General GunTuber thread

[Corn Flakes]

speaking from experience, i would be more concerned about the people who are entertaining the thought of ideological violence than the specifics about the weapon used to execute that thought. i've been to a lot of places where this sort of road ends up in, and it isn't a fun place for anyone involved, before or after.

This. The guns might be the tools they plan to implement their threats with, but without the shitty ideology and the intent they are harmless. The fact that they're even considering shit like that makes them dangerous enough.

In other worldly news, fuck-stick/InRangeTV supporter David Chipman's confirmation vote to head the ATF was supposed to be today. Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Dick(hole) Durbin (D) is holding over the vote for another week.

I’m stealing from someone else’s post, but if the Republicans had any balls at all they would have printed out that picture of Chipman posing with the Waco bodies and brought it with them for every day of the hearing.

Everyone: “The senate is about to confirm someone to the head of ATF that thinks that mass murder is a really cool form of gun law enforcement”

Karl: “Okay, but let me tell you how conservative gun owners are the real problem.”

One would think it would be easy for the Republicans to get the agency's file and see his badge picture from back then.

Republicans aren't interested in 2A rights though. They'll dress up and keep the theatre play going but ultimately they want to take your guns just as much as the Democrats, and that's why they're being so limp wristed on this and everything else.

 

[UVB-76]

To be fair, if they were to successfully cockblock Chipman it wouldn't necessarily be done for gun rights, it would be just to spite the Dems.

lmao Karl has been on youtube for long enough for him to have a clue on how copyright claims are enforced. On Spotify listens are counted by 30 seconds. A reasonable man might not assume that 19 seconds would steal a listen from a legitimate source, but when 30 seconds are worth money the record labels will not show mercy. To get a pass on fair use you have to either be doing music reviews or have an educational reason to play the song like Rick Beato does, and even then prepare to have to file counter claims against the bots.
Funnily enough I was thinking about old youtube channels and nigahiga popped in my mind.

ATF redefines Tommy Built G36 as a Machine-Gun... Karl: "This isnt the hill I want to die on" creates video documenting his compliance.

ATF to redefine frames/receivers and force FFLs to keep records indefinitely... Karl: Silence

ATF: Pistol braces are now stocks, making millions of lawful Americans into felons overnight... Karl: Silence

Uncle Joe selects gun grabber extremist David Chipman to head the ATF... Karl: Silence

Copyright claim filed against one of Karl's video... Karl: This is my hill worth dying for!

So he will soon be like the shape of a strap-on?

Listening for mention of reprinting his pops' Arisaka book, and/or his own.

I think they actually had more rebarrelled rifles than they did chamber plug conversions.

out of curiousity, some cursory research indicates that the chamber inserts were more common at the time the Mk 2 program was relevant, however later competition programs and other branches that used the re-barrel method made that a bit more common.

An Official Journal Of The NRA | 7.62x51 mm NATO U.S. Navy Garand Rifles

With the U.S. Army and Marine Corps receiving the bulk of early M14 rifle production, the Navy chose to convert .30-’06 Sprg. M1 Garands to 7.62x51 mm NATO, extending the service life of John Garand’s masterpiece.

kind of an interesting read.

Modernizing cold war guns is something that I find myself far more interested in than I thought I would be.

Modernizing cold war guns is something that I find myself far more interested in than I thought I would be.

It's natural, 7.62mm NATO still has a lot to offer as a rifle cartridge, even if 5.56mm NATO is overall more practical in most ways for that role. With modern approaches you can certainly make them more practical than back in the day, even if they won't be as aesthetically pleasing.

Good video, by the way, he's entirely right in that the G3, as sexy as it is, is a clunky fucking rifle in its handling.

I did that years ago with my CETME; it looked cool as fuck and made a fun prairiedog popgun. But holy shit.... the weight didn't improve, it weighed as much as my 249 did.

I used the cheap bipod to keep it out of the dirt, and removed the stock prior to sale. One of my friends pestered me endlessly for it because the G3 was his favorite CoD gun as a kid (fuck, I got old).

Edit: I was especially loathe to let this one go, even though it was too damn heavy. There was just something intensely satisfying about it; maybe it was the chunky recoil impulse, ability to launch brass into orbit (and leave perfect case imprints in plywood range barriers), or the fact that it was inordinately easy to make good hits with. In any case, for all the G3/CETME's shortcomings, it's still my own favorite cold-war battlerifle.
