If you want a tacky gun off the shelf, get the YEET Cannon. I recommend this one.

I am planning on getting a pistol I can hopefully concealed carry when get a permit for that. Currently, I’m considering the H&K VP9SK because I’m an H&K shill, but I am open to suggestions.

>>4091
What about the hkp30?

Don't think you can go wrong with any of the top brands anyways. Beretta, CZ, Glock, etc.

>>5073
And the best thing about it is that it has a very low bore axis and angled grip work to signigicantly reduce recoil because the more offset the barrel is from the axis of your arm the more it will rotate your arm upwards.

Just get a Glock. I've been through all this nonsense I've tried almost everything on the market. The Glock 19 is the best cc gun ever made and likely will be for a long time. Glock 19mos, get a dot and a light and you are good. You will not be able to shoot anything else better, as measured objectively by a shot timer.

>>5659
I've never fired anything less ergonomic than those boxy pig pistols. Literally anything but a block that isn't gonna blow upnin your hand. I despise those shitty little shit guns, no safety, throwin hot brass in my face, god damn.

Are sikh warriors\generals really the GOAT historical warriors that everyones forgets? or is that sikh propaganda itself? I think it's extremely pathetic they fought FOR -not against- the br*tish protestant soap-peddling, anti-Satti, anti-Aghori, anti-Sadhu nudity, anti-Sacrifice invaders. I KNOW they're not Vedic, but still extremely pathetic to side with (((westerners)))
Anyways; are stories or narratives of great battles, conquests, raids, small troop vs huge army fights, etc, about sikh warriors historically real? or is it religious basedslop?
>Gatka shows are pretty fun

>Are sikh warriors\generals really the GOAT historical warriors that everyones forgets?
Warrior-worship is reactionary-crap. All of the great "warrior" cultures are gone, defunct, dead. The Nepalese Gurkhas hire themselves out as foreign mercenaries because there's nothing else to fucking do in Nepal. The Sikhs are just another ethnicity these days with their own history and should be treated as such.

>>5616
Sikhs are progressive relative to vedism due to their anti-casteism

warrior culture is lame although the beard and turban combo looks sick as fuck. was on the train the other day thinking about how cool this guy looked in it and how he should be in royal dress in a court somewhere instead of wearing business causal at 8 am

I thought these Indian turban helmets were interesting.
supposedly they were indigenously developed and were found to be better at stopping larger rounds than regular helmets, and lighter, which made them ideal for counter-insurgency operations in Kashmir, and naga land

funny hypothetical: what if very blunt, hooked pikes were used to fight riot police using modified push of pike tactics? the hook for grabbing shields and blunt protrusion for pushing them back; rioters press together tightly with rear echelons supporting and pushing forward the most physically able pikemen at the front. batons and shields outranged, streets perfect for a line of pikes, cops can't do regular psychological intimidation because even if the front of the formation wanted to flee they couldn't. gambeson if layered heavily could probably withstand limited amounts of birdshot and rubber bullets. severe weaknesses would be flash bangs, gas, water hoses targeting the rear and of course cops learning to using pikes.

i think they would shoot you

For the sake of stability, using feet the shape of an elephant’s would make keeping a real mech much easier than having to deal with all the inadequacies of human feet. Granted, such a design would make these machines incapable of traversing rugged terrain, but like, why the hell would you put a mech on a mountain anyways?

most non animu mech designs already do this

How useful are handguns for war, revolution, personal protection, or in general? Why do soldiers in militaries even have handguns if they already have rifles which are better?

Anyways I have not ever even owned a firearm despite I could own one easily. But I would only take the shit off safety when it is pointed away from myself.

>>5739
>>5740
I mean, look at that word. Safety. It's a beautiful word. You're safe. Safe from not getting holes punched through your flesh. Keep that feature on until you are pointing it at the flesh you want to blow holes in.

I have owned some airsoft tho. and it's pretty easy to not shoot yourself. Same safety features. No need to shoot yourself.

Daily reminder to not buy Sig, their current batches are overpriced and prone to failures.
Obligatory youtube slop

This.
What's funny is that most armed crimes often use blunt force objects.

The ak is iconic, especially to leftist movements.
Feel free to talk about akms as well

the akm because the steel stamped receiver can be made with home tools. the only parts you have to buy are the barrel, the piston, and the spring (and maybe the iron sights)
actually, there has to be some ak variant where you can 3d print everything besides those key parts. why would you 3d print a gas operated gun? because recoil and blowback operation tend to fail when the user can't properly handle the recoil, and I want a twinks-only army

>>5614
The 74 is better. It has the same limitations you describe, but the ammo is being currently manufactured and is pretty plentiful. imho depends on if you're planning to shoot at armored targets. In this case, AKM. otherwise, 74

>>5612
74u's are so sexy but whenever i think about them i imagine an 80s mujahedeen going to southside la and being amazed at all the thugs with mini-dracos

Firearms are tools, they're best applied for certain circumstances.
AKM pattern rifles shoot 7.62x39, which is a heavier, slower moving bullet, better for damaging soft tissue and suppressing.
74's are higher velocity, less drop at distance, smaller bullet though.
I'd equip up anyone getting up closer and personal with AKMs and anyone farther back with 74's.

AKM was a pretty revolutionary design, the StG 44 but designed for cheap and rapid mass production.
The AK-74 was just the Russians realizing the US was right about recoil control and moving to a 5.56 clone.
>cooler?
Personal taste, I love krinks.
>more practical?
AK-74, the recoil control matters.
>more reliable?
No idea, it would probably come down to factory and year.

>A shotgun (also known as a scattergun, or historically as a fowling piece) is a long-barreled firearm designed to shoot a straight-walled cartridge known as a shotshell, which usually discharges numerous small pellet-like spherical sub-projectiles called shot, or sometimes a single solid projectile called a slug. Shotguns are most commonly smoothbore firearms, meaning that their gun barrels have no rifling on the inner wall, but rifled barrels for shooting slugs (slug barrels) are also available.

The shotgun is thought of as being an extremely basic firearm but it is also very versatile and powerful. It can shoot loads that allow you to hunt small game, large game, from birdshot to buckshot, to even rifled slugs that basically turn your shotgun into a rifle, also works good for home defense and even military applications (think WW1 trench guns).

People have a misleading sense of how much spread shotguns have especially in video games where they magically become ineffective after 10 feet meanwhile in real life hunters regularly kill animals with buckshot at far greater distances.

They only use them in the military and police for blowing off locks and hinges off, on doors.

>>5662
Not true at all. They are used for clearing tight buildings during warrant raids etc.

just throw a slug in there

>>5662
In combat situations, they are used for clearing out trenches and rooms with buckshot.
It was also used for anti-drone and close-quarter battle situations.
But, yeah, they are not very useful in combat; they are only useful in specific situations.

How do you buy a gun? Where do you buy it from? Do you pay in cash? Why do you buy a gun? Is it actually worthwhile or just a larp? Should you start with a glock and then add an AR once you're more comfortable/knowledgeable? Please help.

Depends on where you live, I'm just gonna assume you're from the US. You pay with your credit card. I buy a gun to protect myself. I think it's worth it, it's the greatest weapon ever made and easily accessible. I think you'd be a fool to not own one.
Buy an ar15 first. What's your budget? I'll let you know which to get. Next buy some 30 round pmags, here's the link
https://magpul.com/pmag-30-ar-m4-gen-m3.html?mp_global_color=118
Get some 223 ammo to train with and some 556 for actual application.
Next you can buy a pistol, you sound like you're looking at a glock. Get a glock 19 or a 26 if you want something concealable and get a glock 34 if you don't care how big it is and want the most accuracy.
Buy 9mm hollow points, they expand causing more damage to people. Also get a good holster. It's 100% worthwhile.

You guys know you get put on a list when you fill out Form 4473 right?

>>5723
thats literally the point of a form. to list/categorize/acquire information to make a list.
>you know your putting yourself on a list when you put yourself on a list
