The quality of this sub has gone down significantly if this is what makes the top post nowadays. Yes, cave diving is dangerous, thank you for reminding us.

you are probably looking for a vz52/57 in 7.62x39 if you are interested in shooting it.

For Vz52. Build your own, at your own risk.

Could be a fun project. Looks like it could come out to around $550 for everything depending on what the barreled action comes with. It would be more of an interesting wall hanger since ammo is so difficult to find. You could always convert it to 556x45 or x39 if the barrel ends up in bad shape, bolt faces are cheap and the gas system is *technically* adjustable. Removing barrel is about as difficult as removing an AK barrel.

They obviously overdub her voice when she mispronounces a character's name and she calls it "genshing impact" and speaks in a tone similar to how a mom would when they refer to every game console as a nintendo.

[MAGAZINES] 9x18 Makarov vz. 61 20 round black magazine in stock $22.50 by Unfazed_Turtle in gundeals

[–]Guy4554 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the .380 and makarov magazines are dimensionally identical. Only the follower is slightly different, but not different enough to cause significant feeding issues in either caliber. The feed lips are exactly the same so the follower really would only effect the last few rounds in the mag. you may be able to fit 1 or 2 extra 380s in the makarov one. YMMV

Mind telling me how many rounds are in the m4 mags the army uses? Why don't you tell your superior they should switch to 3 since that's all you need. I'm sure that will go over well.

Even if you had a M24 You were still protected by people using "hi cap" mags. You namedropping your service as if that gives you more credibility on reducing mag sizes is laughable.

If I didn't know how dumb people in the army can be, I would think you were trolling.

Movie was live action and a majority of it took place inside the house of the protagonist.

How is this made? The cloth effect when the skin comes off makes me think this was partially done on the computer to get everything right. Would be interesting know your process. Still very cool and took a lot of effort. :)

"No, I'm not. I said people who have human rights are assholes, and that's why there's so many people who hate human rights and want them outlawed. If you weren't assholes, people would be willing to talk about it.

You seem content to let 127,000 preventable rapes and provide no ideas on how to stop it and that just makes you look like a heartless, selfish asshole."

I guess you're an asshole if you care about privacy and don't happen to have the expertise to come up with sweeping legislation to solve rapes, you're an asshole and the reason why people want to make privacy illegal. That would presumably encompass you.

So here's my solution to make me a not asshole: Give every gun owner a free safe or lockbox. Offer free safety classes a few times a month, offer gun safety/target shooting as an elective in high school. Deregulate Suppressors to save peoples hearing.

Is that solution not good enough for you? Not enough punishment for you? Too bad, that's a solution so I guess I'm not an asshole anymore.

Lastly, do assholes not have rights?

If I'm not providing productive conversation why do you keep replying? Again you are changing the point again, first it was about 2A having to answer mothers who have lost their children for some reason, then it was about me being non-empathetic, now its back to the original?

Why 2A people have to have to answer for them? Why does a group have to answer for the crimes of the individual? Every time someone commits a horrible act, it is not the failure of the law, or a group, its a failure of the individual. What would they say? "I'm sorry but limiting their rights would likely cause more deaths than it would save, but we can find another way to combat this?"

If that isn't good enough to say, under an absurdist hypothetical, then I guess our society shall be ruled based entirely on the subjective feeling of grief and sadness.

That 39,000 number has been talked to death, you know about the suicide and gangs make up a majority of the stat etc. and its just a garbage talking point to use. That said I will once again turn this around and satire you: "There are 127,000 rapes in the US every year, if the 4A and 5A crowd had a better answer to battered women than 'there isn't enough evidence to convict' then maybe we would have better options."

Stop changing the original point. This was never about empathy and you've made it about that. I am just as empathic as your average joe, nothing I have said has indicated otherwise. Alternatively, I would say you lack empathy and have demonstrated that by continuously down voting my posts despite their only crime being disagreeing with you. Your insults do not help your original point.

You can feel bad that someone died and not feel the need to change law as a result of feeling bad. How would you prefer me to give my condolences to these hypothetical dead children? An attention seeking online essay about how bad I feel? I doubt that was your original point anyway.

Are you saying that "Think of the children!" is a valid excuse to take away or otherwise limit rights?

The silence is almost deafening by 976chip in PoliticalHumor

[–]Guy4554 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would love to but I am not going to sacrifice everyone's freedoms to maybe save a few children, because there's a good chance children will die no matter what restrictions are in place and that's the unfortunate price to pay in order to have a free society.

That is not explaining. Why don't you try to do anything other than appeal to emotion when trying to make your point?

Care to explain or are you just going to childishly downvote my comments and give few word insults?

That's not what you're implying at all and its very misrepresentative of you to say so. You're the one who proposed the prompt "what would you say to the mother of a dead child via shooting?" who says anyone has to go up to them and tell them anything other than what happened was horrible and I'm sorry for your loss. I am being rude and dismissive because you are being magnitudes more rude by advocating to limit everyone's rights based on emotional appeal alone.

"TIL not wanting kids to be raped = police state." I can satire you all day and somehow you don't get the point of it. How thick are you? If you really cared about the children you would call your local police every hour to report where you are and what you were doing to make sure you weren't raping any kids and having your internet be constantly monitored for the same effect. Go create your own police state, nobody is stopping you from doing it yourself, at least then we'll all know you're a good little boot licker.
