/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

I'm sorry man, but spent shells just look idiotic to me. I've been thinking about buying some equipment to pull the bullets and primers, then inserting the bullet again and just doing that for all 75 rounds. It's the only way to be sure.

>Open relationships are cool with me as long as everyone is happy

Open relationships aren't real relationships.

>>8333026
Was der Fick?!

>>8333074
The satisfaction of having your outfit completely done.

>Then there's the anxiousness of waiting for the con, but one thing at a time.

>I with you, Anon. Mad Max is a sacred part of our Aussie car culture. The thought of some lame kid who has never sat his arse in a Monaro or a Falcon, gearing up in a sad cosplay parody of Future Australia just to be cool at the next con is pretty piss weak. The Max Mad world is hard core so watching it be half arsed is pretty fucking sad.

I literally cannot tell if you're serious or not. This oozes satire.

>The older guys are already doing it since the 80's. They have the cars as their props, full outfits and meet once a year with their Blue Heelers for Burning Man style parties. But you'd already know that as you are such a fan.

Oh shit, someone who thinks Wasteland Weekend's obscure... I meant that at the specific con I'm going to, Road Warrior shit might not be common. I never said anything about Wasteland Weekend.

Plus, I really don't think too many people are going to be doing it. Not many kids, just older folks and middle-aged guys. But yeah, I hope there's not a bunch of cringey shit.

>Not doing Thunderdome
Hipster Trash.

I was going to, until I thought of all the problems a giant horse-hair mohawk might cause, and found something better instead. Don't really want to say it, in case someone's listening... lol.

I got into Max about five years ago. My friend found something about it and got obsessed with road warrior fashion, then wouldn't shut up about it. So, I watched the first movie. It was alright. Then the second. Blown away. Thunderdome. Loved it. Fury Road? Left some semen on the seat in front of mine. Saw the first showing (on the 14th), then watched it again the very next day.

>That extra weight is not going to be fun to lug around, and trust me every ounce matters.

It's too late for me.

>>8332060
>I should empty them out?

That's an issue with me too. You might also have to remove the primer (The little button that's on the bottom of the shell.)

That's the explosive part, in addition to dumping out the gunpowder. Remember to remove the gunpowder FIRST.

>it looks live

It is live, lol

I'll have to deactivate it manually. Can you reccomend any primer-removers?

>>8331729
That's pretty rad, man. Ever think about getting a real AR? Prices are the lowest they've ever been!

>I'm more of a AK guy, though.

Do you do S.T.A.L.K.E.R. cosplay?
>But yeah it's not a good idea to bring some live weapons to a con.

It's just bullets. No rifles or anything. Some foam LARP pipe is really my only weapon. I'm thinking about just getting a big thunderdome mohawk to kinda offset people's concerns. Like, so it's perfectly clear it's all for show.

>>8331703
That sounds like hell, man. I read those rules and just opted for a foam lead pipe instead. Whole rifle orange? Not on my watch.

>>8331688
>Fired shells
So shells that had already been shot? I'd be very surprised if that was an issue.

>>8331681
I don't have any weapons for my costume, why would I stop by the weapons check?

bumping with some sweet armor

>>8331669
It's for a PKM, a russian machine gun.

The only rifle I have that uses this ammo is bolt-action though. lol.

I bought the bandolier to sling across my jacket. As for what I actually do with my ammunition? I don't like hunting, so mostly just target practice at my range for fun.

>>8331664
>weapons

I see no weapons, retard.

Hey /cgl/. I'm doing a Fury Road cosplay, and part of my costume involves a PKM bandolier filled with 7.62x54r ammo. Looks pretty punk, man. Anyway, I can't find anything in the convention rules that (specifically) forbid it, and my state allows open carry (to which I am of age.) I'm not planning on acting intimidating or doing retard-tier-weeb stuff, just kinda chatting and hanging out with friends.

tl;dr

Can you use ammunition on a costume?

>Mfw I do the same with my body armor

Try having a friend hold on to it, if it's that important to you. Black bags work too, but as you said, you don't want it damaged, so yeah...

Good luck to you!

>so you stare at it forever, unable to write anything.

Thank god I thought I was the only one.

>>8275506
Do people really get angry if you don't recognize their cosplay but want a picture anyway? That seems a little strange to me.

>>8274800
>Please Dont believe everything you have read about me because its not all true

Is this a joke?

>>8275422
>not giving you a test to evaluate whether you'll try to show it off at a convention while dressed as Spike.

What is brandishing?
