General GunTuber thread

[WinchesterWhiskey]

Can someone tell me wtf is going on with /k/ right now? I've been away from the board for a couple years and the pro-uki circlejerk going on there is a bit confusing to me. Is it shitposting? Brigading? Counterjerking? Or is that actually the current state of /k/ posters now?

Honestly, it seems like it's gone back to 2014 posting where people seem to actually be discussing shit. The board just seems like they're talking about invasion shit and things related to the invasion.

I dunno if flares are going to get the job done.

The flammability of fursuits aside, the Manville guns were advertised as 'Gas Projectors'
They're clockspring revolvers, so you can launch a whole bunch of (large bore and very low pressure-) teargas shells in rapid succession. They were made in sizes like 25mm, 37mm, and 40mm, certainly they can launch flares, but that was never the main point, it was always for riot control.

I might be optimistic, as some fursuits will no doubt be filthy and crusty enough that the target barely notices the teargas, if at all.

EDIT: This is wrong, the later 37mm and 40mm ones are the Hawk MM-1, which are derived from the Manville. Apparently Manville proposed a 37mm grenade launcher during WW2 but got no interest, probably too ahead of its time.

Fucking page didn't update.

Depends on how "old school" you want to get. Drake works with C&Rsenal and lives on their Discord channel

Didn't know that.

BOOF/Ivan disappeared for whatever reason - some said he got doxxx(xx)ed since everyone knew he worked in Minnesota and outed as a lolifag,

He probably left because /k/ got much less fun in recent years. Years back I heard he went on OperatorChan, but I have no idea if he still does.

Johnny Labs faked his death after shitposting a journey to acquire StG44s in Syria,

I forgot who that guy was.

Meplat ascended into heaven,

He went to OperatorChan MANY years ago. If you're meaning he's dead, that's new to me.

that one wheelchair guy lives on Tumblr jerking it to faggots and trannies - not sure about the rest.

If he's the dude I'm thinking of, he killed himself years ago.

The NFA was originally enforced by the IRS, we need to return to those days.

Holy shit, NO, go ride a bike without a seat.

Yes, exactly. Lot of fucking propagandizing about Ukraine going on in the media, but RUSSIA STRONK/CHINA STRONK autism has been beyond obnoxious for years on /k/, with autism lords like Armatard and the odd Wumao.
You can argue Ukraine isn't what the media says it is, but it also isn't what Putin says it is, and this is probably seen as an opportunity by many to take a fat shit on some of the board's bad posters, while also focusing strongly on a very high profile current war, which is /k/ by definition.

Besides, there's plenty of sentiment in strong support of things like Azov, so it isn't even leftoid bullshit.

Yep, I'm old enough to remember the clankening. I also notice the old fag tier discussion of Russian tanks, transport, and supplies. All of this seems like a throwback to it is all.

Didn't know that.

He's still really active, but the C&Rsenal community is filled a bunch of spergy kids and europeans so it's not for casual lurking.

He probably left because /k/ got much less fun in recent years. Years back I heard he went on OperatorChan, but I have no idea if he still does.

After his tripcode was compromised everything had to be taken with a grain of salt. I think some anons suspected his business was being harassed but it's unsubstantiated.

I forgot who that guy was.

Chechen guy that had basement gunsmithing/DIY threads, taught people how to weld with a car battery and such. Also known as "The Salesman 2.0"

He went to OperatorChan MANY years ago. If you're meaning he's dead, that's new to me.

He just left OpChan in December.

If he's the dude I'm thinking of, he killed himself years ago.

Not that dude, this dude, whose name is "Todd," was part of the upsurge of unhelpful tripfags and after he posted his wheelchair it became his gimmick. Only reason I know is because of someone posted his shopped wheelchair and I followed the breadcrumbs - he and other useless trips are on tumblr, one guy trooned out and the others are unremarkable and boring.

How did C&Rsenal end up with that sort of fanbase? It can't be all just the guinea pig memes.

Let's be honest, the only way to truly wipe out the furry menace is with fire.

I propose a timeless classic.

C&Rsenal is reddit and /k/-adjacent and that invites the kids and euros who also post in those sorts of communities.

You're talking about the wheelchair guy who goes by "coffeandspentbrass" and the one that trooned out is Mints?

C&Rsenal is like FW where they focus more on guns from a mechanical/historical stand point rather than practical use, and so nogunz eurotrash and autists can more easily identify with that content. Especially since both attempt to be as apolitical and academic as possible.

This isn't bashing either channel, I like their stuff, but like any historical focused content it attracts that sort of audience. The difference between something like C&R/FW and something like say HEMA for instance is that there is no modern day political significance that can be assigned to ancient history whereas firearms are still a modern topic.

This might be closer to a 1:1 correspondence than you think. HEMA attracts the same insane shitlibs and hipsters that accessible gun content does.

True but no one takes them seriously outside of that very small sphere since most people in that field (at least in my own personal interactions with them) realize that their field of study doesn't really matter or effect the modern world at large. Of course these are face to face interactions and not terminally online losers getting angry in youtube comments/videos.

Yeah this seems about right. My experience has been that you can avoid hearing people's shit opinions because they don't come up in the context of a medieval art, but if it ever does come up you may swiftly realize how many weirdos there are.

To give an example there are a few DSA types I know who are into it as a socially acceptable alternative to guns, and because they have mall cop syndrome and think knowing swordfighting makes them a badass. Also a lot of HEMA and LARP-type meetups (national ones) are hotbeds of degeneracy as bad as comic conventions.

I won't disagree with any of that. History fags are either some of the chillest and most well adjusted people ever or they're the biggest losers.

Those are the ones. You've also got "mojave red" "Uncle Cazador" who was ErikTheRed who reposted Punisher comics on /k/, that one black guy with a Galil whose trip I can't remember, some others.
Era of the unhelpful trips, they had gimmicks and that's about it.

ErikTheRed was cool, I enjoyed reading Punisher MAX on /k/. Any word on McNiggerator? I know he was at Bundy Ranch but after that he just kinda disappears.

 

[WhoBusTank69]

McNiggerator

That's the one, the black guy with the Galil. I think he's also on Tumblr but I can't confirm because people get banned and make new pages daily.

McNig was always great.

Now that the Washington standard mag ban passed I wonder if Paul Harrell or GarandThumb will comment or have to change their upcoming videos. They won't be able to review new guns with the proper mags (on camera).

I'm about 80 percent certain it was Mr. X9 who uploaded the Punisher Max Slavers arc but I could be wrong.

Last I checked Paul Harrell was in Oregon. Did they also pass a ban?
