Hey /k/. Why can't some middle ground be reached on gun control? I'm not saying give up your second amendment but is having more in depth background checks really that bad?

Hey, /k/.

I hope you guys can help me out, my Mother is moving into an apartment (dad passed away a few years ago, and I'm at college in a different state), and she's pretty nervous about being alone and all that, and she's interested in getting a weapon for personal defense.

She's never had a gun before, and I'm not sure how to advise her on the matter, so I'm coming to you guys for help.

Tl;Dr - first time gunz for lady for personal defense, please help.

If it makes any difference, she's in North Carolina.

Thanks for your help, /k/angaroos

What kind of animal made these tracks? Brooklyn btw. Doesn't look like racoon.

Do the mods hate movies or something?

School me on plate carriers /k/

Is this sword legit, or just some sci-fi bullshit?

I'd like to start a thread about how to get guns that are tough, but not impossible to own.
For me I want a Sphinx in 10mm. I know Kriss was the last importer, but from what I understand they aren't importing them into the U.S. anymore.
Do I need to find a special FFL dealer to import one? Or am I just stuck trying to find a used one?
Pic semi-related.

I have the opportunity to go whitetail hunting for the first time next season, and that means its new rifle time!

Currently I'm looking at bolt action box fed rifles in .308, like the Ruger American. I'm open to all options however.

I'll be hunting in the Wisconsin north woods. No long distance shots, and lots of branches, so I'd prefer a shorter barrel and low weight. My budget is approx. $500 for the rifle alone. I'll get glass separately.

Your suggestions, gentlemen?
