My usual process is high-grit sandpaper followed by a two stage buffing to take the wire edge off--gets it nice and shavey.

Interesting. I'll have to do research. Build up my skill set.

There are many ways to sharpen an edge and all of them work. It comes down to preference and a practiced hand.

@Vesdii easiest way to safely package a knife is to tape two pieces of cardboard together tightly and slide the blade in between like so.

Ugly but highly effective as a temporary sheath.

is this safe @Legalize ?

well?

No.

"Psychologically sound enough to deploy several times to fight the enemies the government wanted fought, but not sound enough to carry a weapon for protection here at home due to using prescribed meds from a government run healthcare system."

The whitman guy also had an m1 carbine

which could be 30 round detachable mags

i don't know shit about guns but that figure about the AR-15 doesn't even make sense. how can a semi-auto fire at a higher rate/minute than a full auto?
what is an "assault weapon"? can a baseball bat be considered an "assault weapon" if you use it as a weapon to assault someone?
lots of 🤔

Even if you illegally modified it to be full-auto, the cyclic rate of fire would be the same or lower than the actual M16. And then for all the previous weapons, they've used a measurement that seems to include the time it takes to reload, but went with theoretical maximum for the last 2

1,200 rounds/minute is 20 rounds/second. Is there a gun that can even fire 20 rounds/second?

A few, but that's insanely fast

i thot so

AR15 can't fire that fast for sure

you don't need to be a gun expert to know that figure is bullshit if you think of it for a couple of seconds

They don't actually know what any of those words mean, so it doesn't bother them any.

They know their target audience won't scrutinize it

surprised they didn't just use "Dead babies per minute"

Fucking Vox.
*The cops shot him dead within 30 seconds and just before he made it into the bar where hundreds of people would have been helpless targets, but AKTUALLY that's why they failed to save anyone*

I guess if you don't pre-emptively kill an assassin, it doesn't count

It’s funny how all these shootings keep happening in areas where people are mostly unarmed.

Every shooting is stopped by a good guy with a gun.

Or the perpetrator is later captured by good guys with guns.

But I don't think that sort of logic works on turning people around. They're more like Pandora, hopelessly trying to put human suffering back inside the box. If only we could just make gun technology go away.

Even if we could, you still can be killed by the sword. And unless you're trained to use a sword, it's pretty useless for slf defence.

But they think having less efficient weaponry will somehow reduce the suffering. That unarmed people would have a better chance against a sword than a gun.

They probably say that now, but then they will start coming for your knives.

Then spoons.

>not training with the blade

While you were out banging chicks...

I’m not reading all the text so this mighta been answered but is the AK47 a semi auto? Because you could argue that they were using the semi auto version of an AR but that doesn’t seem to be the point and I’m confused

Suppose it’s a bunch of phooey either way though

Assault rifles have full auto. Semi auto only versions exist of many rifles but they are not assault rifles

A real AK47 is full-auto and hasn't really been manufactured in decades, but most AK derivatives in civilian hands are semi-auto. In America, they tend to be WASR clones
