ITT: we discuss guns that are better than their pricepoint may be, regardless if it's high quality yet inexpensive (ie., Ruger Security Six), or just manages to not explode but was only $125, and why you think that may be.

I'm starting with the Taurus PT111. Though it pales to, say, my Grandpa's old Model 10-6 in finish, and isnt as accurate as my G17 or Beretta 92FS, it actually seems pretty solid.. as long as you dont get a lemon.

If I was to speculate, it succeeds because it is effectively a glock clone, as is its PT709 single-stack brother. I've seen them go for $200, not a bad poor-fag option.

Regarding to Taurus, I understand the hate, but personally had good experience, few failures and I don't mind them at all. Don't have any guns that I feel are terrible by Taurus, and I own a PT52 (.380, wife's gun), an m9 clone that shoots smooth enough, the PT92, and a .357 revolver. Overall, considering the price point, I'll buy Taurus again for sure. My wife has been asking for a Curve as a carry gun, might gift her in christmas.

Why do pistols need break in but ARs never do?

Is it just the nature of short recoil action?
>>
>>36117308
Recoil operated. That said, break ins to use the ammo the gun was designed for is bullshit. If it's meant to run NATO ball and you want to shoot 115 Tula sure, but if it's built for plinking it had better run plinking ammo.

No. Water is too dense for something like that to work. Much more effective to drop torpedoes from an airplane.

Recently obtained a 12ga, 9mm, and an AR is in the mail. Now I need a dog.

I'm not looking for an operator-tier breed. I just need a animal who will fight a pack of niggers with me in a pinch. Mostly I want an animal who's smart, loyal, and will help me obtain a gf.

I live alone in an apartment in a bad/poor neighborhood, but I hope to move to a better one soon (just got promoted). So a big dog puppy should have a decent yard within a year.

Is there any safe way to take a dog to a range? Are their ears too sensitive?

Should I wait until I have a house with a yard to get a dog?

What exactly would qualify that dog to engage niggers?
>>
>>36116860
>Teach it early to calmly pass/ignore other dogs and their owners.
Here is the deal where most owners fuck up pretty bad:
Dogs have communication rituals. If you let it go past the point of your imminent control, let it engage in a greeting-ritual between dogs; it is better to make the dogs do their thing (like playfully ruling out who is chad and who virgin). Any interferance past this point may spark a fight. I.e. the virgin may have sent a signal of dominance and chad wants to correct its record -but is being restrained in that very second. If chads frustration-tolerance/trigger-weight is low, he will try to clear it in a more aggressive manner, jumping in, attacking.

>frustration-tolerance
Teach it early and hard. Take away snacks, toys (Note: some dogs should not own toys), ignore it, …
The higher its frustration-tolerance, the more relaxed you can be.

Heck some are dumb enough to agree to marriage without ever meeting you in person, although I'm warning you right now that's a terrible idea.
>>36117087
You can pretend it's a sun tan.
Realistically we have fuckloads of Indians coming in but not because women are knocking each other over to marry them. They come on H1Bs (basically Visa for someone educated enough that there is no equivalent available for the job in America). This is EZ because in India corruption is everywhere and everyone takes bribes and the educational system is no exception. Accreditation standards are lax and for a couple thousand a school will happily fake some records that you attended for X years and passed all the classes necessary for a doctorate with perfect grades beginning to end. Half of these schools are just shacks that bought their accreditation and don't teach anything, but if one can get a job in America and send back a couple grand he can get all of his siblings and cousins to get the same fake degrees, then they come over too. Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of genuinely smart and well-educated Indian engineers. But there are clusters of completely clueless morons that got brought in by the planeload when their distant cousin in law got a supervisor position and sent back some money to have them "educated" with overnight masters degrees. Employers on this end have no way of verifying anything and as long as there is a core of competent engineers that do all the real work the rest can lay low and pretend to be useful.

I'm ranting, but I live in the silicon valley and this shit is infuriating. I've seen companies with 300+ engineers but only 10 doing any real work.

It's like having Brock Lesnar fuck up a 1st grade class worse then a shower with Sandusky would so that you can demonstrate how dangerous Brock Lesnar is. The Syrian military has been through 6 years of war and if you dropped them off in subsaharan Africa they'd conquer half of it before the world had time to respond. Hamas could probably conquer Uganda. They couldn't stop Joseph Kony in 30 fucking years.

this guy, Went through my safe and dug out my box of M14 original parts and found the receipts from when I purchased all my upgrade parts. The other part I couldn't remember was the national match spring guide rod, also made by Sadlak. I would also suggest an NM trigger pack(I never bought one because mine came with one from the factory). Also also, not a part per se, but get the milsurp cleaning kit, and a bolt roller greaser tool(not essential but it makes re-greasing the bolt rollers much less of a pain in the ass).
>>
>>36116623
The main thing is honestly just the weight distribution. It's all right by your shoulder and over your right hand, so it's not tiring to carry for extended periods of time. The 97 is also shorter and lighter than my 10.5" AR, even though it has a (sort of) full size barrel. And it breaks down just as, if not more, easily than my AR.

I didn't think I'd like the bullpup configuration very much until I got this rifle, and now I'm a huge fan. Definitely get both if you can afford it.

>>36116926
I was watching a review saying how the 97/a bullpup is easier to handle as you move, so when going to a tacticool range/course you have better control. I'll probably start with just one for now, but i hope have both for the future, i did like the idea of one, but the ergonomics of mag changes look worse than an orgy at an old-folks home.

It's really aggressive, I just handled some yesterday. Imagine 20 grit sandpaper but made of plastic instead of aluminum oxide.

That's stupid, you can't imagine that.

It's aggressive, but comfy. It's just like the grip on my M&P Shield .45 and my 80% Block. I like it a lot, it doesn't feel like it would tear clothes when carried but I guess time will tell. The VP9 has a texture like a Magpul or BCM pube grip, it's grippy but not as aggressive as the M2.0.

It's a HUGE improvement over the slippery old M&P frames, which are almost as slippery as P99 frames (which are very slippery as you know).

tl;dr Maybe pic related will help.

If you want to CYA, you'd better actually look up the specs, there's a minimum size of lettering, minimum depth, and a minimum number of digits, and I forget what all else. It's not just "a serial number".

As for what good it does -- like I said above, I don't actually think it's legally required at all, and ATF can't make up there damned mind whether it is or not. The main purpose of it is so that every time it goes through an FFL, they have a number to write down instead of getting confused and thinking you filed the numbers off. (But any FFL who's dealt with used guns for any length of time will have run into unserialized pre-68 guns before, so they really shouldn't be confused.)

>>36116841
No, the law requires an FFL if you're in the business of manufacturing firearms. Your hypothetical private-saling gangfag would still be breaking that, whether serial numbers were required or not.
>>
>>36116879
Buddy, that's what I'm fucking saying. You have to serialize as an obstacle to prevent you from going literal gangbusters on cheapshit garage guns. If you didn't have to serialize to sell, the FFL requirement would be completely unenforceable. Serializing doesn't just mean you slap a number on the gun, to be a serial number it has to be a unique number for every gun you manufacture.
>>
>>36116879
dude the govt can make up any reason they want youre best bet is to have your ass a covered as much as possible thats means etching the serial on the barrel, frame, magazine, bullet, etc whatever possible. infact its better your write than the buyers name, DL, mary his wife, adpote his son, give his wife a newborn then maybe youll own get probation
>>
>>36116903
Only FFLs and those making Title II toys are required to serialise. There is no other federal requirement to.
Serialising things would not be a deterrent to anyone making illegal guns. They would still only be charged with the manufacture for sale without an FFL.
>>
>>36116903
1. I don't see any way for them to catch you breaking the serialization requirement that doesn't also allow them to catch you for being in the business of manufacturing firearms without an FFL.

2. I don't see any way that following the serialization requirement makes it harder for you to arm all the gangs, or easier for them to catch you doing so.

But I'm glad ATF's on-again-off-again misinterpretation of the law makes someone feel happy.
