What's the maximum amount of ammo a lever action rifle can hold?
Maybe 17 rounds or so if you get a tube one. The old style tube ones are loaded in a similar fashion to a musket lel. You have to actually take a ramrod out of it and put in bullets and ram them down. :lol:
Those weren't used anymore when the lever action came along. Instead, you'd have single loaders like the Sharps. Basically, you have the brass, load it with blackpowder, some felt or cloth and a greased lead projectile (balls or bullets) and et voila you've got a cartridge. Load it, put an igniter on the falling block and you're ready.
With skill, you can fire about ten shots a minute. A .52 calibre lead ball will fuck absolutely everyone's shit up. Too bad you won't get to shoot since you'll get rained down on from some dude using a Winchester. Much smaller calibre but the fire rate and the ability to load additional cartridges in between salvos means that you're not going to leave your cover anytime soon.

Still, you shouldn't make fun of those old rifles. My father has a Gallager carbine and let me tell you that the thing wrecks shit. If you get hit by a Winchester, you're hurt. That thing instead kills you. With the medical situation back then, you'd simply be fucked.

I'm talking about how you load, for example, a Henry rifle. There's a little included ramrod thing for you to ram the bullets down after you finish loading in all the cartridges.

The fuck are you talking about?


You put the cartridges into the magazine tube. Slamming them down isn't only not necessary, it's the absolutely last thing you want to do.

Is tictac thinking of that spring-loaded rod used with tube-fed .22s?
Is Spoony dead yet?

The Henry also has that, as you can see in the video up there.

Just got out of Infinity War. Spoilers ahead for anyone who cares
SpoilerShow
So first things first, this was originally announced as a two parter, with the second half coming out next year, but then they changed their minds and said now Avengers 4 will be a secret project. Turns out the secret is they lied, this ends right in the middle of the story with the bad guy winning and half the established cast, along with half of the population of earth, being killed. Except most of those characters, such as Spiderman and the Guardians of the Galaxy, are already confirmed to have sequels coming out either next year or 2020 so that's why I doubt it's over. But have no fear, because in the post credits sequence, just before he dies, Samuel L Jackson gets a message out to Captain Marvel, who will save the simple men with her womanly powers.

Not really sure how Bob will react to this, he'll probably insist Spiderman stay dead so they can bring in Miles Morales or comes back as Toby Maguire. But it's mostly big action scenes with tons of characters fighting faceless enemies you don't really need to give a shit about. Also, Thanos is on his side. See, Thanos in this movie comes from a planet that died from overpopulation and wants to wipe out half the population of the universe in order to ensure the survivors have plenty of resources. But Thanos believes in doing this randomly, which means some Wakandans, including Black Panther, got killed off too. So Bob'll be pissed about that but on board with the rest.

All in all, he'll probably give this a three stars and bitch that Spiderman didn't die at the beginning instead of the end.

That's a bit optimistic. He'll probably give it five stars and claim it to be on par with Citizen Kane or The Godfather. In fact, since it's in parts much like The Godfather, I predict a comparison

Imagine spending a billion US dollars to be a loser. Could've watched animu and be one for free.

I never watched Spongebob so I don't get the joke aside from a series of Blob tweets of him being a Nazi fuck.

He may have caught it at the same Bilderberg-Illuminati meeting as Prince Albert in a Can. I guess lizardmen aren't immune.
