Oh, yeah. This thing weighs almost 40 pounds. It is massiveness personified.

Was this at C&T?

I have a definite case of Anti-tank rifle envy....

-Badger-

Its Black weapons arsenal, they built my suppressed 9mm ar15 sbr, still waiting on the atf. They are one of the newer stores in town.

Ah.

I miss the Arizona gun scene....

I haven't even been to a gun show in, what? Two years? More than that?

I just never think about it anymore.

Now, if I won the lottery...
Good times would be had, and much ammo would be fired.

And I would have my classic Thunderbird, god dammit!

Still need to come out for a visit- but no idea when I will have the time and money together.
That, and my current internship takes my weekends...

-Badger-

Fun! It's like a compact version of my big rifle.

And yeah, it's a shame that there's nowhere to rent a tank for a day or two that has really good insurance.

You can in China....

-Badger-

Maybe so, but owning firearms is a little harder there.

I totally want to shoot your gun.
I may be left-handed, but fuck it, I can change.

Just bought some incendiary ammo for it, five bucks a shot. Gonna start loading my own.

You're making me drool.
Shame I live so far away.

If you're going to load your own, take a look at the M48 Spotter-Tracer bullets. They were cheaper when I bought a box last time a couple years ago, but they have a pretty impressive result downrange without destroying steel targets.

That is exzctly the plan. Yesterday bought some ball, api and more incendiary stuff.

Bitchen Perfect for prairie dog hunting

For those little tanks the prarie dogs have been buildig of late

Heya Ahk, how have you been?

Work and such, built a fence around the neww pool with Shep, selling antiques and planning to start doing woodwork and set up a metal forge.

Wolf is still alive.

Check.

Still crazy overprepared for zombie apocalypse.

Check.

Building a forge? Interesting. Renfair swords or stuff that would actually see use?

To forge a mighty destiny!!!

I want to learn decorative ironwork as well as weaponcraft, you sell more towelrods than broad axes these days

Hm, depends on the market.

Theres currently a serious shortage of decent smiths and armourers in the SCA....But getting paid for work is not the easiest thing in the world.
(Use my old business model, copied from my Grandfather...Half up front thats not refundable..The rest due within 30 days of notice of completion of work.)


Theres a few specialists making money in the SCA, but you hear the "looking for used fill-in-the-blank" so often in the classifieds because most SCA people are cheap by nature.
(Many due to legitimately being poor...But some just because they play the "beat the price" game by reflex.)

I sell every knife I make these days, but I pace myself so I don't get burned out.

Of course theres now a million Pakistan, Chinese and Indian made weapons and shitty armor flooding the junk shops and online dealers, so a lot of folks seem to feel that getting it from a custom maker must automatically be cheaper than buying the import junk, (Because if they made it themselves it would be cheaper.. So getting someone else to do the work must be cheaper)...And they cling to this belief fanatically.

Of course, most of the time the materials alone would cost you almost as much or more than just buying the import piece...But some folks just got to convince themselves theres a cheaper way.


I should get back to my own smithing....I have a greathelm sitting in pieces that needs to be rivetted together.

Oh, and I found Noah Miller listed as one of the staff at an armoury here in socal.

I should contact him sometime and trade notes.


-Badger-

does that place carry any P-90?

Locally, I see the P90s at Diamondback Police Supply, though BWA could order one for you.

A friend of mine has a Boys ATR. It's a .55 projectile with a hell of a shell. It was literally apocalyptic to fire - shot out a muzzle flame that would make godzilla proud! (and every mosquito in 2 miles would wake up and home in on you...) A recoil you wouldn't wish on your worst enemy!

Glad you can haz a happy!

Brin saz hi! She'll be here in 3 weeks

A Britt who carried and used one in the second war said firing it was like getting hit with a board with a pipe stuck to it.

(in Swatrzeneggervoice)

"It's howwible!"

I still think Bruce Rowe should shift to Tucson

Should be good for laugh at the range!

Karno is going to need 6 pillows to brace against, with several mattresses behind him to roll into!

It's at times like these...when I hate you with all of my gunpowder-smoking little heart...

That's a serious toy, for serious boys.

Yer not dead, good. And I want one of those.

Nah, not dead. Last year was pretty busy and I just couldn't force myself to draw. Now that my drawing area in my studio is almost accessible I will try to draw again. I just stopped writing journals as I do not have an isp for my home computer, my only access is on my phone.

I can dig. Sounds pretty rough, good to hear from you though.

Epic

Oh that looks like a lot of fun to shoot.

Its big and loud, should be amusing.

does that thing qualify as a BFG

once the wet clears up a bit I need to go shooting again

It certainly qualifies as a BFG...

Big Boys, big Boys, what you gonna do...
- Shoot it, of course!

It's bigger than me!

Perhaps, but you are far cuter....

Not sure if I should report or not. >_<

Report what?

This image.

Do what you gotta do. Why are you looking at my scraps if what I share offends you? Notice I said share. No one is forcing anyone to visit my scraps.

I do a search every so often to see if anyone is violating the AUP, I usually report those I think violate it, but this one's a toughie.

Those weapons are manufactured items, yes?

Thats about 2/3s of the posters if that was the case. Not like he's posting images of cub art or photos of his bare ass for Christ sake.

Plus in scraps not like he's waving it under everybodies nose.

Yeah, I know. I can't catch them as they're uploaded, so I just do random searches. :V Doesn't mean they're not against the AUP (possibly) though. :/

I am curious, you just biased based on what the photo is of? Or you going to go after images of people and their cars, fursuits or vacation photos?

Well, there's a few things I look for when I do searches. "Is the photo rated above general"? Which it must be gated general, in the AUP. Then I just do searches with words that I'd consider commercial. Gun, weapon, car, computer, blah blah. I don't search for fursuits, usually, 'cause I don't know shit 'bout who makes them, and if they're mass produced, blah blah blah, especially since they're commissions.

Still, I've seen people post images of whatnot and unless its something really offensive or just flat out wrong (IE: somebodies dope stash) I usually blow it off.

Some people post certain things as art references for others to use or a particular pose with a item. Some post thing to get information on that others are more knowledgeable about and can help assist ID or translate.

I think you are more a wannabee Mod that has a personal bug about somebody posting images of guns or cars. Its not pornographic, not hurting anybody, not flaunting some political BS or vendetta.

You want to clean up some site, cruise Inkbunny.

I wish for people to follow the rules; I'm not so sure why it's hard for people to do such.

As per the argument of "there's worse on here", I report what I see. :/ If I see the worse, like that guy on Christmas who uploaded his dick as a general submission, then I'd report it. Assuming the mods missed it.

The picture is of him, he happens to be holding a rifle. That's why you're a wanna-be mod rather than an actual one.

Use your best judgement.

DEY GOT DAT DERE BIGASS BUBBA GUN FER DEM DERE SQUIRRELS DAY DEW!!!

Okay. Now I'll consider you an anti tank expert. IF a anti tank rifleman is facing a tank, and has only one clean shot, which to take out first? Tread, Engine, or turret?

These weapons were obsolete by the time the war broke out. Still there were points to attack, like vision slits and joits in moving parts. Tracks were also targets as you pointed out, but I think I would target crew in an ambush, or call in a an airstrike.......

MURICA!

Gotta love it!

greatest country ever

Its a shame that so few Americans believe that, we have so much potential, if we could just get the crap elements of our. Govt out and re ratify the constitution.....
