Tied Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Went shooting today. Got my sweaty hands on a C-96 among other thing but the main focus was a Chinese paratrooper SKS Was a plesent enough experience. Great thing about SKS's is being able to turn your brain off (better safety than AKs, though being abit eaiser to forget about, and a comfy magazine relise that just wants to be your friend) while not worring about getting dirt on it because its a precious VZ 58 and ohmygosh its the only one left this side of the volga who let the drunk old man get his grubby fingers on it Had 2 malfuctions both minor stovepipes (being that its an SKS it only can really fuck with one round at a time. And the first one was the last round) As much as i would like trigger Mech or Khand or whatever chink name he goes by these days autism, it had less to do with a Chinese boondogling of the rifles design and more to do with the fact that the magazine release was pretty fucking lose and that, for fucks sake, its a 50+ year old rifle And besides it wasnt the ammo, because fuck you thats why Regardless any malfuction on a weapon short of blowing my hand off is almost forgivable if i get to get my hands on some sexy ten round strippers which are as fun to load into the rifle as they are to put the contents of downrange. That with the smell of burning cheap lube and 50 year old chinse blood threw me back into a childlike joy of a kid with his cork rifle We also shoot some old live teargas cans. Which was fun and surprisingly safe Donward and Belesarius 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donward Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 I think stovepiping an SKS comes standard every time you fire one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoooSeR Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Operation of MVD and FSB of Republic of Kabardino-Balkaria, Nalchik, 15.01.2016. Leg protection, this is shield guy, i guess. Belesarius 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meplat Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Some of the Chinese imports to the U.S. were pretty funky, reliability wise. There were three or four versions of "paratrooper SKS" I've seen, some that took AK mags, some had really short barrels and no bayonet, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be confident in East German, polish or Soviet one, i cant help it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brick Fight Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 The real (NFA) versions are absurd fun. I still preferred the APS though, and if there was any justice in this world someone would offer a semi only version in 9X18 and 9X19. They're one of the few firearms whose guts interest me. I find the rate-reducer and extraction especially neat. If I owned one, I'd probably be tearing it apart all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoooSeR Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Devtac Japan Although they look like airsoft masks, these are ballistic, bullet resistant helmets. They did post several videos of the mask stopping .357 Magnum rounds. The configurations vary and Devtac does makes several models, some with more exposed sections which I think are used for airsoft. The mask in the first photo will be at SHOT Show 2016; their Ronin Level IIIA. They don’t list a price point since everything is through their Facebook page for the time being but some comments have mentioned the Level IIIA is around $1,400.

Toxn Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Thought 1: Tier 0 operators don't need peripheral vision. Thought 2: Given the history of dudes in face-concealing mask provided by films, I'd be very worried about joining any organisation which requires putting one of those on.

Khand-e Posted January 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Pfft, Japan clearly ripping off of Taiwan's Level IIIA face masks and getting credit because it looks like some dumb shit out of anime, as opposed to the more utilitarian/serial killer inspired designs of the ROCA.

Collimatrix Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Kimber apparently has a new revolver called the K6 in .357. Didn't know if you wanted to see that. Edit: Hognose says it looks like a Manurhin design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Hognose says it looks like a Manurhin design. Yankee Marshal who creams his pants over any revolver is sorely disappointed. Again, this isn't the 1930s and we don't need belly guns or something that gets put into a suit or coat pocket. So why have a revolver without a hammer? It makes no sense.

Khand-e Posted January 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 They also announced a .300 Blackout Tavor a couple days ago. If there's one gun you could make that would make me vomit up shit thinking of it and the people who would fanboy such a design, there it is.

Donward Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 So with that said, naturally Guns & Ammo is on it's knees, sucking the lube out of Kimber's bore in order to get that hot sticky advertising revenue all over their faces. http://www.gunsandammo.com/shot-show-2016/first-look-kimber-k6s-revolver/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
