[edgy kestrel]

Oh cool

[golden marlin]

but someone i talked to said its sometimes not loud enough

[edgy kestrel]

Hm

[golden marlin]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVmVGXwBAQ0

heres the video on it

[edgy kestrel]

Disregard that one comment I lowkey misread

[golden marlin]

lmao

like the airsoft grenades and such kids have now are so much cooler than the shit i had as a kid

[edgy kestrel]

That’s cool

[edgy kestrel]

There is a company making 40mm grenade rounds that have a blasting cap on them

They also have smoke rounds

Lemme find em rq

[golden marlin]

i remember a brand that made some that would have timed fuzes and such

cause one guy at the field i went to had one

[edgy kestrel]

Couldn’t find it

[golden marlin]

damb

[edgy kestrel]

Yeah

I know novritsch made a vid about it a few years back

It got banned pretty quick in most places because it could technically harm someone

The company was a euro company if I remember right

[golden marlin]

i think i know exactly what your talking about cause it was really cool

[blazing temple]

Now thats a name I haven't heard in many years

[edgy kestrel]

Wait

I got em

They r called taggins

It was on the tip of my tongue

Them things r dope

https://youtu.be/YFcKlle7p3c?t=222

There

[golden marlin]

lmao

[edgy kestrel]

I found the video

[golden marlin]

yes these fucking things

[edgy kestrel]

As cool as they are

I do not desire to run them 😂

I need to put the little money I have towards my actual guns

They need love

[golden marlin]

yeah cause i remember they had a rubber round non exploding one

and when it fired

it was wet

[edgy kestrel]

Yea

It was dope

It would be super cool to see more of

[golden marlin]

its cool

[edgy kestrel]

Yeah

The local field I play at has a lot of guys who homebuilt all sorts of launchers

Some of them are super effective 😂

Vast majority kinda suck though.

I think there is a handful of guys who run chalk rounds though

So that’s dope

[golden marlin]

LMAO

[plush mauve]

You know what? I’m curious, so I’m gonna ask some of the most gun-tistic people I know:
Which rifle is better overall? (Cost, ammo availability, ease of use, etc.) the M1917, M91 Mosin Nagant, Lee Enfield SMLE, or the Gewehr 98?

And please explain why you chose what you did.

[carmine tide]

Springfield

[modest hatch]

I'm partial to my Mausers.
But I also have bought all of mine from auctions much cheaper than what you may see in a shop.
Mostly the price I was able to buy them is what decides my decision here. I've had opportunities to buy a few of these but price was either absurd considering the condition of the rifle or I was out bid.

[timid belfry]

Got it

[placid basin]

Fuck yeah, I’ve got an HK on the way as well

[golden marlin]

It would be the mauser k98

It's literally the most common bolt action design to date

And still the most produced

You don't have to be autistic to know that

[wheat oasis]

Hell yeah

I need to get a black one sometime

[severe juniper]

HK posting?

[tired aurora]

yoooo nice congratz

[placid basin]

love UMP on the UMP

[plush mauve]

Damn. I just found out that a gun shop is closing down near me… and they have a pre-ban M2 .50 cal…

But it’s $60,000…
Do you all know where I can sell my liver?

[echo cairn]

I swear lately all I'm seeing is mp5s (can't say anything I just got one too lmao)

[proven badger]

MP5 is definitely my next gun purchase

Might sell my Shadow 2 and an SKS to help fund a proper build

[tropic oak]

need an additional color not ranger green that i had on hand

wish i could get the lines nicely but i rushed it a bit

[round sentinel]

Realistically the Enfield 1917. 30-06 is super common and really only was outshined by 8mm Mauser during the era, short bolt throw, phenomenal irons, decently accurate

As much as the other guns are cool, the 1917 was kinda just the best offering

The Mauser action def is more wide spread, and for good reason. But by era standards well, p much on par

[thorny flame]

why the hurry if the entire point is nice lines

[tropic oak]

bc its a first attempt also this on my american nl545 prototype

[upbeat lodge]

Its been a minute since ive really been here

Some of yall got some new toys

I had to step away from the gun community for too long

This is what is left in the safe

[round sentinel]

Back in time to see see my L85 repro soon 🙏

[upbeat lodge]

☕ okay tea

Im excited to see that

[round sentinel]

And ofc this is still kicking lmao

I’ve basically done jack shit due to life

[upbeat lodge]

Thats h0t

And tbh same

Just bought a house and what not, fixing to be married here shortly, life be lifing

[round sentinel]

Ayyyy you and me both

[upbeat lodge]

Fixing to pcs soon too 😩

Counting these days down till I leave this money dump of a state called florida

[scenic jetty]

[silk rapids]

@upbeat lodge heyy

[upbeat lodge]

Ayooo

Hows it be??

[silk rapids]

slow AF lol

i hate washington

making mission tho, its just lame here

[upbeat lodge]

I feel ya, things are getting pretty whack on my side of the house

I hate florida

In my final year of this shit though

[silk rapids]

ive comissioned like 3 so far pending 1

[upbeat lodge]

Oh hell yeah brother

What's your yearly mission?

Yalls side of the house is omega illusive

[silk rapids]

4 lol

but the packets are huge

and the deadlines are months out so its alot of forward planning'

the biggest hurdle is finding the docs/nurses/dentists/etc then getting them CV approved and having congress sign their damn scrolls

because they cant get rank and commission without it

[olive meadow]

It’s beautiful bro. Just hot

[timid belfry]

First step down

[silk rapids]

I wanna get stationed in Eglin so bad lol

[upbeat lodge]

Brother you would absolutely fucking kill it in my area

Like 70% of the work populace here is medical rest are laborers since this place is omega retirement

St petersburg

[upbeat lodge]

It is, everything is nice around here excluding the price

I need to be in the next tax bracket

[silk rapids]

I would imagine considering there’s a lot of retirement homes and hospices there

[round sentinel]

Bro is in Russia

[wheat oasis]

[wheat oasis]

God I need to quit being lazy and get a g36 and ump

[dense kite]

bro still here 😂

[lone moss]

What in the absolute worst camera angle on the planet

[proven badger]

Probably shoved his phone in his shirt pocket lol

[blazing temple]

Tf goin on next to that tie bomber

[modest hatch]

98/05 bayonet?

[livid holly]

.300 shot well surprisingly, moved the gas rings around on the bolt carrier and it seems to have fixed the issue with all the gas being thrown into my face

Have shot everything pictured so far today as well

@round sentinel @golden marlin @lunar marsh

@silk rapids if you’re interested as well

[silk rapids]

Probably the first non milsurp thing I’ve seen from you lol

[livid holly]

Was getting some good hits on the steel at 200 yards with my Lee Enfield, still working on doing that with my mosin and got a good bit of hits on the same one with my .300 upper 7-8 shots in a row before I had a light strike

[golden marlin]

id just get a charging handle that seals it off

[unique fjord]

No vz spotted

[livid holly]

Mind you my red dots are all flared out because astigmatism

[golden marlin]

prevents gas from traveling down the charging handle

[livid holly]

Yeah, that’s fair

[unique fjord]

Flex seal that gas hole

[livid holly]

I’m just using an A2 style CH for my .300 upper

[silk rapids]

Radian SD or G$

[livid holly]

And I’ve got a radian raptor lt on my 556

But just moving the gas rings around seems to have done a LOT

[unique fjord]

Same bro. Prisms ftw

Have you tried gold dots yet. Those help out a decent bit

[livid holly]

Nah, I’m also broke asf right now so I can’t even if I wanted to

[lone moss]

Glasses gents, changed my life for shooting comps

[carmine tide]

Lol this nerd wears glasses

[unique fjord]

Woah it’s like glasses don’t fix red dots from blooming

[lone moss]

Fixed all my Starbursting/ blooming issues, literally brought in a red dot to the optometrist’s

[echo cairn]

A worth while upgrade

[sharp oyster]

Is that FDE pistol a Sig?

[sacred tree]

with a glock slide?

[olive meadow]

You and me both my friend

[livid holly]

Ew god no

Fuck Sig

At least new sig

It’s a Tisas PX-9

[livid holly]

Not a Glock slide either

[sharp oyster]

Lol are the newer Sigs that bad?

[livid holly]

Bro…

Do you live under a rock

[sharp oyster]

I heard of some firing on their own but idk about EVERY model of Sig

[livid holly]

The P365 is notorious for NDing on its own and that covers most of their user base

My ship had one ND

[sharp oyster]

Yikes

[livid holly]

The 8.6 is proving to be a complete joke and does everything the AR15/AR10 does but shittier and is heavier

The MMG as far as I know still hasn’t been implemented

[sharp oyster]

I only had experience shooting a p229 for a brief period in my life. So i guess they've fallen on reliability.

[livid holly]

Their LMG also hasn’t but I could be wrong

Basically everything from Sig lately has been a huge joke and not at all what they were chalked up to be

But now the military has to suffer with the M18s until they all inevitably break and are replaced

30 years down the line

[sharp oyster]

Wow. that new high tech battlerifle has been failing you mean?

[livid holly]

Yes, it’s almost like we have a dedicated .308 platform that does the same shit but is lighter and doesn’t have the issues that the Sig does

[sharp oyster]

damn

so this is trash then?

i heard about concerns regarding added unnecessary weight due to that caliber

and holding less ammo

[silk rapids]

I’m sorry but 365’s aren’t standard issue lol I think ur referring to 320’s/M17/M18’s

There’s a clear difference

[modest hatch]

6.8

[silk rapids]

M8’s are a thing now

[modest hatch]

They will likely be short lived

[modest hatch]

They also are already behind on the optics

[silk rapids]

Certain units like the 101st are running eotechs and MAWLs on the carbine versions now

Some razor HD’s thrown into the mix too

[silk rapids]

The 250 is already implemented lol

[thorny flame]

the 250 seems great

and/or the sig LMG

big improvement

[sharp oyster]

So I guess Google Gemini was right saying that it was/is reliable lol

[thorny flame]

do you know how much money the govt has spent on this

lol

[sharp oyster]

Too much probably

[thorny flame]

probably half a billion dollars in 6.8 manufacturing capacity alone

[sharp oyster]

Not a bad looking rifle though. Magazine reminds me of the SCAR-H.

[modest hatch]

The point of moving to 6.8 was having the scope to increase hit probability. They are already behind on scopes and even if they doubled production they still won't meet the deadline

[thorny flame]

i think the contract, as it's set up right now, is 250k actual weapons

army is probably half that

unclear if they'll build the other half

[silk rapids]

It’s being replaced by 25rd lancers on the unit level

[silk rapids]

They are being loose when it comes to the optics, it might set a precedent

[thorny flame]

i think there's a good snow shot floating around too

[silk rapids]

Which is a good thing

[sharp oyster]

You mean the mag in the xm8 column?

[thorny flame]

it's because the vortex laser thing was a failure

until they can fix it

[silk rapids]

Yup

[sharp oyster]

nice

[silk rapids]

I’ve honestly seen more eotechs on the M8’s especially with the recce guys

[thorny flame]

the XM-157 to be clear

not the 1-10 AMG

[scenic jetty]

That rifle shows the army learned nothing from Vietnam

[sharp oyster]

im surprised they used the XM8 name. Cuz that was from a different rifle at one point. from H&K

[modest hatch]

Justin Taylor put out a video recently covering the lack of new optics

[silk rapids]

It’s a military designation

[sharp oyster]

Makes sense

[silk rapids]

Kinda like M110 is a Knights SR-25 while the M110A1 is literally a G28/417

[scenic jetty]

That gun gives me bf bad company 2 vibes

[sharp oyster]

oh yeah lol

[silk rapids]

I mean it is in bad company 2 lol

[thorny flame]

likely see more of this type of shit like the URGI wears

[scenic jetty]

@silk rapids @sharp oyster miss that game honestly

[sharp oyster]

I played it when I was younger and it definitely made an impression on me. The jokes and all lol.

[sharp oyster]

And it looks cool but also cumbersome. But maybe that's an acceptable tradeoff for having more power.

compared to the 5.56

[silk rapids]

If there’s one thing I regret it’s not being able to try out to see if the magpul D-50 works with it

[thorny flame]

i'm sure if army wanted to magpul would make one

[modest hatch]

It's a lot more weight

[thorny flame]

the 308/6.5 guns have always been in the mix

[sharp oyster]

you held one?

[thorny flame]

it's lighter than a 417

[silk rapids]

The 6.8x52 is actually lighter than the 7.62x51

[sharp oyster]

is 308/6.5 the same? just different units of measurement?

[thorny flame]

no i just mean other large frame rifles in inventory

[silk rapids]

I have, I tested the first gens in Benning lol, and the 308/7.62 version too

[sharp oyster]

cool

[modest hatch]

No. Im poor and lack the friends crazy enough to buy one

[thorny flame]

SR25s, the CSASS, the scar

MRGG etc

[sharp oyster]

lol im jobless atm so its no biggie

[thorny flame]

https://www.knightarmco.com/38661/shop/commercial-firearms/sr-25/sr-25-k7

type shit

[silk rapids]

We had the Sig Tango 6T’s on em

[sharp oyster]

yeeeap. it's a nice looking rifle. The different shades of FDE look cool.

[silk rapids]

This one is a 7.62x51 version we were testing and using for the best ranger competition back in 2024

[modest hatch]

But you can pull stats. The M7 is roughly 2lbs more than an M4. The new fancy optic is 3lbs. Lastly 6.8 is heavier than 5.56 and you carry less of it.

[sharp oyster]

that's the trade off for you

is it in Tarkov?? lol

i dont have the game yet, im just a fan haha

[modest hatch]

The program was dependant on having the new optic to make up for the less ammo by increasing hit probability and they are behind on that by a significant margin.

[sharp oyster]

yeah i remember seeing a short documentary on that a while back on yt

that built in scope technology

[modest hatch]

Because that optic isn't just for the new rifle and lmg it's supposed to be standard issue for everything

[silk rapids]

They are trying to change doctrine from just pray and spraying your M4 in one direction to relying on the 250 and 240’s for suppression now, these folks at the AMU and the infantry school have been working on this for a couple of years now.

[sharp oyster]

interesting

[thorny flame]

this has always been the goal, but the issue is how to solve this for people who aren't shooting as much as rangers or other cool guys

that and trying to unify a fire control system

which is very doable now

financially at least

[silk rapids]

Yeah for sure, I’m seeing a transformation within the army though to be more combat focused and more range time thanks to a certain SecWar lol

[sharp oyster]

no comment lol

[silk rapids]

His first step is to get rid of the fatties I guess

lol

[thorny flame]

nothing is a substitute for round count

but point and click fire control is good at least

[silk rapids]

Standards are changing so much these days,

[sharp oyster]

well maybe the us military will implement those robot dogs with guns like china is already doing. that looks so sci-fi but nah. it's already here lol

[thorny flame]

you can see how good the stuff like the maztech is

at normie costs

we're pretty much at the limit of what you can do with small arms

the final piece of exodia is wind reading, and that tech is just too expensive

for normies atm

[sharp oyster]

https://youtube.com/shorts/bSKkGcamuRY?si=EpXx7SQi5yeyikEK

[modest hatch]

I mean everyone is already moving to drones

[thorny flame]

i think you'll start to see more of these, too

[sharp oyster]

yup

Ukraine showed the world how capable they can be

still showing lol

[modest hatch]

What's been interesting is watching the development of 556 anti drone rounds that has come from it

[silk rapids]

@thorny flame when I was at Benning I was noticing HK trying to pry their way into the Army’s good graces lol, makes sense too considering their US location is in the same city

[thorny flame]

it's unclear to me where this relationship went wrong

[silk rapids]

The M110A1 underperformed for one

A lot of sniper sections fought to keep their knights

[thorny flame]

i don't know that this was HK's fault

just a vibes assessment, but feels like a lot like what happened to the M110

not that HK couldn't produce a rifle, but more around weird contract requirements

[scenic jetty]

Yea but the army’s standard of “fat” was uh not good

[silk rapids]

You were in the corps right?

[scenic jetty]

Army

[thorny flame]

they were trying to do the DMR thing for like 20 years

and they select the M110A1 and afghanistan ends kind of abruptly

[scenic jetty]

Define who’s a normie and who’s not

[silk rapids]

Ohh nvm then but yeah they started implementing a CFT on top of the AFT like how the corps is doing it now

As of this month

[thorny flame]

people who are not the department of defense

you can just buy the maztech right now

[scenic jetty]

I’ll just learn how to get better at using mils on a scope

[thorny flame]

pretty affordable

[scenic jetty]

I’ll put it this way I was 205 and could pass a pt test but always had to get taped

Essentially you had to be a twink to not get taped

[silk rapids]

They changed that too, everyone is getting taped now regardless

Nightmare for NCO’s like me which means we gotta do a whole company in blocks

[silk rapids]

I really need to get need to get into legit PRS

The most I’m doing is accurizing an AR

[thorny flame]

just a matter of spending the money

you could shoot in tactical with an accurized AR if you wanted to

[silk rapids]

I’m fucking around with this basically a Frankenstein with G$ internals

[thorny flame]

there's been some cool gas gun matches popping up

[scenic jetty]

Honestly I’m not surprised anymore with the decisions they make

[thorny flame]

kind of fucky locations tho

[silk rapids]

Also had a fucking vortex range finder so I just slapped it on there

[scenic jetty]

Okay were at 1

2 how much do they cost

[silk rapids]

I need to shoot more in eastern WA for those long fields, pretty limited on this side of the mountain

[scenic jetty]

Cause if it’s like Clint’s classes it’s not made for the average American

[silk rapids]

We have a spot near Olympia where we do our meets

[silk rapids]

We assembled a whole door and some shit up that mountain then blew it up when we’re done

[thorny flame]

yeah they have a bunch of ranges out east there

the idaho ranges are so beautiful

[silk rapids]

Since we didn’t wanna take it back with us

[scenic jetty]

Looks like fun

[silk rapids]

Our meets consist with a bunch of of military, cops, competition shooters and some regular joes, camp out there for a whole 3 day weekend and just vibe

The night shoots are the best part lol

[scenic jetty]

Up in Washington state ?

[silk rapids]

Yeah lol

[scenic jetty]

Nice

[silk rapids]

We got people driving from all over, as far as Oregon and Idaho

[scenic jetty]

There is an area out near Fargo were there go to do stuff like that

[silk rapids]

Last meet we had like 50+ people and the one before that was Halloween themed and it was 100+ and we were wearing silly ass costumes doing all that shit

[scenic jetty]

Sounds awsome

Would like to go to one sometime

[silk rapids]

Yeah dude if you can find a group to shoot with do it, as long as they aren’t the crazy types

[scenic jetty]

Groups are hard to find online or near me

Majority of the time I shoot alone or with my buddy and roommate when there able

[lunar marsh]

Used to do lots of long range shooting out in Wenatchee area

[silk rapids]

They closed down a lot of spots it’s hard to find em

[lunar marsh]

Never got taped but I was always thinner at 6’ 170# could hump a shit load for miles and run like the wind. Extended scale PT……now I’m old and busted lol

My 12 mile ruck time was 2 hours. Now I don’t even want to drive 12 miles

[silk rapids]

The popular thing to do nowadays is the Norwegian foot march

It’s 18 something miles

For a badge you can ear on your dress blues

[lunar marsh]

Ya I recently read about that. Definitely would have been something I would have been into back then

[livid holly]

Thank you, I’m not a grunt, we still use the M4 in the navy

Another massive thing finally done though, finally galvanized and rebuild the remnants of both my computers and threw them into the new cases I’m going to use. My old build stripped of basically everything but a 500gb boot drive and its other internals (cpu/ram/GPU for a potential streaming pc and then my now main computer that’s my AM5 build that’s in the ROG Helios

https://pcpartpicker.com/user/KSG12Thomas/saved/#view=s8Vyqs

Basically this but I haven’t set the peripherals up yet and need to add/remove fans to it

[astral thorn]

I had a couple of guys here do it, they came back a bit broken

[round sentinel]

Didn’t stop the mil from changing it from the M5, avoiding M6 and going to M7

Since KAC has M5 and LWRC has M6

[round sentinel]

@lone moss trying my hand at a commercial AR rail kek, how’s that make you feel

[lone moss]

Okay neko give me quad rail fsb rail for my 12.5 middy

[round sentinel]

Def could kek. The way the extrusion profile is set up, I could absolutely easily make it a quad

And diff lengths

[carmine tide]

I just had to explain to a polish guy reselling acogs what ITAR is

[lone moss]

Hell yeah I want an fsb rail for that gun so bad as I don’t wanna get rid of the slickside a1 upper but still want fsb and quad

[round sentinel]

Oh wait on the A1

So you are stuck to like. Arms

Does centurion do one

[lone moss]

You know good question

[round sentinel]

Yeah they do

I just checked

[soft jay]

Optics fall under that?

[carmine tide]

Depends on optic

Acogs are

[round sentinel]

Yeah, cause they were military issued

That’s where the issue comes from

[carmine tide]

basically anything with a government contract

[round sentinel]

Ayup

[livid lintel]

Why is ts peeling xps3-0

[sharp oyster]

Anyone in the US pocket carry a Ruger LCP Max by any chance?

[proven badger]

My 90 year old grandpa

[lofty osprey]

im curious as how effective this design would be at reducing deflection on the barrel nut.

[empty crystal]

Swapped my Anderson for a Saint. I’m loving this gun! Any recommended changes to the setup?

[round sentinel]

Tbf I’m not chasing barrel nut deflection or platform accuracy. I’m chasing rail rigidity itself

[lofty osprey]

could be a positive secondary benefit

[round sentinel]

Spuhr is the tism creature chasing anti deflection upper designs

I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s better off than most rail systems due to the ‘bending’ or flexing point in the rail being past the barrel nut

Same way arms was

These style systems are such peak

Did also try a version with a full length top rail behind the FSB before I did some geometry optimizations

[sharp oyster]

What does he think of it?

[lunar marsh]

Still on the hunt for an old Armalite or reproduction H&R toob upper to stay with the 90s Delta theme

[golden marlin]

Get rid of the o light

[red salmon]

What’s yall’s opinion on AC unity mas

Mags

[red salmon]

Like this one

?

I think a buddy mine has one on a bushmaster ar from the 90’s of early 2000

[golden marlin]

I mean if you're getting their clone mags and all that they're pretty solid

I've used some of their other ones before they started doing clone mags

I just hate the looks of their other mags

[red salmon]

Just saw a few tat look ok

[golden marlin]

They're 60 rounders are meh

[golden marlin]

Like I've been meaning to get their ak12 and 15 mags

[red salmon]

I want 103 mags

[silk rapids]

It’s not that bad, 5 hrs is plenty of time for an 18 miler

[carmine tide]

I'm trying to work my way back to doing a 10

Currently able to max out at 8 miles with 60lbs

[sharp oyster]

If I ever went hunting some day. I'd buy this one lol.

[lunar marsh]

Yes exactly what I want. They only made 100. Didn’t sell great but now finding one on private market is virtually impossible

[lunar marsh]

I think my fastest/longest ratio was 25 in 7 hours. It hurt

[timid belfry]

Yall see this?

The bottom one is pretty cool, but a lot of the changes are neat

[red salmon]

No shit so we are maybe getting former Soviet block shit in again from everywhere besides Russia?

[timid belfry]

Looks like it

[round sentinel]

There’s a couple useless and dumb things but overall a lot of good shit

[round sentinel]

Dual use is the even bigger deal

[proven badger]

What are the implications there?

[round sentinel]

Stuff like STG-57’s in Switzerland converted to semi could be imported

At least in theory

[thorny flame]

i don't think this guts the sporting clause though

would be curious to see what prompted this item in particular

maybe import of normal ass HK barrels though, which would be nice

[round sentinel]

Yeah. It doesn’t

But bare receivers theoretically can

[thorny flame]

or 922r but that's whatever i guess

[round sentinel]

922 isn’t real

[thorny flame]

obv count on the atf trying to ratfuck you

[carmine tide]

This image is gayer than @round sentinel

[thorny flame]

you, the joke etc

half the reason all these cases are on the books is because people are trying to troll the ATF with their 80IQs

[round sentinel]

Ayup

[thorny flame]

or just doing straight fraud, vickers et al

🤠 i'm the sheriff now

gib machine gun

[fringe prawn]

brb gonna go machine and sell some auto key cards

[scenic jetty]

But trolling the atf is based

[red salmon]

I’m not smart enough to understand that portion, I just understand we can get more ak’s and 7.62

[timid belfry]

I know someone who submitted a bunch of fake forms and got banned from the site LOL

The best part, is some of them got approved before he got banned

He submitted like 60 of them

"what is the cure for such disorders? Beatings."

@round sentinel you might like this video

[thorny flame]

i like the ATF more than these "gun people"

[scenic jetty]

hmm odd

[lunar marsh]

I understand the need for the ATF when used properly. I worked close with them quite often while enforcing federal gun laws against violent repeat felons. I don’t care for the over reaching part of the ATF

[sharp oyster]

I wonder if bump stocks are still legal in the US. Then again who am i kidding, course it is lol

[thorny flame]

you just haven't had to interact with these folks

i'll refrain from the term "people" because i wouldn't give them that much credit

[fringe prawn]

I feel like they're a useless relic of prohibition and they need to have any legit duty they served absorbed into the FBI and the rest disbanded honestly.

Id love to disband the ATF, DHS, and DEA all in one swoop

[scenic jetty]

just odd your even saying you like the atf

[thorny flame]

more about the quality of the persons

your average ATF agent isn't spending their time printing glongs

i wish the agency was more serious and less political cudgel but them's the breaks

[scenic jetty]

i mean i really could care less about someone printing that

have the shit they enforce is unconstitutional af

[thorny flame]

you'll be disabused of your libertarian sensibilities eventually

[scenic jetty]

so you think i should believe in the atf enforcing unconstitutiona laws then

[lunar marsh]

I’ve spent quite a bit of time working with both the ATF and DEA. They serve a legitimate purpose

[cold hill]

they serve israel

[round sentinel]

LMAO

[round sentinel]

Especially once we take off the rose tinted firearm hobby glasses

The ATF does a ton of good in their other divisions

Yknow, like ensuring safety standards in alcohol production and explosives use in construction etc

[severe juniper]

People always talk about ATF but not about ABC.

All American Boys Club

[fringe prawn]

Couldn’t the FDA take alcohol production and Department of Labor handle explosives. Not sure why we need a whole three letter agency to handle a few niche things. They existed to nab the mob. I think they got Capone already we’re good.

[fringe prawn]

That’s the US government in general. All hail president Yahu

[carmine tide]

post guns

[lunar marsh]

Can’t

[lunar marsh]

Nothing he can articulate

[fringe prawn]

It was a wave of reactionary bs after 2001 that made Americans give up their rights in droves in response to one terror attack and it now costs us 120 billion annually for little to no benefit plus another police state apparatus to mess with Americans and trample our constitutional rights

[lunar marsh]

I’m curious what constitutional right of yours is being trampled

Only because nearly every entity that currently makes up DHS existed before 9/11. They now just fall under a single organization titled DHS that work closer hand in hand. DHS is nothing new or a reaction to 9/11

It’s restructuring was a result of that and reshaped its overall mission but it definitely didn’t create DHS

[true mist]

I love the memes but im with you on this one

in my experience working with federal law enforcement, theyre lasered in on some horrible people, human traffickers, the cartels, potential mass shooters, etc, they arent the "fun police" who spend their careers trying to take away from hobby shooters

I think the constitutional absolutist perspective is an unrealistic one in the face of modern threats

there's a balance that I think we're on the wrong side of right now, but there is undoubtedly a balance

[fringe prawn]

and they need that big a budget because?

I could easily live with without TSA

[lunar marsh]

The guys I was working with weren’t messing with piddly little guys illegally SBR shit. Their focus was on violent repeat offenders that were felons doing their third armed robbery and looking to be put away federally. The DEA guys I worked with weren’t messing doing deals for dozens of kilos related to cartel movement and not Johnny blade selling 20$ crack rocks on the corner.

[fringe prawn]

and ICE

[fringe prawn]

thats only because local pds like you do most of the infringement for them lol

[true mist]

exactly

[lunar marsh]

lol. Tell us you know nothing about constitutional law without telling us

[lone moss]

This is rather funny

[fringe prawn]

Yeah man the 4th 1st 2nd and 5th are definitely well interpreted by courts and local police unions

[blazing temple]

[lunar marsh]

You’re probably the guy that yells I know my rights while having no idea what rights are allegedly being violated lol

[fringe prawn]

I don’t talk to cops at all lol

[lone moss]

No 3 letter agency is good for America regardless of what they try to do or what they stop, atf did Waco, ruby ridge and operation fast and furious, dhs is a fucking joke currently as well as ice and the fbi. Government overreach and shady shit that the government has done for the past 80 years doesn’t just go away

[fringe prawn]

nah bro we need to lick boots back the blue brother. I love 2A infringement

[lone moss]

I don’t even have an issue with local pds tbh, just feds

I have an issue with local pds.

[edgy kestrel]

[fringe prawn]

“will not comply!” “don’t do illegal stuff” the absolute state of gun guys in 2026

A thing that’ll never happen with either side of politics rn

[lone moss]

Hell yeah

[round sentinel]

[lone moss]

Getting closer to a reality tbh though, weed got rescheduled, and atf laws are changing, closer in history than ever tbh

[edgy kestrel]

Just as the founding fathers intended

[round sentinel]

Except for the part where we are seeing a redefining of MGs and anti lgbt legislation constantly

[blazing temple]

I support neko having a belt fed

[round sentinel]

The current atf thing is a mixed bag and most of it was started under Biden anyways

[lone moss]

Yeahhhh rocky road with some bumps but we are on the right path

[round sentinel]

The good parts at least

[round sentinel]

I’ll be honest, I care way more about individual rights than muh gun rights

Obv I’m die hard into guns, but the individual rights matter a fuck ton more

[proven badger]

We need more ICE

[round sentinel]

[edgy kestrel]

The gov needs a darn good rework that’s for certain

[round sentinel]

[fringe prawn]

A lot of fed supporters in here will clamor for that

[blazing temple]

I quite like sparkling ice myself

[round sentinel]

Honestly this group isn’t extreme right slimey like most gun circles

[lone moss]

I agree but the gun rights also protect the individual

[fringe prawn]

imagine tripling your budget and still deporting less illegals than Obama lol

[lone moss]

They go hand in hand imo

[round sentinel]

Oh yeah absolutely they do, unfortunately with the state of the government, it’s sorta one or the other

[proven badger]

Yes, that's one of my main reasons for not liking Trump

[edgy kestrel]

The 1st and 2nd amendments are definitely the most important ones if we intend to keep the rest

[proven badger]

He half ass'ed all of his campaign promises and then gave in

[edgy kestrel]

It’s kinda a shame

[fringe prawn]

unfortunately gun rights have been absolutely chained to the most cringeworthy policy alive

[lone moss]

Man I’m gonna sound like a such a hippy saying this but less government and people just need to be nicer to each other

[round sentinel]

You mean the campaign based on slandering and blaming everyone else

[round sentinel]

Based and real

[round sentinel]

[lone moss]

Pig fucker politics

There definitely is a lot of blame to go around

but Trump is not excluded from that although he thinks he is

There’s only two people they blame tho

‘Muh liberals and trans people are evil and to blame’

Every speech

Every single one they bring it up

So good at blaming the 1% we are even blaming the 1% of the mentally ill

[lone moss]

You know, that’s really only the far ass right wing people, majority of republicans I talk to no longer really give a shit about the gay rights stuff other then the really die hard maga peeps or boomers, it’s a shame that gets said out loud over what really happens

[round sentinel]

Oh yeah absolutely

Issue is that it is the super far right in power

[lone moss]

For sure

[proven badger]

ehhhhhhh

Trump is definitely not super far right

[round sentinel]

I’m well aware the average republican doesn’t care, that’s the land I’m from

It’s okay to be gay just don’t make being gay your whole thing

I’m also not hardcore pro life. I don’t give a shit if you want to abort pregnancies. I just don’t think it should in any way be govt funded or subsidized. If you want it you pay for it.

There genuinely might not be a single person of our generation who knows the trade

Also happened to be an Izhevsk but 1942 production

Really good condition too but the bolt felt……gravely if that makes sense

Way rougher feeling while moving but was also a lot easier to move than mine

[unique fjord]

Mosin and quality aren’t mutually exclusive

My bolt needs the tactical hammer every once in a while

Operates smoothly but just gets jammed after firing

Why are fun things too much money

[elfin dew]

ok. so when we petitioning to put that gun in the game?

[livid holly]

Mine is smooth but after it cools down too much or heats up too much it gets stuck

A lot

It does still have some cosmoline I haven’t been able to remove from internally on the bolt once you take it apart but yeah

I still don't see myself getting a Gen 6

I was having a conversation with one of my buddies the other night and some of the things I was curious about remain true about the Gen 6 mostly around the grip extensions

I don't see myself getting it

If they made the Gen 5 with the Gen. 6 texture I would buy that in a heartbeat but the configuration of the Gen 6 I'm not a fan of

[true mist]

how does it feel vs gen 5? i saw the ben vid where a lot of people say they prefer gen 6 with a backstrap

[lone moss]

Way way better

[true mist]

lukewarm ass take but i feel like if you already have a glock you like there isnt a reason to go to gen 6

I fell in love at shot

Here's my kind of problem with how they did the Gen 6

They changed the grip so instead of doing the same grip extensions they normally do

They instead made it so it was more of a palm swap

And I don't like that

Because a typical grip extension that Glock generally has it also does change your length of pull

While the new style doesn't really change length of pull or anything like that

[lone moss]

I think it feels much better due to that tbh lmao

Plus the beaver

It just repositions your grip

First Glock I’ve picked up and loved immediately

I can't stand grips like that because instead they more or less just dig into the lower section of my palm

Especially with a larger calibers

[lone moss]

Totally fair

Everyone is different

Like I experienced it the most with the 10 mm M&P

And I can't get behind it
