You may have seen these; back when 8ch/k had to flee to the cafe, I would post questions about cerakoting, building an AR in nonstandard (to them) calibers, and post in-progress images such as the wooden furniture and position it over the 9mm rifle barrel. I had bought that furniture for my Deadshot rifle but it wouldn't fit over the 24" grendel barrel so I had to do something else.

My *intent* had been to make Remedy's rifle in 7.62x39 so I could build an AK and not have two new calibers just because I had two rifles. In-universe, the explanation would be simple: Remedy thought that the solution to war was communication, so she commissioned all her rifles in the enemy's caliber so the nation would need to maintain trade relations even in the rising tensions.

Wasn't that kind of how the war started in the first place? No one said Ponies learned the mistakes of their past...

Calamity, known for tack-driving shots at incredible range, would need a caliber suitable, and in the AR-15 size intermediate range, that called for a longer bullet, and the 224 Valkyrie wasn't out yet, so the grendel seemed the logical choice.

Have I mentioned I'm a poorfag? These builds took a *LONG* time to finish. But I bought an air compressor, a set of five tester-colors, and painted up the carbine, then later realized that of side-charging uppers, most manufacturers made one assumption, the place I bought my carrier from made the other, so I lost a couple charging handles before that got sorted out. It's fine, now Deadshot has the ultra-heavy upper to go with the choice side-charging carrier, and I don't hammer my charging handle into my upper's charge slot anymore.

I want a 1911 in 10mm.
Have I mentioned I'm poor?
And building a 1911 from a frame-blank requires a fair amount of manufacturing prowess as the parts are all a bit oversized so you can hone them down to "just right" so as to increase accuracy.

So my pistols are glockalikes, and they're okay in that they usually fire when you pull the trigger, and usually cycle if the brass was cleaned (on the outside) before loading.
Usually. I'm planning on building a P320 next.
When I'm less poor.

What have YOU built yourself, anon?

Self sufficiency is inherently political. Learning to make your own stuff is just as much a part of being a real man as learning to defend yourself.

I'm going to agree with this. (Don't know if my ID will change but I'm OP, glad to meet you)

The state I live in has outlawed:
the AR platform in its entirety,
barrels with threads,
things that screw onto threaded barrels,
integrated cuts into replacement barrels to mimic the anti-muzzle-jump of those pesky barrel accelerators, above.

Working with a hacksaw, dremel, and the occasional drill press or lathe is exactly the solution to the problem. And while the details of what you build might fall into /cyb/ (Gentoo user here; have you installed libudevzero yet?) the ponies that need to build, need to build because their overlords wouldn't like it if they built.

Fug, what state are you in? Even California allows for the AR platform, though I think certain rifles are banned by its marketing name.

30mm should be the gun of the land.

I'll add to this further. You should learn to become self sufficient and build your own stuff for the same reason as self defense. When you can build and repair your own stuff you have leverage over people who want you to depend on them for goods and services so you can negotiate from a better position. Much like you can negotiate from a better position if you can defend yourself from a tyrant who would try harm you.

Also gun control stops making sense when anyone can make a gun. Owning a 3d printer and other tools is every bit as important as owning a gun which is why the left is trying to restrict them.

It would have to be John Moses Browning. So many successful designs that have shaped the course of firearms forever. That, and I share similar a heritage, being a descendant of the same Latter-day Saint tradition.

Kalashnikov of course.
Everybody was shitting on his rifle because the tolerances were so loose, but he perfectly knew what it was about all along. The gun would function under any climate condition, without cleaning and minimal maintenance, every single time. This is very important if you have to hide weapons by bury them for many years.
So many wars and millions of corpses proved him right.

I'd agree. Kalashnikov solved practical problems, like "my ammo supply yields wild Q/A oversight" or "Cleaning kit? Dog ate cleaning kit!"

You can always shoot a Kalashnikov. Of course with a Browning you can be pretty sure of hitting your target but sometimes that's up for debate.

The other two are great for things, at times, but to burn up your chance at necromancy to build the next rifle that poops where it eats and and bounces its tiny projectiles off the vegetation? Nah.

*granted I understand Stone wanted a .308 and some ninny in the army wanted to intepret "between 6 and 7 millimetres" as "buy my cousins .223 supply!" so it's timing, not Stoner but *still*!

Thoughts on 1inch calibre hybrid-gyrojet gun? Use some double base powder to throw a 150gram gyrojet out the barrel perhaps 1200fps, the letting an optimised rocket system (like what Backyard Ballistics used to do before YT censored him) about double the speed.
Keeps the recoil down but gives an absurd caliber. 1.00 cal.

It is 400m/seg or Match 1,3.
It would be interesting to know how many Joules the projectile has at a given distance.

Desired muzzle velocity depends on delta v the rocket motor can provide for a heavy projectile (i dont want to be firing a cokecan). After the burn the final velocity should aim to be around 900m/s. Just going off of gyrojets, that’d need half speed from the original propellant charge.
