He should weigh the odds of him shooting himself against the odds of him needing a firearm for self defense and go from there.

Well as he said his spouse is an immigrant so clearly she needs a gun for when the ICE deportation militia rolls up. Clearly this is a genuine fear and not a symptom of paranoid delusion on her part. Don't worry though, pepper spray and a taser will definitely suffice to prevent these raids on their home. And she'll call 911 and the cops will come...and uh shit.
 
Well, with a bit of luck I'll have enough money saved up with my next paycheck to order my next sound suppressor and pay for the tax stamp. It'll be my second can, and I'm going to get a .45 cal can. I'm probably going to go with the SilencerCo Hybrid 46 M since it's modular and can be configured for either pistol or rifle use. Mostly it's for my H&K Mark 23, but I'd like to get one of the new Marlin 1895s in .45-70 Govt and like that I can mount the Hybrid 46 M on it as well. I was originally going to go with the Osprey 45, but it's not as flexible.

Brice posted on a VSS hes working on (not his) and the 3rd image makes me want to cry.

He didn't even strip the finish on it, he can blend all he wants but I don't think we're passing xray with this bros.... Especially since it didn't fully penetrate..... After seeing this I have nothing but high expectations for his own product that costs 6500. I want to say I can't believe he posted this shit but god damn bro.
As I was about to post this, someone asked about the weld quality and this was his response.

What a fucking retard.

At this point there'd probably a better safety record if I designed and machined (as a horologist whose never made a firearm) an VSK-94 from scratch native to .300 blackout without looking at the 9x39 drawings, having our resident Mormon @WelperHelper99 slap wields on the supressor/reciever while shitposting, and having random 4channers 3d print me the polymers.

Too bad my lathe maxes out at <120mm between beds and I can't afford a UWG 2 lmao.

G43 on Empire arms, 4.25k USD that just sold. Between this late 44' manufacture and the hack job VSS, which one do you bet on not blowing your hands off with? My bet's on the G43.

I've always been kinda skeeved out by welded de-mil'd guns, especially rifles because of the higher chamber pressures and stronger forces at play compared to a pistol caliber platform. And that goes double for rifles/MGs that use stamped or extruded metal receivers instead of machined metal since you're dealing with less/thinner materials. I know it's probably irrational and welded rebuilds done by a competent welder are probably fine, but I would always feel like "Am I going to have a Kentucky Ballistics Fifty Cal moment when I pull this trigger?" if I were about to shoot one.

Bro I saw that weld. ROFL. Again I'd change the process entirely since I'm bad at TIG, unlike that guy that decided to brute force it. And for the love of all that is holy, grind that finish off.

Also nice G43

There's always going to be that worry, but if it's to do with re-mil'd guns it should also be present with factory guns. It's not always going to blow on the first overpressure/proof loading. Fatigue will set in. The overall design, not the material, is what your safety relies upon and having redundancies will protect you as best it can. Better to explode forward or to the sides than to the rear, and the AK layout(by extention the VSS/VAL) is pretty good about that.

I wonder what the cyclic rate is on that thing, and am kind of impressed it held together.

pistols can handle automatic fire easily enough, nearly all of them had full auto models on offer at one point or another from the 1911 to the Glock. its just that outside of a telephone booth its basically useless and by the time of the MP5's generation of SMGs which could be easily concealed under a suit jacket, they were obsolete.
 
So my A300 showed up, and while I like my Mossberg 930, holy shit the fit and finish difference between it and the Beretta is insane.

Not sure if that red dot is going to stay there or get replaced with a more typical pistol dot instead.
