I think I’d have more trust playing catch with 200 year old dynamite than chambering that into a rifle

Gonna wind up like Kentucky ballistics

[tropic zodiac]

i was gonna say turkey could help you

[blazing glacier]

I think I trust an original round more than a Turkish one

But brass is brass

[carmine tide]

exactly

[tropic zodiac]

the projectile looks like lead

[fallen epoch]

Jsut forge your own brass lmao

At that point

[blazing glacier]

REAL

[fallen epoch]

That would be a dream setup

[round sentinel]

[fallen epoch]

Funny creations

[round sentinel]

if only brass case manufacturing was that easy

[fallen epoch]

😞

if only

[mossy surge]

Ever had issues with bolt dragging going into battery when the trigger is held?

[round sentinel]

Oh yeah def, on the original rare breed it was super notable

[blazing glacier]

I think I’ll have to start forming the 50-70 and 50-90 brass

[round sentinel]

the newer FRT type systems are usually a lot better about it

the AZR doesnt drag

[round sentinel]

doesnt RMC still make that?

RSC def does

[blazing glacier]

Iirc, yeah, but what I need is .43 Dutch, which only Buffalo Arms appears to make, at 5$ a round

[round sentinel]

yeah, least if its that similar to another case, you can form it

thats how 401 wsl and the 10. whatever swiss is done

10.4?

cant remember fuckin numbers

[carmine tide]

i should get the sp5 chrome plated

[round sentinel]

even im not that gay

[blazing glacier]

Basically after 80 rounds it pays for itself, between the dies and all, though, so that’s nice

[misty cove]

making brass is the easy part compared to making the cases

[round sentinel]

fuckin real, tho brass is a colloquial term for cases

[summer plover]

Bro I'm so disappointed, my astigmatism makes even eotechs useless

Should I just go for a prism?

[golden marlin]

Have you used a EOTech before

[summer plover]

Yeah it's still smeared

[golden marlin]

Eotech's are supposed to be fuzzy

That's how holographic imaging works

[summer plover]

Well nah it's starbursting like red dots do

[round sentinel]

try green

[golden marlin]

Yep

[round sentinel]

if green doesnt work youll def need to go etched

the Primary Arms micro 1x prisms are p nice

[summer plover]

Isn't the main issue with prisms the limited eye relief?

[round sentinel]

yeah

but if you have red and green astig issues, you are p much limited to etched optics

😭

[summer plover]

An acog on a PSA would be funny

[round sentinel]

oof

psa

[summer plover]

I'm poor and I'm proud

[round sentinel]

😔

[summer plover]

I did sell my PSA px9 the other day, that thing was kind of a hunk of shit ngl

Was rather impressed that a 10.5in blowback 9mm felt worse in the recoil department than a 16in 5.56

[round sentinel]

thats fairly normal for an AR9

[summer plover]

Also had some goofy feeding issues from any magazine. Somehow still got my money out of it

[blazing temple]

The humble sub2k

[carmine tide]

some dots do better with astigs than others

i can use aimpoints, cant use vortex

[round sentinel]

hes fucked with eotech so, all are fucked

[carmine tide]

god damn

blind as fuck

have someone else shoot for you and sit in the chair

[carmine tide]

im honestly surprised optic companies havent tried using prescription glass or different emitters or something to help astigs

idk how much innovation you can do most red dots are 20+ year old designs still

[boreal copper]

hey guys looking to purchase my first handgun preferably something around the size of a glock 19

[carmine tide]

glock 19

[boreal copper]

looking for any reccomendations/alternatives

[carmine tide]

the 19 is the perfect carry gun for 90% of people

unless youre 6'8 or 4'11 itll be fine

[boreal copper]

im sure thats true but id like to explore my other options as well

[carmine tide]

people here will probably recommend the m&p 2.0

i personally carry a usp compact

glock clones usually arent worth it

[boreal copper]

good to know

[carmine tide]

i detest sig i wouldnt recommend my worst enemy carry one

[floral veldt]

Gonna shill a CZ75 PCR or P-01 if you want a rail. The metal frame CZs are g etting a bit expensive though so 2.0 is my other rec

[boreal copper]

i tried out my aunts p365 its pretty small and thin

[carmine tide]

they have so many issues with their other products i dont trust anything

main issues being the m7 and p320

[tired aurora]

just put a magnifier behind it

and then its quite chrisp

[true mist]

the PIP joint of my ring finger is still mostly immobile (finger surgery after motorcycle accident) but its coincidentally stiff in a good position for me to still hold a gun comfortably

hopefully i can go back to matches next month

[floral veldt]

That surgery was a couple months ago now wasn't it? I remember when you first mentioned it

[true mist]

almost exactly a month ago, but the extensor blocking pins only came out last week

so i still have swelling and a good bit of extensor lag

[floral veldt]

Ah my sense of time is shit. That's not bad for one week

[true mist]

it should get better over the next few months but we'll see

[floral veldt]

Yee

[red salmon]

The Smith and Wesson Equalizer is good

[boreal copper]

yea but aren't they pretty small too

im also not a fan of the safety

[red salmon]

Magazine with a extended base plate fixes that and you can fix the safety

[summer plover]

It's weird, it's getting not too much more expensive just to buy a shadow

[floral veldt]

Yeah not many pistols fluctuate so consistently between reasonable and 'get the race version'

[summer plover]

I bought a P01 frame and slapped my compact slide on it, cost like 600 bucks in total

Also, nice kalina cat

[atomic kite]

I hate glocks , and really dislike any striker fired pistol

I have a carry rotation but these are my mains

[summer plover]

Bro still has beef with Rosa Parks

[atomic kite]

Yes.

Haven't taken a new "family photo " so these are the old ones

[summer plover]

Wartime production p38 or a a manurhin p1?

[atomic kite]

It's a odd one has the walther banner and is marked p38 , has p1 grips and is made just after the war

It's a oddity

[summer plover]

That's that shit Josef Mengele was stitching together

[ivory violet]

Have u cosplayed as the big iron guy yet

[true mist]

I was a certified Glock hater for the first ~9 years of my shooting until I went and bought one and got used to it

now its just what I prefer

i fw the vibes of your collection tho

[atomic stream]

Love shooting minis the drip is impeccable

[lone moss]

They are fun yet incredibly ass at the same time

[thin cypress]

Reminds me to buy a mini 14

[lone moss]

Don’t

[thin cypress]

Nah I need that drip

[lone moss]

I mean fair but fair warning they are kinda ass

[boreal copper]

do they have an ambidextrous slide magazine and slide release

[atomic kite]

Like as marty robbins? No

[atomic kite]

I owned a 19x for a year then sold it

Trigger pull feels like a staple gun

[atomic kite]

Thanks

[atomic kite]

Mine is a original mini 14 I don't have any complaints about it the factory irons are great and it's a handy carbine

[atomic kite]

Get a 180 series the only thing is ,is that they are 4 moa carbines

[round sentinel]

180 posting hours

Kinda

[lone moss]

I mean there’s nothing inherently wrong with them as a rifle but compared to every other rifle platform they suck

[round sentinel]

You just explained the AK

And pretty much everything else that isn’t an AR or does something genuinely unique that has a draw to choose it

[atomic kite]

I mean only in a accuracy department, I love the handling

It points well weighs damn near the same as a a1

Better an a m1a

The mag fitment is a little wonky sometimes, the 30’s are even weirder

[carmine tide]

Every modern semi auto carbine is either a 180 or an ar15

[tropic zodiac]

I don’t like bullpup designs

[carmine tide]

All modern gun companies know is build 180, eat hot chip and lie

[tropic zodiac]

Mmm

Is this Inherently true?

[round sentinel]

Except for RA. Yeah

[carmine tide]

RA?

[tropic zodiac]

Rifles association?

[carmine tide]

Well scratch that

Keltec exists

They just dont make good shit

[tropic zodiac]

What about hk

[round sentinel]

The XCR

[carmine tide]

The 416 is a really high end 180

[carmine tide]

Roller delay isn’t real

It’s a myth made up by big Germany

You could show up to a party with high waters, a 69 mustang mach 1, a floral shirt and a mp5

The short stroke piston rifle that almost every modern piston gun is based off of

[carmine tide]

I will never have that much sex appeal

And im going to make it everyone else's problem

[round sentinel]

G36, ACR, MDR, etc etc etc. All based off of the AR180 system

[carmine tide]

Who has the oops all 180s meme

[round sentinel]

I know I have it somewhere

[carmine tide]

Its a shame the og was kinda garbage

Cheap plastic and bad mags

[round sentinel]

That’s the 180 not the 18

Original 18’s were at least all steel and slot cut legally distinct stanags

[tropic zodiac]

Ok the 7.62 ar180

That would be cool to fire

Why did the Irish need to make it

[round sentinel]

They didn’t

They were American rifles

[carmine tide]

The only thing the Irish make are car bombs and alcohol

[round sentinel]

Excluding the latter

[tropic zodiac]

He also made the 22lr machinegun apparently

[blazing temple]

Who is this he

[carmine tide]

Stoner

[blazing temple]

Is there another .22 automatic I don't know about besides the american 180

[round sentinel]

That’s probably what he’s lookin at

[lone moss]

Accuracy, price, usability, mag price too

Don’t get me wrong I love mine but a 600$ ar does everything better for half the price besides vibes

[atomic kite]

I paid 650 for my 180 and 850 for my ranch rifle used 2 years ago

I 180 feeds promags like a champ

[misty cove]

and 20% of americans

[lone moss]

And a 600$ ar used is 250-300$, you are arguing a mute point lmao vibes are there performance to price ratio is not

Ahh it’s probably all sticky

[boreal copper]

where would you reccomend buying a used firearm from?

[round sentinel]

The local crackhead

[lone moss]

Local gun store, reputable online vendors who do pd trade ins and gunbroker if you are looking for something special

[jaunty crane]

not really the place I should be asking but I know few of you here that have been there and done it
tomorrow I take my ASVAB on paper and right now I do kinda dread it because I don't want to get a bad score

for those who did it how much preparation did you do and what score did you get?

[thorny flame]

you could get one of those guides and score a 99 easily

as long as you are not literally regarded

[lunar marsh]

No prep. I don’t remember my asvab score but my GT score was 119. Thats really the only score that matters

[modest hatch]

My sister and I took it at the same time and neither of us studied. We sat down and agreed to race. She made a 60 something and I made an 85

It's not hard

Its a lot of general knowledge and logic questions from what I remember of it

like pratical application stuff

[thorny flame]

Realistically where they’ll get you is probably the math section

[jaunty crane]

the math seems easy
the problem is I havent done math that easy since the 7th grade

I do need to score high on the mechanical section though since I do want to be in the airforce as a maintainer

[boreal copper]

I got a 124 but decided to pursue simething else

[boreal copper]

looking for something basic, preferably online as i could find what i want specifcially, could you name a few reputable vendors

[modest hatch]

the only question I remember off the asvab was about what type of paint to use when painting a particular surface. The only reason I got it right is because my mom used me for free labor painting the house and other stuff

[boreal copper]

i dont remember any question from it

[lone moss]

What exactly are you looking for?

Like pd trade in stuff? Milsurp? Just used stuff?

[thorny flame]

it would be like rate problems, basic math

could probably brush up on electrical circuits

[boreal copper]

yeah just used stuff

like an unmodified m&p 2.0

[round sentinel]

Preparation? Lmao

It’s all like common sense and basic shit. You’ll be fine if you aren’t clinically stupid

[jaunty crane]

yeah thats the vibe im getting
I just want to get a high score
80 or higher
my brother got an 81 when he did it
trying to see if I can beat it

[round sentinel]

There should be some online example tests prolly

No clue. Didn’t study and maxed it

[lone moss]

I’ve had good luck with sportsman’s outdoor superstore

[lunar marsh]

if his goal is a 40 then
what was this guy getting
single digits?

where from?

[soft jay]

Asvab?

[lone moss]

It can’t be ambi , reciprocating charging handle, awkward to mount a sight on due to ejection port unless forward mounted, 4 moa rifle at 100 yards, mag changes can be sticky and awkward, doesn’t suppress super well without work, it’s a ban state or vibe rifle it’s okay to admit these things

[carmine tide]

A "gunsmith" called, apparently theres a thing called forced reset safeties now and that I should be fired bc I said theres frts and super safeties but a safety cant be forced to reset

[round sentinel]

HEHHEHE it’s great

Looking at a brake to use

[round sentinel]

Yeah

[white estuary]

They don't like to be suppressed , I wanna say they rock and lock too which can be a meh thing for a lot of folks.

Optic mounting options are not great / can be fiddly.

Fun rifles but they show their age / design era.

[round sentinel]

It’s a bad rock and lock at that

The hole and beveled pin can be such a nightmare to fit with some mags

[lunar marsh]

Our patrol rifles were wood stock 14s up until about 2014 lol

[lone moss]

Literally this, basically requires an aftermarket mag release to be usable

[round sentinel]

ayup

[lone moss]

But what would I know I only have one and have ran it in 2 gun

[round sentinel]

the mini 30's are atrocious too

so much worse than 14's

[lone moss]

Real

[fringe prawn]

i mean patrol rifles mainly exist to get rack wear and dust in a police cruiser for 20 years until getting sold to retailer to replace with a high end AR

[lunar marsh]

Where I worked me and partner deployed our rifles very often…went to nightly shooting and stabbing calls

[carmine tide]

Nukes arent real

[fringe prawn]

in a big city PD probably

[lunar marsh]

Yes. We led dept every year with about 40-50 occupied stolen vehicle recoveries a year…we were very proud of that title year after year

The county agency we worked adjacent to was a very popular agency to film with COPS and we worked very closely with those guys on graveyard shift. City had an agreement with the show that if our dept was in footage it couldn’t be aired. I’ve been filmed on quite a few cops episodes in pursuits, foot chases and arrests that never made it to television lol.

[misty cove]

said the japanese

[carmine tide]

If you cut a sandwich

Youre cutting atoms

Which means every time you cut a sandwich a nuclear explosion would happen

It doesnt

So nukes arent real

youre not cutting uranium bro

You don't know what I put on my sandwich

[misty cove]

probably nuttela and a ton of other shit

(you arent)

[tropic zodiac]

You need the atom splitter

Not cutter

[round sentinel]

technically, the sandwich was never cut

you just perceive it as cut

[tropic zodiac]

This is true

It was separated

A cut is a sawing motion

So could you say that you sawed the sandwich?

[soft jay]

Sandwich is a matter, matter are atoms, but your knife is way too big to split an atom

[carmine tide]

Yet my sandwich is now cut in half

[carmine tide]

Perception is reality

my chemical nerd is going off rn

[tropic zodiac]

[round sentinel]

literally its not severed

[tropic zodiac]

Because grilled cheese in tomato soup is good

[carmine tide]

Then why is it cut in half

[soft jay]

Why can't I put my sandwich together back again

[tropic zodiac]

Because it was sawed

?

[carmine tide]

Exactly

So the atom was split

So nukes arent real

[tropic zodiac]

You might be on to something

[round sentinel]

they still have a chemical bond between one another, not dis similar to a magnet, even when 'cut'

dont worry I dont have much better understanding than yall of this

[soft jay]

Ok fix my sandwich

[round sentinel]

I get the concept but its weird

[carmine tide]

So if they're bonded why can't it be put back together

This is an euphemism for my parents marriage

It will also come with nothing

And it would be tasty

I’m a hungry guy

It would also have no flavor

Why

We can’t add some?

Anyone have any experience with this new frontier load?

everything i have seen is that it runs pretty hot, like those earlier IMI loads

buffman should have a video out on it any day now with more chrono stuff

honestly didnt even now they made them

[scenic jetty]

holy shit

[lunar marsh]

Brand new stuff as of the last month or so. Just landed on shelves of bass pro/cabelas. May buy a couple hundred rounds if it’s decent

[lofty osprey]

i've definitely had experiences with frontier ammo....I'm going to stay far away.

[lone moss]

LMAO

[misty cove]

Is that bad?

[modest hatch]

It's just spicy. A little bit of recoil.

[misty cove]

What's the usual fmj speed

[modest hatch]

Idk. Google it.

[misty cove]

[lone moss]

Just hot ammo

[lunar marsh]

Please explain. I’ve never messed with it

[carmine tide]

We've had a ton of issues with it at work

Psa is doing no questions asked returns on them which is never done on ammo

Even when aac was a thing we didn't do returns on ammo

[red salmon]

Is aac no longer a thing

[lunar marsh]

I guess I’ll pass then. Was just considering it since I could get 200 rds for the price I can get 80 rounds of BH mk262

[carmine tide]

Hasn't been for a few months

[lofty osprey]

Frontier ammo loads their stuff hotter than advertised, over pressure signs. Blown primers being the most annoying. I’ve had one batch crack the case neck .

[lunar marsh]

I’ve been reading that was a problem with the 55/62 gr loading but the 75/77 gr loadings have not been problematic. Curious if this is the case 🤷‍♂️

[round sentinel]

[hushed salmon]

Big bipod

[blazing temple]

Exorbitantly sized tripod, even

[mossy surge]

Shooting unsupported is a lost art and by god I will master it

[soft jay]

Use your arm as bipod

[scenic jetty]

I see

[tired aurora]

It's not a lost art... It's just worse than supported in like 9/10 cases

[mossy surge]

Most people nowadays can't hit the broad side of a barn without support my dude, of course supported is better.

[tired aurora]

I mean. Up to 300m most ppl can hit a torso sized target unsupported

It's only past that

That is iffy. (~330yeards)

[mossy surge]

We must go to different ranges then, glad to hear you got people out there still being able to shoot standing

[tired aurora]

I mean depends on the gun too

I'll happily plink 300 with my MR223 but the MP5 is basically 150 max. After that you're lobbing shoots already and it's more a cone of fire.

[hushed salmon]

9mm at 300m. Just run away at that point

[tired aurora]

Maybe out of a 16in barrel. My MP5 is the SD soo the barrel is comparable length to some competition pistols.

[hushed salmon]

Once took my cz527 in 762x39 to a long range class for laughs. Surplus ammo. At 600m I was aiming at the fucking moon

[tired aurora]

Kek

I gotta aim like above the head on a resuced torso target to hit the torso on the lower half... At 100m xD

[mossy surge]

I think gun and optics being a factor in how accurate you are at different ranges is pretty obvious hahahaha, all I'm saying is I see fever and fever people doing unsupported shooting nowadays at least where I'm at

[tired aurora]

But it's soo soo soo much fun cheap and as quiet as a 22.lr

[true mist]

i think youd be surprised by the average shooters level of competence
the main match i go to usually has a 100yd unsupported shot and people WHIFF that shit all day when you have to do it standing

kneeling/sitting/prone is obv free, but standing on the clock it takes the average shooter some effort

[lone moss]

This lmao, I watch people whiff 10 yard targets in idpa all the time

[true mist]

yeah, we had a ~50yd Azone sized pistol steel on a stage once and a ton of people par'd out

[tired aurora]

yikes...

[white estuary]

2nd on this. Most people can't shoot standing to save their lives .

[modest hatch]

Personally made it a point to hit a roughly 8in target at 100ish yards with all my arms (minus the shotgun) standing

[soft jay]

Gucci Glock with red dot, radian after burner serrated cut slide and super light trigger doesn't improve shooter skills?

[true mist]

i do actually think a red dot and light trigger makes more precise shots more accessible to a wider range of shooters, but yeah, theres obviously no replacement for training and marksmanship skills

[round sentinel]

yeah, absolutely true

A bad shooter can still shoot ok on a good 2011, its a very well known thing

[lone moss]

This tbh

[round sentinel]

but itll still never make up for a lack of skill

[lone moss]

Owning 2011’s made me a better shooter overall but they aren’t a crutch to skill

[true mist]

i think better weapons can help people pick up marksmanship skills faster and easier by isolating functions so that clear input=clear output, if that makes sense

so yeah def true that a good weapon can bandaid or mask deep underlying issues, they can also be a good platform for new people to learn best practices on

it just comes down to whether or not people actually shoot+train

[modest hatch]

Definitely makes training someone new easier. Just trying to get someone to hit a target with a dot vs irons is a lot easier

They get comfortable with the motions, recoil and things, so you can build on that confidence

[misty cove]

the best gun to start with is the goofiest

hehe

[round sentinel]

is the "breach" and the "chamber" the same thing on a bolt action rifle

Yes in most cases the terms are interchangeable . But breach also includes the bolt face

they are not actually interchangeable lmao

Breech is specifically the bolt face and wall

chamber is the barrel side

" Breach face " is the bolt face

A breach is chamber and bolt face

what is the velocity

2 meter per year?

[tepid cedar]

300gr subs at 1050fps

215gr supers at 1700fps

From 8.5" bbl

LPVO has a 14yd/124yd zero for subs, with max height being 4.2in above point of impact at 90yds. From there it drops 1 mrad every 22yd out to 300yds

Still carrying over 500ft-lbs of energy out to 600yds if you want to bother adjusting scope for the drop

The 300gr technically can be pushed just over supersonic when handloading but its not great for accuracy. Hornady's own reloading data for 300gr a-tips in this round shows 11.6gr of H110 for 1150fps
