Real Guns

This makes shooting boring!

Not if you want to pad your kill/death ratio![/callofduty]

So I've been looking at (trans)portable/survival gun cleaning kit here & there, on & off. When I was on the Hk site, I noticed this kit:



On Amazon.

It looks pretty solid?

P.S. On the Hk site, I was looking at the P2000 SK(as a carry pistol). What do you guys think? I'm in love.

That is some Ghost In The Shell **** right there. Saito's hawkeye.

Just found out about Chiappa making a 9mm M1 carbine.

Odd little gun, but I kind of like it. Still, the original M1 is so much cooler.

Dang it, I think my target bullets are borked. I'm talking about the 168 grain Speer Sierra Matchking, I let my reloaded rounds roll on a perfectly flat surface and about 70% had wobbling bullets. Nothing extreme, but little things can have an enormous effect on accuracy. Checked other rounds with different projectiles, they didn't wobble even a tiny bit. Used the same reloading procedures so it cannot be caused by my reloading dies, it must be the bullet itself.

The bullet has a great reputation, yet I'm only getting mediocre accuracy with it. I wonder if the wobbly bullets is the source of the lack of accuracy. Hm.

Pretty? No, but it does look pretty cool, though.

Wait, were you asking me, or...

EDIT: OK, if you're trying to sell a brand new rifle on the market, a .338LM AR, why would you choose such a crapy picture? Some people are just too stupid to stay in business.

How to reload a PM (Makarov pistol) single-handely.

 

[a6m5]

Really light slide....... I'm pretty sure I'd end up shooting myself in the gut.

Or...... Maybe it's the best digital camo, EVER!

I wonder if there's such thing as Chinese counterfeit bullets. As the stories in the U.S. go, Chinese knockoffs of everyday items can be pretty convincing, and even the retail chains often fail to catch them....... Probably just poor quality control though.

 

[Slash]

If you can dream it Theres probably some knock off for it.

Anyone else watch CarniK Con videos? Language warning.

 

[Xavier2342]

Brett, I purposely logged on just to say thank you posting that video.

 

[a6m5]

Wow, it must be really good. I'll have to watch it later.

 

[Brett]

Brett, I purposely logged on just to say thank you posting that video.

You are welcome. Now watch more of his videos.

 

[a6m5]

It's pretty good, but it could use more guns & more blowing stuff up.

Still striking out on the .22LR from cheap retailers, did pick up a couple of .45ACP at $22 a box(Sellier & Bellot, never used them before). It's a decent price.

 

[Brett]

I picked up two boxes of CCI Stingers this past weekend. I have shot quite a bit of Sellier and Bellot ammunition out of the PPQ.

 

[a6m5]

Are there deals on 9mm anymore? This store I went to today had a boatload(numerous brands), but they seemed to have been $15.99 & up? My boxes of .45 for $22 were the cheapest for the caliber. As long as they shoot reliably, I'm happy.

 

[Rage Racer]

Sweet.

 

[Solid Lifters]

I did! That Sniper Training video was awesome! Especially the part about the math. So true.

My god, I laughed so hard I almost wet my pantaloons.

$16 bucks for a box of 9mm seems reasonable...?

9mm is still in the neighborhood of $12-16 per box for training ammunition. It has been around that price for the past few years.

 

[a6m5]

Ah. I haven't shopped for them in a while, so I was kind of wondering about it myself. When I had a 9, I aimed to get a box for $10. Most of the time, I want to say they were around $12-ish, but I don't remember for sure. If you can still find a box for $12 today, sounds like a deal to me. 👍

 

[Rage Racer]

Vat? Glorious Russian iron sights is not good enough for you? You think decadent capitalist optics vill help you, comrade? Nyet. Magnification is the opiate of the masses.

 

[SniperRed3]

The SA80 A2 anyone else had experience with it.

So broken not even HK could fix it.

 

[SniperRed3]

I think it's fine. The field strip is a nightmare every thing has to be done a certain way. Very accurate.

 

[a6m5]

I bumped into this video, never have watched a shooting competition before, so I decided to check it out.

They start off with a kid from China, which surprised me. Of course, with total gun ban in Japan(99.9% of civilians), I wasn't expecting to see Japan being represented...... what a shocker.

Video was long, but it was worth it. It seems they are shooting .22's.


Five rounds, five targets. Shooters have roughly four seconds.

Edit: Sometimes, comment section on these sites are just pure win. I was wondering how the U.S. wasn't represented in this competition myself:



👍
