I sold my favorite gun to my (at the time) best friend to help fund a cross-country move. Said friend promised me that I could buy it back at cost at any point in the future. For five years I was too financially strapped to justify buying it back from him, but finally got my shit in order with a house and a bit of savings building up. And then he proceeded to expose himself to one of my female relatives, which torpedoed any chance of continuing to be his friend or get my gun back.

A few years ago I purchased a Swiss m1911 rifle in perfect condition. I really wanted a fitting bayonet for it but the best I could find at the time was a bayonet for a K31 rifle. The lug on that knife is tighter than that on the m1911 bayonet so despite being almost identical to the one I needed, it wouldn't fit.I realized my mistake way too late and by that point I wasn't interested in returning or exchanging the bayonet that I had to buy for $200 so I did the next best thing and opened up the lug with a dremel. I am not proud of myself for "destroying" a piece of history, but now it fits perfectly.
Not sure if its a sin, but I plan to eventually buy a Mark 23 for purposes of conceal carry

My daily carry is a .22 LR. I own center fire calibers, and have carried them. But I am far more accurate with the .22, and it's light enough that I don't mind carrying it everywhere, everyday.

I have neglected my firearms. I go to the range only 2-3 times a year, dry fire about as often and still don't have a CC permit despite intending to get one for years.
>>65387680I haven't been to the range in 4 years now. I have been tempted to just have 9mm, 22lr, and 223 be the only calibers in my collection. I wanna do that because I keep saying ammo is just too expensive, but deep down I know it is just because I hate my local ranges and lost anyone to go to the range with. I also think I just don't enjoy shooting all that much.
>>65389246i've seen your work, absolue kino desu
>>65387680I'm good with a long guns, but not great with pistols, despite the size of my collection. Didn't touch a pistol until I was in my 20's because we never had them in the house. 7 yards, BHP right, P99 left. I need to get better but just have difficulty with it.
I haven't shot any of my guns in a year. I moved last January and the only public range in the area sucks, and I don't have any local /k/ friends to go to BLM land with.
>>65389743It's the opposite for me. Grew up in a big city where there was an indoor range with handgun rentals 10 minutes from me, but close to an hour to the nearest outdoor range (which was only 100yd) and nobody in the area had long gun rentals. On top of that it was California where long guns were much more restricted than handguns, and I grew up in a family that didn't hunt or anything. I'm about to be 40 and have been shooting handguns for nearly 20 years now but I'd only shot rifles a few random times before finally buying a 10/22 and AR after moving to a freer state last year.
>>65387680I haven't gone shooting for the better part of a yearI have an old rifle that I inherited that desperately needs some love and attention but I'm too lazy
>>65389863On that note, I've had my grandpa's Remington 760 for a decade now and was never able to get it apart to check the bore and clean the thing up properly. I've accumulated a bunch of new tools and a decent workspace over the last year and finally managed to do it last week, with quite a bit of persuasion from a heat gun, penetrating oil, and some percussive maintenance. It's in surprisingly nice shape given it hasn't been fired since the '60s and the last time it'd been oiled before I got it was probably sometime in the '80s considering he died in '89 and it just sat in a closet in a nasty vinyl case until my grandma went in '08.
>>65389871Yeah, the old rifle I have is in similar shape, but was probably less well preserved-- I have a MKII* SMLE that's sat in a garbage bag in an attic for the better par of the past three decades (grampa fired it once hunting deer, cried when he killed one and never touched it again); desperately need a deep clean, a new sling, and while monkeying around with it I bent part of the bolt retention ridge on the reciever out of place and I got to mallet it back inno idea if its even safe to fire; and its bubba'd so it won't even be a pretty wallhanger without some restoration

>>65389470The Henry and Samurai Edge are both acceptable firearms in the eyes of the /k/ube.

Every chance I get I teach my wife and others to shoot. It is a difficult path but still possible. I know the road leads to more guns, and bringing more people to shoot them.

Limiting yourself to a few guns is fine as long as you practice.As for the ranges this is also a common problem among /k/ommando’s. Fudds and retards make it difficult to shoot.

Haven’t heard about any new ones but I haven’t been on for a while.A good time, although there were some regards there. I remember I wanted to bring more, but all I had was my WASR-10. I forgot to bring boots and clothing and it was muddy. Me and my friend arrived at night. The plastic of my 96 Camry scraping the bottom of the road causing a racket while everyone was camping. We were greeted by a barely clothed man wearing a ski mask. He came to welcome us to nuggetfest, and we talked about the guns we liked. I mentioned that I liked the C96 and wish I could own one. Proceed to pull out his collection of C96 Mauser’s including a Type 17 in .45 ACP. It was an interesting time and truly memorable.

I don't want to tell my friends because last they heard, it was going well, and they look to me for guidance.

I miss her a lot more. I don't know what I'm going to do.
>>65391620Been there, anon. Extremely painful (for you), I get it. Best advice I have is to say you must accept that, due to the intensity of the disappointment, you will not experience the same enjoyment to which you’re accustomed in any activity for some time. Shooting, drinking, gaming, whatever. It may distract you for short periods, but that’s it (and even then, not nearly as well as you’d like). Consequently, you might as well reject escapism for the time being and lean HARD into self improvement and accomplishment. Work out, complete that house/school/job project you’ve been putting off, do some volunteering to reduce the suffering of others, et cetera. It will almost certainly be miserable for you as it was for me. But at least you’ll wake up several years from now and, whether /hasgf/ or not, you won’t suddenly find yourself a fat retard with zero self control, and you will have made some positive impact on your surroundings. I had a truly miserable breakup with the girl I expected to spend the rest of my life with, I followed this advice I’m giving you now, and these days I thank God every day that this is how it turned out (she got fat and I crushed grad school and early career efforts without her distracting me looool). Read some Marcus Aurelius, listen to Half Way Up by Clint Black, and keep putting one foot in front of the other no matter what. WAGMI

The part I feel most bad about was that my 3rd actual friend (who has his own guns) was taking a shit in a port-a-potty while this was all going on, and he came out when I was about to shoot and was to the left side of the barrel, and caught most of the noise from the gunshot besides the other two.

I have not once conceal carried my handguns because I live in NJ, and the process to acquire a CCW permit is fucking stupid and takes too long to get one. Buy the time you finish taking the courses, getting references, and submitting the application, it takes months before you even see that license. Anything can happen within that time frame. I am inspired by that based Idaho /k/ommando that wasted that POS mass shooter a few days ago. I might just start carrying permitless, regardless of what the law says. I could not live with myself if someone started killing innocent people, and I had no way to stop him.
>>65394620Well that's fucking childish of you, on so many levels. You sure the real reason you won't even try for the permit is that it's an effective eternity (so, 2-3 year?) until you're old enough that you can apply for it?

>>65394719Who do you mean by modern gun owners? I find the toothless guys pretty funny, and most are vets. I don’t trust their gun advice but they say crazy shit so I find it enjoyable. Saluto Nex Alea
>>65394721Honestly I would normally say guns belong to every man, and every man deserves to learn. But I also hate socialists and learners with shitty attitudes. I teach the brothers in my Fraternity, most are usually pretty liberal but they have good attitudes about guns and a genuine desire to learn. You’re the teacher, so your word and preference is the law. No sin detected. Keep it up.Saluto Nex Alea
>>65394874This made me laugh, thank you.I can hear your frustration in this reply. I fucking hate fully disassembling my M1A scout. I think it’s supposed to be an easier rifle to disassemble, but taking apart the receiver pisses me off so damn much. But I didn’t beat it to death with a hammer. LmaoStay strong brother, I wish you luck next time you disassemble a handgun. Saluto Nex Alea
>>65395472Very understandable and not a sin. In my opinion it may be better to hold onto the .45-70 and still shoot other guns. You never know if the itch to shoot big bore will come back, but that’s just me. Keep shooting.Saluto Nex Alea
>>65387680I've shot loads onto three of my guns and given them girls names. I do not mean ammunition.
I live in a constitutional carry state, but I do not carry a firearm except maybe once in a long while. Also the only holster I own is a shitty nylon pocket holster that prints and I can't draw from for shit.I'm also starting to gunsoom more than I train/shoot. I'm on my 2nd unfired pistol in 2 months.
I like shooting my bolt action .22s more than my centerfire semi-autos.
>>65396080Indiana sounds like a fucking perfect state to live in. Almost like one of America's best kept secrets.
>>65395054>DSA stands for Democratic Socialists of America you stupid fucking chud what's edgy about that?Well, the fact that commie faggots have butchered over 110 million lives over the course of 100 years certainly doesn't help your case. Also, why the fuck would any decent /k/ommando help your kind git gud with any sort of firearm training? You people were all about taking gun rights away from based right wing bros from the very beginning. If you love socialism so much, you're always free to leave, China would welcome you lol.
>>65396348>Well, the fact that commie faggots have butchered over 110 million lives over the course of 100 years certainly doesn't help your case. The vast majority of those killed were other commies so that’s based tho
>>65395472So do extra light loads. Bring it down to .45acp velocity.
>>65396411>The vast majority of those killed were other commies so that’s based thoThey targeted and killed many Christians and other good people, especially of their own countrymen. The fact that their own fellow travelers got caught in the organs doesn't make it based.
>>65396336Indiana is also a constitutional carry state. The only reason I have a permit is to show my Japanese friends and carry in other states that honor it. Indiana is the crossroads of America, because nobody stops to visit. In turn Indiana is empty, and boring, but there is a lot of space to go shooting. Southern Indiana is best in my opinion. Peaceful area, beautiful countryside, and good fun culture. Saluto Nex Alea.
>>65388492It's doable, get a good holster. The Ronin Leather Orvar OWB is what I use. Excellent during cooler months.
>>65396893Same anon, confession time. A coworker gave me a box of 357 Sig a few years ago as a gift, I don't own anything chambered in it, he thought revolvers were chambered in it. I didn't have the heart to tell him, as he was excited to give it over as a parting gift. I'm thinking of adding a 357 Sig into my collection solely dor that box of ammo, and to honor his gift.
>>65396412I don't think it's possible to load .45-70 that low and still have it come out the barrel. The light trapdoor loads are only pushing about 950 fps as it is, and those are about as little powder as I feel safe putting in there, but a 405 gr slug is still a beefy bastard to move.
>>65396336Why yes there's a town called Gary you should visit.
>>65397265Lmao
>>65396138Just make sure you clean them afterwards.Saluto Nex Alea
>>65396158Buy a better holster and carry. Make it a habit. But don’t leave you gun in a bathroom stall. 5 hail /k/ubes
>>65396201Not a sin..22 is fun to shoot and accurate.Saluto Nex Alea
back when i was in the military i returned a rifle i took to the range and lied about cleaning it afterwards because i knew the armorer so i knew he will take my word for it l
>>65397265Oh cool, sounds like a quiet and unassuming plac->mfw it's near ChicagoY u do dis?
>>65387680Sometimes I buy weapons completely regret it and end up selling it at a lower price than I paid for. Worse I sometimes don't even use them because buyers remorse is just that bad
>>65387680I chickened out of shooting a family heriloom in front of friends after dry firing it and feeling the trigger not clicking properly. I later found out that it seems to work fine when pulling the trigger faster, but the idea of keeping my fingers still won over the thrill of shooting.
>>65387680I suck at shooting handguns and don't have time to train at all
>>65397952Been shooting nearly every 2 weeks for 2 years and I still have to consciously stop myself from flinching. Only happens with 9mm and "big calibers", not 22lr. It sucks.
>>65397455I need more context I think. Not a sin, but my advice would be to hang onto them. If you want a different gun it might be easier to trade them. Personally I love all my guns, even the “shitty” ones. My Serbian tokarevs (even shitty custom ones), S&W in .32 S&W, Hi-Point, Raven Arms, etc. Guns are usually not an investment that brings more money but they generally hold their value over time as long as you don’t buy stuff like commemorative or brand new. People may disagree with this and there are exceptions. Plus hanging onto them would be good if you change your mind later. I think this is a common issue for people so you’re not alone.Saluto Nex Alea
>>65394602>I also still run a 3x9x42 as my main optic on my AR. And it's been that way for a decade and a half now. I refuse to change.I have a 3-9x40 on my AR. I only use it for hunting and some range trips anyways. Yes it has a FSB because M4-ish rifle. No, I cannot see even a shadow or blur of it like 95% of the time with high rings. 3-9x40 is also on my 22. Just a good scope zoom range. Kinda wish I had a 2x option but it doesn't bother me that much as if game is that close, it's running quick or dead still anyways.
>>65397290Funny, but a sin. Clean your guns you animal.10 hail /k/ubesSaluto Nex alea
>>65397534Good to have some healthy skepticism. The string method is very helpful.Saluto Nex Alea
>>65397952I’ve been shooting for a long time as well and have moved on to teaching others. I still need practice and pull on certain guns. I carry an Sig p226 and it works fine to me, same thing with the Browning HP, CZ P09 and similar. I pull on other handguns like the Tokarev and VP70. I think it’s normal, and no matter how good you get you stay a student until you die.Teaching people has yielded funny results. Some people are naturally good shooters and have never shot, others have shot and are worse. I’ve seen people shoot good first try and get worse as I teach them. Lots of factors affect this, and just require time and practice. Some advice is to film yourself shooting and watch yourself shoot. Try to spot discrepancies.Don’t lose hope brother.Saluto Nex Alea
>>65396201Shit's all I can afford to shoot. Good thing I like mild recoil and get amused easily by hitting steel and tightening groups. I'm getting a 22 mag to flatten drop and I'm getting a fucking MP5 to shoot because they're both closer to 19cpr than 5.56 which is getting uncomfortably, well, comfortable, dancing around that 40cpr+ mark. Cheapest good shipping non reman or random ass company 5.56 ammo on Ammoseek is fucking 41.3cpr for PMC x-tac 55gr at $8.27 LIMIT TWO BOXES. I remember Cabelas selling fucking M855 for like $7/20. In person. And that was probably a fucking ripoff at the time. If trying to improve your skills and train, 500rds 22LR > 40rds 5.56 any fucking day.
My Rossi poorfag carbine is annoying to break down to properly clean, so I just scrub and swab the bore and spray Lucas all over the bolt and relube, call it a day.Years ago I got dribbles of piss on my SAW on a field while taking a leak, called it a dirty ho and barely wiped it off. I once flipped my .45 sideways when nobody else was at the range and emptied that bitch at a target.Kinda liked when my wife's farts smelled like cordite after a long range day one time.
>>65396454No ones perfect
>>65399158I shoot a shitload of cheap 22lr then a box of 9mm as a "cherry on top". For competition I break out the nice ammo (SK or Eley) but for everyday training Magtech or Aguila is good enough.
>>65392119Thanks. Trying my best, I won't get fat, but the retarded part, I can't help. Makes me question if it's possible to even have a lasting connection with a woman. >WAGMII better. I might be a little bitter if I don't after all the effort I've put in. >>65393494Thank you Father.
>>65399252Yep pretty much what I do. Keep skills sharp on the 22 and make sure I'm still good on 5.56 or 9mm. Only need the bigger calibers to train for recoil and things specific to that gun, ie. hold over/under at various distances and how the trigger feels. Also, I need to look into it but someone told me that Aguila is having issues with getting a certain component of 22 so production is slow. I still don't know how true that is, but (sorry for phonefagging but the extend screencap feature makes this easier to capture) did you ever expect to live to see the day that AGUILA is more expensive than CCI?! Seriously!

>>65387680Despite being able to conceal carry, and having done so in the past with a Glock 19, I find myself no longer bothering to put the damn thing on my belt these days.
>>65399504I understand this, as it can become annoying after a while. I don’t even live in a dangerous area. However it is better to have it than not have it. Maybe you can switch to a different kind of holster, or just change the way you carry.Not trying to sell you on it, but I started using a shoulder holster. Still a bit cumbersome and I have to wear an over shirt, but I don’t have to fuck with it every time I take a shit or sit down. Just can’t take my over shirt off. Better for colder months.

>>65387680Bless me /k/ube for I have sinned. I had a chance to shoot with my dad with his pistol when I was younger, but I was stupid and declined. Now I have neither. I want to go back.
>>65387680ive never so much as seen a gun in real life, i just come here to give veterans internet ptsd
I buy guns more than I actually go to the range.
>>65394620Dude just move to Philadelphia. It's the same kind of shitty east coast dump as jersey but at least we're hasguns.
hello faggots my friend took me shooting outdoors with a bunch of soviet rifles, a mosin, sks, ak47, another i dont remember, then an ar15 and a m1 garand. honestly it was insanely fun.i hit some targets from 300 yards i think. id love to get more into this. where to start? this was in NY
