anyway? The rest just goes to hobbies. At least I'm not drinking anymore. 2 years off the bottle but goddamn have I been compensating for it by spending all my money on funs for dopamine.
>>64617830My point is that it’s much more worthwhile to save for a very specific purchase that provides longevity and training accessibility rather than another purchase that only offers the rush of just having another gun. Unfortunately the latter is rather tempting when investments that fit the former are more expensive.Also, there are A LOT of shit guns out there, especially in the very large used gun market
>>64617834>Also, there are A LOT of shit guns out there, especially in the very large used gun marketnta but this is 100% true. I'm not gonna bother listing them all off but I've bought several guns in the past 12 months alone that I either had to send in for warranty repair or that I just couldn't be assed to get fixed and either returned them (buds lets you return stuff) or i sold them right away to Cabela's (i have no moral qualms about selling a bad gun if it's to a bad company)Buying guns these days is like playing Minesweeper. Q.C. is in the fucking toilet across all brands.
>>64617845Not really anon, just need to research a bit. There's plenty of quality manufacturers still around, or new.
>>64617181I feel the same. The only rifles I like shooting are 22s where 200 yards is like shooting long range with a real rifle. Anything other than 22lr is just too fucking expensive. Even .223 is too expensive to shoot unless you are shooting slowly, at long range, but the only ranges near me that have that much space are either an hour drive, private member only ranges, or public land that is a 4 hour drive away.PCCs COULD have that effect, but none of them are even remotely accurate guns and even if they were, I would still rather shoot a 22lr.Shotguns are fun, but only for a little while. They are too big, too heavy, and require large amounts of land and clay throwers to be fun for more than 5 minutes. If I had land where I could go outside and shoot clays whenever I want, I would probably love shotguns almost as much as my handguns, but I would still prefer my handguns as they are just more fun and more practical.
>>64617700If I ever had to shoot a person, I would probably become one of those retards that are paranoid and obsessed with pistols and start carrying a full size 10mm and three spare mags because I want to make sure I have enough ammo and enough power. There is no way in hell I would stop using handguns after a defensive gun use.
>>64617698Well I did say "much of a difference". There is still a difference
>>64617818>crippling deptESLtard
>>64617181I like shooting 30 cal rifles and above even if its magdumping trash at close ranges. AR-15s IMO aren't that interesting if you can't reliably shoot them at long ranges but an AK or G3 are fun to blast with at any range.
>>64617830Wrong, there's a lot of shit guns on the market. My friend who never seems to be able to save much money keeps buying used cheap guns and its never anything good like copsurp its used Ruger Security 9s or obscure 40 cal handguns that don't work properly because the design was an afterthought. Nearly all get resold back to the store in 2-3 months.
>>64618364Your friend sounds like a retard. Security 9 is a viable gun though. It's a poorfag gun, but it'll gun when it's needed. Tell him to stop being a retard and just get a Ruger RXM and spend the rest on ammo to git gud. Ruger RXM is a poorfag gun, but it's a good poorfag gun.
>>64617410>debilitating chronic illnessIs for fags.
New walnut grips for my 10mm
>>64617015I'm gonna fuck you till you love me faggot!
>>64618586>>64618590I'm off the gun market for now but I have considered a 10mm GlockI might as well buy a used one.
>>64617181IDK why, but I lean towards pistols, too. At least a part of that is because if I ever have to use a gun, it will almost certainly be a pistol, since I don't carry a rifle. >>64617191Where I live (medium city in the south east) we have at least two trap/skeet ranges. I've never been to either, even though one is really close to me. I've used their pistol range and it has a pretty hardcore NRA Fudd boomer atmosphere. I prefer the let-yourself-in range 45 minutes away, even if it is starting to get crowded. >>64617271>I don't mind shooting shotgun and rifle but only if I'm at an outdoor rangeYeah, long guns inside is miserable. I have a lot of fun with paper when shooting milsurp bolt guns. It's crazy how easy they are to be accurate with. If I'm shooting intermediate semiautomatic stuff, I prefer mag dumping into trash.>>64617277Handgun are typically harder to be good with, so there is a certain sense of satisfaction that comes with that.
>>64618608I already have one plastic shitter so 1911 was a easy choice
>>64618586>>64618590You live in bear country or are you larping with that 10mm?
The best part of handguns is you don't need to haul more than a single bag to the range. It gets obnoxious to bring out multiple rifles.
>>64618631Larping. I’m also Czech so I am double larping with the belt buckle.
>>64618633That's for damn sure. I still haven't sighted in my Ruger American after I put on a scout rail with irons in it just because it is a pain in the ass to deal with long guns in general. I'll probably never need a long gun outside of a home invasion and even in that case, a handgun would probably work just fine too and it will be easier to get to, get out, and maneuver in the home. Why bother with a diminishing rifle skill that you will probably never use and is more expensive compared to the diminishing handgun skill that is more likely to be needed and can overlap with the rifle skill?
>>64618653As a Texan, I approve of the belt buckle!I didn't realize that you could carry in the Czech Republic. Is it somewhat common or is it more like carrying in New York/Commiefornia where even if it is legal and you are licensed, you are going to get sent to prison if you ever use it by a jury of liberal faggots regardless of what happened?
>>64617808Nigger I'm getting there it's a work in progress ....
>>64618666Thanks senpai, I actually got it in the US together with cowboy boots when I visited.Yeah, you can CCW and use the gun in self defense. They even put it into the constitution a while back.
>>64617330I shoot fat ropes every day.
>>64618698Well shit, I guess the Czechs are about the only based Europeans left. The Polish seem pretty cool too, but I don't really know enough about them to say for sure. Ever visit Poland?
>>64618727Poles are very based in their attitude towards ziggeria indeed. No idea how are the gun laws over there tho. Never been there.
My sig p365's slide is completely fucked up after a few practice draws from my phlster enigma btw. Did they uh, just spray paint this shit?
>>64616865>hear that Bereli is cool and has no shipping costs>order from them>a week later they tell me they can't ship me the gun I ordered because it's oversoldfinding deals is not worth it, I'm just gonna be a good goy and buy from PSA from now on
>>64619251Bereli is great for ammo, nothing else
>>64617284>>64616926I just want Beretta to do a 2.0 version of these things with better texture and if all possible a remodel of the grip to give it a lower bore axis
>>64616926I love my fullsize (in 40)
>>64619251I generally just buy from Academy unless it's something they don't carry. If you have their credit card you get 5% off of everything including guns and ammo. They usually have the best prices for guns outside of guns.deals plus no shipping or FFL transfer fees. A lot of the time it is the cheapest price period if you use their credit card and factor in not paying shipping or FFL fee.
anyone hold or shoot the sig p211?
Are extra power striker springs a thing? I kinda want to get one to spank my primers extra hard. They have been talking a lot of shit lately and need to be punished. Pic not related
>>64617651Would be cooler with a scope.
>>64619560What gun? Aftermarket striker springs are a thing, but usually people want to go the other way, getting a lighter one since it affects trigger pull. It's a bit of a desperate move though, since that leads to light primer strikes. Here for example, what wolff has for glocks, there is only one weight stiffer than factory.
>>64616917I would hazard a guess that more than 1 nigger has ever been killed by his own Glock Problem Solver in one way or another.
>>64617132No gf
>>64617132Rent is 1400 plus another 200 for utilities/ internet and food is 60ish a week. I pull about 3400/mo after taxes and have paid off all debts so I basically have half my income as play money for investing or hobbies. You can have a lot of enjoyment with firearms if you even have only a couple hundred a month to spend.
Is the LCR the actual best carry revolver?>Great out of box trigger so you don't need to get a trigger job to make it usable.>Can be had with or without the hammer>can be had as a pocketable snub nose or a 3 inch adjustable sighted belt gun.>Can be had in every relevant revolver caliber 22LR, 22 Mag, 9mm, 327 fedboi, 32 H&R, 357 mag, and 38 special with no random changes like with J frames.>Ruger has good customer service>Has a pinned front sight as standard so it is easy to change it out for a fiber optic or tritium sight.>Stock grips work just fine with speed loaders designed for the LCR, unlike J frames where you have to buy a different grip or the speed loaders made for them bind and jam up.>Every bit as lightweight as competing brand's offerings but kicks less for its weight category because of the polymer grip frame having a tiny bit of flex and the stock grip being nice and cushioned without an exposed metal backstrap.Seriously how do J frames even compete?
>>64619855>easier to short stroke the trigger than most revolversFor that reason alone, I'm out.
>>64619866Skill issue
>>64617356I GSD’d a inox .40 full-size that I had optic cut, using a donor 9mm barrel from a GSD. I did not find the GSD appreciably better than a normal LTT PX4 full-size and still prefer my compact
>>64616865Thinking about buying an M&P 2.0 to replace my glock.Are there any quirks or anything I should know about before hand?
>>64619953The slide stop is near impossible to release by pressing it down, so if you got used to doing it on a Glock, you are going to learn slingshot. I don't think there's anything else really that is that different. Oh, there's a manual safety version, watch out for that.
>>64617181Pistols have a much higher skill ceiling than long guns(excluding extreme distance shooting). Pistol shooting is one of those lifetime skills whereas rifles it's a lot less to work on.Also handgun is the most likely thing you'll use in defense, out and about at least, if that's important to you.>>64619953Stock barrel sucks, light strikes are common, grip sucks get grip tape.
>>64619855Honestly, yeah>>64619866Actual skill issue, that's a possibility with all da revolvers. Always pull revolver trigger fully to the rear.
>>64618620>it has a pretty hardcore NRA Fudd boomer atmosphere.Every skeet range I've seen is like this unless the skeet is a side-attraction off in the corner of a range.
>>64617213Yeah maybe because we can actually own and carry them.
>>64617132Guns are a rich person's hobby. If you're poor and want to exercise 2A/self-defense get a G19 and ammo and stop there if you don't want to destroy your finances.Saying this as someone who's been poor and bought nothing but a glock and ammo for years.
>>64619384It's good but the comp comes loose and it's Sig so there's probably a basket of surprises if you shoot more than a rental's worth. I'd go Kimber if that's your price range.
>>64620080This is the first time I've seen a normal person online recommend Kimber in a long timeWe are Healing...
Calling it super overblown is a bit much. Heres why...One of the main reasons someone would consider a revolver over a semi-auto is due to its simplicity. You pull the trigger and it goes boom. Willing to sacrifice the lack of rounds (in contrast to a semi-auto) due to the confidence that in a bad situation it is going to work with a significantly lower chance of failure (FTF, FTE).Secondly, in a life or death situation too many ppl have seen too many movies and shows and thus think they are going to react like Clint Eastwood or John Wick and fire one shot in between the eyes. It's much more probable that you are going to rapid fire multiple rounds.Enter the LCR's design flaw of false trigger reset. Specifically during rapid fire your cylinder will turn but the hammer doesn't drop. No boom in the precise scenario when you can't afford a malfunction.I love Ruger but I'm really surprised that they haven't addressed this flaw in the 12-13 years since the LCR debuted. Now some ppl may agree with you and say it's not a big deal or it's overblown. That's fine, it's just not going to be me
>>64620097Not sure of the drama surrounding it, purely based off holding renting several 2011s. The Kimber is better than the Staccato P and compact Staccatos. Can't speak to XC and all the new HD models.
>>64620131adding that I wouldn't carry either of them despite Staccato's marketing. They both grit up in ways that relegates them to range toys for me.
>>64617132I set aside a bit every paycheck for buying new hobby related things like TCG boxes, computer parts, firearms, and/or good storage solutions for hobby stuff. Though I do a bit of monthly things like being single TCG packs, vidya, or boxes of ammo.If you want to go full cheapshit though you can get a Heritage Rough Rider 22lr 6.5inch barrel revolver for around $100 and a $15 box of 22lr to plink with. It won't be as nice as some other things, but it's usable.
>>64620110>One of the main reasons someone would consider a revolver over a semi-auto is due to its simplicity. You pull the trigger and it goes boom.That really lasts until the first detail strip, strikerslop pistols are so much simpler compared to the watch-like timing mechanisms that rotate and locks cylinder hidden in revolvers.
>>64619917this makes me hard
Just got a Kiral defense backstrap for my G19 to try and fix the grip angle. It didn't help much, anything else I can try before I sell my Glock?
>>64620231>muh grip angleskill issue and kill yourself
>>64620262It's an issue, I don't like it, there are one million other options to consider.
>>64620264consider one option: kill yourself
>>64620266It's an issue
/hg/'s eternal seething over glocks will never cease to amuse me.
>>64620231With glocks you point the gun at the target with your thumbs while with a traditional grip angle you point the gun with your index finger.
>>64620283>make the gun worse for literally no reason>u mad?
>>64620293Yeah but that's inferior to an index-finger oriented grip because humans naturally point with their index.Iirc the Glock was intended to be an index-pointed gun, but when it was being designed they measured the natural human grip angle wrong. Can't remember where I read that though.
>>64620231As someone who slightly prefers 2011 angle, he's right it's mostly a skill issue. It takes me 10 seconds to adjust muscle memory when switching between them, past that I'm nearly indifferent. Glock angle(and glocks in general) are harder to learn. The Kiral backstrap is meant to alleviate tendonitis for a subset of people that get tendonitis on extremely high volume over several years, not make it a 2011. My advice is just take the strap off and learn to shoot the gun. Or just sell the gun and get a PDP or something who cares up to you.
Don't mind the gun, hate the company, hate the owners.
>>64620309It advertises itself as improving the grip angle.It's definitely true that you can practice around the grip angle, but it's totally asinine that you're forced to. If Glocks just didn't have the stupid grip angle I'd love them. Beretta 92s are a particular favorite of mine, when I present the pistol the sights are right where they should be.
>>64620319It can advertise itself as whatever it wants, it's doesn't recreate a 2011 feel but people with glock tendonitis swear by it.It's not that hard to learn. If you like glocks then practice and learn it. If not then don't. I just grabbed my microdot glock that I haven't touched in weeks and got the dot like 10x in a row.
>>64620299>incapable of learning how to hold a gun with a slightly different grip angle>cries endlessly over it
>>64620354>incapable of learning how to hold a gun with a slightly different grip angle
i honestly dont notice the difference between glog and non-glog gripsthe only thing i care about in a grip is how slick it is
>>64620364Yes you are incapable.
>>64620306>Iirc the Glock was intended to be an index-pointed gun, but when it was being designed they measured the natural human grip angle wrong. Can't remember where I read that though.iirc my grandpappy once told me them glocks wasn't made right and the govt sabotaged em to sell more 1911s i think, can't remember idk lol but it's true!!
>>64620373>Yes you are incapable.
>>64620364>why yes I shoot a PDP how could you tell?

this is the worst general on 4chan. even including /vg/ generals.
>>64617181I do bolt action every once in awhile but I haven't shot a centerfire semi auto in years*. It's just not as fun or as rewarding as pistols or rimfire. It's also a bigger pain to pack rifle stuff and pick up rifle brass, and I'm all about being lazy>>64618633For me it's walking targets out to rifle distances and back. Just kill me already. I deeply envy people with gong ranges, God that must be so rad to just sit down and bing ding ping>>64619917Thank you for posting this, I had a lil FOMO for the GSD*a lie, I sighted this in last month
>>64620390It's worse than /arg/ unironically.
i shoot in my backyard
>>64620388>filtered by a few degreeslmao
>>64620283I own three and while I think they are good guns, the alternatives are way better.And after the shit they pulled off this year how can you trust them?
>>64620390Not even close. And it's literally just 3 or 4 faggots shitting it up maliciously. If you are intelligent enough to identify them you can see the remainder of /hg/ content is still by far the most cogent, earnest and engaged on /k/. It's just not as fast as shitposting generals. Don't be a mark for trolls.
>>64620390You can blame pastebin, he brought arg style shitposting here and caused some of their shitposters to come here. Normally we could get past it with more on topic posting but there hasn’t been any new personalities/namefags-all-but-in-name in here. It’s actually sad how much better this place was
>>64620405>the remainder of /hg/ content is still by far the most cogent, earnest and engaged on /k/no its not. when it isn't blatant shitposting its avatarfag drama. when its not that its someone trying to force a new popular opinion by stating it every thread. when it isn't THAT its simply unhelpful shooting advice.
>>64620418To be fair a few of the shitposters here went over there to go after him
>>64620421You're talking about the same handful of miscreants. Did you even read my post? I'm starting to think you're one of them, because there's always someone posting "/hg/ is the shittiest general" every thread or two and it sure doesn't seem organic.
>>64620364I can, it's just ridiculous to train away from the natural standard for no benefit
>>64620426>its ok that 80% of the posts are pure slop, the rest is good!i dont really think it is. I have never received useful information from this general.
Is leddit right about flatmaxxing? The idea where you try to make your gun shoot as flat as possible with comps, ports and other accessories
>>64620401>just train around it
>>64620437fuck off back to the sharty
>>64620431...are those wings? The fuck?
>>64620441It's either a gas pedal or some attachment that makes it easier to activate the light I think>>64620431It's not a bad idea, it just adds a ton of annoyance to maintaining your gun.
>>64620439>purfekshion
>>64620441Yes it's a folding wing.
>>64620431if you're gonna port, go all-in. tiny ports don't do shit.
>>64620425No.
>>64620451thats really gay but also a cool idea.
>>64620430Then you either haven't been here long or you're part of the problem by asking inane or bait questions. I've been here since the start and while the amount of good content is at an all time low thanks to interloping trolls, the core is as good as it has ever been.
>>64620460>we dindu nuffins its all pb
>>64620425Why would someone just lie like that? There are no /hg/ schizos.
>>64620390>even including /vg/ generals.Lol no. /lolg/ has blacked porn spammed in it endlessly and when that isn't happening they're arguing over tripfags, players on their team, Riot, or champ porn. /hg/ is a VERY good general compared to a lot of other ones.
>>64617651the top rail for the R8 is a meme, so is the bottom rail desu
>>64617651Why not get the proper red dot mount that replaces the top rail?
>>64620418You in specific started this shit.
>>64620501because its over a hundred dollars and a hi-viz front sight is honestly a better investment.
>>64620498>>64620501>you can remove rails from R8I'm not sure what to do with this knowledge, it still doesn't look any good.
>>64620512idk, for me it would be worth it but you do you. Have you had any qc issues at all with that gun?
>>64620512The fuckin RMR rail mount adapter from Trijewcon is already $70. Why wouldn't you pay a little more for a better solution?
>>64620431If I'm committed to a greater length of handgun, I'd rather just have a longer barrel.
>>64620394I see you have the selector rotated 180 degrees, is there a binary or auto reset trigger in there? Perhaps you merely installed a mil spec one for a safe/fire/safe configuration. I've never seen a carry handle to weaver rail adapter before, that's peculiar>sighted this in last monthIf there's elevation and windage adjustors on that 20mm[?] bode then they're not visible from that angle!>>64617714>>64617722>>64620418Oh
>>64617394The revolver doesn't have the fun click click lever.>>64617845> I've bought several guns in the past 12 months alone that I either had to send in for warranty repair or that I just couldn't be assed to get fixed and either returned them (buds lets you return stuff) or i sold them right away to Cabela's That's on you if any of them were 1911s or 2011s
>>64618586>>64618653>I’m also Czechhttps://youtu.be/HFCMNlrOfIEAs a burger, I never quite got it. I actually think it's cooler for Euros to be into that kind of thing. Just have fun, anon.
>>64620041This is actually extremely based. It's like me with my bicycle. I got a good mountain bike in 1996 and haven't done shit besides maintenance since. It even has the same plastic pedals. I literally can't imagine needing anything more.
>>64620587You knew exactly what you did yet you show no remorse, why is that?
I have a confession, I might a gen 6 and PA HTX1
>>64620283>Ay, who I'm is? Rubber band man, wild as the Taliban>9 in my right, 45 in myother hand.
I hav literally never notice the grip angle on a glock or the "snappy" recoil on a PPQ or PDP.I'm calling skill issues across the board.
>>64620703Did you really try hard to find miniscule differences between extremely similar guns to eek out 5 minutes of "content"?
I want to like the Gen6 but what they did here is just bullshit. This is not a Glock 17, this is a Glock 47 slide on a Glock 19X grip frame. What's worse is that they've reverted back to the Gen3 action spring and guide. Do you have any idea how shit those are? I had to replace mine with a 20-pounder just so that it can actually feel locked when the slide is forward>>64620648>no remorseI've already atoned for the past
>>64620179Why would that matter though? You aren’t building the revolver, you are an end user. Is gram gram gonna build the revolver or is she going to want a gun that you open up, put bullets in, and then pull the trigger? To check if it is loaded, you open the cylinder and look for cases.Semi autos have more steps to make ready and more steps to clear. If gram gram does the clearing steps in the wrong order, she can accidently up killing someone because there is a round in the chamber. Oops now the neighbor's kid, Little Timmy is dead because she racked the slide and then removed the magazine rather than the other way around when she tried disassemble her Glonk for cleaning.
>>64620283Hello Kitty squirted Glocks are the best
>>64620381I love how Walther went from a literal who brand for tac tards to a reddit/nigger guns.They have been objectively excellent since at LEAST 1929 with the first successful DA/SA in the PPK. The P99 was the original "Glock killer" and the PPS was the original micro 9mm.Anything to the contrary is uniformed or flat out ignorant cope. Prove what a retarded faggot you are by disagreeing. (I know you will.)
This is the 1967 model 36 with light strikes in double action.Emailed the shim guy. He thinks I should try a . 005" shim to lower end shake. I measured . 002 and . 008 forcing cone gap difference depending on how you push the cylinder. I wasn't thinking end shake in the first place. I was thinking of shimming the hammer pivot because the marks on the side plate suggest the sear pin is dragging.
I also want to try the 9lbs hammer spring. I already put in a new factory weight 8.5lbs spring and it feels exactly the same as the old one and did nothing.
>>64620779>>64620791Did you ever check out the firing pin bushing for excessive drag marks or any signs that it may be robbing energy before striking the primer? Does the firing pin move freely in and out of the firing pin bushing?
>>64620451Checks out
>>64620711No, if care to read my post again you will see that I do not notice much difference between the various plastic striker guns.
>>64620722I very much want you to know that Ben posting is basically equivalent to nip slut or PP anon posting.
>>64620791OEM spring should be more than enough. If you're still having problems it's something else.
>>64620779So you think the hammer pivot hole is "wallered" out? That's actually a pretty good though. Can you remove all spring tension and see if you can feel any play? If so, you might be able to replace the pivot pin, but that would require some kind of drill/mill work, but it's absolutely doable. I wish you lived near me because my work has a machine shop and I work for 2 hours after they leave.
>>64620918
>>64620994Thanks for self reporting.
>>64621021
>>64620520no mine works fine, it light strikes hard primer ammo in DA but thats the downside of tuned triggers.
>>64620722After what Glock did I dont know if I want to give them business.I have a 17, 19, and 26 in Gen 5 anyway.The only ones I'd buy are a Glock 40 10mm, 17L, or maybe a 45 thats optics ready (9mm)
>>64621064>After what Glock did there are hundreds of thousands of glocks available for you to buy to put an auto key in (you wont because you are terrified of the government). stop acting like what glock did was some mortal sin.

>>64621097
>>64620518It's not about looking good. I have 3 other revolvers that look good. This one is meant to have 8 rounds and kill things in the woods that im too lazy to carry a rifle for
>>64621214i think the R8 looks good, just not the new green one. the biggest issue with it is that you dont really grip a revolver like an automatic so you're never gonna be able to ergonomically access a light on the front of the gun, so the bottom rail is really only there for meme shit like bipods.imo the best part of the R8 is the scandium alloy mix they used for it. this thing is probably the handiest pistol i've ever owned.
>>64620441It's a spring loaded gas pedal that flaps down when you draw.
>>64620670The $650 one? Idk if I could stomach paying 150 more than an acro just to have it all American made, more power to you if you can though.
>>64621089I dont care about the switch faggot

I wish the coors can still had the liner and double vents.
>>64621876I hate how they put a logo on the mainspring housing. I feel it.
>>64616873So I won't hate myself for buying this hundred dollar handgun at my local sporting goods store?It won't blow up in my hand, as I would assume a hundred dollar handgun would?
>>64621924It won’t blow up. There’s tons of torture tests for hi-point, it’s robust and simple since it’s just blowback.
I just want to know if i can move my zev magwell over to the glong gen 6.
>>64621924It's safer than a P320.
>>64619662I have to find that video of a cop talking about traditional hood carry styles because everyone had an uncle Tyrone that shot himself in the leg because of some gun quirk. I thought it was hipoint related.
>>64617132I drive a fuel truck at night but I also raise catfish in my basement that I sell to local Popeyes restaurants.
>>64621985i'd bet a pretty penny on "no"
>>64620822>firing pin bushingI don't think that's an issue for this gun, but thank you for the idea. >>64620930But it works in single action, so a half pound might fix it? >>64620969I just think it's scraping the side plate in multiple places and slowing the hammer down and maybe shiming it would help. >Wallered outI didn't notice when I had it apart. I can check tonight. I can't mess with it right now. Have to get ready for work. Just catching up the thread while I wake up for another day in paradise, and by paradise I mean commuter hell.
>pastebin finds out all of the cool kids abide by Ben Steoeger>suddenly he’s a Stoegerite tookinda pathetic 3bh, but maybe it’ll improve his dire shooting
>>64617181I'm cross eye dominant, rifle are a bit complicated to use for me. But pistol it feel more natural to me.
>>64622283That would require pastebin to actually buy and shoot a decent volume of ammo instead of being terminally online hopping between here and /arg/
>>64621502What was that brand of gun bluing you used on the 1903?>Cycle a Mauser fast enough and they’ll think it’s a semi auto and flee the rangeWasn't that likely an apocryphal story originally about the Lee Enfield?

>>64622272nta but the firing pin bushing is the hole it goes through not on the firing pin itself lol

Here's a better angle demonstrating how Ben Stoeger grips a Glock. Notice how his left index finger is inline with his right middle with the rest staggered between knuckles. This grip both maximizes purchase and has your digits function as a structural abutment where they meet the trigger guard>>64622539If you say so, my only real complaint about AZ is the yearly fire restrictions.

>>64622379I believe in sgt.
>>64623515FMJ or even better hardcast, depending on which bear but they’re not invincible killing machines
>>646235159mm works just use Solids. If you can hit them in the head, you could probably make due with a Buffalo Bore 380+P, 38 special+P, or 32H&R

>>64620431
>>64620670Saw the hop video?I kind of want to do the same thing now desu.Looks like a clean setup.
>>64623515Black bear country, 9mm.Grizzly, 10mm or .45 super.Both of which using heavy for caliber, solid bullets.
>>64623819Is heavy for caliber actually the best for penetration? In 9mm, don't 124 grain bullets penetrate the deepest?
>>64620454Maybe I'm just misunderstanding things but wouldn't porting this aggressive massively reduce your fps? I can't imagine venting that much gas behind the bullet would help. Is this more of a competition thing were actual lethality means nothing?
>>64620441I think the purpose is to rest your support hand's thumb on them to better be able to push down the gun during recoil.But i've never shot those so idk
>>64620901I've always (kek) wondered if those wings actually did anything or if it was just marketing. 2B doesn't get a period so I can't ask her.
>>64623902It reduces it, yeah, but like, 5% max? It's not even enough to make the bullet subsonic and even if it would you'd still be plenty lethal for engagement ranges where pistols are used.Comps are fine. They make your gun super loud tho which is the bigger issue imo
>>64622272Jesus christoph, anon. This is a blue board!
>>64623332>>64623336He was an idiot who absolutely could not resist bait. People started intentionally fucking with him for the lulz and he would spaz out and ruin a thread.
>>64623922ty. It's always been one of those little questions that bug me every time I see porting. Here's B&N Emily as way of thanking you.
>>64623933Oh, like you’re doing now?
>>64623943Why are you posting some roastie who’s thirst trapping while she’s married? Imagine your wife thirst trapping on X
>>64623902It can’t since a limited amount of pressure can vent out of the ports at one time based on the size of the ports, there is pressure reduction but not enough to drastically change velocity. Velocity still will increase the longer the barrel despite ports down the length of the barrel.
>>64623954You okay?
>>64623968I've got a G27 and I've considered grabbing an aftermarket ported barrel. .40 in such a small frame is very snappy. I don't want to lose any performance though since it's my bear gun.
>>64624000You’re posting some mid roastie who’s a married woman thirst trapping>>64624012Those extended barrels aren’t super effective but are better than nothing and due to being an extended barrel there is a slight velocity increase. I’m talking about an extended and ported barsto barrel for instance. The port cuts aren’t super effective. I think EFK dragonfire has larger ports but I don’t know if they do G27s
>>64623852YesNoThere are outliers depending on medium but for heavy animals and bone you definitely want heavy grain.
>>64623943>implying that wouldn't make me like her more
>>64623852Heavier projectiles is always better since they retain energy better while in medium and deflect less (they travel straighter).
>>64623943Whoa bros, imagine she lifts down the waistine of her skirt to reveal that she's strapped and then she plugs you.
>>64623341Just because you think about gay sex all the time doesn't mean everyone else does.>>64623933But that doesn't explain the "paste bin" thing. That is a very useful website. A lot of other threads I frequent use it to good effect.
>>64624252Ppanon at length has discussed his usage of Grindr, his fag preferences, how he needs to take prep to not get aids, and has posted gay porn in these threads. And that’s not the worst he’s done “Pastebin” is the name of a poster from arg who tried colonizing here about a year ago, he shitposted relentlessly for about 8 months (January to August) trying to push out all the other personalities and drowned out on topic discussion, only stopping when he was outed as “pastebin”. We called him Glock troon before that.
>>64623852The major drawbacks of heavy for caliber bullets are velocity and, by extension, range. Since pistol calibers rely on energy retention in the target, weight is theoretically better, but that's how we ended up with 10mm and .40 S&W, which, like basically all pistol calibers, are pretty mid in the grand scheme of thing.Also, 10mm is the new .45, but which I mean>muh stopping power Don't get me wrong, I like both, but you can practically replace the boomer lore of>If you hit a man square in the chest with a .45, it'll blow him at least 6 feet back.With 10mm pretty easily. Oh, another thing that I really like about heavy for caliber bullets is that the recoil impulse feels better pretty much every time. 147 gr 9mm feels a bit more like 230 gr from a 5" 1911, which, all gun related issues aside, is a really nice shooting experience. The opposite of that would be 125 gr .357 SIG or .357 Magnum, for that matter.There is are diminishing returns once you get into the world of moving heavy bullets as fast as possible, but guys like Big Bore Anon, get a lot of enjoyment out of that, so like, it's OK for people to like different things.
>>64624278Thanks.I definitely know who PP anon is if only because of the whaling and gnashing of teeth every time he posts, kek. I don't really appreciate the faggot blog posting, but he does have some neat guns and occasionally posting some interesting on topic stuff. Even if some of it is twink lore.>Buffalo Bore hard cast .32 acp is based. 32 magnum.>Pastebin>Glock troonIs that the guy with the Roland Special that constantly shit talks everything all the time?I guess I don't visit this thread often enough to really know.Anyways, the main problem is that there are easily identifiable personalities in the first place.
>>64623943>>64623954I literally that that was a troon. Like, I see that face and think, that's literally a man dressed like a girl.
>>64624000Well, that the funniest thing I've seen all day and it's a total boomer tier meme.Thanks, anon.
>>64624339His name was glocktroon since he would spam the thread with his gen 3 Glock that is almost if not entirely stock as if it gave him license to be the center of the universe while butting into every single conversation in the thread with irrelevant input which is a tactic to prevent being banned for off topic. Basically talking to a wall or a bot.He would post police activity videos and play water cooler quarterback despite never training any sort of practical shooting like retention/holster, rapid fire, or the use of a red dot which puts him at odds with other shooters in the thread
>>64621502did you make the jacket/overshirt alterations or buy it that way
>>64623943Interesting how that niggers first thought is about committing violence on an unsuspecting person, in a safe mundane environment.
>>64624353>practical shooting like retention/holster, rapid fire, or the use of a red dot There is more to owning a handgun than what the guntube/training instruction shills would have you believe. It's perfectly fine to only own a .22 target pistol and keep it unloaded in a safe or an old revolver or milsurp and do the same.This isn't to defend an annoying poster, but just to serve as a reminder that people own different guns and use them in different way for different reasons. I have a lot of different guns for a lot of different reasons. I have plastic stuff for TCB, and many more for theirs history or simply because they are fun to shoot.
