We used leaded gasoline for a long time too.

Revolvers!
Mauser BK-27 aircraft revolver cannon from Czech Air Forces’ JAS-39 Gripen.

Decided to buy one of these through Aim. Arriving at my FFL on Monday. I finally decided on trying a 9mm carry gun. I'm unfortunately limited to 10 round mags instead of the factory 12, but MecGar makes 10s and relativity cheap on eBay. Not Magpul GL9 levels of cheap, but good enough for my now low budget.

Any recommendations on holsters? Also how can I tell if I need to replace the recoil spring?

>>109131

> how can I tell if I need to replace the recoil spring?

Just do it. They're cheap. Maybe do the hammer spring too. Get a new recoil spring for your P220 too.

How did you mount the Contour camera on your earpro?

>>108964
With safety wire, of course. The black plastic mount is I think the contour handlebar mount. Usually has a rubber strap.

  The good:
- Pistol shooting was on point
- Shootan with the homies, having a good time
- I was RSO with a pretty good squad
- No penalties

The bad:
- Forget how to hold-over for the rifle (derped on the rifle-clay part by holding low... should be holding high inside of 50 yards)

The ugly:
- My nemesis: The Roof Prop

The night before I was deciding if I should wear shorts or pants. The "feels like temperature" ended up being 97'F, so I brought shorts. After my encounter with the roof prop, I was walking around wondering why my leg hurt a little. Minor road rash.

>>109126
You may have fumbled with the rifle clays, but you sure made it up with the poppers on the next stage. Good job mayne

  >>109129
Thanks dude. I did a bunch of pistol dry fire practice the day before, and it really paid off. One thing, on that last stage with the steel shooting gallery, I could actually feel the difference in weight and recoil as my magazines emptied. I basically counted off the last 3 rounds before the slide locked back. Never noticed that before. Shit happens when you're in "the zone".

Regarding dry practice, when I was practicing with the pistol I was focusing on my grip and trigger pull... to the microscopic level.

- More tension on the ring and pinky fingers
- Get the beavertail centered into the web of the hand
- The force from the trigger pull is between the first knuckle of the finger and the middle of the web of the hand...

One other thing I practiced the day before was left shoulder rifle handling, including loading the rifle, and reaching behind my back to get the magazine on my left hip. That went so well at 1:28 in the video it's hardly noticeable.

If you've got a long drive, check out the Primary and Secondary modcast on Tactical Gamers. They're a bunch of MIL/LEO guys who got into competitive shooting to grow as shooters. One of the things they discuss is that competitive shooting does wonders for your "processing speed", and how instinctual handling of the gun frees your mind to process your situation and surroundings.

Ernest Langdon is on the modcast and describes his first USPSA grand master win. He said it was the slowest run he's ever had. Then when they read the time, he beat everyone. But in his mind, everything was in slow motion.

More Auto-5

Winchester Model 1897

And an extra for fun

OOoooohhh man, you can see the hammer bite in slomo.

>>109123
That thing bucks like hell. Looks like the brake does a good job of controlling muzzle climb.

>>109124
Did the thumb bandage have anything to do with the 1897 bolt?

>>109125
Git some!

>>109127
lol naw, I tore my thumb up at the knuckle after a cartridge got stuck on the lifter on the Auto5. I pushed upward on the stuck cartridge and the action ate my thumb

As you are a strict proponent of the ideal gas constant, you want to leave that CZ 82 be and get an '83 if you want something in .32 Auto.

- Drake's German WW2 Mauser HSc & Mauser Model 1934, both in 7.65mm (.32 ACP).

Random question, but will CZ-82 magazines feed .32acp reliably?

  >>109118
Good question.
Loading 7.65x17mmSR Browning into a double-column 9x18mm Makarov magazine may be problematic.

Bigger bullet for more mass.

https://thebiggamehuntingblog.com/6mm-creedmoor/

> consider the supersonic ranges of the three cartridges. This particular .243 Winchester load drops below the speed of sound around 1,150 yards, but the 6mm Creedmoor stays supersonic out until around 1,375 yards and the 6.5 Creedmoor doesn’t cross the sound barrier until around 1,450 yards.

6.5 CM will stay supersonic longer and is less affected by wind. But as always, everything is a compromise. 6.5 CM is a good tradeoff between velocity, bullet weight, ballistic coefficient (BC), felt recoil, and barrel life. You can drive a bullet faster with a super bottlenecked cartridge, but it will burn out barrels.

> I dunno how they want to penetrate modern ceramic plates with anything that a grunt can reasonably carry tho.

Yeah, then there's that problem. Although new types of bullets may do a better job.

That's still 6.5 and not 6.8 tho, why does the Army want 6.8 specifically? And why enlarge the diameter and not make the bullet longer? Would help with sectional density too.

>>109083
> That's still 6.5 and not 6.8 tho, why does the Army want 6.8 specifically?

That I don't know. I used 6.5 CM as an example because it's really popular and I've shot it like twice. (I'm not a PRS guy.)

> And why enlarge the diameter and not make the bullet longer? Would help with sectional density too.

6.5 CM already has really long bullets and still fits into a .308 overall length.

>6.5 CM already has really long bullets and still fits into a .308 overall length.

Yeah, you're right, probably due to geometry.

But surface area increases as the pellet burns if it's cylindrical and is burned from inside.

>>109074
Still not as much surface area as normal granules. Really, why would they make it the way you're suggesting? What's the advantage?

>>109079
More powder in the same volume, convenient to reload.

>>109080
It's only convenient to reload if you're only loading one bullet weight in one cartridge. It's less convenient when you have to buy a different pellet for every cartridge and powder charge. How would you even work up a load, buy a whole pack of pellets in every increment just to test a few? And you'd basically have to abandon bottleneck cartridges. And it would still burn slower due to surface area.

>>109086
I dunno, it seems like a great option for handloading, instead of having to load with a scale you just stick the right pellet and do he rest. And isn't slow burning powder beneficial for many loads? As for bottleneck cartridges, i thought you open the case up before reloading anyway, if you don't, then yeah, it's not worth it of course.

How a Texas plumber's truck wound up in ISIS' hands
Texas plumber Mark Oberholtzer has had to contend with tough clogs in his business, but probably none so formidable as to require use of a Soviet-made anti-aircraft gun.
After a jihadi in Syria tweeted a photo of a 23 mm twin-barreled autocannon mounted on a truck Oberholtzer used to own, it was his muddied reputation that needed repair.
“When that photo got tweeted and then circulated across the world, you knew pretty well that if you needed to get some plumbing done with an anti-aircraft gun in the back of ... the truck, maybe you ought to call ‘Mark-1 Plumbing,’ which is not what he intended,” said Robert Wilonsky, digital managing editor for the Dallas Morning News
It would seem Oberholtzer’s truck made the same journey many potential jihadis from the US make to get to Syria — largely through Turkey.
Oberholtzer is suing a Houston car dealership where he traded in the truck in October 2013. He's seeking more than $1 million in damages after the 2005 Ford F-250, which sold at auction the following month, was shipped to Turkey with decals still affixed. The truck eventually ended up in Syria, where it was outfitted with an anti-aircraft gun and used in the country’s civil war.
The truck, emblazoned with the name and phone number of Oberholtzer’s business, was featured in a tweet Dec. 15, 2014. It was first tweeted by the extremist group Ansar al-Deen. The next day, the photo was used in the closing segment of Comedy Central’s “The Colbert Report.” It also happened to be the show’s final episode, pulling in almost 2.5 million viewers, the largest audience in the show’s history. https://www.pri.org/stories/2015-12-15/how-texas-plumbers-truck-wound-isis-hands

What, someone installed the fun switch setting?

Is there a hole at the top (semi-auto) setting?
Is there a Full or Burst setting?

Read OP's post?

Was wondering if something was hidden behind the bang-switch in the OP's picture (the third position).

>>109031
Yes, there is. It was illegally drilled there by someone else prior to him obtaining it. OP obscured it because he doesn't want his doggos shot. He is now asking how to fill in the no-no hole and make it like it was never there.
