[QUOTE=Appolox;19129679]I'm looking for some high quality Mateba Revolver pictures, anyone know a good source or a site? I've checked google images and few others but I need a pictures from all angles possible.[/QUOTE] Gunbroker auctions usually have tons of pics.

They sometimes mount miniature scopes and bipods and use them as sharpshooter weapons in tight urban environments.

Lol. Fucking french. Most SMGs could do the same job, only more efficiently.
I think the target that GIGN is aiming for is probably right across the street or something. So range in that setup probably isn't the issue, power and first shot accuracy would be as well as maneuverability are. That handgun can fit into cramped spaces and around odd angles where it would still be possible with a long gun but probably not as easy. If course that's my guess. They mostly use the MR73 as a sidearm. Those kinds of sniper pistol setups are probably not very common.

I enjoyed this thread very much. I learned something from facepunch. Now that's a first. Thanks OP
[QUOTE=Zatharon;19137270]Anyone had any experience with Del-Ton AR-15s? Picking up a Del-Ton stripped lower from a friend of mine then getting one of Del-Tons rifle kits, also gonna get a delicious chrome lined 1x7 16" barrel. [editline]08:51PM[/editline] also why the fuck are foregrips with rails so goddamn expensive? I can get one without rails for dirt cheap, but one with rails costs upwards of 150$?[/QUOTE] You get what you pay for... Just remember that. Foregrips are usually just plastic snapped on. Railed forends have to be screwed on and anchored, they're usually aluminum too. Go with troy or la rue for forends, don't go cheaper. Personally, I only run a light on the forend of my AR, so a railed forend is extra worthless weight. I just put a 5 slot rail section on my forend and that works great. DO NOT use that to mount a grip though.

[QUOTE=cathal6606;19153770]I have the a2 its fucking badass[/QUOTE] No you don't. The A2 was made after '86 so you do not have it. Sorry for bursting your bubble.
My folks bought me that absolutely amazing SKS for Christmas I mentioned earlier. I'll get some pics later this week. It's better than I thought. Apparently the black bolt means it was issued as some patriotic rifle back then. It's all matching too, right down to the gas piston. Going to shoot it this Sunday. It's one of the early models with the spring loaded firing pin, too.
Is a stungun or pepperspray a firearm? Probably not. Well anyway, I want both of them. Self defense of course. I think the former as pepperspray really fucks things up. Fire-arm. Something that fires. IE, rifel, etc

Got the .357 sig conversion in my platinum elite last night, and some speer gold dots to go along with it. [img]http://media.midwayusa.com/ProductImages/Large/450551.jpg[/img] (This is the USSS loading, by the way.) I'm a very happy camper. Damnit, why didn't this gun come in .357sig to begin with?
Nice. Why did you get hollow points? They're the cheapest type of rounds around where I live, but I could be wrong about your area..
[QUOTE=Glitch360;19202206]Nice. Why did you get hollow points? They're the cheapest type of rounds around where I live, but I could be wrong about your area..[/QUOTE] Excuse me? Those are $2 a round... It's what the secret service uses, specifically. Using a full metal jacket for personal protection is ridiculous. Not only does it severely lack stopping power but it over penetrates and puts innocent people at risk.
[QUOTE=zombiefreak;19190946]No you don't. The A2 was made after '86 so you do not have it. Sorry for bursting your bubble.[/QUOTE] Umm, Steyr made semi auto copies for a while, and there's a US company that makes them too. He could very easily have an A2, I'm thinking about buying one myself now that they're on sale.
Guns are so cool cos they kill people.

[QUOTE=cortzxxx;19203215]Guns are so cool cos they kill people.[/QUOTE] If every human on earth suddenly became bulletproof and more guns were legal, I'd buy guns for the same price as now, if not more (no risks of injury, who wouldn't want guns for fun then?)(also firefights as fun, no deaths, same action: FUCK YES). I want a firearm simply for target shooting and fun like that, the fact that they can kill is only useful for self defence, other than that it's a disadvantage.
gun threads are so easy to troll you all should know better
[QUOTE=Pvt. Ryan;19204651]gun threads are so easy to troll you all should know better[/QUOTE] FFFF. Well, anyways it's still my opinion on guns.

Not only does it severely lack stopping power but it over penetrates and puts innocent people at risk.[/QUOTE] Heh, here in Colorado they are pretty cheap; but I'm not sure about the cost of .357 HP rounds specifically. And yes, it is good for protection, but use of hollow, soft, and incendiary rounds was banned for military use during the *Hague* Convention.
My Christmas present after some assembly: [media]http://img163.imageshack.us/img163/89/k142085img0261.jpg[/media] It's survived over thirty years of being battered around by trainees, being cramped up in storage, intense fighting and finally being torch cut by the ATF after importation. It's my job to get it working again (within legal limits, anyway).

[QUOTE=zombiefreak;19206194]I believe he was talking about the fully automatic version though.[/QUOTE] Nowhere did he say it was full automatic.

i dont know i just googled "gun"
[QUOTE=mugofdoom;19206328]BB Guns are nice.[/QUOTE] Hah yeah, I don't know why I've seen that pistol at nearly ever store that sell bb guns, as the most expensive gun. It doesn't even need that shit.
We're talking about firearms here people, not guns.
