Gun Freedums: Do they really matter that much?

[Georges]

- a hunting bow, airsoft gun, or BB gun will do.

what's funny about that
people hunt with bows and clay pigeons don't care if it's a bullet or BB

It's like telling a car guy he should only drive electric cars

You don't need a motocross bike, a mountain bike will do just fine.

A lot of the fun is the destruction of the object. It's not very fun to shoot a bb gun and all you get is a "pop...tink"
They're good for practicing your aim but not much more. Shooting soda cans gets boring fast.

If I had a daily concealed carry I'd probably just get a little .380 and get a case that makes it less obvious.

Yeah I'm planning on getting a .38 special snubnose revolver, nothing too fancy or expensive. Just something to protect myself with.

The biggest thing about carrying a firearm for self defense it to not be a hero. If you pull a gun, that's immediate escalation to a life-threatening response. Once that gun is pulled, you have to be prepared to shoot, otherwise the response will be as threatening. Most seminars and courses will instruct you to only pull a weapon if you feel your life is in danger and ONLY your life. Trying to play hero is going to end up with either you being shot, an innocent person being shot or unnecessary escalation of a nonviolent crime.

I care if it's a bb and not a bullet. IDK if you've ever shot a real gun but there is a massive difference. And guns are a lot more fun to shoot recreationally than any bow or bb gun.

I dunno about you guys, but my snake is big enough that I don't need compensation.

But the laws of manliness indicates that someone who fires a gun has a longer willy than someone who doesn't

It's an American right to compensate for the size of your snake

f-class shooting competitions with a bb-gun sounds dumb

[Decepticon]

as someone who lives where it'll take around 25-30 minutes for any form of law enforcement to get here yeah i'd like to keep my guns thanks

i can assure you a lot of people who sports/recreational activity with firearms aren't going to favor switching over to BB guns or bows

While a revolver is the most reliable I'd personally go with a semi auto solely for its slimmer design still knowing that compact pistols are even more likely to jam.

[Zloff]

external-hammer semi-auto ftw

mag-fed is a big bonus as well because


is a lot easier to both carry and load than


you ultimately only need one round to do the job if you place your shot right, but hey, what if the first 5 either miss or hit but don't succeed in neutralizing the target? you never know

[The Resonte!]

Along with that, Self Deletes make up a staggering part of annual gun violence.

i've heard of this

i'm not compensating for anything...
