How’re you holding up, boss?Let’s have a poorfag thread. I want to see your budget blasters and the interiors of your shitty dwellings.
Not a poor fag but on medical leave and draining my retirement does that count?
>>64820610That charter arms is a beaut, you get a pass.
>>64820610Unless you have an atrium, those rocks aren't your interiors
>>64820553>and the interiors of your shitty dwellingsno thank you.please enjoy some grimy gamer mousemat instead.
>>64820553Poor
>>64820696
>>64820553[spolier]https://www.dahlonegaarmory.com/product/blu-bl-18-pump-12m18.5cb-syn[/spoiler]Zero excuses, poorfags. It is a Chinese knockoff of an 870. Can take most 870 parts as well. Only thing it can't take are 870 barrels since they changed it for reasons.
>>64820553Mav88 was the first gun I bought myself when I was a young poorfag, good on you
>>64820990
>>64820610My biggest fear right now is my lower back finally going out and not being able to work. I need to work for insurance but I cant work if im in excruciating pain. It just isn't fair:(
My roommates and I kept this Maverick 88 Security in our bathroom as the apartment suicide gun.
>>64821103How thoughtful, though the shower would be a better location to Cobain yourself, unless you wanna combine Cobain and Elvis into one death
Poor. Supporting recent ex drained all my savings. Live and learn. Want to sell the Kahr and it would be at a loss after all the CA fees and taxes. I'd buy some silver or pay off a credit card.
>>64821123Based M&P 45 owner
>>64821123I too carry Hornady FlexLock®
>>64821097That sucks, I'm dealing with ITP right now, immune-induced low platelets, I had to get 3x blood and 3x platelet transfusions during a week stay in the hospital.
>>64821152I got the Apex kit, Floyd flared base and mag extension, some plastic buffer thing, extended mag release, and some kind of replacement thing in the striker channel that prevents water from getting caught in the striker channel. I love this thing.>>64821152I keep the main mag loaded with Winchester Ranger PDX. Other mag in the nightstand has the Hornady.
>>64821152My Kahr has Federal HST 147gr. I know this plastic thing probably doesn't do shit, but I don't care. Supposed to reduce ware I think.
>>64820553Is this poor enough? This used to be my carry piece before i decided to stop using drugs and get a jobIt's chambered in ordinary .38. It's cool because you can fire both barrels at once, handy if you wanna mcnutt yourself because you live in a tent.Only use it ever saw apart from a possible suicide apparatus was firing at a tweaker trying to surprise me when i was fishing, but he ran away so i don't know if i even hit him or not.
>>64821212>main mag loaded with Winchester Ranger PDXHaven't used them before but I heard those deliver barrier-blind performance>>64821221>Kahr has Federal HST 147grNice, been in the market for some HST myself. Hoping to find +P 124gr at Sportsman's Warehouse if not something bonded>Supposed to reduce wareCouldn't hurt, that's for sure!
dont be misled by the high power,its a cheapo where i live
>>64821035Hows the poorfag sword im tempted to get one everytime its on sale on amazon but i feel like its going to be an unbalanced swordshaped object. Can you hit things with it? If it can slash a cardboard box without breaking thats all i need.
>>64821384I like the weight, its pretty fun to swing around I would slash cardboard with it but not much else, it is not hardened
>>64820553That's like a 300 dollar Tracker knife, made by TOPs I know I have one. I got it when I did Tom Browns school.Not exactly poor fag.
>>64820553How comfy are those top folders?
>>64820613Ugliest gun in the thread
>>64821230I kind of like it.
>>64821504'80s comfy. So not.
>>64821504Awful
>>64821492One of the hallmarks of poors is poor purchasing decisions
>>64821546>One of the hallmarks of poors is poor purchasing decisions>5 PSA ARs, 4 CaniksAnd making them over and over.
>>64820553This thread reminds me how dumb I was/am in my gun approach. Buying a Mav88 with a folding stock and a used G19 with threaded barrel for less than 1 grand the pack would've been enough for years. All in all, I still have more money than sense.
>>64821556Based but oof
>>64821508That's subjective
>>64822101Flavored whiskey and dollar store glass? Well, this is a poor fag thread.
>>64822170It's a Glenmorangie branded glass. I really like Nectar d'Or.I generally dont do flovered whiskey or bourbon, but that was some tasty stuff. Not artificially sweet, not really sweet at all. The apple was extremely mild and on the back end.If you really want to poorfag, Evan Williams BiB is quite good at its price point. Early Times BiB is absolutely smooth AF and solid at $26 p/L if you can find it.
>>64822433>DeadpoolHey mexican
I'm poor and need armor what's the shot
>>64821508Choose your words carefully, big guy. This is my dark sapphire you're talking about here
>>64820553I honestly really want an 88. I got my 590 on sale a while back for $400 and I’ve been pretty happy with it. I just want a beater 88 with the 18.5 inch barrel instead of the 590’s long ass 20 inch barrel. It would make a fun truck gun.
>>64821103>doesn’t have a suicide .22 revolverNgmi
>>64821230BASED. Reminds me of the chuckie cheese defender
My three cheapies. Wish I would have avoided the top two and just gotten a full size. Compact pistols aren’t that great. Barely small enough to CC but too small to perform great.
>>64821492I'm poor as shit, have a few utility knives for work (wildland firefighter) I've bought from forums for basically pennies. Being poor doesn't mean to have shit gear, I make $18/hr with a masters degree as a supervisor, it just means you have to be more thrifty and save for nice purchases.
>>64822701>I make $18/hr>with a masters
>>64822483Go to flea markets in the hopes of finding some cheap kevlar or surplus plates, wait for sportsmans guide to get some functional surp. Cheap armor is about finding deals and jumping on them.
>>64822711I make $51.96 per hour with a bullshit 2 year degree that my employer paid me to get, but they hired me with a high school degree. My actual workload is less than 8 hours per week usually, with the rest of my time being spent reading books on my phone and bullshitting with other people in the building. My brother makes $400k a year with a MBA and apparently spends most of his time day drinking and playing golf. He doesn't read a lot of books, but he drinks expensive whiskey much more frequently than I do and what's more, he does it on the clock.Before you laugh at a guy for what he does for a living, remember that someone else is laughing at you for what you do for a living, and also remember that what you're doing for a living is fine, if that's what you want to do. It's all relative.
I'm unemployed now since I quit my job that paid decent cus I hated it and wants to build houses but no one is looking for year one apprentice in the middle of winter
>>64822543anyone who can't admit glocks gen 3 - 5 are stunning firearms are contrarian faggot pieces of retarded little shit who watch way too much John Whick.
>>64822577IF YOU 'REALLY WANT AN 88' JUST BUY IT YOU FUCKING FAGGOT PIECE OF SHIT, THEY'RE PRACTICALLY FREE!!!!! BITCH!!!!!!
>>64822987I ended up going with an MBA instead of law school and I regret nothing. I too get to work out and drink on the clock, and get overpaid to babysit an accounting department.
>>64823501I’ve been close. I see them on sale for like $270 with a free long barrel. But my budget is so tight right now. Working 2 jobs and going to school, also married and trying to get new furniture and planning a honeymoon. So every dollar is scrutinized right now. I barely make it out to the range let alone buy new guns I don’t even need.
>>64823506Kek I’m working on my accounting degree right now. It may have its downsides in the future but it’s a helluva lot better than the wagie security job I have now.
>>64822701>it just means you have to be more thrifty and save for nice purchases.True. I make $100k and still shop thrift stores for clothing. The pity is $100k isn't alot.
/pfg/>>64820553Nice kitchen.>>64820613Nice dining room.>>64821103Nice bathroom. If you fags are poor, at least you aren't slobs. I've seen poeple who make money and live like total pigs.Dignity is it's own wealth.
>>64820654Is that a monstrum nitro?How well does that thing hold a zero when it's being actively used, carried, etc?
>>64823772Absolutely. There’s a lot of dignity that can be had living simple. There’s a difference between trashy poor and living poor until your next break.
>>64822101Nigga clean your peripherals. Disgusting.
>>64823496>glovefagOpinion discarded
>>64823496>>64823772Cheers
>>64823496you started welding yet?
>>64822711Yeah welcome to forestry. The regional lead makes $21/hr. All the seasonal firefighters on my team make $16/hr.Remember that the next time you see a major fire in the West (except California they make bank) that the majority of the full time personnel are making between $17 and $23 per hour depending on COLA for their respective region.
>>64824304>$17 and $23 per hourOh, you can make the big bucks.
>>64824304Brutal man, I had no idea you guys make so damn little. I was a vol fire fighter locally and feel like I got as much free shit I probably made more.Stay safe Anon, when you say COLA do you mean like BAH in the mil or like inflation normal wagie COLA?
>>64823634well good luck, I'm sure you'll be able to set aside enough for it soon. i might buy one too now that I've seen the folding stock options available here. >>64824223i told you I'm not risking my lungs with that garbage, so you can just forget about it. shooting already causes enough damage.
>>64824449>risking my lungsFag.
>>64824449>waah I wanna live for as long as possibleI'll take 2 shots then, one for me and one to forget you exist
>>64824527do me a fuckin favor, chase it down with 160mg oxy too.
>>64824568Why are you so toxic, man?
>>64824572it's just my way.
>>64824343Are these the guys that got incinerated trying to fight a grass fire lol
>>64823795actually yeah, it's the nitro+.i can't comment on carry, but i don't have any complaints. seems fine, werks. dot is sharp and gets bright, top-loading battery, and i thought i wouldn't care about the little cut for the rear irons to cowitness, but it's nice to have, feels like it helps acquisition.
>>64824577Then you are an ass. Pity.
>>64824634How many rounds have you put through the pistol since mounting it? Any loss of zero?
>>64824603>it was a wildfireThier wives cleaned up really nicely.
My humble arsenal. Old pic but the only thing changed is the grip on the AR, it's now got a more vertical B5 that matches the stock. I'm embarrassed at how long it's been since I went shooting and I really need to get that AR back out because I had some issues with it the only time it's been to the range, not going fully into battery occasionally, I think maybe just because I hadn't cleaned the factory oils out thoroughly but I really need to make sure. (It does feel much smoother and chambers cartridges much more easily after a deep clean.)
>>64824659maybe just about 100 rounds? i don't get out to shoot all that much, sorry. i haven't noticed any shift in that time fwiw, but i do understand that's basically nothing. again, no complaints.
>>64822711>>64824304fucking hell, I thought ~$30/hr starting with an AAS was bad. I'm in an area where houses average $700k, rent on a midlevel apartment is $1,500 and a burger is $20 so pay has to be a little higher than other places, but that still probably scales a lot better than $21 does anywhere in America.
>>64824656NOT MY PROBLEM!!!!!
>>64824697>a burger is $20Lrn2cook. I almost never eat out. Maybe taco Tuesdays. Admittedly, I am in /pfg/.
>>64824718No. You are the problem. As you develop, you will see that. Until you do grow, that will remain a mystery and your soul will remain in torment.
>>64824724>Lrn2cook.Oh yeah way ahead of you on that, I'm pretty decent at certain cooking too. (Better than 90% of people our age anyway.) I eat out maybe once a week and it's usually some kind of discounted thing, my town gets a lot of tourism and places are oriented toward that but many have midweek locals nights or whatever. I just mentioned the $20 burgers to show the CoL in the area.
>>64824768>my town gets a lot of tourismYes, mine too and they over charge to rake the dumb tourists. My taco shop is the next town over. I ma go if I am combining trips, never a dedicated taco run. Cooking pintos now.
>>64824747there's literally no reason to try being a good person to 99% of the shitskin retards who have infested this country, this website, and this board. nothing but a waste of time.
I have like 50 guns, but my Mosin's still my favorite. Currently sitting on top of a mountain with it. I have one bar up here.
>>64824840Yet, when you respond to that, you become the object of your resentment.>>64825091> I drove and walked 40yrds!Nicely done.
>>6482510940 yards more than you walked today, fatty
>>64825109>>64825120I actually did have a whole day of hiking planned, I was gonna do some STALKER shit down a logging road that I think has some old tractors and shit at the end of it, but some faggot parked his truck and a bigass trailer at the trailhead and I couldn't park anywhere, so I went down a different logging road that ended up deadending up here. Then I jacked off.
>>64820553Poorfag here, Not well Still mourning the loss of affordable 7.62x39 and the end of the glory era of police trade in Glock 19s. pretty much the only thing I've been shooting the past couple years is 9mm, fudd shotguns and rimfire. I hate it bros
>>64824683That's a respectable collection. yeah definitely get that AR checked out, no reason a midlength 16" should have cycling issues.
>>64825120I did a mile this morning, wolverine.
>>64820696This is deluxe gear for mobik.
>>64820696Aks arent poor anymore
>>64821492I spend wisely and keep what I have.
>>64825266What flavor of Marlboros are those?
>>64825294The cbd kind. You a cop? You HAVE to tell me if you’re a cop.
>>64825302No. Plus, I would never lie. I mean, cops never lie.
>>64825314*puff puff* he can stay, he seems cool.
>>64820553Howdy fellas, I'm from a certain country in the southern part of the world. Guns and ammo are twice as expensive in the US, so we adapted in order to survive as gun owners.I just got back from the range, today was a fun day, got to enjoy my .22lr rifle.
>>64825392I just carted an Umarex Notos .22 carbine in Amazon. Coupla hun.
I'm saving up for a .22 rifle in a few months. Any suggestions or should I just go for a 10/22?I want to get a Mossberg or maybe a used Ithaca 37 (-$500) within the next year, too.I'd get some kind of AR eventually but I live in a gay ban state.
>>64825445dont get the mossberg22 its a piece of shit. if you can swing it you should get a leveraction 22 but considering you have to save up for a 10/22 its probably way out of your price range.
>>64825392can't imagine center-fire prices, especially these days. Just be mindful of the humidity down there. enjoy anon.
>>64825445I own a Savage 64f, it's a neat rifle, just get the all steel upper, NOT THE ONE WITH THE CAP!Another budget option might be the Rossi .22lr>>64825411nice
>>64825445>Any suggestionsFor decades the 10/22 stole the thunder of the Marlin M60. If I could find one in SS and a tube feed, I would gladly buy that. Around 1995 they were peak, from what I saw and handled.
>>64820610I feel you brother. I'm having some weird headaches followed by my sight getting blurry, it's probably an aneurysm but I'm tired of being sick so I'm just waiting for it to burst and kill me.
>>64825517Probably just a tumor.
>>64825266That's cool anon did you take any of his classes?
>>64822483New infograph just dropped.
Pretending to be a cowboy or depression era farmer helps me cope. I practice my draw and dry fire a lot.
>>64822687Based Bersafren. My Bersa was my first gun. I’m hoping to get a TX-22 this year. I haven’t bought a gun in almost 2 years
>>64822687How’s the Bersa holster working for you? Which of those prints the least?
>>64825091Looks comfy up there. You in a National Forest?
>>64825514>For decades the 10/22 stole the thunder of the Marlin M60ruger had the name but marlin outsold the fuck out of it.its not a good idea to buy marlin now since ruger bought an killed the competition. marlin 22s have plastic parts that degrade and disintgrate with time. which wasnt a big deal when the parts were still being made. even if you found an unused like new 2000s era marlin 60 its going to have issues and need replacement parts. parts that are now retardedly expensive. you used to be able to get every factory spring and buffer for under 20 now you are looking at 20 per spring made by some random. the current mag prices on the magfeds are fuckin insane.
Bersa? Bersa!
>>64822483POOR poor?https://youtu.be/Ny7fXBZS6Bk
>>64820613Grim
>>64825517that might be migraines with aura, does light make it worse?
>>64823506Is a Masters still worth it? I keep being told to go into law school because of my Poli. Sci degree (I got social studies and history autism instead of math and science) and my memory but it doesn’t seem worth the squeeze. I’d prefer going into a Masters in Public Administration but I have zero full time job experience and really need to establish myself in the workforce and get some actual income going since I’m in my mid-20s.
>>64825713My undergrad is in history because I also intended to go into law. Start working in oil and gas, loved the money and especially the lifestyle, so got an MBA. I make great money and don't work insane lawyer hours.Tbh, I'm a vet so my degrees were free. If I had to pay for it, I'd still do it though, one of the best career moves I've made.
>>64825649oh
>>64825581State DNR land
>>64825527I hope not>>64825662I don't think so, they're kinda random but the pain always come from the same spot. But I noticed they're more frequent if I get stressed.
>>64825571It was the first gun I ordered online. Wanted to test the online system on something cheap. The slide grinds for I reason but I really like it. Shoots pretty well too.
>>64825574Bersa holster is just a generic Muddy River holster. It’s pretty comfy and conceals decent. The LCP is definitely my primary carry 99% of the time. I carry back pocket like an extra wallet and pretty much forget it’s there. I’ve passed through many security pat downs to get into bars and clubs with it. I can’t recommend it enough.
vrpa40 is top-tier turkshit shotgun. Got 1,200 shells through mine.
>>64825571>>64825857Also, are you me? Wrangler, Bersa, and an iron sight AR?? Literally my collection.
>>64825862I just hate pump actions with detachable box mags. I know there's no reason why they can't be a thing but they always make me sick when I look at them
>>64825877how about a drum?
>>64825894Belt fed, take it or leave it
>>64825877For me, it's the vestigial tube. Most box mag shotguns still have the tube mag hanging around for the purpose of parts compatibility, while it no longer functions as a mag, which just looks wrong.There are a few box mag pumps without tubes, they look a lot better.If there were a dual feed shotgun that could use the tube after the box mag runs out, that would be neat, but still ugly, and too complicated.
>>64825877>there's no reason why they can't be a thingThe reason is that it's annoying to have to load a mag right before use at a range and impractical to leave them unloaded for home defense, because banana mags eventually compress the plastic shells and fuck with feeding if left loaded for any period. I could just be uninformed, but I've yet to see a box mag for a shotgun that doesn't have this issue.
>>64825936>because banana mags eventually compress the plastic shells and fuck with feeding if left loaded for any period. I could just be uninformed, but I've yet to see a box mag for a shotgun that doesn't have this issue.This is urban legend. While it's a reported issue with birdshot, it is not a problem at all with buckshot or slug-loaded magazines. I've left some of mine loaded for more than a year with no issues.
>>64825905Thats actually a great idea holy shit
>>64825905>>64825965I like that a lot actually. Run the belt to a backpack so you have about 200-300 shells at the ready. Spreader choke so the pellets fan out in a horizontal line. 200mW dazzler like the LA-12 GLIS mounted on the 12 o clock to blind the enemy. Brutal crowd control weapon.
>>64825975Either that or punt gun and take out flocks at a time
>>64825874Not the second dude you mentioned but yeah, and we could become complete twinsies :3. Just buy yourself a Tisas 1911
>>64825754I had no idea state DNR areas allowed guns on them too, interesting. Can you target shoot?
>>64825743>My undergrad is in history because I also intended to go into law. Sometimes I feel like I’m the only one here with an undergraduate meme degree, thanks for the info. You sound like a cool guy. What exactly did you like about working in oil & gas?Seems pretty rough unless you’re high up, did you get decent time off?
>>64825091Can we get some more outdoors pics with your Mosin anon? I haven't had a chance to go outdoors this season yet and I need to see some /out/+/k/ino to get my fix
>>64820553Picked up another one of these rough riders they are a lot of fun for the price. I am slowly becoming a C&Rfag but saw one last year in a store and got it for my daughter, figured a second one was warranted. Not my domicile but I basically live in this shithole so judge my shop. t.safetyofffingerontriggerglovepicfanclubfag
>>64826226I worked in the field because covid killed my college job (bartender at a brewery) so I worked in the plant for about a year. By that point, I had a degree and plant experience,so I landed a white collar job for one of the larger plant service companies. Got laid off, got an even better job the same day.I like that the field pays very well, and its results oriented in my experience. If things are going well, they never expect me to spend every moment in the office, I only go in for about 4 hours a day, and a lot of us go drinking on the company dime. Our new office is going to have a bar, gym, and hospitality suite, a lot of stuff that would get you strung up by HR in other fields are fine in oil and gas.
>>64824683What is the shotgun?
>>64826549not him but looks like a Benelli Nova
>>64826571Oh thats gayer than i was hoping
>>64826268>I haven't had a chance to go outdoors this seasonIt's February. You had all of January and that's a long month. What hope do you have for 28 days?
>>64826396>saw one last year in a store and got it for my daughterBased Dad
>>64826534>a lot of us go drinking on the company dime. Our new office is going to have a bar, gym, and hospitality suite, a lot of stuff that would get you strung up by HR in other fields are fine in oil and gasTopkek. Are white collar jobs not as high strung and full of office politics in your industry? Does a degree even somewhat useful let you move up? I’ve been wanting to go into local or state government work but it sounds like you got a good gig
>>64825754Washington?
>>64824656Why so upset? Grow up.
>>64826205I honestly been tempted. I always thought they were trash because the low price was so suspicious. But my friend got one and it felt pretty okay. Maybe some day
>>64827006They're already hiking the price on them. Not werf anymore.(nta)
>>64826396Wranglers and rough riders are honestly the most fun I’ve had with guns. It’s just plain fun to cowboy larp and plink with a single action .22.
$125 and zero complaints
>>64827026
>>64827053Brother give that canon a spit shine please
>>64826987>boohoo, don't judge me!
>>64822987>Before you laugh at a guy for what he does for a living, remember that someone else is laughing at you for what you do for a living, and also remember that what you're doing for a living is fine, if that's what you want to do. It's all relativeDamn, thats some insightful ass shit
>>64822987I never laugh at anyone with a job. If you make your own money, accept no handouts, and support yourself, you’re okay in my book.
>>64827082It’s anti-semitic that’s what it is
>>64827006They’re not trash. It’s good enough and just werks if you wanna scratch the 1911 itch. American brands have excelled at overpricing their 1911s for gullible boomers to buy. I say this as a neo-fudd
>>64827082>insightful ass shitKinda word, but it's been suggested before.>If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.>Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.>t. Desiderata
>>64825375>the single woman home owner tool kitI didn't know that came in colors other an pink
>>64827006i have one and have just over 2k rounds through it, never really had any issues with itpurposefully ran it without cleaning it or oiling it after cleaning it at 1k rounds and it made it about 500 rounds before it was failing to fully seat a round and it was just because so much gunk built up on the feed ramp and slide rails it wasn't smooth and i was also using the cheapest ammo i could findthey arent as reliable as a high end 1911 but as long as you arent going 500 rounds with the cheapest ammo you can find without even wiping it off, itll be good
>>64827143>coming to a poorfag thread to judge Gtfo faggot. Not everyone needs expensive tools. Most people just need exactly what OP has. A basic affordable tool kit with an arrangement of basic tools for small repairs around the house. Not everyone needs to drop thousand of dollars in Milwaukee tool sets.
>>64820696This is the exact load out all my henchmen would have if I were a Bond villan or petty warlord.Very nice.>>64820990This isnthe most wrong and retarded meme I have seen all day. I have a WASR 10 that eats literally anything. And a G-19 that will do the same.Why do all /k/ jannies suck gay shit cover Ukrainian cocks? I mean, they REEEEEEEEAAAALLLLY get ass blasted when you point out how retarded and gay Ukraine is and how they are going to lose territory AND national sovereignty.
>>64825171Yeah, I really need to go shoot it again, just had shockingly little free time in the last few months. It seems like less of a cycling issue than an actual chamber one, The rounds would get stuck like 1/8" short of fully seated and I'd have to mortar it to get them out. I think maybe it was maybe a combo of shitty ammo and some dried factory gunk in the chamber, it happened with multiple brands so it wasn't JUST the ammo but it was always noticeably sluggish to chamber before cleaning and now it feels smooth. Annoyingly I don't have a receipt either, usually I get them emailed by Sportsmans so I wasn't careful with the printed one but the gun counter guy forgot to put my rewards number in. Hopefully S&W will still help me out if the gun does still have trouble, otherwise I think I'm just gonna have to buy another upper. >>64826549>>64826571 got it right, basic Nova Tactical.

>>64826968Its a lot more chill. My wife works in a specialty medical field and they are constantly in fear of legal repercussions, meanwhile I barely do anything and make 30k more. One of the reasons I went MBA is because I asked a bunch of successful people I knew through the cigar club and my rugby club if I should do it, and they all had high opinions of the MBA and either had one themselves or had something adjacent like a masters in management. It has a lot of recognition and everyone knows what it is, and doesn't pigeon hole you to any one particular field.

>>64827302I wasnt talking about the shield, the tool kit on the counter behind it
>>64827330Basically I wanted to get a .22 Mag cylinder, and I got a green one so I wouldn't get it mixed up with the .22LR one, and then I was playing Cyberpunk at the time and I thought "It'd be cool if I put garish colors and lasers and shit all over it, it'd look like a janky gangoon street blaster" and then it ended up looking like a stupid piece of shit but I thought it was funny so I kept it

>>64827351i wouldnt mount the sling on that light, its probably going to rip itself off the raili would just cut off its existing loop, tie it off after running it through the existing sling on the FSB and then just tuck it underneath the light and zip tie it down and then electical tape it up so the knot is more securei have that same exact light i think and the rail mount isnt secure enough to handle 12 gauge recoil, if you secure it better you can use the sling to secure around your arm and put pressure on it when shooting to make it more secure
>>64827384Sling's mounted on a sling mount next to the light, not on it
>>64827394should be good thenonly other thing i would do is lightly dremel/file down the other end of that light mount because that tiny lip it has isnt big enough to secure a zip tie on and zip tie the other end down so its more secureive seen a lot worse setups than that, yours is very funtional, its just the amazon basics light needing a bit more modding being the only real problem
>>64827279I'm from and reside in Texas
>>64827236I will, but I'm 99% sure it was an issue with the chamber itself, I don't see how the gas system could cause an unfired round to get jammed solid 80% into the chamber. Either there was something in there or S&W fucked up the tolerances.
>>64827438>rugby clubDidn't know that was a thing here. Cool

If you are a man that grew out of playing video games in his teenage years then you should know you acquire tools over time as the need to repair and take on projects over the years expands.

I remember when I bought my first jack and jack stands it wiped me out financially and the Craftsman 200 piece socket and wrench set was the best Christmas gift I ever got. I use most of it to this day. I can't let anyone shame a DIY Chad without reproach. We are all doing the best we can and that guy is doing better than a lot of folks. I mean, fuck, simply owning a weapon and some hand tools puts him way ahead of most "people" on /a/.This is weapons related because I use the word weapon.
>>64827966>Craftsman 200 piece socket and wrench setI still have mine, bought with my first paycheck 2004.
>>64827464Check if the barrel extension is clocked and that the feed ramps actually line up. If the bolt is hitting the lugs before closing that's bad. It shouldn't do that. If it got smoother cause it wore the parts and now it's not hitting that's still not good.
>>64827908Don't knock basic bitch shitI bought this screwdriver set at a Walmart on a whim like 5 years ago and it's the most useful thing I ownAs long as it's not Harbor Freight shit that you can bend with your bare hands, it's fine

>>64822589If there's such thing as a cursed artifact in real life that's it.
>>64829334I hate this, but I can't put my finger on why
>>64828131I don't think that's what's happening either, like I said in a previous post the cartridges were actually jamming in the chamber, enough that I had to mortar them out. Getting smoother happened immediately after a really thorough clean and lube, which I should've done before the first range day. I really think it may just have been that there was some kind of dried out factory gunk in there (shipping oil or whatever) that was having a tolerance stacking issue with the cheap ammo I was using.
>>64829334>poorfag>SBRI guess that's something we're gonna have to get used to now that tax stamps are free.
Once I get a maverick 88 I can complete the poorfag ensemble. The CZ is my daily carry and has about 1200 rounds through it but its probably my least favorite to shoot, wish I got a USP in .40 or something but that's probably the next gun I'm getting anyways.

>>64831128Man that's a really unflattering videoI'm sure you look fine in real life, but that video taken with the cell phone leaning on a rock, and your kinda shitty, awkward, self-conscious stance, and the poir image quality making your probably-normal outfit look like a retarded teenager trying to make a cosplay with Walmart store brand clothes and a $30 budget, all combine to give you major tardvibes in this videoHere's my tard video so I'm not just being mean to a random anon for no reason

>>64832033>cheap guitarCould you please get someone famous to autograph your guitar, please? Doesn't have to be a musician.
>>64832039It's a WESCO MK IV. It's literally the worst gun I've ever shot. It's a .45ACP Sten with a Thompson buttstock, and the mags are M3 mags that have been cut out with a dremel tool. There's a big hunk of rubber inside the receiver that acts as a buffer. It needs about 50 pounds of force to pull back the charging handle, and every time it jams (once every 3 rounds) you have to hold this heavy ass bolt back with one hand and dig the round out with your fingers. One time it stovepiped and cut the brass in half. I love it.

>>64824351Just normal inflation and general housing adjustments. For example some of the guys in Jackson (you know, WEF playground town, WY) make $25/hr but they're all crammed in stupidly expensive rentals. Anybody not from places like Jackson, Missoula, Bozeman, Spokane, Kalispell, etc is at best making $21/hr. One of our trucks is from the 70s and we've had multiple budget plans rejected to purchase anything that doesn't spend 70% of the time being repaired. Some seasonals get housing but it's just living in a ranger station or wherever will take them. Permanent staff are on their own generally and don't get to sit around their respective fire district station 24/7 unlike your average city/town firefighter

>>64833029To make matters worse there's a good chance if things don't turn around with our record low snowpack in the Rockies and Cascades that we are in for the worst fire season in decades. Additionally, a lot of people trained to assist in responding to fires but who aren't direct fire personnel (red card holders) were fired en masse by DOGE and never rehired. All those forest jammies who literally cleaned up campgrounds, did trail maintenance, or worked as full time or temporary scientists and technicians were largely part of our normal fire response planning.Now they're gone, new budget means none were rehired. After the government shutdown many more didn't bother coming back due to the instability. Very exciting!

>>64834118I mean like how do you actually use it? Do you bring your gun in closer to your face? Do you hold it at arms length like usual? I never understood the shooting stance you would take to see through the scope.

>>64834175Go pick me up an iguana and I'll post you a trail pic from a galaxy far, far away.
>>64834328Does it really help the range? I’ve had pretty good luck lobbing .38 special 100 yards for fun
>>64834332Great, lobbing is not shot placement. How are you at target identification or front sight post obscuring the target?
>>64833038Enjoy your 200 piece set that's really a 4 piece set because the other 196 pieces are just stupid bullshit, and the 4 that you actually use are made of chink mysterymeat potmetal.

What exactly defines a poorfag?
>>64835669Earn less than $20/hr with crippling vices, ie smoke cigarettes, drink alcohol, etc.
>>64835669as far as this thread is concerned it's a mindset not an economic condition. if you actually shoot your guns the difference between a cheap shit one and a decent one will always end up eclipsed by the cost of the ammo you put through it. if you're actually broke and still want to shoot you're pretty much limited to .22.
>>64835742People forget that used guns can be attained for good prices over new.
>>64829913I’ve never shot an RIA but I’ve heard Tisas is a bit better
>>64834718I drive my FWD Rav4 just fine on forest service roads. You can drive a little Corolla more places than you’d think

>>64835886on buds a taurus g3 is $233 and a glonk 19 is $540. that's a difference of $307. ammoseek is showing 9mm at $6 a box. so by buying a cheap shit gun instead of an expensive shit one (har har) you save 50 boxes of ammo. that might sound like a lot, but how many years are you going to own the gun? for an even more extreme example a shadow 2 is 157 boxes of ammo more expensive, but if you shoot a box a week that's only 3 years, and that kind of gun you might own your entire life and will to your child. or to put it another way the difference between a taurus and a shadow 2 is less than 2 weeks pay at a mcjob.
>>64827050This is my carry gun, and I fucking love it. Mine was $200, but it came with a lock box, a magazine loader, and a few boxes of ammo. It gets the job done, it's reliable, it's sufficiently ergonomic for me, but still small enough to be comfortably concealable, and I can shoot it well. >>64827306Maybe you should.

>>64835908>to put it another way the difference between a taurus and a shadow 2 is less than 2 weeks pay at a mcjob.not entirely sure but i think you just talked yourself out of your initial point of "taurus and train" in the same damn post. just buy a gun you know you can rely on; if that means saving a little, fine. when you're broke it's far more important to "buy once, cry once" instead of buying some saturday night special because the pawnshop had it marked down and hoping it works. also, personally, the approx. 4 cpr difference between 9mm and 22lr is negligible when considering both the entertainment of shooting 9mm and its performance characteristics, especially if you only had to choose one.>ammoseeklooking at the unfiltered ammoseek list of sketchy vendors with remanned ammo and questionable shipping prices is not representative of what one should expect when looking for decently cheap factory produced plinking food. it's more like looking at temu.
>>64836135I'm retarded and falling for the carnivore thing (also it's cheap if you get 10lbs 27/73 ground beef at Walmart (picrel)). I don't use the sauce packets, they're just there because I'm lazy.

>>64836128yeah I don't shoot 9mm so I thought that was kind of low. it puts things even more in favor of not buying cheap shit though.
>>64836220Literally me >hell yeah
>>64837012If you’re buying a cheap or crappy tool kit, odds are the jobs you actually need them for are very light work and not super wearing on the tools. Apartment poors like myself can just call maintenance to fix the big stuff. But if I need to hand some pictures, change my oil/filters, put together some cheapshit furniture, or make very minor house repairs, it’s nice to have some tools to do it. Obviously the tools are crap and would falter on an actual job site pounding rocks, but that’s not the intended user.

>>64837617Yeah I get it. Chink shit you buy online is poor quality. But for $20 it’s low risk, maybe medium reward. Some tools are better than no tools.

>>64836492>So do you cut off some of it when you need to use it then freeze the rest?Have you never bought a Family Pack from the store? Of course you freeze the rest.
>>64836492>>64837791Different anon but I cook it all then bag it and freeze it. Easier this way if you've got a big pot to cook it all in since you only need to cook it once, but you do have to break it up after it freezes since it will obviously all freeze into one solid slab of ground beef. Freezing doesn't really affect the quality as far as I can tell.
>>64838238It just seems too economical to be true.
